Preparation of Activated Carbon by Chemical Activation and its in Vitro Adsorption Efficacy Tests for Paraquat
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The effects of different activation temperature on the pore size and surface morphology of activated carbon produced by H3PO4 (30%) chemical activation were studied in this paper. Well developed pore size and highest surface area observed on activated carbon at 6000C were determined by Scanning Electron Microscope and Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (B

A face can be sketch by freehand based on the evidence of an eyewitness description which is necessary for the Detectives to tract the looks of the offender. This process is slow; moreover there are some factors which cannot be assumed by the artist, including weight, hair color and length, and eye color. However, if this process is conducted corre

Preparation, Characterization and Reduction of Burst Release of Bsa from Biodegradable Plga Microspheres
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

BSA loaded hydroxyl terminated-PLGA and acid-terminated-PLGA microspheres have been prepared by a conventional water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) and a modified water-in-oil-in-oil-in-water (w/o/o/w) emulsion solvent evaporation method. In modified w/o/o/w emulsion technique, 100 µl of BSA solution (30 mg/ml) in 1% aqueous PVA (w/v) was emulsified with

Persuasion is part and parcel of human interaction. The human persuaders in society have been always exit, masters of rhetoric skilled of changing our minds, or at least our behaviors. Leaders, mothers, salesmen, and teachers are clear examples of persuaders. Persuaders often turn to technology and digital media to amplify their persuasive ends. Be

Development and Validation of Gas chromatography-Mass Spectrometric Method for the Determination of Epoxidized Soybean Oil in Foods Stored in Glass Jars with Metal Lids.
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A method has been developed for the determination of epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) in oily foods stored in glass jars with metal lids using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). ESBO and its internal standard (cis,cis-11,12;14,15- diepoxyeicosanoate) were isolated from the matrix by transesterification process. The developed method showed g

The Nature and Dynamics of Human Rights Violation in Bangladesh: an Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human rights are considered to be necessary for freedom, democratic governance and of course the maintenance of a reasonable quality of life in a particular state or society. However, Muslim states which are only several decades old showed generally a dismal performance in upholding and maintain human rights although being signatories to the United

Design of Central Composite of Zinc Removal from Model Water Using Chitosan Biopolymer
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This research project intended to study the performance of chitosan as flocculating agent for removal heavy metal (zinc) from artificial water. Chitosan was used due to its special characteristics such as non-toxic, hydrophilic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and anti-bacterial, biopolymer and very good adsorption of heavy metal which has led to a v
