Rice is considered as staple food that consumed in the form of steamed rice. Due to the emergency condition, like volcano eruption or flood, the availability and accessibility might be a serious problem. Therefore, a ready-to-eat rice is necessary. It would need a design processing condition to produce practical cooked rice in more economically packaging with different method.Normal packaging and vacuum packaging of cooked rice  followed by steaming for 60 minutes was conducted in this study. Two different storage temperatures include cold and room storage in day 0, 1, 4, and 7 was used to evaluate. The result showed that vacuum packaging gave better reduction in microbial parameter. However, panelist gave same preference in both normal and vacuum packaged cooked rice. Overall, cold stored-packaged cooked rice gave better quality than room stored-packaged cooked rice, especially in microbial parameter. Thus, combination of vacuum packaging and cold storing could be an alternative way to produce cooked rice which can be consumed in difficult condition.

Published: August 2018

Objective: Microtubule-interfering drugs are commonly used to treat malignant disorders owing to indispensable role of this cytoskeletal element. These drugs include paclitaxel, docetaxel, and the Vinca alkaloids; however, owing to their non-selective action and overpolymerizing effects, these chemotherapy drugs are confounded by complications with serious toxicity (particularly, peripheral neuropathies, gastrointestinal toxicity, myelosuppression, and immunosuppression) (by taxanes) or depolymerizing effects (by Vincas) on microtubules. Thus, there is urgent need to explore novel tubulin-binding agents that are significantly effective and comparatively less toxic compared to currently available drugs for the treatment of human cancer. The current study focuses fusion of two novel anticancer compounds with low toxicity, i.e., noscapine and triazole to generate a new ligand derivative.Methods: Using computer-aided drug designing approach and molecular docking, molecular interaction of these derivatives with αβ-tubulin heterodimer was confirmed and investigated by molecular docking along with dynamics simulation.Results: A greater affinity of the newly designed ligands for binding to tubulin was predicted. The predictive binding free energy (Gbind,pred) of these derivatives (ranging from −10.5178 to −16.8473 kcal/mol) based on linear interaction energy method with a surface generalized born continuum salvation model showed improved binding affinity with tubulin as compared to the lead compound. natural α-Noscapine (−5.505 kcal/mol). The binding energy of ligand determined using LigX, i.e., MM/GBVI was found to be −23.208 kcal/mol.Conclusion: We found that designed derivative compounds have better efficacy as compared noscapine and triazole.

Objective: A comparative study of anti-prostate agents to investigate the stereochemical influences on binding affinity by molecular docking.Methods: Structures of enantiomers (R and S stereoisomers) for known anti-prostate cancer (PCa) agents were drawn using ChemBioDraw 2D software. Thereafter, they were converted to 3D structures using the ChemBioDraw 3D software in which they were subjected to energy minimization using the MM2 method and then saved as PDB extension files which can be accessed using the ADT interface. AutoDock Vina (ADT) 1.5.6 software version was used for molecular docking study.Results: A total of 12 different anti-PCa agents were selected and drawn including well-known drug R-bicalutamide. All molecules showed the binding affinity with respect to the nature of stereochemistry. R-stereoisomers showed better interaction as well as binding affinity toward 1z95 (mutated androgen receptor protein involved in the progression of PCa) whereas their S-stereoisomers were found inferior in comparison.Conclusion: This study showed that CB1-R and R-bicalutamide (with R-stereochemistry) were better in binding affinity comparative to their counterpart CB1-S and S-Bicalutamide (with S-stereochemistry). All the selected anti-PCa agents were showing the effect of stereochemical center; therefore, we must choose the right kind of stereochemistry while planning to develop the newer anti-PCa agents.

Objective: The present work entails design and characterization of enteric coated mucoadhesive microcapsules loaded with amoxicillin trihydrate as a novel chronotherapeutic approaches for the treatment and management of bacterial infection.Methods: The microcapsules were prepared by solvent evaporation technique using ethyl cellulose (EC) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as rate-controlling and mucoadhesive polymers, followed by a triple coating with Eudragit L100 as enteric coating polymer. Box-Behnken statistical design (BBD) was applied for optimization of formulations containing EC, HPMCK100M and Eudragit L100 as factors for selected responses like entrapment efficiency, mucoadhesive property and drug release in 24 h. The optimized microcapsules were also characterized for particle size, drug content, swelling index, mucoadhesive strength, and in vivo antiulcer activity.Results: The optimized microcapsules exhibited good entrapment efficiency, particle size and mucoadhesive property. FT-IR studies revealed that there was no drug-polymer interaction. SEM studies revealed that microcapsules were non-aggregated, spherical in shape and smooth appearance. In vitro drug release data from microcapsules was fitted to different kinetic models to explain release profiles. The correlation coefficient (r2) value indicated that drug release followed Higuchi model. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed significant difference in the release of drug from all the prepared formulations at P < 0.05 level. Accelerated stability study of optimized formulation (F4) upto 6 month showed there was no change in drug content and release characteristics during storage.

