Published: April 2018

Logam berat dalam tubuh manusia biasanya terakumulasi pada beberapa organ tubuh seperti ginjal, hati, kuku, jaringan adiposa, dan rambut. Analisis kandungan logam berat pada darah ataupun urin tidak akurat. Logam berat yangberada pada darah atau urine tidak bertahan lama dan dapat segera dikeluarkan melalui siklus metabolism tubuh sedangkan analisis logam berat melalui rambutlebih akurat. Hal ini disebabkan logam berat lebih bertahan lama di rambut. Jumlah logam dalam rambut berkorelasi dengan jumlah logam yang diabsorpsi oleh tubuh. Oleh karena itu, rambut dapat dipakai sebagai biopsi material. Telah dilakukan uji metode destruksi basah untuk penentuan kadar besi (Fe) dalam rambut. Destruksi basah menggunakan campuran HNO3 dan HClO4. Analisis kandungan besi (Fe) hasil destruksi dilakukan dengan Spectrophotometer Serapan Atom (SSA). Untuk menentukan metode destruksi yang lebih valid dilakukan validasi metode yang meliputi uji akurasi, presisi, dan linearitas serta penentuan LoD dan LoQ.

The effect of KOH concentration on soap has been done using the basic ingredients of Virgin Coconut Oil. This soap is a product development of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO). Soaps are made from oil reactions and alkaline solutions on a laboratory scale through a cold process using KOH as the alkaline solution. The KOH concentration used was 30% w / v, 40% w / v, 50% w / v, 60% w / v and 70% w / v as the independent variable and as the fixed variable was ice agitation time for 30 min with temperature used 28 0C. The quality of soap is analyzed by determining free fatty acids, free alkali, unabsorbed fat, moisture content, and pelicans oil. From this study it turns out that the greater the concentration of KOH used to produce soap that the harder the texture. The quality of the resulting soap in accordance with the SNI for the free alkali is in the addition of KOH 40% b /v 0.13% free alkali in accordance with the maximum SNI of 0.14%, free fatty acid at the addition of 50% KOH 6.5 according to SNI 2.5 - 7.5, unabsorbed fat at 40% KOH addition 2.42 according to the maximum SNI of 2.5, the pelicans oil at the addition of 50% negative KOH in accordance with the SNI shall not have pelicans oil. It can be concluded that the addition of KOH concentration resulting in good soap and in accordance with SNI is between 40% and 50%

FEDERALISMO FISCAL, EQUALIZAÇÃO DE RENDA INSTITUCIONAL E A POLÍTICA NACIONAL DE DESENVOLVIMENTO REGIONAL (PNDR): UMA ANÁLISE COM DADOS EM PAINEL
Authors: Paiva Claudio Cesar , Quaglio Gislaine De Miranda , Fonseca Gleison Lopes
Published: April 2018

O artigo propõe uma reflexão sobre a complexidade que envolve a má distribuição de renda institucional no Brasil, através da análise dos desequilíbrios da renda institucional e da gestão fiscal dos entes subnacionais. A disparidade inter e intrarregional de renda é elevada e os mecanismos de equalização são pouco efetivos para equacionar o vertical gap e o horizontal gap, o que mostra a necessidade de aperfeiçoamento permanente das instituições responsáveis pelas relações e políticas federativas. A ideia é de que a visão de planejamento territorial adotada pela Política Nacional de Desenvolvimento regional (PNDR) para reduzir os desequilíbrios regionais deveria considerar o enfrentamento dos hiatos e das fragilidades fiscais dos entes federativos. Os resultados encontrados podem indicar uma possível existência de heterogeneidade entre os grupos, porém, o foco das análises seguiu para a constatação de uma heterogeneidade interna a cada grupo. Neste sentido, o trabalho permitiu, sobretudo, evidenciar os problemas e as precariedades do sistema fiscal brasileiro e das políticas fiscais municipais, podendo subsidiar uma agenda de propostas ligadas às políticas, como a PNDR, de mudanças legislativas e institucionais na temática regional.
A POLÍTICA DE QUANTITATIVE EASING ADOTADA PELO FED ALTERA A VOLATILIDADE DOS ATIVOS NO BRASIL?
Authors: Almeida Helberte João França , Giovanini Adilson , Saath Kleverton Clovis de Oliveira , Biage Milton
Published: April 2018

