Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Proline, Glutathione reductase, Antioxidant and Catalase. Abeer Hashem has included themes like Biotic stress, Salinity, Symbiosis, Bacillus subtilis and Nutrient in her Botany study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Lipid peroxidation and Brassica, Shoot, Horticulture in addition to Proline.

Her Glutathione reductase research is under the purview of Superoxide dismutase. Her work carried out in the field of Antioxidant brings together such families of science as Oxidative stress, Solanum, Food science and Hydrogen peroxide. Her research integrates issues of Amino acid, Aquatic ecosystem and Metabolic pathway in her study of Food science.

Her most cited work include:

  • Nitric Oxide Mitigates Salt Stress by Regulating Levels of Osmolytes and Antioxidant Enzymes in Chickpea (236 citations)
  • Microalgae metabolites: A rich source for food and medicine (174 citations)
  • Role of Trichoderma harzianum in mitigating NaCl stress in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L) through antioxidative defense system. (139 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her primary scientific interests are in Botany, Food science, Antioxidant, Proline and Horticulture. She is interested in Shoot, which is a branch of Botany. Her work on Carotenoid as part of general Food science research is frequently linked to Cadmium, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her work on Catalase, Lipid peroxidation and Glutathione reductase as part of her general Antioxidant study is frequently connected to Ascorbic acid, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her studies in Catalase integrate themes in fields like Malondialdehyde and Superoxide dismutase. Her Proline research incorporates themes from Brassica and Osmolyte.

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2020-2021)?

  • Horticulture (11.80%)
  • Antioxidant (16.85%)
  • Ecology (3.93%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her primary areas of study are Horticulture, Antioxidant, Ecology, Biomass and Pharmacology. She has researched Horticulture in several fields, including Eucalyptol, Essential oil and Larva. Her Antioxidant research includes elements of Diabetes mellitus, Lipid profile and Pharmacokinetics.

Her work on Plant community, Desert climate and Crop productivity as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Composition, bridging the gap between disciplines. Her Biomass study combines topics in areas such as Syzygium, Pyrolysis and Nuclear chemistry. Her Pharmacology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dyslipidemia, Antioxidant potential, Biomarker, Acacia and HMG-CoA reductase.

Between 2020 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Nanoparticle-based amelioration of drought stress and cadmium toxicity in rice via triggering the stress responsive genetic mechanisms and nutrient acquisition. (3 citations)
  • Biohydrogen production using kitchen waste as the potential substrate: A sustainable approach. (2 citations)
  • Effect of nanocellulose on mechanical and barrier properties of PVA–banana pseudostem fiber composite films (2 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

Antioxidant, Renewable energy, Substrate, Biofuel and Dark fermentation are her primary areas of study. Her Antioxidant research incorporates elements of Photosynthesis, Osmolyte, Shoot, Horticulture and Membrane permeability. Her research on Renewable energy frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Sustainability.
