The impact of job stress on job satisfaction among academics of public university in Selangor / Nur Shafini Mohd Said ... [et al.]
The study investigate s the impact of job stress satisfaction among academics of on job public university in Selangor. The purpose of the study is to analyze the relationships between the factors that affect stress, which are Workload, Role of Ambiguity and Role of Conflict. The researchers have selected the academicians from the public university in Selangor as the study population, which involved 320 academicians. The statistical analyses were performed using version 23 of the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). In order to identify the impact of job stress on job satisfaction, the Correlation and Multiple Regressions analyses were used. The results s howed that there is a weak relationship between ind ependent and dependent variables. The researchers hope that the results will also provide numerous benefits to the organization
The effects of Phthalic Anhydride on R-Hdpe / Eva / Cff composites: tensile and physical properties
Link to publisher's homepage at https://iopscience.iop.org/Phthalic anhydride is one of the compromise coupling agents that enhance the
dispersion and hydrophobicity of fiber which consequently improved the interfacial adhesion
of composites. This article is concerned with the mechanical properties, morphology, and
functional groups towards recycled high density polyethylene (r-HDPE)/ethylene vinyl
acetate (EVA)/chicken feather fiber (CFF)/phthalic anhydride (PAH) composites. In this
study, the r-HDPE/EVA/CFF/PAH composites with varies loading of phthalic anhydride (2,
4, 6 and 8 phr) were moulded into compression moulding machine and tested using
conventional universal testing machine. Morphology and functional groups properties were
characterized using field emission microscope (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. The results showed that the tensile and physical
properties (water absorption and oven aging) of r-HDPE/EVA/CFF/PAH composites were
slightly affected by the phthalic anhydride loading
The Influences of Chicken Feather Loading on Tensile and Physical Properties of R-Hdpe/Eva/Cff Composites
Link to publisher's homepage at https://iopscience.iop.org/PE/EVA blends are one of the popular existing commercial polymers which catch many attentions among researchers and manufacturing industry. This article is concerned with the mechanical properties, morphology, and functional groups towards recycled high density polyethylene (r-HDPE)/ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) reinforced with chicken feather fiber (CFF). In this study, the r-HDPE/EVA/CFF composites with varies ratio of chicken feather (2.5, 5.0, 7.5, 10.0, and 12.5 phr) were moulded into compression moulding machine and tested using conventional universal testing machine. Morphology and functional groups
properties were characterized using field emission microscope (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), respectively. The results showed that the tensile and physical properties (water absorption and oven aging) of r-HDPE/EVA/CFF composites were slightly affected by the chicken feather fiber content
Bacterial Pneumonia Co-Infection in COVID-19 Patients
The objective of this study was to highlight the emergence of COVID-19 bacteria pneumonia co-infections in patients infected with SARS-Cov-2 and risk factors related to its incidence and outcomes. We reported two cases of elderly patients with multiple comorbidities infected with SARS-Cov-2 and developed COVID-19 bacterial pneumonia requiring admission to intensive care unit (ICU) with one mortality preceded by septicemic shock and multi-organ failures. Observing the potential risk factors for being infected with SARS-Cov-2 and developing COVID-19 bacterial pneumonia we strongly advocate for rapid detection of COVID-19 bacterial pneumonia in SARS-Cov-2 infected patients and rapidly characterized the bacterial involved for a better outcome and importantly for efficient antimicrobial stewardship. COVID-19 bacterial pneumonia is an emerging disease requiring rapid detection and bacterial characterization with the ongoing management for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2
