Searching and sorting misplaced books is a difficult task often carried out by the library personnel. Quite often, librarians are busy with searching misplaced books which are left in wrong locations by library users. It is quite difficult and almost impractical to place back all books to their assigned locations daily. To overcome this, Radio Freq

We investigate the security of a model based on continuous variable QKD with Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations against Gaussian clone-anticlone attacks. We find that the eavesdropper distils more information using the individual Gaussian anticlone attack than the optimal Gaussian cloner. However, a secure key can still be generated for the trans

Ethnic folklore or empirical therapeutic uses of plant parts have often provided the early indication of the possibility of discovering some pharmacologically active substance from a plant. Melastoma malabathricum L. (Melastomaceae), locally known as sendudok putih, is a small shrub. Traditional medicinal uses include diarrhea, dysentery, ulcers, w

Nutritional support is vital in improving the clinical outcomes of the critically ill patients. Almost all published guidelines regarding nutritional support in the critically ill recommend the use of enteral nutrition over parenteral nutrition. In acute pancreatitis, trial of enteral feeding should be given into the small bowel. The success rate o

We study the validity of the entanglement parameter introduced in a recent publication by Guangqiang et al. Phys. Rev. A 73 012314 (2006)] for detecting Eve, the eavesdropper. We have found that Eve can be detected using this parameter only if Alice establishes a quantum correlation between the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) pair. This quantum corre

This paper discusses the core constituent of Islamic religion namely al-tawhid as the first level or principle of the religion and its role in defining or influencing the other layers or dimensions of Islamic religiosity. Its objectives are 1) to demonstrate an integrated Islamic approach in the study of religion and society/culture, and 2) to prov

British policy was to preserve and protect the Malay race on the assumption that they, despite being the majority, are historically a disadvantaged race. In addition, they were in need of economic protection against the more aggressive immigrants. Therefore, with the declaration of independence in 1957, a new written constitution was formulated for

Cellulase production was carried out by solid state bioconversion (SSB) method using rice straw, a lignocellulosic material and agricultural waste, as the substrate of three Trichoderma spp. and Phanerochaete chrysosporium in lab-scale experiments. The results were compared to select the best fungi among them for the production of cellulase. Phaner

Rhazya stricta is a small glabrous shrub, widely distributed throughout Western Asia from Yemen to Arabia, to the North West Province of India and abundantly found in various regions of Pakistan. Larvicidal and antifungal studies of polar and non polar aerial parts extracts of Rhazya stricta were performed using brine shrimps larvae for larvicidal

The evolution, from 1 to 10 days after germination, of flavonoid content in sprouts of tartary buckwheat (Fagopyrum tataricum Gaertn.), grown in a greenhouse under low light conditions (16 mmol m�2 s�1), was investigated. Chlorogenic acid and flavonoids including C-glycosylflavones (orientin, isoorientin, vitexin, isovitexin), rutin and quercet
