The study of the creation of a technical language within an existing natural language reveals to us both the internal and external dynamics of this complex phenomenon. The history of Arabic lexical definitions of different disciplines in the historical Islamic civilization provides us with a wealth of information on how these processes take place a

Positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), which comprises cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) kinase and cyclin T subunits, is an essential kinase complex in human cells. Phosphorylation of the negative elongation factors by P-TEFb is required for productive elongation of transcription of protein-coding genes by RNA polymerase II (pol II).

Elevated blood pressure and elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. Lowering both should reduce the risk of cardiovascular events substantially. In a trial with 2-by-2 factorial design, we randomly assigned 12,705 participants at intermediate risk who did not have cardiovascular disease to ros

The research is an outcome of the Focus Group Discussion (FGD) held on 18-19 November 2014 on the effect of curriculum and teaching materials on the grounding of Islamic foundations into science/engineering education system and how to invest and further develop the integration of Revelation into science/engineering courses. The FGD involved active

This paper presents microfluidic concentration gradient generator having tree-like structures with implementation of laminar flow concept and small-scale mixing through diffusion inside its microchannel. The microchannels aim for constant flow rate at each outlet and is achieved by optimizing the channel lengths. The generation of concentration gra

Islam is a complete way of life and offers holistic and comprehensive solutions to the human life. Manufacturing is one of the fields in which the voice of Islam is hardly heard. The efforts to relate and integrate manufacturing practices with Islamic principles and to eventually create a holistic solution is still lacking. This study is an attempt

Preliminary studies have highlighted on the importance of the street as public space that provide setting for activities and amenities allowing people to do their activities. However, roles of urban street as public space have weakened due to rapid growth development. It is more focused on the transportation compared to the people, making people fe

Tribological behavior of Al–based natural fiber reinforced composites (NFC) brake pad materials was studied using CHASE Dynamometer machine in accordance with Society of Automotive Engineer standard procedure SAE J661. In this study, the NFC sample with a size of 25 mm x 25 mm x 6 mm was fabricated using powder metallurgy route for friction and w

The aim of this study was to extract microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) from cocoa pod husk (Theobroma cacao L.) via alkaline treatment and ultrasonication. The sieved cocoa pod husk (CPH) was treated with 2% w/v sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for 5h at 800C in a water bath. Then, it was bleached by aqueous dilution of hydrogen peroxide at 75oC followed by

This study for the first time provides insight into the bacterial community in the benthic region of the Off-Terengganu Coastline, which is considered to be anthropogenically polluted due to heavy fishing vessel commotion. Subsurface bacteria were randomly collected from two locations at different depths and were examined using the 16S rDNA V3-V4 m
