(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
In this work, the degradation of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) drug in aqueous solution by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes including electrochemical oxidation (EO) using boron doped diamond (BDD) and its combination ...
Continuous adsorptive removal of glimepiride using multi-walled carbon nanotubes in fixed-bed column.
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Water pollution by emerging pollutants such as pharmaceutical and personal care products is one of today's biggest challenges. The presence of these emerging contaminants in water has raised increasing concern due to their ...
XRD/HSA, noncovalent interactions and influence of solvent polarity on spectral properties of dithiocarbazate schiff base and its cis-Cu(II) complex: Experimental and theoretical studies
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
A N,S-bidentate ligand (LH) was synthesized via the condensation of S-benzyldithiocarbazate with acetophenone. The produced Schiff base ligand was reacted with a copper(II) salt to yield a neutral cis-Cu(II) complex. The ...
Kinetic study of the thermo-oxidative decomposition of metformin by isoconversional and theoretical methods
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The drug metformin is the most prescribed drug to treat type II diabetes and has been recently reported to have anticancer activities. Because of its wide use, its potential risk on the environment is extremely concerning. ...
Concentrations of essential and toxic elements and health risk assessment in brown rice from Qatari market
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Twenty-two brown rice varieties available in the Qatari market were analyzed for essential and toxic elements by ICP-MS. Found concentrations (µg/kg) were: As: 171 ± 78 (62–343), Cd: 42 ± 60 (4–253), Cr: 515 ± 69 (401–639), ...
Diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and its chemical drivers across dryland habitats
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Qatar is largely characterized by a hyper-arid climate and low soil fertility which create a stressful soil environment for arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. In a study of AM fungal communities and their relationship with ...
Synthesis of novel Cubane [Ni4(O∩O)4(OCH3)4(OOH)4] cluster: XRD/HSA-interactions, spectral, DNA-binding, docking and subsequent thermolysis to NiO nanocrystals
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Under liquid-state vibration ultrasonic mode, the Ni4(O∩O)4(OCH3)4(OOH)4 complex [O∩O-bidentate ligand = 4,4,4-trifluoro-1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione] was synthesized from metal precursor and ligand in 10% H2O2/MeOH media, as ...
Electrochemical removal of pyrite scale using green formulations
(
Nature Research
, 2021 , Article)
Pyrite scale formation is a critical problem in the hydrocarbon production industry; it affects the flow of hydrocarbon within the reservoir and the surface facilities. Treatments with inorganic acids, such as HCl, results ...
