Introduction: Integral transforms are important to solve real problems. Appropriate choice of integral transforms helps to convert differential equations as well as integral equations into terms of an algebraic equation that can be solved easily.During last two decades many integral transforms in the class of Laplace transform are introduced such as Sumudu, Elzaki, Natural, Aboodh, Pourreza, Mohand, G_transform, Sawi and Kamal transforms.
Objectives: In this paper, we introduce a general integral transform in the class of Laplace transform. We study the properties of this transform. Then we compare it with few exiting integral transforms in the Laplace family such as Laplace, Sumudu, Elzaki and G\_transforms, Pourreza, Aboodh and etc.
Methods: A new integral transform is introduced. Then some properties of this integral transform are discussed. This integral transform is used to solve this new transform is used for solving higher order initial value problems, integral equations and fractional order integral equation.
Results: It is proved that those new transforms in the class of Laplace transform which are introduced during last few decades are a special case of this general transform. It is shown that there is no advantage between theses transforms unless for special problems.
Conclusion: It has shown that this new integral transform covers those exiting transforms such as Laplace, Elzaki and Sumudu transforms for different value of p(s) and q(s). We used this new transform for solving ODE, integral equations and fractional integral equations. Also, we can introduce new integral transforms by using this new general integral transform.
