  • Murray and Mallee Local Government Association
    MURRAY AND MALLEE LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION. ANNUAL REPORT - 2003/2004. Comprising – The Berri Barmera Council; Coorong District Council; District Council of Karoonda East Murray; District Council of Loxton Waikerie; Mid Murray Council; The Rural City of Murray Bridge; Renmark Paringa Council; and Southern Mallee District Council. 2 PRESIDENT’S ANNUAL REPORT. Having been given the honour of being the President of the Murray & Mallee Local Government Association (M&MLGA) in June 2003, I would like to say a big thank you to those who served before me. The previous Mayor of Loxton-Waikerie, Jan Cass did a lot of work in her role as President of the M&MLGA and I would like to acknowledge her great contribution to our organization. We have been kept busy on the M&MLGA front with bimonthly meetings held in our Region that have been well supported by the member councils and we have enjoyed great communications from our LGA Executive. One of the main topics lately has been the Natural Resource Management Bill. We are all waiting to find out how it will all work and the input from State Executive has been great. Thank you. Ken Coventry has continued to serve the M&MLGA well as he organises all our guest speakers and represents us on a lot of other committees. He has, however, now indicated he wishes to retire as Chief Executive Officer of the M&MLGA and will stay in place until we appoint a new CEO. On behalf of the M&MLGA I would like to say a big thank you to Ken for his untiring work and dedication to his duty and he will be sorely missed.

  • The Pharmacological and Therapeutic Importance of Eucalyptus Species Grown in Iraq
    IOSR Journal Of Pharmacy www.iosrphr.org (e)-ISSN: 2250-3013, (p)-ISSN: 2319-4219 Volume 7, Issue 3 Version.1 (March 2017), PP. 72-91 The pharmacological and therapeutic importance of Eucalyptus species grown in Iraq Prof Dr Ali Esmail Al-Snafi Department of Pharmacology, College of Medicine, Thi qar University, Iraq Abstract:- Eucalyptus species grown in Iraq were included Eucalyptus bicolor (Syn: Eucalyptus largiflorens), Eucalyptus griffithsii, Eucalyptus camaldulensis (Syn: Eucalyptus rostrata) Eucalyptus incrassate, Eucalyptus torquata and Eucalyptus microtheca (Syn: Eucalyptus coolabahs). Eucalypts contained volatile oils which occurred in many parts of the plant, depending on the species, but in the leaves that oils were most plentiful. The main constituent of the volatile oil derived from fresh leaves of Eucalyptus species was 1,8-cineole. The reported content of 1,8-cineole varies for 54-95%. The most common constituents co-occurring with 1,8- cineole were limonene, α-terpineol, monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes, globulol and α , β and ϒ-eudesmol, and aromatic constituents. The pharmacological studies revealed that Eucalypts possessed gastrointestinal, antiinflammatory, analgesic, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anticancer, antimicrobial, antiparasitic, insecticidal, repellent, oral and dental, dermatological, nasal and many other effects. The current review highlights the chemical constituents and pharmacological and therapeutic activities of Eucalyptus species grown in Iraq. Keywords: Eucalyptus species, constituents, pharmacological, therapeutic I. INTRODUCTION: In the last few decades there has been an exponential growth in the field of herbal medicine. It is getting popularized in developing and developed countries owing to its natural origin and lesser side effects. Plants are a valuable source of a wide range of secondary metabolites, which are used as pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, flavours, fragrances, colours, biopesticides and food additives [1-50].
