Microplastics in coastal environments of the Arabian Gulf
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Eight sandy beaches along the coastline of Qatar and four sea surface stations on the eastern coast, adjacent to Doha Bay, were surveyed between December 2014 and March 2015. Microplastics, mainly low density polyethylene ...
A combined pathway for the synthesis of nitidine family alkaloids
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2019 , Article)
Three related alkaloids, oxynitidine, nitidine and 5,6-dihydronitidine, have been afforded by the new synthetic protocols. In this approach, the Ni-catalyzed annulation reaction is indicated as the key step to construct ...
Influence of bimetallic nanoparticles composition and synthesis temperature on the electrocatalytic activity of NiMn-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
High efficiency, cost effectivity and the availability of hydrogen are the advantages of
electrolysis as a strategy for urea-containing wastewater treatment. Composition,
morphology, and synthesis-temperature distinctly ...
Synthesis of 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles and features of their NMR spectra
(
Wiley
, 2019 , Article)
Two different methods leading to 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles were investigated. Reactions of 3-aminocrotonirile with substituted salicylaldehydes provided 5-oxo-5H-chromeno[3,4-c]pyridine-1-carbonitriles ...
Influence of nitrogen doping on the electrocatalytic activity of Ni-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Overall, boosting the formation of the active NiOOH layer distinctly improves the electro catalytic activity of nickel-based materials. Moreover, due to the adsorption capacity, the carbonaceous supports improve the ...
Ultra-trace determination of 90Sr, 137Cs, 238Pu, 239Pu, and 240Pu by triple quadruple collision/reaction cell-ICP-MS/MS: Establishing a baseline for global fallout in Qatar soil and sediments
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
The development of practical, fast, and reliable methods for the ultra-trace determination of anthropogenic radionuclides 90Sr, 137Cs, 238Pu, 239Pu, and 240Pu by triple quadruple collision/reaction cell inductively coupled ...
Natural and depleted uranium in the topsoil of Qatar: Is it something to worry about?
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
This study examines uranium in soils of Qatar to investigate whether there is any detectable traces of depleted uranium (DU). 409 soil samples were collected using a 10km grid system throughout the State of Qatar. The U ...
A market basket survey of As, Zn and Se in rice imports in Qatar: Health implications
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Qatar is dependent on importation of rice, its staple dish, and is therefore susceptible to compromises of food quality in the global market. This market basket study assesses potential health risks of As exposure from ...
Preparation and Preliminary Dielectric Characterization of Structured C-Thiol-Ene Polymer Nanocomposites Assembled Using the Thiol-Ene Click Reaction.
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2015 , Article)
Fullerene-containing materials have the ability to store and release electrical energy. Therefore, fullerenes may ultimately find use in high-voltage equipment devices or as super capacitors for high electric energy storage ...
Ultra-trace Measurements of 210Pb in natural occurring radioactive materials by ICP-MS
(
Elsevier
, 2010 , Article)
Collision cell inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (CC-ICP-MS) was investigated as a possible alternative to nuclear analytical techniques for the determination of 210Pb. The formation of isobaric and polyatomic ...
