Many electronic gadgets now require more power as a result of technological advancements, and to prolong their lifespan, they must all be kept thermally stable. To prevent electronic equipment from operating above their safe operating temperature, numerous techniques are used. Due to its low cost and dependable manner of cooling, the naturally cool

Antibiotik merupakan revolusi penting dalam perubatan moden, dengan penemuan pertama, penisilin, oleh Alexander Fleming pada tahun 1928. Antibiotik digunakan untuk merawat jangkitan bakteria dan telah menyelamatkan jutaan nyawa. Namun begitu, penggunaan antibiotik yang berlebihan dan tidak terkawal telah menyebabkan satu ancaman global iaitu rintan

Hydrogels are attracting increased interest as wound dressings due to their biomimetic properties, which create a moist environment conducive to natural wound healing. In this study, a PVA-PEG/gly-CNF-LG hydrogel incorporating cellulose nanofibers (CNF) and lemongrass essential oil (LG) into the polyvinyl alcohol-polyethylene glycol/glycerin (PVA-P

Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) has emerged as a promising tool for the analysis of the upper airway, leveraging on its ability to provide three-dimensional information, minimal radiation exposure, affordability, and widespread accessibility. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in CBCT for airway analysis has shown improvements in

This sequential exploratory mixed-methods study explores the self-efficacy (SE) of Islamic Education (ISED) teacher trainees in three domains (i.e., curriculum design and implementation, teaching and classroom assessment) as they experienced a four-month teaching practicum at various schools in Malaysia. The survey sample comprised 56 ISED undergra
