This article aims to review and highlight the significant and development of tungsten inert gas (TIG) torch surfacing of metallic materials. The emphasis is on the surfacing method of metallic materials using melting processing route. The fusion surfacing methods such as powder injection, wire feed and preplace powder are elaborated. The comparison

Technologies in the classroom require teacher’s knowledge and skills in utilizing it. Teaching for medical student can be different in some areas. To date, no studies has been conducted on the use of technologies among medical lecturer in International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM). Thus, the objective of this survey is to determine the leve

Sarcoma is an aggressive, malignant condition of a breast. It is a rare condition, which makes it difficult to diagnose at clinicopathological study. We are reporting a case of a primary breast sarcoma in a 54-year-old menopausal lady that came with painless fast growing right breast lump within 6 months of duration. Clinically, there was a huge mo

Background and Objective: Ectoparasites remains as one of major challenges in goat farming industry. They are ubiquitous and often cause harmful effects on livestock production and productivity. Ectoparasites give rise to morbidity and mortality among goat population which consequently lead to reductions in meat and milk. This study was conducted t

Theoretically, contracts are inevitably incomplete. Incomplete contract (IC) is characterized by the absence of clearly defined, in its entirety, ex-ante the parties’ requirements, rights and obligations and there are gaps, missing provisions, and ambiguities in its terms. On the one hand, IC exposes the contracting parties to the risk of opportu

Background and objective: Cockroaches are considered as obnoxious household pest due to its nature that can feed on almost everything. It is believed that cockroaches are the mechanical vectors for many kinds of parasites. As this nocturnal insect moves indiscriminately from places to places, the ability to crawl into every nook and crevices can ca

Background: Cockroaches have been long hated by people due to their creepiness and considered as pests.

Negative perception of the community on sensitive diseases like AIDS or sexual transmitted disease (STD) may drive the patients away from seeking treatment and suffe

Purpose: This study predicted three-dimensional (3D) protein structure of Cryptosporidium parvum subtilisin-like serine protease (CpSUB) using homology modelling as the approach of 3D structure prediction. Methods: CpSUB is an extracellular protein comprising of 1324 amino acid residues. Its amino acid sequence was computed to determine the physioc
