Influence of direct electric field on PMCG-alginate-based microcapsule by Peter Kasak (1360617)

“…The swelling degree of the microcapsule and microcapsule membrane at different pH and the applied electric current under alkali and acidic conditions was investigated. The swelling degree was influenced by the dissociation of the membrane, which was observed after applying the electric field, which was caused by the electrokinetic effect and the neutralization of the polycation (under alkali conditions) or polyanionic (under acidic conditions) segment during membrane formation.…”

Explanatory Sequential Study of Teachers’ and Students’ Perceptions of Inclusion Provisions for Students with ASD in High Schools in Dubai by ALSHUAIBAT, SUHA MOHAMMAD

Hepato‐splanchnic fluxes during exercise in patients with cirrhosis—a pilot study by Stefanos Volianitis (22155835)

“…Arterial ammonia increased in parallel to lactate from 47.3 (40.1–54.5) to 144.4 (120.5–168.3) μmol/L (<i>P</i> < 0.05), although hepatic ammonia uptake increased from 19.5 (12.4–26.6) to 69.5 (46.5–92.5) μmol/min (<i>P</i> < 0.05). Among the 14 amino acids measured, glutamate was released in the liver, while the uptake of free fatty acids decreased. …”

Mapping geographical inequalities in access to drinking water and sanitation facilities in low-income and middle-income countries, 2000–17 by Aniruddha Deshpande (4377094)

“…Interpretation Our estimates, combined with geospatial trends in diarrhoeal burden, identify where efforts to increase access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities are most needed. By highlighting areas with successful approaches or in need of targeted interventions, our estimates can enable precision public health to effectively progress towards universal access to safe water and sanitation. …”
