Basrah - College of Pharmacy Media:

The College of Pharmacy at the University of Basrah organized a seminar titled "Study of the Pharmacological Activity of a Newly Synthesized and Classified Selenadiazole Compound Compared to the Effects of Dipyrone," in a lecture presented by Dr. Nazeera Faleh Nima.

The seminar included an explanation of the importance of Selenium, as it plays crucial physiological roles. Therefore, numerous attempts have been made to synthesize a new selenium compound, study its therapeutic effects, and compare it with the effects of the drug Dipyrone.

The lecture explained that the results of the new compound showed it to be of low toxicity, possessing a high median lethal dose (LD50) value. It also demonstrated high antioxidant activity, and antibacterial and antifungal effects that are directly proportional to the dose. In addition, it had a clear effect on the reproduction of female rats through an increase in Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and an increase in progesterone hormone, as well as having no negative effect on kidney and liver functions.

The lecture aimed to highlight the synthesis of a new Selenadiazole substance and the study of its pharmacological activity.
