We compared a newer serum specific IgE (SSIgE) test with skin prick testing (SPT) in the diagnosis of allergy in Malaysia. Ninety newly diagnosed allergic patients were enrolled for both tests. Using SPT as a clinical gold standard,the sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values (PPV, NPV) were calculated for SSIgE for each o

Objective:To study the prevalence and patterns of contrecoup injury in traumatic temporal bone fracture cases.Method:A prospective, cohort study was undertaken of all patients with traumatic head injury admitted to a tertiary referral hospital in Malaysia within an 18-month period. High resolution computed tomography scans of the brain and skull ba

The effects of power-supply interference on direct sensor-to-microcontroller interfaces based on measuring the charging and discharging time of an RC circuit that includes the sensor is observed in this assignment. By analysing the RC circuit, it shows that the measurement can be corrupted because of the power-supply trigger noise. To reduce the ef

The concept of ecological design has produced positive results in terms of supporting the achievement of sustainable development in many fields. However, its practice currently faces many challenges due to many influential factors such as the low level of acceptance amongst stakeholders. As such, this research attempts to study the application of e

Commercially available bromelain is prepared by performing a tedious and costly purification method that provides multiple degrees of purified bromelain. In the current study, a gene encoding stem bromelain from Ananas comosus was amplified using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This bromelain gene was initially cloned into pENTR/TEV/D-TOPO before

Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus) from the family of Malvaceae is a valuable fibre plant native to India and Africa. Kenaf is composed of various active components including tannins, polyphenolics, alkaloids, essential oils and steroids. In this study, kenaf seeds oil was used as a material in observing the anticancer activity on MCF-7 cancer cells line
