Purification and characterization of a new Bacillus thuringiensis bacteriocin active against Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus and Agrobacterium tumefaciens
( Springer Science , 2011 , Article)This study reports on the identification, characterization and purification of a new bacteriocin, named Bacthuricin F103, from a Bacillus thuringiensis strain BUPM103. Bacthuricin F103 production began in the early exponential ... -
Purification and characterization of an extracellular phenol oxidase from culture filtrates of Pyricularia oryzae
( NRC Research Press , 1996 , Article)Extracellular phenol oxidase activity was characterized and compared in Pyricularia oryzae wild-type and albino cell types to determine if this phenol oxidase was responsible for lack of melanization in the albino culture. ... -
Purification of colloidal oil in water emulsions by cationic adsorbent prepared from recycled polyethylene waste
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article)This study deals with removing crude oil droplets from colloidal oil in water emulsions. The target was the development of efficient adsorbents for the tertiary treatment of industrial-produced water (PW). The novel adsorbent ... -
Purification of emulsified oily polluted waters with modified melamine foams
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Oil and gas industry operations produce tremendous amounts of wastewater (produced water; PW). Tertiary treatment of the PW in the final treatment stage is challenging due to the presence of colloids with sizes < 500 nm ... -
Purpose of the book and editorial perspectives
( Springer International Publishing , 2015 , Book chapter)Engineering and engineering education play an essential role in the Middle East. Global debates regarding roles of engineering and required transformations in engineering education have been extensive during the past few ... -
PV power prediction in Qatar based on machine learning approach
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2018 , Conference Paper)PV output power is highly sensitive to many environmental parameters, hence, power available from plants based on this technology will be affected, especially in harsh environments such that of Gulf countries. In order to ... -
PV/Battery Grid Integration Using a Modular Multilevel Isolated SEPIC-Based Converter
( MDPI , 2022 , Article)Photovoltaic (PV) plants can be built rapidly when compared with other conventional electrical plants; hence, they are a competent candidate for supplying the electricity grid. The output power of the PV modules can be ... -
PWM scheme for dual matrix converters based five-phase open-end winding drive
( IEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)The paper present simple carrier-based pulse width modulation scheme for three to five-phase matrix converters feeding a five-phase machine from both ends. The two matrix converters feeding a five-phase induction machine ... -
PyGOP: A Python library for Generalized Operational Perceptron algorithms
