Introduction: The incidence of type 2 Diabetes in Malaysia has been rising affecting younger individuals over the past years. Early onset type 2 Diabetes (EOT2D) refers to diabetes diagnosed before age of 40 years old. Diabetic retinopathy is the primary cause of vision loss in developed countries. The major objective of this study is to measure an

Biodiesel as an alternative renewable fuel is increasingly being considered as blending components or replacement for traditional petroleum fuels. It consists of different ester molecules with variable levels of unsaturations and chain lengths. Although the acceptance of biodiesel in automobile applications is relatively a successful story, questio

Oxidative stability of three different lipid classes, namely, monogalactosyl diacylglycerol (MGDG) and digalactosyl diacylglycerol (DGDG) from spinach and edible brown seaweed (Akamoku) and triacylglycerol (TAG) of linseed oil was compared. Analysis of oxygen consumption and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) composition demonstrated that spinach DG

In the research of microbial biodiesel, there are numerous studies on biodiesel derived from microalgal lipids. Apart from the microalgae, biodiesel can also be produced using others oleaginous microorganisms such as yeast and fungi. There are studies that showed that oleaginous yeasts and fungi are able to accumulate lipids that can also be used a

Currently, carbon nanotube (CNT) is attracting much interest as fibrous materials for reinforcing aluminum matrix composites due to unique properties, such as high strength, elastic modulus, flexibility and high aspect ratios. However, the quality of the dispersion is the major concerning factor which determines the homogeneity of the enhanced mech

The advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) has opened up a realm of possibilities in developing globally accessible systems and devices. With the current state of internet speeds, these systems offer real-time control, making them more powerful than ever. Simultaneously, the healthcare sector has been witnessing notable advancements, but it also gr

One of the main problems in many rivers is high turbidity. People lose attraction to rivers if the water is turbid. Reduction of turbidity is also one of the main objectives to achieve acceptable water quality for municipal water supply. Turbidity is generally removed by adding chemical coagulants, which show good result, but less environment frien

Application of 3D laser scanning or Scan to Building Information Modelling (Scan-to-BIM) refers to the process of 3D laser scanning of a physical object that creates an accurate digital representation of the object. The representation of the object can then be used for planning, designing, assessing progress and evaluating possibilities in creating

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrythmia observed in clinical practice. Early detection of AF is paramount to prevent fatal complications such as cardiomyopathy, heart failure, and stroke. Manifestation of AF varies, including being either asymptomatic or having transient palpitation, especially for paroxysmal AF. Pulmonary vein isolat

Specific performance is an equitable remedy. As such, the decision whether or not to grant an order of specific performance is at the discretion of the court in the case of executory contracts.4 The rule governing specific performance in Malaysia is statutorily embodied in the Specific Relief Act 1950.5 The Act contains elaborate provisions governi
