Objectives: To determine the extent of microbial contamination on the high touch areas of equipment in the dental laboratory. Method: A dental laboratory based cross-sectional study was carried out on four selected high touch areas, which were the vibrator (power switch), the cast trimmer (power switch) and the denture polisher (power switch &

This study aims to develop comprehensive criteria for evaluating Arabic Textbooks in teaching Arabic as a second language. To decide what criteria were important, a review of related literature was conducted by taking into consideration the criteria and studies conducted by Rushdie Toeima, Harun Husaini, Jaya Karan, Skierso, ACTFL and Malaysia Mini

The aim of this research was to study the effect of the Ficus deltoidea (Mas Cotek) leaves on fasting blood sugar, renal and lipid profile of Type II diabetic patients. This study was carried out at Polyclinic Balok, located in Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia. Twenty patients participated in the study and they were divided into two (2) groups of ten (10)

Increased public awareness posed for global climate change has led to greater concern over the impact of environmental changes due to constant emissions of air pollutants from industrial production. Wet scrubbers have important advantages when compared to other air pollution control devices. They can collect particulates like flammable and explosiv

Like other radar systems, Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) maritime radar can measure simultaneously the range, velocity, reflectivity and azimuth of targets on the sea. However, compared with conventional pulse radar, FMCW radar has many advantages. It is relatively small and simple, offers high resolution, provides data over wide bandwi

The natural antioxidant contents in the ethanol extract of the seeds of four varieties of Roselle (UKMR-1, UKMR-2, UKMR-3, and UMKL-1) and Kenaf (V36) were evaluated. The ground seeds were extracted in ethanol by a Soxhlet apparatus. The results indicated that the highest seeds’ extract yield was V36 (27%), followed by UKMR-2 (21%), UMKL-1 (20%),

Rain fade slope is very useful knowledge used to design of the fade countermeasures in satellite communication link. Recently, ITU-R has proposed fade slope model by limiting elevation angle up to 500. Rain fade slope was measured from downlink of space-earth path of MEASAT3 in Kuala Lumpur (3.30 N, 101.70 E), Malaysia for one year period during 1s

Statistical analysis is fundamental information for system engineer to design and plan satellite communication link. Fade duration is one aspect of fade dynamics that contributes designing of fade mitigation techniques (FMT). This paper presents statistical analysis on fade duration on high elevation angle (77.4°) in Ku-band carried out in Kuala L

The chapter starts with a section on ageing and memory. It aims to provide some answers as to why increased age is commonly associated with a decline in cognitive ability, especially memory performance. A section on AD is first presented, followed by a discussion of the potential of newly developed of non-biological explanations for the disease. Th
