Indoor air quality is significantly compromised by the biodeterioration of building materials, such as oil-based paints, which facilitates the release of fungal bioaerosols posing health risks to occupants. This study examines the role of Cladosporium sphaerospermum as a key airborne contaminant in paint degradation and evaluates metal nanoparticles as antimicrobial additives to mitigate associated bioaerosol emissions. Clados...
Advancing energy efficiency in smart transportation through intelligent technologies and policy innovationNARA Subscribed
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...
Mannosylated fisetin/carveol lipid nanocapsules: brain-targeted dual therapy for modulation of epileptogenesis and cognitive deficitsNARA Subscribed
Pharmacological treatment of epilepsy is challenged by several barriers with the blood brain barrier (BBB) imposing the utmost restrictions to brain drug delivery. Antiepileptic drugs aim to reduce seizures frequency and severity while exerting minimal toxic effects. Herein, the merits of phytomedicine and brain targeted nanocarriers were combined for the control of seizures in a chronic epilepsy model. Fisetin (FS); a polyphe...
Harnessing bacterial power and omics technologies for sustainable plastic waste biodegradationNARA Subscribed
Plastic pollution constitutes a critical environmental concern of this era, with synthetic polymers, i.e., polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), and polyurethane (PU), accumulating in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems at alarming rates. One of the promising solutions to this worldwide problem is microbial plastic degradation, particularly by bacteria that can convert polymeric materials into l...
Periparturient alpha-lipoic acid supplementation improves ewe antioxidant status, colostrum quality, and lamb growthNARA Subscribed
Alpha-lipoic acid (α-LA) is a potent antioxidant with potential to enhance ruminant health and productivity, yet its effects in late-pregnant ewes are not well defined. This study evaluated α-LA supplementation (600 mg/day) from 60 days prepartum to 8 weeks postpartum on blood biochemistry, immunity, colostrum and milk composition, microbiological quality, and lamb performance in Egyptian ewes. Thirty ewes were randomly alloca...
The aggressive nature and high recurrence rate of tongue cancer, along with the severe side effects associated with current conventional treatments, underscore the urgent need for alternative therapeutic strategies that offer improved selectivity and reduced toxicity. Calcium titanate nanoparticles (CaTiO 3 NPs) have previously demonstrated significant cytotoxic effects against MCF-7 breast cancer and A549 non-small cell lung...
