MXene Nanosheets May Induce Toxic Effect on the Early Stage of Embryogenesis.
(
American Scientific Publishers
, 2020 , Article)
MXene (Ti₃C₂T), as a novel 2D material, has produced a great interest due to its promising properties in biomedical applications, nevertheless, there is a lack of studies dedicated to investigate the possible toxic effect ...
Emerging innate biological properties of nano-drug delivery systems: A focus on PAMAM dendrimers and their clinical potential
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Drug delivery systems or vectors are usually needed to improve the bioavailability and effectiveness of a drug through improving its pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics at an organ, tissue or cellular level. However, emerging ...
Screening the growth inhibition mechanism of sulfate reducing bacteria by chitosan/lignosulfonate nanocomposite (CS@LS) in seawater media
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRBs) induced biofilm formation is a global industrial concern due to its role in the development of microbial-induced corrosion (MIC). Herein, we have developed a biodegradable chitosan/lignosulfonate ...
Removal of emerging pharmaceuticals from wastewater by ozone-based advanced oxidation processes
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Thin-ply composites are currently receiving specific attention from researchers due to their capabilities to delay matrix cracking. In this paper, the aim is to design a hybrid laminate that contains both thin- and normal ...
Vegetative insecticidal protein of Bacillus thuringiensis BLB459 and its efficiency against Lepidoptera
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
Bacillus thuringiensis strain BLB459 supernatant showed a promising activity against Lepidopteran pests with extremely damages in the larvae midgut. Investigations of the genes that encode secreted toxin demonstrated that ...
Heavy metal ions removal from industrial wastewater using magnetic nanoparticles (MNP)
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
A novel iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) grafted on hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) polymer were synthesized, characterized and tested for heavy metals (Ni, Cu and AL) removals from secondary effluent industrial ...
Decontamination of toxic Malathion pesticide in aqueous solutions by Fenton-based processes: Degradation pathway, toxicity assessment and health risk assessment
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
This study evaluates the degradation efficiency of Malathion using Fenton (Fe2+/H2O2: F), photo-Fenton (UV/Fe2+/H2O2: PF), and sono-photo Fenton (US/UV/Fe2+/H2O2: SPF) processes as well as determines the toxicity of the ...
Nanozyme-based sensing platforms for detection of toxic mercury ions: An alternative approach to conventional methods
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2020 , Article)
Mercury (Hg) is known as a poisonous heavy metal which stimulates a wide range of adverse effects on the human health. Therefore, development of some feasible, practical and highly sensitive platforms would be desirable ...
Mesoporous silica coated carbon nanofibers reduce embryotoxicity via ERK and JNK pathways
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) have been implicated in biomedical applications, yet, they are still considered as a potential hazard. Conversely, mesoporous silica is a biocompatible compound that has been used in various ...
Toxicity evaluation of selected ionic liquid compounds on embryonic development of Zebrafish.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Hydrate formation in seafloor pipelines is considered an economic and flow assurance issue for the oil and gas industries. Ionic liquids (ILs) have been recently used as potential hydrate inhibitors. Although branded as ...
