Identify and Analyze the Most Important Factors Affecting the Safety of Employees in Construction Sites in Iraq

تعد المشاريع الانشائية من أخطر الصناعات الانشائية من حيث تعرض سلامة وصحة العمال للحوادث المتنوعة والخطرة اثناء عملية البناء. إذ تبين احصائيات منظمة العمل الدولية وجود حادثة وفاة كل ثلاثة دقائق نتيجة إصابة العمال وان هنالك اربع إصابات مختلفة تحدث في العالم كل ثانية.  وقد تم تحديد صناعة البناء باعتبارها واحدة من الصناعات الأكثر خطورة، وذلك بسبب طبيعة العمل الناتج عن تكامل المواد والأدوات والبيئة والعوامل البشرية المختلفة حيث من الضروري إعطاء أهمية قصوى للسلامة المهنية والصحية للعمالة في مواقع المشاريع الانشائية وذلك لتقليل المخاطر والخسائر بين العمالة. حيث يعاني العراق من عدم الاهتمام بسلامة وصحة العمالة. ورغم أهمية السلامة والصحة للعاملين نلاحظ ان الأبحاث التي تطرقت لموضوع السلامة في المشاريع الانشائية تضل قليلة. يبدو أن الدراسات التجريبية حول تأثير الثقافة الوطنية على مواقف وسلوك وأداء السلامة قليلة. لا يبدو من غير المعقول أن نتوقع أن تختلف مواقف الناس تجاه المخاطر وفقًا للقيم والمعتقدات والافتراضات العميقة. لذا تم التركيز في هذا على اهم العوامل المؤثرة على سلامة وصحة العاملين في المواقع الانشائية وعمل اقتراحات حول من يتحمل هذه الإصابات صاحب العمل او المقاول ويتم ذكر كافة إجراءات السلامة اثناء كتابة عقد المقاولة ووضعها من الشروط الأساسية في المشروع.Construction sites are among the most dangerous construction industries in terms of exposing the safety and health of workers to various dangerous accidents during the construction process. Where the statistics of the International Labor Organization show that there is one death every three minutes as a result of a work injury and that there are four different injuries occurring in the world every second. The construction industry has been identified as one of the most dangerous industries, due to the nature of the work resulting from the integration of materials, tools, the environment and various human factors. A message of worker safety consideration during design sites. It is necessary to give the highest importance to the occupational and health safety of workers in construction projects sites in order to reduce risks and losses. Among worker. Iraq suffers from a lack of attention to safety and health of employment. Despite the importance of safety and health for workers, we note that research that deals with on the issue of safety in construction projects is still very little. Empirical studies on the effect of national culture on safety attitudes, behavior, and performance appear to be few. It does not seem unreasonable to expect people’s attitudes toward risk to differ according to the deep values, beliefs and assumptions that local culture influences safety in projects. Therefore, the focus was on the most important factors affecting the safety and health of workers in construction sites and making suggestions about who bears these injuries to the employer or contractor and all safety measures are mentioned while writing the contract and placing them as basic conditions in the project.                                                     &nbsp

Electrochemical detection of sulfite in food samples

In various pharmaceutical and food industries, sulfite is utilized for the inhibition of nonenzymatic and enzymatic browning. Also, in brewing industries, it acts as an antioxidizing and antibacterial agent. Several toxic and adverse reactions, including vitamin deficiency, hypersensitivity, and allergic diseases, have been attributed to sulfite ingestion that may cause dysbiotic oral and gut microbiota events. Thus, the content of sulfite in foods must be controlled and monitored, and it is essential to find a specific, reproducible, and sensitive method to detect sulfite. Some analytical solutions are being tested to quantify sulfite. However, due to their advantage over traditional techniques, electroanalytical techniques are attracting much attention because they are simple, fast, affordable, and sensitive to implement. In addition, by the electrode modification, the morphology and size can be controlled, resulting in the miniaturization to be used in portable electrochemical devices. Therefore, the present review addressed some articles on the electrooxidation of sulfite from real samples using various electrochemical sensors

