Authors: Saleem Ahsan , Farooq Ameeq , Ahmad Rafeeq
Published: February 2023

In present research, it is aimed to study the effect of different interface of steel reinforcement bars on the pull out and bond strength of the concrete. The concrete possess a good compressional strength but relatively low pull out strength. So to enhance its pull out strength different reinforcements like steel bars, wires etc. are introduced in the concrete. The introduced steel bars give good pull out properties to concrete but also affected in corrosive environment. Different interface is made to protect these bars from corrosion by applying different treatment on the interface between surrounding concrete and steel bars which affects the bond strength between concrete and the re-bar. Reinforced bars are surface treated with emulsion paint, polyester resin, alkali and lubricating oil. Ravi and Chenab sand are used to produce two different concrete, having the compressional strength of 24.37 MPa and 19.25 MPa respectively. Pull out testing to find out the pullout strength which is further used to calculate the bond strengths. The results shows that both types of concrete specimens possess the maximum pull out and bond strength for untreated reinforcement bars The specimens with painted reinforcement bars has the minimum pull out and bond strength among all the specimens. The ravi sand has pull out strength of 5kN and 3kN for untreated and paint surface treated respectively while chenab sand has pull out strength of 7.5kN and 2.5kN for untreated and paint surface treated respectively.

Published: February 2023

The current study determines the sound levels observed in the engineering laboratories at the Institute of Chemical Engineering and Technology, University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. The objective of the study was to measure sound-levels of different engineering laboratories during specified time periods and compare them with OSHA standards. The sound-level parameters were investigated in five of the main laboratories. The time weighted average (TWA) and equivalent continuous sound level (Leq) values were observed at different times and compared with the OSHA standards. The TWA in all the laboratories was estimated to be 65.75 dBA which are within the international OSHA standards for noise however a considerable number of sound-levels in different laboratories were slightly higher than the accepted standards. More studies should be undertaken, as background noise and noise coming from the laboratory equipment can not only cause hearing problems but may also lead to miscommunication and difficulties in performing routine laboratory tasks.
Keywords: Noise, Sound-level, Polymer, OSHA, Standards, Laboratory, TWA, Leq.
Impact of water content on kinetics of Ca(OH)2 and alkyl benzene sulphonic acid neutralization reaction.
Authors: Javed Khaqan , Saleem Mahood , Durrani Abdullah Khan
Published: February 2023

The neutralization reaction of Ca(OH)2 and alkyl benzene sulphonic acid (ABS) is catalyzed by the water which was added about 5 to 10% by weight in start of the reaction. The operational cost for separation of water is high and so the water should be at its minimum level in the reaction system to minimize the operational cost for separation of water.Â  Kinetic study was completed at constant temperature 343 K and different initial water content (1.5, 4.4 and 8.7 weight percent) to determine the reaction kinetic parameters and impact of water content on the rate of reaction, conversion and reaction time for complete conversion. Integral method was used for data analysis of experimental data and to determine the rate equation from concentration time profiles. The neutralization reaction of Ca(OH)2 and ABS is the second order autocatalytic reaction and estimated values of rate constant was 0.0081 liter/mol.min at 343 K and initial water content 1.5 weight percent. The highest rate of reaction was 0.024 mol/lit.min at 343 K and 1.5 weight percent of initial water and about 99.5 % conversion was achieved in 220 min. On increasing the initial water content, the rate of reaction also increased, and almost complete conversion was achieved in 160 min and 120 min when initial water content was 4.4 and 8.7 weight percent respectively. The water content in the end of the reaction was 5.02, 7.86 and 12 weight percent determined when the initial water content was 1.5, 4.4 and 8.7 weight percent respectively charged in the start of the reaction. More than 4.4 weight percent of initial water content is not necessary because after that increment in the rate of reaction was not significant.

Published: February 2023

Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC), an electrochemical power generating technology, uses a precious metal Platinum (Pt) catalyst for Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR), which is a major hindrance in its commercialization. Using a non-precious group metal (NPGM) instead of Pt will reduces the cost of PEMFCs. Herein MnO2 carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were synthesized by impregnating the transition metal in large surface carbonaceous material CNTs by hydrothermal synthesis techniques. To enhance the catalytic reaction and increase the volumetric current density, the sample was pyrolyzed at 800 0C temperature under nitrogen atmosphere. During pyrolysis, the nitrogen was also doped in the framework of carbonaceous materials. The materials were then treated with acid, removing the unreacted metals and adding oxygen functional group to the CNT framework due to which the activity of the catalyst is amplified. The catalysts have been characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Catalyst activity has been calculated by Rotating Disc Electrode (RDE) experiment. The resulting materials are stronger in experimental conditions in alkaline environment and have high electro catalytic activity for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Linear Sweep Voltammetry (LSV) depicts a current density of - 4.0 mA/cm2 and over potential of -0.3V vs. Standard Calomel Electrode (SCE) in 0.1M KOH electrolyte. Rotating Disk Electrode (RDE) was conducted at 400, 800, 1200, and 1600 rpm. The results of MnO2CNT show a desirable future aspect in fuel cell commercialization.

