Business Issues and Business Prospects of Immigrant Entrepreneurs in New Zealand: an Empirical Analysis of Structural Equation Modelling (Sem)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Immigrant entrepreneurs are widely perceived as being highly sought after for innovation and economic growth. This view is commonly shared by many developed countries where immigration policies favourably reflect special visas and entry programmes to attract immigrant entrepreneurs. It is also widely acknowledged that business ownership is not only

Banding for Access Related Ischaemia: Our Experience in Kuantan, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

We reviewed our result of banding procedures for steal syndrome identied from theatre lists and cross referenced with the theatre log book. We performed 8 banding procedures in 8 patients, between June 2012 and April 2014. All presented with grade II–III steal syndrome. Complete symptoms resolution and salvage access occurred in all cases except

Tissue Engineering of Articular Cartilage: from Bench to bed-Side
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Degeneration or defect of articular cartilage is a major predicament and if it is left untreated, it may lead to progressive damage and disability affecting every one disregard of their age. Although nonsurgical management of articular cartilage injury has remained largely the same over many years, surgical treatment keeps on evolving. Restorative

Bioethical Issues of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine: a Preliminary Review from Islamic Perspective
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Modern advances in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, genetics, biomedical engineering and material sciences, have contributed to the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). Although TERM is still in its initial phases, significant breakthrough in this cross- disciplinary area has clearly marked the way for the es

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper discusses the notion of graduate competencies; issues around the competencies of graduates. It also discusses the Changing Workplace vis a vis expected graduate competencies/ employability. It also outlines the way forward in setting the roles of workforce development Institutions, including higher education institutions.10/20/2020 IPRC2

The Prophylactic Effect of Nigella Sativa Against Cyclophosphamide in the Ovarian Follicles of Matured Adult Mice: a Preliminary Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study aims to assess follicle preservation in mature female mice with the provision of Nigella Sativa oil against effects of cyclophosphamide which can cause ovarian follicular loss. Forty-eight ICR mice aged 18 weeks were divided into 3 groups: group I = control, group II = cyclophosphamide-alone (50mg/kg) for 5, 10, 15 and 20 days; and group

Impact of Thymoquinone Supplementation on Immobilisation stress-Induced Changes in Reproductive Characteristics of Male Mice
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The aim of the current study was to investigate changes in the reproductive parameters during stress and the impact of thymoquinone during the period. The effects of stress were measured through immobilisation stress on mice. Group I was administered normal saline daily via intraperitoneal injection while Groups II and III were subjected to 2 and 6

Cell Proliferation Assay and Sulphated Glycosaminoglycan Production in Poly(lactic-Co-glycolic Acid)-based Scaffolds Seeded with Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cartilage Tissue Engineering
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Articular cartilage tissue is known to have poor capability of self-repair. Therefore, tissue engineering has significantly emerged as an alternative solution for articular cartilage restoration. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and fibrin have been widely used as biocompatible scaffolds materials to regenerate tissue. In this study, bone marro

Exploring Three Dimensional Culture System for Cartilage Tissue Engineering Application: a Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Articular cartilage is a unique tissue with limited self-repair ability. The field of articular cartilage tissue engineering has emerged as a significant complementary solution that involves multidisciplinary field and refers to the practice of combining scaffolds, cells, and signalling molecules into functional tissues. The main goal of tissue eng

Exploring the Oic Food Manufacturer Intention Towards Adopting Malaysian Halal Certification
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Halal refers to the Islamic processing methods which places a great value on respect for the individuals and also the society. Currently, there are about 1.5 billion Muslims around the world and people from diverse races and religions are looking for cleaner and purer foods. There is no one set of standards as reference or any in the development ph
