Isolation of a Novel Kluyveromyces marxianus Strain QKM-4 and Evidence of Its Volatilome Production and Binding Potentialities in the Biocontrol of Toxigenic Fungi and Their Mycotoxins
( American Chemical Society , 2020 , Article)To overcome the economic losses associated with fungi and their toxic metabolites, environmentally safe and efficient approaches are needed. To this end, biological control using yeasts and safe bacterial strains and their ... -
Isolation of bacterial strains from compost teas and screening of their PGPR properties on potato plants
( Springer , 2022 , Article)The beneficial effect of compost and compost tea on plant growth and protection is mainly associated with the microbial diversity and the presence of bacteria with plant growth–promoting effect. PGPR are considered as ... -

( Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH , 2022 , Article)The beneficial effect of compost and compost tea on plant growth and protection is mainly associated with the microbial diversity and the presence of bacteria with plant growth-promoting effect. PGPR are considered as ... -
ISOLATION OF ENDOGENOUS LACTIC ACID BACTERIA AND DEVELOPMENT OF SILAGE OF PALM TREES LEAVES FOR LIVESTOCK IN QATAR
(2022 , Master Thesis)In Qatar, there are relatively low agricultural by-products available, mainly from palm trees for feeding livestock. Preservation of palm leaves is a problem due to harsh environmental conditions. Ensiling palm leaves with ... -
Isolation of entomopathogenic Bacillus from a biodynamic olive farm and their pathogenicity to lepidopteran and coleopteran insect pests
( Elsevier Ltd , 2012 , Article)The occurrence of Bacillus entomopathogenic bacteria on a Tunisian biodynamic farm was determined by examining 75 samples from olive tree (Olea europaea L.) habitats. A total of 40 Bacillus isolates were characterized ... -
Isolation of the Bacillus thuringiensis plasmid carrying Bacthuricin F4 coding genes and evidence of its conjugative transfer
( The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries , 2014 , Article)INTRODUCTION: Conjugation is an excellent natural mode of DNA transfer in vivo between bacteria, particularly when these conjugative elements carry technological traits such as bacteriocin encoding genes. In the present ... -
Isolation, cultivation, and characterization of novel local marine micro-algae for aquaculture feed supplement production
( Qatar University Press , 2020 , Poster)Aquaculture is considered as a promising alternative to support the food demands of the ever-increasing population. Currently, this sector faces several challenges such as using fishmeal, which is unsustainable and expensive. ... -
Isolation, differentiation and biodiversity of ureolytic bacteria of Qatari soil and their potential in microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) for soil stabilization
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2018 , Article)Biomineralization plays a key role in modifying the geological properties of soil, thereby stabilizing it against wind erosion, especially in areas characterized by harsh weather and harsh soil (calcareous and arid); i.e. ... -
Isolation, identification and biodiversity of antiscalant degrading seawater bacteria using MALDI-TOF-MS and multivariate analysis
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) is a commonly used desalination technique owing to its lesser environmental and economic impacts as compared to thermal desalination techniques. Antiscalants are used in SWRO to reduce ... -
ISOLATION, IDENTIFICATION, DIFFERENTIATION AND SCREENING OF LOCAL AEROBIC UREOLYTIC BACTERIA INVOLVED IN MICROBIALLY INDUCED CALCIUM CARBONATE PRECIPITATION IN QATARI SOIL.
(2018 , Master Thesis)Biomineralization plays an important role in stabilizing the soil by modifying its geological and physical properties, hence, acting as a stabilizer against wind erosion specially in regions characterized by harsh soil ... -
Isolation, screening and activity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from harsh soils
( Avestia Publishing , 2016 , Conference Paper)The study of microbial communities in relation to their ecology, interaction, and genetics must be covered in Qatar with special soil, weather and water. Microorganisms of an environment never having been exposed to such ... -
Isomorphic Hilbert spaces associated with different complex contours of the PT-symmetric (-x^4) theory
( World Scientific Publishing Co. , 2014 , Article)In this work, we stress the existence of isomorphisms which map complex contours from the upper half to contours in the lower half of the complex plane. The metric operator is found to depend on the chosen contour but the ... -
Isoperimetric properties of condenser capacity
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)For compact subsets E of the unit disk D we study the capacity of the condenser (D,E) by means of set functionals defined in terms of hyperbolic geometry. In particular, we study experimentally the case of a hyperbolic ... -
Isothermal crystallization kinetics and morphology of double crystalline PCL/PBS blends mixed with a polycarbonate/MWCNTs masterbatch
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)In this work, the 70/30 and 30/70 w/w polycaprolactone (PCL)/polybutylene succinate (PBS) blends and their corresponding PCL/PBS/(polycarbonate (PC)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) masterbatch) nanocomposites were ... -
"It brings out the best": Incorporating positive health into health promotion initiatives from the UAE's physically active
( Springer , 2019 , Book chapter)Traditional health promotion efforts focus on reducing factors that contribute to ill-health, such as sedentary behavior or smoking. Yet, this focus on negative or deficit behaviors overlooks those who engage in positive ... -