A crise financeira de 2008 resultou em um quadro de taxas de juros de curto prazo próximas de zero e levou vários países a adotarem políticas monetárias não convencionais com a finalidade de estabilizar o sistema financeiro e sustentar o nível da atividade econômica. Embora o objetivo do programa de compra de títulos, denominado como quantitative easing (QE), iniciado pelo Federal Reserve (Banco Central dos Estados Unidos), fosse estimular a atividade econômica interna, seu efeito externalidade foi sentido pelos países emergentes que observaram uma elevação no fluxo de capital externo, um aumento na procura por ativos e uma apreciação da moeda nacional. Dado este contexto, o presente estudo avalia se o QE afetou a volatilidade do índice Ibovespa, do câmbio, do riscopaís, da taxa de juros dos Estados Unidos e do índice de renda fixa. Para tanto, utiliza-se de técnicas de estudos de eventos e modelos autorregressivos e generalizados autorregressivos heteroscedásticos para verificar o comportamento das variáveis consideradas. Os resultados encontrados indicam que o QE alterou a volatilidade dos ativos em alguns períodos analisados e seu início/fim modificou os retornos dos ativos.

A EMERGÊNCIA DA PERIFERIA NO SISTEMA MUNDIAL: DA CONFERÊNCIA DE BANDUNG À CONFERÊNCIA DE BUENOS AIRES (1955-1978)
Authors: Danilevicz Pereira Analúcia , Medeiros Klei
Published: April 2018

This article aims to analyze the initial stage of development of South-South relations and the emergence of the periphery, taking into account that South-South Cooperation, as known today, gave its first steps in the context of the Cold War, with the decolonization of Afro-Asiatic countries and the formation of the first arrangements connecting the global periphery, such as the Bandung Conference and the creation of the Non-Aligned Movement, the G-77 and of the UNCTAD. In this initial phase, the goal was to guarantee decolonization and non-alignment. Since the decade of 1970, countries from Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa began to be increasingly involved with the agenda of the Third World, in an attempt to foment political, economic and technical cooperation among developing countries. South-South Cooperation became progressively institutionalized within the UN, in particular due to the Buenos Aires Conference in 1978.

A EMERGÊNCIA DA LATERAL PÓS-VOCÁLICA EM INGLÊS-L2 DE FALANTES DO PORTUGUÊS BRASILEIRO
Authors: Silva Thaïs Cristofaro , Rodrigues Jamila Viegas
Published: April 2018

Este artigo analisa a emergência da lateral pós-vocálica em inglês-L2 de falantes do Português Brasileiro (PB). Considerando-se que a lateral pós-vocálica não ocorre em PB-L1, a sua ocorrência em L2 envolve a emergência desta categoria. A perspectiva teórica assumida é a dos Sistemas Adaptativos Complexos e Dinâmicos (ALBANO, 2012; BYBEE, 2001, 2010; ELLIS; ROBINSON, 2008, LARSEN-FREEMAN, 1997). Os resultados indicam que o tempo de exposição à L2 e o indivíduo (aprendiz) são fatores estatisticamente significativos para a emergência da lateral pós-vocálica em inglês-L2 de falantes brasileiros. Por outro lado, o item lexical não apresentou resultados estatisticamente significativos. Os resultados obtidos estão em consonância com a perspectiva que sugere que a emergência segmental, e mais especificamente da lateral pós-vocálica em inglês-L2, reflete a auto-organização dinâmica e complexa do sistema fonológico do aprendiz através do tempo, e com as especificidades do indivíduo na construção do conhecimento gramatical.
UMA FERRAMENTA PARA O ENSINO DO ACENTO PRIMÁRIO DO PB PARA FALANTES NATIVOS DO CRIOULO HAITIANO
Authors: Silva Adelaide Hercília Pescatori
Published: April 2018

