Introduction: Leptospirosis is a preventable zoonosis of public health importance. Due to increasing incidence of leptospirosis and seasonal floods affecting Kuantan community, a study was conducted to identify the determinants of leptospirosis preventive practices. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out in Perkampungan Sungai Isap, Kuant

Locally invented coagulant from Malaysian peat soil was effective for the clarification of lake and river water. Study was performed on stagnant lake water using model water bodies treated with peat coagulant. Better water quality was found in peat coagulant treated lake water compared to the lake water without peat coagulant treatment. The Dissolv

The motion of the fluid past a body is of great interest for academic research due to its various practical applications. This kind of fluid flow is known as a boundary layer flow. Various topics in boundary layer flow and heat transfer are presented in this book. These include the unsteady case, magnetohydrodynamics case, two phase flow, nanofluid

Centella asiatica or locally known as “Pegaga” is a well-known herb that has been used in folklore medicine for centuries to treat skin problem, asthma, sstomach disorder and to improve memory. Moreover, Centella asiatica extracts exhibited significant antinocicetive activities at the central and peripheral levels. This , this research aimed to

Leptospirosis is a preventable zoonosis of public health importance. Due to seasonal floods and paucity of studies regarding leptospirosis preventive practices in community setting in this country, a study was conducted to determine spatial distribution of knowledge, attitude and practice on leptospirosis preventive practices using stratum risk ide

This paper presents a simple resistance-to-time converter. It consists of two voltage comparators, a ramp voltage generator, two logic gates and impulse voltage calibrators. A square-wave generator circuit is suggested in this paper. The design is simple and independent of the OPAMP offset issues. The resulting square-wave is rectified to get its D

Introduction: Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the major causal agent for the fourth most frequent cancer in women which is cervical cancer. HPV vaccine is already available as the primary prophylactic method for cervical cancer.
