Vol.2 No.6 -9 : The possible anti-inflammatory role of the blue green algae ,Aphanizomenon flos-aquae on adult male rats.
By : Samir Atea Mohammed1, Hemmat Mansour Abdelhafez1, Fatma Ahmed Eid1 Ola Mohammed Abdel-Raouf2, Rasha Mohammed Ibrahim1 Abstract Aphanizomenon flose-aquae (AFA) is a fresh water unicellular blue green microalgae like Spirulina, but most AFA is harvested from the wild in volcanic regions leading to high levels of trace minerals. Aphanizomenon flos- aquae have been traditionally […]

Vol.2 No.5 -2 : Effect of Doping a Rare-Earth Oxide on the Photovoltaic Parameters of Dye -Sensitized Solar Cells.
By : A. A. El-Hamalawy, M. M. El-Kholy, Alshimaa Ali Abstract Yb2O3-doped TiO2 were prepared using mechanochemical process to obtain Dye Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs) photoanodes. The parameters of DSSC devices were calculated. The study showed that the addition of Yb2O3 improved the open-circuit voltage via a p-type effect, whereas, a negative effect on the […]
Vol.2 No.5 -3 : Heavy Metal Analysis in Some Water Types from Egypt and Saudi Arabia, and Future Aspirations of Water Resources Management.
By : Ahmed M. El-Naggar Abstract A comparative evaluation of the heavy metals Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium, Chromium, Copper and Zinc in versatile water resources in Egypt and Saudi Arabia was conducted during the summer of 2015. All the studied water brands contained markedly scarce amounts of Arsenic, which was under the limit of detection. Chromium […]
