    • Canine-specific PCR assay targeting cytochrome b gene for the detection of dog meat adulteration in commercial frankfurters 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali; Md. Mahfujur, Rahman; Sharifah Bee, Abd Hamid; Shuhaimi, Mustafa; Bhassu, Subha; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr. (Springer, 2014-01)
      This report described a cytochrome b (cytb)-based polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the detection of canine tissues in commercial frankfurters. Discriminating detection of canine derivatives in processed food ...
    • Characterisation, analysis and optical properties of nanostructure ZnO using the sol-gel method 

      Muhammad, Kashif; Yarub, Al-Douri, Assoc. Prof. Dr.; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Md. Eaqub, Ali; Syed Muhammad Usman, Ali; Willander, Magnus, Prof (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2012-02)
      Nanostructure ZnO was grown on thin aluminium layer, deposited on silicon substrate using the sol-gel method. The surface morphologies of nanostructure ZnO at different precursor concentrations were studied using scanning ...
    • Development of swine-specific DNA markers for biosensor-based halal authentication 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Muhammad, Kashif; Shuhaimi, Mustafa, Assoc. Prof Dr.; Yaakob, Che Man, Prof. Dr. (Fundacao de Pesquisas Cientificas de Ribeirao Preto (FUNPEC-RO), 2012-06)
      The pig (Sus scrofa) mitochondrial genome was targeted to design short (15-30 nucleotides) DNA markers that would be suitable for biosensor-based hybridization detection of target DNA. Short DNA markers are reported to ...
    • Nanobiosensor for the detection and quantification of pork adulteration in meatball formulation 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali, Dr.; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Shuhaimi, Mustafa; Yaakob, Che Man; Tijjani Adam, Shuwa; Qazi Muhammad, Humayun (Taylor & Francis, 2014)
      A 27-nucleotide AluI fragment of swine cytochrome b (cytb) gene was integrated to 3-nm diameter citrate–tannate-coated gold nanoparticles to fabricate a species-specific nanobiosensor. The biosensor was applied to authenticate ...
    • NanoDNA chip for the detection of porcine derivatives in halal products 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Md. Fazlul, Bari, Dr. (Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)Centre for Graduate Studies, 2010-10-16)
      Pig (Sus scrofa) mitochondrial genome was analyzed for AluI sites by NEB cutter version 2 and REBASE softwares. Out of 66 AluI fragments, five were selected as probes for the construction of porcine mitochondrial DNA ...
    • Species authentication methods in foods and feeds: The present, past, and future of halal forensics 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali; Muhammad, Kashif; Md. Kamal, Uddin; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Shuhaimi, Mustafa, Prof. Madya Dr.; Yaacob, Che Man, Prof. Datuk Dr. (Springer Science+Business Media, LLC., 2012-09)
      We extensively reviewed the existing as well as the potentials of the molecular biology and nanotechnology methods for the identification of animal-derived materials in foods and feeds. The verification of animal-derived ...
    • Structural and impedance spectroscopy study of Al-doped ZnO nanorods grown by sol-gel method 

      Muhammad, Kashif; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Md. Eaqub, Ali; Ala'eddin Ahmad Jaber, Saif, Dr.; Syed Muhammad Usman, Ali; Willander, Magnus, Prof (Emerald Group Publishing Limited, 2012)
      Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the electrical transport mechanism of the Al-doped ZnO nanorods at different temperatures by employing impedance spectroscopy. Design/methodology/approach – Al-doped ...
    • Taqman real-time polymerase chain reaction for the determination of pork adulteration in meat nuggets 

      Md. Eaqub, Ali; Uda, Hashim, Prof. Dr.; Shuhaimi, Mustafa, Assoc. Prof. Dr.; Yaacob, Che Man, Prof. Datuk Dr.; Md. Abdul, Latif, Dr.; Khondaker, Nurul Islam; Md. Zuki, Abu Bakar, Prof. Dr.; Md. Majibar, Rahman (Vup Food Research Institute, 2012)
      A TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction was developed for the determination of pork adulteration in nuggets. The assay combined species-specific primers and TaqMan probe to target a 109 bp fragment of swine cytochrome ...
