PENGARUH LAMA BLANCHING DAN RUMUS PETIKAN DAUN TERHADAP KARAKTERISKTIK FISIK, KIMIA, SERTA SENSORIS TEH DAUN TIN (Ficus carica)

Daun tin yang berasal dari tanaman fig atau ficus carica mengandung berbagai senyawa aktif seperti flavonoid, fenol, tanin, dan quercetin. Daun tin ini salah satunya dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan baku pembuatan teh. Pada pembuatan teh hijau dilakukan proses pemanasan untuk menginaktivasi enzim polifenol oksidase. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh lama blanching dan rumus petikan daun terhadap karakteristik fisik yaitu warna seduhan teh, karakteristik kimia yaitu kadar air, total fenol, kadar tanin, dan aktivitas antioksidan, serta karakteristik sensoris meliputi warna, rasa, aroma, dan overall . Teh daun tin diproses mengikuti cara pengolahan teh hijau, yaitu pelayuan, penggulungan, pengeringan, dan sortasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan dua faktor, yaitu lama blanching ( 0,5,10,15 menit) dan rumus petikan daun (petikan 2 dan 3 serta petikan 4 dan 5). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lama blanching dan rumus petikan daun berpengaruh nyata terhadap karakteristik fisik (warna seduhan) dan kimia (kadar air, fenol, tanin, dan aktivitas antioksidan) teh daun tin. Semakin lama blanching akan menurunkan nilai L dan a seduhan teh sementara nilai b akan semakin tinggi. Semakin lama waktu blanching , karakteristik kimia (kadar air, fenol, tanin, dan aktivitas antioksidan) teh daun tin akan semakin menurun. Semakin tua daun (petikan 4 dan 5) akan menaikkan nilai L, akan tetapi menurunkan nilai a dan b. Semakin tua daun maka kadar air, kadar tanin, dan aktivitas antioksidan teh daun tin semakin menurun. Sedangkan untuk karakteristik sensoris, lama blanching tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap kesukaan warna dan aroma namun berpengaruh nyata terhadap tingkat kesukaan rasa dan overall teh daun tin. Rumus petikan daun tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap tingkat kesukaan warna, aroma, dan overall , namun berpengaruh nyata terhadap tingkat kesukaan rasa teh daun tin.

The Antecedents of Relationship Marketing and Customer Loyalty: A Case of the Designed Fashion Product

Customer loyalty is a desired and essential result for companies in a business environment with a lot of competition, of which the fashion industry is no exception. For the fashion industry, the competition between businesses is increasingly fierce with the appearance of tailored fashion brands for each customer, also known as a designed fashion brand. The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between the antecedents of the relationship (reputation of designer, social media marketing) and customer relationship (trust and intimacy), and loyalty of customer for a designed fashion brand. The mixed research method is used to achieve research objectives with qualitative and quantitative research method. Qualitative data was collected through in-depth interview with 12 participants in Ho Chi Minh City, while quantitative data was collected by a survey of 799 respondents in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi City. The results show that the antecedents of relationship marketing positively affect on customer relationship and customer loyalty. Moreover, customer relationship has a positive impact on the customer loyalty when shopping for fashion products. From the research results, some managerial implications are also proposed for the designed fashion brands to improve the relationship marketing performance.
Genome Status of Lippia alba Polyploid Complex Long-term in vitro Cultivated

This study is the first report of a genetic stability analysis of a polyploid complex maintained in vitro for a long-time. Twenty-two accessions of Lippia alba, a medicinal species of economic importance, had been maintained under in vitro culture conditions for 7 years through sprouting of axillary buds. Four clones of each accession were analyzed, being three plants from in vitro bank and one cultivated in the field. We investigated the genetic stability of diploid, aneuploid, triploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid accessions. The investigation was carried out using flow cytometry, inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. No significant variation in nuclear DNA content was observed between the in vitro conserved plants and their respective field plant. Out of 23 ISSR primers screened, 8 primers were found to produce clear reproducible bands resulting in a total of 5456 bands. 86.36% of the analyzed plantlets (19 accessions) showed at least one polymorphic band. The polymorphic rate ranged from 1.61 to 33.87%. The SSR markers were Original Research Article Julião et al.; EJMP, 30(4): 1-14, 2019; Article no.EJMP. 53563 2 used to confirm the absence or low occurrence of variation in accessions that showed no polymorphism or polymorphism for only one ISSR primer. The genetic instability detected in our study at the molecular level may be attributed to the natural instability of L. alba genome combined with the long-time in vitro maintenance.
Comet assay and cytogenetic findings in differential diagnosis of Fanconi anemia

