Hydrocarbon reserves are one of the main points that are very important in the sustainability of the productivity of an oil and gas field. This important point is greatly influenced by several parameters that can be obtained by various measurements and analysis. One of the most influential parameters in the analyses of the amount of hydrocarbon reserves in a reservoir is the water saturation value. The water saturation parameter will also be greatly influenced by the electrical parameters of the fluid-containing rock in the reservoir. Sometimes the electrical parameters of this rock, in this case resistivity becomes one of the benchmark parameters, whether the zone or reservoir has potential or is interesting to be developed or produced. However, there are several reservoirs or zones that experience low resistivity effects which will give an initial indication that the zones or reservoirs are not attractive or have no effect on development. In this Z field, there is a zone that experiences low resistivity effects, making this zone unattractive for production. So to be able to make these zones attractive for production, an identification analysis was carried out on Zones A and B in this Z field to determine the type or type of fluid from the two zones. The initial analysis was carried out petrographically from rock sample incisions at certain depths in Zones A and B so that it is known that the cause of the low resistivity effect in the two zones is the presence of pyrite minerals and illite clay which are the main causes of the low resistivity effect. Furthermore, an analysis of the identification of fluid types was carried out using the double apparent resistivity method with the results obtained that in Zones A and B there are 2 types of fluids, namely hydrocarbons and water with a depth limit of 3650 ft in Zone A and 4558 ft in Zone B. By knowing the type of fluid, the hydrocarbons contained in these two zones should be able to increase interest in the production of these zones as a potential zone for production, but it is necessary to perforate at a depth range indicated by the hydrocarbon fluid and carry out initial production tests to prove the results of the analysis in this study.

Quorum sensing in emulsion droplet swarms driven by a surfactant competition system.
Authors: de Visser Pieter J. , Karagrigoriou Dimitrios , Nguindjel Anne-Déborah C. , Korevaar Peter A.
Published: October 2023

Quorum sensing enables unicellular organisms to probe their population density and perform behaviour that exclusively occurs above a critical density. We establish quorum sensing in emulsion droplet swarms that float at a water surface and cluster above a critical density. Our design involves competition between 1) a surface tension gradient that is generated upon release of a surfactant from the oil droplets, and thereby drives their mutual repulsion, and 2) release of a surfactant precursor from the droplets, that forms a strong imine surfactant which suppresses the surface tension gradient and thereby causes droplet clustering upon capillary attraction. The production of the imine-surfactant depends on the population density of the droplets releasing the precursor, so that the clustering only occurs above a critical population density. We exploit the pH-dependence of the imine-surfactant formation to trigger quorum sensing upon a base stimulus, establish dynamic droplet swarms that cluster and spread upon spatiotemporally varying acid and base conditions, and couple the clustering of two droplet subpopulations to a chemical reaction that generates of a fluorescent signal. We foresee that quorum sensing enables control mechanisms in droplet-based systems that display collective responses in contexts of e.g. sensing, optics or dynamic controlled droplet-reactors.
Understanding the formation mechanism of drug-polymer inclusion complex by structure elucidation and theoretical calculation
Authors: Lu Ming , Liu Binbin , Li Changrui , Chen Ziqiao , Ou Xiao , Li Shuting , Li Ao , Chen Pin
Published: October 2023

Drug-polymer inclusion complex (IC) has been considered a novel solid state of drug for properties modification. However, the formation mechanism is poorly understood. This work aims to explore the molecular mechanism that determines the dependence of carbamazepine (CBZ) and griseofulvin (GSF) channel structures on guest polymers. With the aid of microdroplet melt crystallization, we successfully elucidated the single-crystal structures of the two groups of ICs, which enables theoretical calculation. Structural analysis, DFT calculation, and theoretical simulation together indicated that CBZ molecules can self-assemble into stable channel structures benefiting from the special mortise-tenon joints and strong π…π interactions, while GSF channels cannot be sufficiently supported by the weak Cl…O and C-H…π intermolecular interactions and thus the insertion of guest molecules is essential for structure stabilization.This answers the question of why CBZ channels can independently exist in the absence of guest polymers, but GSF channels cannot. Moreover, our results verify that microdroplet melt crystallization can grow single crystals of IC with sufficient quality and size, thus solving the bottleneck of structure elucidation. These findings will encourage further research on the formation mechanism of drug-polymer IC that facilitates the prediction and application of this novel solid form in drug development.

