Candidate gene discovery for the biofortification of wheat grains with essential micronutrients for global food security
( Cereal Research Non-Profit Company , 2024 , Article)Mineral biofortification of wheat grains is a critical aspect of agricultural research and development that aims to enhance the nutritional content of wheat, a staple food consumed worldwide. Therefore, understanding the ... -
Chelation-assisted soft-template synthesis of ordered mesoporous zinc oxides for low concentration gas sensing
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2016 , Article)Semiconductor zinc oxides with a high surface area and porosity offer great potential for their widespread applications, particularly in the areas of optoelectronic devices and solid-state gas sensors owing to their ... -
Comparative computational assessment of the pathogenicity of mutations in the Aspartoacylase enzyme
( Springer US , 2017 , Article)Aspartoacylase (ASPA) is a zinc-dependent abundant enzyme in the brain, which catalyzes the conversion of N-acetyl aspartate (NAA) into acetate and aspartate. Mutations in the ASPA gene are associated with the development ... -
Effect of fuel content on the electrocatalytic methanol oxidation performance of Pt/ZnO nanoparticles synthesized by solution combustion
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)We report the effect of combustion synthesis conditions on Pt nanoparticle (NP) supported on ZnO (Pt/ZnO) electrocatalysts for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). The Pt/ZnO NPs are prepared by solution combustion synthesis ... -
Evaluation of academic detailing programme on childhood diarrhoea management by primary healthcare providers in Banke district of Nepal
( International Center for Diarrhoeal Disease Research , 2013 , Article)Academic detailing is rarely practised in developing countries. A randomized control trial on healthcare service was conducted to evaluate the impact of academic detailing programme on the adherence of primary healthcare ... -
Hybrid transparent conductive electrodes with copper nanowires embedded in a zinc oxide matrix and protected by reduced graphene oxide platelets
( American Institute of Physics Inc. , 2016 , Article)Transparent conductive electrodes (TCE) were fabricated by combining three emerging nano-materials: copper nanowires (CuNWs), zinc oxide (ZnO) nano-particulate thin films, and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) platelets. Whereas ... -
PdZn nanoparticle electrocatalysts synthesized by solution combustion for methanol oxidation reaction in an alkaline medium
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2017 , Article)Herein, we report the synthesis of PdZn nanoparticle (NP) electrocatalysts for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). The PdZn NPs were synthesized by solution combustion synthesis in the presence of Pd(NO3)2·xH2O, ... -
Sol-gel deposition and plasma treatment of intrinsic, aluminum-doped and gallium-doped zinc oxide thin films as transparent conductive electrodes
( SPIE , 2015 , Conference Paper)Zinc oxide and aluminum/gallium-doped zinc oxide thin films were deposited via sol-gel spin-coating technique. Employing plasma treatment as alternative to post thermal annealing, we found that the morphologies of these ... -
The Association between Zinc and Copper and Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Adults
( Qatar University Press , 2021 , Poster)Cardiometabolic risk (CMR) factors increase the likelihood of developing cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In Qatar, 24% of the total deaths are attributed to CVDs. Several nutritional disturbances have been linked to high ... -
Use of post-stratification in composite sampling for estimating mean
( Springer , 2011 , Article)We show with the results of a study conducted in the Hamadan Province, Iran as to how the use of composite sampling for estimating mean zinc concentration in the soil can help reduce analytical costs by reducing the number ...
