Impaired Liver Size and Compromised Neurobehavioral Activity are Elicited by Chitosan Nanoparticles in the Zebrafish Embryo Model by Haissam Abou-Saleh (497840)

“…Our data highlight the absence of both acute and teratogenic toxic effects of ChNPs (~100% survival rate) even at the higher concentration employed (200 mg/L). Although no single sign of cardiotoxicity was observed upon exposure to 200 mg/L of ChNPs, as judged by heartbeat rate, the corrected QT interval (QTc, which measures the time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave in the heart's electrical cycle), maximum cardiac arrest, and ejection fraction assays, the same dosage elicited the impairment of both liver size (decreased liver size, but without steatosis and lipid yolk retention) and neurobehavioral activity (increased movement under different light conditions). …”

Performance evaluation of 3D-printed PLA composites doped with WE43 magnesium alloy for bone tissue engineering applications by Sumama Nuthana Kalva (17302906)

“…Incorporating magnesium into PLA for 3D printing significantly affected the composites' dimensional stability and formation quality. While a low Mg content (5 %) only slightly impacted the print quality and dimensions, higher Mg concentrations (10 % and 15 %) led to increased weight, rougher surfaces, dimensional shrinkage in height, and overall poorer formation quality. …”

The promise of tirzepatide: A narrative review of metabolic benefits by Sara Sokary (17337724)

“…Moreover, tirzepatide exhibited favorable effects on glycemic control, with notable reductions in HbA1c levels ranging from 20.4 mmol/mol with the 5 mg dose to 28.2 mmol/mol with the 15 mg dose, following treatment durations lasting 40–52 weeks. …”

Removal of Benzene and Toluene from Synthetic Wastewater by Adsorption onto Magnetic Zeolitic Imidazole Framework Nanocomposites by George Z. Kyzas (740387)

“…Fitting the adsorption data into the various models revealed the aptness of the Langmuir isotherm equation in describing experimental information and highest adsorption capacity; for benzene it was 129.4, 134.2, 137.3, and 148.2 mg g⁻¹, but for toluene it was 118.4, 125.2, 129.6, and 133.1 mg g⁻¹, for temperature 20, 30, 40, and 50 °C, respectively. …”

Rapid mercury removal using living indigenous microalgal communities for water treatment applications by Amr Nasr Fekry (22521185)

“…The maximum biosorption capacity reached 0.10 mg/g at 100 μg/L initial concentration. Notably, <i>MIMA</i> maintained both viability and removal efficiency when exposed to Hg for 3 days without any addition of nutrients suggesting resilience under nutrient-limited conditions. …”
