Background: Crown tooth fracture with open pulp occurs as 2-13% of all injury accidents involving teeth. Most of these cases occurred in newly erupted teeth whose roots are not fully formed. Apexification with calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) is used to stimulate formation of a barrier at the open apex and continue the growth of the apical tooth in the

Diversity and distribution of corals were investigated in Teluk Benuang, Kampung Genting, Pulau Renggis and Teluk Teduh, Tioman Island. The diversity and distribution of corals in all sampling stations were observed and recorded using Coral Video Transect (CVT) method. The captured images were analyzed using Coral Point Count extension (CPCe) softw

Owing to the current worsening situation of the increasing burden of diabetes around the world including Malaysia it is worthwhile to discover non-pharmacological prevention or treatment for it. In order to have a useful explanation of the efficacy of herbs or nutrients for diabetes; it is desirable to know the effect on the balance between the adi

Medicinal plants have been in use for thousands of years for treatment of different types of diseases and a large inventory of useful drugs has been isolated from them. The aim of our study is to investigate a new and effective plant possessing antimicrobial activity. The crude extracts of Tamarix dioica Roxb. leaves, as well as fractions of the ex

In this paper, feasibility of using pseudo-rigid-body modeling technique in examined on a simple modular compliant mechanism. A mathematical model is constructed to determine the non-linear behavior of large-deflections. The problem is solved using an iterative method. The solution to the non-linear model is then compared to empirical results colle

A study on Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn) and Lead(Pb) concentration in fresh water fish Channastriatus -Haruan fish in Pahang, Malaysia was conducted. Three types of fish organs were studied. The organs were; liver, muscle and intestine. They were dissected and dried before the digestion process using HNO3, H2SO4, H2O2 and HCL. Inductively Coupled Plasma

In Sufi literature, abundant materials are devoted to the heart treatment, its purification, along with spiritual enhancement. Ibn ‘Atā’

A study was conducted to determine the total content of carotenoids, in Isochrysis sp. under stress condition (nitrogen starvation). Isochrysis sp. was cultured in f/2 medium at optimum light intensity (1200 Lux) with constant aeration (4.5 L min-1) at 8 pH. Salinity of the water was maintained between 20-24 g L-1 and temperature range was 20-24°C
