It is dedicated to increasing the depth of the subject across disciplines with the ultimate aim of expanding knowledge of the subject.
The Future Business Journal (FBJ) publishes conceptual and empirical research papers spanning all the major research fields in Management, Marketing, Accounting, Micro Economics, Management Information Systems, and Finance. The Journal's emphasis is on theoretical developments and their implementation, empirical, applied, and policy-oriented research in Management, Marketing, Accounting, Micro-Economics Management Information System and Finance. The Journal's purpose is to improve communications between, and within, the academic and other research communities and policymakers and operational decision makers. Future Business Journal fills a unique niche among business publications of its type by publishing articles that strike a balance between the practical and the academic fields, recognizing the intricate relationships between many areas of business activities.Future University In Egyp
Synthesis, biological evaluation and molecular modeling study of new (1,2,4-triazole or 1,3,4-thiadiazole)-methylthio-derivatives of quinazolin-4(3H)-one as DHFR inhibitors
No full textA new series of 2-mercapto-quinazolin-4-one analogues was designed, synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro DHFR inhibition, antitumor and antimicrobial activity. Compound 17 proved to be the most active DHFR inhibitor with IC value of 0.01 lM, eight fold more active than methotrexate (MTX). Compounds 16 and 24 showed antitumor activity against human Caco2 colon and MCF-7 breast tumor cell lines with IC 50 50 values of 25.4 and 9.5 lg/ml, respectively. Compounds 15, 20, 21 and 30 showed considerable activity against the Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus while 24 and 30 proved active against Bacillus subtilis with a magnitude of potency comparable to the broad spectrum antibiotic Ciprofloxacin. Strong activity was observed for 13, 14, 19, 20 and 24 against Candida albicans and Aspergillus flavus. Compound 17 shared a similar molecular docking mode with MTX and made a critical hydrogen bond and arene-arene interactions via Ala9 and Phe34 amino acid residues, respectively
Studying the influence of formulation and process variables on Vancomycin-loaded polymeric nanoparticles as potential carrier for enhanced ophthalmic delivery
No full textOcular topically applied Vancomycin (VCM) suffers poor bioavailability due to its high
molecular weight and hydrophilicity. In the Present investigation, VCM-loaded polymeric
nanoparticles (PNPs) were developed aiming to enhance its ocular bioavailability through
prolonging its release pattern and ophthalmic residence. PNPs were prepared utilizing double
emulsion (W/O/O), solvent evaporation technique. 2

full factorial design was applied to evaluate individual and combined influences of polymer type, Eudragit® RS100, sonication time,
and Span®
80 concentration on PNPs particle size, encapsulation efficiency, and zeta potential.
Further, the optimized formulae were incorporated in 1% Carbopol®
- based gel. In-vivo
evaluation of the optimized formulae was performed via Draize test followed by microbiological
susceptibility testing on albino rabbits. Results revealed successful formulation of VCM- loaded
PNPs was achieved with particle sizes reaching 155 nm and up to 88% encapsulation. Draize test
confirmed the optimized formulae as non-irritating and safe for ophthalmic administration.
Microbiological susceptibility testing confirmed prolonged residence, higher Cmax. with more
than two folds increment in the AUC(0.25- 24) of VCM-PNPs over control groups. Thus, VCMloaded
PNPs represent promising carriers with superior achievements for enhanced Vancomycin
ophthalmic delivery over the traditional use of commercially available VCM parenteral
powder after constitution into a solution by the ophthalmologists
Chemical Profile and Biological Activity of Casimiroa Edulis Non-Edible Fruit`s Parts
No full textAdvanced Pharmaceutical Bulletin December 2017Purpose: the non-edible fruit parts of Casimiroa edulis Llave et were evaluated for their active constituents and their potential as antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activity. Methods: Fruits peel (FP) and seeds kernel (SK) of Casimiroa edulis Llave et Lex. were extracted successively with hexane and then methanol. Fatty acids were prepared from hexane extracts and identified by GC. Total flavonoid, phenolic acids and tannins contents in methanol extracts were determined by UV spectrophotometer and identified by HPLC. Antioxidant, in-vitro anti-inflammatory activity and antitumor effect against Caco-2 cell line were determined. Results: GC analysis of hexane extracts showed that oleic acid (47.00%) was the major unsaturated fatty acids in both extracts while lignoceric acid (15.49%) is the most abundant saturated fatty acid in (FP). Total phenolic, flavonoid and tannin contents in (FP) & (SK) methanol extracts were; 37.5±1.5, 10.79±0.66 and 22.28±0.23 for (FP); 53.5±1.5mg/g, 14.44±0.32 mg/g; and 53.73±3.58 mg/g for (SK) respectively. HPLC analysis of methanol extract revealed that; the major phenolic compound was pyrogallol in (FP) and p-hydroxybenzoic acid in (SK), the major flavonoid was luteolin 6-arabinose-8-glucose in (FP) and acacetin in (SK). Conclusion: This study showed that non-edible parts of C. edulis fruit is a rich source of different phenolic compounds and fatty acids which has great antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antitumor activities; that could be used as a natural source in pharmaceutical industry
The Effect of Leader Member Exchange “LMX” on Employee Turnover Intention: Intercultural Competence “An Applied Study on the Telecommunication Sector in Egypt”
No full textSubmitted for the fulfillment the Master’s
Degree in Human Resources ManagementThe workforce planning has been become one of the most critical issues that any organization faces nowadays. This paper reports an empirical study that declared the impact of leader member exchange (LMX) and its effect on the intention to turnover, whether LMX has a relation on intention to turnover or not, in addition to that, whether intercultural competence is considered to be a moderating variable or not, which means, that LMX has a relation with intention to turnover in the presence of intercultural competence or not. A sample of 400 employees in the field of telecommunication sector in Egypt was studied. The dependent variable of the research was turnover, while the independent variable was LMX, where LMX as a variable is measured by four factors, which are, affect loyalty, contribution and professional respect. For the moderating variable of the research intercultural competence was used, it is measured by 9 factors, which are cross cultural empathy, self-efficacy, and willingness to engage, cross cultural openness, emotional self-regulation, self-monitoring, and tolerance for ambiguity, low need for cognitive and cognitive flexibility. A sample was investigated and research findings were analyzed by using descriptive statistical techniques, Cronbach`s alpha, Coefficient of correlation matrix,Regression analysis, and analysis of variance. Results showed that there is significantpositive strong relationship between leader member exchange (LMX) and intention to turnover, while there is no direct significant relation between LMX and intention to turnover in the presence of intercultural competence. In addition, it empirically concluded that idealized influence attribute and individualized consideration are the transformational leadership behaviors that have the highest impact on employee voluntary turnover.Under Supervision of

Business Intelligence Maturity Models: Toward New Integrated Model
No full textBusiness Intelligence (BI) has become one of the most important research areas that helps rganizations and managers to better decision making process. This paper aims to show the barriers to BI adoption and discusses the most commonly used Business Intelligence Maturity Models (BIMMs). The aim also is to highlight the pitfalls of these BIMMs in order reach a solution. Using new techniques such as Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), Service Oriented Business Intelligence (SOBI) or Event Driven rchitecture (EDA) leads to a new model. The proposed model named Service-Oriented Business Intelligence Maturity Model (SOBIMM) is briefly described in this pape
