The green synthesis of nanoparticles that have environmentally acceptable solvent systems and eco-friendly reducing agents is of great importance. Meanwhile, the synthesis of metal nanoparticles of different sizes, shapes, chemical composition and controlled monodispersity is a key area of research in nanotechnology because of their fascinating phy

Despite a considerable progress in the treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), it remains a major medical challenge in the 21st century, threatening the health and economy of all nations particularly the developing countries. Spices which are added to the preparation of diets for taste and aroma have been shown to be effective in the control

Endoglucanase is one of the three enzymes required to synergistically hydrolyze cellulose to sugar monomers which can be fermented into ethanol. Hence efforts to improve the efficiency of this enzyme, using experimental and computational approaches have been continuing vigorously. An endoglucanase, FOegI, which is same as the wellcharacterized endo

Raloxifene hydrochloride, a highly effective drug for the treatment of invasive breast cancer and osteoporosis in post-menopausal women, shows poor oral bioavailability of 2%. The aim of this study was to develop, statistically optimize, and characterize raloxifene hydrochloride-loaded transfersomes for transdermal delivery, in order to overcome th

The culture of Kuala Lumpur city dwellers is fast paced in addition to the rapid development in urban areas that contributes further to the built environment landscape. This community needs an opportunity to escape from the hustle and bustle of their daily routine to areas that promotes tranquility, greenery and humility. However, open spaces with

The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) continues to rise in an exponential rate so as the oral hypoglycemic agents (OHA) and their worsening effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of mixed herbs, as ad-on therapy on blood sugar and lipid profile of the patients with T2DM. The dietary manipulations in the form of mixed

Herbs and spices are believed to possess hypoglycemic effects in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients. 20 patients were recruited from the Medical Outpatient Department of Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan (HTAA) Kuantan Pahang, Malaysia.

Deception in online content is not uncommon. This research focuses on investigating deception in the context of online-Islamic content. Previous studies have shown that some of the online content claiming to be about Islamic values, ethics and ideology is in fact aimed at deceiving people about the truth of Islamic ideologies, values and ethics. Th

This paper presents a robust state feedback controller tuning via constrained optimization using DE (differential evolution). The controller gain is optimized based on the plant model such that the closed-loop system achieves maximum stability radius. The desired control performance is specified by assigning closed-loop poles region which is handle

Introduction: Mesenteric cyst is rare intra-abdominal lesions(1)(2) and account for only one in 100,000 acute adult admissions(1). It can occur at any age. Usually, it was found incidentally unless the cyst became complicated(2). Most common presenting symptoms are abdominal mass, distention, pain and vomiting(3). Although uncommon, complications s
