Energy Compensation in Enterally Fed Children
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Limited exposure to solid food in early childhood may affect the development of appetite regulation. We used formal satiation studies to assess energy compensation in children who have been artificially fed. Subjects were 11 children, median age 4.5 years (range 1–10) who were formerly (n = 4) or currently (n = 5) mainly tube fed or supplement fe

Spirituality in the Workplace: the Role of 'taqwa' Towards the Advancement of the Contemporary Organization
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Although the concept of spirituality in the workplace has received enormous attention from contemporary researchers, very little or not sufficient research has been attempted from the religious perspective. This conceptual paper attempts to enrich the understanding of the spirituality in the workplace phenomenon from an Islamic Management perspecti

Phylogeny of Sea Cucumber (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) as Inferred from 16s Mitochondrial Rrna Gene Sequences
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study aimed to determine phylogenetic relationship between and among selected species of sea cucumbers (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) using 16S mitochondrial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene. Phylogenetic analyses of 37 partial sequences of 16S mitochondrial rRNA gene using three main methods namely neighbour joining (NJ), maximum parsimony (MP) and

Coral Reef Sea Cucumbers in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study aims to document species presence and distribution of sea cucumbers (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) in Malaysia. Several coral reef habitats in Peninsular Malaysia, West Malaysia and Sabah, East Malaysia were selected as study sites. In summary, the present data showed the-presence of 50 species of sea cucumbers from three orders and seve

This study traces the various historical contexts under which representations of North African Muslims were created from the sixteenth century until the nineteenth century in Britain. It shows that the image of Muslims that is being propagated in the media today as sexually licentious, oppressive towards women and barbaric were created from the ear

Modeling Ion Propulsion Plume Interactions with Spacecraft in Formation Flight
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents a simulation study of ion thruster plume effects on formation flying spacecraft. Two formation flight applications using micro-ion propulsion are considered: an L2-Halo orbit interferometer formation and a LEO micro-satellite formation. Worst case scenarios in both missions have been investigated. We focus our study on thruster

Takaful (Islamic Insurance) Benefit: Ownership and Distribution Issues in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper aims at investigating the ownership of the Takaful benefit and the issues of hibah in nomination. The focus is made solely on the Family takāful because this type of policy is singularly related to death. In this regard, the question is raised as whether the money paid by the takāful operator on the death of the participant (death bene

Optimizing Bioethanol Production from Sago Starch in Bioreactor for Renewable Energy
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The two-step enzymatic hydrolysis of sago starch was performed by commercially available α-amylase and β- glucoamylase and further ethanol fermentation of the obtained hydrolyzates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied. The optimized glucose concentration produced from hydrolysis was used in the fermentation process. The fermentation was carri

Fabrication of Biodegradable Composite – an Implication of Plasticizer
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper aims on the fabrication of fully biodegradable composite with the addition of plasticizer. For the fabrication of biodegradable composite, a twin screw extruder was used which provides a good blending of matrix, fiber and plasticizer. The percentage is varied from 5% to 40% for fiber and for plasticizer it is 5% to 20%. Higher percentage
