In this paper, the gamma-irradiated EPR responses of hydroxyapatite (HAP) samples were investigated from a dosimetric point of view. For this purpose, nano-structure hydroxyapatite was synthesised via a hydrolysis method. A portion of the produced powder was annealed at 600 °C for 4 h. All the samples were irradiated under the (60)Co gamma-ray source at different absorbed doses from 0.1 to 45 kGy. EPR signal intensities of HAP samples were measured at room temperature in air. Subsequently, the EPR signal intensities were constructed as a function of radiation dose and were compared with the results of bone powder samples. The results show that the EPR responses of non-annealed HAP samples are higher than others for several times.

Schistosomiasis poses a significant global health threat, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions like Sudan. Although numerous epidemiological studies have examined schistosomiasis in Sudan, the genetic diversity of Schistosoma haematobium populations, specifically through analysis of the mtcox1 gene, remains unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors associated with urogenital schistosomiasis among school pupils in El-Fasher, Western Sudan, as well as the mtcox1 genetic diversity of human S.

: A novel fixed combination of aztreonam (ATM) and avibactam (AVI) offers promising potential to treat infections with carbapenem-resistant (CRE) producing metallo-β-lactamases (MBL). This study aimed to assess the accuracy of population pharmacokinetic (PK) models for ATM-AVI in predicting in vivo concentrations in a critically ill patient with CRE infection during its first clinical use. : A 70-year-old male with septic shock due to hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) caused by MBL-producing was treated with ATM-AVI.

Research on hydroxyapatite (HAP) coatings for bone tissue applications has been investigated for decades due to their significant osteoconductive and bioactivity properties. HAP closely resembles the mineral component of human bone, making it ideal for biomedical applications such as implants. This study investigates the synthesis of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAP-NPs) via the microemulsion method, which is essential for creating HAP coatings on the Ti-6Al-4V substrate.

Waste generation from fish processing sectors has become a significant environmental concern. This issue is exacerbated in countries with high aquaculture production and inefficient fish scale (FS) utilization. This study prepared and compared highly crystalline hydroxyapatite (HAp) from the FS of an anadromous fish, (I-HAp), and a freshwater fish, (R-HAp).
