Five hundred questionnaires were distributed at various restaurants in a different location at Islamabad, and 385 were returned. Multiple Regression Analysis was used to test hypothesis relationships. The outcome of this research shows that SQ, Pand RE have a positive association with the SAT. In contrast, customer satisfaction also leads to customer loyalty. Moreover, customer satisfaction significantly mediates the association among SQ, P, RE, and customer loyalty. The restaurant operators need to consider that good quality of service, fairness in price, pleasant and attractive restaurant the environment can increase customer satisfaction, which often contributes to customer loyalty.

Identification of Drought Tolerant Related Insertional Mutant Lines Using PEG 6000

Drought is one of the most important abiotic stresses in rice (Oryza sativa) productivity. The development of drought tolerant cultivars are therefore highly desireable. We have developed insertional mutant based on the Japonica rice cv Nipponbare rice by transposons Ac/Ds insertions containing activation-tag and gene trap. Screening of the mutant population for drought tolerant related phenotypes is of our priority. The screening protocol based on PEG 6000 has been developed and was being used to screen 70 mutant lines to characterize their responds to the treatment based on different parameters (number of leaf, total weight, plant height, root length and number of germinating seeds). These characters were used to score the Degradation Index and Vigour Index. Results showed varrying responds of the lines to the osmotic presure. Some lines showing a good performance indicated by lower Degradation Index and higher Vigour Index have been identified. Some inconsistencies in the performances scored by both indices were thought to be due to seed quality.

Interactions Between Anaerobic Oil Bacteria – Monitoring by Classic and Molecular Microbiology

The biogenic production of sulphide is one of the main problems in oil and gas industry, causing corrosion in storage tanks and pipes. This is possible by the injection of seawater during the secondary oil recovery. In the present work high levels of sulphide and acid producers were detected in water/oil samples from several sites from the petroleum industry. In a further stage, a broader range of microbial cells were detected, and finally, metagenomic analysis confirmed the presence of a diversity of microbes, indicating the complexity of the consortium in the production of sulphide, and based on the activity of acid producing cells and associated species.
Comfort Temperature and Lighting Intensity: Ergonomics of Laboratory Room Machine Tools

Laboratories that meet ergonomic standards will support the learning process, both academically and technically, to facilitate the growth and development of skills. This study aims to uncover and provide an overview and information about laboratory ergonomics standards which include thermal comfort (temperature), workspace laboratory lighting. This study uses a quantitative approach with a survey method carried out in the Machine Tool Unit Laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering Education with a population of 60 students who are carrying out practicum. Techniques using direct observation and measurement. Lux Meter to measure lighting and then Digital Thermometer which functions to measure temperature at the observation point in the laboratory. Data collection starting at 07.00 until 12.00 and in the afternoon starting from 13.00 to 16.00, which is the time to do work activities. Measurements made at ten observation points the results showed that; (1) thermal comfort (temperature) with a value of 30.44 degrees Celsius, while the ideal practical standard ranges from 24 – 27 degrees Celsius; (2) Lighting with a value of 422.14 Lux while the ideal practice standard ranges from 500 – 1000 Lux. These results indicate that there is a tendency for temperature and lighting in laboratory rooms under conditions that are less than the standard set. To increase work productivity, these factors can cause less concentration and stress at work.
Behavioral analysis of rock bream Oplegnathus
 fasciatus reveals a strong attraction potential for sea urchin
 extracts

Monitoring fish movement is important to understand how physiology adapts to environmental change. To explore the applicability of a video tracking system for determining if chemical cues attract or repel aquatic animals, the movement patterns of rock bream, Oplegnathus fasciatus, were analyzed upon exposure to various materials, including extracts of sea urchin, rock worm, bait worm, krill, barley kernel, and commercial fish feed. Pellets were prepared by mixing freeze-dried tissues with a cellulose and corn flour mixture. Behavioral analysis was carried out with five fish that had been acclimated in the adaptation zone of a Y-shaped tank. Preference toward chemical cues was quantified by assessing the frequency rock bream were observed in a discrete zone around the test material located at the end of each arm and the duration each fish stayed in each zone. The analysis of fish movement upon exposure to commercial feed and barley kernel at each end, respectively, indicated a clear preference toward the feed relative to the barley kernel. Movement responses were further tested with pellets containing extracts of sea urchin, one of the species collected on a large scale, and other materials including krill and worms. A stronger preference toward sea urchin (100%) was observed based on the duration of stay in the test zone, compared to krill (90.1 ± 44.2%), bait worm (81.1 ± 39.1%), rock worm (73.7 ± 28.9%), and barley (63.9 ± 25.9%), under the conditions tested. A detailed comparison of rock bream movements toward each material revealed significant differences in frequency and duration, respectively, between pairs of test materials including krill (74 ± 29.8 and 375.6 ± 118.9) vs. rock worm (41.5 ± 18.7 and 160.2 ± 42.6), krill (86.3 ± 22.9 and 477.1 ± 84) vs. bait worm (36.2 ± 5.5 and 166.1 ± 50.7), and rock worm (45.9 ± 26.2 and 213.7 ± 100.1) vs. bait worm (34.6 ± 21.7 and 159.5 ± 98.5). Rock bream exhibited preference for the test materials in the following order: commercial fish feed > sea urchin > krill > rock worm > bait worm > barley. The results suggest a higher potency of sea urchin extract as a rock bream fishing bait compared to the other materials that are used as commercial bait.
ALPHA-PINENE ATTENUATES MICROGLIAL NF-ΚB ACTIVATION AND INOS EXPRESSION IN GP120-INDUCED NEUROINFLAMMATION

