Authors: Agarwal Arun , Choudhary Piyusha , Samota Rajesh K. , Sharma Aditi
Published: April 2022

26 years’ female patient attended triage with complaints of fever of almost 1-month duration. She was diagnosed as a case of Brucellosis outside. However, her fever persisted and she was finally diagnosed to have new onset adult-onset still’s disease (AOSD) with active macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) and multi organ failure. She met the diagnostic criteria for AOSD. She had high spiky fevers, hepatosplenomegaly, Lymphadenopathy, coagulopathy, anaemia with thrombocytopenia, hemophagocytosis, markedly elevated serum ferritin, low to absent natural killer (NK) cells, and remained unresponsive to steroids, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) protocol treatment. Interleukin-1 (IL1) inhibitors were not available. Interleukin-6 (IL6) blockers were not considered due to greater concerns about exacerbating bacterial infections with IL-6 blockade than with IL-1 blockade and much longer half-lives of the IL-6 inhibitors. We were also reluctant in using tocilizumab or sarilumab in new-onset disease where diagnostic uncertainty remains, as is often the case. She succumbed to her disease which had rapid fulminating course with multi organ failure. Her diagnostic and therapeutic challenges are discussed.

Authors: Amuasi Gideon K. , Alhassan Eliasu
Published: April 2022

In contemporary society marriage is seen as the foundation of all social relations and it has remained an important goal for youngsters to achieve in the future. Spouse selection over the years especially, among adults had received extensive attention in the academic tertiary institutions in Ghana, yet little is known precisely about the internal determining factors influencing spouse selection for marriage especially among tertiary students. This current study seek to unearth the internal factors that informs individual choice for marriage among students in the public universities in Ghana.  Stimulus-Value-Role (SVR) theory anchored the study and also a simultaneous mixed design was used for the study. The public Universities were sampled Ninety-three respondents were interviewed. Both primary and secondary data were sourced and descriptive statistics was used for the analyses. The findings showed that more than 93% of the students (both sexes) consider issues such as intelligence, emotional stability, dependable attitude, maturity and religion of their prospective spouses as important in the selection process. Agreeableness which is one of the extraversion dimensions and talks about how friendly and compassionate a person is was identified as the most effective element considered in the selection process. The study concluded that students varied in the exact factors they anticipated, desiring potential mates with compatibility factors truly want to find spouses who exemplified what they preferred. The study recommended that the counsellors of the tertiary institutions should endeavour to organize marriage seminars for students to educate them on the need to be cautious of the desired factors. The desired factors predict significantly on students’ choices of a spouse for marriage.
Impact of Professional Development Programmes on Teachers’ Knowledge and Academic Performance of Senior High School Students in Ghana
Authors: Osei-Owusu Benedict
Published: April 2022

To improve educational outcomes through improvements in teaching standards, the Ministry of Education has stepped up efforts aimed at providing continuous and lifelong learning among Ghanaian teachers. However, the impact of the recent emphasis on a comprehensive framework for the professional development of teachers on teaching and learning outcomes has not been adequately studied. Despite the growing body of literature suggesting that professional development and professional knowledge may be associated with student outcomes, these relationships remain an open question. This study, therefore, sought to determine the impact of teachers’ professional development on academic performance in senior high schools in Ghana and the mediating role of teachers’ professional knowledge. A survey was conducted, and valid questionnaires were retrieved from 4,102 teachers in selected public senior high schools from four regions (including 77 districts and 97 public senior high schools) across the Southern, Middle, and Northern belts of Ghana. The results of the study showed that professional development has a significant positive relationship with professional knowledge (γ = 0.26, p < 0.001). Also, professional development and professional knowledge were positively related to academic performance (γ = 0.08, p < 0.001) and (γ = 0.04, p < 0.001) respectively. Finally, the results of the study showed that professional knowledge partially mediated the relationship between professional development and academic performance. The study, therefore, concluded that professional development leads to improvements in the academic performance of students through improvements in teachers’ professional knowledge and other characteristics of teachers that were not accounted for by this study. Among other things, the study recommends that teachers should be encouraged to engage in diverse professional development activities that respond to the inadequacies in their professional competencies.

