Antecedents of innovation implementation: a review of literature with meta-analysis

Purpose Assessing the antecedents of innovation implementation holds importance for companies, as previous studies have shown that without proper implementation the innovation is doomed to fail. Over the past few years, research on innovation implementation is growing. However, the evidence on the antecedents of innovation implementation is inconsistent. The purpose of the study is to conduct a review of the literature using meta-analysis to summarize the divergent views present in the literature. Design/methodology/approach A meta-analysis technique is adopted for reviewing the literature. The literature search was conducted with selected keywords in different databases and top journals from the ABDC list (A* and A). Findings The results of the meta-analysis that summarize evidence from 42 papers, 100 effect sizes and 32,223 organizations show the significance and homogeneous/heterogeneous opinions of the past studies. Results reveal the homogeneity in antecedents such as transformational leadership, business collaboration, employee competency, leader competency, absorptive capacity and business size and heterogeneity in the antecedents such as communication, customer collaboration, internal entrainment, external entrainment, implementation climate and strategic resources. Research limitations/implications The results imply that managers attempting to implement innovation in the organizations need to first focus on homogenous antecedents followed by heterogeneous antecedents for successful implementation. Originality/value This study advocates research on innovation implementation. It tests the significance, nature of the relationship and summarizes the divergent views on antecedents of innovation implementation in an organization. The results of this study can also be used in the theoretical advancement of management innovation literature.
Characterization of Purified Collagen from Marine Squid Uroteuthis Duvauceli

Collagen is the essential and most abundant structural protein found in the animal kingdom, involving almost 25-30 % of the entire body protein content. It is normally found in fibrous tissues, for example, skin, tendons, ligaments, skin, corneas, ligament, bones, veins, teeth, and so on. The skin of the squid is rich in collagen and is an excellent source of raw materials that can be used for the development of collagen products. As such, the use of Uroteuthis duvauceli skin is an alternative source of collagen may be an effective way to obtain high-value-added products. In this study, the isolated Type 1 collagen was found in Uroteuthis duvauceli (skin and muscle ). Additionally, the characterization of the Type 1 collagen from Uroteuthis duvauceli (skin and muscle ) was examined through various techniques such as SEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA. The skin and muscle showed the typical SDS-PAGE pattern of type I collagen with two different α bands, α1 and α2 and also contains β and γ chains. The fibrillar structures of collagen samples were observed by SEM. FTIR investigation showed the existence of helical arrangements of the type 1 collagen from skin and muscle. UV spectrum of Type1 collagen from Uroteuthis duvauceli skin and muscle has a maximum absorption peak near 230 nm and a minor absorption peak near 280 nm. In XRD, type1 collagen from Uroteuthis duvauceli skin and muscle one wide peak was obtained following with characteristic diffraction peaks of collagen. The results showed that type 1 collagen from skin and muscle had slight differences in molecular weight, amino acid composition, morphological structures, and thermal stability. The present data on collagens from the marine squid, could help the future endeavors to unwind the therapeutically significant, more secure collagens from marine squid for their utilization in biomedical
Data science and its relationship to library and information science: a content analysis

The purpose of this paper is to present the results of a study exploring the emerging field of data science from the library and information science (LIS) perspective. ,Content analysis of research publications on data science was made of papers published in the Web of Science database to identify the main themes discussed in the publications from the LIS perspective. ,A content analysis of 80 publications is presented. The articles belonged to the six broad categories: data science education and training; knowledge and skills of the data professional; the role of libraries and librarians in the data science movement; tools, techniques and applications of data science; data science from the knowledge management perspective; and data science from the perspective of health sciences. The category of tools, techniques and applications of data science was most addressed by the authors, followed by data science from the perspective of health sciences, data science education and training and knowledge and skills of the data professional. However, several publications fell into several categories because these topics were closely related. ,Only publication recorded in the Web of Science database and with the term “data science” in the topic area were analyzed. Therefore, several relevant studies are not discussed in this paper that either were related to other keywords such as “e-science”, “e-research”, “data service”, “data curation”, “research data management” or “scientific data management” or were not present in the Web of Science database. ,The paper provides the first exploration by content analysis of the field of data science from the perspective of the LIS.

