Anti-bacterial self-assembled nanotubes of cyclic d, l-alpha-peptides
Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Ghadiri, M. Reza (AIP Publishing, 2007)Cyclic D, L‐α‐peptides can be designed to spontaneously partition into lipid and cell membranes where they self‐assemble into membrane‐permeating nanotubes and result in disruption of membrane potentials leading to rapid ... -
Chemical disinfectants of COVID-19: an overview
Al-Sayah, Mohammad (IWA Publishing, 2020-07)The outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19) has led to a broad use of chemical disinfectants in order to sterilize public spaces and prevent contamination. This paper surveys the chemicals that are effective in deactivating the ... -
Development and Characterization of Novel Composite and Flexible Electrode Based on Titanium Dioxide
Alatoom, Aseel Dirar; Al-Othman, Amani; Al-Nashash, Hasan; Al-Sayah, Mohammad (IEEE, 2020-06-11)Flexible implantable bioelectrodes have the potential to advance neural sensing and muscle stimulation, especially in peripheral nerve injuries. In such cases, the application of electrical stimulation to muscles prevents ... -
Development of Liposome-Based Immunoassay for the Detection of Cardiac Troponin I
Radha, Remya; Al-Sayah, Mohammad (MDPI, 2021)Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the foremost causes of mortality in intensive care units worldwide. The development of a rapid method to quantify cardiac troponin I (cTnI)—the goldstandard biomarker of myocardial ... -
Effect of pH, ultrasound frequency and power density on the release of calcein from stealth liposomes
Ahmed, Salma E.; Moussa, Hesham Gamal; Martins, Ana M.; Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Husseini, Ghaleb (De Gruyter, 2016)The use of liposomes as carriers for chemotherapeutic agents in combination with ultrasound as a stimulus to control the time and space of the drug release is a promising approach for cancer treatment, as it can reduce the ... -
A Fluorescence-Based Chemical Sensor for Detection of Melamine in Aqueous Solutions
Radha, Remya; Vitor, Rute F.; Al-Sayah, Mohammad (MDPI, 2021)Melamine, an industrial chemical, receives wide attention nowadays because of its unethical usage as a nitrogen enhancer in protein-rich foods and dairy products. Since most of the existing melamine detection methods are ... -
Fluorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer for reversible iodine capture and sensing
Sabri, Muhammad Ashraf; Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Sen, Susan; Ibrahim, Taleb; El-Kadri, Oussama (Nature, 2020)A novel triazene-anthracene-based fuorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer (TALPOP) was prepared via metal free-Schif base polycondensation reaction of 9,10-bis-(4,6-diamino-S-triazin2-yl)anthracene and 2-furaldehyde. ... -
Fluorescent Immunoassays for Detection and Quantification of Cardiac Troponin I: A Short Review
Radha, Remya; Shahzadi, Syeda Kiran; Al-Sayah, Mohammad (MDPI, 2021)Cardiovascular diseases are considered one of the major causes of human death globally. Myocardial infarction (MI), characterized by a diminished flow of blood to the heart, presents the highest rate of morbidity and ... -
Gold-Nanoparticle Hybrid Nanostructures for Multimodal Cancer Therapy
Ali, Amaal Abdulraqeb; Abuwatfa, Waad Hussein; Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Husseini, Ghaleb (MDPI, 2022)With the urgent need for bio-nanomaterials to improve the currently available cancer treatments, gold nanoparticle (GNP) hybrid nanostructures are rapidly rising as promising multimodal candidates for cancer therapy. Gold ... -
Modifying cellulose fibres with carbon dots: a promising approach for the development of antimicrobial fibres
Radha, Remya; Makhlouf, Zinb; Diab, Rasha; Al-Sayah, Mohammad (Royal Society, 2024-04-17)This study focuses on the development of antimicrobial fibres for use in medical and healthcare textile industries. Carbon dots (CDs) were designed with boronic acid groups for the attachment to cellulose fibres found in ... -
Targeting Breast Cancer Using Hyaluronic Acid-Conjugated Liposomes Triggered with Ultrasound
Ben-Daya, Mohamed; Paul, Vinod; Awad, Nahid S.; AlSawaftah, Nour Majdi; Al-Sayah, Mohammad; Husseini, Ghaleb (American Science Publishers, 2021)The successful targeting of tumors can be achieved by conjugating targeting moieties to nanoparticles. These modifications allow nannocarriers to achieve greater targeting specificity through binding to specific receptors ...
