Statistical Optimization of Biosurfactant Production from SA1 Fermentation Process and Mathematical Modeling.

In this study, we sought to investigate the production and optimization of biosurfactants by soil fungi isolated from petroleum oil-contaminated soil in Saudi Arabia. Forty-four fungal isolates were isolated from ten petroleum oil-contaminated soil samples. All isolates were identified using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, and biosurfactant screening showed that thirty-nine of the isolates were positive.

A comparative study of red brick powder and lime as soft soil stabilizer.

The role of soil in building construction is to support the loads above it. Different types of soil with poor mechanical properties require more attention. Therefore, more effort is needed to stabilize the soil by improving its properties.

Association of (rs1799884), (rs780094), and (rs560887) Gene Polymorphisms with Type 2 Diabetes among Malay Ethnics.

 Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex metabolic disorder, and the underlying causes remain unknown and have not been fully elucidated. Several candidate genes have been associated with T2DM in various populations with conflicting results. The variations found in glucokinase ( ), glucokinase regulatory protein ( ), and glucose-6-phosphatase 2 ( ) genes were not well studied, particularly among Asians.

Morning individuals in Saudi Arabia have higher self-regulation of eating behavior compared to evening types.

Chronotype is a manifestation of an individual's circadian system, which can be presented as a preference for morningness or eveningness. Evening chronotype has been linked to unhealthy dietary habits. These habits are partially from poor self-regulation of eating behavior (SREB).
