Composite materials, incorporating noble metal and metal oxide nanoparticles, have attracted much interest as active substrates for biosensor electronics. These nanoparticles provide a viable microenvironment for biomolecule immobilization by retaining their biological activity with desired orientation and for facilitating transduction of the biore

Carbon Fibre Composites (CFC) are commonly used in aerospace, automotive and civil industries to manufacture high performance products which require high strength with low weight. They are usually produced to near net shape, however machining such as milling is frequently performed to achieve dimensional accuracy. This paper presents the effect of

The relationship that exists between fatwa andijtihad, ijma’, Qiyas,istislah and istihsan is significant to the development of Shari‘ah. Although, the terms seem to be different in the actual sense, but sometimes they do overlap each other, as they all focus in achieving same goal. The paper realized that ijtihad, ijma’, Qiyas, istislah and i

Increasing demands for high precision environmental protection measures regarding particulate matter (PM) emission from industrial productions and non-linear characteristics of spray tower system lead to the application of an intelligent control technique to adequately deal with these complexities. This includes the use of an artificial neural netw

The present work reports the synthesis and characterization of graphene via electrochemical exfoliation of graphite rod using two-electrode system assisted by Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS) as a surfactant. The electrochemical process was carried out with sequence of intercalation of SDS onto the graphite anode followed by exfoliation of the SDS-int

The study reports on the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from wastepaper, as an environmental friendly approach of source material, which can be a high availability and low-cost precursor for cellulose nanomaterial processing. Alkali and bleaching treatments were employed for the extraction of cellulose particles followed by controlled

Cellulose nanomaterials processing for aerogel preparation has received considerable attention among the scientific community due to its fascinating properties. In this work, we report on the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) aerogel from wastepaper using a freeze-drying technique. Structural analysis of the cellulosic particles extracte

The incidence of antibiotic resistance and its side effect have urged scientist to search for new antimicrobial substances. Cinnamons are rich in essential oils which mainly consist of cinnamaldehyde as its bioactive compounds. The present study was designed to postulate the mode of antimicrobial actions of both essential oil and cinnamaldehyde aga

Asset ownership is an important aspect of ṣukūk structuring and issuance. However, a recurring and contentious issue regarding the underlying ṣukūk asset is the actual nature of its ownership and the corresponding legal implications for ṣukūk holders and other parties in the ṣukūk transaction. Many ṣukūk are based solely on beneficia

Metalloproteases represent the largest fraction of the global enzyme market. For biotechnological purposes 31 the accumulation of product (i.e. productivity) provides the best measure of assessing enzyme performance 32 because it takes into account the interplay between activity, stability, activation and inhibition. Studies 33 assessing the produc
