Introduction: Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) plays important roles in osteoblast differentiation, tooth development and chondrocyte maturation; hence its involvement in craniofacial development is paramount. Mutation in RUNX2 is implicated with cleidocranial dysplasia; a bone development disorder, while single nucleotide polymorphism (

Maillard reaction of gelatin from different sources exhibited similar reaction phases – the slow and the fast. Enzymatic degradation of gelatin prior to maillard reaction caused difference in the production of browning products among the species. Fish gelatin hydrolyzate displayed multi-fold increase in browning in the first six hours compared to

The radio frequency identification (RFID) technology utilizes the radio frequency (RF) wave for identification of a tagged object. The chipless RFID system operates in the microwave band and exploits the ultra-wideband (UWB) technology. Though the reader of this type RFID system comprises a sophisticated electronic circuitry, the tag does not conta

Introduction: The use of assessment tools to measure postnatal mental illness is essential in healthcare settings. However, variations in the types of tools and their reliability in a particular population lead to under-recognition of mental health status in postnatal mothers. The aim of this review is to evaluate the most recent 10 year of researc
