EXPLORING THE REPURPOSING POTENTIAL OF APPROVED DRUGS AS POLY(ADP-RIBOSE) POLYMERASE 1 (PARP1) INHIBITORS FOR TARGETED CANCER THERAPY USING STRUCTURE-BASED DRUG DESIGN

ABOUMADI, EMAN MAHMOUD ABDELHAMID MAHMOUD

Background/aim: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a key DNA repair enzyme and therapeutic target in cancers with homologous recombination repair defects. Although approved PARP inhibitors are available, their limitations highlight the need for additional therapeutic options. This study aimed to identify potentia...

BANANA WASTE-DERIVED SYNTHESIS OF POROUS SCAFFOLD-LIKE CARBON STRUCTURES ENCAPSULATED PLATINUM-FREE METAL NANOSTRUCTURES FOR HYDROGEN PRODUCTION

ABDUL RAHIMAN, SUMAYYA CHIRAVARAMBATH

The high cost of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is one of the main challenges in H2-production. Herein, hierarchically porous carbon scaffold-like encapsulating metal nanocrystals (M/C, where M = Co, Cu, Mn, Mo, Zn, Ni) were synthesized by simple impregnation of banana wastes in a metal precursor solution, then...

ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR INDUSTRIAL MICROGRID WITH A HIGH PENETRATION OF RENEWABLE ENERGIES

ELHAG, ABDALLA AHMED ABDALLA

The high penetration of renewable energy resources in industrial microgrids introduces several operational challenges, including generation variability, forecast uncertainty, and tighter operating margins at the point of common coupling. These challenges can lead to inefficient scheduling of gas turbine generators, sub...

HEAVY METALS EXTRACTION FROM E-WASTE USING LOW-COST PROTIC IONIC LIQUIDS

SHEHATA, OMNIA I.

Electronic waste (e-waste) represents a critical environmental challenge of the 21st century because of its rapid increase, leading to the release of toxic heavy metals, causing significant pollution and thus negatively affecting human health and the ecosystem. Electronic waste is also regarded as a secondary source of...

HYBRID LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT OF DAIRY PRODUCTS’ PRODUCTION: A COMPREHENSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS ACROSS LEADING PRODUCER NATIONS

ALSAYYAD, LANA HUSSAM

The dairy industry causes significant greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, justifying the need for a precise emissions analysis to identify environmentally significant hotspots. Current analyses in the literature are limited since they use either process-based lifecycle assessments (LCA), which incompletely represent upstre...

PROPORTION AND PERCEPTION IN CONTEMPORARY URBAN MORPHOLOGY: A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PLANNED DISTRICTS IN DOHA

MESBAH, BASMA

Contemporary urban development in the Gulf has produced districts characterized by rapid growth, large-scale planning, and diverse spatial configurations. While proportion has long been recognized as a fundamental organizing principle in architecture and urban form, its role as a measurable determinant of human percept...

DEVELOPMENT OF CO2 CAPTURE SYSTEM FOR MOBILE EMISSIONS SOURCES

SAKR, AHMAD TALAL

With the increasing demand and use of fossil fuels, a significant amount of emissions gases are released into the atmosphere manipulating the concentrations of planet Earth greenhouse gases causing global warming, increase in the planet’s temperature and raising of sea levels. The growth of industrial activities result...

MATERNAL DETERMINANTS OF MINERALS AND PESTICIDE RESIDUES IN PRETERM HUMAN MILK IN QATAR

ATTIA, YASMINE

Introduction: Human milk is the preferred source of nutrition for infants; however, its composition may vary according to maternal, physiological, dietary, and environmental factors. This variability is particularly important for preterm infants, who have increased nutritional requirements and miss a critical period of...

A NOVEL ASSISTED REVERSE OSMOSIS STRATEGY FOR TERTIARY POLISHING OF TREATED SEWAGE EFFLUENT WITH ENHANCED ENERGY EFFICIENCY

ALKHAMRI, KENAN AHMAD

In this study, a nanofiltration-assisted reverse osmosis (NF-ARO) strategy was investigated to reduce energy consumption and improve the long-term performance of reverse osmosis (RO) for tertiary-treated sewage effluent (TSE) reclamation. A hybrid RO operational approach was proposed, using Direct-RO (DRO) during the i...
