Authors: Asmaa Z. Al- Ghreer  , Zainalabdeen  A. Abdualla  
Published: April 2023

Objectives: To examine and compare the diagnostic value of Interferon gamma releasing assay (IGRAs) (T- SPOT TB and Qunati FERON Gold in Tube) in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Materials and methods: The study included 40 patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis. They were attendance of Respiratory Health Care Centers in Mosul City for the period from March to December 2013. From each patient a sputum sample was collected and processed for culture on Löwenstein-Jensen (L-J media). Twelve milliliters (ml) of blood from each patients was collected (10 ml collected in heparinised tube for T SPOT TB and 2 ml in QFT-GIT special tubes)
Results: From the total 40 patients with positive AFB staining 37 (92.5%) were culture positive. The specificity of both IGRAs were 100% . The sensitivity of T- SPOT TB test was 91.89%, while the QFT-GIT sensitivity was 86.49%. The positive predictive value of both IGRAs was 100%. The negative predictive value of T SPOT TB was 50 %, while that of QFT-GIT was 37.5 %. There was a moderate degree of agreement between the T -SPOT TB and QFT–GIT in (82.5%, k=0.54, 95%CI). The results of the two IGRAs are not affected by BCG vaccination status of TB patients.
Conclusions: The IGRAs could provide a supplementary information as part of diagnostic work-up for tuberculosis diagnosis but it is important to note that a negative IGRA does not rule out active TB . Moreover, and of the two IGRAs, QFT GIT is more convenient to adopted for diagnostic use.

The different investigation has been carried out on the biological activities of silver, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide nanoparticles. But no study till now has identified the activity of particles' size or type, nor a study has proved their best synergism activity with antibiotics in one experiment against the same isolates.
In this study different sizes of the three types of nanoparticles (NPs) was used to detect the antibacterial activity against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, which was isolated from patients (with burns and wound) at Erbil hospitals. Different antibiotics also, was evaluated against the same isolates. The Mithicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates showed multidrug-resistant to most using antibiotics like; ampicillin, amoxicillin, gentamicin, tetracycline clindamycin and erythromycin. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of these antibiotics at then was conjugated with the nanoparticles' MIC to show the synergism effect by well diffusion method.
The results showed that the phenotypic inhibition zones had been increased minimum 2 mm to maximum 18 mm, that confirmed the synergism activity when the antibiotics conjugated with NPs. These results signify that these nanoparticle potentate the antimicrobial action of (beta lactums, aminoglycosides, tetracycline, macrolides and lincosamides) a possible utilization of nano compound in combination effect against MRSA .
