TERTIARY LANGUAGE PLANNING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT: CHALLENGES TO VIETNAMESE STUDENTS

Research in the field of English language education has shifted towards interrogating the real role of English in development across disciplines and countries. Vietnam English language policy, especially the National Foreign Languages Project (The NFL Project), have promoted English as a key success factor for Vietnamese students in the labour market as well as the well-being of the nation. This paper focuses on examining the notion of development which investigates the roles of English in Vietnamese tertiary students’ employability. The researchers conducted 527 surveys with tertiary students in four university in the North Vietnam. Moreover, five students and three EFL tertiary instructors from each institution were selected to participate in a follow-up semi-structured interview (N = 32). The results indicated students’ limited level of confidence in both their English skills as well as career-related skills performed in English. In other words, students showed their lack of sufficient English for employability purposes. Aligning the research results with the promising and well-intended agendas of ELP and The NFL Project illuminates a clear mismatch between English and employability. In reality, the relationship between English language education and career development is highly complex and contested, which may influence students’ full development in the long run. Towards the end, the paper offers suggestions for improving pedagogies, policies and practices to promote English as one of vital employability skills for multifaceted personal and national developments.

RATIONALE AND LIMITATIONS OF THE DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS FOR DAIRY FARMS: A REVIEW

This review aims to summarize the current knowledge about the logical basis of the decision support systems and highlighting future research and development needs for their effective adoptions by dairy farmers. Thus, an emphasis was given on the barriers to their wider uptake in the farming community. The article investigates scientific and professional literature regarding the decision support system framework, according to different factors affecting dairy farm profitability, such as optimal replacement decisions, reproductive performance, economic efficiency, and mortality rates. Accordingly, the description of the various methods being applied was covered. Special attention was drawn on the sustainability agenda, also linking to the idea of benchmarking farm performance and modeling impacts of different management decisions. Benchmarking helps to identify where strengths and weaknesses lie within a farm business. The decision support tools can be used to run various scenarios in the field of structural and technical change on dairy farms. Moreover, they can be tailored for dairy farms that differ in intensity and scale. The multi-actor approach during the development phase of the tools, also enabling dairy farmers to co-design them, may improve the acceptance of co-created solutions at the farm-level. It is also important to drive scientists and extension specialists to provide better understandable outputs by the sets of specific training.

Clinical and molecular identification of ruling Theileria annulata strains in cattle calves in Al-Diwaniyah province, Iraq

Article history: Received December 19, 2019 Accepted March 17, 2020 Available online November 1, 2020 This study aimed to investigate the evolutionary status of T. annulata in Al-Diwaniyah province, Iraq. In this study, the clinical examination of 50 infected animals was performed with blood sample collection (2.5ml per animal), and drug targets cytochrome b, a vital component of the electron transfer chain in the mitochondria of the protozoan, cytb gene was targeted using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedure. Also, 18S rRNA gene as a molecular target for the PCR and a partial gene sequencing (PGS) were included. The PCR that involved using the 18S rRNA and cytb genes as genetic targets revealed amplification of the targeted pieces at 620bp and 1092bp, respectively, in all tested samples. The18S rRNA gene sequence of local T. annulata isolates were aligned with global reference strains for T. annulata recorded in the GenBank. The local strains were close, 100%, in their identity to isolates from Iran, Turkey, and Pakistan; however, they were 99% similar to a nucleotide sequences from India and Bangladesh. Diseased calves showed clinical signs such as high fever (40.3-41.5°C), decreased appetite or in appetence, asymmetrical enlargement of superficial lymph nodes particularly the prescapular ones, some cases with diarrhea, pale or icteric mucus membrane of eyes, bulging eyes, lacrimation, ecchymotic hemorrhages on the sclera, incoordination, nervous signs (Dullness, depression, lethargy), salivation, and bloated young calves. The data observed from the present inspecting work may reveal genetic evolution in the local strains with others recorded in the GeneBank. This means that our local strains might have close relationships with some global strains.
Comparison of Ag and AgI-Modified ZnO as Heterogeneous Photocatalysts for Simulated Sunlight Driven Photodegradation of Metronidazole

