Qatar Biobank: A Paradigm of Translating Biobank Science into Evidence-Based Health Care Interventions
(
Mary Ann Liebert
, 2019 , Article)
Biobank science is progressively becoming indispensable for the development of novel diagnostic tools in health care, by pairing standardized high-quality biological samples, phenotypic, and omics data required to best ...
Diversity of benthic macrofauna and physical parameters of sediments in natural mangroves and in afforested mangroves three decades after compensatory planting
(
Springer
, 2018 , Article)
Mangroves in the Arabian Gulf are under pressure from land use change, leading to compensatory planting at sites without
natural mangroves. In this study, we examine the potential long-term success of this form of ...
Intergraded wastewater treatment and carbon bio-fixation from flue gases using Spirulina platensis and mixed algal culture
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2019 , Article)
In this work, Spirulina platensis (SP.PL) and mixed algal culture (M.X) were used as an economical treatment technology to solve dual environmental issues related to carbon dioxide (CO2) capturing and wastewater treatment. ...

Pt-doped armchair graphene nanoribbon as a promising gas sensor for CO and CO2: DFT study
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
In this work, four armchair graphene nanoribbon (AGNR) based sensor materials were built using Atomistic ToolKit Virtual NanoLab (ATK-VNL) and utilized to detect carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) gases. First, ...
Fabrication of H2S gas sensors using ZnxCu1-xFe2O4 nanoparticles
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
Spinel ferrite nanoparticles can be easily retrieved and utilized for multiple cycles due to their magnetic properties. In this work, nanoparticles of a ZnxCu1-xFe2O4 composition were synthesized by employing a sol–gel ...
SOLD: A node-Splitting algorithm for R-tree based on Objects' Locations Distribution
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2019 , Article)
Spatial data indexing methods are of extreme importance as they massively build up as a result of the explosive growth in capturing data with spatial features. No matter how much the data size is, eventually it will reside ...
Conception, Implementation, and Integration of Heterogenous Information Technology Infrastructures in the Qatar Biobank
(
Mary Ann Liebert
, 2019 , Article)
The overall goal of the Qatar Biobank (QBB) is to collect, manage, and distribute high-quality human biospecimens with appropriate clinical and/or research annotation and associated phenotypic data, aiming to be an important ...

(
Blackwell Publishing Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
Pure ZnO and Yttrium-doped (Y-doped) ZnO at various mol% with flower-like nanostructures are synthesized by a microwave-assisted sol�gel method, followed by investigating the morphologies, crystal structures, optical ...
Influence of temperature, salinity and Mg:Ca ratio on microbially-mediated formation of Mg-rich carbonates by Virgibacillus strains isolated from a sabkha environment.
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article)
Studies have demonstrated that microbes facilitate the incorporation of Mg into carbonate minerals, leading to the formation of potential dolomite precursors. Most microbes that are capable of mediating Mg-rich carbonates ...
