Application of Fe₃O₄ magnetite nanoparticles grafted in silica (SiO₂) for oil recovery from oil in water emulsions by Wamda Faisal Elmobarak (17058024)

“…The developed MD exhibited high recyclability at an effective and stable %R_oil and %_hdem of ~90% and 86.4% after 9 cycles, respectively. Demulsification process best fits the combined Langmuir-Freundlich (L-F) isotherm with highest adsorption capacity (Q_max) of 186.0 ± 5 mg_oil/g_MD compared to 86.0 ± 5 mg_oil/g_MD for Fe₃O₄, which is 1.1 folds greater than Q_max reported in the literature for other demulsifiers.…”

Exendin-4 alleviates steatosis in an in vitro cell model by lowering FABP1 and FOXA1 expression via the Wnt/-catenin signaling pathway by Olfa Khalifa (10914452)

“…Interestingly, the silencing of β-catenin with siRNA abolished the effect of Ex-4 on these genes, suggesting dependency on the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Additionally, after β-catenin silencing, OA treatment significantly increased the expression of nuclear transcription factors SREBP-1 and TCF4, whereas Ex-4 significantly decreased this upregulation. …”
