WHO selects scientific research by a lecturer at the Environmental Research Center to publish it on its official website
The World Health Organization (WHO) published on its official website a study entitled: Green synthesis of gold nanoparticles from Sophora flavescens extract and their antibacterial effect against some pathogenic bacteria. It belongs to the Dr. Zahraa Zahraw Farhan, a lecturer in the Environmental Research Center/ University of Technology, noting that the research was previously published in (2023) in an international journal within the Scopus and Clarivate indexing (Malaysian Journal of Microbiology). The study imed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of biogenic synthesized golden nanoparticles from Sophora flavescens Aiton roots aqueous extract against multidrug-resistant (MDR) clinical bacterial isolates. Sophora flavescens root extracts and their biosynthesized AuNPs with antibacterial activity may find broad applications in fighting MDR pathogenic bacteria and therapeutic manufacturing.

Dispatch to the Al-Harr sewage Project treatment plant in Karbala
Within the policy of the Environmental Research Center at the University of Technology to open up to ministries and state departments, M.R. was dispatched. Chemists Ahmed Alwan Nassif, affiliated with our center, went to Karbala Governorate for the purpose of bringing models from the Al-Harr sewage treatment plant for the purpose of evaluating the treatment of oils and greases within the research tagged (Evaluating oils and greases in wastewater before they enter treatment plants and treating them, and using the slag resulting from treatment to improve construction properties)
Ministerial committee
Based on the Ministry’s approach to achieving sustainable development goals in Iraqi universities, the Director of the Environmental Research Center, Professor Dr. Zainab Bahaa Muhammad, participated with a group of professors in creating two departments in the Upper Euphrates Basin Development Center - Anbar University.
The first is the Department of Environment and Pollution and the second is the Department of Meteorology and Climate.
The name of the center was changed to (Upper Euphrates Center for Sustainable Development Research).
Lecture entitled (Molecular and quantitative genetic evaluation of pure introduced lines of cherry tomato under protected cultivation conditions)
Within the activities of the cultural season of the Environmental Research Center, Assistant Lecturer Asmaa Nafi Badri gave a Lecture entitled (Molecular and quantitative genetic evaluation of pure introduced lines of cherry tomato under protected cultivation conditions)
It touched on a molecular genetic study of the genetic content of eight pure lines of cherry tomato: (1) LA3002 (2) LA2838A (3) LA0797 (4) LA4355 (5) LA7371 (6) LA3534 (7) LA3535 (8) LA3530 Brought from the center Genetic sources of tomato at the University of California - Davis, USA, CM Rick Tomato Genetics Center (TGRC), University of California in Davis, USA, using 15 primers (10 of the internal sequence type (ISSR) and 5 of which are type of simple tandem sequences (SSR) in order to establish its genetic fingerprint. In light of their results, the degree of genetic distance between them was determined, and in the second stage, the pure lines of cherry tomato were included in a comparison experiment among them based on the behavior of their field characteristics and were planted according to a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replicates.
Lecture entitled (Measurements of some cellular movements and lipid levels in patients with hypothyroidism and their relationship to the functions of thyroid hormones in clinical and subclinical cases)
As part of the activities of the cultural season of the Environmental Research Center, assistant lecturer Iman Karim Mutashar gave a lecture entitled (Measurements of some cellular movements and lipid levels in patients with hypothyroidism and their relationship to the functions of thyroid hormones in clinical and subclinical cases)
The effect of some immune parameters on the pathology of clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism. These immune parameters include white blood cells (12-17-33). This study also included some biochemical parameters to demonstrate the effect of thyroid function disorder on fat metabolism. This study included (47) Patients with clinical hypothyroidism and (12) patients with subclinical hypothyroidism, which were collected from the Endocrinology and Diabetes Center, Al-Kindi Hospital in Baghdad. The study also included (23) healthy individuals in the period between March 2017 and September 2017.