Authors: Sadiq Muhammad , Humayun Muhammad , Naveed Amir , Arif Muhammad , Afridi Shaista , Naeem Khan Muhammad , Asif Muhammad
Published: February 2023

The properties of nickel metal electrodeposited in presence of organic additives in various concentrations were studied with respect to current efficiency of the bath. Films were electrodeposited in various pH and temperatures and for different time in order to get high current efficiency and uniform deposit. Locally available salt of sulfate is preferably used as source of nickel. Sodium sulfate is used to improve the conductivity of the bath and it is found that the rate of deposition linearly increases with the increase in concentration of the sodium sulfate in the electrolytic bath. Nickel chloride is primarily added to the bath not only to increase the corrosion of the anode but also to enhance the uniformity of the deposited layer. Surface structure analyses were carried out using scanning electron microscopy. Elemental analyses are done by energy dispersive x-rays. Reasons for variation in properties and structural characteristics of metal deposit are discussed.

Despite the rapid development of technologies, increasing data volumes, the development of the Internet and robotics, the spread of machine learning and artificial intelligence, there is something that a person manages much better than the most advanced machines and contributes to economic growth on the basis of sustainable development, improving the quality of life of the population while preserving natural potential. Everyone is born with this extraordinary ability called "creativity." Therefore, first of all, the state should be interested in the development of the creative sector of the economy and should support it in every possible way. Considering that the purpose of the article is to establish trends in the development of creative industries in Ukraine and determine their impact on the national economy. Based on the analysis of official statistical information, key trends are identified, the essence of which comes down to the rapid growth of the creative economy in most socio-economic indicators. It is proved that the Covid-19 pandemic has destabilized the stability of the trend of development of creative industries, however, the decline in indicators in the context of other types of economic activity is not significant, and they tend to recover quickly and steadily increase. The most vulnerable sectors of creative industries have been identified. The influence of creative industries on the national economy is argued. The prospects for further research are outlined, which consist in the activation of the development of performing arts (live music, theatre, dance, opera, circus, puppet theatre); literature, publishing and print media; architecture, since they have a great influence on the national economy due to their direct contact with the broad masses – the population and a close intersectoral connection with other industries.

Afterword: How to Turn Preferential Option for the Poor into Active Equity
Authors: Eustace Pere Eddy
Published: February 2023

Before meeting Paul Farmer, liberation theology was, for me, mostly a theoretical framework for understanding poverty and its vicious mechanisms. My praxis was limited. Upon joining Partners In Health/Zanmi Lasante, I encountered myself amidst the “Anawim of Yahweh.” I was asked to locate my own endeavors within the framework of structural violence and systemic poverty. My words were no longer enough; actions had to follow. How many times had I found myself in front of the elderly, or hungry children calling on me for food, shelter, and other basic needs? It was an embarrassing question to ask myself. In this chapter, I reflect on this lesson and others that I learned from my friend, Paul Farmer.

Foundations of Agro-Zoocoenology
Authors: Szelényi Gusztáv
Published: February 2023

Gusztáv Szelényi (1904–1982) was an eminent Hungarian ecologist and agricultural entomologist, who gained international recognition for his contribution to the taxonomy of Hymenoptera (Chalcidoidea, Proctotrupoidea). In this volume, his work, completed in 1956, and hitherto only available in Hungarian, is first published in English. Here Szelényi, reflecting on contemporary theories of animal communities (zoocoenoses), develops his own zoocoenological concept focusing on functional relationships. In doing this, he contests with another great figure in Hungarian zoology, János Balogh (1913–2002), who held that animal communities were spatially distinct and closely connected to plant communities (phytocoenoses). In the formulation of his zoocoenological model, Szelényi carefully distinguishes his concept and terms from those of Charles Elton, Orlando Park, Herbert Franz, Karl Friederichs, Wilhelm Kühnelt, Wolfgang Schwenke, Wolfgang Tischler, and other contemporary ecologists. Szelényi's model is a good example of the efforts of community ecologists working in the early to mid-20th century to develop conceptual frameworks that describe the structure of animal communities and predict their changes. This book is recommended for ecologists, entomologists and those interested in the history of ecology and the philosophy of science.
The role of metalloproteinases in the pathogenesis of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Authors: Vasilenok Nataliya , Olszewska Natalia , Olszewska Ewa
Published: February 2023

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is a common sleep-related breathing disorder. Untreated OSAS leads to significant health consequences, disturbed functioning in society, decreased efficiency in a workplace and increased risk of accidents at work and while driving. The main patomechanisms of OSAS development are hypoxia, oxidative stress and inflammatory process. Intermittent hypoxia in OSAS patients is associated with subsequent episodes of reoxygenation with simultaneous increase of reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species that stimulate secretion of extracellular metalloproteinases (MMPs). These compounds belong to a group of endogenous proteolytic enzymes produced by structural cells of extracellular matrix (ECM) and by cells of inflammatory response as well. ECMs are made of collagen proteins and glycoproteins. They form a scaffold for tissues of the soft palate. MMPs break down collagen molecules, which results in flaccidity of tissues, including tissues of the soft palate. The results of scientific studies have shown that expression, secretion, and activeness of MMPs increase during hypoxia. Thus metalloproteinases may be involved in the process of upper airway tissue damage during the intermittent hypoxia in OSAS.

