Lack of Association Between the Mdm2 Promoter Polymorphism Snp309 and Clinical Outcome in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukimia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The 309T>G polymorphism in the promoter region of the MDM2 gene, known as SNP309, has recently been suggested as an unfavorable prognostic marker in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) although this has been questioned. To investigate this further, we analyzed the MDM2 SNP309 genotypes in 418 CLL patients and correlated the results with establis

Driver Behavior Analysis Through Speech Emotion Understanding
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Driver behavior is indeed one of the major factors contributing to high number of motor vehicle accidents. Due to the fact that human behavior is always influenced by emotion and emotion can be detected through speech, we attempt to find correlation between driver behavior state and speech emotion to analyze driver behavior. This understanding is i

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents the visual composition and significant attributes of arabesque designs applied in the carved components of Kelantan and Terengganu houses which are located in the northeastern region of Peninsular Malaysia. This study employed three methods of investigation: (1) analytical review on twelve sets of reports and measured drawings o

Systematics of a Sea Cucumbers of the Genus Holothuria (Aspidochirotida: Holothuroidea)and Phylogeography in H. Ieucospilota Based on the cytochrome-B Gene
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We have incorporated a morphological approach using ossicles of sea cucumber (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) and partial sequences of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene and cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene in this study as addition to partial cytochrome b (cyt b) mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) gene sequences for species identification. Beside Holothuria spec

Fabrication and Characterization of Su8 Polymeric Microring Resonators for Biosensors
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, SU8 polymer was used to fabricate a waveguide and microring resonator for optical biosensing applications in liquid mediums. Microring resonators offer the advantage of reducing the device size by orders of magnitude without scarifying the interaction length. The strength of the interaction can be measured by their resonance waveleng
