Faculty use of the course management system (CMS) iLearn at the American University of Sharjah
(Zayed University Press, 2013)That course management systems (CMS) are relevant to higher education is beyond question. Tertiary institutions invest significant resources in developing CMS and promoting their use by faculty members. Considerable research ... -
Few-cycle laser driven reaction nanoscopy on aerosolized silica nanoparticles
(Springer Nature, 2019)Nanoparticles offer unique properties as photocatalysts with large surface areas. Under irradiation with light, the associated near-fields can induce, enhance, and control molecular adsorbate reactions on the nanoscale. ... -
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 ... -
Fluorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer for reversible iodine capture and sensing
(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
(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 ... -
Folding and unfolding in periodic difference equations
(Elseiver, 2014)Given a p-periodic difference equation xn+1 = fn mod p(xn), where each fj is a continuous interval map, j = 0, 1, . . . , p − 1, we discuss the notion of folding and unfolding related to this type of non-autonomous equations. ... -
Fractional Integrodifferentiation and Toeplitz Operators with Vertical Symbols
(Birkhäuser, 2020)We consider the so-called vertical Toeplitz operators on the weighted Bergman space over the half plane. The terminology “vertical” is motivated by the fact that if a is a symbol of such Toeplitz operator, then a(z) depends ... -

Freshwater budget in the Persian (Arabian) Gulf and exchanges at the Strait of Hormuz
(PLOS, 2020-05-29)Excess evaporation within the Persian (also referred as the Arabian) Gulf induces an inverse-estuary circulation. Surface waters are imported, via the Strait of Hormuz, while saltier waters are exported in the deeper layers. ... -

A Global Attractor in Some Discrete Contest Competition Models with Delay under the Effect of Periodic Stocking
(Hindawi, 2013)We consider discrete models of the form 𝒳ₙ₊₁= 𝒳ₙ𝒇(𝒳ₙ₋₁) + 𝒉ₙ , where 𝒉ₙ is a nonnegative 𝒑-periodic sequence representing stocking in the population, and investigate their dynamics. Under certain conditions on the ... -
Gold-Conjugated Curcumin as a Novel Therapeutic Agent against Brain-Eating Amoebae
(ACS Publications, 2020)Balamuthia mandrillaris and Naegleria fowleri are free-living amoebae that cause infection of the central nervous system, granulomatous amoebic encephalitis (GAE) and primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), respectively. ... -
Gold-Nanoparticle Hybrid Nanostructures for Multimodal Cancer Therapy
(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 ... -
Grammaticalization and Degrammaticalization in an Arabic Existential Particle šay
(Polska Akademia Nauk (PAN), 2017-12)Against the usual assumption that Arabic grammatical operators based on reflexes of šay derive from the Arabic word for 'thing' šayʔ, it is argued here that indefinite quantifiers and partitives instead derive from an ... -
Graph of Linear Transformations Over R
(Springer, 2022-12-01)In this paper, we study a connection between graph theory and linear transformations of finite dimensional vector spaces over R (the set of all real numbers). Let Rm, Rn be finite vector spaces over R, and let L be the set ... -
Green Synthesis of Encapsulated Copper Nanoparticles Using a Hydroalcoholic Extract of Moringa oleifera Leaves and Assessment of Their Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activities
(MDPI, 2020)The synthesis of metal nanoparticles using plant extracts is a very promising method in green synthesis. The medicinal value of Moringa oleifera leaves and the antimicrobial activity of metallic copper were combined in the ... -
Guatemalan Teenagers’ Hopes and Dreams: A Qualitative Study of Drawings and Characteristics of Future Selves
(Hogrefe, 2022)Utilizing adolescents' drawings in order to investigate their perceptions of self has a long history in psychology. The methodological approach is particularly useful in places, such as Guatemala, where the population may ... -
Gut bacteria of Cuora amboinensis (turtle) produce broad-spectrum antibacterial molecules
(Nature Research, 2019)Antimicrobial resistance is a major threat to human health, hence there is an urgent need to discover antibacterial molecule(s). Previously, we hypothesized that microbial gut flora of animals are a potential source of ...
