In this study, a 2D axisymmetric finite element model of annular surface acoustic wave (A-SAW) resonator to evaluate the SAW propagation was modeled and its focusing properties on lithium niobate substrate was optimized. The analysis concept is based on utilization of patterned annular interdigital electrodes on piezoelectric substrate’s surface

Cancer breast is a growing problem in the community of Malaysia and all over the world. It is considered one of the fatal health problems. It is the most common cancer among female population in both developed and developing countries. (Globacon, IARC, 1008) Similarly, in Malaysia, it is the most common form of cancer affecting women, about 1 in 19

The demand for rare earth elements (REEs) are rapidly increasing each year. The estimated world demand for rare earth elements is 136,000 metric tons per year. This demand is projected to rise to 185,000 metric tons annually by 2015. Currently, China is the global supply of the REEs. To overcome this problem, Malaysia has become one of the countrie

In this paper, the fabrication of piezoresistive microcantilever (PRM) sensor was realized through the utilization of bulk micromachining technology. Through a sequence of photolithography and etching processes, the device fabrication is realized. The fabrication of two PRM designs, dual-layer and single-layer has opened up the opportunity for devi

The present study demonstrates the antioxidant activity and cell migration effect of a standardized extract of C. asiatica. The ethanol extract was fractionated into seven fractions via vacuum liquid chromatography. The interest compound in the fractions was qualitatively identified using thin layer chromatography and the positive fraction with asi

The cosmetic industry is growing rapidly, and cosmetic products are becoming an essential part of our daily lives. Moreover, increased usage of cosmetic products has caused a growing concern about the safety of these products, and yet little is known about cosmetics from the consumers’ perspective. Hence, this study’s aims are to explore consum

Fibrinolytic enzymes were widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the efficiency of the commercial enzymes are still lack of perfection because there are many side effects as well as not tolerant to downstream processing such as heat sensitive during spray drying process. Therefore, this study presents newly isolated therm

The statistic have shown that the breastfeeding initiation rate in Malaysia is high (90%) but most mother did not continue to breastfeed their child beyond the age of 4 months as recommended by who. One of the reasons that these mothers stopped breastfeeding is because they lack support from people around them specially their employers. Therefore.

Tourism has been one of the largest contributors towards Malaysian GDP over the last three decades. In essence, Malaysia generated 1,795,500 employments in 2013 of which some 6.5% of the total employment was created in the tourism sector. The study deals with extraction of tourists’ expenditure in five tourism sectors, accommodation, food and bev

This study was undertaken to determine the presence of antibiotic resistant bacteria in sediment of coastal water of Pahang, Malaysia. A total of 125 bacteria were isolated from sediment samples of Tanjung Lumpur (A and B), Teluk Chempedak, Batu Hitam and Balok and tested against 10 different antibiotics by disc diffusion method. In Teluk Chempedak
