The Effectiveness of Pure Stichopus Horrens Extract Toothpaste in Reducing plaque-Induced Gingivitis Following Orthodontic Bonding : a triple-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Gingivitis is one of the commonest problems faced by patients with fixed appliances (FA) as there is close relation between the appliances to gingival sulcus. Stichopus horrens (SH) is a sea cu- cumber from the Indo-Pacific that has medical healing properties which have been traditionally used. Objective: To assess the effects of toot

Epidemiological Trend of Leprosy in the post-Elimination Era at a Referral Centre in Northern Nigeria
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Nigeria achieved the leprosy elimination target in the year 2000. Data demonstrating the trend of leprosy in Nigeria during the post-elimination era is limited. This study evaluates the epidemiological trend of leprosy at a referral hospital in Nigeria using leprosy control indicators. A 15-year retrospective study involving new leprosy patients re

The Effect of 6-prism base-Out at 6-metre Fixation on Vergence and Accommodation Systems
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Prisms is used for binocularity diagnosis and vision therapy in optometry particularly in treating symptomatic vision anomalies such as divergence excess, convergence insufficiency, nystagmus and concomitant as well as incomitant strabismus. This utilization of base-out prism in the alteration of vergence and accommodation system is n

From Damansara to Gombak: Experience of Dar al-Hikmah Library Moving a Law Library
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper is written to illustrate the experience of Dar al-Hikmah library relocating a law library to a law faculty’s resource centre. The law library in this article refers to Mohamed Ismail & Co. library, Damansara, Kuala Lumpur, while the law faculty’s resource centre in this article refers to Razali Nawawi Resource Centre (RNRC), Ahma

Nicotine and e-Cigarettes Addiction
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Tobacco use claims more than 8 million lives annually, with most tobacco-related deaths occurring in low and middle-income countries. Second-hand tobacco smoke contributes to an additional 1.2 million deaths annually due to heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. Research appears to show a lack of scientific evidence about the value of e-cigaret

Islamic and Modern Science Perspectives Issues of Animal Plasma as a Source of Food Additives in Food Products
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Disposal of animal blood from slaughterhouses leads to high risk of water and land resources problem. Due of this concern, food scientists separated the plasma component and transformed into food additives that comprised with tremendous functional properties such as gelling agent, replacing fat and eggs function, emulsifier, binder agent and also h

Monopsony, Powerful Buyers and Small Sellers: Analysis of Malaysian Competition Law and Lessons Learnt from Indonesia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Powerful buyers have become a problem stifling the market presence of micro, small and medium businesses. Their power in both upstream and downstream markets may allow them to manipulate prices or output. The authors look at whether competition law can address such problem particularly in Malaysia. They use monopsony as the theoretical framework an

The Relationship Between Halal Food Management System Critical Constructs Implementation, Operational Performance and Product Quality
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Given the limited studies on Halal food management system, this study seeks to assess the relationship between the implementation of Halal food management system critical constructs, operational performance and product quality. A total of 163 samples collected from Halal certified SMEs manufacturers in Malaysia were used for data analysis. Data wer

Tunable S+/s Band q-Switched thulium-Doped Fluoride Fiber Laser Using Tungsten Ditelluride (Wte2)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A tunable, passively Q-switched thulium-doped fluoride fiber laser (TDFFL) using a tungsten ditelluride (WTe2) thin film based saturable absorber (SA) was proposed and its operational efficacy demonstrated. At a maximum pump power of 250 mW, a Q-switched output at 1494 nm with a 3-dB bandwidth of 3 nm was obtained. The repetition rate was measured

all-Fiberized mode-Locked Laser at 1.95 μm Using Copper Chalcogenide Cu2te-Based Evanescent Field
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

For the first time, a copper telluride (Cu2Te) based saturable absorber (SA) was demonstrated for mode-locking in a thulium-doped fiber laser. Layers of Cu2Te were deposited onto a side polished fiber (SPF) using the optical deposition technique, forming an all-fiber SA device. The nonlinear optical properties of the SA device were investigated bas