In both, the community and hospitals, methicillin -resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) seems to be a major problem. Because protein-rich foods are thought to be a rich reservoir for this bacterium, 55 samples were randomly collected from various outlets in Baghdad between November 2021 and January 2022 and analyzed using standard isolation protocols of food microbiology with some modification processing by the authors to determine the presence of multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in yogurt and ice cream retailed in our markets. There were 28 (50.9%) isolates of S. aureus, of which 12 (42.9%) were confirmed as MRSA, 8 (47.1%) were raw yogurt derivatives, and 4 (36.4%) were ice cream derivatives. As a result, it is suggested that MRSA is present in local food goods in Baghdad marketplaces, and it is advised that these products be monitored frequently to ensure the safety of the public.
FIRST REPORT AND GENOME CHARACTERIZATION OF Pepper leaf curl Bangladesh virus INFECTING CHILLI IN INDIA

Published: February 2023

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) leaves showing curling symptoms were collected from Jalandhar region of Punjab, India, and a monopartite begomovirus Pepper leaf curl Bangladesh virus (PepLCBV) associated with Tomato leaf curl Bangladesh betasatellite (ToLCBB) was found to infect the crop. The viral DNA was amplified, cloned and sequenced. Sequencing results revealed that the virus genome and betasatellite consists of 2755 and 1361 nucleotides respectively. Infectious clones of the virus were constructed in binary vector pCAMBIA-1300 and Koch’s postulates were fulfilled. PepLCBV infectious clone caused minor curling in chilli plants when inoculated alone, but it produced typical leaf curl and stunting symptoms in combination with the ToLCBB infectious clone. Phylogenetic analysis with other closely related begomoviruses showed that the present isolate shares high identity with Pepper leaf curl Bangladesh virus. The present isolate grouped with other chilli isolates of begomoviruses reported from India (Pepper leaf curl Lahore virus, Chilli leaf curl Nagpur virus and Tomato leaf curl Liwa virus). Phylogenetic analysis of betasatellite showed its closest identity with Tomato leaf curl Bangladesh betasatellite. It grouped with other betasatellites reported from India (Tomato leaf curl betasatellite, Fenugreek leaf curl betasatellite and Chilli leaf curl betasatellite). Recombination analysis of the virus and betasatellite sequences suggested that PepLCBV might be a recombinant of Chilli leaf curl virus as a major parent and Chilli leaf curl Multan virus as a minor parent, whereas ToLCBB seemed to be a recombinant of Tomato leaf curl betasatellite as a major parent and Tomato leaf curl Ranchi betasatellite as a minor parent. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report of PepLCBV infecting chilli in India.
How time consuming are general practitioners’ home visits? Insights from a cross-sectional study in Switzerland
Authors: Fritz Rafael D. , Merlo Christoph , Essig Stefan
Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND: Worldwide, the number of home visits has been decreasing over past decades. Lack of time and long journeys have been reported to hinder general practitioners (GPs) from conducting home visits. In Switzerland also, home visits have declined. Time constraints in a busy GP practice could be one reason. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the time requirements of home visits in Switzerland.

METHODS: A one-year cross-sectional study involving GPs from the Swiss Sentinel Surveillance System (Sentinella) was conducted in 2019. GPs provided basic information on all home visits performed throughout the year and additionally detailed reports of up to 20 consecutive home visits. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were run to identify factors affecting journey and consultation duration.

RESULTS: In total, 95 GPs conducted 8489 home visits in Switzerland, 1139 of which have been characterised in detail. On average, GPs made 3.4 home visits per week. Average journey and consultation duration were 11.8 and 23.9 minutes, respectively. Prolonged consultations were provided by GPs working part-time (25.1 minutes), in group practice (24.9 minutes) or in urban regions (24.7 minutes). Rural environments and short journey to patient’s home were both found to lower the odds of performing a long consultation compared to a short consultation (odds ratio [OR] 0.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.16–0.44 and OR 0.60, 95% CI 0.46–0.77, respectively). Emergency visits (OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.21–4.01), out-of-hours appointments (OR 3.06, 95% CI 2.36–3.97) and day care involvement (OR 2.78, 95% CI 2.13–3.62) increased the odds of having a long consultation. Finally, patients in their 60s had markedly higher odds of receiving long consultations than patients in their 90s (OR 4.13, 95% CI 2.27–7.62), whereas lack of chronic conditions lowered the odds of a long consultation (OR 0.09, 95% CI 0.00–0.43).

CONCLUSION: GPs perform rather few but long home visits, especially for multimorbid patients. GPs working part-time, in group practice or in urban regions devote more time to home visits.