Published: April 2022

In January 2020, scenes online of pain and suffering in Chinese hospitals heralded a pandemic that would negatively impact not just people’s health, but would hinder efforts by organizations worldwide, including the operations of almost all universities. In March 2020, colleges and universities moved learning to virtual delivery and canceled on-campus activities with little or no advance warning due to the threat posed by the coronavirus. Students and faculty alike had to adapt to the new reality of forced distance education, isolation and an uncertain future in the wake of COVID-19. As might be expected, student learning took a hit in many ways, but the pandemic also brought about changes in students’ learning behaviors. This article investigates the impact of a stay-at-home order in one state on the reading and writing activities of students due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The researchers surveyed over 600 students at a large, regional university in the Southeastern United States to specifically examine how the onset of the pandemic impacted how much more they engaged in reading and writing activities due to the changes ushered in, both in their college classes and in their lives, due to COVID-19.

Authors: Vourdoubas John
Published: April 2022

Hospitals consume large amounts of energy in their daily operations. The necessity to comply with the global targets for climate change mitigation requires the decrease in their energy and fossil fuels consumption as well as reduction of their CO2 emissions. The aims of the current work are to study the possibilities of using several clean and low carbon emission technologies for heat, cooling and electricity generation in hospitals. The use of solar-PV panels, CHP systems and heat pumps has been examined as well as the possibility of financing these environmentally friendly energy technologies with external funding. Our results indicate that the abovementioned sustainable energy technologies are mature, reliable and cost-efficient providing heat, cooling and electricity in hospitals having also positive economic, social and environmental impacts. Their combined use with other low or zero carbon emission technologies could help in the transformation of hospital buildings to nearly zero energy buildings minimizing or zeroing their carbon footprint due to energy use. Various financial tools have been developed so far utilizing mainly private funds for financing clean energy investments in hospitals with external resources. Present work is important since it indicates that the previously mentioned sustainable energy technologies can be used in hospitals assisting in their transformation to low carbon emission organizations since in coming decades the mitigation of climate change in our societies will be necessary and crucial.

Published: April 2022

Dengue virus is an arthropod-borne infectious agent that causes dengue disease. The virus spreads by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitos. Due to the neglegent care given to the infection, the vectors as well as the virus have expanded globally and millions have already been affected by dengue infection as regards reports by ECDC, CDC and WHO. Dengue virus infection have been alleviated by erratic treatments since there is no precise formulation against it. However, there are plenteous clinical risks alongside using the drugs, this leaves human with no other choices than to reason for other alternative means of treatment to decrease the deleterious effects to minimal level. To introduce newer candidate anti-dengue pharmaceutical agent with minimal/ or no therapeutic lapses, botanical treatments have highly been recognized. Medicinal plants have been observed to be of health benefit in dengue virus infection through promoting immunocompetence, supplying pharmacological aids such as prophylactic effects, decrease viral amplification and lowering morbid condition. The potential anti-dengue activity of medicinal plants have been exemplified in the literature as the principal interest. We tried to find the existing factors behind virucidal activity of plants in the context of anti-dengue virus and the consulted publications indicated that certain flavonoids (Kaempferol-3-Orutinoside, Rutin, Hyperoside, Epicatechin Resveratrol, Quercetin, Emodin, Emodin-8-beta-D-glucoe and Polydatin), Tannins (Galic acid, Tannic acids), Alkaloids (Artesonic Acid, Homoegonol, Myristicin), Fatty acids (Methyldodecanoic acid, Dodecanoic acid, Tridecanoic acid, 12-methyl-methyl-esters, n-hexadecanoic acid), Terpenoids (Beta-asarone, Acoric acid, Andrographolide, Caryophyllene, Cyclododocane) and many others could be the major antiviral factors. This study will assist in giving better insights on anti-dengue activity of medicinal plants divulging dengue virus reliable combaters eventually. However, it is needful to conduct heightened critical clinical studies in this vein for proper verification.
Reducing the Covariant Dirac Equation for the Electron or Proton Cores to the Gradients of a Single Wavefunction
Authors: Daywitt William C.
Published: April 2022

The particle- and antiparticle-equations for the electron or proton cores are coupled Dirac equations, eachof which contains two wavefunctions. Without solving for the wavwfunctions explicitly, it is possible to decouple and solve the equations exactly and completely for the electron and proton cores in terms of a single wavefunctions’ gradients. 

