To ensure that food is always healthy and safe, food business operators utilize a simple and practical method of identifying and verifying microbes. This study looks at the practicality of an inexpensive and user-friendly microbial kit that evaluates the cleanliness level of 72 samples of food-contact surfaces (FCS) of food service establishments i

Total knee replacement is the most successful elective arthroplasty operation with good outcome and fewer complication rates. Despite its successful operation, pain after operation period is still the major factor influencing the decision of patient to undergo operation and the outcome of operation. We study the efficacy of periarticular drug cockt

High amount of reactive silica is ubiquitous in pozzolanic reaction for concrete strength increment. Rice husk ash (RHA) is proven contains high content of amorphous silica that is essential in the pozzolanic reaction of effective additive in concrete. Nevertheless, incorporation of RHA as cement replacement material (CRM) or additive is very minim

This paper focuses on the inclusiveness of Disaster Risk Management. The study assesses proactive adaptation of Early Warning System (EWS) for Disaster Risk Reduction Program in Bertam Valley. The study aims to identify community preferences as an initiative to improve the effectiveness of the EWS system. In order to sustain the awareness and prepa

In this paper, we discuss a dichotomy of iterated means of nonlinear operators acting on a compact convex subset of a finite-dimensional real Banach space. As an application, we study the mean ergodicity of nonhomogeneous Markov chains.Scopus Docu ment details References (9) 1of1 Dichotomy of Iterated Means for Nonlinear Operators (Article) Departm

One of the most frequently asked question in the p-adic lattice models of statistical mechanics is that whether a root of a polynomial equation belongs to domains Zp∗,Zp\Zp∗,Zp,Qp\Zp∗,Qp\(Zp\Zp∗),Qp\Zp,Qp or not. However, this question was open even for lower-degree polynomial equations. In this paper, we give local descriptions of roots of

According to different studies the world is suffering from chronic poverty, with around 3 billion of its population living below $2.50 per day and 80% living below $10 (Shah, 2014). The effects of poverty indiscriminately cut across race, nationality and religion. Governments, non-governmental organizations and international bodies have tried numer

A scrambling square stochastic matrix plays an important role in the theory of the classical Markov chain. One of the classical results states that a row-stochastic matrix is strongly ergodic if and only if its some power is a scrambling matrix. In this paper, we deal with the similar problem for a cubic stochastic matrix. We introduce a notion of

The study to identify the sediment quality changes affected by the increasing human activities along the coastal environment in Kampung Tekek, Tioman Island has been conducted in August 2015. In total, 15 surface sediment samples were collected from three transects in the bay of Kampung Tekek to be analyzed with particle size analyzer (PSA) and los
