The Assessment of Wind Power for Electricity Generation in Lebanon by Elkhoury, Michel

“…Furthermore, this will alleviate the deficiency in the electric power provided by Electricite Du Liban, which spends around $500 million worth of fuel oil each year for electricity generation (Green Line Association, 2007). Hourly wind speed data (2005–2007) at Beirut, Zahleh, Sour (Tyre), and El-Abdeh were thoroughly investigated to assess the wind energy potential of these sites. …”

The Antioxidant and Pro-apoptotic effects of Sternbergia clusiana Bulb Ethanolic Extract on Breast Cancer Cells in vitro by El Samarji, Mona

“…MDA-MB-231 cells treated with SbBEE exhibited morphological and biochemical hallmarks of apoptosis that were detected through DNA fragmentation, the hyper-expression of phosphatidylserine on the outer leaflet of cells membrane and the upregulation of proteins able to mediate cell death through apoptosis (c-PARP, Bax/ Bcl2). The prominent decrease in ROS levels upon treatment confirmed the antioxidant property of the extract being investigated, highlighting the promising effect of SbBEE in breast cancer treatment.…”
