Natural products have been recognized and utilized by humans in management of disease, injuries and other health problems. This study was conducted to evaluate cytotoxic and anti- inflammatory activities of Garcinia xanthochymus extracts on cell lines. Roots and stem barks of plant were extracted using maceration method with n-hexane, dichlorometha

Nutrition screening in older adults is not routinely performed in Australian primary care settings. Low awareness of the extent of malnutrition in this patient group, lack of training and time constraints are major barriers that practice staff face. This study aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of including a validated nutrition screening tool an

Fish gelatins obtained from perch fish skin pretreated with various solutions containing acetic acid, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium chloride (NaCl) were successfully characterized for their nanostructure pattern using field emission scanning electron microscopy. Each pretreatment transformed collagen to gelatin with fibril, zigzag cracks, stra

The evolution and development for every mankind and society is essentially built on education as a main pillar. The current weaknesses and slow development in the developing countries require an efficient and effective higher education system, especially in computing as an essential path toward bridging the gap with developed countries. Computing e

This research is related to the mechanism of a development of two degree of freedom plotter using robot arm. In this project, the robot arm that carries the plotter at the end effector that serves as a tool to draw an alphabet such as ‘IIUM’ requires movement to the specific angle, position, speed and coordinates. In the thesis application, I h

Electroless deposition of nickel tungsten on mild steel was conducted using acetic bath, containing nickel sulphate and sodium tungstate in the alkaline medium. The influence of sodium acetate and sodium tungstate on deposits was investigated and characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX) and

obally, the Djibouti Code of Conduct is the second regional agreement in combating piracy and armed robbery against ships in the Western Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden after the ReCAAP. Although it has great potential to contribute in suppressing these maritime crimes in the region, it does not fully address the problem due to its non-binding na

Malaysian waters are prone to armed robberies at sea or other maritime attacks. At the same time Malaysian vessels are vulnerable to piratical attacks on the high seas. This paper first of all examines the seriousness of maritime threats against Malaysia or Malaysian interests. It then carries out an in-depth analysis of the procedural and substant

The interactions of transmembrane (TM) α- helices with the phospholipid membrane and with one another are central to understanding the structure and stability of integral membrane proteins. These interactions may be analyzed via coarse grained molecular dynamics (CGMD) simulations. To obtain statistically meaningful analysis of TM helix interactio
