  • Ionic Liquid Mediated Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using Elaeis Guineensis (Oil Palm) Leaves Extract
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 148 ( 2016 ) 568 – 572 4th International Conference on Process Engineering and Advanced Materials Ionic Liquid Mediated Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles Using Elaeis Guineensis (Oil Palm) Leaves Extract Muhammad Irfan*, Tausif Ahmad, M. Muhammad Moniruzzaman, Bawadi B Abdullah, Sekhar Bhattacharjee† Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS, Chemical Engineering Department Bandar Seri Iskandar, 32610, Perak, Malaysia Abstract This study reports that ionic liquid mediated Elaeis. guineensis (oil palm) leaves extract can be used for reduction of gold precursor to obtain stable gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). E. guineensis leaf extract was prepared by using a mixture of distilled water and 2% aq. ionic liquid (1- Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride) as solvents. UV-vis spectra of reaction medium showed surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak (λmax) at 539-557 nm confirm formation of gold nanoparticles. λmax was blue shifted toward 539 nm with increase in volume extract up to 0.60 ml while further addition of extract in the reaction medium resulted in red shifting of SPR band. Emim chloride functioned as a capping agent and results in synthesis of small size gold nanoparticles. TEM image analysis confirmed that average particles size of gold nanoparticles was 20.09±12.36 nm synthesized with an aqueous solution containing 2% Emim chloride as compared to average particle size of 39.60±13.63 nm when only distilled water was used as solvent for extraction of oil palm leaves. FTIR spectra analysis of the extracts identified presence of phenolic, carboxylic and amide groups that play important roles in reduction of gold precursor. © 2016 The Authors.

    Vol: 3 April 2020 Newsletter VIBES HALAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION – THE CUSTODIAN OF MALAYSIA’S HALAL ECONOMY Halal Pharmaceutical Symposium 2020 Signing of MoU between Halal Development Corporation Berhad (HDC) and Acrosx Japan HALAL DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION THE CUSTODIAN OF MALAYSIA’S HALAL ECONOMY Malaysia has long recognized halal as an industry and auspicious driver for value creation and economic growth. The objective to establish Malaysia as a global halal hub was mooted as early as Malaysia’s Vision 2020, followed promptly by the formation of a facilitative industry ecosystem. Early on, Malaysia recognised that the fulfilment of a well-structured halal ecosystem could not manifest in isolation. It has, and continues to rely upon the spirit of harmonious cooperation among public and private sector stakeholders. This is further reflected in Malaysia’s Shared Prosperity Vision 2030 to achieve sustainable and inclusive growth along with fair and equitable distribution across income groups, ethnicities, regions and supply chains. “Halal & Food Hub” is identified as one of the 15 Key Economic Growth Activities (KEGA) derived based on the country’s strengths, capacity and capability, as well as untapped economic potential. The Halal concept has also grown not only as a multi-billion dollar industry, it has evolved in sophistication and application of lifestyle choice. The fact of Halal as being what's permissible in Islamic law has now grown to become what many would describe as a clean and ethical lifestyle choice, among Muslims and those of other religions. Halal practices have proven worthy of choice and gained consumer attraction the world over. However, it's not merely about building markets and selling products, it's about steering the industry in a sustainable trajectory where reach is far more than what we anticipated a decade ago.

  • Redstone Commodity Update Q3
    Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Update 2020: Q3 Welcome to the Redstone Commodity Moves Update Q3 2020, another quarter in a year that has been strongly defined by the pandemic. Overall recruitment levels across the board are still down, although we have seen some pockets of hiring intent. There appears to be a general acknowledgement across all market segments that growth must still be encouraged and planned for, this has taken the form in some quite senior / structural moves. The types of hires witnessed tend to pre-empt more mid-junior levels hires within the same companies in following quarters, which leaves us predicting a stronger than expected finish to Q4 2020 and start to Q1 2021 than we had previously planned for coming out of Q2. The highest volume of moves tracked fell to the energy markets, notably, within power and gas and not within the traditional oil focused roles, overall, we are starting to see greater progress towards carbon neutrality targets. Banks such as ABN, BNP and SocGen have all reduced / pulled out providing commodity trade finance, we can expect competition for the acquiring of finance lines to heat up in the coming months until either new lenders step into the market or more traditional lenders swallow up much of the market. We must also be aware of the potential impact of the US elections on global trade as countries such as Great Britain and China (amongst others) await the outcome of the impending election. Many national trade strategies and corporate investment strategies will hinge on this result in a way that no previous election has.

Such increasing demand for palm oil is due to palm oil’s relatively cheap price and versatile advantage both in edible and non-edible applications. Along with the increasing demand for palm oil, particularly for the production of biofuel, is a heated debate on its sustainability.
