Heavy Metal Accumulation in Commercially Important Fishes of South West Malaysian Coast
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Now-a-days, bioaccumulation of toxic metals in aquatic animals causes serious threats to the human health when they are consumed. Thus the detection of toxic elemental concentration in aquatic flora and fauna has attracted various researches to determine their toxic levels in organism’s edible parts. Upon considering this issue, the accumulation

Spatial Concentrations of Lead and Copper in Bottom Sediments of Langkawi Coastal Area, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Surface sediment samples were collected from 5 different zones of the Langkawi coastal waters, Malaysia to determine the concentration of Lead (Pb) and Copper (Cu) by using the sensitive Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS). The concentration of heavy metals was compared with the world average concentration of shale values. It was

Molecular Phylogeny of Horseshoe Crab
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An effort to assess the utility of 650 bp Cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (DNA barcode) gene in delineating the members horseshoe crabs (Family: xiphosura) with closely related sister taxa was made. A total of 33 sequences were extracted from National Center for Biotechnological Information (NCBI) which include horseshoe crabs (Class: Merostomata),

Bioaccumulation of Heavy Metals in Horseshoe Crabs (Tachypleus Gigas) from Pekan, Pahang, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An attempt was made to determine the various heavy metal accumulative concentrations in different body parts of horseshoe crab [Tachypleus gigas (Muller, 1785)]. Heavy metal accumulation levels were determined using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Highest mean concentration (μg g-1 wet weight) of iron (Fe), Zinc (Zn), Copper

Determination of Estuarine Sedimentation Rates Using 230thexcess and 230thexcess/232th Ratio Methods in the Paka Estuary, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The vertical profiles of 230Thexcess and 230Thexcess/232Th in a sediment core have been used to determine the sedimentation rates of Terengganu River estuary, Malaysia. Applying the 230Thexcess and 230Thexcess/232Th method, U and Th isotopic involved complete dissolution of the samples, followed by separation on anion exchange, average sedimentatio

length-Weight Relationships of Seven Catfish Species in Peninsular Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The study described the Length-Weight Relationship (LWR) of commercially important and indigenous freshwater catfishes from Peninsular Malaysia. Seven species of freshwater catfishes from three families (Bagriidae, Clariidae and Pangasidae) were collected from various rivers in Peninsular Malaysia. Allometric coefficient, b in LWR varied between 2.

Strategies for Enhancing the Understanding of Islam in the Media
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

During the last two decades, the world witnessed a meteoric rise in the role played by the media in influencing human perceptions of other people, places, and things. This tremendous influence has had both beneficial and detrimental consequences for individuals and communities across the globe. Muslims have experienced firsthand the harmful impact

Comprehensive Extraction Method Integrated with Nmr Metabolomics : a New Bioactivity Screening Method for Plants, Adenosine A1 Receptor Binding Compounds in Orthosiphon Stamineus Benth
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A large number of plant metabolites has provided as an incomparable chemical source for drug development. However, the wide range of the polarity of metabolites has been a big obstacle for full use of the chemical diversity. The initial step conventional extraction method by a single solvent does not make use of all the metabolites contained in pla

مناهج مقترحة لتعليم التعبيرات الاصطلاحية للناطقين بغير العربية
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The paper discusses about three perceptions on the teaching methods of idioms to the non-native Arabic speakers. The problem statement is to recognize the suitable educational and linguistic frameworks to teach this particular topic. The main hypothesis is that teaching idioms cannot be neglected by the syllabus designers for teaching Arabic as a s

physico-Chemical Characteristics and Dissolved Trace Metals in the Pahang River Estuary, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Water samples from Pahang River estuary were analysed for Cu, Pb, Zn and Cd at 63 stations during the monson and non-monsoon seasons. Concentrations ranges of dissolved metals in the Chukai estuary were relatively low compared with other estuaries and are not significantly influenced by seasonal changes. Concentration of Cu in both monsoons ranged
