Five samples of the ternary alloy Ge-S-Cd were created using the melting point method, and the effects of partially substituting cadmium for germanium were determined. and partial substitution of germanium by cadmium was used to study the change in electrical conductivity. Electrical experiments were performed on Ge35-xS65Cdxternary alloy with x = 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20. It was discovered that the conductivity (σdc) rises with rising temperature in all samples under experiment. This confirms that the samples have semiconductor behavior. It has been observed that there are three regions of electrical conductivity in the electrical conductivity curve at low, moderate, and high temperatures. The preexponential elements and effective energies of each of the three conduction regions were calculated for each of the Cadmium values. It was found that all of them were impacted by a rise in the value of cadmium in the ingot. A numerical analysis of the conductivity equation was also performed to calculate the energy of the expanding states' density in local states and at the Fermi level. It has been observed that all of the values of samples change with the rising value of cadmium concentration.

The attached Cyanophyta community is a model for monitoring aquatic systems and interpreting environmental change in aquatic systems. The present study aims to conduct a seasonal study on Cyanophyta attached to the concrete abutments of three bridges (Al-Jadriya Bridge, Bab Al-Moadam Bridge, and Al-Muthanna Bridge) in the Tigris River within the city of Baghdad, central Iraq (from October 2021 to June 2022). The study included the quality of Cyanophyta and, the eleven environmental parameters (water temperature, electric conductivity, salinity, pH, total alkalinity, Calcium, Magnesium, dissolved oxygen, total dissolved solids, total phosphorus, and total nitrogen). Monthly samples were taken from the water under each bridge from three sampling sites in the river, and the results were presented as four seasons. A total of 45 Cyanophyta taxa were identified in the three orders. Order: Chroococcales 11%; Order: Oscillatoriales 64%; Order: Nostocales 25% dominance of Oscillatoriales from the second site, and the highest number of species recorded in the autumn. The study showed clear differences in the total number of algal species attached to different sites. The study was able to add a new record species to the Iraqi algae flora, which is Lyngbya sordida Gomont.

Synthesis of new ligand, namely [bis(2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl) hydrogen borate] (BIB), utilizing the reaction of metronidazole with boric acid in mole ratio (2:1), as well as the metal complexes with [Ni(II) and Cu(II)], were synthesized. All synthesized compounds were characterized by utilizing spectroscopic techniques such as FTIR, 1H-NMR, thermal analysis (T.G., UV-Vis), and atomic absorption (A.A.S.), as well as micro elemental analysis (C.H.N.), melting point (m.p), magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, and chloride content measurements. All complexes were paramagnetic, and the electrolyte and the suggested geometries were tetrahedral for nickel and octahedral for copper. In addition, all the transition metal complexes produced were shown to be antibacterial and antifungal against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and the fungus Candida. Also, metronidazole and the ligand were evaluated as anticancer agents against human breast cancer (MCF-7). The results showed that ligand was more active as an anticancer than metronidazole.

Polyimides are widely used in high-temperature plastics, adhesives, dielectrics, photoresists, nonlinear optical materials, separation membrane materials, and Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films. They are commonly regarded as the most heat-resistant polymers. This work involved the synthesis of a new bismaleimide homopolymer and copolymer by performing many steps. The synthesis of compound (1) (bis [4-(amino phenyl) Schiff base] tolidine) via condensation of o-tolidine with two moles of 4-aminoacetophenone. Secondly, compound (1) was combined with maleic anhydride to form compound (2) (4, 4ˉ-bis[4-(N-maleamic acid) phenyl Schiff base] toluidine). Thirdly, a dehydration reaction was carried out affording compound (3) (4,4ˉ-bis [4-(N-maleimidyl) phenyl Schiff base] toluidine). Compound (3) represents the new vinylic monomer, which was successfully introduced in addition to homopolymerization and copolymerization with selected vinylic monomers, affording homopolymer (4) and copolymers (5, 6), respectively. The new homopolymer and copolymers showed good fusibility and solubility in many organic solvents, leading to easy processing and expected to serve a broad spectrum of applications.

The research study included the synthesis of a new series of heterocyclic derivatives containing the antibiotic Levofloxacin. The first way provides for the reaction of Levofloxacin with thionyl chloride in benzene as a solvent to give an acid chloride derivative. A new class of acid hydrazide synthesized from Levofloxacin was studied. Schiff bases were produced via the reaction of acid hydrazide with substituted aromatic ketones in methanol. The next stage involved the response of Schiff bases with thioglycolic acid and mono chloroacetic acid in DMF to produce derivatives of the antibiotic levofloxacin that have five heterocyclic members, including the derivatives thiazolidine-4-one and oxazolidine-5-one. The FTIR, 1HNMR, and 13CNMR spectra methods were used to confirm the structures of newly synthesized compounds. Also, the antioxidant properties of the synthetic compounds were evaluated in vitro. According to this study, levofloxacin-derived compounds have higher antioxidant capacities than ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and the medication also acts as an anti-inflammatory for respiratory infections.

