Background One thousand sixty-one individuals were sampled from the cities of Anbar, Baghdad, Basra, Diyala, Najaf, and Wasit in Iraq and typed for 15 forensic STRs to explore the genetic structure of Iraq and develop a forensic DNA database. The total number of alleles that were identified was 203. Result Analyses of molecular variance (AMOVA) we...

This review provides an overview of the progress made in the field of rice genotypes and DNA markers. Rice is a crucial food source globally, and enhancing its nutritional value and resilience to stresses is of significant interest. The availability of high-quality rice genome sequences and functional genomic resources has accelerated genetic resea...

Gastritis can be defined as histological inflammation of the gastric mucosa. It can be classified according to the time course of the disease as acute or chronic, histological findings, anatomic location, and pathological mechanisms. The objective of this study was to evaluation of serum levels of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-8, IL-17 and IL-22...

An important area of genetics called epigenetics studies the complex interactions between environmental variables and cellular phenotypic changes. It includes research on heritable changes in gene expression that don't involve changing the underlying DNA sequence. This phenomenon affects several important biological processes, including immune syst...

Background: 1061 individuals were sampled from the cities of Anbar, Baghdad, Basra, Diyala, Najaf, and Wasit in Iraq and typed for 15 forensic STRs to explore the genetic structure of Iraq and develop a forensic DNA database .The total number of alleles that were identified were 203 alleles .Analyses found that Iraq is similar to other countries in...

Objective(s): Sperm-mediated oocyte activation depends upon suitable expression and assembly of sperm-borne oocyte-activating factors (SOAFs) during spermiogenesis. Several factors have been considered as candidates for oocyte activation in recent years. Globozoospermia is a severe sperm morphology disorder that is a rare type of teratozoospermia w...

Analysis of touched DNA from crime scenes is fundamental in forensic DNA laboratories. Many factors affect the recovery of DNA from touched surfaces and then affect the quality of the final results. The aim of this work is studying the possibility of recovery suitable amount of DNA from ltouched portable computer. The computer was cleaned with 10%...

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate a simple high sensitivity vapor sensor for propanol ((CH3)2CHOH). A free space gap was employed in two arms of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer to serve as the sensing mechanism by adding propanol volume (0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1) ml and to set the phase reference with a physical spacing of (0.5, 1, 1.5, an...

ABSTRACT The population genetic data and forensic parameters of 15-chromosome short tandem repeat (STR) loci(D3S1358, vWA, FGA, D8S1179, D21S11, D18S51, D5S818, D13S317, D7S820, TH01, TPOX, CSF1PO, D19S433, D2S1338, D16S539) in Najaf city of Iraq are presented. These loci were detected in a sample of 108 (67 males and 41 females) unrelated healthy...

This study conducted to determine the incidence of point mutation A3243G RNALeu (UUR) in diabetes pateints within the Iraqi population and campare it with that reported in other populations. Peripheral blood were collected from 100 patients attended university of Al-Mustansiriyah / national centre for the treatment of diabetes and research. The age...

Factor V Leiden (FVL) (G1691A) and prothrombin gene (G20210A) mutations are the most common inherited forms of thrombophilia. The main objective of this study is to analyze the association between inherited thrombophilia FVL mutation and prothrombin G20210A mutation and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) among women suffering from complications of preg...

Allele frequencies for 15 STR loci (CSF1PO, D3S1358, D5S818, D7S820, D8S1179, D13S317,D16S539, D18S51, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPOX, VWA, D2S1338, D19S433) included in the AmpFlSTR Identifiler kit were determined in a sample of 132 unrelated people originating From Al Anbar-Iraqi Population, samples were extracted using a Prep Filer Forensic DNA Extract...

Following suicide bombing, human remains usually collected for DNA identification. Human remains affected due to exposure to excessive heat and bomb solid, sharp pieces. The aim of this work is to study the possibility of DNA analyzing of human remains after suicide bombing. Fifteen human remains were received from a place of suicide bombing in Naj...
