Kenaf as Natural Resource for Lactic Acid Production
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Kenaf biomass indicates promising choices to produce lactic acid via fermentation by Rhizopus oryzae. The pre- treatment process was done on kenaf biomass with dilute sulphuric acid (H2SO4) to hydrolyze the cellulose content in it. The step was then continued with the fermentation process in shake flask which was at 25 oC at 150 rpm, 25 oC at 200 r

The pharmacognostical approaches used include macroscopical and microscopical examination of the herbs. A method combining thin layer chromatography (TLC) analysis and bioautographic assay

Molecular Cloning and Production of Recombinant Phytase from Bacillus Subtilis Asuia243 in Pichia Pastoris
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Phytase gene obtained from Bacillus subtilis ASUIA243 was cloned into a medium vector and transformed into E. coli. Restriction enzyme digestion was conducted to get blunt-ended phytase gene and ligated into the Pichia expression vector, pPICZαA. The recombinant vector, pPICZαA-243HPp was then linearized with PmeI and transformed into P. pastoris

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Common Donax (Donax grandis) is in a family of marantaceae and widely distributed in South East Asia region. Phytochemical constituents in different parts of the plant (leaves, fruits, stems and roots) were extracted by soxhlet extractions using hexane,dichloromethane, methanol and water. Methanolic extract showed the highest yield of crude extract

Investigation of Microholes Produced by Focused Ion Beam Micromachining
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper discusses the microfabrication of microholes using focused ion beam and investigation of geometrical integrity of microholes. Different combination of aperture size, probe current, acceleration voltage was applied for micromachining and optimized based on taper angle. Microholes with 3.0 μm of diameter were milled according to the optim
