Structural influence of chromium substituted magnetite ferrofluids on the optical and antibacterial characteristics by Babukutty, B.

“…As the composition of Cr increases from x = 0.2 to x = 0.8, the crystalline size decreases reaching a minimum value of 9 nm. At the same time, the magnetic moment also becomes 1.3 +- 0.08 at a saturation point of 33 +- 0.13 emu/g at the highest Cr composition. …”

Effect of reinforcement concentration on the properties of hot extruded Al-Al2O3 composites synthesized through microwave sintering process by Reddya, M. Penchal

“…Results showed that, as the content of hard ceramic particles increases, it improves overall mechanical properties including microhardness, 0.2% yield strength, ultimate compression/tensile strength, and Young's modulus while the ductility and co-efficient of thermal expansion decreases. XRD patterns and SEM/EDS mapping images show a uniform distribution of Al2O3 particles in the Al matrix. …”

Community structure and activity of a highly dynamic and nutrient-limited hypersaline microbial mat in Um Alhool Sabkha, Qatar by Al-Thani, Roda

“…We investigated the chemical composition, the microbial activity and biodiversity of the four main layers (L1-L4) in the photosynthetic mats. Chlorophyll a (Chl a) concentration and distribution (measured by HPLC and hyperspectral imaging, respectively), the phycocyanin distribution (scanned with hyperspectral imaging), oxygenic photosynthesis (determined by microsensor), and the abundance of photosynthetic microorganisms (from 16S and 18S rRNA sequencing) decreased with depth in the euphotic layer (L1). …”

Results from the first culturally tailored, multidisciplinary diabetes education in Lebanese adults with type 2 diabetes: effects on self-care and metabolic outcomes by Sukkarieh-Haraty, Ola

“…This pilot-study tested the effect of culturally-tailored education targeting diabetes selfcare on glycemia and cardiovascular risk factors of Lebanese with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) (n = 27; Age: 61 ± 10 yrs, 59% males, HbA1c: 8.98 ± 1.38%). Results: Diabetes self-care (Diet, Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose and foot care) improved after 6 months, which was reflected in a significant drop in glycemic levels (HbA1c:-0.5%; FPG: − 38 mg/dl), and cholesterol/HDL ratio (4.45 ± 1.39 vs. 4.06 ± 1.29). …”
