Isolation and Physicochemical Characterization of Laccase from Ganoderma lucidum-CDBT1 Isolated from Its Native Habitat in Nepal
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2016 , Article)
At present, few organisms are known to and capable of naturally producing laccases and white rot fungi are one such group. In the
present study, three fungal species, namely, Ganoderma lucidum-CDBT1, Ganoderma japonicum, ...
Algal toxins and producers in the marine waters of Qatar, Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Harmful Algal Bloom species are ubiquitous and their blooms occur in the Arabian Gulf. In this study, two cruises were performed in 2012 and 2013 to collect phytoplankton samples from 4 sites in the Arabian Gulf. Toxin ...
Effect of delay in diagnosis on the rate of tuberculosis among close contacts of tuberculosis patients
(
World Health Organization
, 2013 , Article)
Few studies have explored diagnosis delay by tuberculosis (TB) patients and its effects on the rate of infection among their close contacts. A cross-sectional study of the close contacts of 505 newly diagnosed TB patients ...
25-Hydroxyvitamin D Concentrations and Clostridium difficile Infection: A Meta-Analysis
(
SAGE Publications Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Background: Well-known risk factors for Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) are exposure to antibiotics and gastric acid suppressants. Recent studies have provided some evidence of an association between hypovitaminosis ...

Progressive Operational Perceptrons
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
There are well-known limitations and drawbacks on the performance and robustness of the feed-forward, fully-connected Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), or the so-called Multi-Layer Perceptrons (MLPs). In this study we ...
Combining Fisher locality preserving projections and passband DCT for efficient palmprint recognition
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper a new graph based approach referred to as Fisher Locality Preserving Projections (FLPP) is proposed for efficient palmprint recognition. The technique employs two graphs with the first being used to characterize ...
Magnetic mesoporous nanospheres anchored with LyP-1 as an efficient pancreatic cancer probe
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Immobilization of a ligand that selectively interacts with cancer cells to nanomaterials can enhance their diagnostic and therapeutic efficiency. In this study, we firstly demonstrate the high expression of receptor for ...
Intercalation of ionic liquids into bentonite: Swelling and rheological behaviors
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
In this study, direct intercalation of three different green ionic liquids (ILs) having different salt and cation sizes into bentonite interlayer is investigated. The ILs covered in this study are: 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium ...
Controlled design of PtPd nanodendrite ornamented niobium oxynitride nanosheets for solar-driven water splitting
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2018 , Article)
Developing efficient photocatalysts for the water splitting reaction is crucial in a fuel cell reaction. Herein, we present a facile road-map for one-pot fabrication of PtPd nanodendrite (ND) ornamented niobium oxynitride ...
