A novel electrochemical glucose biosensor was developed by depositing an ionic liquid (IL) (e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate; [EMIM][Otf]), ZnO nanoparticles (ZnONPs) and eggshell membrane (ESM) on a modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for determination of glucose. Glucose oxidase (GOx) covalently immobilized with glutaraldehyde as cross-linker. Methylene blue used redox indicator to enhance the electron transfer capacity ensure stability both oxidized reduced...
Acropora is the most biologically diverse group of reef-building coral, and its richness peaks at Indo-Malay-Philippine Archipelago, centre global coral reef biodiversity. In this paper, we describe species fauna North Borneo, East Malaysia, based on review literature as corroborated by voucher specimens. Eighty-three are reported here; four 79 supported specimens that were subsequently photographed. New records for Borneo recorded 12 species, including suharsonoi Wallace 1994 was previously...
The genus Trichoderma is a soil-borne fungi which in numerous reports has been successfully used as biological control agent against various plant pathogens. identification of species worldwide currently deduced from micro-morphological descriptions are tedious and prone to error. Electrochemical approaches being developed for the detection analysis DNA. In present study, an electrochemical DNA biosensor was based on ionic liquid (e.g., 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate...
<title>Abstract</title> The goat industry plays a crucial role in Malaysia's economy, with breeds such as Katjang and Boer being the integral to mutton supply. However, achieving self-sufficiency meat production is still challenging due insufficient local carcass To address this issue, crossbreeding program has been initiated improve reproductive performance breeds. In mammals, there are BMP15 GDF9 genes which components of TGF-β superfamily that key regulators ovulation litter size. This...
Bamboo species play pivotal roles in maintaining ecological diversity and driving socio-economic development Sabah, Malaysia. However, due to overlapping traits among distinct bamboo species, identifying them based solely on morphological characteristics poses challenges. DNA barcoding emerges as a highly effective method, demonstrating potential accuracy diverse plant across various taxa ecosystems. In this study, we used the chloroplast matK rbcL regions barcode markers identify 15 plants...
Gracilaria changii seaweed is primarily important as a source of agar with wide applications in food industries. The high demand led to gradual depletion G. natural resources. Establishment vitro culture has an role and allowing explants grow optimally under controlled conditions provide constant, continuous sufficient seedlings supply for farming. This study focused on micropropagation which different exogenous factors influencing growth were investigated: strength chosen medium Provasoli's...
Environmental pH is one of the factors contributing to abiotic stress which in turn influences growth and development macroalgae. This study was conducted order assess physiological changes Kappaphycus alvarezii under different conditions: pHs 6, ∼8.4 (control) 9. K. explants exhibited a difference daily rate (DGR) among treatments (p ≤ 0.05). The highest DGR observed control culture with followed by alkaline (pH 9) acidic 6) induced cultures. Protein expression profile generated from...
Taxonomic confusion exists within the genus Epinephelus due to lack of morphological specializations and overwhelming number species reported in several studies. The homogenous nature morphology has created Malaysian Marine fish fuscoguttatus hexagonatus. In this study, partial DNA sequence 16S gene mitochondrial nucleotide sequences two regions, Cytochrome Oxidase Subunit I III were used investigate phylogenetic relationship between them. trees, E. was monophyletic with hexagonatus...
Rhodophyta (red algae) comprises over 6000 species, however, there have only been a few comparative transcriptomic studies due to their under-representation in genomic databases. Kappaphycus alvarezii, Gigartinales algae, is valuable source of carrageenan and extensively cultivated many countries. The majority seaweed farming Southeast Asia done intertidal zones under varying light (i.e., spectra irradiance) carbon dioxide (CO2) conditions, which affects the rate photosynthesis. This study...
Abstract Background Artificial agriculture is promoted as an economically viable technology for developing plants under controlled conditions whereby light, water, and fertilizer intake are regulated in a manner to produce maximum productivity with minimal resources. light has been used high-quality vegetables because it can regulate plant growth phytochemical production through intensity, photoperiod, spectrum modulation. This study aimed compare the physiological biochemical responses of...
