Abstract Due to concerns about the safety of preservatives in cosmetic formulations, there is an urgent need explore eco‐friendly alternatives that do not pose a risk consumers. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are promising for pharmaceutical and products. In this study, ZnO NPs were synthesized using Cucumis sativus (cucumber) extract as stabilizing agent zinc acetate dihydrate precursor. Polyphenols, terpenoids, flavonoids cucumber act capping agents facilitate reduction metal ions form...

Trade may be significantly impacted by Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), which refers to investments made outside of the investor's place origin. Carbon emissions, in particular those that are result industrial activity and transportation, have potential a number important effects on commerce both national international levels. The environmental, economic, social repercussions these intricately interwoven with one another. Because it has an immediate bearing nation's production capacity,...

Abstract This paper investigates the intricate interplay between carbon emissions and foreign direct investment within context of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa (BRICS) for period spanning 2000 to 2022. In our comprehensive analysis, we incorporate ecological footprint, renewable energy, globalization, technological innovations as exogenous variables. Employing a system simultaneous equations across BRICS panel, aim fully elucidate proposed relationships. Our empirical findings...

National innovation system (NIS) is an essential, effective and dynamic factor for the development of nation. Despite enormous research activities on NIS, there have been certain issues still remaining in this domain specially, developing countries. Several articles published to deal with factors affecting NIS Malaysia but role collaboration between university industry (UIRC) totally unattended mainstream literature. Thus, objective study determine influence UIRC Malaysia. Additionally, aims...

Series of Cobalt nanoparticles incorporated polymethylmethacrylate composites in the presence and absence dodecyl-benzene-sulphonic acid (DBSA-CoNPs/PMMA CoNPs/PMMA, resp.) were synthesized by solution mixing methodology. UV-visible FTIR techniques used to confirm formation nanocomposite. spectra showed incorporation filler particles polymer matrix. On other hand, indicated physical interaction between two phases composite. Moreover, electrical nature was studied plotting graphs conductivity...

The dissertation is focused impacts adoption environment, economy, society through case studies key technologies including solar, wind, hydro, bioenergy. It points out that such could have a positive effect greenhouse gases, security sustainable development with detailed studies. success stories...

A series of composites polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with polyaniline‐multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PANI‐CNTs) as filler I and dodecyl benzene sulphonic acid‐multiwalled (DBSA‐CNTs) II are developed by solution mixing method. Composites characterized for morphological, electrical, thermal properties to study effect two different types additives, PANI, DBSA. Furthermore, their influence on dispersion CNTs is also studied. Electrical percolation behavior both investigated through dielectric...

For this purpose, primary data 60 respondents is collected through Questionnaire using Stratified random sampling technique. concludes positive influence income, health, education children, standards and businesses borrowers. problems faced by borrowers are high interest rate difficult procedure to apply for a loan.

The present work was intended to explore the floristic composition and ecological characteristics of representative sites (protected nearby unprotected) Karkhasa range land Balochistan.An exhaustive list 154 plant species belonging 39 families, compiled (gymnosperms =1, monocot=6, dicot=32).The comparison between respective indicated 147 on protected 35 unprotected sites.Floristic inventory dominance Asteraceae with 26 Poaceae 21 species.In biological life form, Therophytes spectra were...

Banana (Musa acuminate) contains peels which are rich in important bioactive compounds makes them greatly significant for therapeutic treatments.For studying phytochemical and antimicrobial properties of the peels, six varieties bananas were chosen from Quetta.Carbohydrates, tannins, steroids, terpenoids, flavonoids, glycosides phenols found solutions banana samples through screening.Evaluation antibacterial activity peel agar disc diffusion method showed inhibition zone diameters 19 mm 17...

Purpose.Galena and barite are the principal minerals of lead barium respectively.Both used extensively in industries because their distinct properties.In complex poly metallic ores, it is always desirable to produce separate mineral concentrates for subsequent metal extraction.Separation two or more from low-grade multi-metallic ore into commercial grade requires suitable process.Methods.This research work centered on development a process beneficiation galena-barite originating Khuzdar...

Honey is popular all over the world and used commonly in medicines food. This study was designed to compare natural commercial honey for their antioxidant enzymes. In this study, 11 different samples were collected from areas of Balochistan. The activity antioxidants like superoxide dismutase, peroxidase catalase enzymes measured compared by standard curves pure moreover, protein content also determined using Bradford Assay. Results showed that highest found one (4.42 ± 0.02 U/mg) dismutase...

Nowadays, nanotechnology is growing very fast, appearing every day in many fields related to this nanotechnology. In the present study silica nanoparticles (Si NPs) were synthesized, their surface was modified using a silazane and mesoporous Si NPs further used for loading tocopherol acetate. synthesized from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) presence of NaOH, with an easily handled, well known Stober method. this, procedure TEOS as source treated NaOH H₂O, undergoing condensation...

Abstract. Glaciers are storehouses for freshwater. Monitoring is one of the most important research areas especially when climate change has been accelerated snowmelt process. The major goal was to find snow cover trend glaciated regions Pakistan followed by estimation mass balance. area chosen it Upper Indus basin, which includes ranges Hindukush, Karakoram and Himalayas extended in Pakistan, India China. This region exhibits high topographic relief variability. Snow analysis performed...