Electrochemical research often requires stringent combinations of experimental parameters that are demanding to manually locate. Recent advances in automated instrumentation and machine-learning algorithms unlock the possibility for accelerated studies of electrochemical fundamentals via high-throughput, online decision-making. Here we report an autonomous electrochemical platform that implements an adaptive, closed-loop workflow for mechanistic investigation of molecular electrochemistry. As a proof-of-concept, this platform autonomously identifies and investigates an EC mechanism, an interfacial electron transfer (E step) followed by a solution reaction (C step), for cobalt tetraphenylporphyrin exposed to a library of organohalide electrophiles. The generally applicable workflow accurately discerns the EC mechanism’s presence amid negative controls and outliers, adaptively designs desired experimental conditions, and quantitatively extracts kinetic information of the C step spanning over 7 orders of magnitude, from which mechanistic insights into oxidative addition pathways are gained. This work opens opportunities for autonomous mechanistic discoveries in self-driving electrochemistry laboratories without manual intervention.

Published: October 2023

We present CONQUEST, the first GPU-accelerated conformer search algorithm which uses the Spin- Component-Scaled MP2 level-of-theory. CONQUEST’s global minima outperform competing methods on the GMTKN55 data set, and its top-5 local minima are of a higher quality than those previously reported in lit- erature. Additionally, for medium-sized ligands, CON- QUEST is more accurate than competing approaches. Finally, due its GPU acceleration, CONQUEST can find structures within comparable times to semi-empirical methods and can scale to multiple nodes further reduc- ing runtime.

Published: October 2023

The ability to control and manipulate semiconductor/bio interfaces is key to enable biological nanofabrication pathways and new bioelectronic devices. Conventional surface functionalization strategies like self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) provide a limited level of customization for such interfaces. Polymer brushes offer a wider range of chemistries, but choices that maintain compatibility with both lithographic patterning and biological systems are limited. Here we developed a class of bioinspired, sequence-defined polymers, polypeptoids, as tailored polymer brushes for surface modification of semiconductor substrates. Polypeptoids with a terminal hydroxyl (–OH) group are designed and synthesized to enable efficient melt grafting onto the native oxide layer of Si substrates, forming ~1 nm thick monolayers. By programming monomer chemistry, the polypeptoid brush platform enables efficient and versatile surface modification in surface energy, passivation to preferential attachment of biomolecules, and specific binding of biomolecules. The polypeptoid brush monolayers are compatible with electron-beam lithographic patterning and maintain their chemical characteristics after exposure to the harsh conditions of the lithographic patterning workflow. Highly precise, well-defined chemical contrast nanopatterns consisting of two polymer brushes are designed and generated with a passivation background and active binding regions to achieve selective immobilization of biomacromolecules including DNA origami and streptavidin at length scales defined by electron-beam lithography. This surface modification strategy with bioinspired, sequence-defined polypeptoid brushes enables monomer- level control over surface properties with a large parameter space of monomer chemistry and sequence, and therefore is a highly versatile platform to precisely engineer semiconductor/bio interfaces for bioelectronics applications.
Implications of Bank Equity Price Declines for Inflation
Authors: Hajdini Ina
Published: October 2023

This Economic Commentary examines the relationship between bank equity price index returns and inflation in advanced economies. While large declines in bank equity price indices are generally followed by declines in the ratio of bank credit to GDP, a measure of credit supply, and economic activity as measured by GDP, they have essentially no effect on inflation. These findings suggest that the collapse of several regional banks in early 2023 would not, on its own, put downward pressure on inflation.

