Chronic Cadmium Exposure Alters Cardiac Matrix Metalloproteinases in the Heart of Sprague-Dawley Rat
(
Frontiers Media
, 2021 , Article)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of chronic cadmium exposure in modulating cardiac matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in the heart of rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 15 ppm CdCl2 in drinking ...
Recycling of gas-to-liquid sludge as a potential organic amendment: Effect on soil and cotton properties under hyperarid conditions
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Gas-to-liquid (GTL) sludge is a specific wastewater treatment by-product, which is generated during the industrial process of natural gas conversion to transportation fuels. This least studied sludge is pathogen-free and ...
In vitro effects of photobiomodulation therapy on 50B11 sensory neurons: evaluation of cell metabolism, oxidative stress, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and capsaicin-induced calcium flow
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
The analgesic properties of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) have been raising increasing interest in the clinical community due to the positive effects observed on patients, nevertheless the mechanistic basis of its ...
Development of a novel tailored ion-imprinted polymer for recovery of lithium and strontium from reverse osmosis concentrated brine
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
This study aims to prepare ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) with the benefit of a metal-based sorbent, which is fabricated to selectively adsorb lithium (Li+) from aqueous solutions, and in an attempt to remove strontium (Sr2+). ...
Different molecular pathways are disrupted in Pyoderma gangrenosum patients and are associated with the severity of the disease.
(
Nature Research
, 2023 , Article)
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare inflammatory skin disease classified within the spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses. The pathophysiology of PG is yet incompletely understood but a prominent role of genetics facilitating ...
Modified os sepiae of Sepiella inermis as a low cost, sustainable, bio-based adsorbent for the effective remediation of boron from aqueous solution
(
Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH
, 2022 , Article)
The occurrence of boron in low concentration is essential; however, a higher concentration of boron source in water has a toxic effect on humans as well as have retard effect on agricultural plant growth. Thus, the affordable ...
A better understanding of seawater reverse osmosis brine: Characterizations, uses, and energy requirements
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Before investing in any optimizing technology for the recovery and reuse of brine resources, it is of importance to study the full physicochemical characteristics of the brine. In the current study, the physicochemical ...
Functionalized cellulose nanocrystals as a novel adsorption material for removal of boron from water
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This study aims to prepare a novel adsorbent containing cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) isolated from date pits (DP) and ionic liquid (IL). The prepared composite of CNC and IL was then loaded onto the DP to prepare IL-CNC@DP ...
Novel insights into the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet using nano-hazelnut shell from aqueous solution
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This paper discusses the nanoadsorption mechanisms of crystal violet (CV) using a nano-hazelnut shell (nano-HS) from an aqueous solution. The effect of various factors such as pH, temperature, and initial CV concentration ...
Neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 are higher but decline faster in mRNA vaccinees compared to individuals with natural infection.
(
Oxford University Press
, 2022 , Article)
Waning protection against emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants by pre-existing antibodies elicited due to current vaccination or natural infection is a global concern. Whether this is due to the waning of immunity to SARS-COV-2 ...
