Society Exchange Characteristics, Service Quality, and Relationship Quality between Hospital and Its Suppliers

Successful supply chain management provides an enterprise with a new competitive advantage. However, successful supply chain performance is based on a high level of trust and strong commitment among supply chain partners. Studies have indicated that communication, partnerâ€™s reputation, perceived benefits, fairness, and relationship tenure that are within the context of social exchange theory have an effect on trust. In the current study, we attempted to integrate two types of theories of social exchange and service quality by proposing an integrated model that influences the factor to trust and commitment. We then applied structural equation modeling to test the model. The study results indicated that a hospitalâ€™s trust in its supply chain partner is highly associated with commitment. The study included respondents comprising medical device procurement staff working in hospitals within Taiwan. A total of 500 questionnaires were distributed; 316 completed questionnaires were received. The results revealed that communication, partnerâ€™s reputation, and perceived benefits had a positive effect on trust. Service quality was also determined to have a positive effect on trust and commitment. This result should provide reference for a hospital and its relationship with suppliers, which helps monitor decision variables in the supply chain management of medical devices.
Role of packet tracer in simulating server services on the client-server computer network

In a client-server architecture, a server is dedicated to providing various services, functions, and resources to serve its clients’ requests over a computer network. To understand and expertise this concept, a lot of exercises are critically needed. This aims to improve learners’ practical skills as well as to expand their knowledge. However, a real client-server network with the representative servers and network devices is costly. It is sometimes not available for the experiment and trial. In this case, a network simulator can be a reasonable substitute. This study uses Cisco Packet Tracer to simulate various server services such as DHCP, HTTP, DNS, FTP, Email, NTP, Firewall and IoT Registration Server. The mini-project simulation is proposed to explore the capabilities of the simulator to providing a wide range of server services. All settings and testing are visualized followed by the discussion of each result. It is expected that by practicing and mastering this mini-project simulation, learners can first build the client-server network using proper devices, wiring, naming, and addressing on a single monitor. Second, they can understand all the server parameters and then able to configure them step by step. And third, they can easily conduct testing, tracing and troubleshooting afterward. Furthermore, this work has a goal to build a bridge between network theory and practical aspects simultaneously so that learners will have a lot of confidence when working on a real network.

Role of Hydrolytic Enzymes of Some Fungi in Rotting Fruits and a Possibility of Retard Spoilage

This study was designed to identify some fungi responsible for damage of fruits in storage and sale outlet markets. Results declared the role of CMC-ase and poly galacturonase (PG) enzymes secreted by three fungi of Alternaria alternata, Penicillium italicum and Rhizopus stolonifer in decomposition of tomato, lemon and cucumber fruits at the grocery markets in Sakaka, Saudi Arabia. CMC-ase and PG were produced after 2 days for P. italicum, R. stolonifer whereas very little quantity was detected for A. alternata. Maximum CMC-ase and PG production were seen after 8-10 days of incubation at 28oC. Enzyme production started at a temperature of 5°C but in small quantities, then the production began to increase steadily until the temperature of 28°C, which produced the highest amount of enzymes. The production began to decline starting at 35oC to be at the lowest rates at 40oC. Enzymes were produced at pH values of 4.5-9.5, with optima between 5.5-6.5 for the three tested fungi. Acidic medium of pH 4.5, and alkaline medium (above pH 6.5) affected negatively on the production of enzymes, and this effect was more evident in the exo CMC-ase and exo PG than in endo enzymes. Results showed that the mixture of menthol crystals & Eucalyptus oil & camphor & methyl salicylate oil-rich air inhibited growth of R. stolonifer and A. alternata by 100% and inhibited the growth of P. italicum by approximately 50%, compared to the control sample. Camphor and mint oils gave negative effect. Application of devices to emit the odor and quench this mixture of menthol crystals & Eucalyptus oil & camphor & methyl salicylate to fumigate the air of stores and outlets for selling vegetables and fruits are recommended.
ASSESSING THE YIELD STABILITY OF NINETEEN CHICKPEA (CICER ARIETINUM L.) GENOTYPES GROWN UNDER MULTIPLE ENVIRONMENTS IN SOUTH-EASTERN ANATOLIA, TURKEY

