Pakistan comprised of two different regions, namely West Pakistan and East Pakistan (present-day Bangladesh), which remained geographically disjointed from each other

Copepods have been found as one of the best live feed in aquaculture. This study was carried out to determine the development time, growth performance and fatty acid content of a marine copepod, Amphiascoides neglectus, potentially become live feed for marine larval rearing. The laboratory experiments were designed to expose the population of A. ne

As a pluralistic nation, Malaysia consists of diverse ethnic groups of people with various cultures that integrate harmonious and peaceful living in a politically stable and wonderfully rich environmental setting. Due to such unique features, people from abroad become largely attracted to this land and thus frequently arrive here as visitors and to

Lignocellulosic biomasses, exhibit resistance to enzymatic hydrolysis due to the presence of lignin and hemicellulose. Ionic liquids proved their applicability in lignin degradation, however, ionic liquid removal has to be performed to proceed to hydrolysis. Therefore, this study reports an in situ hydrolysis of empty fruit bunches (EFB) that combi

Telecommuting is increasingly gaining attention in Malaysia as a means of both easing the worsening peak-hour traffic congestion, and retaining women in the workforce.

We consider an optimal quantum key distribution setup based on minimal number of measurement bases with binary yields used by parties against an eavesdropper limited only by the no-signaling principle. We note that in general, the maximal key rate can be achieved by determining the optimal tradeoff between measurements that attain the maximal Bell

Natural fibre is becoming less-frequently used in the current textile industry with the development of new technology whereby the use of synthetic fibre becomes eminent. Since the use of the nature-based thread in the textile restoration has not been thoroughly explored through scientific research, the objective of this study was to determine and a
