This study reports the antioxidant properties of three wild medicinal plants from Bahrain, namely Aizoon canariense L., Asphodelus tenuifolius Cav., and Emex spinosus (L.) Campdera. Antioxidant and antiradical activities of dried materials of these plants were investigated using FRAP, DPPH and ABTS assays. Total phenolics, free phenolics and total flavonoids [...]

Electroencephalography (EEG) based robotics systems, are receiving substantial attentions due to the mass amount of information hidden with human brainwaves. Classification and recognition of electroencephalography of human brainwaves for eye thoughts and movements, is presented within this article. The adopted technique is based on the use of Random Forests (RF) [...]

Background: Life and technology has become two sides of the coin. We are living in a era, where we cannot live without internet especially during student period.

Mercury and thallium forms a eutectic alloy that finds extensive use in thermostatic devices owing to its capability of withstanding extremely low temperature. As both these metals are highly toxic, so herein we report their co-sensing on a sensitive electrochemical platform. The performance of the designed sensing surface was tested [...]

The glassy carbon electrode was fabricated with multifunctional bis-triazole-appended calix[4]arene and then used for the simultaneous detection of Zn(II), Pb(II), As(III), and Hg(II). Before applying the square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry, the sensitivity and precision of the modified electrode was assured by optimizing various conditions such as the modifier concentration, pH [...]

The scientific literature has demonstrated that glutamine is one of the main beneficial amino acids. It plays an important role in gut microbiota and immunity. This paper provides a critical overview of experimental studies (in vitro, in vivo, and clinical) investigating the efficacy of glutamine and its effect on gut [...]

Background: Approximately 400 million people are infected with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) around the world, which makes it one of the world’s major infectious diseases. The prevalence of HBV genotypes and predictive factors for risk are poorly known in the Kingdom of Bahrain. Objectives: The aim of the present study [...]

Yogurt is a good source of probiotics, calcium, and proteins, but its content of vitamin D is low. Therefore, yogurt could be a good choice for vitamin D fortification to improve the positive health outcomes associated with its consumption. The primary aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to [...]

Use of the helmet is beneficial in reducing the severity of injuries and avoiding fatalities for motorcyclists, therefore, legislation exists in almost all countries. In practice, the situation is different regarding the helmet use, especially in the developing countries. This paper investigates the helmet use behavior of motorcyclists in Karachi, [...]
