Objective: To use the brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) to test the hypothesis that auditory function could be worse in older horses than in younger horses. Procedure: BAER waveforms in response to click stimuli were measured in five younger horses (5–8 years) and four older horses (17–22 years). Results: Compared with the younger horse

The aim of this study was to determine if high stimulus repetition rates could reduce the time taken to obtain brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) waveforms of equivalent quality in dogs. Click-evoked BAER waveforms were obtained from nine healthy, adult, mixed-breed dogs at stimulus intensities of 70, 60, 50 and 40 decibels (normal hearing l

The Maldives has been striving to pioneer Islamic banking for the past few years. For a starter, guidance from the emperor of Islamic banking would be indispensable. Malaysia is the emperor of it. Starting from 1983, it has been practicing Islamic banking up until now. Today, by gradually correcting the mistakes that has been made over the years, M

This study aims at describing the characteristics of the microalgae oil extraction from N annochloropsis sp. using soxhlet and ultrasonic. There were two extraction processes that were investigated,Soxhlet-assisted Extraction (SE) and Ultrasonic-assisted Extraction CUE) and both used ethanol solvent. A combination of several criteria was selected t

This paper provides a description of the development of the ‘Study of Comparative Literature’; its naming, origins, schools of study, and scope of study.

The purpose of this study is to investigate ethics education in the accounting curricula of Malaysian public universities based on the perception of the educators. The study explored preparedness of educators in teaching ethics, preferred methods of ethics instruction, and educators’ perceptions of importance of ethics integration. Consistent wit

In addition to commercial consumer market, high quality and multichannel audio has become more relevant in many other fields. More lossless audio compression standards and algorithm are proposed to tackle the problem of reducing the size of a raw audio bitstream without loss of data. This paper has two objectives. First, we aim to review and analyz

Over the years, lossless audio compression has gained popularity as researchers and businesses has become more aware of the need for better quality and higher storage demand. This paper will analyse various lossless audio coding algorithm and standards that are used and available in the market focusing on Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) specifically

Organizations that rely heavily on ICT face bigger challenges to safeguard their information assets. Organizations need to be vigilant to cope with ever growing information security risks and threats due to technological advancement. All employees, from the senior management to the junior subordinate, have the responsibility to protect organization
