Chest x-ray examination nowadays commonly performed using computed radiography (CR) system. This system allows post processing functions which manipulate the digital image. With these functions, too high radiation exposure can still produce acceptable images. Thus there is a tendency for radiographers to use higher exposure when using CR system. Th

Streptococcus pneumoniae is an important pathogen cause various severe illness in human particularly pneumonia, septicaemia and meningitis. One of its virulence factors is hyaluronate lyase, an enzyme which degrades hyaluronic acid (HA), a major component in extracellular matrix of human connective tissues. Degradation of HA decrease host tissue vi

Economy is one of the important tools in the upbringing of human’s civilization. Looking back at the Golden Age of Islam, Muslims merchants were all over the world not just for trading purposes but also to spread the beautiful teaching of Islam. During the reign of Caliph Harun al-Rashid (170-193 A.H.) the Muslim world experienced the best moment

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is developed and used for detection of butter adulteration with lard. Butter has the similar characteristics to lard makes lard a desirable adulterant in butter. DSC provides unique thermal profiling for lard and butter. In the heating thermogram of the mixture, there was one major endothermic peak (peak A) w

Adulteration of butter with cheaper animal fats, such as lard, has become an issue in recent years. A simple and rapid analytical method of attenuated total reflectance in Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was developed in order to determine the lard content in butter. The multivariate calibration of partial least square model for the predict

The authentication of food products from the presence of non-allowed components for certain religion like lard is very important. In this study, we used proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR) spectroscopy for the analysis of butter adulterated with lard by simultaneously quantification of all proton bearing compounds, and consequently all relev

This paper studies the effects of neutron radiation on the electrical behaviour and leakage current mec hanism of quantum dot-in-a-well (DWELL) semiconductor diodes with fluence ranging from 3 to neutron/cm . After neutron irradiation, the forward bias and reverse bias le akage currents showed significant rise approximately of up to two orders of m

This paper introduces a Web-based Counselling System, a non-profit online counselling web portal that was built to provide a platform for counselors to reach out to the general public. We examine the background that induced the conceptualization of the portal, the system’s architecture and design as well as the implementation of the working syste
