Batch, Column and Thermodynamic of Pb(Ii) Adsorption on Xanthated Rubber (Hevea Brasiliensis) Leaf Powder
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Rubber (Hevea brasiliensis) leaf powder was modified by xanthation process and its potential in removing toxic Pb(II) ion from aqueous solutions was investigated in batch and column experiments. Pb(II) adsorption efficiency was found to be affected by several physicochemical parameters such as adsorbent dosage, shaking rate and temperature. The opt

Performance Evaluation of Uncoordinated Beamforming Over Cognitive Radio Network
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents the two strategies of jointlyoptimized uncoordinated beamforming algorithms for cognitive radio networks. Here, we evaluate the performance of signal-tointerference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) and achievable sum rate of the system when both primary and secondary users transmit concurrently over the same spectrum. We present the opti

The struct

Comparison of Serum Specific Ige with Skin Prick Test in the Diagnosis of Allergy in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

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

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

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

Evaluation of Diagnostic Accuracy of Different Biomarkers for Prostate Cancer
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objective: Serum total prostate specific antigen (PSA), free fraction of total prostate specific antigen percent (fPSA %) and prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) have all been considered as valuable non-invasive tumor markers for prostate cancer. This study was carried out to evaluate and compare the performances of serum total PSA, fPSA% and

The study aims at examining students' attitude towards Arabic Writing, prior and subsequent to the utilisation of Facebook, a social website, as a medium of writing activities and instructions. 21 students of Advanced Arabic Writing Skills at IIUM were selected as the subjects of the study. A 14-item questionnaire was distributed to the subject

Thermal Properties of Pla/kenaf Green Nanocomposite: Effect of chemi-Mechanical Treatment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study was conducted to produce green composite from kenaf with better thermal properties. Kenaf fibre was successfully prepared by chemi-mechanical method. Kenaf fibre was firstly treated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) at 6% w/w followed by acidic treatment with different concentrations (0.5M, 1.0M and 1.5M). The PLA/kenaf nanofibre composites w
