In the modern era, technology has played an inevitable role Population of India is almost equivalent to 17.7% of the world population. On the basis of arable land area, India is placed second largest in the world. Even though India is the second largest producer of rice, biggest problems faced by farmers in our country is lack of knowledge in the technological development. The number of smart phone users will be more than 800 million by the end of 2022. Under this circumstance, Internet of Things (IoTs) has a major role in the agriculture field for productivity by monitoring day to day progress of the field. IoT aims to take internet connectivity to another level by connecting multiple devices at a time to the internet, thereby facilitating man to machine and machine to machine interactions. With the agricultural apps installed in the smart phone, farmers can realize the progress of the crop as well as the schemes and subsidies announced by the authorities.

Published: February 2023

Cybersickness is a drawback of virtual reality (VR), which also affects the cognitive and motor skills of the users. The Simulator Sickness Questionnaire (SSQ), and its variant, the Virtual Reality Sickness Questionnaire (VRSQ) are two tools that measure cybersickness. However, both tools suffer from important limitations, which raises concerns about their suitability. Two versions of the Cybersickness in VR Questionnaire (CSQ-VR), a paper-and-pencil and a 3D –VR version, were developed. Validation and comparison of CSQ-VR against SSQ and VRSQ were performed. Thirty-nine participants were exposed to 3 rides with linear and angular accelerations in VR. Assessments of cognitive and psychomotor skills were performed at baseline and after each ride. The validity of both versions of CSQ_VR was confirmed. Notably, CSQ-VR demonstrated substantially better internal consistency than both SSQ and VRSQ. Also, CSQ-VR scores had significantly better psychometric properties in detecting a temporary decline in performance due to cybersickness. Pupil size was a significant predictor of cybersickness intensity. In conclusion, the CSQ-VR is a valid assessment of cybersickness, with superior psychometric properties to SSQ and VRSQ. The CSQ-VR enables the assessment of cybersickness during VR exposure, and it benefits from examining pupil size, a biomarker of cybersickness.  
Modeling Extracellular Vesicles-Mediated Interactions of Cells in the Tumor Microenvironment
Authors: Zoofaghari Mohammad , Pappalardo Fabrizio , Damrath Martin , Ilangko Balasingham
Published: February 2023

Interactions of cells via the extracellular vesicles (EVs), manipulate various actions including cancer initiation and progression, inflammation, anti-tumor signaling and cells migration, proliferation and apoptosis in the tumor microenvironment. EVs as the external stimulus can activate or inhibit some receptor pathways in a way that amplify or attenuate a kind of particle release at target cells. This also could be carried out in a biological feedback-loop where the transmitter is affected by the induced release initiated by the target cell due to the EVs received from the donor cell, to create a bilateral process. In this paper, at first we derive the frequency response of internalization function in the framework of a unilateral communication link. This solution is adapted to a closed-loop system to find the frequency response of a bilateral system. The cells overall release as the combination of the natural release and the induced release are reported at the end of this paper and the results are compared in terms of cells distance and reaction rates of EVs on the cell membranes.

Published: February 2023

This paper proposes a framework consisting of a forepart precursor and the Scenario Fan Problem (SFP) for long-term hydropower scheduling, using shape-based feature extraction. The domain feature of the forepart precursor is scenario decomposition and scenario selection. Then, the selected scenarios will be the input of SFP, based on the feature of the new inflow scenario. Besides, we compared the performance of 5 clustering methods to generate the boundary variation on a hydro-thermal test case, using in-sample and out-of-sample analysis. Our results show that the proposed framework can significantly reduce the computational time of SFP by around 90%. The results also reveal that the shape-based method performs better regarding the boundary variation generation of the reservoir levels. In addition, this study demonstrates the possibility of performing long-term hydropower scheduling at a disaggregated level with detailed topology information and a higher time resolution. This provides more opportunities to deal with the penetration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in long-term hydropower scheduling and take into account more uncertainties in other variable renewable energy sources.

The present work determined the nutritional quality of Piptocoma discolor and Cratylia argentea as non-timber forest products used in animal feed in the Amazonian foothills in Caquetá province - Colombia, where the grasses B. decumbens and B. humidicola predominate in the pastures.A random selection of 50 farms was made, identifying that in each of them the shrub species Piptocoma discolor, Cratylia argentea and areas of grasslands for grazing where Brachiarias decumbens and B. humidicola predominate. One sample per species was taken from each farm. The samples were subjected to chemical analysis (CP, ADF, NDF, ADL, cellulose, hemicellulose, EE, ash and IVDDM, OMD, TDN, DE, ME). An analysis of variance was performed for each of the variables evaluated using a linear mixed model, considering the species factor as a fixed effect and municipality was considered a random effect. The model assumptions were evaluated by graphical inspection of residual. A multivariate synthesis to see the interrelation between variables and species was performed using a biplot graphic obtained by principal component analysis.   C. argentea and P. discolor presented higher CP levels than the grasses in the pastures (17.7; 13.1; and 6.15%, respectively) with good levels of energy intake, confirming that C. argentea and P. discolor are non-timber forest resources with forage potential.

