Journal ArticleDOI
Yucca aloifolia Seed Oil: A New Source of Bioactive Compounds
Sadok Mokbli,Imededdine Arbi Nehdi,Imededdine Arbi Nehdi,Hassen Mohamed Sbihi,Chin Ping Tan,Saud I. Al-Resayes,Umer Rashid +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to characterize and evaluate the seed oil extracted from Y. aloifolia seeds and found that the oil contained tocotrienols, which represent 79% of the total amount of tocols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling of the nanocrystalline-sized mesoporous zinc oxide catalyst using an artificial neural network for efficient biodiesel production
Soroush Soltani,Soroush Soltani,Umer Rashid,Taha Roodbar Shojaei,Imededdine Arbi Nehdi,Imededdine Arbi Nehdi,Muhammad Ibrahim +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of different reaction parameters including reaction time, reaction temperature, metal ratio, and calcination temperature was modeled by artificial neural networks (ANNs) to find out the possible relative optimum conditions of the synthesized mesoporous SO 3 H-ZnO catalyst for the prediction of the nanocrystalline size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-Temperature Dilute Acid Hydrolysis of Oil Palm Frond
Hadi Amirkhani,Robiah Yunus,Umer Rashid,Shanti Faridah Salleh,A. B. Dayang Radhiah,Syafiie Syam +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the effect of operating conditions of dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis undertaken in a 1L self-built batch reactor on xylose production from OPF fiber.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro and in silico exploration of IL-2 inhibition by small drug-like molecules
Saima Kalsoom,Umer Rashid,Awais Shaukat,Omer Mohamed Abdalla,Khalida Hussain,Waqasuddin Khan,Samina Nazir,Mohammad A. Mesaik,Zaheer-ul-Haq,Farzana Latif Ansari +9 more
TL;DR: Computational studies could provide an alternate tool for the identification and designing of more potent IL-2 inhibitors, and most of the chalcones were found to have a powerful inhibitory effect on T-lymphocytes proliferation and cytokine production.
Journal Article
Heavy metals concentration in soil-plant-animal continuum under semi-arid conditions of Punjab, Pakistan.
Zafar Iqbal Khan,Kafeel Ahmad,Nadia Akram,Irfan Mustafa,Muhammad Ibrahim,Asia Fardous,Sumaira Gondal,Abrar Hussain,Fahim Arshad,Ijaz Rasool Noorka,Muhammad Yousaf,Ameer Fawad Zahoor,Muhammad Sher,Altaf Hussain,Hazoor Ahmad Shad,Umer Rashid +15 more
TL;DR: It can be suggested that the value of Pb in soil was greater than the critical levels, while Cd concentration in soil, forage or blood plasma and Pb concentration in forage and blood plasma were within the non-toxic range.