Background: Neuroinflammation plays a role in the pathogenesis of HIV-associated dementia (HIV). Activation of microglia is essential for triggering inflammatory-mediated neurotoxicity. HIV-1 120 kDa envelope glycoprotein (gp120) induces microglial NF-κB signaling which in turn induces proinflammatory and iNOS gene transcription. Continuous or excessive activation of NF-κB signaling leads to persistent production of TNF-α and nitric oxide by microglia and induces neuronal apoptosis. Alpha-pinene is a natural substance extracted from a pine tree and has efficacy in inhibiting NF-κB signaling. Objective: This study was designed as a true experimental study and aimed to investigate the effect of alpha-pinene administration toward inflammatory response represented by the percentage of microglia containing activated NF-κB and iNOS expression. Methods: Neuron-glia primary culture from brain tissue of rat fetus was divided into 5 groups as follows: negative control; positive control (gp120 1nM); treatment I, II, and III (gp120 1 nM + alphapinene 0.4 μg/mL, 2 μg/mL, and 10 μg/mL, respectively). Microglial NF-κB and iNOS expression were analyzed using the immunohistochemistry method. Neuronal apoptosis was measured by the TUNNEL method. Results: Results showed that alpha-pinene administration on gp120-treated neuron-glia at all dosages decrease NF-kB activation, iNOS expression, and apoptotic neuron significantly as compared to the gp120-only treated group (p<0.05). Furthermore, alpha-pinene did not affect NF-kB activation and neuronal apoptosis (p>0.05), but significantly elevate iNOS expression (p<0.05) mainly in dosage I and II. Conclusion: We concluded that alpha-pinene has neuroprotective effect on gp120-treated neuron-glia cells through modulation of NF-kB and iNOS expression thus inhibit neuronal apoptosis.
EXPLORING THE IMPACT OF SOCIO-DEMOGRAPHIC DIMENSIONS IN CHOOSING A CITY TOURISTIC DESTINATION

This study aims to identify and categorize the pull factors that determine the choice of the city of Porto as a European tourist destination. Furthermore, it intends to explore the role and relevance of socio-demographic variables in these pull factors. This study employs a quantitative approach using questionnaires carried out with tourists on the margins of the Douro River in the city of Porto. A descriptive and correlational analysis of pull factors is performed to understand the importance of them, and a one-way ANOVA is employed to explore the relevance of sociodemographic variables. The findings indicate that the main pull factor that motivates tourists to visit the city of Porto is the hedonic consumption dimension. Furthermore, the most relevant socio-demographic variables in the tourists' behavior are the country of origin, age, gender, and income. This work is particularly relevant for tourism operators by allowing them to formulate and develop a more effective value proposition to the target audience.
Comparison of Effectiveness of Ultrasound plus Strengthening Exercises and Transcutaneous Electric Nerve Stimulation in Managing Functional Activity and Pain in Patients with Acute Knee Osteoarthritis

Introduction: In elderly population, osteoarthritis is very common, affecting mostly knees, hands, hips, spine, and feet. Knee osteoarthritis can be commonly classified into acute or chronic stage. In the present study, four weeks interventions with ultrasound plus strengthening exercises and transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation were given to patients with acute knee osteoarthritis to observe the efficacy of these modalities. Method: A total of purposively selected 50 confirmed cases of acute knee osteoarthritis aged 31-65 years were considered for the present study and were collected from the Government Medical College, Jammu, Jammu & Kashmir, India. The subjects were divided into two groups for intervention. Group A consisted of 25 subjects who were treated with ultrasound plus strengthening exercises for four weeks. Group B consisted of 25 subjects who were treated with transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) for 4 weeks. Results: Statistically significant differences (p<0.022-0.002) were found in functional activity score (before and after treatment) and pain (after treatment) between the two sets of data. When male and female acute knee osteoarthritis patients treated with ultrasound plus strengthening exercises were compared, statistically no significant differences (p>0.05) were found in any case between them. Similarly, when male and female acute knee osteoarthritis patients treated with TENS were compared, statistically significant differences (p<0.035-0.017) were found in weight and BMI only between them. Conclusion: It might be concluded that ultrasound plus strengthening exercises were more effective than transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation for increment of functional activity and reduction of pain in patients with acute knee osteoarthritis.
ARE ISLAMIC STOCKS LESS EXPOSED TO SENTIMENT-BASED MISPRICING THAN NON-ISLAMIC ONES? EVIDENCE FROM THE INDONESIAN STOCK EXCHANGE