Published: February 2023

This study aims to describe and analyze how the Go Digital application is used to carry out population administration service policies and the factors that help and hurt population administration services through the Go Digital application at the Probolinggo District Population and Civil Registry Service. This study takes a qualitative, descriptive approach to collect data. The theory used is the theory of Edward III, which focuses on four things that affect how public policy is put into action: communication, resources, personality, and the structure of the bureaucracy. Interviews, observations, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), and documentation studies are all ways to collect data. Miles and Huberman created an interactive model that is used for data analysis. The study's results show that population administration services through the go digital app have made the population and civil registration services in the Probolinggo district run better, especially in handling electronic KTPs. This research focuses on four indicators: communication, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. Communication, disposition, and bureaucratic structure have been done well enough by implementers that they have become a driving factor in the implementation of population administration services through the digital go application. In contrast, a lack of resources has become an impeding factor.

Sampah adalah sisa atau barang buangan yang sudah tidak digunakan dan tidak dpakai lagi oleh pemiliknya. Sampah secara umum dibagi menjadi dua yaitu sampah organik dan an-organik. Kedua sampah ini memiliki manfaat untuk kita, namun juga ada dampaknya untuk lingkungan. Sampah organik adalah limbah yang berasal dari sisa makhluk hidup seperti hewan, manusia, tumbuhan yang mengalami pembusukan atau pelapukan. Sampah ini tergolong sampah yang ramah lingkungan karena dapat di urai oleh bakteri secara alami dan berlangsungnya cepat. Sampah Anorganik adalah sampah yang berasal dari sisa manusia yang sulit untuk di urai oleh bakteri, sehingga membutuhkan waktu yang cukup lama (hinga ratusan tahun) untuk dapat di uraikan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat dilaksanakan di SMP Negeri 4 Bangutapan yang beralamat di Padukuhan Grojogan, Kelurahan Tamanan, Kecamatan Banguntapan, Kabupaten Bantul, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Adapun pelaksanaan kegiatan dilaksanakan pada bulan November tahun 2022 dengan melibatkan kurang lebih 35 siswa yang merupakan gabungan dari kelas 7 dan 8 SMP Negeri 4 Banguntapan. Anggota yang terdiri dari ketua kelas dan wakil ketua kelas dipilih sebagai peserta pembinaan untuk meminimalisasi jumlah peserta pembinaan yang terlalu banyak. Diharapkan nantinya para anggota pembinaan dapat menerapkan pengetahuan yang diperolehnya kepada warga sekolah yang lainnya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penyampaian materi kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat adalah pendidikan masyarakat. Metode ini dilakukan dengan mengadakan sosialisasi tentang sampah, baik pengertian, jenis, akibat serta cara penanggulangan sampah.

The data of this study consists of a mixed-methods approach. First, introspective and retrospective verbal reports of ten English-major learners who met new vocabulary while reading a passage. Secondly, in the interview stage, participants were asked about how the internet and mobile resources affect how they approach new words and their lexical knowledge/size. Furthermore, they were asked if they follow specific strategies to commit new vocabulary to memory. The findings of this research showed that the participants used similar vocabulary learning strategies. During the reading task, the most preferred strategy was guessing the meaning of the words from the context. Consulting a monolingual or bilingual dictionary was the second most used strategy, while the least used strategy was asking the teacher to discover the meaning of the unknown words. Participants in this study reported that they prefer memory strategies over cognitive strategies. Moreover, they said that the accessibility of internet learning tools has contributed to increasing their vocabulary size and lexical knowledge.

In the present paper, efforts have been made to evaluate microbial contaminants in term of  CFU/g of three sealed Bournvita samples (B1, B2, B3) and three sealed Horlicks samples (H1, H2, H3) at interval of one month for 120 days (4 months) under controlled laboratory conditions. Further to find out the effect of consumer’s handling on microbial load, these packs after 120 days were distributed to consumer A, B and C respectively and were examined for extended period of 28 days at interval of 7 days. The results revealed that microbial contaminants were present since beginning (when opened) in all the energy food samples. Maximum microbial load in Bournvita sample was recorded in B2, followed by B3 and B1 respectively and in Horlicks, it was maximum in H2 followed by H3 and H1 respectively. In general the microbial contaminants were more in Bournvita than Horlicks. No significant change occurred in their CFU till 120 days but handling process enhanced the contaminants significantly both in their quality and quantity in term of microbial group. Fungi and Actinomycetes were recorded in sampling from the samples of consumers A, B and C. Total CFU enhanced from both energy food and reached in several lakhs. Total Bacterial species isolated and identified were Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Enterococcus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.  After 2 and half years (Feb 2010) the bacterial count was found 3, 00000 CFU/g of Horlicks and fungal count was 250CFU/g.