Calculations repeatedly demonstrate that the reduced Planck constant represents a particle or antiparticle spin coefficient.
The Metapicture of Post-Pandemic
Authors: Susanti Anastasia J. A.
Published: April 2022

Amid the continuing pandemic, depicting a post-pandemic world is a challenging task. There is no theory about time that can exactly predict the future. Almost thirty years ago, W.J.T. Mitchell, a theorist of media and literature, introduced Metapicture as pictures that are capable of picturing a concept, subject, movement, ideal, or event. Metapicture is a realm where pictures can reveal themselves and its surrounding. This research aims to provide the metapicture of the post-pandemic world. This study is interdisciplinary research that involves iconology, critical social theory, and philosophy. The author found two metapictures of the post-pandemic life, i.e, the emergence of new social crises and the establishment of new global solidarity.

Published: April 2022

For over two years, home learning during a pandemic has been experienced by almost all schools globally. Learning during a pandemic impacts not only teaching and learning in schools but also the load of learning materials that teachers must convey to students. Online learning becomes the choice as almost all teachers are encouraged to work from home, with students also having to learn from home. No one knows how long it will last and when it will end. Facts show that during a pandemic, not all students have the ability or capability to take online lessons. Additionally, teachers are also burdened with paying for the internet connection to teach, while basic needs such as food and clothing during the pandemic stay unfulfilled due to economic difficulties from the pandemic. In this study, a study was carried out to determine the level of learning effectiveness during a pandemic. Over 200 high school students became respondents in the study, and 50 teachers gave their opinions through questionnaires and interviews. The researchers used three analyses to identify the required strategic steps: performance analysis, GAP analysis, and the Analysis of Standards-Importance-Advice-Performance (ASIAP). The results were quite surprising, showing that most students want to return to school and follow normal learning, mainly due to internet connectivity issues and feeling that the non-interactive online learning materials are more difficult to understand. Another concern is that only a small number of students can concentrate well in the online learning process, while the remaining learning activities are mixed between school activities, home activities, and other unavoidable activities.

Published: April 2022

Learning the Holy Qur’an is obligatory for both Muslim men and women since it is a perfect guide for human life in this world and hereafter. However, it is surprising that the Muslim society is far from the Holy Qur’an due to an increased desire for worldly life. It is possible to identify, especially among university students, that their connection or involvement with the Holy Qur’an is becoming spiritually retrograde. Therefore, the study employed a convergent mixed-method research design to identify the involvement of university students with the Holy Qur’an. A total of 315 university students voluntarily participated in this study by filling self-Administrated questionnaires, conducting unstructured interviews and telephone conversations. Moreover, the secondary data was collected from various sources of information such as books, journal Articles, web-publications. The collected data was analysed by way of descriptive method. findings of the study were presented in the form of tables, charts, sentences and texts. This study concludes with the argument that the university students were lack of involvement with the Holy Qur’an, and they are rarely involved in learning and memorizing the Holy Qur’an. Moreover, the numerous factors are there as obstacles to learning the Holy Qur’an and the majority have realized that they will not be able to respond to the inquiry in this regard on the day of judgment.

Wpływ wapnowania i nawożenia różnymi formami azotu na plonowanie oraz wykorzystanie fosforu przez rośliny jęczmienia jarego
Authors: Bednarek Wiesław , Reszka Renata
Published: April 2022

W dwuletnim doświadczeniu wazonowym oceniano możliwość zwiększenia wykorzystania fosforu przez jęczmień jary pod wpływem wapnowania oraz nawożenia siarczanem amonu lub saletrą wapniową. Czynnikami doświadczalnymi było wapnowanie, nawożenie dwoma formami azotu stosowane w dwóch dawkach oraz nawożenie fosforem na dwóch poziomach. Rośliną testową był jęczmień jary, który zbierano w fazie dojrzałości pełnej. Wapnowanie oraz nawożenie saletrą wapniową przyczyniło się do największego wzrostu plonu rośliny testowej. Zawartość fosforu w biomasie jęczmienia zmniejszyła się pod wpływem wapnowania. Niezależnie od pH gleby, zastosowanie formy amonowej azotu prowadziło do zwiększenia zawartości badanego składnika w roślinie. Użycie zwiększonej dawki fosforu spowodowało wzrost koncentracji tego pierwiastka. Wykorzystanie analizowanego składnika z superfosfatu było większe na glebie wapnowanej niż kwaśnej. Rośliny uprawiane na glebie kwaśnej i nawożone saletrą wapniową wykorzystywały fosfor lepiej niż nawożone siarczanem amonu. Odmienną sytuację zaobserwowano w przypadku gleby wapnowanej.
Kiełkowanie zbóż w warunkach sąsiedztwa ziarniaków Avena fatua L. i Festuca rubra L. – aspekt allelopatyczny
Authors: MAJCHRZAK LESZEK
Published: April 2022

