    Q-Switched UV Laser Interactions with the Human Blood in Vitro

    A Q-switched UV laser beam emitting wavelength at 355 nm with different energy densities (fluence, J/cm2) was used for shining sixty human blood samples in vitro. Absorption spectra of hemoglobin were measured for the first time for the samples that exposed to 500 laser pulses in comparison to control samples. It was found that the peak absorbance decreases as the laser fluence increases. This decrease in the peak absorption has been found to be due to the red blood cells deformation and aggregation resulting from the effect of the laser pulses. This phenomenon has been confirmed by examination of the blood cells slides after exposing to the laser radiation. Furthermore, the red blood cells (RBCs) counts were found to be decreased with increasing the laser fluence. The decrease in the RBCs after the irradiation explains the decrease in the hemoglobin absorbance and that represents additional evidence to the structural change according to the optical microscope images. The changes in hemoglobin absorbance are used in a clinically available optical oxymeters. The immediate hematology measurements of the blood samples after the exposure to the laser pulses indicate an increase in the white blood cells (WBCs) of the type basophiles. The measurements were obtained with a significant difference with the level of probability (p≤ 0.05) between the laser exposed samples and the control samples. This laser effect is also due to structural changes in the WBCs. The changes in mitochondria resulting in cells division are in a good agreement with many results in the literature for other types of laser irradiation and other types of the WBCs. The proliferation of the basophiles upon laser photolysis plays a vital role in the activation of the immune system and a consequent destruction of pathogens by these cells

    A Review of the Configurations, Capabilities, and Cutting-Edge Options for Multistage Solar Stills in Water Desalination

    The desalination of saltwater is a viable option to produce freshwater. All the desalination processes are energy-intensive and can be carried out on a large scale. Therefore, producing freshwater using renewable energy sources is the most desirable option considering the current energy crisis and the effect that fossil-fuel-based energy has on our carbon footprint. In this respect, the tray-type still, one of several solar power desalination still varieties, is popular owing to its straightforward design, economic materials of construction, and minimal maintenance requirements, especially in isolated island regions with restricted energy and natural water supplies. The traditional tray-type solar power has a few drawbacks, such as the inability to recover latent heat from condensation, reduced thermal convection, a large heat capacity, and comparatively minimal driving power through evaporation. Therefore, the improvement of heat and mass transfer capabilities in tray-type stills has been the subject of many studies. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive review in the open literature that covers the design and operational details of multistage solar stills. The purpose of this paper is to present a thorough overview of the past research on multistage solar stills, in terms of configurations, capabilities, and cutting-edge options. In comparison to a unit without a salt-blocking formation, the review indicates that a multistage distillation unit may run continuously at high radiation and generate pure water that is around 1.7 times higher than a unit without a salt-blocking formation. The most effective deign is found to be “V”-shaped solar still trays that attach to four-stage stills, since they are less expensive and more economical than the “floor” (Λ-shape) design, which requires two collectors. Additionally, it can be stated that the unit thermal efficiency, solar percentage, and collected solar energy (over the course of a year) increase by 23%, 18%, and 24%, respectively, when the solar collectors are increased by 26% (at the constant inflow velocity of the water)