Boenninghausenia albiflora belonging to the family Rutaceae is well known for its medicinal properties in traditional system of medicine. The crude ethanolic extracts of aerial part were tested for in-vitro anti-plasmodial activity against two strains of Plasmodium falciparum: MRC-pf-20 (chloroquine resistant strain) and MRC-pf-303 (chloroquine sensitive strain), using the parasite lactate dehydrogenase (pLDH) assay. Crude ethanolic extracts showed good anti-plasmodial activity in vitro (IC50 ≤ 50 μgml-1). It showed promising anti-plasmodial activity with an IC50 = 22.18μgml-1 on MRC-pf-20 strain and IC50 = 27.43μgml-1 on MRC-pf-303 strain. Crude ethanolic extracts were be further fractionated by partitioning in water and dichloromethane. The dichloromethane fraction revealed stronger anti-plasmodial activity than crude ethanolic extracts. The dichloromethane extract of B. albiflora showed promising anti-plasmodial activity with an IC50 = 12.32 μgml-1 on MRC-pf-20 strain and IC50 = 17.41 μgml-1 on MRC-pf-303 strain. Therefore, there is need to continue the extensive study including isolation and identification of the active compound and their invitro and invivo activity.

Published: February 2023

In the present investigation xylanase producing bacteria was isolated from compost. A total of 95 xylanolytic bacteria were isolated on oat spelt xylan agar medium and screened by the xylanolysis method. Out of these 95 isolates, only one bacterial isolates, strain C1 was selected for further study on the basis of zone of hydrolysis on xylan-congo red agar plate. This strain was identified by 16S rDNA analysis. The phylogenetic analysis using 16S rDNA sequence data showed that isolate C1 showed highest nucleotide identity of 98% with Bacillus licheniformis strain CICC 10181 (GenBank accession no. GQ375235) and identified as Bacillus licheniformis strain C1. Bacillus licheniformis strain C1 was gram positive and rod shaped. Morphology of Bacillus licheniformis strain C1 showed- smooth texture, medium size, opaque transparency, creamish-white colour and serrated margin. Maximal xylanase production for Bacillus licheniformis strain C1 was achieved at the incubation period of 48 h. Xylanase and cellulase activities were determined as 20.0 U/ml and 1.3 U/ml, respectively.  The optimum pH and optimum temperature for xylanase activity was found to be 7.0 and 60°C, respectively. Xylanase was found to be thermostable at 60°C for 1h and retained 90% of its activity upto 6 h at this temperature. Approximately, 74% and 70% of its activity was retained at 70°C and 80°C respectively, after 6 h of incubation. All of these properties of the Bacillus licheniformis strain C1 xylanase make the suitability of this enzyme for its use in feed and baking industry.

Herpes zoster infection (HZ) is an important public health problem due to its high incidence and frequent complications, especially post-herpetic neuropathy . The incidence of HZ increases with age and is more frequent in immunocompromised patients. It is estimated that at least 60,000 people develop HZ each year in Spain. The usual forms of HZ are so clinically characteristic that they do not usually require microbiological confirmation, which is reserved for cases without cutaneous manifestations or with atypical presentation. There are currently two vaccines approved by the regulatory agencies and marketed in Spain to prevent the onset of HZ and its complications. The first (Zostavax®) was marketed by the company MSD and licensed in Europe in 2006 and is a live attenuated virus vaccine that is administered in a single dose, while the second (Shingrix®) is a recombinant vaccine, marketed in 2017 and requires two doses. While the former cannot be administered to immunocompromised persons, the latter can be prescribed to any group of adults. The criteria for the indication and financing of these vaccines have not been uniform in the various autonomous communities of Spain. These and other aspects of HZ have been discussed by a group of experts from the Illustrious Official College of Physicians of Madrid (ICOMEM) whose criteria and opinions are included in this paper.

Tomatoes are one of the most consumed vegetables in the world, and the waste from their processing is mainly discarded. Tomato byproducts can be used in different ways, and the seed, the peel, or both can be incorporated into the process. In most studies, the byproduct is dried, and the powder is incorporated into various products. The powder incorporated concentration varies with the food categories, which for most products is around 10% (w/w). The composition of tomato pomace is rich in fibers and causes a considerable change in technological food aspects, such as hardness, viscosity, cohesiveness, volume, expansion, density, and sensory evaluations. Although the incorporation of the tomatoes byproduct can affect specific characteristics due to the high content of fibers and active compounds, its use has aroused interest. This review aims to assemble studies related to tomatoes byproduct within an industrial context and discuss its effects as an ingredient in physicochemical, rheological, textural, and sensorial parameters in tomato-based foods, meats, bakery products, and snacks, among others.