Ag and AgI-modified ZnO composites (Ag/ZnO and AgI/ZnO) were synthesized in facile ways. The photocatalysts were used for the photodegradation of metronidazole (MNZ) under the irradiation of simulated sunlight. The results of experiments showed that both Ag/ZnO and AgI/ZnO had a specific molar ratio to reach the best performance. Ag/ZnO performed better in the photodegradation of MNZ than AgI/ZnO under the same conditions. The reaction rate constant of AgI/ZnO was less affected by the variation of initial concentration of MNZ or pH values. The main reactive oxygen species of the photocatalytic process are OH, O2− and h+, but the free radicals which play the most critical part differ in Ag/ZnO and AgI/ZnO. Several intermediates were revealed by LC–MS/MS analysis. The stability of the photocatalysts was evaluated by a series of repeated MNZ photodegradation experiments. The results showed that AgI/ZnO had better stability than Ag/ZnO.
Development of functional knitted fabrics using yarn composed of polypyrrole coated cotton fibers

This study aimed at developing a knitted fabric using conductive staple spun yarn composed of polypyrrole coated cotton fibers and characterizing its thermal, optical and electrical properties, hydrophobic behavior as well as mechanical stiffness as a factor of weight percentage in fabrics. FTIR spectra, TGA and SEM verify that the polypyrrole ((PPy) has been successfully coated on cotton fibres before and after washing. The results showed that the fabrics containing polypyrrole had lower transmission and reflection percentage as compared with fabric without polypyrrole for wavelengths ranging from 200 to 20000 nm. At the investigated weight percentages, the thermal properties, hydrophobicity and electrical conductivity were found to be increased significantly with increasing amount of polypyrrole coated cotton fibers in the fabric. The thermal conductivity of fabrics with PPy coated fibers were found to be increased around 30-40%. The higher value of electrical conductivity (0.73 µS cm−1) was obtained in course direction and static water contact angle of 138° for fabric with higher polypyrrole content. The stiffness of the fabrics with PPy was found to increase about 10–20% in both wale wise and course wise directions with increase of polypyrrole coated cotton fibers in fabrics.
Dissolved and Particulate Organic Matter Dynamics Relative to Sediment Resuspension Induced by the Tidal Cycle in Macrotidal Estuaries, Kyushu, Japan

The tide-induced resuspension of sediments plays important roles in the efflux of particulate organic carbon (POC) from rivers to the coastal sea. Although dissolved organic carbon (DOC) comprises more than half of the riverine flux of organic carbon to the ocean, the influence of sediment resuspension induced by the tidal cycle on DOC dynamics is largely unknown. This study examined the dynamics of POC, particulate organic nitrogen (PON), DOC, humic-like and protein-like fluorescent dissolved organic matter (DOM) in relation to the tidal cycle in the Chikugo and Hayatsue River Estuaries, Kyushu, Japan. This study is the first to show both the particulate organic matter (POM) and DOM dynamics in relation to the tidal cycle in the macrotidal estuaries. We found that the turbidity changed with the tidal cycle and that there were significant positive correlations of turbidity with POC and PON in the Chikugo River mouth, suggesting that tide-induced sediment resuspension supplied POM to the water column. The DOC concentration, humic-like and protein-like fluorescent DOM were not correlated with turbidity but were negatively correlated with salinity. These results suggest that POM efflux, but not DOM efflux, can be accelerated by tide-induced sediment resuspension in the macrotidal estuaries.
A conserved regulatory program drives emergence of the lateral plate mesoderm

Cardiovascular lineages develop together with kidney, smooth muscle, and limb connective tissue progenitors from the lateral plate mesoderm (LPM). How the LPM initially emerges and how its downstream fates are molecularly interconnected remain unknown. Here, we isolated a pan-LPM enhancer in the zebrafish draculin (drl) gene that provides specific LPM reporter activity from early gastrulation. In toto live imaging and lineage tracing of drl-based reporters captured the dynamic LPM emergence as lineage-restricted mesendoderm field. The drl pan-LPM enhancer responds to the transcription factors EomesoderminA, FoxH1, and MixL1 that combined with Smad activity drive LPM emergence. We uncovered specific drl reporter activity in LPM-corresponding territories of several chordates including chicken, axolotl, lamprey, Ciona, and amphioxus, revealing a universal upstream LPM program. Altogether, our work provides a mechanistic framework for LPM emergence as defined progenitor field, possibly representing an ancient mesodermal cell state that predates the primordial vertebrate embryo.
A new large embolomere from East Kirkton

The well-known late Mississippian/early Carboniferous locality of East Kirkton in Scotland has the earliest described fauna of terrestrial tetrapods. Seven species are now known, represented by articulated skeletons of moderate-sized animals with snout-vent length of up to 200 mm, and each is unique to East Kirkton. Here we describe the skull bones of a much larger tetrapod that closely resembles those of embolomeres from the Pennsylvanian. Although the new material is too incomplete to be named as a new species, it enhances the taxonomic diversity of the East Kirkton tetrapod fauna, predates the embolomeres from other sites in Scotland and extends the range of the group earlier into the Mississippian.
EXTRATOS FOLIARES DE Olea europaea L.: UMA ALTERNATIVA AOS ADITIVOS QUÍMICOS CONVENCIONAIS

