There is no doubt that S&T plays a pivotal role in the economic and social development of any developed country. Developing countries such as Malaysia have also realized the importance of the role of S&T, and have taken measures to develop their S&T systems. Indeed, not only has Malaysia taken the steps to develop her S&T system, bu

An increasing number of azole-resistant Candida albicans strains have arisen due to the evolution of acquired resistance and an epidemiological shift toward less vulnerable species. Here we highlight a case of acute pyelonephritis with candidemia caused by fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans in a patient with no previous exposure to antifungal.A

Science and technology are increasingly influencing the way society operates. New discoveries in science and technology are changing the social, ethical, political, and economic structures all over the world. Today, rich countries are not those endowed with abundant natural resources, but those which have managed to harness their human resources to

This paper includes the performance of a solar assisted heat pump desalination system. Renewable, solar and ambient, energy and waste heat from air conditioning system are used for the production of fresh water. The experiment was conducted under meteorological conditions of Singapore ( 1'21'N; 103'55'E). The coefficient of performa

A method and apparatus for optically generating polarized photons with at least four polarization states is disclosed. The method and apparatus comprises at least two laser sources that are electronically triggered at random to generate at least two optical pulses (102), an arrangement of passive optical components that polarize each optical pulse

Metal foams possess remarkable properties, such as lightweight, high compressive strength, lower specific weight, high stiffness, and high energy absorption. These properties make them highly desirable for many engineering applications, including lightweight materials, energy-absorption devices for aerospace and automotive industries, etc. For such

Perceived threat is recognised as one of the individual's cognitive assessments toward the likelihood of a danger affecting them and how bad it will be if it does. Additionally, coping strategies are a specific effort, that people employ to master, tolerate, reduce or minimize stressful events. Due to the massive impact of the recent COVID-19 g

Works distribution is a routine carried out every day by the head of the branch in the SHARP Service Center. The accuracy of the labor division is very important to get customer satisfaction.