Correlation between HbA1c and lipid profile in diabetes: a primary health concern in Aseer, Saudi Arabia
Authors: Riaz Fatima , Nimesh Archana
Published: October 2023

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) presently affects 537 million adults globally. It has a high prevalence in the Saudi population (31.6%), ranking 2nd highest in the Middle East and 7th worldwide. T2DM is characterized by insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, causing the glycation of hemoglobin, plasma proteins, tissue proteins, and their receptors. The high insulinemic state leads to dyslipidemia. These biochemical alterations can cause complications like atherosclerosis, coronary artery disease, angina, myocardial infarctions, and hypertension. Considering the high prevalence of diabetes in the Saudi population and the lack of studies conducted at primary health care (PHC) centers in Saudi Arabia, this study was done to investigate the status of diabetes control in T2DM patients and propose appropriate measures to prevent the development of future complications.
Method: This cross-sectional study recruited 191 known T2DM patients presenting at the PHC center in the Al Qabil locality of Aseer province of Saudi Arabia. The patient's demographic and glycemic and lipid profile data were recorded and statistically analyzed.
Results: T2DM was more prevalent in males. T2DM patients were found to be obese, and 52% had coexisting hypertension. Patients had deranged glycemic profiles and dyslipidemia despite taking hypoglycemic agents. Hyperglycemia and dyslipidemia were significantly higher in people with diabetes having HbA1c > 7. HbA1c is correlated with dyslipidemia, and dyslipidemia is linked considerably with obesity.
Conclusion: T2DM patients must be regularly followed up to ensure drug compliance, explained about foreseen medical complications, and motivated to adopt lifestyle modification measures to control their weight, BP, and blood glucose.
Study of correlations of COVID-19 dynamics with social-economic factors
Authors: Zakharova Alisа , Kizilova Natalya M.
Published: October 2023

Studying the current state of the dynamics of the COVID-19 spread is based on the statistical analysis of time series for the number of infected persons, recovered or died patients, the number of tests performed and other data available from open sources. The mathematical models of infectious diseases have been investigated. Sixty countries from Europe, Asia, Africa, North and South America and Oceania have been selected for the statistical analysis. Statistically significant dependences between the time series have been identified by means of correlation analysis, and their functional approximations have been obtained. The indicators that are the most informative for assessing the state of the epidemic and forecasting its further dynamics have been identified. It is shown that those indicators depend on a number of factors specific to a given country and, therefore, they should be calculated separately for each wave and phase of the pandemic. It has been confirmed that the averaged 14-day values for the new daily cases is a more reliable indicator of COVID-19 dynamics than the 1-day values but the approximation coefficients are country-specific. The correlation of the indicators with a number of socio-economic factors, among which the Human Development Index (HDI), tourism activity and social distance are the most significant, has been shown. The synergy of other factors that exhibited no significant effect separately should be noticed. A mathematical model of the disease spread dynamics as a system of ordinary differential equations (adapted SIR-model) is proposed and the criterion of asymptotic stability of the system, which is an indicator of the need for lockdown, is calculated. Identification of the parameters for the model of current phase of the epidemic by the analysis of statistical data allows assessing changes in the criterion of stability over time, predicting and controlling the dynamics of the epidemic.

Abstract. This research is oriented toward the role of registers in mowindahako custom. This qualitative research is focused on the lexis and speech of mowindahako from a Sociolinguistics perspective. The data collected and carried out through direct observations during customs be held and interviews with the participants in open-ended question perspective. The data were analyzed using BUL/Sharing Elements technique, coding according to the research object variables and thematic analysis, and ethnoscience analysis. The results showed that its register is divided into 2 types of expression, both are verbal expression in high formalistic poetic diglossia (wua-wua ndulura) and non-lingual (non-verbal: the things, body movements of participants in the mombesara process, and 4 traditional participants). Register used acts as a code or signal for the participants in the interaction process. This is an abstract and concrete realization of metafunction whose discourse provides an understanding of the purpose and meaning of mowindahako which has a philosophical function. This function is seen through the ideational, participants' ideational, logical, and experiential concepts al concept is based on the discourse in the mombesara process and the interpersonal traditional participants. Mowindahako's register construction ultimately showed the world what Tolakinese society is and how they are by through complex verbal and non-verbal metafunctions and stratification, axiological cognition, and their mindset and outlook on life. Keywords: Register, Diglossia, Metafunctions, Mowindahako, Mombesara

