Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose of the study: To compare the ABR findings from two different electrode montages (ipsilateral and vertical montages) elicited using a level-specific (LS)-CE-Chirp® in normally-hearing subjects at multiple intensities levels. Methods: Twenty-nine normally-hearing adults (18 females, 11 male) participated. The ABR were acquired using two diff

A Comparative Study on Lipase Enzyme Immobilized on Acid and Glutaraldehyde Functionalized Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Nanomaterials are being increasingly employed as support materials for enzyme immobilization owing to their biocompatibility and large surface area. Immobilization of lipase on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) has shown significant enhancement in the enzyme stability with respect to temperature and pH variations. Functionalization of MWCNT resu

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Lycopene is a well-known carotenoid, causing red color of fresh tomatoes. The significance of lycopene as antioxidant agent and coloring in the cosmetics, and its use in pharmaceutical and food industries has expanded in the recent years. Extraction of lycopene was improved effectively under solid state fermentation process; whereby, cellulase prod

The Impact of Student’s Motives for Social Media Use and educational-Information Sharing on their Academic Performance: a Pilot Study Among Students in International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The focus of this study is to investigate the impact of students’ motives for using the social media and their academic related information sharing activities on their academic performance.

Quantifcation of Total Phenolic Compounds in Papaya Fruit Peel
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Phenolics are widely distributed in many plants and are known to play a major role in the plant and animal kingdom. Phenolics exhibit strong antioxidant properties and have been used as antitumor, anticarcinogenic, antiviral and hypotensive agents. Plant by-products contain a variety of these phenolic compounds and can therefore be used as an alter

Application of Sustainable Materials in the Hardscape Elements of Parks
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Green spaces are much needed in the urban environment for a multitude of reasons. One of them is to curb environmental problems such as flash flood, urban heat island and to increase the quality of life of the users. However, sometimes the parks that are supposed to help in improving the environment may have no significant effects or they might eve

The Role of Apologies in Resolving Medical Disputes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In the wake of medical errors and potential lawsuits, apologies made by medical practitioners to their patients have the ability to defuse prospects of litigation. Often, when things go wrong, patients want to know what actually happened, why it happened and be assured that it will not happen again. At this juncture, apologies which are ‘statemen

Coupling Thermal Mass and Water Systems as Urban Passive Design in Hot Climates
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The impact of water in buildings is studied as a combination of vertical walls and horizontal pools that creates a combined passive cooling system for public spaces in hot climates. The paper draws from traditional water-based systems principles and forms in Mughal architecture, with the aim of studying its thermal cooling impact using CFD. Due to
