    Islamic banking industry has introduced a Shariah-compliant products since it began operating around 1980's. One of the successful products that interest and has helped customers in ensuring comfort of living is a Bai Inah personal financing. There are several reasons which might influence the customers using this scheme as to obtain financing for education, marriage, their own investments, or to perform the pilgrimage in Mecca. However, lately, there has been doubt in the concept of Bai Inah applied in this Bai Inah personal financing. This is because, most of the Islamic banking abroad are more likely to use the concept of tawarruq 'to be applied in personal financing. They claimed that the concept of tawarruq’ is more suitable to be applied in personal financing. Therefore, the researcher interested to evaluate the customers' perception towards Bai Inah personal financing and to identify if the concept of Bai Inah is still convenience to be applied in this scheme. As a result from the survey of questionnaires that were filled by the bank's customers, it can be concluded that customers still agree with the concept of Bai Inah applied in personal financing. This indicates that customers are still satisfied with the Bai Inah personal financing schemes and it shown that this scheme is still acceptable by Islamic banks in Malaysia

    Noise is defined as unwanted sound where this type of sound has been recognized by several organizations and parties as the potential hazard to the human. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) has categorize that the noise impact can be specific to noise issue such as hearing loss, interference with speech communication, disturbance of rest and sleep, psycho - physiological, performance effects, annoyance and effects on residential behavior live near to construction site. Nowdays, the noise issues likely to betaken severely in the development and planning of the housing project. This situation can be seen whereby there are many construction work was implemented near to residential area. During construction work in progress, has variety construction activities are carried out such as piling work, excavation work, concreting work and installation of formwork. From this construction activity, it will produce excessive noise and indirectly will impact to residents. By holding on this current issued, this research has been done whereby the aim of this research is to study the noise emission from nearby construction site to residential area. Then a comparison will be made of the noise level experience by the resident with the permissible noise level set up by the Department of Environment (DOE) with carry out noise measurement. Therefore, the end of this research based on data was gathered will come out with findings and the expected output will be one of the guideline as their reference in order to reduce the excessive of the noise level on construction sites

    Current concepts on oxidative/carbonyl stress, inflammation and epigenetics in pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

    Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a global health problem. The current therapies for COPD are poorly effective and the mainstays of pharmacotherapy are bronchodilators. A better understanding of the pathobiology of COPD is critical for the development of novel therapies. In the present review, we have discussed the roles of oxidative/aldehyde stress, inflammation/immunity, and chromatin remodeling in the pathogenesis of COPD. An imbalance of oxidants/antioxidants caused by cigarette smoke and other pollutants/biomass fuels plays an important role in the pathogenesis of COPD by regulating redox-sensitive transcription factors (e.g., NF-κB), autophagy and unfolded protein response leading to chronic lung inflammatory response. Cigarette smoke also activates canonical/alternative NF-κB pathways and their upstream kinases leading to sustained inflammatory response in lungs. Recently, epigenetic regulation has been shown to be critical for the development of COPD because the expression/activity of enzymes that regulate these epigenetic modifications have been reported to be abnormal in airways of COPD patients. Hence, the significant advances made in understanding the pathophysiology of COPD as described herein will identify novel therapeutic targets for intervention in COPD

    Fractography of chopped fiber glass reinforced epoxy composite at +50°C and -50°C under dynamic impact loading / Nazrin, A., Mridha, S. and Rahman, M.A.

    Hand lay up process was used to fabricate the chopped fiber composite containing 52 vol% fiber fraction. The impact Testing for fracturing the samples was conducted using Charpy impact test at +50°C and -50°C. The energy to fracture the specimens was found to decrease with reduced temperature. The sample broke at +50°C gave plastic deformation with mixed fracture mode of cracked fiber bundles, buckling and fiber splitting. While at -50°C the fractured specimens gave the same plastic deformations but with more fibers splitting than that tested at +50°C. The failures were concentrated at pendulum striking areas and V notch areas. These failures caused by compressive stress at striking areas and tensile stress at notch areas. Fiber protrusion was seen in samples tested at both temperatures and It happened because of short fiber filaments. The short fiber filaments gave easier matrix cracking at short distances and this may be one of the reasons of having lower energy absorption compared to the continuous woven fiber

    Environmental toxicity, redox signaling and lung inflammation:the role of glutathione

    No full text
    Glutathione (gamma-glutamyl-cysteinyl-glycine, GSH) is the most abundant intracellular antioxidant thiol and is central to redox defense during oxidative stress. GSH metabolism is tightly regulated and has been implicated in redox signaling and also in protection against environmental oxidant-mediated injury. Changes in the ratio of the reduced and disulfide form (GSH/GSSG) can affect signaling pathways that participate in a broad array of physiological responses from cell proliferation, autophagy and apoptosis to gene expression that involve H(2)O(2) as a second messenger. Oxidative stress due to oxidant/antioxidant imbalance and also due to environmental oxidants is an important component during inflammation and respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and asthma. It is known to activate multiple stress kinase pathways and redox-sensitive transcription factors such as Nrf2, NF-kappaB and AP-1, which differentially regulate the genes for pro-inflammatory cytokines as well as the protective antioxidant genes. Understanding the regulatory mechanisms for the induction of antioxidants, such as GSH, versus pro-inflammatory mediators at sites of oxidant-directed injuries may allow for the development of novel therapies which will allow pharmacological manipulation of GSH synthesis during inflammation and oxidative injury. This article features the current knowledge about the role of GSH in redox signaling, GSH biosynthesis and particularly the regulation of transcription factor Nrf2 by GSH and downstream signaling during oxidative stress and inflammation in various pulmonary diseases. We also discussed the current therapeutic clinical trials using GSH and other thiol compounds, such as N-acetyl-l-cysteine, fudosteine, carbocysteine, erdosteine in environment-induced airways disease

    Pragmatic education thought-instrumental is a philosophic point of view that blends with the religious viewpoint of abstract speculation in outlining the education. One of renewing Islamic education is Fazlur Rahman. According to him, the goal of Islamic education are as renewal which is the initial step in the Islamization for all aspects of human life. The study of library (library research) i.e. research sourced from material libraries using a qualitative approach. In this case, the author does exploration of a number of primary data as well as secondary data. The author does an analysis of the concept of Islamic education prespective Fazlur Rahman and relevance against the modern world. The concept of educational thought Fazlur Rahman i.e. the Qur\u27an as a guide in resolving every problem and the answer and make the human person that are creative, have moral values in accordance with the Qur\u27an. Whereas, education as an alternative to the secular science by receiving updates and tried to enter it with Islamic concepts as for Islamic education renewal effort started from the educational objectives, educational system, learners, educators and the means of education. The relevance of educational thought on modern world Fazlur Rahman now is integration between religion and discrimination through public education, omission of religion and public education, this has been done wrong by the College namely IAIN with try to follow the thinking of education Fazlur Rahman dare change the State Islamic University (UIN)
