Melanin is the characteristic chromophore of human skin with various potential biological functions. Kerimo discovered enhanced melanin fluorescence by stepwise three-photon excitation in 2011. In this article, step-wise three-photon excited fluorescence (STPEF) spectrum between 450 nm -700 nm of melanin is reported. The melanin STPEF spectrum exhibited an exponential increase with wavelength. ...

2014 We measured the depolarized Rayleigh light scattering by water from 80°C down to 17°C. The spectra obtained could be analysed into two lines, a broad and a sharp one. From the sharp line we deduced a relaxation time which can be interpreted as a reorientational time due to rotations. The broad line gives a relaxation time which is Arrhenius temperature dependent, with an activation energy ...

The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE; M. F. Folstein, S. E. Folstein, & P. R. McHugh, 1975) and the Modified MMSE (E. L. Teng & H. C. Chui, 1987) were compared psychometrically. In this study, 525 community-dwelling participants, aged 65-89, were divided into 2 groups: no cognitive impairment (NCI; n 406) and Alzheimer's disease (n = 119). Both tests yielded comparable reliability estimates....

This paper describes how a Geographical Information System (GIS)-based Decision Support System (DSS) was applied in selecting the most compatible block or compartment to construct a new forest road for a sustainable timber harvesting purposes. The study area was located in Gunong Stong Permanent Forest Reserve, Kelantan, Malaysia between latitude 500’ N and 525’ N and longitude 10120’ E and 102...
