Herbs as Antimicrobial Remedies and the Scientific Evidences.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Herbs has long been traditionally proved as effective remedies in preventing and treating various microbial infectious diseases, such as ringworm, Athlete's foot, nail infections, scalp infections, vaginal and oral infections. The successful experience of using herbs as antimicrobial agents has been shared throughout generations and has guided

Exploring Teachers' Experience with Student Character Development: a Comparative Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The purpose of this qualitative research is to explore teachers’ perceptions in inculcating moral values to develop student character, to identify different challenges faced by teachers and to discover how teachers overcome their challenges in both Islamic as well as conventional schools. Purposive sampling and semi-structured interviews were use

Instagram and Political Storytelling Among Malaysian Politicians During the 14th General Election
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The popularity of Instagram as a political tool has world leaders adopting it as an integral part of their communications. Over the recent years, governments and world leaders have flocked to the mobile photo and video sharing social network to share their official as well as personal pictures with a worldwide audience. Malaysian politicians are ju

Optimisation of Activated Carbon Production from Baobab Fruit Shells by Chemical Activation with Koh for the Removal of Phenol
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Activated carbons (ACs) were produced from baobab fruit shell (BFS) by varying the operating parameters of activation temperatures, activation times, and impregnation ratios using response surface methodology (RSM). Adsorption tests on an aqueous solution of phenol were used to determine the optimum conditions for BF-ACs produced and central compos

Biomechanical Analysis of Bone Graft Treated with Pasteurization or Cryotherapy Using Liquid Nitrogen: a Study Using Sheep Bone Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Osteosarcoma is a common primary malignancy of the bone. Osteosarcoma prognosis improves tremendously when chemotherapy is given in adjunct to surgical intervention. Limb reconstruction with sterilized autologous bone graft stabilized by orthopaedics implants has become a choice of treatment, but the biomechanical property of the bone treated with

Concrete Characteristics Modelling for Minimal Cost and Optimum Performance of Abuja Housing Infrastructures
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Abuja has experienced phenomenal infrastructural growth in the last two decades and concrete is at the heart of it. The cost of concrete has increased over the years due to the increased costs of its constituents like aggregates and cement. Many housing projects have slowed down due to the skyrocketing costs. A scientific approach in reducing concr

Statistical Optimization of Adsorption Processes for the Removal of Phenol by AC Derived from Baobab Fruit Shell
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Baobab fruit shell (BFS) biomass was used as an alternative precursor for producing high surface area and microporous baobab fruit shell activated carbon (BFS-AC) by chemical activation using KOH. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was performed for the characterization of baobab fruit shell activated carbon. The adsorption property of BFS-AC for t

Infant with Multifocal Osteomyelitis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

INTRODUCTION: Multifocal osteomyelitis is rare but potentially cause morbidity and mortality. Higher risk in infants and older children with risk. Incidence reported 20-50% in all neonates with osteomyelitis. REPORT: 3-month-old boy, born premature at 35 weeks, had reduced left upper limb movement for 1 week without history of trauma. 2 weeks prior

Neglected Ddh in Older Children: a Report of Two Cases
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

INTRODUCTION: Multiple studies reported on different types of approaches and acetabuloplasty for management of neglected developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) in older children. REPORT: Here, we report 2 cases of sisters aged 9 and 10-year-old presented with painless limp since childhood. They walked with short limb gait with shortening of 5 and

Mechanical and Biodegradation Properties of Fresh and Rotten Jicama Starches Based Bioplastics
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Recently, starch-based bioplastics have been proposed to curb the problem caused by conventional plastics. Yet, current bioplastics are made from food sources which cause competition with food industries. Hence, we have produced bioplastics using rotten starch-based material to tackle this problem. In this study, a comprehensive investigation has b
