MUNICIPAL BIO-SOLIDS SOIL APPLICATION: SOIL AND PLANT QUALITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS
(Environmental Sciences, 2022 , Dissertation)
Biosolids are utilized worldwide as an organic fertilizer and can enrich barren soils in Qatar, especially if the proper dosage is used.However, it is crucial to study this newly introduced product to the Qatari environment ...
INVESTIGATION OF SPATIAL AND SEASONAL MICROBIOME DYNAMICS AND ASSOCIATED ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY IN SCLERACTINIAN CORAL PLATYGYRA DAEDALEA IN THE ARABIAN GULF
(Environmental Sciences, 2022 , Master Thesis)
Corals have critical interactions with their associated microbes, which play an integral part in maintaining coral health and stability. Environmental factors can influence the microbial community of the coral resulting ...
INSIGHTS INTO THE NATURAL DEGRADATION RATE OF PLASTICS IN THE SEAWATER ENVIRONMENT AND THEIR DEGRADATION BY-PRODUCTS (PHTHALATES AND BISPHENOL A)
(Environmental Sciences, 2023 , Master Thesis)
Most plastics end up in the oceans. Their chemical additives that leach out into the ocean can be detrimental to humans and animals. This study investigates the degradation-fragmentation of different plastic types for 140 ...
A NEW APPROACH FOR WATER PURIFICATION USING GREEN NANOPARTICLES FABRICATED FROM THE LIME PEEL AS SILVER/COPPER NANOPARTICLES FOR THE "BISPHENOL A" REMEDIATION
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Master Thesis)
One of the most common endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) in the environment is bisphenol A (BPA), which has been linked to various chronic diseases. In light of these concerns, green synthesis of nanoparticles from ...
CONTAMINATION OF ARSENIC IN RICE-BASED BABY FOOD PRODUCTS AND THEIR HEALTH RISKS
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Master Thesis)
This study aims to assess the health risks associated with arsenic exposure in consumers of rice-based infant food products. The consumption patterns of rice-based baby food products among individuals aged 4-12 months in ...
ANTIBODY DEPENDENT ENHANCEMENT (ADE) - CAUSE OF DISEASE SEVERITY IN CORONAVIRUS INFECTED AND/OR VACCINATED INDIVIDUALS
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Master Thesis)
Aim: This study evaluated the potential for ADE in serum samples from patients exposed to SARS-CoV-2 (Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2) and MERS-CoV (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-coronavirus). For ...
ESTABLISMENT, SURVIVAL AND RHIZOSPHERE MICROBIOME OF SELECTED PLANTS IRRIGATED BY GREYWATER FOR SUSTAINABLE URBAN GREENING
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Master Thesis)
Appropriate control of water in suburban green spaces ends up critical as metropolitan populations grow and water shortage represents an urgent issue. This thesis looks at how certain plant species grown for the purpose ...
INVESTIGATION OF TEMPORAL VARIABILITY OF CORALS REVEALED BY ROV VIDEOS AT OIL PLATFORMS IN THE ARABIAN GULF
(Environmental Sciences, 2023 , Master Thesis)
The study was conducted at AL-Shaheen oil field within the Arabian Gulf using remotely operated vehicle (ROV) footages in different oil platforms to investigate the impact of platform depth, age, and weight on coral relative ...
TREATMENT OF RAW SEWAGE WASTEWATER IN A PILOT SCALE PLANT THROUGH A NOVEL METHOD USING MICROALGAE, AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE PRODUCED BIOMASS FOR FERTI-IRRIGATION: A QATARI CASESTUDY
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Master Thesis)
Global population is on the rise. Water scarcity and demand is at an all-time high. Yet anthropogenic activities keep increasing the amount of wastewater in the environment. While humans have developed wastewater treatment ...
MONITORING AND BIOCONTROL APPROACHES TO REDUCE THE IMPACT OF MYCOTOXINS IN CAMEL AND CATTLE FEED AND RELATED FOOD CHAIN
(Biological and Environmental Sciences, 2024 , Dissertation)
The presence of fungi and their associated mycotoxins in agricultural commodities is a worldwide problem leading to mycotoxins contamination in feed and animal products. This results in mycotoxins' carry-over to human ...
