Assessment of the Environmental Status of the Mangrove Ecosystem in the United Arab Emirates
(MDPI, 2020)
In the Arabian Gulf, mangroves play a particularly important role in maintaining biodiversity. Water and intertidal sediments were collected from eight sampling locations in April 2017 to assess the environmental status ...
Heterometrus spinifer: An Untapped Source of Anti-Tumor Molecules
(MDPI, 2020)
Despite intensive research, cancer incidence and mortality continue to rise. Consequently, the necessity to develop effective anti-cancer therapy is apparent. We have recently shown that the gut bacteria of animals living ...
Using C++ to Calculate SO(10) Tensor Couplings
(MDPI, 2021-10-04)
Model building in SO(10), which is the leading grand unification framework, often involves large Higgs representations and their couplings. Explicit calculations of such couplings is a multi-step process that involves ...
Fluorescent Immunoassays for Detection and Quantification of Cardiac Troponin I: A Short Review
(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 ...
A Procedural Analysis of kadhalik in Modern Standard Arabic: Demonstrative or Discourse Marker?
(Emerald, 2011)
The objective of this chapter is to apply a procedural analysis to the demonstrative form kadhalik in Modern Standard Arabic. It is argued that the form kadhalik can function either as a demonstrative or as a discourse ...
Investigation and Optimization of Mxene functionalized Mesoporous Titania Films as Efficient Photoelectrodes
(MDPI, 2021)
Three-dimensional mesoporous TiO₂ scaffolds of anatase phase possess inherent eximious optical behavior that is beneficial for photoelectrodes used for solar energy conversion applications. In this regard; substantial ...
Development of Liposome-Based Immunoassay for the Detection of Cardiac Troponin I
(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 ...
A Fluorescence-Based Chemical Sensor for Detection of Melamine in Aqueous Solutions
(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 ...
On the precision of full-spectrum fitting of simple stellar populations. IV. A systematic comparison with results from colour-magnitude diagrams
(Oxford University Press, 2022-03)
In this fourth paper of a series on the precision of ages of stellar populations obtained through the full-spectrum fitting technique, we present a first systematic analysis that compare the age, metallicity and reddening ...
Embedding and global stability in periodic 2-dimensional maps of mixed monotonicity
(Elsevier, 2022-02)
In this paper, we consider nonautonomous second order difference equations of the form xn+1 = F(n, xn, xn−1), where F is p-periodic in its first component, non-decreasing in its second component and non-increasing in its ...