The present studies were aimed at determining the allopathic interspecies interactions of weed grains from wild oats (Avena fatua L.) and red fescue (Festuca rubra L.) on winter wheat and winter rye germination and seedling growth. Preliminary  studies on inter-crop influences were done in a laboratory using developing dishes. Those tests allowed us to determine the allelopathic effect of the tested grain weed species on the germinating ability of seeds of other grain crop species as well as on the length of root, coleoptiles length, fresh and air dry matter of roots and coleoptiles. The results showed that the neighborhood of wild oats (Avena fatua L.) and red fescue (Festuca rubra L.) decrease germinating ability of winter wheat by about 4% as compared to the pure stand. There was no inhibiting influence of the neighboring red fescue on wheat germinating ability. There was observed a negative influence of the tested weed species on winter rye germinating ability but a significant difference was only observed between control dishes and treatment with red fescue. The research showed that the neighbourhood of wild oats inhibited the length of coleoptile and root seeds of winter wheat and their fresh and air dry matter stronger than red fescue. Winter rye was more sensitive to the neighbourhood of red fescue than wild oats.

The aim of the experiment was to assess the influence of temperatures (5/10oC and 10/20oC) and light (12h of light or total darkness) on germination of 8 wild oat (Avena fatua L.) varieties, comparing to oats cv. Sprinter. Germinative energy (after 5 days), germination rate (after 10 days) and germination rate index (after 21 days) were measured. Also, length of coleoptile and radicle and dry mass of one seedling after 21 days were measured. Wild oat varieties emerged more intensively in higher temperature. At the beginning, light promoted but then inhibited germination of seeds. At higher temperature and in darkness wild oat developed longer coleoptile and radicle. Variety E (Avena fatua subsp. fatua (L.) var. acidophila Kieć.), which occurs rarely on crop-fields, germinated significantly poorly, comparing to other varieties.

Published: April 2022

Midwest crop production is dominated by two summer annual crops grown in rotation, viz., corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max L.). Winter oilseed crops, such as pennycress (Thlaspi arvense L.), can provide ecosystem and economic benefits when added to the corn–soybean rotation. However, adding a new crop adds risks, such as increased pest pressure. The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate population development of three soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines) biotypes on three pennycress genotypes and susceptible soybean and (ii) determine whether SCN inoculation level influenced plant biomass. SCN population density and biomass were determined after 60 d in the greenhouse. At the inoculation level of 2,000 eggs/100 cm3 soil, the average egg density for the three pennycress genotypes was 1,959 eggs/100 cm3 soil, lower than that for the susceptible soybean ‘Sturdy’ (9,601 eggs/100 cm3 soil). At the inoculation level of 20,000 eggs/100 cm3 soil, the average egg density for the three pennycress genotypes was 6,668 eggs/100 cm3 soil, lower than that for ‘Sturdy’ (40,740 eggs/100 cm3 soil). The inoculation level did not affect plant biomass. Pennycress is an alternative host to SCN under greenhouse conditions but is a less suitable host than soybean.

Green Open Space (RTH) in urban areas has value for the needs and needs of parks and recreation. The allocation of twenty percent of public green open space from the urban area of Sigli City as stipulated in the Pidie Regency Qanun Number 5 of 2014 concerning the Pidie Regency Spatial Plan for 2014-2034 has not yet been achieved. This study aims to examine the factors that influence land acquisition and how land acquisition models are appropriate for public green space in the city of Sigli. This research uses quantitative methods. The data obtained in the form of ordinal data and nominal dichotomos. The data was analyzed by logistic regression methods and Focused Group Discussion (FGD). The model of the logistic regression equation formed is: "Ln" ("p" / "1-p") "= -8,407 + 0,894" "X" _ "1" "+ 2,192" "X" _ "2" "+ 0,346" "X" _ "3" "+ 0.712" "X" _ "4" + "0.144" "X" _ "5" - "1,072" "X" _6- "0.526" "X" _ "7" The results of logistic regression analysis obtained two factors that most influence on land acquisition for green space in the city of Sigli, namely the SKPK (X2) program and local wisdom (X6). Factors influencing the results of the logistic regression analysis are then discussed in the FGD. The FGD came to the conclusion that the land acquisition strategy for green space in the City of Sigli cannot rely solely on the budget on the SKPK program. Land acquisition for green space can also be done using village funds and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds.

