Aim: To study the association between astigmatic anisometropia with visual acuity (VA) and stereopsis. Methodology: Twenty emmetropic adults with normal binocularity in age of 18 to 34 years old, were recruited. Unilateral against-the-rule astigmatism anisometropia was induced in each participant by using -1DC, -2DC, -3DC and -4DC toric soft contac

ملخص البحث: يسلط البحث الضوء على صورة البطولة الموجودة في أشعار الغزوات النبوية عند الصحابي الجليل أبو بشير، كعب بن مالك الأنصاري السلمي، وهو أحد شعراء الرسول  بالإضافة إلى حسان بن ثابت، وعب�

Vaccination is a preventive measure to protect children from infectious diseases. Although it is good immunization for children, some parents are reluctant about having their children immunized. The study attempts to identify patterns of vaccination practice among parents, preferences and sources of vaccine information. This is a descriptive survey

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effects of capital control and external debts after the 1997 financial crisis. Design/methodology/approach: Using system estimation approach, the authors estimate a panel data-based econometric model for data on Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines and South Korea from 1990 to 2017. Findings: Th

Traffic congestion and tidal flow management were recognized as major problems in modern urban areas, which have caused much frustration and loss of man hours. Approach: In order to solve the problem an intelligent RFID traffic control has been developed. It has circumvented or avoided the problems that usually arise with systems such as those, whi

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) resulting in red discoloration of coastal waters in Sepanggar Bay, off Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, East Malaysia, were first observed in January 2005. The species responsible for the bloom, which was identified as Cochlodinium polykrikoides, coincided with fish mortalities in cage-cultures. Determinations of cell density betwe

This paper shall firstly presents the nanotechnology research, investment, education, etc. in the developed countries such as North America, European Union, Japan, etc. Then, the present activities and future action plan for Malaysian nanotechnology were compared. This was done as Malaysia is a fast developing country with its promising vision of 2

In recent years, with the increasing demands of security in our networked society, biometric systems for user verification are becoming more popular. Iris recognition system is a new technology for user verification. In this paper, the CASIA iris database is used for individual user’s verification by using support vector machines (SVMs) which bas

A lab scale study was carried out to produce cellulase enzyme using two types of media: Media B consist of domestic wastewater sludge (DWS), microgranullar cellulose and oil palm empty fruit bunch (EFB) and Media M consist of DWS, microgranullar cellulose, oil palm EFB and addition of methanol. The 3% (v/v) inoculum of Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30 (

This paper discussed focused ion beam micro nano machining to fabricate MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) such as optical elements, trimming of atomic force microscope (AFM) tip, nanopillar, micromilling tool, microcavity for replication is discussed. The trimmed AFM tip was tested in measurement and imaging of high aspect ratio nanopillars whe
