The present investigation was aimed in determining the antibacterial activity of Clitoria ternatea that experiencing water stress treatment which comprises of positive control (watered normally for every 24 hours), negative control (no presence of water) and a treatment where C. ternatea receive water for every 48 hours. Agar disk diffusion assay had been utilized in order to investigate the measurement of zone of inhibition based on the methanolic leaf extract of C. ternatea for each treatment. Plus, calculation had been done for total phenolic content and total flavonoid content, to correlate between the length of inhibition zone. The results show that there is no presence of inhibition zone for all treatments which might be due to the low potency of the methanolic leaf extract, 0.02g/ml. C. ternatea that undergo every 48 hours of water presence hold the highest amount of total phenolic content whilst C. ternatea that encountered negative control of treatment possess the high amount of total flavonoid content. High quantity of phenolic and flavonoid content can be related with high amount of antioxidant capacity.

The effect of different growing media on the growth performance was tested for Clinacanthus nutans (Sabah snake grass). Five different growth media including T1: soil, T2: soil: coco peat (2:1), T3: soil: peat moss (2:1), T4: soil: coco peat (3:1) and T5: soil: peat moss (3:1) were used for growing Clinacanthus nutans. Height of the plants (cm), number of leaves, number of side branches, length of side branches (cm), root length (cm) and root weight (g) were determined. The chemical properties of each growth medium, including pH, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium were also determined. The aimed of this study was to measure the growth rate of Clinacanthus nutans affected by the different growing media. The findings of this study showed the height of the plants (cm), number of leaves, length of side branches (cm), root length (cm) and root weight (g) were affected significantly when the plants were grown in soil mix with peat moss in T3. The finding of this study showed that the increased of nutrient in the growth media can be useful in the growth performance of the Clinacanthus nutans.

This study is about the development of the herbal bath bag during postpartum care. Herbal bathing important for mother because it can fresh mother’s body and gave a therapy during that period. Lack of knowledge about the herbal bathing is the main factor on why this study was conducted. The objectives for this study are to formulate the plant remedies to be used in the 2 in1 mini pocket herbal bath bag production, to investigate the phytochemical that presence in the formulation and determine the presence of anti-bacterial properties in the plant extract based on the formulation and to develop 2 in 1 mini pocket herbal bath bag for traditional herbal bath based on traditional knowledge from the Temuan community in Taman Negara Gunung Ledang. This study focused on two different plant which are Annona muricata (durian belanda) and Psidium guajava (jambu batu). Both plants were used during postpartum care for herbal bathing by indigenous people. Moreover, the plant part used was the leaves. There are five formulation of the plant that a based on the Design Expert software. Basically, this study consists of two tests which are phytochemical screening and antibacterial testing. Phytochemical screening included terpenoids, steroid, flavonoid, quinone and alkaloids test. The result showed that formulation 3 has higher numbers of phytochemical presence which are flavonoid, terpenoid and quinone. In addition, formulation 3 also have higher number of means ± std for result anti-bacterial activity. As a conclusion, the three objectives were successful achieved and formulation 3 was chosen to develop the herbal bath bag.

Stress at the workplace is a global issue faced by individuals and organisations. Police officers are considered to be one of the most stressful occupations globally. This study aimed to determine factors that cause occupational stress and general well-being, the relationship between operational stress and general well-being, organisational stress and general well-being, and compare the level of occupational stress between departments. This cross-sectional study utilised the stratified random sampling procedure and recruited 107 police from a Districts Police Headquarters in Kedah. The Police Stress Questionnaire (PSQ) and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) was used. The data has been entered and analysed using (SPSS) version 24. Perceived operational and organisational stress prevalence among the study population was moderate, with 50% operational stress (moderate stress in 39.3% and high stress in 10.3%), while organisational stress reported 60% (moderate stress in 36.4% and increased stress in 23.4%). The most common stressors reported for operational stress were negative comments from the public (19.6%), while organisational stress was staff shortage (30.8%). There is a significant negative correlation between operational and organisational stress and general well-being with r = -0.806 and r = -0.786. This study strengthens the findings that police job was stressful. The action needs to be taken by the organisational so that occupational stress can be reduced and increase the well-being of the police officers.

Mentha arvensis is commonly known as pudina, corn mint or wild mint belonging to the Lamiaceae family. It is also widely cultivated in Bangladesh, Nepal, India, Srilanka, Thailand, and Japan for its use as a food seasoner, household remedy, and industrial purposes. This paper investigated the treatment of drought and flood stress on Mentha arvensis by controlling the irrigation intervals. The growth parameters which include plant height, number of branches, number of leaves, root length and root weight of Mentha arvensis were measured. Mentha arvensis was planted by using stem cutting and irrigation intervals was controlled in three different conditions after 5 weeks of plantation. The vegetation phase was observed after the water treatment started. Based on the result, Mentha arvensis at 4 days and 6 days of water treatment was more affected by the water stress. This shows that 4 days and 6 days of water treatment undergo slower growth rate in their plant height, number of branches and number of leaves compared to 2 days of water treatment. Mentha arvensis grow best under 2 days of water irrigation intervals. Plants showing improved growth with limited water are considered to tolerate drought, regardless of how the improvement occurs.