diagnosis of FA much easier. Cytogenetic method can detect the FA patients with highly elevated chromosomal breakage, but also some of the patients with borderline sensitivity to DEB no matter if they have FA or not. These particular circumstances lead us to introduce comet assay along with cytogenetic analysis, in order to determine DNA lesions and chromosomal fragility in untreated and DEB-treated lymphocytes of full blood from seven patients with clinical features of FA. Highly elevated DEB induced chromosomal sensitivity confirmed the diagnosis in five patients (FA group: 0.48-4.47 breaks/cell vs control group: 0.00-0.08 breaks/cell). Borderline DEB sensitivity (FA* group: 0.15-0.44 breaks/cell) was found in the remaining two patients. Results of the comet assay showed higher baseline and DEB-induced DNA damage values (Olive tail moment and tail intensity) in all five FA and one FA* patient, when compared to the control group. These findings could provide a new model of FA screening test algorithm, including comet assay as additional and very useful accurate tool, beside the DEB test, in differential diagnosis of FA.
The SEC Filing Review Process: Insights from Accounting Research

As part of the goal of enhancing the quality of information available to investors, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reviews filings to identify disclosures or accounting applications that may be materially deficient or require additional clarification. Because of an increasing public interest in this SEC filing review process and its substantial costs involved, to both the SEC in reviewing and to companies in responding, a growing body of literature examines the determinants and outcomes of this process. In this paper, we review prior literature and identify significant gaps that should be addressed in future research. We also detail the institutional features of the SEC filing review process that affect research design for academic studies and provide example SAS codes. Our findings should be of interest to both academics and market participants evaluating the efficacy of the SEC filing review process.
Characteristics Improvement of Claw-Pole Alternators for Automobile Applications by Analyzing 3-D Flux Paths in Rotors

In this article, we investigate rotor design of claw-pole alternators for automobile applications to increase output and decrease core loss. First, the electromagnetic field distribution is calculated by the three-dimensional (3-D) nonlinear time-stepping finite-element method, which considers eddy currents generated at a solid rotor core and a laminated stator core. From the results, a novel rotor design is proposed. Experimental verification is carried out to confirm the advantage of the proposed design. The mechanism of output increase and loss reduction by the proposed alternator is revealed by analyzing detailed 3-D flux paths in the rotors.
LGBTQ+ emerging adults perceptions of discrimination and exclusion within the LGBTQ+ community

ABSTRACT Research on LGBTQ+ emerging adult populations has primarily focused on discrimination that is experienced within the heterodominant culture. Due to systems of oppression and the forces of power and privilege, some sexual and gender minorities experience isolation and discrimination not only within the heterodominant culture, but within the LGBTQ+ community as well. Fourteen lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer/questioning (LGBTQ+) young adults (20–25 years) with a diverse array of intersecting identities (e.g. gender, racial, ethnic, religious, cultural) participated in semi-structured individual interviews and focus groups. Participants reported on experiences of biphobia, acephobia, transphobia, gatekeeping the community, LGBTQ+ people of colour’s experiences of racism within the community, other forms of oppression, and offered advice on areas of growth for the LGBTQ+ community. Findings provide insight into LGBTQ+ emerging adults experiences of discrimination and future research implications.
Evaluating new evidence in the early dynamics of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan, China with real time domestic traffic and potential asymptomatic transmissions

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19), first detected in Wuhan, China in December 2019, has spread to 28 countries/regions with over 43,000 confirmed cases. Much about this outbreak is still unknown. At this early stage of the epidemic, it is important to investigate alternative sources of information to understand its dynamics and spread. With updated real time domestic traffic, this study aims to integrate recent evidence of international evacuees extracted from Wuhan between Jan. 29 and Feb. 2, 2020 to infer the dynamics of the COVD-19 outbreak in Wuhan. In addition, a modified SEIR model was used to evaluate the empirical support for the presence of asymptomatic transmissions. Based on the data examined, this study found little evidence for the presence of asymptomatic transmissions. However, it is still too early to rule out its presence conclusively due to sample size and other limitations. The updated basic reproductive number was found to be 2.12 on average with a 95% credible interval of [2.04, 2.18]. It is smaller than previous estimates probably because the new estimate factors in the social and non-pharmaceutical mitigation implemented in Wuhan through the evacuee dataset. Detailed predictions of infected individuals exported both domestically and internationally were produced. The estimated case confirmation rate has been low but has increased steadily to 23.37% on average. The findings of this study depend on the validity of the underlying assumptions, and continuing work is needed, especially in monitoring the current infection status of Wuhan residents.
Degradation of MinD oscillator complexes by Escherichia coli ClpXP

