Implementation of Optical Coherent Communication System between Two Computers
This work represents implementation and investigation of optical coherent communication system between two computers. A single mode optical fiber is selected as transmission medium. The data are sent via the RS-232 standard interface with a bit rate of 9.6 kbps from personal computer (PC1) by line receive to convert the data from electrical levels (-12/+12 V) into TTL level (0/5 V). The modulation of this data was accomplished by internal modulation using laser diode type (HFCT-5208M) 1310 nm wavelength. The optical D-coupler was used to combine the optical signal that come from laser source with optical signal of laser local oscillator (OTS-304XI) at 1310/1550 nm wavelength to obtain coherent (homodyne and heterodyne) detection respectively. A PIN photodetector (HFCT-5208M) is used.
Calculations of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) and Bit Error Rate (BER) for coherent detection were measured at different length of the optical fiber. Result show that high SNR and low BER for heterodyne detection than for homodyne detection
Synthesis , characterization and biological activity study of N-substituted sulfonamido maleimides substituted with different heterocycles
Eighteen new cyclic imides (maleimides) conncted to benzothiazole moiety through sulfonamide group were synthesized via multistep synthesis.The first step involved preparation of two maleamic acids N-phenylmaleamic acid and N-benzylmaleamic acid via reaction of maleic anhydride with aniline or benzyl amine.Dehydration of the prepared amic acids by treatment with acetic anhydride and anhydrous sodium acetate in the second step afforded N-phenylmaleimide and N- benzyl maleimide which in turn were treated with chlorosulfonic acid in the third step to afford 4-(N-maleimidyl) phenyl sulfonyl chloride and 4-(N-maleimidyl) benzyl sulfonyl chloride respectively.In the Fourth step of this work each one of the two prepared maleimidyl sulfonyl chlorides was introduced in reaction with nine substituted-2-amino benzothiazole compounds producing nine N-(4-(N-substituted benzothiazole -2-yl) sulfonamido phenyl) maleimides and nine N-(4-(N-substituted benzothiazole-2-yl)snlfonamido benzyl) maleimides.More over another new six sulfonamide phenyl and benzyl maleimides substituted with other heterocycles (pyridine and phenazone )were prepared via reaction of 4-(N-maleimidyl) phenyl and benzyl sulfonyl chlorides with heterocyclic amines including (2-amino pyridine,4-amino-pyridine,4-aminophenazone). Microbiological activity of the prepared compounds against two typs of bacteria(staphylococcus aureus and klebsiella pneumonia) and (candida albicans) fungi were evaluated and the results showed that these compounds have good antibacterial and good antifungal activities
Adsorption Study for Chromium (VI) on Iraqi Bentonite
The subject of this research involves studying adsorption to remove hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions.
Adsorption process on bentonite clay as adsorbent was used in the Cr(VI) concentration range (10-100) ppm at different temperatures (298, 303, 308 and 313)K, for different periods of time.
The adsorption isotherms were obtained by obeying Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm with R2 (0.9921-0.9060) and (0.994-0.9998), respectively.
The thermodynamic parameters were calculated by using the adsorption process at four different temperatures the values of ?H, ?G and ?S was [(+6.582 ? +6.547) kJ.mol-1, (-284.560 ? -343.070) kJ.mol-1 and (+0.977 ? +1.117) kJ.K-1.mol-1] respectively. This data indicates the spontaneous sorption process.
The kinetic study of adsorption process was studied depending on three kinetic equations:
1- Lagergren equation
2- Morris-Weber equation
3- Reichenberg equatio
Clinical Evaluation of Some Biochemical Parameters from Patients in Heamodialysis Room
As a marker of systemic inflammation, raised (C-reactive protein (CRP)) concentrations which are still within the normal range have been associated with an increased inflammation of chronic renal diseases (CRD).
The current study aimed to establish potential determinats of raised CRP concentrations in patients who treated in Heamodialysis room,then study the relationship between CRP& some biochemical parameters related CRD
We used a CRP latex reagents Kit which is based on an immunological reaction between CRP antisera bounded to the biologically inert latex particles or with CRP in the test specimens of 19 patients with (CRD) mean age 48 years ,range = 30?65 & in 21 healthy subjects as control group their age range = 30 ?45 years.
The results are classified according to visible agglutination to:
1-A positive result / is indicated by the obvious agglutination pattern of the latex, in a clear solution.
2-A negative result / is indicated by no change in the latex suspension on the test slide.
Then, we correlated the results of the precipitin test with the quantitative data on C-reactive protein.
This study has found that:
CRP concentrations in patients with CRD were increased very clearly than normal subjects , and established that CRP concentration in male was more than in female for patients specimens. Biochemical studies have shown raising (CRP) concentration is a marker of systemic inflammation.
The relation between CRP & S.creatinine ,hemoglobine ,blood sugar is negative ,while positive with blood urea .
Other biochemical parameter related to CRD'' blood urea, blood creatinine & hemoglobine and blood sugar'' were assayed for both subjects in order to asses the disease by compared the results.
Abbreviation:
CRP:C-reactive protein, CRD: Chronic renal diseases, F: Female, M: Male, Hb: hemoglobin, BU: blood Urea, S.Cr: Serum creatinine, BS: blood sugar, nCRP: native CRP, MCRP: Matified CRP