Este trabalho apresenta uma ferramenta elaborada para o ensino de pronúncia do português brasileiro (PB) a falantes de crioulo haitiano. O aspecto de pronúncia focalizado é o acento primário de palavras no PB. Escolheu-se esse aspecto porque o acento primário é distintivo em PB: ele carrega diferenças de sentido e diferenças morfológicas, como a de tempo verbal. Porém, o crioulo haitiano é uma língua de acento previsível, a exemplo do francês, e por isso os haitianos, aprendizes de PB, tendem a transferir o padrão acentual do crioulo para a língua de acolhimento. O argumento norteador deste estudo é o de que a instrução explícita sobre a localização do acento primário, fornecida através da ferramenta aqui exposta, pode ajudar os haitianos a produzir o acento primário das palavras do PB onde é esperado. Um teste envolvendo dois grupos – um exposto à ferramenta e outro não - parece confirmar sua eficiência.

Resumo: Este artigo analisa alguns autorretratos de Vivian Maier enquanto construção de cena, espécie de ficção, recorrendo a Barthes, e ao conceito de mise en abyme, conforme o escritor francês André Gide. Em seus autorretratos produzidos com o espelho, a presença da fotógrafa é quase sempre posta em cena desdobrada, rebatida em perspectivas múltiplas, conduzindo-nos a questionar a própria condição do autorretrato, da imagem de si para si mesmo e para o olho do outro. Estas imagens nos mostram a mise en abyme, possibilitada pelo jogo de espelho ou de espelhamento que Vivian Maier explora.Palavras-chave: Vivian Maier; Autorretrato; Imagem.Abstract: This article analyzes some self-portraits of Vivian Maier while construction of scene, species of fiction, appealing to Barthes, and to the concept of mise en abyme, according to the French writer André Gide.

Se evaluó la calidad de los artículos seleccionados mediante el cuestionario CONSORT, obteniendo puntuaciones que oscilaron entre 9 y 18 sobre una puntuación máxima de 25.Conclusiones: Debido a la falta de artículos coetáneos que abarquen tanto la inmunoterapia como la administración de la misma fuera del servicio hospitalario, así como la presencia de numerosos trabajos que no se pueden enmarcar dentro del grupo de estudios de alta evidencia, mediante este análisis se puede concluir que la terapia actual precisa de nuevos ensayos e investigaciones que permitan encontrar formas más innovadoras de inmunología para poder ser aplicadas a un rango más amplio de patologías inmunitarias, y de esta forma poder generalizarlas a grupos de distintas edades.
Comparative effect of organic fertilizers on growth and yield of long cayenne pepper in two agro-ecological zones of Nigeria
Authors: Akinfasoye Akindele , Fagbayide Julius , Ajayi Oluwakayode , Ogunniyan Dotun
Published: April 2018

The objective of this study was to improve the growth and yield of long
cayenne pepper using 10 organic fertilizers. Organic fertilizers including
tithonia compost (TC), poultry manure from a battery cage (PMB), poultry
manure from dip-litter (PMD), pacesetter organic fertilizer (POF), sunshine
organic fertilizer (SOF), ayeye organic fertilizer (AOF), brewery waste (BW),
cow dung (CD), oil palm bunch ash (OPBA), cocoa pod husk (CPH) were collected
at some specific locations in Oyo, Osun and Ondo States of Nigeria. The
experiment was a 2?11 factorial experiment fitted into a randomized complete
block design consisting of 10 organic fertilizers and the control at two
locations (Ibadan and Ogbomoso) in 2008. The dosage of 130 kg N ha-1 of each
of organic fertilizer was applied one week before transplanting. Six-week-old
pepper seedlings were transplanted into a plot of 3m?2m (6m2) with one
seedling per hill. Growth and yield data collected were subjected to analysis
of variance (ANOVA) and the least significant difference (LSD) at p<0.05 was
used to compare the means. The results of the experiment reveal that the
overall macronutrient content of the ten evaluated organic fertilizer sources
was presented in the following order: SOF>OPBA=CPH>AOF>TC>POF>PMB=CD>BW>PMD.
All the organic fertilizers more significantly enhanced the growth and yield
of pepper than the control. The best three organic fertilizers at both
locations in terms of fruit length were TC=SOF=PM. Fruit size at Ogbomoso was
relatively bigger than that of Ibadan. The total fruit yield was highest
under TC, SOF, PM and PMD at both locations. In conclusion, variations
existed in the nutrient composition of the organic fertilizer. Meanwhile, TC,
PMB, PMD and SOF were significantly similar in their ability to improve
pepper yield. Moreover, PMB, TC and SOF significantly enhanced the vegetative
growth of pepper.
Gender and economic inequalities: Trends in feminist economics and sociology at the centre and semi-periphery of the global knowledge production system
Authors: Babovic Marija
Published: April 2018

