Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this study, the reduction of free fatty acid (FFA) in low grade palm oil (LGPO) was conducted at various sonication times, ranging from 30 to 300 min. Screening of various acids was reported and selected acid was considered for further study. The results found that strong acids such as sulfuric acid to be superior to other acids. The FFA content

Effect of Acute Stevia Consumption on Blood Glucose Response in Healthy Malay Young Adults (Kesan Pengambilan Stevia Akut Ke Atas Tindak Balas Glukosa Darah Dalam Kalangan Orang Melayu Dewasa Yang Sihat)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Previously, researchers had initiated investigation to find an alternative drug that can treat diabetes mellitus without dragging patients into more complicated health problems. After many studies, they found a new and high potential plant-based drug named stevia that is able to reduce diabetic patients’ blood glucose. This study aimed to determi

Pharmaceutical is a highly regulated industry based on its nature that involves human life. Every decision must be scientifically sound from the early stage in order to provide security and safety to the patient. Only 1 from 4000 synthesized drugs reach the market which cost about $800-900 million dollar within 8-12 years from discovery to market.

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of operating parameter of a Buchi B290 mini spray dryer towards specific activity of recBromelain. Using Response Surface Methodology (RSM), face centred central composite design (FCCCD) was tabulated for optimization. Optimization process was conducted by varying the inlet air temperature (

Studies on Flow from Converging Nozzle and the Effect of Nozzle Pressure Ratio for Area Ratio of 6.25
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Micro jets are used in the present experimental study as an active control. Flow from converging nozzle to suddenly expanded circular duct of larger cross-sectional area than that of nozzle exit area were studied experimentally, focusing attention on the base pressure and the flow development in the duct. Mach number and nozzle pressure ratio are c

Primary Fixation of Ao type-C Fracture of the Distal Radius with Volar Locking Plates. a cross-Sectional Study of Patient Rated Outcomes at Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: This is a cross-sectional study of 37 patients with AO type C (complete intra-articular) fractures of the distal radius, evaluating the functional, anatomical, and patient rated outcomes one year after primary fixation with a volar locking plate. Methods: Functional outcomes were assessed based on the grip strength, and the range of m

Poly(Lactic Acid) Based Flexible Films
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer which has good mechanical properties, however, its brittleness limits its usage especially in packaging materials. Therefore, in this work, PLA based polyurethane films were prepared by synthesizing with different types of isocyanates; methylene diisocyanate (MDI) and hexamethylene diisocyanates (H

Computed Tomography (Ct) of Blunt Abdominal Trauma: the Frequency of Incidental Findings, How it Was Documented in Radiology Report and the Implication of These Findings to Acute Trauma Care
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The wide use of computed tomography (CT) scanning for patients with blunt abdominal trauma can reveal incidental findings that vary in their importance. We evaluated these findings, how it was reported by radiologists and its implication on the trauma care. In 30 out of 154 patients, 32 incidental findings were discovered (19.5%). Out of these 32 f

Integration of the Qur’anic Worldview with the Curricula of the Natural Sciences: Answering the Long Call for (Islamic) Secondary Schools
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The question of integration in the education of the ummah has been a top agenda among Islamic intellectuals and activists since the post-colonial period whose secular-humanism and atheistic-modernism left Muslims with the legacy of a dichotomous education. Many contemporary Islamic educational institutions in the Muslim world have established since

Muscle Creatine Kinase (m-Ck), Aldolase a and Voltage Dependent Anion Channel 2 (Vdac2) as Potential Biomarkers for Identification of Electrically Stimulated Chicken Muscle

Water bath stunning in commercial slaughter houses is a common practice and economical. However, the conditions applied for the stunning process may vary from one slaughterhouse to another and has opened up doors for food adulteration to take place. In this study, proteomics approaches have been used to study the effect of different current and vol
