In Vitro Interaction of Organophosphono- and Organophosphorothioates with Human Acetylcholinesterase
Molecules, 2020 The implementation of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) in 1997 was a milestone in the prohibition of chemical warfare agents (CWA). Yet, the repeated use of CWA underlines the ongoing threat to the population.

A Complete MCDM Model for NPD Performance Assessment in an LED‐Based Lighting Plant Factory
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 Globally, industries and economies have undergone rapid development and expansion over the last several decades. As a result, global warming and environmental contaminations have resulted in climate change and jeopardized food security. In many developing countries, already decreasing crop yields are threatened by extreme weather and soil damaged by ...

Time course pathogenesis of sulphur mustard‐induced skin lesions in mouse model
International Wound Journal, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 441-454, August 2013., 2013 Sulphur mustard (SM) is a bifunctional alkylating agent that causes cutaneous blistering in humans and animals. In this study, we have presented closer views on pathogenesis of SM‐induced skin injury in a mouse model. SM diluted in acetone was applied once dermally at a dose of 5 or 10 mg/kg to Swiss albino mice.
