Synthetic Cannabinoid AB-FUBINACA Negatively Impacted the Male Fertility and Induced Testicular Toxicity by Ayman Alzu’bi (13162392)

“…AB-FUBINACA treatment also causes a significant dose related decrease in sperm viability. These findings were associated with higher level of oxidative stress (GP91 expression and malondialdehyde level) and elevated expression of key regulators of apoptosis (Bax and caspase-3) as well as reduced expression of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes SDHB (II), UQCRC2 (III), and ATP5a (V) in the testicular tissue.…”

Evaluation of Workability and Structuration Rate of Locally Developed 3D Printing Concrete Using Conventional Methods by Ahmed, Sara

“…Despite the huge research efforts, to date, there are still no standardized acceptance criteria and guidelines for the evaluation of printing concrete. Therefore, the main objective of this research was to develop 3D printing mixes with different aggregate-to-binder (a/b) ratios (1.2, 1.5, and 1.8) and evaluate it in terms of its fresh printing properties, which include the workability, extrudability, setting time, open time, and buildability. …”
