Synthesis and characterization of hematite biocomposite using cassava starch template for aqueous phase removal of fluoride
(Elsevier, 2022-08-24)
In this study, facile synthesis of α-Fe2O3 biocomposite was mediated by cassava starch as a soft template. Batch mode evaluated its sorption behavior for fluoride removal from aqueous media. Characterization studies using ...
Rubber antioxidants and their transformation products: environmental occurrence and potential impact
(MDPI, 2022-11-07)
Antioxidants are prevalently used during rubber production to improve rubber performance, delay aging, and extend service life. However, recent studies have revealed that their transformation products (TPs) could adversely ...
Characterizations of regular modules
(International Electronic Journal of Algebra, 2022-12-14)
Different and distinct notions of regularity for modules exist in the literature. When these notions are restricted to commutative rings, they all coincide with the well-known von-Neumann regularity for rings. We give new ...
Application of a modified Poisson model in identifying factors associated with prevalence of pregnancy termination among women aged 15 – 49 years in Uganda
(African Journals Online (AJOL), 2022-10-27)
Abortion in Uganda is illegal, only permitted when it places the pregnant mother at risk. This study aimed to apply the modified Poisson model in identifying factors associated with the prevalence of pregnancy termination ...
Two new compounds and the anti-mycobacterial activity of the constituents from Zanthoxylum leprieurii root bark
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023-02-08)
The emergence of resistance to the existing TB drugs necessitated a search for new anti-mycobacterial compounds from Z. leprieurii root bark, which is used locally for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) in Uganda. Two new ...
Association between atherogenic index of plasma and prehypertension or hypertension among normoglycemia subjects in a Japan population: a cross-sectional study
(Springer Nature, 2023-06-29)
The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), consisting of triglycerides and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, is applied to estimate the cardiovascular disease risk. The evidence regarding the association between AIP and ...
Facile synthesis and characterization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes decorated with hydroxyapatite from cattle horns for adsorptive removal of fluoride.
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023-03-09)
Developing a new adsorbent for fluoride removal from cattle horn waste materials by a facile chemical method has shown great potential for fluoride removal. This paper reports the synthesis of multi-walled carbon nanotubes ...
Prognostic role of E2F1 gene expression in human cancer: a meta-analysis
(BioMed Central, 2023-06-05)
E2F1 has been confirmed to be highly expressed in a variety of cancers. To better understand the prognostic value of E2F1 in cancer patients, this study was conducted to comprehensively evaluate the prognostic value of ...
The diagnostic and prognostic role of miR-27a in cancer
(Elsevier, 2023-05-22)
MicroRNA-27a (miR-27a) has been reported to be abnormally expressed in patients with cancer, and it could play potential roles as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker of cancers. However, the diagnostic and prognostic ...
Role of starch in one pot fabrication of mesoporous gamma-alumina with excellent fluoride sorption capacity
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023-08-28)
Green synthesis of mesoporous γ-AƖ2O3, a cutting-edge material for sustainable application in medicine, engineering, energy, and water treatment, is still challenging. Our study used a one-pot strategy for facile synthesis ...
