The results showed that there is a positive relationship between the four factors and the intention to purchase halal cosmetic products

The Effect Of Compaction Temperatures On The Marshall Properties Of Asphaltic Concrete

Asphaltic concrete can caused significant problems if using an inappropriate compaction temperature. Asphalt mixture usually loses their temperature during transportation and when laying down to be compacted. Temperature controls asphalt mixture viscosity which affect its ability to coat and provide adequate lubrication for aggregates and slides with each other and pack into dense mass during compaction. Compaction is one of major issue and an important criteria for asphaltic concrete process. At road construction site in Malaysia, the lowering compaction temperature are caused by transportation of mix, weather, and other factor that cannot be minimized

The Multiple Violation of Maxim in Doctor Strange in The Multiverse Film

This study aims to describe the multiple violations of maxims based on the cooperative principle at the utterances in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness film and the intended meanings in it. This type of study is a qualitative descriptive research. The data consisted of twenty utterances in the film that reflected the violation of maxims based on the cooperative principle. Data collection was carried out by observation which consisted of several stages, namely identifying and marking the violation of maxims in the speech in the film, grouping each data based on the type of violation of the maxims, then coding the data. Data analysis was carried out by describing the context in each utterance and then analyzing it using Cutting's maxim violation theory. The result shows that the speakers violating four multiple maxims (quantity, quality, relation, and manner) totally 11 data or 55%, three maxims ((quantity, relation, manner), (quantity, quality, manner), (quantity, quality, relation)) totally 7 data or 35%, two maxims (quantity and quality) totally 1 data or 5 %, and one maxim (quality) totally 1 data or 5%. The meaning of violation by the speaker is intended to avoid the conflict, to intimidate someone, and to create a lie

Potential differentiation of three types of primitive cells originated from different proliferation terms of mouse blood

The aim of this study was to differentiate central blood system mononucleated cells in vitro into osteoblast and osteoclast cells for three different proliferation terms of cells. The mononucleated cells were cultured in a selective proliferation medium for three different proliferation terms, i.e., short (5 days), medium (15 days) and long term (30 days) prior to analysis of osteoblast and osteoclast cells’ differentiation potentialities. The proliferation medium was then supplemented with differentiation factors, i.e., ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate to differentiate mononucleated cells into osteoblast cells. For osteoclast assay, RANKL and M-CSF were added into proliferation medium. For control, the same cells were used without supplementation of respective differentiation factors. The viability of differentiated cells from short, medium and long types of cells showed that they were able to survive until 10 to 14 days in the presence of respective differentiation factors without significant increased in the specific differentiation medium. Biochemical analyses on both alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activities were significantly increased (p<0.05) once cultured in their respective differentiation medium. In conclusion, the three types of primitive cells have the same potentiality to differentiate into mature osteoblast and osteoclast cells even though the proliferation rates are different, i.e. 0.37, 0.55 and 0.72 division/day for short, medium and long term cells respectively. Mononucleated cells isolated from peripheral blood are primitive enough to differentiate into two distinct types of mature cells which originated from two different stem cells lineage hence can be categorized as multipotent stem cells

Stem Cell Heterogeneity of Mononucleated Cells from Murine Peripheral Blood: Molecular Analysis

The main purpose of this paper was to determine the heterogeneity of primary isolated mononucleated cells that originated from the peripheral blood system by observing molecular markers. The isolated cells were cultured in complete medium for 4 to 7 days prior to the separation of different cell types, that is, adherent and suspension. Following a total culture time of 14 days, adherent cells activated the Cd105 gene while suspension cells activated the Sca-1 gene. Both progenitor markers, Cbfa-1 and Ostf-1, were inactivated in both suspension and adherent cells after 14-day culture compared to cells cultured 3 days in designated differentiation medium. In conclusion, molecular analyses showed that primary mononucleated cells are heterogeneous, consisting of hematopoietic stem cells (suspension) and mesenchymal stem cells (adherent) while both cells contained no progenitor cells

