Comparison of serum antibody responses to Giardia lamblia of symptomatic and asymptomatic patients
Download1998
Belosevic, M., El-Mageid, S.A., Handousa, A.A., Hegazi, M.M., Abou-Shady, A.F., Soliman, M.M., Taghi-Kilani, R.
The circulating anti-parasite antibody response against Giardia lamblia in symptomatic and asymptomatic Egyptian children with confirmed giardiasis was examined. Symptomatic patients were identified using the following criteria: presence of only G. lamblia cysts in the feces, and one or more of...

Gamal El-Din, M., Kindzierski, W., Jin, J.
Oil sands mining involves removal of water from the Athabasca River basin in northeastern Alberta. Water produced during the extraction of bitumen from oil sands is referred to as oil sands process water (OSPW). Information on the likelihood of human exposure to OSPW derived naphthenic acids...

Gamal El-Din, M., McPhedran, K., Islam, M.S.
The oil sands bitumen extraction process results in the creation of waste products including oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) and mature fine tailings (MFT). Many technologies are currently under investigation to treat these waste products that are currently contained in vast storage...

Iqbal, M., Gamal El-Din, M., Aghajamali, M., Veinot, J.G.C., Purkait, T.K., Goss, G.G., Hadidi, L.
There are many candidate technologies that could be applied to the treatment of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW). Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are particularly useful for degrading biologically toxic or non-degradable materials such as aromatics, pesticides, petroleum constituents,...

Dietary lipids containing gangliosides reduce Giardia muris infection in vivo and survival of Giardia lamblia trophozoites in vitro
Download2004
Suh, M., Belosevic, M., Clandinin, M.T.
We examined whether a ganglioside supplemented diet affected the course of Giardia muris infection in mice and survival of Giardia lamblia trophozoites in vitro. Female CD-1 mice were fed 1 of 5 experimental diets : standard lab chow as a control diet; semi-synthetic diets containing 20% (w/w)...

Liang, J., Gamal El-Din, M., Estrada, L.P., Tumpa, F., Liu, Y.
The accumulation of mature fine tailings (MFT) in tailings ponds with very slow natural consolidation rate has been a concern for decades. Previous studies and current practices for tailings consolidation focus on the addition of various inorganic and organic additives to reduce MFT production...
