Somatic Mutation Profile Among Young-Onset Primary Colorectal Cancer in Palestine
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is considered a major cause for morbidity and mortality in the world and is being more frequently diagnosed in young adults. Young CRC patients have more aggressive tumors and a poor clinical course. In this research project, we aim to elucidate the molecular alterations and somatic mutations leading to the development of...
Characterization of bioactive phytochemical compounds from Mediterranean medicinal plants as an approach to develop natural-based drug leads
Certain phytochemicals can cure several types of diseases, and may play an important role in pharmacology as natural supplements to control various diseases as fast and reliable alternatives. Many synthetic drugs cause severe side effects that are not acceptable. Natural products with therapeutic properties have been used since antiquity in...
Growth and characterization of Sb2Te3 thin films onto Se substrates as photovoltaic interface
Owing to its smart properties as a phase change memory device, here in this project, the Sb2Te3 thin films will be deposited onto a photovoltaic Se substrate. The Se/Sb2Te3 interface will be characterized by means of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersion X-ray analysis, optical spectroscopy, dark and photo illuminated...
Effect of different implant abutment surface preparation with different luting agent on retention of single implant supported metal crown, A comparative vitro study
1.Ten implant analogs were secured in five epoxy resin casts perpendicular to the plane of cast in right first molar and left first molar region and implant abutments were screwed 2.100 Metal copings with a loop on the occlusal surface were fabricated using nickel chromium (Ni–Cr) alloy were cemented. 3.Samples are divide in ( 5) group each group...
The effect of Lensing on apondized Fiber Bragg Gratings
Fiber bragg grating is an in fiber optical passive device used in communication and sensing applications. It is a band rejection filter used to reflect back a band the optical spectrum and allow the rest of the signal to pass through. This is an important filter device in optical communication networks and sidelobes should be as small as possible...
Reprogramming of human somatic cells into induced neural stem cells via mRNA reprogramming
Unique properties of stem cells self-renewal as well as differentiation into multiple cell types make them an attractive approach for developing clinical therapies for human neurodegenerative disorders. It is demonstrated that postnatal central nervous system (CNS) harbors adult stem cells called neural stem cells (NSCs). These cells are isolated...
Haplotype Analysis and Genetic Diversity of Echinococcus granulosus Using Whole Genome Sequencing: A pilot study in Human and Livestock Hosts
The project starts with collecting 5-10 hydatid cysts, half from hospitalized patients and the other half from livestock (sheep and goats). The DNA will be extracted from the cysts and PCR conducted to confirm diagnosis. The PCR products from the previous step will be tagged in a process called Library preparation. This process includes DNA...
Add –Drop WDM Multiplexer Design with Thermally packaged FBG
The fiber Bragg grating of an OADM has to be temperature compensated using negative expanding temperature coefficient. Temperature compensation package of FBG and two circulators will be used to design one channel add-drop multiplexer. Optical testing of the multiplexer will be done using optical spectrum analyzer.
