    Abstract The current study was applied in Al-Zafaraniya area southeast of the capital Baghdad from October 2021 to April 2022. This is to evaluate some heavy elements (Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, and Mn) in the street, storm, and suspended dust. Four sampling sites were selected, and codes A, B, C, and D were given to represent the industrial activity sites, service workshops, business activity, and residential areas. The results showed that the concentration rates of elements (Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Pb, Mn) in street dust samples were (1.15, 6.6, 60.15, 26770, 44.4, 6, 489.8). In storm dust (2, 10, 49.3, 54760, 24.3, 827.2) ppm, respectively, the results of suspended dust revealed that the general rates of element concentrations were (0.707, 3.546, 3.727, 83.204, 1.076, 8.706) μg/m3, respectively. The results also showed the frequency of the appearance of the same elements and different concentrations in the three types of dust. They also indicate that each other interacted in increasing and continuing to expose the city atmosphere to the air loaded with hazardous metals to the health of human society and the components of the city's ecosystem. It can also be concluded from the values and variations of the elements that there are several environmental factors, such as temperature, humidity, air currents, local and regional storm surges, and irregular distribution of vegetation, can be attributed to the main reason in the deference values of heavy elements and their presence in the street, storm and suspended dust

    Abstract Natural chitosan-based films (CS) were fabricated by changing ingredient corporations between gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), lithium oxide (Li₂O), and graphene oxide (GO). A Series of films with different components were obtained. The structural examination is executed by XRD, FTIR, and EDX to analyze crystal structure, chemical bonding, and chemical contents, respectively. The findings illustrated that, the Li₂O@CS exhibited the lowest contact angle with 70 ± 4.6°. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) displayd rod-shaped AuNPs with an average length of 0.3 μm and an average width of 90 nm. The refractive index of CS recorded 2.142, while AuNPs/Li₂O/GO@CS slightly declined to 2.085. Concerning AuNPs/Li₂O/GO@CS, the detected cell viability percentage of normal lung cells among the usage of 156.25 μg/mL is 98.91%, while 9.77 μg/mL achieved 125.78%. Therefore, combining AuNPs, GO and Li₂O within the CS matrix results in films of boosted biocompatibility and can be suggested for medical applications.

    Abstract The experiments were carried out to evaluate impact of four natural plant oils (namely: Cinnamonium zeylanicum (L.), Cinnamonium camphore, Cuminum cyminum (L.) and Origanum majorana (L.) and three commercial monoterpene oils (namely: Geraniol, a-Pinene and Citronella) toward different stages of greater wax moth. The results indicated embryonic development, the first larval stars and adult stages were the most affect by fumes of the tested oils more than last larval stage. The results indicated that embryonic development of exposed eggs affected by fumes of all tested oils, especially at high concentration (2 and 3 pl/150 ml). On other side, Continuous exposure of 1st instar larvae to C. zeylanicum (3 and 5 pl/150 ml) fumes caused larval mortality percent reach to 63 and 83.3% and failed adult emergence (0.0%) while continuous exposure to all tested monoterpenes concentrations caused depression in adult emergence percentage ranged between 0.0 - 13.3% compared to control. Different concentrations of C. zelyanicum, Geraniol and Citronella were caused highly significance depression in the longevity of exposed adults (male and female) and oviposition activity. This study indicated that the fumes of natural or commercial oils had ability to reduce the greater wax moth population through their effect on its sensitive stages (eggs, 1st larval and adult stages).

    Abstract Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a multifactorial hormonal disorder accompanied by impairment of endometrial function and structure. Pomegranate is recognized for its role in normalizing the female sex hormones in PCOS with little known about its effect on the accompanying endometrial histological alterations.
    Aim of the work: To assess the possible ameliorative role of pomegranate juice extract (PJE) on endometrial injury in a rat model of PCOS.
    Material and methods: Forty adult albino rats were equally divided into 4 groups; control, PJE-treated (400mg/kg/day for 3 weeks), letrozole-treated (PCOS) (1mg/kg/day for 3 weeks), and PJE & PCOS groups. Serum Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), Luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone, estradiol, and tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) were assayed. Uterine samples were processed for histological staining with hematoxylin & eosin and Masson's trichrome stains, Ki67 and androgen receptor immunohistochemical staining, and scanning electron microscopy.
    Results: PCOS group revealed a significant increase in serum FSH, LH, testosterone, estradiol, and tissue MDA. Uterine sections depicted various histological alterations in the endometrium with signs of inflammation. A significant increase in the endometrial collagen fiber content, as well as a significant upregulation in Ki67 and androgen receptor immunohistochemical expression were detected. Scanning electron microscopy showed a significant decrease in the mean number of pinopodes. Concomitant administration of PJE efficiently restored the studied biochemical, histological, and immunohistochemical parameters.
    Conclusion: PJE ameliorated PCOS accompanying endometrial histological alterations through its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-fibrotic, anti-proliferative, and anti-androgenic effects most probably due to its polyphenols content.
