Many cardiovascular diseases deaths occur among elderly people, between the 45–64 age group. Cardiovascular diseases leads to obstruction of blood flow through the coronary arteries to the heart

In this work the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) N-(4`-methoxybenzylidene)-4-n-butylaniline (MBBA) with transition temperature range between (22oC - 42℃) was prepared and identified using FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The liquid crystalline behavior was examined by means of hot-stage polarizing microscopy to determine the phase transition temperatures and the type of mesophases. The prepared compound MBBA was doped with different concentrations of multi wall carbon nanotube in order to study the electric
