Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) for up to six months is internationally recommended due to its benefits for both maternal and infant health. However, the rate of EBF in Malaysia is still below the desirable levels. This study examined the prevalence of EBF and assessed the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP), and determinants of breastfeeding amo

Isolation of Microfibrillated Cellulose (Mfc) via Fungal Cellulases Hydrolysis Combined with Ultrasonication
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Celluloses, the most abundant biopolymers which exist in plant sources have become potential materials in many applications due to theirs fascinating structure and properties. In plant cell walls, they are embedded in matrix substances such as hemicellulose and lignin. Removal of matrix substances is required before fibrillating the cellulose fibre

Introduction: SNAP-IV is one of the behaviour rating scales based on teacher or parent perception to screen patients with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms. The SNAP-IV consists of 26 items that assesses the ADHD core symptoms of hyperactivity-impulsivity and inattention, together with symptoms of oppositional defiant disorde

Development of Bionanocomposite Reinforced with Sugarcane Bagasse Nanocellulose and Incorporated with Natural Antimicrobial Agent for Food Packaging Applications
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study aims to develop the nanocomposite film with antimicrobial property towards alternative of current biodegradable plastics potential in food packaging. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is chosen because it is the only synthetic polymer that is biodegradable and possess excellent film forming properties. This study used solution casting method to pr

Environmental Management Accounting and Other Environmental/ Sustainability Related Practices: an Exploratory Case Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Based on a single case study conducted in a Malaysian chemical company (denoted as Company X), the study explores whether environmental/sustainability practices, which include Environmental Management Accounting (EMA), are implemented in the case company. Data gathered from the review of documentations and in-depth interviews with 12 personnel comp

Towards Achieving Nanofinish on Silicon (Si) Wafer by μ-wire electro-Discharge Machining
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study investigates the use of nanopowder-mixed dielectric oil and temporary metallic coating on highly doped Si sample to achieve nanometric surface roughness using μ-WEDM operation. To achieve this, two different nanopowders were used in dielectric medium with two different temporary metallic coating in the workpiece. This is with Al and C w

Islamic Brand Personality and Customer Satisfaction: a Conceptual Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Brand personality plays an important role in affecting customer satisfaction. Muslim population is estimated to reach 30 percent of world’s population and it is considered as the fastest religion spreading in the world. To tap into this market, it is important to explore various aspects of business, in general, and marketing, in particular, from

Antibiotic Stewardship in Community Pharmacies a Scoping Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The increase in antibiotic resistance has frequently been linked to unrestrained antibiotic dispensing. This review was conducted to mainly assess the perception and attitudes of community pharmacists towards antibiotic dispensing. This scoping review was performed between June 2016 and September 2016 to identify published studies related to the pe

Production and Stability of myco-Flocculants from Lentinus Squarrosulus Rwf5 and Ssimplicillium Obclavatum Rwf6 for Reduction of Water Turbidity
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The production and stability of two novel myco-flocculants produced by river water fungus (RWF) were investigated. Screening tests were conducted to find suitable nutrients, pH, nutrient concentration, inoculum dose, and stability for two myco-flocculants L. squarrosulus (RWF5) and S. obclavatum (RWF6). The strains showed good flocculating activity

Screening of Parameters for solid-State Fermentation of Aspergillus Niger Producing Cellulose Using Sugarcane Bagasse as Substrate
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Microﬁbrillated cellulose (MFC) is a promising biomaterial in bionanocomposites production because of its renewable and eco-friendly properties. Conventional methods to produce MFC such as acid hydrolysis and mechanical treatment posed significant drawbacks; large amount of acid is required and increased defibrillation of alpha cellulose, respect