Ensino Religioso e capitais culturais
Authors: Andrade Péricles , Ferreira Ismael De Vasconcelos
Published: August 2018

Este artigo tem como objetivo propor alternativas às difi culdades de implementação de uma agenda multicultural ao Ensino Religioso, sobretudo a partir das tensões entre os capitais culturais religiosos familiares e escolares. Para isso busca responder algumas questões: como é possível aos professores de Ensino Religioso instituir nos espaços escolares princípios multiculturais para estudantes cujos capitais culturais familiares são constituídos por uma linguagem religiosa naturalizada enquanto sistema simbólico com elementos de totalidade coerente e que absolutiza o relativo e o arbitrário? Como propor um Ensino Religioso para crianças e adolescentes com posse de capitais culturais familiares que transfiguram as instituições sociais em sobrenaturais, estruturam suas vidas a partir desses princípios e conferem às relações sociais função simbólica de conferir a ordem social seu caráter transcendente e inquestionável? Partimos do pressuposto de que o conceito de capital cultural de Pierre Bourdieu, aqui também entendido como consciência prévia que tem na religião sua principal fonte de produção de sentido, se constitui num recurso metodológico fundamental enquanto alternativa a resoluções parciais dessas questões.

Authors: Ramos Alejandra
Published: August 2018

El objetivo de este trabajo es abordar cómo se constituyó una etnohistoria referida a lo andino y de qué manera esto atravesó las relaciones entre países, regiones, disciplinas y temas de investigación. Me aproximo a la conformación de este campo analizando prácticas colectivas de investigación. Sitúo el surgimiento de la etnohistoria andina dentro de un conjunto de articulaciones entre antropología e historia. Exploro las formas que adquiere lo andino en las producciones académicas, sintetizando de qué manera se gestó una etnohistoria definida como andina y cuáles fueron las discusiones que se dieron dentro de este campo en torno a lo andino. Finalmente, discuto los desafíos que la puesta en tensión de lo andino plantea para los estudios etnohistóricos en las últimas décadas.

À luz da Estilística do som ou Fonoestilística (BALLY, 1941, 1951; GRAMMONT, 1975; GILI, 1971; MORIER, 1975; MARTINS, 2000), analisamos, neste trabalho, a letra da canção A triste partida, cantada por Luiz Gonzaga – conhecido também como o Rei do Baião. Nosso objetivo é descrever e refletir sobre os efeitos estilísticos/expressivos dos recursos fonético-fonológicos, como fonemas e figuras do som, presentes na letra da canção. Para tanto, observamos atentamente as estrofes que compõem a letra da canção e descrevemos alguns dos principais recursos estilísticos/expressivos que a compõem. As análises indicam a presença de recursos da linguagem estilística/expressiva tais como homeoteleuto, rimas, aliteração, assonância, alterações fonético-fonológicas em alguns vocábulos, dentre outros.
NOMINAIS NUS NO FRANCÊS: UM ESTUDO COMPARATIVO COM O PORTUGUÊS BRASILEIRO
Authors: Estivalet Gustavo Lopez
Published: August 2018

O presente trabalho tem como objetivo realizar uma análise dos nominais nus do francês em perspectiva comparativa com o português brasileiro. Destaca-se que o francês apresenta o artigo partitivo, além dos artigos determinado e indeterminado do português brasileiro. Por um lado, os artigos partitivos são justamente utilizados em expressões que não apresentam quantidades específicas, situações onde não há nenhum artigo no português brasileiro: je veux du pain ‘eu quero pão’. Por outro lado, sentenças em francês sem nenhum artigo são agramaticais: *je veux pain. Ainda foram analisadas outras situações contrastivas particulares do francês em relação ao português brasileiro, como a utilização de artigos antes de nomes próprios: *le Jean est mon ami ‘o João é meu amigo’ e a utilização de artigos neutros no francês: des fleurs sont jolies ‘flores são bonitas’. Enfim, a presente análise sugere que o artigo partitivo do francês funciona como uma marca objetiva dos nominais nus.

