Radiation Vulcanization of Natural Rubber Latex Loaded with Carbon Nanotubes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The radiation vulcanization of natural rubber latex (NRL) has been carried out with 150 keV electrons beam with the presence of carbon nanotubes. The NRL/CNTs were prepared by using solving casting method by dispersing carbon nanotubes in a polymer solution and subsequently evaporating the solvent. The load of the carbon nanotubes in the rubber was

Clinical Features of Allergic Rhinitis and Skin Prick Test Analysis Based on the Aria Classification: a Preliminary Study in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a prevalent disease worldwide but is still underdiagnosed in many parts of Asia. We studied the clinical profiles of AR patients in our community based on the new ARIA classification and investigated the aetiological allergens using a skin prick test. Materials and Methods: In 2008, 142 newly diagnosed patien

Management of Severe Subglottic Stenosis Secondary to Trauma: Case to Case Comparison of Resection Anastomosis Versus Cartilage Augmentation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We studied two similar cases of severe subglottic stenosis secondary to trauma with different treatment modalities. One had laryngotracheal reconstruction with cartilage augmentation and the other had laryngotracheal resection anastomosis. We wish to compare the two popular choices of surgery for laryngotracheal stenosis from two cases with similar

Head and Neck Follicular Dendritic Cell Sarcoma: Disease Associations and Treatment Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Currently, of less than 50 cases of head and neck follicular dendritic cell (FDC) sarcoma reported in the literature, 5 have been found to occur in the background of Castleman disease.We report another case of head and neck FDC sarcoma with emphasise on its associated lesions and review the outcome of treatment from the existing cases in the litera

Integrated Coastal Management and Town Planning in Malaysia: Concept and Practice
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In Malaysia, research on coastal and estuarine areas is still new and fragmented between various disciplines, like coastal geomorphology, coastal engineering and marine biology, which tend to be institutionally or individually oriented. A systematic study of coastal and marine natural resources in the context of town planning (TP) is very limited.

The Effects of Construction on Environmental Resources in Peninsular Malaysia: the Perspective of Land Use Planning
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Environment forms the basis upon which all human activities such as physical, social and economic take place. Malaysia is a nation that is blessed with the beauty of nature and at the same time advanced in terms of infrastructural development. Environmental resources are vital components of the environment that include land, vegetal resource, water

Study of Beta 2-adrenergic Receptor Polymorphisms Among Hypertensives
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Aims: The Arg16Gly and the Gln27Glu polymorphisms in the gene for the beta2-adrenergic receptor (beta2AR) have been linked to the hypertensive status. The aim of the present study was to assess the association between ;22AR polymorphisms and hypertension. Methods: In case control study, 100 unrelated patients (50 hypertensive and 50 matched control

non-Active Surgical Implants - Joint Replacement Implants - Specifice Requirements for knee-Joint Replacement Implants (Iso 21536:2007, Idt)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

ISO 21536:2007 provides specific requirements for knee joint replacement implants. With regard to safety, this International Standard specifies requirements for intended performance, design attributes, materials, design evaluation, manufacture, sterilization, packaging, information supplied by the manufacturer and methods of test.

The Relationship Between Construction and Environment : the Perspectives of Town Planning System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Environment forms the basis upon which all human activities such as physical, social and economy take place. Malaysia is a nation that is blessed with the beauty of nature and at the same time advanced in terms of infrastructural development. Environmental resources are vital components of the environment that include land, vegetal resource, water

Multiobjective Data Envelopment Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is popularly used to evaluate relative efficiency among public or private firms. Most DEA models are established by individually maximizing each firm’s efficiency according to its advantageous expectation by a ratio. Some scholars have pointed out the interesting relationship between the multiobjective linear progr
