Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A cross-sectional study was conducted to predict the outcome in patients with subdural empyema, using initial and post-treatment CT scan brain parameters. Data collection was done on those children who were diagnosed to have subdural empyema by CT scan of the brain with contrast, who underwent burrhole evacuation, from February 2000 until April 200

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between future economic stability (FES), family influence (FI) and students’ motivation for higher education (MFHE) based on the perceptions of undergraduate students in IIUM. The questionnaire used was self-developed and piloted with 263 undergraduate students, who were sampled purposely.

Characterization of a 2,2-dichloropropionic Acid (2,2-dcp) Degrading Alkalotorelant Bacillus Megaterium Strain Bhs1 Isolated from Blue Lake in Turkey
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An acid, 2,2-dichloropropionic acid (2,2-DCP) is an active ingredient in herbicide (Dalapon®). Using 2,2-DCP as a model substrate, an alkalotolerant bacterium was successfully isolated from the Blue Lake, Turkey. This bacterium is a potential bioremediation agent of recalcitrant xenobiotic halogenated compounds. This study aimed to prove the effic

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Historically, the law of rape was concerned particularly with the theft of virginity, reflecting a preoccupation with the protection of virgins from rape, abduction and forced marriage. And basically, before an accused can be convicted of any serious offence, it must be proved that he performed some act that is prohibited by the law and that he did

The Relevancy and Admissibility of Evidence Obtained Through Unlawful Means: a Comparative Legal Appraisal
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The rules relating to the admissibility or inadmissibility of illegally or improperly obtained evidence is a matter of court's discretion. The question of whether this kind of evidence ought to be rejected because it was obtained illegally, that is, by a crime, a tort or a breach of official police regulations, involves a difficult choice betwe

Context: Flaxseed constituents provide to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and wound healing benefits. Aims: To systematically review the experimental evidence on the wound healing ability of flaxseed extracts and formulations. Methods: Comprehensive searches in six databases (Scopus, Science Direct, Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scho

Genomic Analysis of a Functional haloacid-Degrading Gene of Bacillus Megaterium Strain Bhs1 Isolated from Blue Lake (Mavi Gölü, Turkey)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: Bacillus megaterium strain BHS1, isolated from an alkaline water sample taken from Mavi Gölü (Blue Lake, Turkey), can grow on minimal medium containing 2,2-dichloropropionic acid. We characterized this bacterium at the genomic level. Methods: The HiSeq platform was used to carry out genome sequencing, de novo assembly, and scaffolding wi

Modeling of Piezoelectric Laminated Composite Plate Using Finite Element Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A finite element model for shape control analysis of piezoelectric laminated composite plate is presented in this paper. Elastic field and electric field of the piezoelectric laminated composite plate has been coupled through the linear piezoelectric constitutive equations. Piezoelectric actuators and sensors are modeled as additional layers either
