Cyclic Voltammetry and Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy of Electrodes Modified with Pedot:pss-Reduced Graphene Oxide Composite
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) are electrochemical techniques to characterize reversibility of electron transfer and impedance at the electrode-solution interface, respectively. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and conductive polymer PEDOT:PSS are often used to enhance electron transfer at electrode surface. This ch

alpha-Amylase Inhibitory Activity of Inhibitor Proteins in Different Types of Commercial Rice
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The inhibition of α-amylase enzyme by the inhibitor proteins extracts of all the three types of commercial rice, white rice (WR), brown rice (BR) and glutinous rice (GR) were investigated. Among the three types of rice, the BR has significantly the highest concentration of the inhibitor protein (0.030 ± 0.002 mg/ml) compared to glutinous rice (0.

Characterization of Enzymatic Glucose Biosensor in Buffer Solution, in Artificial Saliva, and in Potassium Ferricyanide by Linear Sweep Voltammetry
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Existing practice of glucose-level monitoring for diabetic patients involves frequent finger pricking for blood samples. This is not only constantly painful, but could make patients susceptible to infections. A non-invasive, portable, graphene-based biosensor is being developed to measure glucose levels in saliva instead of in blood, by incorporati

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Cysteine proteases in pineapple (Ananas comosus) plants are phytotherapeutical agents that demonstrate anti-edematous, anti-inflammatory, anti-thrombotic and fibrinolytic activities. Bromelain has been identified as an active component and as a major protease of A. comosus. Bromelain has gained wide acceptance and compliance as a phytotherapeutical

Developing an Islamic Framework for Medical Confidentiality Practice
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Arguably, ethical guidelines and medical laws on medical confidentiality have fallen short of extrapolating the methodology for dealing with potential ethical complexities in its practice. This drawback has made it difficult for physicians to prevent harm from occurring if it has not yet happened, remove harm if it has already taken place, or minim
