Journal ArticleDOI
Flash hydrolysis of microalgae (Scenedesmus sp.) for protein extraction and production of biofuels intermediates
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of temperature and residence time on protein hydrolysis to water-soluble fractions (algal hydrolyzate) and yield of lipid-rich solids (biofuels intermediate) was studied using a lab-scale continuous flow reactor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origin and variability of particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) mass concentrations over an Eastern Mediterranean city
TL;DR: In this article, a long-term evaluation of PM10 and PM2.5 mass concentrations reveals that averages of PM 10 and PM 2.5 collected between 2003 and 2007 in several different sites in Beirut exceeded the World Health Organization (WHO) PM10
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of microbial exopolymers in determining the fate of oil and chemical dispersants in the ocean
Antonietta Quigg,Uta Passow,Wei-Chun Chin,Chen Xu,Shawn M. Doyle,Laura Bretherton,Manoj Kamalanathan,Alicia K. Williams,Jason B. Sylvan,Zoe V. Finkel,Anthony H. Knap,Kathleen A. Schwehr,Saijin Zhang,Luni Sun,Terry L. Wade,Wassim Obeid,Patrick G. Hatcher,Peter H. Santschi +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review what we do know about microbially produced extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), how oil and chemical dispersant can influence the production rate and chemical and physical properties of EPS, and ultimately the fate of oil in the water column.
Journal ArticleDOI
Urine TNF-α and IL-9 for clinical diagnosis of acute interstitial nephritis
Dennis G. Moledina,F. Perry Wilson,Jordan S. Pober,Mark A. Perazella,Nikhil Singh,Randy L. Luciano,Wassim Obeid,Haiqun Lin,Michael Kuperman,Gilbert W. Moeckel,Michael Kashgarian,Lloyd G. Cantley,Chirag R. Parikh +12 more
TL;DR: Inclusion of urinary TNF-α and IL-9 improves discrimination over clinicians' prebiopsy diagnosis and currently available tests for AIN diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of hydrothermal carbonization to recycle nutrients in algal biofuel production
Robert B. Levine,Christian O. Sambolin Sierra,Ryan L. Hockstad,Wassim Obeid,Patrick G. Hatcher,Phillip E. Savage +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated a processing strategy called hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) to convert wet algal biomass into a lipid-rich hydrochar and aqueous phase (AP) co-product.