UTJECAJ DULJINE IGS BAZE NA TOČNOST POZICIONIRANJA GNSS-A

Since the establishment of the International GNSS Service (IGS) stations, they have been used as control stations for assigning the Precise point positioning (PPP) positions using one Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver, which has increased from day-to-day. There are some factors affecting the accuracy of PPP positioning. This research aims to investigate the relation between the IGS distance and observed field points as well as to attempt to describe that relation mathematically/statically. For the realization of that aim, two field points are fixed inside the Assiut University campus and observed successively for a session of 24 hour observation. The position of each field point is assigned with the help of each one of the available IGS station products. It must be known that these products are found after observations in three files (IGU, IGR, and final IGS), whereas IGU is used directly as real-time data (ultra-rapid), IGR (rapid) is used through (17-41 hours) after observation, and (final IGS) used after 12 – 18 days. Coordinates and point errors of each field points are computed and represented. It has been found that the errors have a positive relation with the available IGS stations distances. The relation between these distances and point positioning errors have been represented and described according to a model. The accuracy of the presented model is (R ≅ .98, x2 ≅ 2.5 × 10-3).Od uspostave postaja Međunarodnoga GNSS servisa (IGS) iz dana u dan povećava se korištenje kontrolnih stanica za dodjelu položaja precizne točke (PPP) pomoću jednoga prijamnika Globalnoga satelitskog navigacijskog sustava (GNSS). Postoje neki čimbenici koji utječu na točnost PPP pozicioniranja. Cilj je ovoga istraživanja istražiti odnos između IGS udaljenosti i promatranih točaka polja te opisati taj odnos matematički i statički. Za realizaciju toga cilja dvije terenske točke fiksirane su unutar kampusa Sveučilišta Assiut i promatrane sukcesivno tijekom sesije promatranja od 24 sata. Položaj svake točke polja dodjeljuje se uz pomoć svakoga od dostupnih proizvoda IGS stanica. Bitno je napomenuti da se ti produkti nalaze u tri datoteke (IGU, IGR i konačni IGS) nakon promatranja, dok se IGU koristi izravno kao podatci u stvarnome vremenu (ultra-rapid), IGR (rapid) kroz 17 – 41 sat nakon promatranja, a konačni IGS nakon 12 – 18 dana. Koordinate i pogreške točaka svake točke polja izračunane su i prikazane. Utvrđeno je da su pogreške u pozitivnom odnosu s dostupnim udaljenostima IGS postaja. Odnos između tih udaljenosti i pogrešaka pozicioniranja točke prikazan je i opisan prema modelu. Točnost je prikazanoga modela R ≅ .98, x2 ≅ 2.5 × 10-3

Proximate Composition, Mineral Content and Secondary Metabolites of Three Medicinal Wild Fagonia Species

Proximate composition of the aerial parts of three Fagonia species (Fagonia arabica L., F. mollis Delile and F. cretica L.) collected from different habitats were analyzed. Macro- and micro-elements as well as some secondary metabolites were estimated. The obtained results revealed that F. creticus contains appreciable levels of nutritive components considering that its nutritional value (351.06 kcal/100g dry wt.) was remarkably higher than that of F. arabica and F. mollis (327.99 and 293.07 kcal/100g dry wt., respectively). The concentration of Na was relatively the highest among the other estimated macroelements in the studied species followed by K, Ca and Mg, respectively while Fe was the highest microelement followed by Cu, Mn and Zn, respectively. The phytochemical composition revealed that methanolic extract of F. creticus was the richest in total alkaloids and flavonoids, while F. arabica found to be the richest in total phenolics and tannins

Phytochemical analysis and biological activities of three wild Mesembryanthemum species growing in heterogeneous habitats

The objective of this study was to analyze the phytochemicals and to determine the antioxidant, antibacterial and allelopathic potential of three wild Mesembryanthemum species (M. crystallinum L., M. forsskaolii Hochst. Ex Boiss and M. nodiflorum L.). The phytochemical composition of the methanolic extract of studied species revealed the considerable quantities that might be responsible for their powerful antioxidant activity. The IC50 values were 386.51, 592.97, and 752.23µg/ml for M. nodiflorum, M. crystallinum and M. forsskaolii extracts respectively. The antibacterial activity index was calculated for each extract in comparison with the standard antibiotics. M. nodiflorum showed higher potency than ampicillin and penicillin G against against Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis. The allelopathic potential showed that the studied Mesembryanthemum species expressed a significant phytotoxic activity against Chenopodium murale weed in a dose dependent manner. M. nodiflorum sample showed the most phytotoxic effect among the studied species

Thermoluminescence responses of photon- and electron-irradiated lithium potassium borate co-doped with Cu+Mg or Ti+Mg

New glasses Li2CO3–K2CO3–H3BO3 (LKB) co-doped with CuO and MgO, or with TiO2 and MgO, were synthesized by the chemical quenching technique. The thermoluminescence (TL) responses of LKB:Cu,Mg and LKB:Ti,Mg irradiated with 6 MV photons or 6 MeV electrons were compared in the dose range 0.5–4.0 Gy. The standard commercial dosimeter LiF:Mg,Ti (TLD-100) was used to calibrate the TL reader and as a reference in comparison of the TL properties of the new materials. The dependence of the responses of the new materials on 60Co dose is linear in the range of 1–1000 Gy. The TL yields of both of the co-doped glasses and TLD-100 are greater for electron irradiation than for photon irradiation. The TL sensitivity of LKB:Ti,Mg is 1.3 times higher than the sensitivity of LKB:Cu,Mg and 12 times less than the sensitivity of TLD-100. The new TL dosimetric materials have low effective atomic numbers, good linearity of the dose responses, excellent signal reproducibility, and a simple glow curve structure. This combination of properties makes them suitable for radiation dosimetry