Games and artificial intelligence as the future of culture: an attempt to develop a theory of subjectivity

The goal of this paper is to use artificial intelligence research to acquire more extensive knowledge of ourselves. On the one hand, we provide a philosophical background to facilitate this, and on the other hand, we try to improve the social acceptance of artificial intelligence. We argue that the way to maintain and further develop human culture is through gaming and artificial intelligence. In support of this thesis we make an attempt to create a theory of subjectivity.

Inclusive Education at Primary Level: Reality or Phantasm
Authors: Khan Itfaq Khaliq , Behlol Malik Ghulam
Published: August 2018

The objectives of this study were to assess the impacts of Inclusive Education (IE) Project implemented in government schools of Islamabad and anticipate its practicability for public schools. Quantitative and qualitative methods were applied for data collection. Study instruments were structured interviews, unstructured focus group discussions, and questionnaire. The study revealed that Students with Disabilities (SWDs) carrypositive attitudes about their mainstreaming and promote friendships among them. The accessibility of school infrastructure normally addresses the needs of all students, but curriculum, equipment, teaching, learning aids, and assessment methods need to be adjusted. Principals in the schools have a positive attitude towards IE and suggested the government take more concrete measures toward mobilizing financial and technical resources for the training of teachers and providing them with technological support. Teachers involved in IE practices have a positive attitude for inclusion of SWDs and they proposed that it can be replicated in all public schools.
Pemberdayaan dan Penguatan Daya Saing Usaha dengan Penerapan Lean Six-Sigma Concept, Studi Kasus
Authors: Supriyanto Hari
Published: August 2018

Dinamika dan perkembangan ekonomi global dapat memberikan sinyal positif terhadap pentingnya peningkatan pemberdayaan dan daya saing produk di pasar. Dibutuhkan pemikiran untuk membangun keunggulan kompetitif, yang menjadi dasar bagi peningkatan produksi dan daya saing bisnis. Peningkatan produksi merupakan serangkaian aktifitas untuk membentuk produktifitas. Bila salah satu aktifitas produksi mengalami kegagalam maka akan berpengaruh pada kualitas dan kapasitas produksi. Kegagalan biasanya terindikasi dari waste/ pemborosan yang muncul di sepanjang value stream. Terdapat indikasi defect yang tinggi melebihi 10% di sortir dan packaging process. Permasalahan utama adalah adanya waste/ pemborosan yang mengakibatkan penurunan kualitas dan kapasitas produksi. Paper ini akan mengidentifikasi waste yang terjadi di proses produksi, mencari akar penyebab terjadinya waste, dan membangun alternatif solusi perbaikan.  Diperlukan pemikiran kreatif untuk dapat menaikkan efisiensi sumber daya dan daya saing bisnis di pasar. Metoda yang dipakai untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan adalah Lean six-sigma. Konsep ini menelusuri permasalahan inefisiensi dengan mencari non value added activity dari munculnya waste di sepanjang value stream.  Kemunculan waste selanjutnya diidentifikasi lebih dalam dengan root cause analisys (RCA) dan failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). Hasil akhir dari FMEA adalah risk priority number (RPN) yang menggambarkan prioritas atas mode resiko untuk dilakukan perbaikan. Dari hasil prioritas dirancang 3 alternatif perbaikan yaitu pelatihan operator, pembuatan SOP proses produksi, dan pelatihan karyawan quality control.   Dengan pendekatan net present value (NPV), maka diperoleh nilai NPV yang positif, artinya alternatif tersebut adalah layak untuk dijalankan. Alternatif ini meningkatkan nilai sigma dari sigma awal sebesar 2,80 menjadi 3,30. Kenaikan nilai sigma akan memberi indikasi adanya penurunan tingkat defect per million opportunities (DPMO), dan berakibat pada penurunan biaya sampai 20%.

Determining the choice of jobs or education choices is one of the tasks during the development of the senior high school. For that, high school students are required to understand and master the concepts of career maturity to be able to pick and choose the appropriate career direction. Career maturity is influenced by several factors, including internal locus of control and self-concept. Someone who has an internal locus of control has a perception that the measures themselves would produce a positive thing that makes their work more successful. The self-concept is considered critical to the success of life because when someone feels good about himself and his ability, to predict a person's life will be successful.
