Introduction: Infection is a dreaded complication of open fracture in the field of orthopaedics. This study was conducted to evaluate the susceptibility of microorganism involved in early infection of open fractures to current prophylactic antibiotics practice and determine the association of various characteristics to the resistance of such microo

Recently, it is observed that students of the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Gombak campus are deteriorating in their dressing and some do not wear clothes according to the Dress Code laid down by IIUM. This has caught the attention of the Students Council. As such, the objectives of this research are (1) to analyze the relations

Model-based methods estimating patient-specific respiratory mechanics may help intensive care clinicians in setting optimal ventilation parameters. However, these methods rely heavily on the quality of measured airway pressure and flow profiles for reliable respiratory mechanics estimation. Thus, asynchronous and/or spontaneous breathing cycles tha

In this study, solid coconut waste and CaO/PVA was used as raw material and catalyst respectively to produce biodiesel through in situ transesterification. Both, raw material and catalyst were packed in a packed bed reactor. The reaction was fixed for 3 h and the mixing was kept constant at 350 rpm. The highest biodiesel yield of 95% was obtained a

Malaysia is the first country in the world which has successfully come out with a general guideline for halal pharmaceuticals. As a new sector, halal pharmaceuticals offers a lot of opportunities for industrial player, but also challenges that need to be accepted. Gelatine is one of the big issues in producing halal pharmaceutical products. 46% of

There is growing interest towards biopolymerbased nanofibres due to its superior mechanical properties and environmentally friendly functions. Chitin nanofibres may be of interest as a component for nanocomposites. Decolourisation effectively enhance the desirability of chitin nanofibres as it can be used without changing the natural colour of base

Today punishment of imprisonment is seen to be given a less prominent significance in terms of punishing offenders as a means of rehabilitation and reducing recidivism rates throughout the world. However, it is found that the Maldivian courts have adopted a pattern of punishing offenders through imprisonment as a general form of punishment for almo

The aerodynamic drag on trucks can be reduced by use of active and passive techniques. In this work a passive method of using a cab-extender that is attached to the rear of the tractor is attempted. This cab-extender will help in reducing the drag force that act on the truck by minimizing the gap between the tractor and trailer. In this study, a tr

Scientific research is the backbone of all discoveries, inventions, and creation of facts, ideas, reasons, devices, tools, etc. One of the main sources of doing a good research is having access to good, comprehensive, reliable, and up to date references, which can be a problem in many cases. In this talk I will try to show the importance of the hol