The identification of high performance stable genotypes is essential for increasing sustainable chickpea production in Turkey. Hence, nineteen chickpea genotypes were examined for stability assessment in different environments in Southeastern Anatolia, Turkey. Chickpea genotypes were sown in early spring and planted in the winter. The analysis of variance showed that the genotypes and locations were significantly differed in the majority of the studied characters. The regression coefficient, deviations of the regression coefficients, coefficient of variation, ecovalence and stability variance were calculated for chickpea genotypes. The stability parameters were varied by the planting dates and environments in which the chickpea genotypes were grown. Among the studied chickpea genotypes, genotype ‘FLIP98-143C’ was considered as high grain yield and low b value and produced the minimum deviation regarding the regression, genotypic variance, coefficient of variation, ecovalence and stability variance. Therefore, the genotype ‘FLIP98-143C’ may be used as a stable and high yielding variety in the future and also it may be used in future breeding programs to develop good varieties.
Development of a fast analytical methodology based on HS-PTV-GC-MS to determine antioxidants in motor oils

Die gegenstandige Arbeit ist eine sensitive Methode zur Bestimmung von Antioxidantien (2-, 3- und 4- tert-Butylphenol, 2,6-di-tert-Butylphenol, 3-tert-butyl-4-Hydroxyanisol, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl-Phenol, 1-Naphthol und di-Phenylamin) in neuen und gebrauchten Motorolen. Die Messungen wurden an einem Gaschromatographen durchgefuhrt der mit einem headspace sampler (HS), einem Temperatur-programmierbaren Verdampfer (PTV) und einer MS-Detektionseinheit ausgestattet ist. Die vorgeschlagene Methode benotigt keinen Proben Vorbereitungsschritt, wodurch mogliche Fehler in diesem Schritt eliminiert werden. Es mussen lediglich die Olprobe (2.0 g) und Propylacetat als Losungsmittel (20 μL) in das Glasflaschchen gegeben werden. Solvent vent Injektion erlaubt die Konzentrierung der Analyte im Liner, der mit Tenax-TA R gefullt ist, wahrend andere Komponenten des Headspace ventiliert werden. Dadurch wird das Leben von Liner und Kappillarsaule verlangert und unnotige Verschmutzung der Detektionseinheit wird vermieden. Die Kalibration wurde in einem neuen Ol durchgefuhrt, das keine der genannten Analyte enthalt, indem unterschiedliche Konzentrationen derselben zugegeben wurden. Detektionsgrenzen bis hin zu 0.57 μg/L (2-tert-Butylphenol) mit einer Prazision unter oder gleich 5.3% wurden erreicht. Die Konzentrationen in neuen Olproben unterschiedlicher Viskositat (5W40, 10W40, 15W40) wurden mit Hilfe der vorherigen Kalibration bestimmt und die Ergebisse waren sehr zufriedenstellend. Die Antioxidantien in gebrauchten Olen wurden aufgrund von Matrixeffekt mittels Standard-Addition bestimmt.
Exploring the Relationship between Self-efficacy and Mathematics Performance in Integral Calculus among Applied Science University Students

Perceived self-efficacy refers to the people’s beliefs in their capabilities to exert control over their own functioning and over events that affect their live. Accessing student self-efficacy can provide educator with additional insight of students’ subsequent performance. Hence, this study examined the relationship between self-efficacy and mathematics performance among Applied Science university students. The sample consisted of first year Applied Science university students from two different backgrounds; matriculation and diploma. Students were given two sets of survey questionnaire which were developed by the authors to measure the students’ self-efficacy and their ability to solve the integral calculus questions. The questions were divided into four domains namely concept of calculus, translation from concept to formula, techniques of integration and recognition of functions. The findings from this study did not fully provide evidence to support the view that positive self-efficacy beliefs in mathematics increase mathematics performance since there was no significant impact on what the students perceived and what they actually scored. However, this study found out that if the aspects of self-efficacy were to be examined individually to see if there was any significant impact towards mathematics performance, it can be seen that Techniques of integration (r = 0.243, p < 0.05) and Recognition of function (r = 0.205, p < 0.05) were significant and positively related to mathematics performance to some extent. The study also showed that self–efficacy is correlated with all of the aspects of performance which the correlations values are as follows: Concept in Calculus (r = 0.730, p < 0.01), Translation from Concept to Formula (r = 0.705, p < 0.01), Techniques of integration (r = 0.852, p < 0.01) and Recognition of function (r = 0.773, p < 0.01). The results of this study can help the educators to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of the current mathematics teaching.
Aggregation of Eurasian Scops Owls Otus scops Breeding in Magpie Pica pica Nests