Glutathione is water-soluble with a low molecular weight and is commonly spread in plants. It is a co-factor in several biochemical reactions and acts together with signaling molecules and hormones, and its redox state activates signal transduction. The experiment was conducted in the botanical garden, Department of Biology, College of Education for Pure Sciences, Ibn Al- Haitham, University of Baghdad, during the growing season 2020-2021 to evaluate the potential effects of foliar spraying with (25, 50, 75 mg.L-1) glutathione in addition to the control (0) on the growth of chickpea plants subjected to sodium chloride salt (100, 200 mM.L-1) addition to the control (0). The results point out that salinity clearly decreased, as did plant height, branch number, shoot dry weight, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium concentration, protein percentage, and increased sodium concentration in chickpea plants. A foliar spray of Glutathione, notably 50 and 75 mg.L-1, enhanced the tolerance of chickpea plants by improving growth traits.

In the present study, the physical characteristics of elastomer (EL) blend with natural polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), Dexrin (D), Arabic gum (AG), and corn starch (CS) based on high-density fiberboard wood adhesives were investigated. The EL blends were prepared by dissolving AG, D, PVA, and CS in deionized water at 70 °C for 1 h under magnetic stirring continuously until the solution was clear, and blends were made with a weight of 60/40 (w/w); then were cast into a mold with a 20 cm diameter and left at room temperature for 24 h to ensure complete water removal and drying of the samples. The prepared EL and EL blend structures, adhesion strengths, roughness, wettings, and dielectric strengths, were investigated. The modified EL blend reveals a 144 MPa for pull-off strength and 770.8 N for shear strength for high-density fiberboard (HDF) wood as a substrate to the EL/AG, respectively. The surface roughness and contact angle of the EL/PVA mixture were found to be high, measuring 4.57 µm for roughness and shows the water contact angles for the samples. An increase in the contact angle of the El/AG blend where reached to(83.94˚) was observed due to the decrease in the –COOH and OH groups present in the backbone of the arabic gum. The greatest dielectric strength for EL/AG was reported to be 18.62 kV/mm at 0.5 kV/s and 22.77 kV/mm at 5 kV/s.and optical microscoby image for break down region was shown the carbonization in the break down point as aresult of carashing polymers chains, also micro cracks occuring forspecimens and this cracks extends directly from the breakdown region
本研究调查了基于高密度纤维板木材粘合剂的弹性体（EL）与聚乙烯醇（PVA）、Dexrin（D）、阿拉伯树胶（AG）和玉米淀粉（CS）等天然聚合物共混物的物理特性。制备 EL 混合物的方法是将 AG、D、PVA 和 CS 溶于 70 °C 的去离子水中，在磁力搅拌下持续搅拌 1 小时直至溶液变清，并以 60/40 的重量比（w/w）制成混合物；然后将其浇注到直径为 20 cm 的模具中，并在室温下放置 24 小时以确保样品完全脱水和干燥。对制备的 EL 和 EL 混合物的结构、粘附强度、粗糙度、润湿性和介电强度进行了研究。改性 EL 混合物在作为 EL/AG 基质的高密度纤维板（HDF）木材上的拉拔强度为 144 兆帕，剪切强度为 770.8 牛顿。发现 EL/PVA 混合物的表面粗糙度和接触角都很高，粗糙度为 4.57 µm，并显示了样品的水接触角。由于阿拉伯树胶骨架中的 -COOH 和 OH 基团减少，El/AG 混合物的接触角增大，达到 83.94˚。在 0.5 kV/s 和 5 kV/s 时，EL/AG 的最大介电强度分别为 18.62 kV/mm 和 22.77 kV/mm。分解区域的光学显微镜图像显示，由于聚合物链的碰撞，分解点出现了碳化现象，试样也出现了微裂纹，这种裂纹直接从分解区域延伸出来。

Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme rich in cysteine proteases, extracted from the stem and fruit of pineapple (Ananas comosus). There are several therapeutic applications of the bromelain enzyme, where it has anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and antimicrobial activity, reduces joint pain, and accelerates wound healing. In the current study, bromelain enzyme was loaded on silver nanoparticles (Br-AgNPs) prepared using the citrate-reduction Turkevich method. Different characterization analyses were performed, including UV-Vis spectrophotometers, FTIR, SEM, and XRD analyses. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of prepared Br-AgNPs was evaluated by DPPH assay. The results of UV-Vis showed a peak at 434 nm, which referred to the AgNPs formation, and FTIR results revealed groups of (C=O, C=C) at 1519.91 and 1539.20, respectively, and the amine group at 1384.89 and the flavonoids group at 1357.89. SEM results exhibit that the synthesized Br-AgNPs were spherical in shape, with average sizes of about 84.73 nm. Also, the AgNPs were crystalline in nature with face-centered cubic symmetry. The synthesized BR-AgNPs showed strong in vitro antioxidant activity in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, successfully synthesized silver nanoparticles and bromelain had a potent antioxidant effect and may be a possible therapeutic agent for many diseases in the future.