RESUMO – A utilização de extratos vegetais tende a ser uma alternativa aos aditivos químicos convencionais, sendo o extrato de folhas de oliveira (Olea europea L.) uma opção com potencial uso como antimicrobiano. O objetivo deste trabalho foi a preparação de extratos de folhas de oliveira utilizando-se diferentes metodologias, a fim de se investigar a atividade antimicrobiana. Os extratos foram produzidos através de extração sólido-líquido por maceração, variando-se temperatura, agitação e tipo de filtração (filtração a vácuo com papel filtro, filtração simples com meios filtrantes de algodão hidrofílico, tecido e lã de vidro). A atividade antimicrobiana foi determinada por análises de inibição pelos extratos obtidos e foram feitas pelo método do cultivo em placas. A linhagem bacteriana utilizada nesse estudo foi Escherichia coli (ATCC 11229). Nas análises de inibição dos extratos, constatou-se que os extratos produzidos com menor tamanho de partícula das folhas processadas, obtidos após filtração com tecido, na menor temperatura e na maior agitação apresentaram o maior poder de inibição. Conclui-se que o extrato possui benefícios potenciais à aplicação como antimicrobiano, podendo ser incorporado na composição de embalagens para alimentos.
Fattening performance and meat quality of Pekin ducks under different rearing systems

Pekin ducks are easily reared in a wide range of conditions. As waterfowl, the growth, digestive system and visual perception of Pekin ducks are different to chickens. Generally, ducks are raised for meat production. The fat content as well as the myoglobin and haemoglobin content of duck meat are higher than that of chicken meat. In duck rearing, both the fattening performance and the quality of meat are important from the consumer's and the producer's point of view. Different rearing systems are used for ducks which affect the welfare, fattening performance, quality of meat and economics of the products. The aim of this review is to discuss the effects of different rearing systems used for Pekin ducks on fattening performance and quality of meat.

The Epical Worlds of Myth and Reality in Matthew Arnold's Poetry

The Victorian poet and critic, Matthew Arnold was a Christian humanist, strived to tackle with the ailments and aches of Modernity which had afflicted the Late Victorian Communities. His works which are tinted with romantic elements are modern works which communicate the unspeakable, i.e., and resonate his universal message in the most effective way. Arnold’s poems represent two contrasted epical worlds; one mythological and a realistic one which are populated by heroic character. However, in spite of their different natures these two worlds always create a unified platform for its inhabitants. Due to this quality Arnold's stories become more universalized and this realm portrays heroes who take part in the epical struggle against evil in order to save the 'Humane Values'. This research sheds light on some of his poems which depict such themes and techniques.
Efeito de nisina e pediocina sobre culturas de Staphylococcus aureus isoladas de carcaças de frango

Staphylococcus aureus is an important pathogen associated with foodborne illnesses. Antibiotic-resistant strains have been discovered, and therefore finding alternative substances to control this pathogen has become important to prevent its proliferation. Bacteriocins are metabolites produced by several bacterial genera, including lactic acid bacteria. These substances have been revealed to have bioactive properties, including antimicrobial ones. We aimed to analyze the effect of the bacteriocins nisin (1.25% and 2.5%) and pediocin (1%, 5% and 10%) on different isolates of Staphylococcus aureus obtained from poultry carcasses. Seven strong biofilm-forming isolates of S. aureus were used. We evaluated the antimicrobial activity of these bacteriocins on the isolates and also determined the decrease in bacterial count in whole UHT milk upon nisin addition. Thermal stability of the bacteriocins in skimmed and whole UHT milk was also evaluated. In the antimicrobial activity test, only nisin showed an opposing effect on S. aureus isolates, except for the F3-3 isolate, which was not sensitive to this substance. In assessing arbitrary units, nisin showed higher activity than 100 AU mL-1 for two S. aureus isolates (F4-1 and F5-1). In evaluating the effect of bacteriocins, nisin (1.25%) showed a bacteriostatic effect on the growth of S. aureus F4-1. Regarding the thermal stability of nisin and pediocin, there was a reduction in the residual activity of both substances when heat-treated, which demonstrated the influence of a higher fat content (approximately 3%). The results revealed that the higher antimicrobial effect of nisin may be worth exploring for use in growth control of S. aureus in meat products.
Most Wanted