MinD is a cell division ATPase in Escherichia coli that oscillates from pole to pole and regulates the spatial position of the cell division machinery. Together with MinC and MinE, the Min system restricts assembly of the FtsZ-ring to midcell, oscillating between the opposite ends of the cell and preventing FtsZ-ring misassembly at the poles. Here, we show that the ATP-dependent bacterial proteasome complex ClpXP degrades MinD in reconstituted degradation reactions in vitro, through direct recognition of the MinD N-terminal region, and in vivo. MinD degradation is enhanced during stationary phase, suggesting that ClpXP regulates levels of MinD in cells that are not actively dividing. MinC and MinD are known to co-assemble into linear polymers, therefore we monitored copolymers assembled in vitro after incubation with ClpXP and observed that ClpXP promotes rapid MinCD copolymer disassembly as a result of direct MinD degradation by ClpXP. The N-terminus of MinD, including residue Arg 3, which is near the ATP-binding site, is critical for degradation by ClpXP. Together, these results demonstrate that ClpXP degradation modifies conformational assemblies of MinD in vitro and depresses Min function in vivo during periods of reduced proliferation.
ASSESSMENT OF ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT STANDARD IN FACULTY OF DENTISTRY, UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA

The aim of this study is to evaluate the treatment outcome using fixed and removable appliances, in the Faculty of Dentistry, University of Malaya (U.M.). The study models of 25 fixed and 30 upper removable appliance cases, with complete written records were examined before and after orthodontic treatment using the PAR (Peer Assessment Rating) Index. All the data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) for Windows. Eighty five percent of the cases selected as sample were either 'improved' or 'greatly improved'. Among the 10 cases which were 'greatly improved', all had high pre-treatment PAR points (> 35 PAR points). Conversely, all the eight cases classified as 'worse or no different' were with low pretreatment PAR scores « 20 PAR points). The mean treatment duration in this study was 23. I months, ranging from 2 months to 78 months. The results of this study showed that the standard of treatment in this Faculty were fairly acceptable.
COLLECTION AND CARE OF ACORNS A Practical Guide For Seed Collectors And Nursery Managers

The biological characteristics of acorns present acute problems in the collection and care of these single-seeded fruits. Acorns collected too soon before physiological maturity will seldom germinate normally. Another critical factor is the high natural moisture content of acorns and extreme sensitivity to desiccation that they exhibit when dried only slightly below these high moisture levels. Maintaining this high natural moisture content is the key to maintaining good acorn quality, both in transport and in storage. The information that follows will tell readers how to estimate seed crops; how to collect, clean, and store acorns; how to perform simple test of seed quality on acorns; and how to prepare acorns for planting. The first section is an illustrated, practical " how-to-do-it " guide. The second section presents more detailed information in previously published materials, with links to the individual publications. The primary emphasis is on oaks of the southeastern United States, but many of the principles apply to oaks throughout the world. These publications (by the author and others) have been shortened and editted in several places. They are non-copyrighted government publications that may also be obtained free of charge from U.S. Forest Service offices. Internet links to websites that specialize in seed testing, nursery operations, and other technical information are also listed for those who wish this additional information.

The School To Work Transition And Youth Economic Vulnerability In Egypt

This paper explores the school-to-work transition patterns of young people in Egypt over the past two decades (1998-2018). In particular, it seeks to update the findings on labor market insertion trajectories using data from the most recent Egypt Labor Market Panel Survey (ELMPS) fielded in 2018 along with its predecessor surveys in 1998, 2006 and 2012. The analysis makes use of the 2018 labor market history module to elicit information on early labor market outcomes such as the time taken to find the first job and the type of job found after completing education. We also define youth economic vulnerability in the work setting and investigate its symptoms in the Egyptian labor market including forms of precarious employment (such as informality and irregular work). Finally, we shed light on socioeconomic status as one of the potential channels behind this vulnerability. Results reveal a rise in informal employment among youth in recent years and suggest that belonging to a lower socioeconomic bracket (as proxied by mother’s education and father’s occupation) increases exposure to informality.
Effect of soaking time on rheological properties and settling characteristics of coking coal slurry

ABSTRACT Coking coal is widely used in the steel manufacturing industry for the preparation of coke, as it leaves very less ash after burning. In the present study, rheology, settling characteristics, and pH of coking coal and water slurry (CCWS) are investigated. CCWS is tested for lower mass concentrations of 20%, 25%, and 30% and higher mass concentrations of 50%, 55%, 60%, and 65%, at different time intervals of 0 hours, 24 hours, 28 hours, 48 hours, and 72 hours. Majority of the samples were found to be non-Newtonian and following the Herschel Bulkley model of rheology. Obtained results are used for numerical modeling of rheological parameters, i.e. the flow index (n), the flow consistency index (K), and the yield stress (τ 0). Difference between the values predicted from the models with the values obtained from the experiments is within acceptable range. Static settled concentration of CCWS is obtained by performing sedimentation analysis for all the concentrations and found to be increasing with increasing concentration. pH of the CCWS is measured at all the concentrations. With the increase in concentration, pH of the CCWS is found to be decreasing.
Experimental and surgical technique in the rat.