Main objective of this article is to provide an overview of the state of art
in the feminist perspectives in the study of gender economic inequalities.
The feminist perspectives in sociology and then economics (late 1960s and
1970s), brought radical change in the study of intersection between economic
and gender inequalities (in case of economy) and gender, economic
inequalities and class (in case of sociology). During this stage instigated
by the rise of Second Wave Feminism, fundamental critics of capitalist
societies, that generate and reproduce gender inequalities through economic
sphere was developed, with simultaneous critics of key social disciplines
that were omitting to see the role of gender inequalities for the
reproduction of the system and existing power relations. The aim of this
article is to provide overview of contemporary state of art in the feminist
economics and feminist sociology in regard to gender economic inequalities.
The analysis is focused on thematic and geographical scope of articles
published in two international journals with high impact: ?Feminist
Economics? and ?Gender and Society?. The aim is to obtain insights in
significance ascribed to economic inequalities within the broader studies of
gender, economy and society. This is initial stage of broader research
focused on differences in knowledge production on gender economic
inequalities among the scholars from center, semi-periphery and periphery of
the global system, which is more focused on substantive aspects -
interpretation of causes, forms and consequences of gender economic
inequalities in societies with different position in the world capitalist
system and at the same time in the global system of knowledge production.
The second line of the analysis includes insights in the state of art in
Serbia, based on two leading sociological journals: ?Sociology? and
?Sociological Review?, and two leading economic journals: ?Economic Annals?
and ?Economic Ideas and Practice?. The analysis is conducted on the journal
volumes published during 2013-2017.
Feminist criticism of the concept of resilience: Transformation of the subversive into the normative
Authors: Pavicevic Olivera , Bulatovic Aleksandra
Published: April 2018

The concept of resilience originated in engineering and environmental systems
theories. Resilience entered humanities relatively recently as a new
theoretical and practical approach to addressing challenges and risks in
both macro and micro-communities. The concept of resilience is being
criticized for theoretical fluidity behind it, difficulties related to its
empirical verification and for being ideologically embedded in the
neoliberal framework of global capitalism. Subject of this paper is an
overview of a sharper critique of the concept that is coming from feminist
perspective. In perspective of feminist criticism, the concept of resilience
is perceived as an element of hegemony in neoliberal theory that purports
deregulation and in particular market deregulation. While at first glance
the concept of resistance denies identity policies and social exclusion
deriving from it, in fact it absorbs harm inflicted by neoliberal economic
and social restructuring. Resilience allows induced damage to be recycled
given that new identity frames and aesthetics become created. Gender status
is no longer associated with visible gender manifestation - it rather
appears as it is shaped by economic and social background. Resilience
becomes new neoliberal female ideal feature that only enhances vitality of
white supremacist patriarchy.
Progressivist gender-based activism as a means of social antagonism in Hungary through two case studies
Authors: Feró Dalma , Bajusz Orsolya
Published: April 2018

The endorsing of ?progressive? issues is embedded in the imaginary of the
East-West slope. It is especially issues defined more in terms of
recognition than redistribution and framed in terms of individual tolerance
that have become emphatic signifiers of ?progress?, ?Western?/?European?
values, and thus the civilizational and moral hierarchy of the East-West
slope. Aligning oneself with these issues (such as LGBT rights, liberal
anti-racism, liberal feminism) on the periphery of Europe is a means of
distinguishing oneself against the rest of the ?backward? country or region.
As a strategy of raising one?s social status it is a tool of social
antagonism. We look at two case studies from Hungary to analyse how
progressivist narratives are enmeshed in self-colonization. We conduct
discourse analysis to examine how self-appointed advocates activate the
West-East hierarchy as they claim to morally elevate society, and how this
progressivist narrative feeds a populist mobilization that increasingly uses
?gender? as a symbol for corrupting foreign forces. We argue that
representing social issues such as women?s disadvantages as a matter of
tolerance rather than as a deep-seated, structural, material issue serves as
a mutual legitimating mechanism for the progressivist actors who accomplish
it and the region?s position in the global world order.

