Purpose: Most studies of mobile commerce (MC) adoption by individuals have focused on the influence of a set of factors at a single point in time, and thus, cannot capture the process by which the individuals progress from simple to sophisticated MC adoption. This paper aims to enhance the current [...]

Objectives: In 2017, the World Health Organization (WHO) published a list of global priority pathogens (GPP) – 12 species of bacteria with critical, high, and medium antibiotic resistance (AR). In this review, our goal was to quantify published reports of AR in this group of pathogens using the Medline-PubMed databases. [...]

The concentrations of the minerals magnesium (Mg2+), calcium (Ca2+), sodium (Na+) and potassium(K+) were determined in tap, filtered and bottled waters in Bahrain using atomic absorption spectroscopy. Tap and filtered water samples were obtained from the households of ten different cities in Bahrain, while twenty different commercial brands of bottled [...]

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2dM) is a disease associated with a number of metabolic disturbances, including protein metabolism. In the present study, blood samples were obtained from Bahraini subjects, including 6 patients with T2dM and 6 age- and sex-matched, non-diabetic, healthy controls. depleted and non-depleted sera were prepared from the [...]

Objective: To counteract muscle mass, muscle strength and power loss during aging, and to study age-related change of neuromuscular manifestation of fatigue in relation to nutritional supplementation. Design: randomized controlled double-blind study. Setting: Twice-daily consumption for 12 weeks of an Essential Amino Acids (EAA)-based multi-ingredient nutritional supplement containing EAA, creatine, [...]

Innovation has been recognized as one of the main strategies for organizations to remain competitive in today’s competitive economy. Employees’ innovative work behavior is the primary driver for organizational-wide innovation. Innovative work behavior is the production of usable products, processes, or services originating from identifying problems to generating ideas. From [...]

The effects of extraction process using three different solvents [50% aqueous acetone (Ace/w), 50% aqueous ethanol (Eth/w) or 50% aqueous methanol (Meth/w)] and wine production residue (seeds, skin and pomace) from Pinot noir [PN] and Pinot meunier [PM] on the phenolic profile and anti-influenza activity of their extracts were determined. [...]

In this research work, the charge transfer complex of 2,2′-bipyridine with picric acid a 1:1 stoichiometry has been investigated by using quantum chemical calculations B3LYP/6-311++G(d, p), CAM- B3LYP/6-311++G(d, p), PBE0/6-311++G(d, p) and M06-2X/6-311++G(d, p) level of theory. Binding energies (Δ E int, Δ H int and Δ G int), reactivity [...]

In this study, a novel and sensitive voltammetric nanosensor has been developed for the first time, for the detection of Rilpivirine based on amine-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (NH2-fMWCNT) with Ag nanoparticles onto carbon quantum dots modified glassy carbon electrode. Scanning electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were [...]

Proteins differential expression in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can be due to etiological factors or pathological changes, such proteins can be utilized as biomarkers. Identification of a marker protein out of thousands became a feasible task during the proteomics era by using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). In this [...]
