We consider the classes Mβ
i
and Nβ
i
of the analytic functions and two general integral opera-
tors. We prove some properties for these operators on these classes.

1. Introduction
Let U {z ∈ C, |z| < 1} be the open unit disk and let A denote the class of the functions fz
of the form
fzz a

z

z

···,z∈ U, 1.1
which are analytic in the open disk U.
Let Mβ be the subclass of A, consisting of the functions fz, which satisfy the inequal-
ity
Re
zf
z
fz
<β, z∈ U,β>1, 1.2
and let Nβ be the subclass of A, consisting of functions fz, which satisfy the inequality

These classes are studied by Uralegaddi et al. in 1, and Owa and Srivastava in 2.

It is easy to see that these integral operators are analytic operators.

So the relation 2.12 implies that the operator F
