Kinetics of microwave-Assisted Extraction of Virgin Coconut Oil from Solid Coconut Waste
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Solid coconut waste (SCW) is a by-product of coconut milk production which still contains virgin coconut oil (VCO). This waste usually is thrown away or left in fields. This study aims to optimize the effects of Microwave power (80–400 W), irradiation time (1–4 minutes), and solvent to feed ratio (SF) (10–30 ml/g) on the extraction of VCO fro

Tualang Honey Attenuates Glutathione Depletion in the Rat Hippocampus Following Kainic Acid Administration
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Excitotoxicity mediated neurodegeneration by kainic acid (KA) was shown to cause oxidative stress in rats’ brains. Tualang honey (TH), a potential natural medicinal agent, was reported to have many therapeutic properties; however, its protection against neurodegenerative disorders was limited. This study aimed to investigate the protective effect

The activities of bioprospecting are not new and have been well established in various industries ranging from pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing to biomining and nanotechnology. Bioprospecting is the discovery of biodiversity for new biological resources of

The Ameliorative Effects of Tualang Honey Mediated Silver Nanoparticles on Hippocampal Damages Following Kainic Acid Administration in Male Rats
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Kainic acid (KA) was shown to be associated in the mechanism of excitotoxicity-induced neurodegeneration in the brain. Tualang honey (TH) was reported to have protection against neurodegeneration but no study has explored on its silver nanoparticles (THSN). Therefore, present study aimed to investigate the effects of THSN on glutathione status and
