We have developed one approach to fingerprint and estimate the active compounds in the leaves of Vitex trifolia Linn possessing anti-tracheospasmolytic assay using two-dimensional TLC pattern comparison. Based on the two-dimensional TLC pattern and the activity of the centrifugal partition chromatography fractions, we concluded that the semi polar

This paper presents an EEG-based emotion recognition system using self-organizing map for boundary detection. Features from EEG signals are classified by considering the subjects’ emotional responses using scores from SAM questionnaire. The selection of appropriate threshold levels for arousal and valence is critical to the performance of the rec

Aims: To present findings on low blood vitamin D status and its association with obesity among primary school children in Kuala Lumpur. Methods: A cross-sectional study of primary aged school children was undertaken in 2008. Six primary schools were randomly selected from a zone in Kuala Lumpur with a multi-ethnic population from middle income leve

This paper investigates and presents conditions that guarantee disturbance decoupled fault reconstruction using sliding mode observers, which are less stringent than those of previous work, and show that disturbance reconstruction is not necessary. An aircraft model validates the ideas proposed in this paper.

One important feature of Islamophobia is to caricature Islam as misogynistic and oppressive to women and thus to advance imperialist hegemony. This “gendered Islamophobia” stigmatizes the religion even though, compared to other world religions, its treatment of women is arguably preferable and more enlightened. Historically, one treasonous use

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) is an example of private sector practices developed and implemented in public sector organizations to improve the performance of public services delivery to its optimum level. This paper proposes a case study on one Local Governments (LGs) in Malaysia to investigate the organizational changes through the developmen

Literature tells us the story of human life. Like any other literary tradition, English literature concerns human beings, their experiences, sorrows and happiness. This is also very much the case with the religion of Islam whose fundamental message is, as Muslims believe, about what is good and what is bad for human beings, as it is about their wel

The relationship between two classes of retrieval process—retrieval orientation and retrieval effort—was investigated using electrophysiological (ERP) and behavioural measures. ERPs were recorded during retrieval phases of exclusion tasks in which participants focused on retrieval of either phonological or semantic associates that were generate

Litigations in cross border transactions are inevitable. There would be legal uncertainty and ambiguity without identifying the governing law and the appropriate forum for settling disputes arise from the cross border transactions. Accordingly, the application of both choice of law and choice of forum clauses are vital in Islamic banking and financ
