(MENAFN - The Peninsula) Doha: An international team, led by Qatar University (QU) researchers, has recently published a research article in Environmental Science and Pollution Research, a reputable journal published by Springer Nature. The work presented a rapid and efficient removal of the antidiabetic drug glimepiride by multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). The research was motivated by the rising global water pollution concerns caused by pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCP). Such pollutants have been detected in surface water across the globe, particularly in heavily populated areas. This research aims to develop a new method for removing residues of Gilmeride, a common drug to treat type II diabetes, using carbon nanotubes in a continuous adsorption process. This research came as a collaboration between Dr. Ismail Badran, Assistant Professor, Department of Chemistry and Earth Sciences at the College of Arts and Sciences at Qatar University, Dr. ....

In its war on Palestinian students, Israel deems book fairs and falafel sales a crime From campus raids to dubious indictments, Israel s persecution of Palestinian students aims to suppress political activism in West Bank universities. Palestinian students attend their graduation ceremony at the Birzeit University near the West Bank city of Ramallah, June 16, 2013. (Issam Rimawi/Flash90) Two years ago, in March 2018, Israel arrested Omar al-Kiswani, the head of Birzeit University’s student union, in broad daylight. Undercover Israeli security agents dressed as Palestinian students and journalists, known in Hebrew as mista‘revim, violently arrested him on campus and dragged him into their vehicle, which was parked at the entrance to the university, while firing tear gas everywhere. ....
Madam Director-General, In the 28 years of the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s NGO accreditation to UNESCO, it came as a shock to learn in February 2020 from the well-respected organization NGO Monitor, that the organization had granted academic certificates to terrorism “graduates” and their murderous “instructors.” The NGO Monitor report focused on a 2018 ceremony at An Najah University in Nablus to celebrate 61 Palestinian terrorists who had completed a course on “Human Rights” while incarcerated in Israeli prisons. The university had claimed the ceremony was organized by UNESCO. UNESCO then denied responsibility for the actions of the University Chairs in its name, even when they abuse the good reputation of the organization. We are aware, however, that member states’ National Commissions in regular contact with Paris headquarters can impact on unacceptable UNESCO University Chairs behavior. ....