The Eurasian Scops Owl, a small nocturnal raptor living in continental and southern Europe, is often solitary and territorial but sometimes forms local groups, of which little is known. In this study, I examined a group of territorial Scops Owls in a habitat with limited nest site availability in Southern Italy in July of 2016 and 2017. Male Scops Owls were identified through spectrographic analysis of their vocalizations, and their location was recorded. Male Scops Owls clustered around a human-inhabited area with significant noise and light pollution and avoided the undisturbed forest, which apparently was only used for foraging. The location of territories was relatively consistent in two subsequent years. Scops Owls tended to sing where conspecifics occurred, not necessarily near their own nests. Sometimes neighbouring males occupied the same area and sang simultaneously, even when close to each other. The results are in contrast with the concept of an all-purpose, exclusive territory described for this species as the norm, and suggest that the social and spatial organization of this population is more flexible than previously thought. Scops Owls bred exclusively in abandoned Eurasian Magpie Pica pica nests, which is unusual for this typically cavity-nesting species and was presumably caused by the lack of alternative sites. The distribution of Magpie nests might thus be the main driver of nest spacing and territorial behaviour of Scops Owls in this presumably nesting site limited population. However, the underlying cause of aggregation is unknown.
Interaction Network and Niche Analysis of Natural Enemy Communities and their Host Bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) in fragments of Cerrado and Atlantic Forest

Natural enemies are important components of solitary bee communities that nest in preexisting cavities because they act as a relevant mortality factor and can regulate population growth. Despite this, the natural enemy-host interaction remains poorly investigated. This research aimed to determine the composition of the community, the structure of the interaction network, and niche overlap and breadth of natural enemy species in areas of Cerrado (Brazilian savanna) and Semideciduous seasonal forest (Atlantic Forest) in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Trap-nests made of black cardboard and bamboo canes were provided in the field and inspected monthly in each area, from August 2001 to July 2003 at Cerrado and from June 2006 to May 2008 at the Semideciduous seasonal forest. A modular structure in the interaction network was observed for both areas with the populations of natural enemies showing high degrees of specialization. This structure confers higher stability against disturbances than less specialized webs since these adversities must spread more slowly through the network. The niche analysis showed low degrees of overlap for both, trophic and temporal, among the natural enemy populations.
Neurodevelopmental and behavioural outcome of the HIV-exposed uninfected infant and child

Background: The expanding population of HIV-exposed uninfected (HEU) infants has public health implications for lowand middle-income countries (LMIC). There is little information regarding the longitudinal neurodevelopmental and behavioural outcome of infants and children in the first 3 years of life, a critical period for brain development. Methods: We conducted a narrative review aimed at providing an overview of how HIV exposure affects cognitive, language, motor, socio-emotional and behavioural outcome of HEU infants and young pre-school children in LMIC. In addition, the influence of risk and protective factors, resilience, and the current use of child development assessment tools (CDAT) are described. We reviewed studies published between January 1992 and August 2019 with predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, using search engines PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Results: There were mixed findings on neurodevelopmental outcome in children under three years of age from LMIC, with limited research on behaviour, while heterogeneity of CDAT use complicated study comparisons. However, there is a growing understanding of risk and protective factors, the role of resilience in determining outcome, as well as the development of CDAT tools that include neuropsychological and physiological components, are culture-neutral, and can be applied in global research. Conclusions: Further longitudinal studies encompassing comprehensive multi-level assessment of neurodevelopment and behavioural outcome are necessary, with incorporation of CDAT which include neuropsychological measures, and allow for cross-country comparison. 7 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za
Factors affecting adolescent nutritional status in Banda Aceh, Indonesia

The purpose of this study was to examine factors affecting nutritional status, anemia status, and adolescent blood pressure in Banda Aceh, Indonesia. A cross-sectional study was designed using interviewed questionnaire on nutritional status, knowledge about nutrition, and anemia status. National Health Research Data (Riskesdas) in 2013 shows the prevalence of obesity in adolescents 13-15 years based on Body Mass Index (BMI) was 8.3% and for very fat was reaches 2.5%. Although these prevalences are still lower than the national prevalence, which is 8.2% and 1.7%, there are still many other issues that need serious attention related to nutrition in adolescents. For this reason, we use adolescent BMI to see adolescent nutritional status. Moreover, to find out the factors affecting adolescent nutritional status, multivariate regression analysis is used. Before estimating parameters by multivariate regression, predictor variables were reduced using factor analysis and five new factors were generated from the reduction. The results shows that factors affecting the nutritional status are dietary factors, pocket money and age factors, and knowledge about nutrition. Factors affecting anemia Status are allowance and age, income, and a number of family member. While the factors that affect the blood pressure is allowance and age and the number of family member.
Isolation and Screening of Cellulolytic Fungi from Municipal Solid Waste

