A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…This is specifically relevant in designing assays that require bioluminescence for extended periods, such as in the case of biosensors designed for monitoring slow enzymatic or <u>cellular signaling</u> reactions, without necessitating multiple rounds of luciferase substrate addition or any specialized reagents that result in increased assay costs. In the current manuscript, we report a mutant NLuc that possesses a stable and prolonged bioluminescence activity, albeit lower than the wild-type NLuc, and envisage a wider application of the mutant NLuc in designing biosensors for monitoring slower biological and biomedical events.…”

Coalition game theoretic P2P trading in a distribution network integrity-ensured local energy market by M., Imran Azim

“…The simulation results confirm that participants, both sellers and purchasers, can decrease their energy costs substantially, and the LEM operator can also secure its margin while the distribution network voltages and line congestion are within the prescribed ranges.…”

The cost associated with the development of the antimicrobial stewardship program in the adult general medicine setting in Qatar by Dina Abushanab (10696501)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">A total of 500 patients were included in the study. The operational costs decreased with the developed ASP. Whereas antimicrobial consumption and resource utilisation, and their associated costs, appear to have declined with the developed ASP, with a cost saving of QAR458 (US$125) per 100-patient beds, the avoided cost was negative, by QAR4,807 (US$1,317) per 100-patient beds, adding to a total QAR4,224 (US$1,160) increase in the 100-patient beds cost after ASP development.…”

The cost-benefit associated with the maturity of the Antimicrobial Stewardship Program versus prematurity in Heart Hospital of Hamad Medical Corporation in Qatar by Dina Abushanab (10696501)

“…</p><h3>Results</h3><p dir="ltr">A total of 668 patients were included in the study (255 in P-ASP versus 413 in M-ASP). With M-ASP, cost of hospital tests use ‘decreased’ by QAR 1,149 per 100-patient beds per year, cost of ASP personnel ‘decreased’ by QAR 125 per 100-patient beds with the M-ASP, cost of drug use ‘increased’ by QAR 176,848 per 100-patient beds, cost of resistance and hospitalization ‘increased’ by QAR 216,279 per 100-patient beds per year. …”

The investigation of treatment design parameters on carbon integration networks by Sabla Y. Alnouri (6331652)

“…As a result, this paper focuses on reassessing the performance of carbon integration networks using a more rigorous cost model for the treatment design stage. The effect of utilizing different treatment operating conditions on the overall cost of the treatment stage of CO₂(before allocation) is first captured using a detailed cost model. …”
