Bioassay Guide Isolation of Antibacterial Compounds from Andrographis Paniculata
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Problem statement: Chronic disease-causing bacteria of medical importance have developed resistance to antibiotics, hence, necessitating distinct and constant need for safe and efficient therapeutic agents. Plants are considered potent candidate for this aim. A way out of reducing antibiotic resistance and adverse effects on host is the employment

Towards a Malay Derivational Lexicon: Learning Affixes Using Expectation Maximization
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We propose an unsupervised training method to guide the learning of Malay derivational morphology from a set of morphological segmentations produced by a na¨ıve morphological analyzer. Using a morphology-based language model, we first estimate the probability of a given segmentation. We train the model with EM to find the segmentation that maximi

Mechanochemical Synthesis of Nanosized Hydroxyyapatite Powder and its Conversion to Dense Bodies
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this work, nanosized hydroxyapatite (HA) powder was synthesized via mechanochemical method by a dry mixture of calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2 and di-ammonium hydrogen phosphate (NH4)2HPO4 powders. The effect of mechanochemical process on powder properties was investigated. Three rotation speeds of 170 rpm, 270 rpm and 370 rpm were chose with 15 hours

Recent Nanofabrication of Silicon Dioxide on Silicon Wafer Using Afm Operated at Low Temperature
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Field-induced oxidation has become a promising process that is capable of directly producing high-resolution surface oxide patterns on variety materials. This report initiated the idea of the possibility of a controlled nanofabrication of SiO2 on silicon wafer by utilizing a frozen humid air film. A low temperature (-70oC) operation of an atomic fo

Developing and Testing of Collagen Coated polylactic-Glycolic Acid (Plga)neural Conduit
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background Autologous nerve grafts to bridge nerve gaps poses various drawbacks. Nerve tissue engineering to promote nerve regeneration using artificial neural conduits has emerged as a promising alternative. Objective We aim to develop an artificial nerve conduit using collagen-coated polylactic-glycolic acid (PLGA), and analyse the biomechanical

Sime Darby Goes to Liberia.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This case study discusses the issues arising from Sime Darby Corporation being given a concession agreement to develop 220,000 hectares of land with palm and rubber plantations in Liberia for a period of 63 years. Sime Darby Bhd is a Malaysian multinational company with diverse interests. Its main focus is plantations with its major crops being oil

Bovine Colostrum and Cheese Effect on Resistance of Enamel from Acid Attack Seen from Neutralization Cariogenicity Saliva and Noncariogenic Plaque Formation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objective: To determine neutralization pH of saliva and plaque after chewing cheese and gargling with bovine colostrum. Materials and method:Quasi eksperimental research pre and post test design. Accidental sampling done with the inclusion criteria is not allergic to milk and its products, has a white spot on caries prone areas, willing and able to

Banks Total Factor Productivity Change in a Developing Economy: Does Ownership and Origins Matter?
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper employs the Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) method to analyze the productivity of the Malaysian banking sector during the period 1995–2004. The empirical findings indicate that the Malaysian banking sector has exhibited productivity regress due to technological regress rather than efficiency decline. We find that the foreign banks h

Prophet Muhammad’s Observations and Guidance on the Construction of Buildings
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Islamic architecture is an architecture whose functions and, to a lesser extent, form, are inspired primarily by Islam. Islamic architecture is a framework for the implementation of Islam. It facilitates, fosters and stimulates Muslims’ ‘ibadah (worship) activities, which, in turn, account for every moment of their earthly lives. Central to Isl