Gene expression pattern Expression of Xenopus homologs of the b-catenin binding protein pontin52

Identification of pontin52 as an interaction partner of the Wnt/Wg signal transducer b-catenin implicated a role for this protein in Wnt signaling. Here we describe the isolation of two Xenopus homologs of pontin52, Xpontin and Xreptin, and report the first expression pattern of vertebrate pontin52 homologs. Whole-mount in situ hybridization studies reveal a strong expression of Xpontin in neural crest cells and in later stages in different gastrointestinal organs. Xreptin is also expressed in neural crest cells, in particular in a subpopulation that give raise to the adrenal medulla. q 2000 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
Gene-Based Methods to Detect Gene-Gene Interaction in R: The GeneGeneInteR Package

GeneGeneInteR is an R package dedicated to the detection of an association between a case-control phenotype and the interaction between two sets of biallelic markers (single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs) in case-control genome-wide associations studies. The development of statistical procedures for searching gene-gene interaction at the SNP-set level has indeed recently grown in popularity as these methods confer advantage in both statistical power and biological interpretation. However, all these methods have been implemented in home made softwares that are for most of them available only on request to the authors and at best have a web interface. Since the implementation of these methods is not straightforward, there is a need for a user-friendly tool to perform gene-based genegene interaction. The purpose of GeneGeneInteR is to propose a collection of tools for all the steps involved in gene-based gene-gene interaction testing in case-control association studies. Illustrated by an example of a dataset related to rheumatoid arthritis, this paper details the implementation of the functions available in GeneGeneInteR to perform an analysis of a collection of SNP sets. Such an analysis aims at addressing the complete statistical pipeline going from data importation to the visualization of the results through data manipulation and statistical analysis.
Thermocatalytic Pyrolysis of Exhausted Arthrospira platensis Biomass after Protein or Lipid Recovery

Microalgae and cyanobacteria are unicellular microorganism that contain high-added-value compounds. To make their extraction economically feasible, the biorefinery concept is the only solution. In this study, the residues resulting from lipid or protein extraction from Arthrospira platensis biomass were valorized by catalytic pyrolysis using ZSM5 zeolite or amorphous silica–alumina as catalyst. The reaction was performed in a quartz reactor, and the catalysts were placed in a fixed bed, to force the reaction gases to pass through it. The reaction products were analyzed by FTIR and GC–MS analyses. The reaction gases and liquids obtained from the extraction residues had higher hydrocarbon contents compared with the untreated biomass. Moreover, the pyrolysis of biomass after protein extraction led to fractions with lower nitrogenated component contents, while that after lipid extraction to fractions with lower oxygenated component contents. This study showed that the pyrolysis process could be used to valorize the microalgae extraction residues, aiming to make biofuels production and extraction of high-added-value products more economically feasible.
Evaluation of the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges and micronuclei in children with type-1 diabetes mellitus

