Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Family Environment Scale (FES) was developed by Moos1, has ten subscales and was categorized into three dimensions. Objective: The objective of this study was to develop factor structure for the Malay-translated version of the FES subscales. Methodology: The study used Malay translated version of FES by Khairani et. al2. This study wa

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

There has been recent interest regarding the role of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on soft and hard tissue healing. Inactivated platelets contain various growth hormones that involve in tissue healing such as platelet-derived growth hormone (PDGF), vascular ndothelial growth hormone (VEGF), transforming growth factor-ß (TGF-ß), epidermal

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study aimed to compare bone formation in posterolateral lumbar fusion after implantation with hydroxyapatite (HA) granules alone, HA granules mixed with autologous platelet rich plasma (HA-PRP) and autograft. Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were used. The rabbits were randomized into two groups of twelve rabbits each based on the graft m

Vkorc1 Haplotypes in Patients Treated with Warfarin
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Warfarin has very narrow therapeutic windows and large individual variability. Genetic variants encoding VKORC1 gene has resulted in altered sensitivity to warfarin or warfarin resistance. Nine haplotypes (H1-H9) of VKORC1 had been categorized with reference to 10 SNPs (Gen Bank accession number AY587020). Objective: To determine the ha

Metabolic Engineering of Cofactor F420 Production in Mycobacterium Smegmatis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Cofactor F420 is a unique electron carrier in a number of microorganisms including Archaea and Mycobacteria. It has been shown that F420 has a direct and important role in archaeal energy metabolism whereas the role of F420 in mycobacterial metabolism has only begun to be uncovered in the last few years. It has been suggested that cofactor F420 has

Development and Optimization of high-Hertz Stress Contact to Reduce Future Contact Material Cost
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Reducing a total contact material cost of a connector, a high-Hertz stress with low normal force (LNF) contact will be a key technology in the future. Only an R5m tip with 0.1N force contact provides an excellent electrical performance which is much sharper than conventional connectors. 0.30 million cycles durability test was passed and the cont
