In Vitro Cell Work of Two Types of Targeted Nanoparticles with Ultrasound Triggering
(2020-11)Targeted liposomes have shown promising potential as effective chemotherapeutics delivery vehicles in Smart Drug Delivery Systems (SDDSs). Upon accumulation and internalization at the tumor site, the liposomes need to be ... -
In vitro effects of multi-purpose contact lens disinfecting solutions towards survivability of Acanthamoeba genotype T4 in Malaysia
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)The incidence of Acanthamoeba keratitis has been increasing since the previous decades, especially among contact lens users. This infection is majorly caused by the use of ineffective contact lens disinfecting solution. ... -
In Vitro Evaluation of Ultrasound Effectiveness in Controlling Doxorubicin Release from Albumin-Conjugated Liposomes
(American Scientific Publishers, 2022)Functionalized liposomes are among the most promising antineoplastic agents delivery vehicles. Contemporaneous to their accretion at the tumor site, they need to be potentiated to release their cargo using a suitable ... -
In-Between Projection Interpolation in Cone-Beam CT Imaging using Convolutional Neural Networks
(Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE), 2022)Respiratory-Correlated cone beam computed tomography (4D-CBCT) is an emerging image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) technique that is used to account for the uncertainties caused by respiratory-induced motion in the ... -
In-Vehicle Performance Validation of the Semi-Active Hybrid Energy Storage System
(2015)A hybrid energy storage system (HESS) consisting of high-energy-density batteries and high-power-density Ultra-capacitors (UCs) can perform better than a battery alone powering an Electric Vehicle. Hybrid energy storage ... -
In-Vitro Degradation of Hollow Silica Reinforced Magnesium Syntactic Foams in Different Simulated Body Fluids for Biomedical Applications
(MDPI, 2020)This article reports the mechanical and biocorrosion behaviour of hollow silica nanosphere (SiO₂) reinforced (0.5–2 vol.%) magnesium (Mg) syntactic foams. Room temperature tensile properties’ characterization suggests that ... -
Incorporating Computer-Aided Software in the Undergraduate Chemical Engineering Core Courses
(Chemical Engineering Education, 2014)Introductions of computer-aided software and simulators are implemented during the sophomore-year of the chemical engineering (ChE) curriculum at the American University of Sharjah (AUS). Our faculty concurs that software ... -
Incorporating nanoparticles in 3D printed scaffolds for bone cancer therapy
(Elsevier, 2023)The low occurrence rate of bone cancer contributes to delayed diagnosis and treatment; in addition, the surgical resection of bone tumors can cause significant bone defects, further hindering the effective treatment of the ... -
Incremental and Heuristic Algorithms for Deriving Adaptive Distinguishing Test Cases for Nondeterministic Finite State Machines
(2017-09)Many methods are proposed for the construction of distinguishing test cases (DTCs) based on a specification given in the form of a Finite State Machine (FSM). In FSM-based testing, we have a black-box FSM Implementation ... -
Independent Sustainable City
(2015-02-01)Nowadays, cities are mostly relying on non-renewable sources of energy such as fossil fuels. The International Energy Agency estimates that in 2011, 81.2% of the world’s primary sources of energy came from fossil fuels. -
