The article elaborates researchers’ challenges in designing a structured survey on B40 urban women across three major ethnic groups in a multi-ethnic city of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is an outcome of a sociological, quantitative research. A major focus of this article is to enrich the knowledge associated with designing a survey questionnaire i

Tyrosinase is the main enzyme that catalyzes the browning of fruits, fungi and vegetables, and melanogenesis process in mammals. Kojic monooleate (KMO) is an ester produced via esterification of kojic acid (KA) with oleic acid and has the potential as a tyrosinase inhibitor. Previously, we have reported the optimization study of the KMO nanoemulsio

Perkembangan teori semantik semakin terus berkembang pada abad ini. Begitu juga dalam konteks semantik formal iaitu teori struktur konseptual yang dianjurkan oleh Ray Jackendoff (2010). Kajian ini akan membincangkan konsep utama dalam pembinaan teori ini dan dapatan data dengan menggunakan leksikal gerak bersifat ruang bersifat arah iaitu balik bag

Agak aneh di abad ke-21 ini untuk kita terus membicarakan masalah kemiskinan haid dan pengurusannya yang hingga kini masih tidak dapat dikendalikan secara berkesan oleh kebanyakan masyarakat. Matlamat Pembangunan Lestari (SDG) meletakkan Matlamat-1 untuk mengakhiri kemiskinan dalam segala bentuk walau di mana sahaja. Namun, kemiskinan haid masih be

This paper describes the efficient arbitration scheme of an interface that provides access by multiple AMBA processors to targets in SoC (System on the Chip). The arbiter receives requests from several processors and issues grant signals by using its internal arbitration process to that processor allowed to get control over the bus through the AHB

Cross-societal differences in cooperation and trust among strangers in the provision of public goods may be key to understanding how societies are managing the COVID-19 pandemic. We report a survey conducted across 41 societies between March and May 2020 (N = 34,526), and test pre-registered hypotheses about how cross-societal differences in cooper

Emerging applications of amino acids in the development of biopharmaceuticals, functional foods and feeds, and biostimulants in sustainable agriculture have led to increasing interests in the development of commercially-viable technologies for amino acid production. Amongst the many technologies currently used, subcritical water reaction has the po

Dehalogenase E (DehE) is a non-stereospecific enzyme produced by the soil bacterium, Rhizobium sp. RC1. Till now, the catalytic mechanism of DehE remains unclear although several literature concerning the structure and function of this enzyme are available. Since DehE is nonstereospecific, the enzyme was hypothesized to follow a ‘direct attack me
