Effect of β-Glucan Extracted from Saccharomyces cerevisiae on angiogenesis

This study was conducted for investigating the effect of β-glucan as anti-angiogenicagent and their immunological effect. Sample of dried Saccharomycescerevisiae were obtained from local market in Iraq, the identification has been confirmed the type of S. cerevisiaeby cultural, morphological and biochemical tests for the yeast. Glucan was extracted from yeast sample depended on alkalineacidic

Study the Effect of Ferula hermonis Extract on the Fertility in Male Mice

  The present study was designed to detect the impact of fertility, histopathalogical and the cytotoxicity effect of ferula hermonis extract on male albino mice. To study the effect of F. hermonis, methanolic roots extract was prepared and chemical detection of flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, terpenes and steroids was carried out. The Thin Layer Chromatography analysis of methanolic extract showed that ferutinine was present based on RF value.

Molecular Identification of Klebsiella pneumoniae Using Capsule Genes

K. pneumoniae isolates was diagnosed molecularly by using polymerase chain reaction, 16S rRNA, rmpA and kfu genes were amplified and study the prevalence of the K serotypes, as well as, genes (except kfu gene) were amplified by using multiplex PCR. Results showed that all the isolates of K. pneumoniae gave a clear band with a molecular size 130 bp when PCR was performed with the primer that target the 16S rRNA.
