(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
Different BN/TiO2 nanocomposites were prepared hydrothermally, and their ratio was optimized to get the best photocatalytic performance towards phenol degradation. They were characterized by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ...
Estimating Seroprevalence of Herpes Simplex Virus Type 1 among Different Middle East and North African Male Populations Residing in Qatar
(
Wiley
, 2017 , Article)
HSV-1 epidemiology in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) remains poorly understood. Our study aimed to measure HSV-1 antibody prevalence (seroprevalence) and its age-distribution among select MENA populations residing ...

(
Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins
, 2018 , Article)
BACKGROUND:
There are limited data on herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) seroprevalence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). We examined country- and age-specific HSV-2 seroprevalence among select MENA populations ...
