Enhancing the functionalities and properties of enzymes via computational prediction is an emerging technology. In order to design new thermostable enzymes, we have employed molecular dynamics (MD) simulation techniques to find out the dynamics factors responsible for the thermal stability of known endoglucanases (EG). Mesophilic endoglucanases fro

A lot of people are enjoying the services of a wide range of religious institution, especially in the modern era. While these institutions care for the spiritual aspects of individuals and groups in Western countries, in the Muslim world religious institutions are covering different areas including supervising spiritual and religious life, solving

The research clarifies the ambiguities and proposes suggestions to overcome weaknesses and loopholes in the law.

In this paper, we examine the interrelations between bank lending, macroeconomic conditions and financial uncertainty for an emerging economy, Malaysia. Adopting time series techniques of cointegration, causality and vector autoregressions (VARs), we arrive at the following main results. We note long run positive relations between real output and b

Introduction / Purpose: Scattered radiations could reach the angiographic staff’s eyes during procedures and cause radiation induced cataract. The aim of this study was to correlate between scattered radiation doses and the heights of staff’s eyes at several positions in an angiography room. Methodology: An anthropomorphic Kyoto Kagaku PBU-31 p

Due to the growing need for bandwidth conservation and enhanced quality in wireless cellular and satellite communication, the research of low bit rate speech coder with acceptable quality is becoming increasingly important. Applications like Digital cellular and satellite telephony, video conferencing and internet voice communications, all have an

Tourism is an exclusive economic opportunity that leads to lifestyle changes. It potentially brings vitality and economic as well as cultural dynamism to a place. Hence, in order to attract domestic and international tourists, many countries embark on intensive efforts by providing and developing travel sites as well as facilities to facilitate the

A new concept of a multistage evacuated solar still was developed; a full size prototype was constructed and tested. The amounts or condensate produced generated from each stage was collected separately and measured frequently. The overall results showed that the productivity of the new concept is highly better under the cloudy low solar radiation

This article outlines a study of the dynamics of group communication between ethnically diverse members in an academic setting. The study provides an understanding of how ethnic diversity influences communication in small groups of academics. Drawing on in-depth interviews with forty academic researchers from five universities in Malaysia, it is sh
