Abstract: Hydrogen has been an important intermediate in the chemical industry and refineries. It has reported the annual production of around 60 million metric tonnes in 2018 (Statista, 2021). However, fossil fuels account for 95 percent of the global hydrogen supply today, resulting in significant carbon dioxide emissions. Furthermore, water electrolysis with electricity produces a small amount of hydrogen but since it uses fossil fuels for electricity, it does not sustainably address the greenhouse gas issues. As a result, hydrogen generated from renewable energy is a viable option for addressing the problem of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide. Hence, hydrogen production through gasification.....

Abstract:Objective: To assess lipid levels and their relationship to disease severity and degree of relapse, according to the Clinical Rating Scale (EDSS) for patients with multiple sclerosis in the Gaza Strip. Materials and Methods: The research involved 31 MS patients who were separated into two categories. The first group consisted of 20 patients in the remission condition and the second group consisted of 11 patients in the relapsed state and 30 apparently healthy individuals as a control group. A questionnaire was used to collect the data used in the statistical analysis. Blood samples were collected from the participants and analyzed for as triglycerides (TG), cholesterol (CH), Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and High-density lipoprotein (HDL) was calculated using Friedewald formula. An ethical approval was granted from Helisinki Committee at Gaza. All data were analyzed using the computerized statistical......

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women and leading cause of mortality worldwide. The most commonly used method of treatment is chemotherapy which has adverse side effects. Carica papaya fruit is consumed by most people in Nigeria. All parts of the fruit such as the leaves, stem bark, roots, e.t.c are used to cure various ailments by traditional doctors. AIM:The aim of this study was to assess the effects of ripe Carica papaya seed extracts on MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines. METHOD:The ripe fruits were obtained, and the seeds were removed, washed with distilled water, air dried. The aqueous and methanolic......
