Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) constitutes a family of genetically heterogeneous lymphoid neoplasms derived from B- and T-lymphoid progenitors. The aim of the study was to assess the oxidative status through measurement of antioxidants levels in patients with ALL and deduce any differences in their concentrations from normal values. The study was included 60 children with acute lymphoid leukemia diagnosed by blood film and bone marrow examination and 30 healthy subjects taken as healthy for the initial laboratory tests. Oxidative stress, blood antioxidants status, and liver enzymes profiles were measured in all groups. Our results showed that Antioxidants levels and Hb were significant decreased (P⩽0.05) in ALL patients. In contrast MDA, liver enzymes, leukocytes and Lymphocytes count were significant increase (P⩽0.05) in ALL patients compared to healthy control subjects. Boys predominance was evident, the fraction of patients living in urban areas was more than those of rural regions. Also, the results from statistical analysis revealed that there was a strong correlation between ABO blood groups and leukemia. The present study concludes that free radicals have been concerned in the pathogenesis of leukemia in childhood, the mechanism of increased MDA is that may be due to lymphocyte cells are source superoxide and other oxygen metabolites which lead to lipid peroxidation.

Abstract
Herbal remedy has been used as efficacious choice for treating type 2 diabetes mellitus in last two decades. The aim of current study is to investigate the hypoglycemic action of Lactuca serriola on chronic hyperglycemia model in male rats. The experiment included four groups and five rates were applied for each group. All rates (except control group) treated with 60% sucrose in diet for 8 weeks. The first group was considered as high sucrose feed (HSF) or model, whiles the second and third groups where administrated with 200 and 500 mg/Kg BW. of Lactuca serriola by gastric gavage respectively. Hyperglycemia was assessed by evaluating fasting blood sugar, serum insulin, HbA1c, oral glucose tolerance test, HOMA-IR and HOMA-B. Moreover, lipid profiles were also measured. The results indicated that induction of chronic hyperglycemia model for 8 weeks led to β-cell dysfunction as HOMA-B significantly (P<0.05) decreased, while both doses of Lactuca serriola restored β -cell function and insulin secretion. Furthermore, Lactuca serriola improved glucose tolerance significantly via measuring the total area under the curve. This finding suggested that Lactuca serriola could be applied as a therapy for chronic hyperglycemia.

A total of 480 one day–old broilers Ross 308 were randomly allotted to 8 experimental groups in a complete randomized design. Basic treatments were divided initially at time of hatching, a- early feeding group which had a free access to water and diet from direct time of post hatching until 6 weeks, this group contained 240 chicks which distributed into 4 subgroups with 4 replicates/subgroups. The 1st subgroup was fed basal diet (control), the 2nd subgroup was fed basal diet plus 1000 ml of dates molasses/l of drinking water. The 3rd subgroup was fed basal diet plus 50 g of L-ascorbic acid/l of drinking water. The 4th subgroup was fed basal diet plus 1000 ml and 50 g of dates molasses and L-ascorbic acid, respectively / l of drinking water, b- late feeding group which had free access to water and diet after 12 hours from their reaching to farm until 6 weeks, this group was also contained 240 chicks which distributed into 4 subgroups and 4 replicates/subgroup with the same feed additives mentioned earlier.All the chickens were reared in the same environmental and management conditions. Growth performance (body weight, weight gain, feed intake, water consumption and feed conversion ratio) were determined on 3 and 6 weeks. Carcass traits (dressing percentage, breast, Thigh and femoral part, abdominal fat), factor of productive efficiency and mortality were assessed on 6 weeks. Growth performance was significantly (P<0.05) improved in the dates molasses and ascorbic acid in both early and late feeding treated broilers compared to the not supplemented control. Dates molasses in water increased the relative weight of dressing percentage, breast and abdominal fat as well as ascorbic acid increased the relative weight of thigh and femoral part. These data suggest that the dates molasses and ascorbic acid may improve growth performance in broiler chickens.

Authors: Golovin P A , Rul N I , Bagraev N T , Klyachkin L E , Malyarenko A M 
Published: October 2019

Abstract
The experimental data of the optical and electric features of the silicon nanosandwiches obtained by silicon planar technology in the frameworks of the Hall geometry are presented. Silicon nanosandwiches represent the ultra-shallow silicon quantum wells of 2nm wide that are confined by δ-barriers heavily doped with boron, which appear to be used as the phase invertors and modulators of optical THz spectra and electric signals. The negative-U dipole boron centers formation, which appear to confine the edge channels, results in the effective mass dropping and corresponding reduction of the electron-electron interaction thereby giving rise to the macroscopic quantum phenomena at high temperatures up to room temperature. The modulation phase shift of the THz electroluminescence spectrum and phase control of the longitudinal conductance are observed by changing either the magnitude of the source-drain current or the voltage applied to the external gates of the silicon nanosandwiches within the quantum Faraday effect.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
The article presents results of development of communication protocol for UART-like FPGA-systems. Developed communication protocol supports asynchronous oversampled signal transmission, with 4b/6b encoding for DC-balance maintaining. Algorithm of CPLD-based receiver of signals forming by this protocol is described. This development is relevant for the task of continuous transmission of several control signals over a fiber-optic line, when the use of ready-made UART devices is unjustified. The presented protocol and algorithm are easily implemented on the FPGA and can be used in devices where it is important to minimize the number of elements used. Also, the protocol contains encoding that allows the transmission of low-frequency signals along a line with DC-coupling.

Published: October 2019

Abstract
Calibration of measurement systems using well-prepared calibration materials is an important means of making traceability in chemical measurements. Traceability is established through the use of measurement standards (such as certified reference materials) that are appropriate for each parameter. Pure substance certified reference materials such as elemental standard solutions are the most commonly used for calibration, called external calibrations using one, two or multiple standards. In this study, one-point calibration method has been applied for characterizing of Fe, Ni and Pb standard solutions. The results show that the concentration of the Fe, Ni and Pb standard solutions with their relative uncertainties were found to be 997.81 ± 6.34 mg/kg, 997.61 ± 8.10 mg/kg, 1004.29 ± 8.62 mg/kg, respectively.