This Study was conducted to isolate and screen cellulolytic fungi from municipal solid wastes for cellulolytic activity. Twenty two fungi were isolated and characterized from refuse dump soil of different locations in zaria metropolis using cultural method and microscopic technique. Among them, 86.4% belong to the genus Aspergillus. Fungi isolated were screened for cellulase activity after which Aspergillus niger was found to be the most promising among the cellulase producing isolates with diameter of zones of clearance 64, 65 and 73mm respectively. This shows that majority of the fungi that exist in the soil of municipal solid waste are cellulolytic.
Seasonal and directional dispersal behavior in an ongoing dove invasion

The dispersal behavior that underlies range expansions can be difficult to study. Eurasian Collared-Doves have staged independent northwestward invasions across both Europe and North America, reaching carrying capacity in Europe but continuing to increase exponentially in the Americas, where their dispersal behavior remains enigmatic. I used citizen science observations to investigate Eurasian Collared-Dove dispersal behavior along the North American Pacific coast, a natural barrier to land-bird dispersal. Using coastal and pelagic observations, I assessed the seasonality and directionality of dispersal and its prevalence across years. Dispersal flights peaked in spring, like in Europe, and were north-biased, consistent with northwestward initial colonization. A non-significant trend of increasing dispersal across years may reflect evolution of dispersal via spatial sorting and selection. These results inform management of this invasive dove, raise new questions about evolutionary mechanisms behind the invasion, and exemplify using citizen science to study dispersal behavior, a longstanding challenge in ecology.
Gestión normativa ciudadana: construcción desde la felicidad social y paz en Colombia

Social happiness and peace as categories of analysis both in its epistemological construction and in its factual implementation, require review practices and citizens exercises, democratic (formal), that they have promoted peaceful coexistence for purpose of generating higher levels of social welfare, as well as the involved citizen social tissue, which demands the support of legal mechanisms instituted from the State and its Governments. In this order of ideas, in this dissertation the central objective was to identify mechanisms and standards linked with citizen management for the construction of social happiness, from the peace process in Colombia (since 2012-july 2018), through the review of the literature, documentary, and historical, conceptual analysis. As a result, it was evident that the institutional performance of the State, the Colombian Government, and the management citizen, have not been effective to boost the collective practices in the attainment of these goals, Therefore, it is concluded; You must educate citizens so they manage participative devices that encourage social happiness and peace from the established mandatory configurations.
Synthèse, caractérisation et étude des propriétés thermodynamiques d'hydrogénation de nanocomposites matériaux poreux / métaux-alliages

Plusieurs verrous scientifiques et technologiques empechent aujourd’hui de developper une technique et/ou un materiau qui permette de stocker une quantite importante d’hydrogene a pression et temperature ambiante dans un volume et un poids acceptable pour des applications embarquees. Une possible solution consiste a synthetiser des materiaux hybrides (materiaux poreux/metaux ou alliages) ou les processus d’adsorption et d’absorption pourraient cooperer pour obtenir une capacite de stockage d’hydrogene en adequation avec les besoins des applications. Notre travail a consiste a identifier et caracteriser differents materiaux poreux ayant une organisation de pores bien definie et une taille de l’ordre de quelques nanometres. Parmi eux, ont ete choisis : une replique de carbone (CT) et un reseau organometallique (MOF-5). De plus, plusieurs metaux nobles (Ni, Pd et Pt) ont ete choisis pour leur facilite a dissocier l’hydrogene et a former des alliages (Pd-Ni) avec differentes compositions en milieu aqueux (oxydant). Une methode d’impregnation par voie chimique ainsi que le broyage mecanique ont ete utilises pour la synthese des hybrides. L’etude des proprietes structurales, texturales et thermodynamiques (hydrogenation) des composites CT/Pd a montre qu’un effet cooperatif existe entre les pores du CT et les nanoparticules metalliques pendant le processus d’ad/absorption d’hydrogene. Cette interaction entraine une amelioration de la capacite d’hydrogenation par rapport a chacun des constituants de l’hybride.
Biofortification: Golden way to save life from micronutrient deficiency

More than half of the world’s population is affected by micronutrient malnutrition or deficiency and painstaking to be among the most serious global challenges to humankind. Modern plant breeding along with agronomic manipulation has been oriented toward achieving high agronomic yields than nutritional qualities. However, other efforts are expanding to alleviating the problems through industrial fortification or pharmaceutical supplementation which is very costly for the commoners. Micronutrient malnutrition or hidden hunger is very common among adolescent girls, women and preschool children caused mainly by low dietary intake of micronutrients, especially zinc and iron. Biofortification, the process of increasing the bioavailable concentrations of essential elements in edible portions of crop plants through agronomic intervention or genetic selection, may be the solution to malnutrition or deficiency mitigation. The Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research has been investigating the genetic potential to improve bioavailability of Fe and Zn in staple food crops such as rice, wheat, maize, common beans, and cassava.
