Analisis dan peramalan siri masa suhu adalah penting kerana perubahan suhu boleh membawa kesan serius kepada kesihatan. Kajian ini dijalankan bertujuan menganalisis dan meramal siri masa suhu di Jerantut, Pahang, Malaysia dengan menggunakan pendekatan kalut. Pemodelan kalut dibahagikan kepada dua tahap; pembinaan semula ruang fasa dan proses peramalan. Melalui pembinaan semula ruang fasa, data skalar satu matra dibina semula menjadi ruang fasa multimatra. Ruang fasa multimatra ini digunakan untuk mengesan kehadiran dinamik kalut melalui kaedah plot ruang fasa dan kaedah Cao. Keputusan menunjukkan bahawa siri masa yang diperhatikan bersifat kalut. Oleh itu, peramalan satu jam ke hadapan dibina melalui kaedah penghampiran purata setempat yang merupakan kaedah peramalan asas menggunakan pendekatan kalut. Nilai pekali korelasi yang diperoleh adalah 0.9443. Nilai yang menghampiri satu ini menunjukkan hasil peramalan yang bagus dengan merupakan refleksi bahawa siri masa yang diramal dan siri.....

Study on the chemical constituents of the dichloromethane (DCM) crude extract of Platymitra siamensis Craib has led to the isolation of four oxoaporphine alkaloids. The compounds were identified as liriodenine (1), Omethylmoschatoline (2), lysicamine (3) and cepharadione-A (4) which were isolated first time from this species. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated based on their spectral data (1H, 13C and LCMS) and reports in the literature. Here we observed that, only alkaloid 1 exhibited obvious cytotoxic effects against MCF-7 human breast cancer cells line with IC50 value of 31.26 µM. This work is the first attempt on phytochemical and bioactivity study on the genus of Platymitra...