Irrigation infrastructure does not last long without being supported by continuous maintenance activities as the age of water building grows in irrigation networks. To maintain a sustainable irrigation system an irrigation management system is needed starting from the main building, the primary network to the secondary network. Irrigation Performance is an indicator in order to describe an irrigation system management, performance appraisal according to Minister of Public Works Regulation Number 12/PRT/M/2015 concerning Exploitation and Maintenance of Irrigation Networks is carried out on 6 (six) parameters, namely : Physical Infrastructure, Planting Productivity, Facilities Support, Personnel Organization, Documentation and Water User Farmers Association. The objective of this study was to conduct a performance assessment of D.I Jeuram through observing the condition of irrigation networks and analyzing the irrigation network condition data from the implementing agency D.I Jeuram and information from the P3A as a reference for the performance of D.I Jeuram. The results of this study show that the performance of the Jeuram Irrigation Area in terms of physical and non-physical aspects has a performance index of 69.36%, so that the performance of the Jeuram Irrigation Area falls into the less performance category and needs attention, so efforts to improve performance in Irrigation Areas are suggested. Jeuram, namely the aspect of physical infrastructure consists of routine maintenance activities from the main building to the final secondary canal (B.Jr.30), periodic maintenance includes replacement of the operating board and measuring ruler on the weir, replacement of missing door parts in weir drains, bag draining periodic mud, replacement of 16 door units at Jeuram Kanan and 6 door units at Jeuram Kiri, heavy rehabilitation in buildings tapping B.Jr.9, B.Jr.13, BU.1 and BU.2, and constructing drain inlets in sections carrier channel that functions as a waster. Efforts to improve the performance of aspects of non-physical infrastructure consist of providing adequate facilities for offices, housing and OM implementation warehouses, providing complete irrigation Area data at branch offices and conducting routine meetings related to OM implementation and cropping patterns. With this, the value of the performance of the irrigation system is obtained with a reliable, and which will later become a reference for the management of irrigation networks as a whole.

The EU scheme for the state aid rules in the air transport sector during
the Covid-19 crisis
Authors: AKSAMOVIC Dubravka , SIMUNOVIC Lidija
Published: April 2022

Paper provides for a systematic overview of the EU scheme for the State aid rules
applicable to the air transport sector during Covid-19 crisis. The COVID-19 outbreak is
having a major impact on European air transport sector. In order to help air transport
undertakings in Europe to overcome the financial troubles, to preserve jobs, to secure supply
of essential food, medicals or other items, etc., the EU Commission adopted set of legislative
measures enabling the EU Commission and Member States to authorise hundreds of State
aid measures, not only to air transport sector, but also to other economic sectors, which were
mostly affected by the pandemic. Since in normal circumstances member states State aid to
national undertakings are subject to extremely stringent EU competition law regime, the
intention of this paper is, firstly, to analyse to what extent and under what conditions that
has changed during pandemic. Secondly, the intention of the paper is to explore to what
extent and for what purposes different Member States granted State aid to their airline
industries with special respect to the French, Austrian, Swedish and Croatian State aid
policy. Lastly, the authors will raise question whether massive capital injection to air
transport companies being made only by certain, wealthier, member states are going, in long
term, to cause negative impacts on the competition in the air transport sector in the internal
market
The need for a harmonious interpretation of the rules applicable
to international contracts
Authors: MIMOSO Maria João , AZEVEDO Liz Corrêa de
Published: April 2022

International trade, as of result of globalization and the consequent exponential
growth in the operations volume, has brought a movement of reflection on the disciplinary
rules of international trade relations. In this context and considering the significant
divergences between the legal regimes of the different States, the instruments of
standardization and harmonization of the international contracts’ disciplinary rules assume
special importance. Notwithstanding the existence of normative instruments that guide the
formation and execution of the signed agreements, it is imperative that the hermeneutic
activity of such texts is also harmonious, under penalty of distorting the purpose for which
they were conceived. Through the analytical method, we will approach the unifying rules and
principles of the process of interpreting contracts in the international scenario. Initially, we
will present the principle that guides the entire process of interpreting international
contracts, pointing out the fundamental principles in conducting the interpreter's activity.