Education and research in the field of feminism and gender theory and
practice remain marginal in academia in the countries on the semi-periphery,
another indicator of the measure of gender inequality across the different
segments of society. This implies that university professors and researchers,
male and female alike, are confronted with a patriarchal power structure
before they are given the right to act and select freely themes for their
research projects. These are only the first obstacles in their path that need
to be overcome, while the difficulty with which academic courses are
organised and administered and research is done, if one is to fully adhere to
the feminist/gender perspective, is indicative of how deeply rooted such
obstructive behaviour is. The first part of the paper examines the situation
in regard to gender education at universities by focusing on two issues:
determining the purpose and source of learning in courses, and the
relationship between the traditional discipline classification framework and
interdisciplinarity. The second part of the paper addresses the problems
researchers are faced with when their application of classical feminist
theories crosses paths with a peculiar experience of how gender and gender
relations are understood/constructed locally. Adhering to standpoint
epistemology, the paper briefly attempts to point out the specificity of the
approach to gender in the academic context in the countries on the
semi-periphery, equally distant from both the Western and the postcolonial
understading of gender.
Women, memory, and history: Autobiographics as a way of confronting the past and a means of creating the future
Authors: Tomic Svetlana
Published: April 2018

In this paper, I use interdisciplinary research methods of literary theory,
feminist theories, new historicism, psychology, memory studies, and social
engagement studies in order to point at two groups of problems: 1.
Untruthful memory of history and unreliable academic knowledge which
transferred into all levels of national education and spread
internationally; 2. epistemicide, memoricide and matricide or systematic
destruction of knowledge, memory and heritage of important women from the
past (sometimes executed by women themselves). Autobiographics of important
women from the second half of the 19th century create contra memory to
official representations of the past. As a self representational discourse,
it can be one of the main ways of futurizing a vital feminist connection
with education and the society?s progress which happened at the time.

Eucalyptus pellita F. Muell is one of the promising species for pulp production in Indonesia.  Tree breeding activities of this species have been developed to investigate a high productivity of Eucalypt through the selection of genetically improved individual trees. Vegetative propagation technique is an important tool needed to multiple the trees. Veneer Grafting is one of the recommended propagation techniques. The objective of the research is to study the compatibility of several E. Pellita clones that are produced from plus trees. Implemented by  Completely Randomized Design (CRD), the research was used 36 E. pellita families and 6 hibryds of  E. pellita x E. brassiana as the treatment with 4 replications. The result showed that the clone of E. pellita was significantly different effecting growth variation of clone adaptability, shoot number, shoot length, and shoot diameter.  Clone adaptability was range from 0  -  100%. Shoot number was around 1-3 stems. Shoot length was range 0.17 cm – 17.82 cm and the shoot diameter was 0.10 mm – 2.27 mm in range. The clone (number 19) from Keru To Nata WP Papua New Guinea was invented as the best in adaptability (100%) during the observation period, while clone (number 33) was the best growth performance in  shoot number, shoot diameter and shoot length.Key words : Growth, Eucalyptus pellita, veneer grafting

The relation between human status in a group and the level of his envy
Authors:   Saratov State University, Usova Natalia Vladimirovna
Published: April 2018

The paper examines the research findings relating to the relationship of the sociometric status of the personality in a group, group sociometric indices, and trends in the behavior of a person in a group with a level of personal jealousy. The research shows that envy as a stable personality trait is not correlated with the actor’s place in the system of interpersonal relations in a group, cannot define its sociometric status and express attractiveness/unattractiveness of the actor’s personality to other members of a group. The study proves that envy and group cohesion can lead to each other or alternatively determine the development of professional achievements, intelligence, and interpersonal communication with the opposite sex. The author concludes that the envy of the personality, which inherently shares independence and accepts the struggle, has a motivating and stimulating effect on it determining its further development and the achievement of better results. The external characteristics of independence and acceptance of struggle allow the personality to offset the negative emotional state associated with envy.