Relationship between perceived organizational support, leadership behavior, and job satisfaction: an empirical study in Iran

As the second largest producer of cement after Egypt in the Middle East, Iran planned to increase production from 33 million ton/yr (Mt/yr) currently to 70 Mt/yr by 2021 due to increase in local demand and also to compete in export markets (Dehqan, 2002). Thus, Iran is experiencing some changes in workforce participation in order to achieve high level of organisational performance and effectiveness. The objective of this study is to determine the impact of leadership behavior and perceived organisational support on the job satisfaction of Iranian employees. Data were collected through questionnaire from 136 employees working in Tehran Cement Company. Consideration leadership behavior was found to have significant impact on both intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction whereas perceived organisational support was significantly related to extrinsic job satisfaction. Interestingly, the interaction of leadership behavior and perceived organisational support were not significantly related to job satisfaction. The implications to human resource development for organizations that want to increase employee commitment is to focus on improving the quality of the supportive relationships between the employees and both the leader and the organisationPeer Reviewe

Pengkulturan dan pencirian penanda molekul sel stem manusia daripada pulpa gigi susu (SHED) dan gigi kekal (DPSC)

Sel stem pulpa gigi manusia yang dipencilkan daripada tisu pulpa gigi merupakan sel stem dewasa bersifat multipoten. Objektif kajian ini adalah untuk mengenal pasti teknik pengkulturan in vitro sel stem pulpa gigi susu (SHED) dan gigi kekal (DPSC) melalui penentuan pasaj, kesan eraman tripsin-EDTA dan potensi proliferasi serta untuk mencirikan kedua-dua sel ini melalui profil penanda molekul. Kaedah pencernaan enzim digunakan pada tisu pulpa gigi susu dan gigi kekal masing-masing untuk pemencilan sel SHED dan DPSC. Kedua-dua sel dikulturkan daripada pasaj 1 hingga 5 dan pewarnaan tripan biru digunakan untuk memperoleh lengkuk pertumbuhan bagi menentukan masa penggandaan populasi sel (PDT) pada setiap pasaj. Kesan tripsin-EDTA terhadap kedua-dua sel dikaji menggunakan pewarnaan Alamar biru untuk menentukan masa eraman yang optimum semasa proses pengsubkulturan. Potensi proliferasi in vitro bagi kedua-dua sel selama 21 hari ditentukan melalui asai 3-(4,5-dimetiltiazol-2-il)-2,5-difeniltetrazolium bromida (MTT). Pencirian kedua-dua sel melalui pengekspresan penanda biologi molekul ditentukan melalui pendekatan RT-PCR. Morfologi kedua-dua sel didapati menyerupai sel fibroblas pada kesemua pasaj. Sel SHED dan DPSC pada pasaj 3 menunjukkan PDT terendah iaitu masing-masing 43 ± 2.3 dan 63 ± 3.1 jam. Pendedahan SHED terhadap tripsin-EDTA menunjukkan penurunan peratus sel viabel berbanding DPSC. Pertumbuhan sel SHED didapati ~2.3 kali ganda lebih tinggi berbanding DPSC. Pencirian molekul kedua-dua sel menunjukkan pengekspresan penanda sel stem mesekima dan bukannya penanda sel stem hematopoietik. Kesimpulannya, morfologi sel yang homogenus dan nilai PDT terendah yang ditunjukkan oleh sel daripada pasaj 3 menjadikannya pasaj terbaik untuk menentukan potensi proliferasi sel dan pengekpresan penanda molekul. SHED didapati mampu berproliferasi dengan lebih baik berbanding DPSC. Walau bagaimanapun, DPSC lebih rentan terhadap tripsin-EDTA berbanding SHED. Pencirian molekul pula mendapati kedua-dua sel merupakan sel stem jenis mesenkima