BackgroundOxidative stress-induced DNA damage seems to play a role in the pathogenesis of type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and its complications. The sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) assays are used to evaluate the presence and extent of chromosomal damage. We aimed in this study to evaluate diabetic children with associated genotoxicity using two cytogenetic assay systems (SCE and MN). SCE and MN frequencies were assessed in cultured lymphocytes from diabetic children, and this was correlated with some parameters of T1DM. Participants and methodsThe study was conducted on 66 participants; the patient group consisted of 51 children with T1DM. Fifteen healthy children of same age and sex distribution served as controls. Full history taking, thorough clinical examination, and relevant laboratory investigations were performed for participants, including fasting and postprandial blood glucose, as well as glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c). SCE and MN tests were carried out on lymphocyte cell cultures for all participants. ResultsThe mean age of type-1 diabetic children was 10.77±3.46 years, with a mean duration of diabetes of 3.78±3.88 years. Patients showed a higher frequency of SCE and MN compared with controls (5.93±2.06 and 3.92±1.25, and 27.10±17.76 and 3.85±5.19, respectively; P<0.001 and P<0.001, respectively). Our results showed a positive nonsignificant correlation of duration of the disease with MN and SCE, a positive significant correlation between SCE and postprandial blood glucose levels (r=0.326 and P=0.04), and a positive nonsignificant correlation between SCE and HbA1c. ConclusionOur study revealed a statistically significant difference in MN and SCE frequencies between the patient and control groups, and SCE may be a more sensitive early parameter for genomic instability. An increased level of SCE and MN can be a common cytogenetic marker in children with T1DM.
Targeting Cognition and Motivation in Coordinated Specialty Care for Early Psychosis: A Grant Report

In this grant report, we describe our project to expand measurement-based psychiatric care across 6 early psychosis treatment teams in Minnesota, and to provide a neuroscience-informed cognitive training and motivation enhancement program for individuals with early psychosis. This project is part of the NIMH Early Psychosis Intervention Network (EPINET) initiative which seeks to link data from treatment centers nationally that offer evidence-based specialty care to persons experiencing early psychosis. Systematic analyses of pooled data collected in EPINET will help inform methods for early psychosis care, psychosis risk factors, and pre-emptive interventions. As part of the national EPINET, our hub (Early Psychosis Intervention-Minnesota, EPI-MINN), will: (1) provide measurement-based care in coordinated specialty care programs for early psychosis, (2) determine whether a structured feedback report provides benefit to stakeholders—service users, family members, and primary clinicians, and (3) explore whether deficits in cognition and motivated behavior—two domains that significantly impact functioning and overall quality of life in early psychosis—can be addressed as key treatment goals by implementing a 12-week mobile intervention. Using a regression discontinuity design, participants will be randomized to the cognitive training and motivational enhancement intervention or to treatment as usual. The intervention consists of neuroscience-informed, computerized auditory and social cognitive training exercises, as well as a mobile app where participants interact with each other and with a motivational coach. Participants will complete assessments at 4 time points: baseline and post-intervention (i.e., at 6 months), and again at 12 and 18 months to test the long-term effects of the intervention. All assessments and interventions in this project can be completed entirely remotely.
Social Vulnerability Changes And Sustainable Development In The Flooded Industrial Complex Area

Focusing on disaster risk management of enterprises in industrial complex areas is significant for learning from disasters; however, there has not been much exploration of longer and social-oriented perspectives. Therefore, the study detailed in this paper sought to investigate systematically the changes before and after the 2011 flood disaster in the vulnerability of Ayutthaya province, primarily focusing on the social vulnerability gaps and changes in the district, including areas that both include and do not include industrial parks/estates, in order to examine sustainability. Field surveys and statistical analyses were undertaken to explore this research. As a result, the study found: 1) Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya (PNSA) is the most vulnerable district; 2) the east side of Ayutthaya, which does not include industrial parks/estates, indicates high social vulnerability; 3) Bang Pa-in district, which has two industrial parks/estates, became more vulnerable after the disaster with a growing high susceptibility and exposure tendency. The study recommends that updated flood and vulnerability risk information be shared and active collaboration be undertaken among stakeholders, including central and local government administrations, infrastructure providers, private enterprises and communities, not only during disasters but also before and after the disaster in order to attain sustainable development in the industrial complex area. This research was conducted as a part of the Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) (Japanese government ODA) project.
Symmetrical Review of Mobile App Icons and Their Effect on User Preferences

