The fungus Paramyrothecium roridum (Tode) L. Lombard and Cross, previously known as Myrothecium roridum Tode ex Fries, belong to the family Stachybotriaceae and are species of Myrothecium distributed worldwide in soil and decaying plant tissues as saprophytic fungi or pathogens on diverse hosts. The morphology of the asexual morph, particularly the characteristics of conidia and conidiophores, was previously used to classify species in this genus because few features distinguish species within a genus, and morphology-based identification alone is inaccurate; consequently, DNA sequence data are useful for identifying species. Fungal isolation was identified according to morphological characteristics. In Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) culture, the olive-green conidia were 6-6.5 μm long × 2.3 μm wide, and cylindrical with rounded ends. Conidia formed dark green to black masses on sessile sporodochia in concentric zones, as well as identified based on a molecular approach using a polymerase chain reaction assay (PCR) of internal transcribed spacer (ITS1 5.8S ITS2) of the rDNA to confirm the Paramyrothecium roridum using primers (ITS1 and ITS4). The produced band size was 600 bp. The nucleotide sequences of the amplification products were analyzed, and the results confirmed the diagnosis of Paramyrothecium roridum. As a result, the isolate Paramyrothecium roridum was recorded as a JFF22 isolate in the National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) for the first time in Iraq. © 2024, Society of Pathological Biochemistry and Hematology.

The research was conducted in the laboratories of the Agricultural Technical College/Mosul during the period from October 2022-2023. The aim was to produce biofuel from Maize and Sorghum using Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. The research included collecting plant parts of fruits, grains, and leaves, transferring them to the laboratory, and storing them in sterile nylon bags. The treatments were divided into 18 fermentation treatments to carry out fermentation processes by adding a solution of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with percentages of 1%, 2%, 3% to the leaves, fruits, and grains of plant that were previously prepared and sterilized for fermentation. They were placed in fermenters, and after completing fermentation, carbon dioxide CO2 and ethanol CH3CH2OH were measured, and the percentage of sugars and total dissolved solids was calculated. The results of the fermentation treatments for parts of the plant showed that the largest volume of CO2 gas collected by displacement after four days of fermentation was from the treatment of maize leaves + 3% yeast, which was 7000 ml, while the treatment Sorghum fruits + 1% yeast gave the lowest amount 1250 ml in the first day of fermentation. These findings suggest that the selection of corn species and yeast concentration is crucial for optimizing biofuel production. Furthermore, biofuel production from corn can contribute to achieving sustainable development goals in Iraq by reducing reliance on fossil fuels and providing an alternative energy source.

Inflammation and tissue remodeling involves a unique intracellular signaling pathway for the secretion of the proinflammatory cytokine in various crystallo-paths. The stone formation process now is known as an inflammatory process involved with the release of many interleukins. The present research was aimed to evaluate and investigate the levels of IL-1α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the serum of kidney stone patients. The results showed an increase in the ratio of renal calculi patients in males than females. Also, observed a significant increase (P<0.05) in levels of IL-1α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in kidney stone patients in comparison with the healthy controls. The current research concludes that the formation process of kidney stone involves the release of many cytokines, which may participate in the formation of inflammasome as a defense mechanism from kidney tissues against the formed stone. © 2022 American Institute of Physics Inc.

The present study aimed to investigate the effect of different concentrations of cold water extract, hot water extract, and alcohol extract of Costus specious plant with concentrations of 25, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350 micro liters/ml tested on eight pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus albeisbllK Bacillus, Entrobactera, Serratia Pseudomonas aeruginosa Escherichia coli, Was obtained from the laboratories of the hospital of the city of medicine in Baghdad. The method of spread across the cattle. There was an effect on the bacteria at different concentrations in the cold water extract Costus specious where there is no effect of the extract on the bacteria enterobacteria. The results of the measurement of the diameter of the inhibition are clear. There is an effect on the bacteria species with the hot water extract of the Indian variety with different concentrations and the alcoholic extract of the Costus specious plant which had an effect on the bacteria species with different concentrations. The difference in the effect of the extract on the growth of the bacteria depends on the type of bacteria and concentration of the extract The effect of cold water extract at a concentration of 5 g/mL was more effective on Staphylococcus aureus. The effect of the hot water extract at a concentration of 5 g/3 ml had an effect on Klebsiella and E. coli bacteria. The alcohol extract had the highest effect of 2 g/5 ml on E. coli and the 5 g/mL alcohol extract was more effective on Serratia and Enterobacteria and no effect on bacteria Klebsiella.

Kombucha is known as a probiotic, and used in several products to promotions of food. The present research was aimed to determine and investigate the beneficial and protective effects for the beverage of kombucha black tea alone and with skim milk fermented on concentrations of serum glucose, total lipids profile and body weights in male albino rats. The animals were distributed into four groups, the control group (I), group of skim milk (II), kombucha black tea group (III) and Kombucha in skim milk fermented group (IV), the dose of materials under study administered orally for experimental groups by gastric gavage method once daily for period (21) days. Blood samples were collected at the final of experiment and analyzed. The results revealed a significantly higher (p<0.05) in levels of serum glucose, total lipid profile, and significantly decrease (P<0.05) in HDL-C, AST and ALP in the skim milk group (II) in comparison with control group. While, animal groups that treated with Kombucha black tea (III) and Kombucha in skim milk fermentation (IV) lead to significantly decrease in concentrations of serum glucose, total lipid profile, ALT, AST, ALP and significantly higher in HDL-C and body weights in comparison with group (II) and normal control group consecutively. Moreover, administrated of Kombucha in skim milk fermentation showed significant decrease in above mentioned parameters compared with groups which treated with Kombucha black tea only. The obtained present results demonstrate that use Kombucha as a probiotic in skim milk fermented and with black tea lowers the harmful lipids, glucose and aminotransferases in blood, and it's maybe have a beneficial effects on the liver and the health of human body. © 2018, Advanced Scientific Research.

The objective of this study was examined and investigate the effect of varied amounts of kefir fermented in skim milk in concentrations of serum total lipids profile, aspartate amino transferase (AST) and alanine amino transferase (ALT) activities in human volunteers,used seventy five (75) human volunteers and have age (40-50) years were divided into 3 groups including one control and two experimental groups. volunteers in the control group (I) received normal drinking 200ml tap water, group (II) was treated 200ml from 5% kefir and group (III) was given 200ml from 7.5% kefir, respectively. At the end of experiment (21 day), blood samples were collected and analyzed, the results showed serum total lipid profile levels were significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in groups II and III compared with control group in response to kefir treatment, while observed significant increase in concentration of HDL-C in both groups that treated by kefir in comparison with control group. Moreover, kefir treatment in the groups did not result in any changes in serum AST and ALT activity. The obtained present results demonstrate that use kefir as a probioticsin skim milk lowers the harmful lipids in blood,thus, this research suggesting that use kefir in human diets may have a beneficial effectson health of human body.
