أثارت قضية النقود إشكاليات عديدة وجدلا واسعا في معاملاتنا المالية المعاصرة نتيجة الظاهرة التضخمية التي طغت - وما تزال- على كثير من اقتصاديات الدول عامة، ودولنا الإسلامية خاصة، حيث تدهورت القي

There was a call for more research to be focused on core areas of quantity surveying including research concerning the state of BQ in Malaysia. This paper seek to respond to the call by presenting important points from literatures concerning research undertaken under the theme of BQ, in order to support and justify the need to conduct research with

Sg. Pusu is a river that flows through the campus of the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). The river is murky in appearance, particularly after a rainfall event, which reflects elevated suspended solids (SS) levels. This study aims to characterize the water quality conditions of the river under high flow conditions, particularly in

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of alkali treatment on water absorption and tensile properties of non-woven kenaf polyester composite. Kenaf fiber mat was treated with 2, 4 and 6% of different sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentration. The composite was fabricated using compression molding technique. It was found that treatment reduced

There are various Specialist Groups (SGs, sometimes referred to as “interests groups”) in the IWA where members can share and contribute ideas pertaining to particular of interest in the water field. A management committee typically oversees the running and activities of these groups. There are various benefits of joining the SGs, especially if

Guttiferae family is well-known to have a wide range of phytochemical constituents and bioactivities. A phytochemical investigation of Garcinia malaccensis lead isolation of -mangostin, -mangostin and a triterpenoid. α-Mangostin, a xanthone has a lot of health benefits. Many studies have been reported to investigate the biological activities

This study was aimed to assess the potential wound healing properties of Channa striatus (haruan) on migration of HaCaT keratinocytes. In vitro study was preferred to provide a clearer view wound healing process at cellular level specifically cellular migration activity. C. striata has been significantly studied to alleviate the healing process. Sp

Garcinia malaccensis Hk.f (Guttiferae) is closely resembled to G. mangostana and G. hombroniana. The genus of Garcinia, especially Garcinia mangostana is well known as a medicinal plant in South-east Asia and is used in traditional medicine. The paper reported the chemical constituents of the stembark of Garcinia malaccensis together with cytotoxic

The effects of Cinnamomum burmannii and Tinospora crispa on differentiation and glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells were studied. Cells were stimulated to differentiate with differentiation cocktail containing Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 0.25 µM dexamethasone, 0.5 mM 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xan

Garcinia malaccensis Hk.f (Guttiferae) is closely resembled to G. mangostana and G. hombroniana. The genus of Garcinia is well known as a medicinal plant in South-east Asia. The research investigated chemical constituents from the stembark of G. malaccensis together with their cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines. Purification was car