En la introduccion de este libro, los autores citan el trabajo de J.M. Philipeaux titulado «Note sur le extirpation des capsules surrenales chez rats albinos (Mus Ratus)» (C.R. Acad. Sci., Paris, 43, 904), publicado en 1.856, como el primero del que se tenga referencia en utilizar ratas para la investigacion cientifica. Desde entonces hasta hoy, la rata en sus diferentes variedades se ha convertido en el animal por excelencia en una gran mayoria de los laboratorios de investigacion. Sin embargo, no todos los investigadores que utilizan la rata como animal de experimentacion conocen detalladamente la manera en que deben realizar determinadas intervenciones quirurgicas o la forma de realizar un buen numero de manipulaciones necesarias. Los siete capitulos de este libro proporcionan una amplia panoramica sobre tecnicas usuales y algunas menos comunes.
Epidemiological analysis of facial fractures

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological data, socioeconomic status and prevalence of patients with facial fractures treated at a hospital and an emergency room service from March to August of 2014. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed the epidemiological and demographic data related to these patients. Data were subjected to statistical studies with a signifi cance level of 5%. Results: There were 1348 patients attended to during this period and of these, 144 patients presented facial fractures. Most patients involved were men, the mean age of 32.37 years, social Class C, married, living with more than three persons, and 52.1% from the interior of the state. The most aff ected bones were the mandible, zygomatic complex, nasal, maxillary, and frontal. Most cases involved automobile accidents (45.8%) of these, motorcyclists (38.9%), automobiles (6.3%), trucks (0.7%). Conclusion: From the casuistry of this study, it was concluded that most patients consist of young adults, male, non-white, married, and with low education. The prevailing socioeconomic class is Class C, and most have their own house and are fi nancially independent. A slight majority of the patients come from the interior of the state. Regarding etiology, most were from car accidents and the use of safety equipment was neglected in most cases. The bones fractured most often are the mandible and the bone of the zygomatic complex.
Brachycephalic problems of pugs relevant to animal welfare

Excessive breeding for brachycephaly (fore-shortened muzzle) has led to increasing problems in pugs related to brachycephalic airway syndrome (BAS). Consequently, the German Pug Club (Deutscher Mopsclub eV; DMC) established a stress test in 2009 that must be passed for breeding and requires normalised heart and respiratory rates 15 min after having covered a distance of 1 km. In this study, 42 pugs underwent the stress test under standardised conditions. Taking into account that this exercise should not be too physically demanding for any healthy dog, the results were surprising: 14 of the pugs failed, ie a failure rate of 33.3%. In addition to the stress test, the pugs were assessed according to their heart and respiratory rates at rest, which we predicted would be associated with BAS, and in this test, 21 out of 42 pugs failed. Thus, 50.0% of the pugs were in a severely compromised physical condition. A further group of seven retropugs, ie a crossbreed of pugs with a slightly longer muzzle, was included in the study to compare brachycephalic problems. All of the retropugs passed the test, even when respiratory and heart rates at rest were considered. However, the findings may not be transferable to all retropugs because of the small sample size, so further research is needed. In summary, this study has enabled the development of recommendations for future implementation of stress tests.
Tomato variety affects larval survival but not female preference of the generalist moth Trichoplusia ni

In herbivorous insects, the choice that females make for a suitable host plant is crucial for survival of its offspring because the neonate larvae are generally not capable of moving great distances. The preference‐performance hypothesis states that herbivore females will choose to oviposit on hosts on which their offspring will have better performance. In this study, we investigated whether Trichoplusia ni (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) females are able to discriminate among a weedy race, a landrace, and a commercial cultivar of tomato plants, Solanum lycopersicum L. (Solanaceae), and how their choice affects the offspring performance. Additionally, we identified the volatile compounds and recorded the density of glandular trichomes of the tomato plants. Females did not show a preference for any of the three types of tomato plants. Females oviposited more on the adaxial surface of leaves of commercial cultivar plants than on (any surface of) leaves of weedy‐race plants. The relative abundance of volatiles varied quantitatively among the three types of tomato plants. Commercial cultivar plants released a higher abundance of volatiles than weedy race and landrace plants. Weedy‐race plants had a higher density of glandular trichomes types I and VI than the commercial cultivar. More neonate larvae died if fed on the weedy race and landrace plants than when reared on commercial cultivar plants. Results suggested that the higher mortality of T. ni larvae may be related to a higher density of glandular trichomes on landrace and weedy‐race plants than on commercial cultivar plants, although other constitutive and induced defenses may be involved. Our results do not support the preference‐performance hypothesis.
