The Role of DJ-1 in the Glycation Process of Skin and Plasma Proteins in Mice Models by Abou Younes, Nour

“…Mice were then treated with ND-13 to identify through it the deglycase activity of DJ-1.Overall, the findings of this study indicate that the glycation process in the skin might need more than just a few weeks to form the early and intermediate glycation products, this was translated by the significant increase of DJ-1 levels after 8 weeks of treatment with an exogenous glycating agent compared to week 4. …”

Pt-doped armchair graphene nanoribbon as a promising gas sensor for CO and CO₂: DFT study by Ehab Salih (17075206)

“…To enhance the sensing performance, both H-AGNR and N-AGNR systems were doped with platinum (Pt) forming another two systems: Pt–H-AGNR, and Pt–N-AGNR. After doping, the results revealed a significant increase in the adsorption energy to almost 9 times than the non-doped systems for the cases of CO on Pt–N-AGNR as well as CO₂ on both Pt–H-AGNR and Pt–N-AGNR. …”

Application of chromium oxide-based redox reactions for hydrogen production via solar thermochemical splitting of water by Rahul R. Bhosale (6467102)

Durability of the bond between CFRP plates and concrete exposed to harsh environment by Al-Tamimi, Adil

“…Single-lap shear tests were conducted on all specimens after exposure to failure of the specimens. It was observed that the specimens exposed to the sun and saline environments experienced an increase in both the bond strength and attained peak loads because exposure of the adhesive to elevated temperature increased the bond because of greater polymer crosslinking, thus creating complex interactions in the polymer matrix. …”
