Hydrothermal technology has many advantages compared to other growth methods such as the availability of their simple equipment,catalyst-free growth,Environmental friendliness, less dangerous environmental, and low costs. Combine spinning method technology with Hydrothermal could improve the structural of ZnO NS by increasing the formation of ZnO NS due to influence of heat annealed treatments on the structure of ZnO NS.   ZnONano-Sheets (NS)were prepared to employ hydrothermal process utilizing zinc acetate, that  has the chemical composition (Zn (CH3CO2)2.2H2O),as a precursor. After preparing the material, it is deposited in two methods, the first being distillation of the material on the glass (S1),while the second method was using the spinning technique (S2).The spinning method showed better results than the other method.The synthesized ZnO NS were analyzed byscanning electron microscopy (SEM),X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and their optical properties have been characterized utilizingUV- absorption spectra.

In the present paper, many unsaturated polyesters has been synthesized using maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride and succinic anhydride for esterification with new monomer [E)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl) prop-2-en-1-one]. These polyesters were polymerized by condensation reaction . Their chemical structures were characterized using FTIR, 13C-NMR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Thermal properties have been analysed using Differential Scanning Calorimetry of synthesized polyesters .All the polymers showed well thermal stability and perfect data of glass transition temperature (Tg) also the results showed polyesters and monomer were successfully synthesized by giving well spectrum improved existing an ester functional group (-COO-) in spectrums each polymer prepared also existent Chalcone functional group(-CO-CH=CH-) in spectrum of monomer.

This work was aimed to prepare new monomer (E)-1-(4-aminophenyl)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl) prop-2-en-1-one] and three types of poly (ester-amide) polymers. New monomer is Chalcone compound α,βunsaturated ketone contain functional group(-CO-CH=CH-) of presence system α,βunsaturated carbonyl group. It is prepared by condensation aryl ketone with aromatic aldehyde with presence of suitable condensation agents which called Aldol condensation. Monomer reacted with (phthalic anhydride maleic anhydride salicylic acid and succinic anhydride) Via solution poly condensation reactions to yield three types of polymers. The prepared monmer and polymers were characterized by [(FT.IR-spectra, Nuclear magnetic resonance 1H.NMR-spectra , 13C.NMRspectra and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)] All the polymers showed good thermal stability and good data of glass transition temperature (Tg). The results revealed that poly (ester-amide)s were successfully prepared by giving good spectrum which improved the existed amide functional group (-CONH-) and ester functional group (-COO-) in spectrum of each prepared polymer, furthermore the existed chalcone functional group(-CO-CH=CH-) is improved in spectrums of monomer.

Evidence has long been existed regarding the relationship between oxidative stress and diabetes. The present study was conducted to assess the effect of atorvastatin on selected oxidative stress parameters and its effect on lipid profile parameters in dyslipidaemic type 2 diabetic patients. Fifty nine dyslipidaemic type 2 diabetic patients were included in this study. A full history was taken and general examination was performed. The patients were taking an oral hypoglycaemic drug (glibenclamide) during the study. The patients were followed up for 60 days and divided randomly into 2 groups. Group I (n = 31) received no drug and served as dyslipidaemic diabetic control. Group II (n = 28) received atorvastatin tablets 20 mg once daily at night. Blood samples were drawn from the patients at the beginning and after 60 days of follow up between 8:30 and 10:30 am after at least 12-14 hours fasting. Fasting blood glucose, lipid profile, selective oxidative stress parameters, glutathione S reductase (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, glutathione S transferase (GST) and catalase (CAT) activities were measured. Renal and hepatic functions were also assessed. The results showed that atorvastatin treatment produced significant increase in serum levels of GSH and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL), while serum levels of MDA, Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C) and Very Low Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) were significantly decreased. However, no significant effect was observed regarding CAT and GST activity. There were insignificant correlations between atorvastatin induced changes in the oxidation markers and the observed changes of the lipid profile. In conclusion, the antioxidant effect of atorvastatin could be unrelated to its hypolipidemic action as there was insignificant correlation between changes in lipid profile and oxidative stress in this study
