The aim of this research is to develop biocompatible nanofibrous mats using hydroxyethyl cellulose with improved cellular adhesion profiles and stability and use these fibrous mats as potential scaffold for skin tissue engineering. Glutaraldehyde was used to treat the scaffolds water insoluble as well as improve their biostability for possible use

This paper reports on the user evaluation to examine participants’ acceptance of an e-workspace that has been developed to support the process of teaching, learning and researching manuscripts in the Malay manuscript community. This evaluation is conducted to answer the following research question: a) What is the perceived usefulness of the e-wor

tIn this study, a novel fibrous membrane of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC)/poly(vinyl alcohol) blend wassuccessfully fabricated by electrospinning technique and characterized. The concentration of HEC (5%)with PVA (15%) was optimized, blended in different ratios (30–50%) and electrospun to get smoothnanofibers. Nanofibrous membranes were made water

Philology studies are often associated with traditional methods of teaching and learning. This study shows the best tools that can be implemented in order to make a collaborative work among Malay manuscripts community. The Soft System Methodology (SSM) is used to guide the investigation. The manuscript community comprises lecturers, students and re

In this study, Flowfield Dependent Variation (FDV) method is coupled with Arbitrary Lagrangian- Eulerian (ALE) method in order to solve threedimensional fluid-structure interaction problems. FDV method is a mixed explicit-implicit numerical scheme where its implicitness is determined by several parameters that are dependent on the physical properti

Pre-formulation study is the main phase of drug development. At the early stage of pre-formulation study, characterization has a significant role in determining the physical and chemical properties of a drug candidate. The physicochemical parameters conducted in this study were determination of pH, particle size analysis and solubility test in diff

Objective: To determine the risk factors associated with the occurrence of early childhood caries (ECC) among new paediatric patients at Kulliyyah of Dentistry (KOD), International Islamic University Malaysia (HUM). Materials and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted from March 2013 to October 2013, among 59 new paediatric patients, 4 and

In line with the development of technology today, the assessment of student’s knowledge and performance in higher learning institutions is not only through the summative approach but also the formative approach where evaluations are carried out consistently throughout the semester. To achieve this, several tools to assess students’ knowledge ar

The main objective on this study proposed anti-pornography system works on four machine learning methods in two different stages namely skin detector stage and pornography classifier stage. A multi-agent learning is used twice. In the first stage, we proposes a multi-agent learning method that combines the Bayesian method with a grouping histogram

This paper presents an analytical framework for exploring and critically examining the supply side’s issues and challenges of offering Shari’ah-compliant mortgage financing by cooperative financial institutions in Malaysia. Concepts from five distinct theories (theory of credit cooperative, transaction costs theory, theory of credit rationing,
