A Faculty Member from the Center Participates in the International Conference of the College of Pharmacy

Professor Dr. Zainab Yassin Mohammed, a faculty member in the Department of Plant Biotechnology at the Center for Biotechnology Research, Al-Nahrain University, participated in the 6th International Conference of the College of Pharmacy at Al-Mustansiriyah University, in collaboration with the College of Pharmacy at the American University.

Her participation included presenting a research study titled:
“The Effect of Resveratrol Extracted from Iraqi Black Grape Peels on Blood Sugar Levels in Laboratory Animals.”

The study aimed to purify a therapeutic compound, resveratrol, from black grape peel waste and examine its effects on blood sugar levels and liver function in laboratory animals.

The results showed that resveratrol significantly reduced blood sugar levels in diabetic-induced laboratory animals and restored liver function to normal levels, compared to conventional medications.

The study was conducted by Prof. Dr. Zainab Yassin, Prof. Dr. Hazem Ismail, and Dr. Jasim Abdullah.
In recognition of the significance of her research and its impact on public health, Dr. Zainab Yassin was honored with a Certificate of Participation.