In contexts of insecurity and inequality across the world, criminal groups have developed into powerful, state-like organizations. Marginalized citizens in search of protection and support may look to criminal leaders, gangs and mafias rather than to politicians and state agencies. Providing residents with forms of social welfare, security and resolutions for dispute, these criminal organizations have taken on the functions and symbols of the state. But criminals’ positions of power are not only rooted in their social provisioning role, or even in the use of fear and force. Most Wanted illustrates how popular culture is producing the socio-political authority of bosses, gangs and cartels through discussions of Italian, Japanese and Russian mafias, and of criminal groups in Brazil, Ghana, Jamaica, and the United States. The essays collected here analyze different forms of visual, material and performative culture, including street art, film, video games, dance parties, popular music and various everyday objects.
GC-MS-Based Metabolomics Analysis of Prawn Shell Waste Co-Fermentation by Lactobacillus plantarum and Bacillus subtilis

GC-MS-based metabolomics were used to investigate metabolic changes in prawn shell waste during fermentation. Microbial strains Lactobacillus plantarum and Bacillus subtilis were co-fermented in a shake flask comprising of 5% (w/v) prawn shell waste and 20% (w/v) glucose as a carbon source. Analysis of the prawn shell waste fermentation showed a total of 376 metabolites detected in the culture supernatant, including 14 amino acids, 106 organic acids, and 90 antimicrobial molecules. Results show that the liquid fraction of the co-fermentation is promising for harvesting valuable metabolites for probiotics application.
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification for human influenza A viruses

Influenza diagnostic testing is a pivotal public health tool because this viral infection causes enormous morbidity, mortality and financial burden. Laboratory diagnosis of influenza infection also plays an important role in the individual patient management and outbreak control that all resulting in significant financial benefits (1). There are a number of molecular tests developed for rapid detection and typing of influenza virus. Reverse transcriptase PCR using specific primers recommended by WHO has been set up and used in diagnostic laboratories worldwide for rapid detection and typing of influenza viruses (2). In the last decades several modern molecular techniques have been innovated that provides the new alternatives for molecular diagnosis of infectious disease (3). In 2000 Notomi et al. reported a novel nucleic acid amplification method, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) working based on selfrecurring strand-displacement DNA synthesis primed by a specially designed set of targetspecific primers (4). Soon after LAMP assay as a more rapid, accurate and cost-effective method has been taken into consideration in Influenza molecular detection. Several studies have been reported the successfully application of LAMP/RT-LAMP method for detection of different subtypes of influenza viruses such as H1N1, H3N2, H5N1, H9N2 (5, 6, 7). Here, we carried out LAMP approach for detection of the human influenza A viruses (H1 and H3) using primers introduced by Poon et al in 2005, as mentioned in table 1 (8). This set of primers is specific for M fragment but by designing degenerated nucleotides in their sequences, it just detects human H1, H2 and H3 isolates. Two standard seasonal influenza virus strains, H1N1 (New Caledonia 20/1999) and H3N2 (A/H3N2/Panama/2007/99) were obtained from Pasteur Institute, Influenza Research Lab. 150 microliter of infected culture supernatant of each virus sample, equivalent to 4×10 3
Phenotypic diversity analysis of iron rich rice landraces

Anemia in human being due to iron deficiency would be solved with the intake of iron rich rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain developed by biofortification. Phenotypical study of obsolete rice germplasms containing high iron content is important. Phenotypic characters like flowering and maturity time; plant height; tillers hill‑1; grains panicle‑1; seed weight and grain yield plant‑1 were studied for 39 rice genotypes in this research. In this research, Malagoti showed early maturity (126 day), Dhar Shail showed highest filled grain panicle-1 (303), Marish Shail showed highest grain yield plant-1 (86.66g), and Karengal showed lowest filled grain panicle-1 (59.67) and lowest grain yield plant-1 (17.20g). Number of filled grains panicle-1 showed high heritability. All the yield contributing traits except panicle length and unfilled grains panicle-1 were significantly and positively correlated with grain yield plant-1 at both phenotypic and genotypic level. The highest direct effects (0.486 and 9.75) on grain yield plant-1 were found for plant height and days to maturity at phenotypic and genotypic level with residual effect 0.461 and 0.496 respectively. Finally, the obsolete genotypes with highest grain yield (Marish Shail) and early maturity (Malagoti) performance would be used as breeding materials to improve iron rich rice varieties.
