Docosahexaenoic Acid Counteracts the Hypoxic-Induced Inflammatory and Metabolic Alterations in 3T3-L1 Adipocytes by Younes, Noura B.

“…However, the effects of DHA in AT against hypoxia-induced immune-metabolic perturbations in adipocytes exposed to low O2 tension are not well known. Consequently, this study aimed to evaluate the impact of DHA on markers of inflammation, metabolism, apoptosis, and oxidative stress in 3T3-L1 cell adipocytes exposed to low O2 tension (1% O2) induced hypoxia. …”

Synthesis of silica supported ni and cu catalyst for carbon dioxide methanation reaction by Aheed, Ahmed

“…In addition, the used catalysts after the reaction were characterized using similar techniques to evaluate the effect of reaction conditions on active phase and SiO2 support. The 1%Ni on SiO2 catalyst shows good activity for CO2 conversion to CH4 till 450ºC, thereafter CH4 formation decreased and CO increased and remains the only product at 650ºC. …”

Electrocatalytic arsenite oxidation in bicarbonate solutions combined with CO2 reduction to formate by Wonjung, Choi

“…Sunlight-driven water-energy nexus technologies are receiving increasing attention. This study presents a hybrid electrochemical system that catalyzes the oxidation of As(III) to As(V) with a nanoparticulate TiO2 electrocatalyst (Ti/Ir1-xTaxOy/TiO2; denoted as an n-TEC) while simultaneously converting CO2 to formate on a Bi electrode in aqueous bicarbonate solutions at circum-neutral pH. …”

Acute and chronic toxicity assessments of 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) on the calanoid copepod Acartia clausi: Effects on survival, development, sex-ratio and... by Emna, Djebbi

“…In contrast, embryonic stage revealed high vulnerability to E2 and EE2 acute effects. Embryos showed non-monotonic dose-response and hatching success was significantly reduced at low realistic concentrations of E2 (0.005, 0.5, and 5 μg L-1) and EE2 (0.05 and 5 μg L-1).Survival, development and sex ratio of A. clausi to EE2 exposure at 1 and 100 μg L-1 were also determined during a life cycle experiment. …”

Role of TiO2 and carbon nanotubes on polyethylene, and effect of accelerated weathering on photo oxidation and mechanical properties by Zagho M.M.

“…Addition of CNTs had negligible effect on the tensile strength but it kept the same approximate value of the original before the accelerated weathering (e.g., 23.2 MPa for 1 wt% of CNTs). CNTs also protected the samples even with the presence of TONPs because of the absorbance and antioxidants effects. …”

Study of the Ion Interclation Mechanism in Mxene Membrane for the Water Treatment Applications by Helal, Mohamed Ibrahim Elsayed Ali Hussein

“…Unfortunately, these membranes can swell and shrink when in contact with water or under high temperatures. MXene (Ti3C2) is a two-dimensional early transition metal carbide-derived by the etching of MAX (Ti3AlC2) phases in fluoride-containing solutions, and it can be intercalated with cations due to its surface termination that makes MXene sheets Negatively charged. …”
