The transportation sector remains one of the largest contributors to global energy consumption and carbon emissions, particularly in rapidly urbanizing and emerging economies. This study presents an integrative review of intelligent technologies, system optimization approaches, and policy frameworks aimed at improving transportation energy efficiency, with a focused assessment of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASE...

This research investigates the formulation of a nanogel complex using pectin and poly(acrylic acid) (PAAc) to encapsulate rutin. The nanogel’s pH-responsive behavior and its potential as a targeted drug delivery platform are investigated. The gamma irradiation–induced crosslinking mechanism is elucidated, highlighting its role in creating a stable three-dimensional network structure within the polymer matrix. Fourier transform...

Estuaries are nutrient-rich environments characterized by a gradient in salinity due to the mixing of freshwater and seawater. These bodies of water play vital functions in nature and provide a wide variety of essential ecosystem services. In general, many natural and/or man-made activities have strongly stressed the Egyptian Nile estuarine habitats, as has the water shortage that was expected after the construction of the Gra...

Farming of red tilapia is one promising direction in aquaculture. The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of long-day photoperiod on the growth performance, reproductive parameters, maturity, sex ratio, β-carotene content, and skin coloration of red tilapia. Early life larvae were allocated into three treatment groups in triplicates: T1 = control group (12L:12D), T2 = long-day group (18L:6D), and T3 = continu...

This study provides comprehensive results on the growth, thyroid, liver, and gonadal condition, maturity, and sex ratio in red tilapia exposed to exogenous thyroxine and goitrogen. One-gram red tilapia fingerlings were reared in three groups: control, thyroxine (T4) (10 nM), and goitrogen (sodium perchlorate, 30 mg/L) for 30 days, followed by 30 days without treatment. After the first 30 days of treatment, liver enzymes and wh...

We report novel cyanoacrylamide derivatives bearing the pyrazole moiety. The molecular structures of the prepared cyanoacrylamides were confirmed by the different spectral tools such as NMR, IR, and elemental analyses. The anticancer effect of all the newly prepared cyanoacrylamides was studied against four cancer cell lines (HEPG2, MCF7, PACA2, and PC3) as well as the normal cell line (BJ1). The best cytotoxic effect was show...

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease worldwide and represents a challenge for clinicians. The present study aims to investigate the effects of cerebrolysin and/or lithium on the behavioral, neurochemical and histopathological alterations induced by reserpine as a model of PD. The rats were divided into control and reserpine-induced PD model groups. The model animals were further divid...

Kidney injury represents a global concern, leading to chronic kidney disease. The organophosphate insecticide malathion (MT) demonstrates environmental disturbance and impairment of different mammalian organs, including kidneys. Likewise, gamma-irradiation (IRR) provokes destructive effects in the kidneys. Rutin is a flavonoid glycoside that exhibits nephro-protective and radio-protective properties. This manuscript focused on...