With the widespread use of mobile phones, increasing use of mobile applications in different areas of life have gained a large place. Between the reasons of the preference of the rapid increasing number of apps in the application markets of the different platforms, the aesthetic appereance of the icons that apps have perhaps the most important one. In this study, the visual symmetrical side of the icons of the most downloaded apss which are developed for preparing to Public Servant Exam in Turkey is emphasized. Two different types of data are obtained with working on the icons with image processing technique by using Mathworks Matlab program and survey method which is applied on Korkut Ata University students. By comparing the obtained data with the binary logistic regression method, it was determined that the visual symmetry in the apps’ icons partially contributed to the aesthetic appreciation.
Taxon‐specific primary production rates on coral reefs in the Florida Keys

Coral reefs are known to have extremely high rates of primary production. However, common geochemical methods for determining bulk rates of reef metabolism cannot distinguish which organisms are responsible for primary production. Here we used a “bottom‐up” approach to estimate the contribution of diverse primary producers including hard corals, octocorals, and algae to gross primary production on coral reefs by scaling up taxon‐specific rates by the abundance of those taxa in the environment. Chamber‐based production rates of the dominant primary producers were obtained as a function of irradiance, the primary short‐term driver of photosynthesis. These rates were then combined with annotated three‐dimensional (3D) reconstructions of reef sections and a simple light field model to estimate reef‐scale gross and net primary production rates over time. At a degraded reef in the Florida Keys octocorals and algae were the main producers, but at a more intact site a scleractinian coral (Acropora palmata) was the most important producer. As a validation of the approach, rates of primary production estimated using the “bottom‐up” approach were compared with in situ eddy covariance fluxes. The daily integrated rates agreed within 16%, though maximal production was ~ 35% lower in the “bottom‐up” approach likely due to under‐representation of octocorals and macroalgae in the 3D reconstructions. The “bottom up” approach yielded results that were largely consistent with the in situ measurements of primary production and irradiance with the significant benefit of providing taxon‐specific and spatially‐explicit primary production rates.
A miniature potentiometric sensor for dopamine determination in vitro

Electrochemical sensors can be used to detect neurotransmitters. A miniature potentiometric all-solid-state coated wire dopamine sensor was investigated in this work. Conducting polymer poly (3,4- ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with poly (styrenesulfonate) as the solid contact was electropolymerized on one end of a gold wire (diameter 0.25 mm). The conducting polymer was covered with a dopamine-selective membrane containing 12-crown-4-tetraphenylborate as a neutral carrier, 2-nitrophenyloctyl ether as a plasticizer and poly (vinyl chloride) as the membrane matrix. The dopamine sensor covered a wide linear range from 10–5 M to 10–1 M with a slope of 53.85 ± 0.93 mV/decade, while the detection limit was 5.80 ± 0.31 µM. The other characteristics of the dopamine sensor were also evaluated. The experimental results showed that the sensor operated properly within the pH range of 5.5–7.5 and displayed good selectivity, fast dynamic response, high reproducibility and long stability. In addition, the dopamine sensor was successfully applied for the detection of dopamine in artificial cerebrospinal fluid by using the standard addition method, indicating that this sensor is promising for applications in dopamine determination in neuroscientific research.
Interconnection Study of a 3 MWp Solar Farm on 20 kV Distribution System Considering Power Flow and Short Circuit

Currently, renewable energy is under review so that its use can be more widespread in the future. One of the renewable energy sources that are commonly used is solar energy through solar cell technology that can convert solar energy into electrical energy and then becomes one of the components that makes up the solar power plant. The use of the solar power plant can be interconnected with distribution networks in electric power systems, both medium-voltage networks and low voltage networks. In this study, a 3 MWp capacity of solar power plant was conducted with the medium-voltage network system of X City. This interconnection study consisted of power flow and short circuit studies using ETAP 12.6. 0 software. The results of the power flow study show the voltage level of each bus has increased by 0.293%-0.926% after interconnection with the solar power plant system, with a value that still matches the SPLN 1:1978 standard of 90% to 105%. Besides, the results of short circuit study show the value of the three-phase short circuit fault current experienced a change in value that is not too significant, with an increase of 1-37 A and a decrease of 1-5 A, with a value that is still according to the protection component rating standard of 25 kA.
