Extensive processing of sea cucumber causes body deformation of the marine organism, hence causing difficulties in species identification of processed sea cucumbers. Due to the copresence of cases of unlabelled or mislabelled sea cucumber products in Malaysian markets and worldwide, a study was conducted to determine the species identities of proce

Human milk contains a lot of nutrient and it offers advantages to infant age less than six months. Polyamines in milk accelerate the in-fants’ gut maturation and protect babies from the harsh environment. Maternal diet is a factor which can affect the polyamines variability in milk. To date, no research on local diet and the composition of human

A checklist for commercially important food fishes from Parangipettai, Southeast coast of India is presented (lat. 11̊ 30’ N, long. 79̊ 46’ E). This comprises 93 species belonging to 57 genera and 42 families currently known from the area, which are all of commercially valuable. We provided a synthesis of the taxonomical work carried out unti

Ceramic membranes are an inorganic membrane that received great attention as it overcome the limitation of polymeric membrane. The silica ceramic membrane can be used in gas separation as it able to work at elevated temperature and in chemically aggressive environment. This work is conducted to study the influence of the molar ratio of water (R) on

Previous work employed digital image analysis using a fully-automated computer software to quantify changes in MG, which is meibomian gland loss. However, semi-automated software is more favorable for clinical applications as it allows clinicians to manually delete undesired noise or artifacts. Purpose: To study the intra- and inter-grader reliabil

Kemahiran mendengar adalah kemahiran pertama yang berlaku kepada penuntut bahasa. Semua perkataan yang didengar merupakan proses pertama untuk keperluan pembelajaran bahasa. Oleh kerana bahasa Arab bukan bahasa utama di negara kita, maka proses mendengar kosa kata adalah terhad ataupun tidak di dalam kondisi yang dapat memberi impak. Oleh itu kosa

Fabrication of silica ceramics via the sol-gel method has offered more advantages over other methods in the fabrication of ceramic membrane, such as simple operation, high purity homogeneous, well defined-structure and complex shapes of end products. This work presents the fabrication of silica ceramic membrane via sol-gel dip-coating methods by va

The main focus of this research is to evaluate the effects of land use density, land use diversity, pedestrian infrastructures on rail-based transit ridership. From the previous literature, it is well known that these three main components would have adverse effects on transit ridership – the higher the land use density, diversity, and good pedes

Head and neck cancer (HNC) is among the common cancer in Malaysia. Depending on the location of the cancer in head and neck region, each type of HNC has its own characteristics and prevalence to specific gender and ethnicity. The remote and inaccessible location of the cancer also cause the difficulty to detect the cancer. This make the cancer usua

Islamic microfinance is a powerful Shariah-compliant tool for helping the impoverished escape the cycle of poverty in Bangladesh. Despite a few applications of Islamic microfinance instruments, most of the instruments have been based on Murabahah contracts, while the use of equity or partnership-based contracts has been very minimal.