This study aimed to produce color indicator labels to determine changes in the physical and chemical quality of mangoes such as weight loss, total dissolved solids, vitamin C content during the ripening process at room temperature (±26oC), and determine the optimal storage time for viable mangoes. consumed. Measurements were made on Manalagi mango. The method used was a 2 factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with variations of ammonium molybdate and chitosan. Each mango group was observed twice a day during storage at room temperature until the 10th day. The results showed that ammonium molybdate, potassium permanganate and chitosan could produce color indicator labels but did not change color during storage. The decrease in fruit quality during storage can be seen from the increasing weight loss percentage value, this is evidenced by the highest average SBK percentage value of S4 of 15.147% on the 10th day of storage. The increase in weight loss was caused by respiration and transpiration events in mangoes. The value of total dissolved solids increased until the peak of maturity occurred on the 4th day with the highest value of 11.50 oBrix and the lowest of 9.50 oBrix and then decreasing. The value of vitamin C levels increased until the 4th day of storage with the highest vitamin C content value of 34.32 mg/100g at P1 and the lowest being 24.64 mg/100g. It concluded that the optimal storage time for mangoes that are still fit for consumption is up to the 4th day of storage.

Aims: The aim of this research study is to show that the use of synthetic surfactant from bagasse is Environmentally Friendly Policies. Environmental management is an important step that needs to be taken on this immediate moment. Various human and industrial activities surely have affected the environment. Environmental management should include a number of groups from different varieties such as academics, policy makers, non-governmental organizations, corporations’ employees, government’s employees and related multidisciplinary groups. Methodology and Results: Environmental management will produce an ecological process and shapes industrial ecology which consists of four components namely; production, consumption, waste/by-products and raw materials. Bagasse as one of industrial solid wastes involved in environmental management will also produce ecological process. Bagasse which is produced from sugarcane processing can be further reprocessed into SLS surfactant that is useful for oil companies as injection fluid on reservoirs to improve oil recovery level. Conclusion, significance and impact of study: Environmental management can be applied between two industries that have mutualism symbiosis relationship through secondary production. Waste minimization can be achieved through bagasse processing. Sugarcane bagasse reprocessing into SLS surfactant is a sustainable program that supports sustainable material management effort. The action to reprocess natural waste into a valuable economical material can also alter human behavior into a more environmental friendly type of behavior.

Aim: This study aims to determine whether the application of eco enzyme affects the industrial waste activated sludge degradation and to compare the effects of eco enzyme made from oranges and tomatoes. Methodology and results: The experiments were done on the laboratory scale for 12 days by applying 10% of eco enzyme in the sludge samples. It showed both tomatoes and oranges eco enzymes can decrease the pH from 6.9 to 4.7 compared to control which was stable at 6.9. The reduction of COD, TSS, and VSS by tomato eco enzyme applications were 61%, 39% 41% respectively compared to by orange eco enzyme application that showed a higher reduction of 78%, 45%, 46% respectively. The control samples also show the reduction of COD, TSS, and VSS by 21%, 23%, 30% respectively. The reduction of organic content in the control samples of sludge (8.9%) was higher than the samples with eco enzyme (3.5%). Conclusion, significance, and impact study: The results showed that eco enzyme application significant statistically affected reduction of pH, COD, organic content, but not significant statistically on TSS and VSS reductions. Comparing the application of orange and tomatoes eco enzyme did not show the significant different treatment.

Published: April 2022

Part of Surabaya Industrial Estate Rungkut (SIER) Area is planned to become Central Business District (CBD) in accordance with the direction of the Surabaya City Government. The land use is changed due to the decrease of carrying capacity of the infrastructure in the environment around SIER, caused by density increase since Middle East Ring Road (MERR) was opened in 2012. In addition, some of the areas that became CBD areas are part of the PT SIER area (97.4 Ha). Aim: This study was aimed to determine alternative land functions. Methodology and results: Since CBD is generally dominated by commercial properties, this research focuses on commercial property development programs carried out within the scope of the Highest and Best Use (HBU) Study. This research was conducted through location, site, and market analysis, completed with recommendation for property type in SIER location. Conclusion, significance and impact study: Based on macro market analysis, supply of retail, hotel and apartment property is increasing, while supply of office is decreasing. The results of this study are the best and highest value proposals for the development of commercial property functions (apartments, offices, shopping areas, and hotels), so that the investment is not high risk. In addition, the result can be used as a policy orientation for all interested parties, especially PT SIER in the development of CBD in its area, related to the development stage that is adjusted to the interests and market conditions.
