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

“…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). …”

Mitigation of voltage imbalance in power distribution system using MPC‐controlled packed‐U‐cells converter by Ibrahim Ahmed (14778349)

Diversity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of mangrove forests in two coastal regions of Qatar by Mona Yousefi (17679490)

“…Principal Component Analysis (PCA) further categorized the strains into four distinct groups, showing that even within the same species, bacterial responses to environmental stressors varied. …”

Voltage Lift Switched Inductor Double Leg Converter With Extended Duty Ratio for DC Microgrid Application by Md Samiullah (16888767)

“…For high voltage applications, the conventional converters are to be operated beyond the prescribed range of the duty ratio which may result in various detrimental effects such as voltage spikes, increased current ripples, and reduced efficiency. …”

Piezoelectric properties of zinc oxide/iron oxide filled polyvinylidene fluoride nanocomposite fibers by Abdulrahman Mohmmed AlAhzm (14151183)

“…Higher dielectric constant value obtained for the same composite (three times higher than the neat PVDF) confirms the increased energy storage efficiency as well. …”

Challenges and constraints in meeting international standards in UAE education: External objectives versus local realities by Kathy O'Sullivan (13323315)

“…A higher education system of quality is necessary for the evolution of a society. Yet, in an increasingly globalised world, when information regarding local culture and the local community is subsumed by standardised information required by international accreditation agencies, higher education institutions are tasked with matching the ambitious goals they have with very diverse local realities. …”

Protein Isoaspartate Methyltransferase Is a Multicopy Suppressor of Protein Aggregation in Escherichia coli by Kern, Renee

“…Overexpression of PIMT reduces the amount of preS2-S′-β-galactosidase found in inclusion bodies at 43°C and increases its amount in soluble fractions. It reduces the level of isoaspartate formation in preS2-S′-β-galactosidase and increases its thermal stability in E. coli crude extracts without increasing the thermostability of a control protein, citrate synthase, in the same extracts. …”
