Adsorption characteristics of pristine and magnetic olive stones biochar with respect to clofazimine
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)Olive stone biochars (OSBC), both pristine and following magnetization (MAG–OSBC), were utilized as eco‐friendly and cost‐effective sorbents for the antituberculosis, clofazimine (CLOF). Morphologies, textures, surface ... -
Application of Pineapple Leaves as Adsorbents for Removal of Rose Bengal from Wastewater: Process Optimization Operating Face-Centered Central Composite Design (FCCCD)
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2020 , Article)Adsorptive removal of rose bengal (RB) from contaminated water samples was approached using pineapple leaves (PAL). Three adsorbents were utilized for that purpose; raw pineapple leaves (RPAL) and the thermally activated ... -
Biochar of spent coffee grounds as per se and impregnated with tio2: Promising waste-derived adsorbents for balofloxacin
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)Biochars (BC) of spent coffee grounds, both pristine (SCBC) and impregnated with titanium oxide (TiO2 @SCBC) were exploited as environmentally friendly and economical sorbents for the fluroquinolone antibiotic balofloxacin ... -
A Comparison between Different Agro-wastes and Carbon Nanotubes for Removal of Sarafloxacin from Wastewater: Kinetics and Equilibrium Studies
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2020 , Article)In the current study, eco-structured and efficient removal of the veterinary fluoroquinolone antibiotic sarafloxacin (SARA) from wastewater has been explored. The adsorptive power of four agro-wastes (AWs) derived from ... -
Computational study on the mechanism of the photouncaging reaction of vemurafenib: Toward an enhanced photoprotection approach for photosensitive drugs
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)The photochemical behavior of the photosensitive first-line anticancer drug vemurafenib (VFB) is of great interest due to the impact of such behavior on its pharmacological activity. In this work, we computationally ... -
Eco-structured adsorptive removal of tigecycline from wastewater: Date pits’ biochar versus the magnetic biochar
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2020 , Article)Non-magnetic and magnetic low-cost biochar (BC) from date pits (DP) were applied to remove tigecycline (TIGC) from TIGC-artificially contaminated water samples. Pristine biochar from DP (BCDP) and magnetite-decorated biochar ... -
Green tea waste as an efficient adsorbent for methylene blue: Structuring of a novel adsorbent using full factorial design
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2021 , Article)Adsorptive removal of methylene blue (MB) from contaminated water samples was achieved using green tea waste (GTW). Adsorption of MB onto raw (RGTW) and thermally treated waste (TTGTW250–TTGTW500) was explored. The performance ... -
MicroRNA205: A Key Regulator of Cardiomyocyte Transition from Proliferative to Hypertrophic Growth in the Neonatal Heart
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2024 , Article)The mammalian myocardium grows rapidly during early development due to cardiomyocyte proliferation, which later transitions to cell hypertrophy to sustain the heart’s postnatal growth. Although this cell transition in the ... -
Performance of Pristine versus Magnetized Orange Peels Biochar Adapted to Adsorptive Removal of Daunorubicin: Eco-Structuring, Kinetics and Equilibrium Studies
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2023 , Article)Drugs and pharmaceuticals are an emergent class of aquatic contaminants. The existence of these pollutants in aquatic bodies is currently raising escalating concerns because of their negative impact on the ecosystem. This ... -
Regulatory Mechanisms That Guide the Fetal to Postnatal Transition of Cardiomyocytes
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2023 , Article)Heart disease remains a global leading cause of death and disability, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of the heart’s development, repair, and dysfunction. This review surveys recent discoveries that explore the ...
