Copolymerization of dimethylol urea and hydroxylated coconut oil was carefully studied in this work. The FTIR spectroscopy of the pure DMU and DMU/HCNO showed chemical interaction took place. Some physico-chemical parameters such as melting point, gel time, moisture uptake, turbidity, viscosity, density, solubility, formaldehyde emission, and refractive index was evaluated.

This study assessed the impact of maize enterprise development project on rural farmers in Kaduna State, Nigeria. Specifically, the study ascertained the socio economic characteristics of the beneficiaries and their welfare situation. 110 beneficiaries were randomly selected from the study area. Data were collected using structured questionnaire, focus group discussion guide (FGD) and key informant interview (KII) technique. FGD and KII revealed that the inputs supplied to them (beneficiaries) helped in solving problems of inputs unavailability and poor quality inputs.

Introduction: Depression is not uncommon after trauma or surgery. The psychological strain of ill health, need for surgery, and financial implications of ill health all contribute to an episode of depression, or aggravate an existing diagnosis of depression.

Aim of study: to identify the risk factors of febrile convulsion among children admitted to pediatrics hospitals in Mosul city. Patient (material) and method: a case-control hospital based study.

Advanced oxidation induced by cold plasma under the high voltage electrical barrier discharge exhibits a wide use in practice due to be able to produce very high concentrations of reactive oxygen species with short and long life. The reactive oxygen species generated include free radicals (•OH) and other oxidative reagents like ozone, hydrogen peroxide. The quantification of these oxidative components is truly imperative to application in wastewater treatment to design plasma reactors. The concentrations of these species might be determined by many methods.

Physical education course is compulsory component of basic education, Which includes early childhood education, and elementary school high school. Thus plays an extremely significant role in early childhood education, because it is through play que the child explores his body, Interacts with other bodies and Develop Their cognitive growth and motor, reflecting on literacy and logical-mathematical reasoning are que the spatial orientation, temporal, directional and laterality are basic assumption for reading and writing.

Annona crassiflora Mart. is a species of the cerrado biome in the family Annonaceae. It is a vegetable with therapeutic potential. However, it should be emphasized that its toxicity when consumed in large doses remains unknown, and clinical studies are strongly suggested for this purpose. The objective of this study was to verify the toxicological effect of leaf and seed extracts of Annona crassiflora Mart. (Annonaceae) in mice. The plant was collected in were collected in cerrado areas in Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Background: More than 4 million neonates died yearly because of infections, among them, umbilical cord infections contribute to one million of them, thus, proper handling and care of the umbilical cord after delivery may have a great benefit in reducing worldwide neonatal mortality. Objectives: Estimation of the mean time of separation of the umbilical cord within a limited sample size of the term newborns and assessing the influence of different factors on the time of separation of the umbilical cord.