Published: October 2023

This study aims to examine the various roles of metaphor in the oral literature of Pepali Babad Banyumasan. This study was qualitative and descriptive by its nature, meaning that all data are not in the form of numbers. It instead focused on the quality of verbal forms or utterances All data were retrieved from written excerpts of the prose. All data were retrieved from written excerpts of the prose. These data were further analyzed using a referential identity method and a reflective introspective method. The study found four functions of metaphor in Pepali Babad Banyumasan, such as to mention unique characteristics, to describe the place of origin, to substitute, and to concretize human experience. Oral literature of Banyumasan Javanese, especially the one discussed in the present study, is worth investigating. Pepaliis originated from Raden Baribin, Wira Utama, Yudanegara II, Yudanegara III, and others. Behind the fact that literary work is something inanimate, lies within Pepali is enigma and meaning to look at. The findings in this study are belief in magical and occult things as a way of life for taking attitudes for the ancient Javanese people, particularly the Banyumasan people that was used as a form of expression to concretize the representation of experiences in the past, then make it a message so that people are more vigilant and break bad luck in the present by reflecting on past experiences. In this study, it is clear that the ancient Javanese people believed in magical things as a form of human communication to get blessing in managing government. The ancient Javanese people of Banyumasan also believed that the name was also a sign to represent the image of the community group. In this case the name that appears to represent the aristocratic class of society (people who are destined to become leaders) by giving him a family name taken from the name of an animal, namely goose.
HEGEMONY OF SOCIAL IRREGULARIT (CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS OF PRESIDENT JOKO WIDODO'S SPEECH RELATED TO THE PROHIBITION OF HOUSES OF WORSHIP)
Authors: Rahman Abdul
Published: October 2023

This research aims to uncover the social irregularities behind President Joko Widodo's speech on 17/01/2023 entitled "Remarks by President Joko Widodo at the Opening of the National Coordination Meeting of Regional Heads and Forkopimda throughout Indonesia in 2023" related to the prohibition of the establishment of houses of worship. By using the qualitative model of Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis method to uncover social injustice sourced from primary data websites, videos, and literature. Using data collection techniques of free listening and note-taking techniques. The researcher is an instrument of planning, implementing data collection, data analysis, interpretation, and reporting findings. The results of the lexical pragmatic text analysis found social irregularities of rejection and destruction of houses of worship which represent that the applicable constitution can not be implemented, disobeyed, disobeyed, denied, trivialized, and the existence of resistance to the constitution. It was found that there were obstacles to handling social irregularities in the form of consensus (agreement) of community groups in the form of counter-hegemony and the application of regulations in the realization of contradictions between the 1945 Constitution and PBM Number 9 and 8 of 2006. This shows that there are social irregularities that are deliberately perpetuated so that the apparatus and instruments of state power work. So it is necessary to apply intellectual hegemony to apply the constitution, ideology and power. So it concludes that the government to overcome social irregularities must use total hegemony (integral) without violence, using the constitution and the state ideology apparatus, so that power can regulate the order of worship and religion in Indonesia.

G.E. MOORE DÜŞÜNCESİ IŞIĞINDA: ÖZNENİN İNANCINDAN BAĞIMSIZ NESNEL BİR DOĞRULUK VAR MIDIR?
Authors: KUŞ MUMCU Müge
Published: October 2023

Analitik felsefenin kurucularından biri olan G.E.Moore, felsefe yapmanın bir çözümleme etkinliği olduğundan hareket ederek felsefi problemlerin ancak analitik yöntem ve gündelik dil çerçevesinde çözüme kavuşabileceğini düşünmektedir. O, kuşkucu ve öznel idealist felsefenin “dış dünya ile zihin arasındaki kapatılamaz bir boşluktan dolayı nesnel varlıkların bilinemeyeceği” tezine karşı dış dünya ve nesnel varlıkların bilinebilirliğini haklı çıkarmak ve nesnel gerçekliği nasıl bilebileceğimizi göstermek için dilsel çözümleme yöntemine başvurmuştur. Bu yüzden çalışmamızın ilk bölümünde G.E.Moore’un önermenin neliği ve işlevine yönelik analizlerine yer verilecek, doğru ve yanlış önerme arasındaki fark inanç bağlamında gözler önüne serilecektir. Sonrasında ise önermenin inanç, onda dile gelen olgu ve doğrulukla olan ilişkisine bakılarak; çalışmanın asıl amacı olan “Acaba öznenin bilincinden (inancından) bağımsız nesnel bir doğruluk var mıdır?” sorusuna G.E.Moore düşüncesi ışığında cevap aranacaktır.
