Microbial degradation of polyethylene polymer: current paradigms, challenges, and future innovations.

Polyethylene (PE) is the second most commonly used plastic worldwide, mainly used to produce single-use items such as bags and bottles. Its significant resistance to natural biodegradation results in the accumulation of PE in landfills, leading to various ecological and toxicological consequences. Despite extensive research on the microbial degradation of PE, achieving complete biodegradation remains a challenge.

Harnessing Lignin Nanoparticles for Sustainable Enzyme Immobilization: Current Paradigms and Future Innovations.

Lignin, a vital plant component, is key in providing structural integrity and is the second most abundant biopolymer in nature. The growing interest in sustainable and efficient biocatalysis has driven the exploration of lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) as a promising platform for enzyme immobilization. Given lignin's abundance and structural role in plants, converting it into nanoparticles offers a potential eco-friendly alternative to traditional supports.

Green synthesis of polyphenol-grafted lignin nanoparticles and their application as sustainable anti-acne, antioxidant, and UV-blocking agents.

Acne is a persistent infectious skin condition primarily caused by Propionibacterium acne that affects 80 % of teenagers. The rise of antibiotic resistance in P. acnes has led to an increasing interest in exploring alternative antimicrobial agents.

Evaluation of serum complement C4 among COVID-19 patients in Khartoum state: a case control-based study.

The complement system is made up of an abundance of unique plasma proteins that play an important role in innate immunity and inflammation, aiding in the fight against pathogenic microbes and viral diseases. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the serum complement C4 concentration in COVID-19 patients in Khartoum and compare them to healthy controls. A total of 100 samples were collected, 50 samples from COVID-19 patients who presented as cases and 50 samples from people who were evidently healthy.

Molecular Detection of Staphylococcal Enterotoxins and mecA Genes Products in Selected Food Samples Collected from Different Areas in Khartoum State.

Staphylococcal food poisoning is an intoxication that results from the consumption of improperly prepared or stored foods containing sufficient amounts of one or more preformed . enterotoxins. Nowadays, many researchers worldwide noted an emergence of resistant strains such as particularly for the antibiotic methicillin.

A correlation study of infection prostate Cancer among Sudanese patients - immunofluorescence and molecular based case-control study.

Background: , also called () is a well-known etiological agent of renal transplant nephropathy and cystitis. Recently, it got great attention from the researcher as a principal predisposing factor for different kinds of cancers including prostate cancer (PCa). Thus, this study aims to determine the correlation between infection and PCa through a descriptive case-control based study.