The aim of this research is to verify the role of Islamic value in stock mispricing in the Indonesian capital market. Empirically, high investor sentiment can lead to mispricing on equity appraisal. When investors feel excessively optimistic about their valuation, equity will be overpriced, or vice versa. The presence of Islamic values, such as the prohibition of interest, speculative and uncertain transactions, and excessive leverage, arguably reduce sentiment-based mispricing. Daily and cross-sectional market data were employed. In addition, principal component analysis was conducted to construct a firm-specific investor sentiment variable. With regard to the method, the Hausman-Taylor (H-T) approach was used to deal with heterogeneity, endogeneity, and the time-invariant variable in Fama-MacBeth regression. The results show that our baseline analysis confirms the mispricing of overall stocks. However, Islamic stocks are less exposed to sentiment-based mispricing than their non-Islamic counterparts. The results are consistent with our robustness test, in which we estimate the equation model across industry and portfolio. Finally, our findings imply various insights for both investors and policymakers.
Distance Learning During COVID-19 Crisis: Primary and Secondary School Parents Experiences in Kenya

The COVID-19 disease outbreak in 2020 was declared by the World Health Organization as a Public Health Emergency (PHEIC). Human symptoms of the Coronaviruses among others are commonly spread through droplets (coughing) and close personal unprotected contact with an infected person through toughing. Based on the speed at which the disease spreads, learning institutions were distinguished as high-risk areas with prospective of exposing both learners and instructors the spreading the virus. This had a serious effect on the academic programs in all learning institutions worldwide where learning was abruptly discontinued and all students and instructors send home. The Government of Kenya (GOK) through the President’s directives suspended all learning institutions as one of the measures taken by the Ministry of Health to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. This affected the learning since most of the schools had not even started their syllabus that academic year. Alternative measures to ensure that curriculum implementation progressed well; various mechanisms were suggested including remote learning which was actualised in some instances. Virtual lessons and Open and Distance e-learning (ODeL) has mainly been adopted by institutions of higher learning (colleges and universities) globally in offering online classes. However, this was not the case in many public primary and secondary institutions where the common form of learning involves a very interactive physical relationship between teachers and their learners in classrooms. In Kenya, since all institutions of learning were closed as a result of the breakout of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ministry of Education (MOE) opted for remote learning across the country. Research results from Rangwe Sub-county have shown that most learners have not benefited much from the online classes due to the network and other related challenges reported in this paper. This has created education inequity since parents who have children in private schools and those from well of backgrounds are the ones enjoying distance learning programmes offered. The research has also found out that parents did no proper supervision to ensure that their children were committed in their studies in remote settings. Lack of supportive infrastructure (electricity and internet network access) limited children participation in distance learning programmes in Rangwe Sub-county. The paper recommends that government to properly educate parents, teachers and learners on modalities of distance and remote learning programmes. There is need for government to provide children from disadvantaged families with technological appliances to enable them to participate in distance education.

The Role of Social Crowdsourcing in Mobile Tourism

: Social networks and online communities are increasingly becoming a big player in the field of tourism marketing. Consumer behavior is increasingly more influenced by the information exchanged on these communities. Being a community of individuals linked together based on different criteria such as geographic positioning, centers of interest and needs that may be close or similar, social media users can exchange views, opinions, experiences, their recommendations or their disclaimers. This allows to consider the social networks or online communities as a source of information, procurement and learning The purpose of this study is to investigate the behavior of tourists towards using a mobile application which is based on the sharing of feedback and opinions of other fellow travelers. We have used a predesigned questionnaire for conducting the survey. The questionnaire was designed to analyze a user’s behavior towards the use of mobile technology during a trip and the impact of their reviews on others.

IMPACT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES’ INVESTMENTS ON THE PROFITABILITY OF TUNISIAN BANKS: PANEL DATA ANALYSIS

This study examines the relationship between Information Technology investment and the profitability of Tunisian banks, via static and dynamic panel regression models. Our study focused on 15 Tunisian banks for 19 years (2001-2019). To assess the profitability of these banks, three measures were used: two traditional accounting ratios and net interest margin. Our research has shown the importance of the role played by IT in Tunisian banks since IT investments improve their profitability. This finding contradicts the “Productivity Paradox” that high IT investments are not associated with better performance. Indeed, Tunisian banks are acting on their size to boost their performance, and the more the banks take the risk by granting more loans, the more profitable they are by increasing their Return on Assets. Finally, public banks are more profitable than private banks when considering their net interest margin.
