Anacardium occidentaleLinn. (A. occidentaleL.) leaves possess bioactive polyphenols which are associated with antidiabetic potency for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). In this study, free, soluble ester,and insoluble-bound phenolic fractions from young and mature leaves of A. occidentaleL. were extracted. Subsequently, all fractio

The frictional behaviour of three different nano-composites such as 1.5 wt %, 2.0 wt % and 2.5 wt % CNT –Al nano-composite materials developed by powder metallurgy process has been studied with pin-on-disc tribometer, sliding against AISI52100 steel disc. The tribological properties of pure aluminium and carbon nanotube reinforce d aluminium nano

Personality and lifestyles frame individuals’ interpretation of situational information; as such, the encouragement, convenience and reinforcement to behave more environmentally. Issue: Existing research lack empirical evidence on the influence of personality and lifestyle (PL) on external condition (EC) to environmental behaviours. Purpose: This

Caring for the environment is the duty of everyone. Whatever that we have today is actually borrowed from the future generations. They need to be returned in the best shape and manner. However, we are witnessing environmental destruction as the result of actions by mankind. Farming is one of the activities that can be harmful to the environment. He

Allah has instructed all humankind to eat permissible healthy food according to His guidance as narrated in Al-Quran. Following Maqasid as-Shari’ah, it is a Darruriyyah to ensure the safety of food as an act of protecting life. Therefore, the application of antibacterial agent on food aims to improve the consumers’ health and control the herd i

The increasing number of mobile devices using the Android operating system in the market makes these devices the first target for malicious applications. In recent years, several Android malware applications were developed to perform certain illegitimate activities and harmful actions on mobile devices. In response, specific tools and anti-virus pr

Financial inclusion helps in reducing extreme poverty, supporting inclusive development, and enhancing the well-being of the people. As a result, policy makers, regulators and development institutions have made financial inclusion a priority in promoting economic growth and reducing poverty and inequality. One important channel used in promoting ac

A series of thiazole derivatives 1-4 were synthesized employing simple one-pot reaction pathway and characterized via Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H NMR), Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). The newly synthesized compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimicr

The aim of the current paper is to study the hardness behaviour of carbon nanotube reinforced aluminium (CNT-Al) nano composite material under nanoindentation and Vickers micro hardness techniques. The four different types of nano-composites with 1, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 wt% CNT indented by diamond Berkovich indenter in sub microns. The Vickers micro ha

Food antimicrobial agent (FAA) provides the first food defence system against food-borne pathogens and act as an antioxidant in preventing colour and taste changes in processed food products. Although various reports on halal focus on food, a negligible report is available for FAA as a halal food preservative. Muslims are concerned about (1) the FA
