Investigation and Biological Control of Toxigenic Fungi and Mycotoxins in Dairy Cattle Feed
(Environmental Sciences, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites synthesized by mycotoxigenic fungi,
contaminating human and animal food and feed. Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and ochratoxins
(OTA) are frequently detected in animal feed products causing ...
Optimization and Stabilization of P-Type BISBTE/GRAPHENE Nanocomposites for Efficient Thermoelectric Energy Conversion
(Material Science and Technology, 2020 , Master Thesis)
The state-of-the-art Bismuth Antimony Telluride (BiSbTe) alloys have a
promising potential to advance thermoelectric applications in energy harvesting for
efficient power generation and active refrigeration. In this ...
Proportional Hazard Regression Model Under Partly Interval-Censoring Assumption with Application to Prison Data
(Applied Statistics, 2020 , Master Thesis)
In this thesis the analysis of well-known model in survival study that is Cox
proportional hazard regression model via prison Partly Interval Censored (PIC) data is
used. The maximum likelihood estimate was considered ...
Fabrication of Heterostructured TiO2 Nanorods for Enhanced Solar Water Splitting
(Materials Science and Technology, 2020 , Master Thesis)
As global population growth and energy demand keep to ramp up, green and sustainable energy production with environmental concerns has become as one of the most serious challenges over the past years. Photocatalysis is a ...
Cadmium, an Environmental Contaminant with a Potential Role In Modulating Cardiac Matrix Metalloproteinases
(Environmental Sciences, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal that is found in the environment from
both natural and anthropogenic sources. It is a xenobiotic environmental pollutant
with no known essential biological functions. Exposure to ...
PREPARATION OF POLYSTYRENE/ NICKEL OXIDE NANOCOMPOSITE SUPERHYDROPHOBIC COATING FOR PROTECTION AGAINST CORROSION
(Material Science and Technology, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Many technologies have been studied carefully to overcome the corrosion phenomenon of various metal species found in nature. Among these, the high water repellent surfaces have received significant attention from researchers ...
Impact of Prolonged Exposure to Sour Service on the Mechanical Properties and Corrosion Mechanism of Nace Carbon Steel Material Used In Wet Sour Gas Multiphase Pipeline in Qatar
(Material Science and Technology, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Oil and Gas industries involve severe corrosive/sour environmental conditions due
to H2S and CO2 and moisture content. The National Association of Corrosion Engineers, NACE,
has developed standards to enable the users ...
THE INFLUENCE OF SHEAR STRESS ON NANOMATERIAL'S UPTAKE BY CANCER
(Material Science and Technology, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Recently, nanotechnology products have been used for a variety of applications including the medical field. Two dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted a growing interest due to its unique properties and ultrathin ...
Investigation of the Role of Carbonic Anhydrase in Mineral Formation and Magnesium Incorporation by Bacteria from Qatari Sabkhas and Marine Sediments
(Biological and Environmental Science, 2020 , Master Thesis)
Mineral-forming bacteria are of great interest in arid environments specifically. These
environments are favorable for enhancing the microbial carbonate deposition that is
thought to largely influence the sedimentary ...
Prospects of Biocrude Production Potential from Local Diatom
(Environmental Sciences, 2020 , Master Thesis)
A marine diatom Nitzchia reversa was grown in 5 sq. m open raceway pond (10
cm culture depth, 500 L culture volume) in the Qatari desert environment. After 7
days of growth, the final biomass density reached 0.52 g/L, ...
