Nanosponge as a Novel Delivery Modulator of Retinoic Acid
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Retinoic acid is a derivative of vitamin A known for its use in the management of acne. The major limitations of retinoic acid application are its low solubility and instability in water, light, and heat. It also causes irritating side effects on the skin when used topically. In the current work, we demonstrated the entrapment of retinoic acid into

Investigation of Enhanced electrocoagulation-Membrane Process for Water Reclamation from Palm Oil Mill Effluents
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The process of electrocoagulation (EC) enhanced with adsorbent addition, as a pre-treatment for ultrafiltration membrane, is widely unexplored in oil palm-based wastewater treatment. Utilizing predetermined EC operational parameters and a defined activated carbon (AC) dosage for biotreated palm oil mill effluents (BPOME), membrane fouling was studi

Optimization of Composite Fuselage Frame Layup for Energy Absorption Under Crash Loading
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Considerable research has been carried out on aircraft fuselage design, with a particular focus on frames due to their role in energy absorption during crash impacts.
