Isolation and characterization of extracellular bioflocculants produced by bacteria isolated from Qatari ecosystems
( POLISH SOCIETY OF MICROBIOLOGISTS , 2008 , Article)Compared with conventional synthetic flocculants, bioflocculants has special advantages such as safety, strong effect, biodegradable and harmlessness to humans and the environment, so they may potentially be applied in ... -
Isolation and identification in human blood serum of the proteins possessing the ability to bind with 48 kDa form of unconventional myosin 1c and their possible diagnostic and prognostic value
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)We firstly identified 48 kDa molecular form of the unconventional myosin 1c (p48/Myo1C), and isolated it from blood serum of multiple sclerosis patients. The amount of p48/Myo1C in human blood serum correlated with some ... -
Isolation and Identification of Organics-Degrading Bacteria From Gas-to-Liquid Process Water
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2021 , Article)The gas-to-liquid (GTL) process generates considerable amounts of wastewater that are highly acidic and characterized by its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) content, due to the presence of several organic pollutants, ... -
