استشعار النصاب (Quorum sensing, QS) هو آلية معروفة تستخدمها جراثيم عديدة للسيطرة على عوامل الضراوة الهامة من خلال الإنتاج والاستجابة اللاحقة ل .)N-acylhomoserine (AHLs جرى تسجيل تثبيط استشعار النصاب (QSI) ، الذي يستهدف الإشارات المعتمدة على AHL، كاستراتيجية للسيطرة على الأمراضية الجرثومية. وبالتالي، تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى البحث عن قدرة جرثومة الزائفة الزنجارية كمؤشر للفحص السريع عن QSI المحتمل المتسبب عن المستخلصات النباتية على أساس تثبيط الصبغة. استخدمت أربع مستخلصات نباتية كحولية بضمنها: براعم زهور القرنفل المجففة ( Syzygium aromaticum L)، لحاء القرفة (Cinnamomum cassia L)، أوراق المورينجا (Moringa oleifera Lam)، والقطب (Tribulus terrestris L) وجرى مقارنة قابيلتها على التثبيط QSI)) مع الفيورانون. استخدمت طريقة الانتشار في حفر الهلام، إذ جري تلقيح عزلة الزائفة الزنجارية على وسط الهلام الخاص بـها الذي احتوى على حفر بحجم 8 ملم لتحميل تراكيز مختلفة من المستخلصات النباتية فضلا عن الفيورانون أو محلول الفوسفات الداريء (سيطرة سالبة). أظهرت النتائج نجاح الفيورانون في تثبيط صبغة البايوسيانين للزوائف الزنجارية دون التداخل مع النمو الجرثومي، وهذا يؤكد قدرة هذه العزلة الجرثومية كمؤشر فعال يستدل من خلاله على وجود QS. الأهم من ذلك، سبب مستخلص القرنفل بتراكيز مختلفة في تثبيط تام لصبغة البايوسيانين مع تأثير ضئيل على النمو الجرثومي. عند استخدام القرفة، أظهرت التراكيز العالية فقط تثبي ًطا واض ًحا لصبغة العزلة المستخدمة. تسببت المورينغا أي ًضا في درجة معينة من تثبيط الصبغة ولكن بتراكيز عالية فقط. وعلى العكس من ذلك، لم يؤثر القطب على إنتاج البيوسيانين ولا على الحيوية الجرثومية. يستنتج من هذه الدراسة نجاح عزلة الزائفة الزنجارية المنتجة للبايوسيانين في فحص مثبطات QS. توصي هذه الدراسة البسيطة باستخدام مثل هذه العزلة ككاشف عن QSI دون الاعتماد على استيراد سلالات معينة من جراثيم Chromobacterium violaceum أو Pseudomonas aureofaciens أو Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
The current study aims to identify:The meta-motivation and Uniqueness seeking of the study sample. The correlated relationship among them. The present study sample consists of (400) students from the colleges of engineering, University of Baghdad, and the University of Technology in the academic year (2019-2020), and the researcher has adopted the Chen Scale (1995)to measure the meta-motivation after its translation into Arabic by(Al-Samawi,2011).The scale includes six dimensions. The researcher has also adopted the Snyder&Fromkin scale (1980) to measure the uniqueness seeking after translating and adapting it into the Arabic environment. The scale consists of three dimensions. The results show that students of the Facult

- Is there cultural intelligence of the preparatory school students?
- Is there any statistically significant differences according to gender and specification variables?
- Is there a scale more effective than cultural intelligence scales?
The stratified random sampling method is used to for selecting the sample of (216) students of scientific and humanistic specifications from

The speech is about the most critical health issue in the world, COVID-19 outbreak. A descriptive qualitative study was conducted by observing the first speech delivered by president Trump concerning coronavirus outbreak and surveying the illocutionary acts: directive, declarative, commissive, expressive, and representative. Searle's (1985) classification of illocutionary speech acts is adopted in the analysis.
What are the main types of the illocutionary speech acts performed by Trump in his speech?; Why does

Early detection through promoting public awareness is one of the promising tools in its control. Objectives: To evaluate the baseline needs for breast cancer awareness in Iraq through exploring level of knowledge, beliefs and behavior towards the disease and highlighting barriers to screening among a sample of Iraqi women complaining of breast cancer. Methodology: Two-hundred samples were enrolled in this study; gathered from the National
For criminal investigations, fingerprints remain the most reliable form of personal identification despite developments in other fields like DNA profiling. The objective of this work is to compare the performance of both commercial charcoal and activated carbon powder derived from the Alhagi plant to reveal latent fingerprints from different non-porous surfaces (cardboard, plain glass, aluminum foil sheet, China Dish, Plastic, and Switch). The effect of three variables on activated carbon production was investigated. These variables were the impregnation ratio (the weight ratio of KOH: dried raw material), the activation temperature, and the activation time. The effect factors were investigated using Central Composite Design

Show MoreUrban agriculture is one of the important urban uses of land in cities since the inception of cities and civilizations, but the great expansion of cities in the world during the twentieth century and the beginning of the twentieth century and the increase in the number of urban residents compared to the rural population has led to a decline in this use in favor of other uses.
This decline in agricultural and green land areas in cities has negatively affected the environment, natural life and biological diversity in cities in addition to the great impact on the climate and the increase in temperatures and the negative impact on the economic side, since urban agriculture is an important pillar of the economy, especially

Show MoreThe monitoring weld quality is increasingly important because great financial savings are possible because of it, and this especially happens in manufacturing where defective welds lead to losses in production and necessitate time consuming and expensive repair. This research deals with the monitoring and controllability of the fusion arc welding process using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model. The effect of weld parameters on the weld quality was studied by implementing the experimental results obtained from welding a non-Galvanized steel plate ASTM BN 1323 of 6 mm thickness in different weld parameters (current, voltage, and travel speed) monitored by electronic systems that are followed by destructive (Tensile and Bending) and non

The aim of this research is to detect the area of a tumor in a stomach images based on fuzzy clustering. The proposed methodology consists of three stages. The stomach images are divided into four quarters and then features elicited from each quarter in the first stage by utilizing seven moments invariant. Fuzzy C-Mean clustering (FCM) was employed in the second stage for each quarter to collect the features of each quarter into clusters. Manhattan distance was calculated in the third stage among all clusters' centers in all quarters to disclosure of t
