Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDeoiling and Regeneration Efficiencies of Spent Bleaching ClayA. W. Nursulihatimarsyila, K. Y. Cheah, T. G. Chuah et al.Problem statement: Disposal and reuse of Spent Bleaching Clay (SBC) from palm oil processing industry is a problem of growing importance. The residual oil in the SBC can be recovered using hexane as solvent. Approach: In this study, the effect of different solid to solvent ratio on the deoiling efficiency of SBC samples from palm oil refinery and palm kernel … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOmega Network Hash ConstructionChai Wen Chuah, Azman SamsudinProblem statement: Cryptographic hash functions are important cryptographic primitives. They are commonly used for data integrity checking and data authentication. Most of the cryptographic hash functions are based on the Merkle-Damgård construction. The basic Merkle-Damgård construction runs over the input sequentially, which can lead to problems when the input size is large since the computation time increases linearly. Approach: Therefore, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffect of Storage Temperature on the Stability of Phytonutrients in Palm ConcentratesK. Chandrasekaram, M. H. Ng, Y. M. Choo, C. H. ChuahPalm phytonutrient concentrates; a valuable by-product from the production of palm biodiesel contains an abundance of natural phytonutrients such as carotenes, vitamin E, sterols, squalene and coenzyme Q. The present research described the concentration of phytonutrients that obtained from palm biodiesel production. The concentration of phytonutrients available in palm phytonutrients concentrate is ten times higher than in crude palm oil. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComparative Study of Volatile Compounds from Genus OcimumS. Raseetha Vani, S. F. Cheng, C. H. ChuahThere are distinct varieties of basil types in the genus Ocimum which makes them very special. Genus Ocimum is widespread over Asia, Africa and Central & Southern America. All basils are member of the Lamiaceae family. The colors of the leaves vary from bright green to purple-green and sometimes almost black. Fresh basil leaves have a strong and characteristic aroma, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 12,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Reaction Temperature on Retaining Oxirane Oxygen Contents in the Synthesis of Epoxidized DiethanolamidesC. S. Lee, T. L. Ooi, C. H. ChuahEpoxidized diethanolamides were synthesized by reacting diethanolamine (DEA) with mixture of Epoxidized Palm Olein (EPOo ,40% w/w) and Refined Bleached Deodorized Palm Kernel Olein (RBDPKOo , 60% w/w) at 1:3 molar at 80°C for 5 h and continued at 110°C for another 4 h of reaction time. Synthesized diethanolamides with high content of epoxides were reacted with isocyanate in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesExtraction and Identification of Water-Soluble Compounds in Palm-Pressed Fiber by SC-CO2 and GC-MSHarrison Lau Lik Nang, Choo Yuen May, Ma Ah Ngan, Chuah Cheng HockThe residual oil recovered from palm-pressed fiber is known to contain high level of carotenes (4,000 mg kgˉ1 to 6,000 mg kgˉ1) and vitamin E such as tocopherols and tocotrienols (2,000 mg kgˉ1 to 3,000 mg kgˉ1). In this study, the water-soluble compounds in fresh palm-pressed fiber were recovered by supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction. The concentration of these compounds … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,326 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesThe Effect of Physical Refining on Palm Vitamin E (Tocopherol, Tocotrienol and Tocomonoenol)Chiew Wei Puah, Yuen May Choo, Ah Ngan Ma, Cheng Hock ChuahThis study reports the effect of physical refining on palm vitamin E including α- tocopherol, α-, γ and α-tocotrienols as well as α- tocomonoenol. A method using HPLC with fluorescence detector using normal phase silica column is described. An isocratic elution with n-hexane/THF/2-propanol (1000:60:4, by vol.) as mobile phase was used. The structure of the α- tocomonoenol was determined using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAn Overview of Modified Shanks’ Conjecture and Comments on its ValidityN. Gangatharan, T.C. ChuahThis study reports the validity of the modified Shanks’ conjecture on the planar least squares inverse (PLSI) method of stabilizing two-dimensional (2-D) recursive digital filters. A theoretical procedure proposed based on the Lagrange multiplier method of mathematical optimization. The results indicate that the modified Shanks’ conjecture reported by Jury was valid for special classes of 2-D polynomials. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOptical Properties and Sugar Content Determination of Commercial Carbonated Drinks using Surface Plasmon ResonanceW. Y.W. Yusmawati, H. P. Chuah, M. Y.W. MahmoodIn this study, an optical sensor based on Kretschmann SPR technique was used to detect the sugar content in commercial carbonated drinks. Three samples of carbonated drinks labeled as "Coke", "100 Plus" and "F&N Orange" have been chosen for angle scan SPR measurements. All the measurements were carried out at room temperature using He-Ne laser beam (632.8nm, 5mW) as a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 8,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesSeparation of Coenzyme Q10 in Palm Oil by Supercritical Fluid ChromatographyNg Mei Han, Choo Yuen May, Ma Ah Ngan et al.Palm oil is known to host a variety of phytonutrients; some having antioxidant property such as the carotenes and vitamin E.
