As an effort to replace the petroleum-based polymers and reduce waste-related environmental problems, biopolymers are the best candidate due to their renewable, biodegradable and commercially viable. Initiative have been taken by developing durian skin fibre (DSF) reinforced polylactic acid (PLA) biocomposites with the addition of epoxidized palm o

Background: Otoacoustic emission (OAE) suppression is among the tests used to measure the medial olivocochlear system (MOCS) function. Previous works have shown the effectiveness of BBN as a suppressor signals to activate the MOCS due to its large bandwidth (Kalaiah, Nanchirakal, Kharmawphlang & Noronah, 2017). However, the effects of broadband

Efficiency in operations is one of the major contributing factors in ensuring the sustainability of a microfinance institution (MFI). This study attempts to compare the efficiency of a conventional MFI and that of an Islamic MFI to identify lessons to be learned from the best practices of the institutions. To achieve this objective, two MFIs are se

This study described the development and validation of a method that can quantify amentoflavone in the methanol extracts of leaves of three Malaysian Calophyllum species via high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique. Chromatographic analysis was conducted using a reverse phase C18 column with water and acetonitrile (55:45) as the mobi

The performance of factorial designs is still limited due to some uncertainties that usually intensify process complexities, hence, the need for inter-platform auto-correlation analyses. In this study, the auto-correlation capabilities of factorial designs and General Algebraic Modeling System (GAMS) on the effects of some pertinent operating varia

The aim of this paper was to synthesize and characterize microbial chitosan thin films for potential piezoelectric application. Microbial chitosan was derived from the Aspergillus oryzae fungus via extraction and deacetylation. Chitosan thin film was characterized for its surface morphology, chemical properties, tensile strength, and surface topogr

This study describes the development and validation of a method that can quantify amentoflavone (AF) in methanol extracts of leaves of three Malaysian Calophyllum species via a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique. Chromatographic analysis was conducted using a reverse phase C18 column with water/acetonitrile (55:45) as the mobil

Malaysian women are no longer harmless nor immune to violent extremism. It is thus imperative for gender perspectives to be included in the design and implementation of Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) initiatives in Malaysia.9/9/21, 8:38 AM Gendering Countering V iolent Extremism (CVE) Initiatives in Malaysia https://stratsea.com/gendering-cve-i

Background: Among the functions of the medial olivocochlear system (MOCS) are to protect the auditory system against excessive noise, to aid in listening in noise, and to aid in selective attention. This system can be activated by presenting acoustic suppressor signals (such as broadband noise, BBN) to the ear, and its activity can me measured usin
