Lipase Production: an Insight in the Utilization of Renewable Agricultural Residues
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Bioconversion of agricultural residues for lipase production as well as other value added products would hold a prominent position in future biotechnologies, mainly because of its eco friendliness and flexibility to both developing and developed countries. Several residues such as straw, bran, oil cakes, among others attract increasing attention as

Study of Residual Soil Slope Stability with the Application of Horizontal Drainage
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study determines the effectiveness of horizontal drains on a slope which refers to a landslide at Putrajaya, Malaysia, in 2007. The incident buried 27 cars, and about 1200 people were transferred to a safe place. The main cause was identified as continuous and heavy rainfall. In Malaysia, abundant rainfall is common during the wet season. Ther

Peripheral Blood Buffy Coat Smear: a Promising Tool for Diagnosis of Visceral Leishmaniasis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Confirmative diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is still a challenge at the primary health care facilities in most of the rural areas of endemicity in the Indian subcontinent. Conventional methods for parasitological confirmation are risky and require skilled personnel, and hence they are unavailable to the poor people in the regions of endem

The Effect of Chilled Air on Burr Formation When Drilling Aluminium Alloy in Manufacturing Industry
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Burr formation is a major challenge during drilling which could cause poor assembly and may lead to part rejection. One of the factors which could result in an increment of burr height and deteriorating the hole quality is poor selection of cutting parameters and drilling environment. aluminium alloy (Al7075) is usually drilled in dry condition due

Transforming Carbon Nanotube Forest from Darkest Absorber to Reflective Mirror
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Carbon nanotube (CNT) forests are known to be among the darkest materials on earth. They can absorb the entire visible range of electromagnetic wave more efficiently than any other known black material. We have attempted controlled mechanical processing of the CNTs and, surprisingly, observed mirror-like reflection from the processed area with 10%�

Design and Development of an Intelligent net-Zero Energy Building for Remote, Harsh Weather Locations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

It is generally reckoned that the building industry consumes considerable quantities of energy and material resources [1]. Via energy auditing conducted, it has been observed that the library building in some higher institution consumes tremendous energy among all buildings in the institution. Through energy auditing also, the inefficiency in utili

Animal Sound Activity Detection Using Support Vector Machines
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this research, effects of different level of frequencies as precursor to earthquakes have been investigated. Thus, an artificial station for studying and predicting earthquake and Tsunami using unusual animal behaviors has been developed for monitoring unusual animal behavior and classification done using support vectors machinesRMC/ End of Proj

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Business Ethics is a functional knowledge in business management studies with the objective to educate students with ethical philosophy, knowledge, and skills. Ethics is not a taught course, but there is a need to expose students to ethical values in business. The foundation of conventional Business Ethics is based on rationality philosophical valu

Optical Coherence Tomography and Visual Acuity: Photoreceptor Loss
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

SD-OCT has improved the visualization of intraretinal morphologic features quantitatively and qualitatively. SD-OCT allows the retinal physician to evaluate the integrity of each retinal layer such as the external limiting membrane (ELM) and the junction between the inner and outer segments (IS/OS junction) of the photoreceptors The presence and in
