Ovarian cancer is the second most common and lethal gynecologic malignancy. Among natural product-based therapy, the honeybee products, particularly propolis, serve a valuable source contributing directly to human nutrition and health.In the present study, we determined the chemical composition of different types of propolis originating from Egypt, Germany and France using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Diabetic wound healing encounters significant challenges due to the extreme oxidative stress resulting from excessive inflammation and microbial infections, disrupting the typical cascade of wound healing and thwarting the re-epithelialization of skin tissues. Benefiting from the biological activities of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and sericin, we thus fabricated multifunctional hydrogels of CMC-Sericin. The hydrogel revealed high swelling performance alongside its porous structure.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have long been materials of great interest in numerous fields; however, there is escalating alarm over their toxicity to public health since exposure to these particles is inevitable. This study sheds light on the deleterious impacts of AgNPs on the midgut tissues of beetles (Blaps polychresta) collected from Egypt as a biological model. The investigations were conducted on the beetles administered with a sublethal dose of AgNPs (0.

With the evolution of nanostructure materials, silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) emerged as the predominantly exploited nanomaterial in multifarious sectors due to their versatile properties. Along with the heightening applications of Ag-NPs, however, there is increasing concern over their indubitable toxicity towards the ecosystem, which indeed affects surrounding organisms and human health. In this study, we evaluated the detrimental effects of Ag-NPs in relation to Egyptian wild female beetles, Blaps polychresta, after injection with a single dose of Ag-NPs at different doses and monitoring for 30 days to determine the sublethal dose.

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are currently the most frequently used engineered nanoparticles. The penetration of AgNPs into ecosystems is undeniable, and their adverse effects on organism reproduction are of fundamental importance for ecosystem stability. In this study, the survival time of the Egyptian beetle Blaps polychresta Forskal, 1775 (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae), after a single application of 7 different doses, was calculated for 30 days.

The lakes of the North Delta give a rich and imperative territory for marine fish and its regeneration, and have dependably been major areas of fish creation in Egypt, 75% of the production was collected from them. As of late, many difficulties are confronting these lakes and prompt the exhaustion of fish production from them. The aim of the present study is to evaluate different inorganic pollutants in Coleopterons aquatic insect (Cercyon unipunctatus) taken from both Lake Edku and Mariut and also, to estimate their effect on oxidative stress markers and chromosomal aberrations.
