Published: December 2022

The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze in depth the fiqh reasoning of generation Z in Indonesia. The focus of this research is the phenomenon of Generation Z in searching for arguments online for their increasingly complex and new life problems. The formulation of the problem in this study is as follows; (1) why did the process of shifting from offline fiqh reasoning to online fiqh reasoning occur in Generation Z?, (2) what is the typology of online fiqh material in Generation Z?, (3) how is the process of filtering fiqh material online in Generation Z?, and (4) what is the trend of online fiqh in Generation Z? This research method uses a qualitative approach with a multi-site study type of research. The data collection techniques used were observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of Generation Z who were at MA “Matholi’ul Anwar” Lamongan and SMAN 2 Lamongan who did not take part in the boarding school program at their institutions. The research findings show that; (1) the shift from offline fiqh reasoning to online fiqh reasoning occurs because Generation Z are digital natives or native speakers of digital technology so they prefer using the internet in finding answers and understanding fiqh rather than reading and asking questions to teachers for reasons of more privacy, effectiveness and efficiency , (2) the typology of online fiqh material that they access, there are two typological groups, namely the conservative typology group and the moderate typology group, (3) the filtration carried out by Generation Z in exploring, studying, and understanding fiqh material online can be grouped into two groups, namely the those who did not filter and those who filtered, (4) the tendency of online fiqh material to be the choice of Generation Z found that there were five main rankings of online fiqh material chosen by Generation Z. The five rankings of fiqh material were: the first rank covered the theme of worship; the second rank covers the theme of jihad; the third rank includes political themes in Islam; the fourth rank includes the theme of zakat, alms, and pilgrimage; and the fifth rank includes the theme of the relationship between men and women in Islam.

Large quantities of discarded flowers from religious observances are left at temples and other places of worship, causing global disposal and environmental issues. Recycling and transforming such organic waste into value-added products is one of the most effective and beneficial solutions to the problem. The main goal of this study is to convert the most abundant temple wastes of marigold (Tagetes erecta) flowers into an eco-friendly dyestuff for the textile industry. Our study assessed the suitability of dye extract from garland waste for dyeing hemp fabric and valuated indicators including color strength (K/S) and fastness properties using tannic acid as a bio-mordant. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for optimization of the dyeing process and evaluation of the interaction effects of various operating parameters. The optimal conditions were determined to be pH of 4.23, dyeing temperature of 99.98°C, and dyeing time of 82.64 min. To validate the optimal conditions identified by RSM, performance evaluations were conducted, including color fastness properties of the dyed hemp fabrics as well as the total color difference after repeated standard washing. These results demonstrate the use of aqueous extract from temple garland waste combined with bio-mordant represents a promising approach for textile dyeing.

This research aims to reduce production capital costs and added value to natural products. The bio-mulching film was prepared by bacterial cellulose (BC) “Acetobacter xylinum”, extracted from three rotten fruits, grape, coconut, and pineapple under standard tests in the laboratory. The analysis from the FTIR technique confirmed to cellulose molecular vibration of BC films. XRD pattern was matched to structure crystallinity of JCPDS standard file which possessed a high percentage of crystallinity. The SEM micrographs were also revealed the 3D nanofiber network structure. The absorption capability of BC films could highly hold water in its structure. In addition, the mechanical properties of BC films came from rotten coconut, given the highest tensile strength (7.2 ± 1.1 MPa) according to nano-fiber symmetric with its dense structure. Nevertheless, the soil burial testing emphasized BC films could reduce soil temperature and increase moisture content in the soil as well. The biodegradation rate of BC films in 30 days was moderately fair. The BC film from rotten coconut had the slowest biodegradation rate (approximately 22.3 4.2%), applicable to biodegradable mulching film.
The effects of double intercritical annealing on microstructure and mechanical properties of 0.107C-2.39Mn-0.453Si dual phase steel

Published: December 2022

In this study, double intercritical annealing was applied to modify the mechanical properties of 0.107%C-2.39%Mn-0.453%Si dual phase steel. The effects of the double intercritical annealing (DIA) method were investigated via microstructure observation and tensile test, and then compared with the single intercritical annealing (SIA) method. By increasing the intercritical annealing temperature, yield and tensile strengths increase while ductility decreases primarily due to the increase of martensite fraction. DIA leads to a slight reduction of the ferrite size and the martensite fraction regardless of the intercritical annealing temperature. Tensile results showed that DIA increases ductility without losing significant amount of strength. The outcome implies that the DIA method can be used to modify the mechanical properties of DP steels without adding excessive complexity to the process.

Published: December 2022

Asian countries rely massively on rice to feed and sustain its massive population. For long the staple food has provided nourishment to the masses and the classes. Rice is grown in large quantities in Asian countries. A by-product of its cultivation is its husk. The husk of the rice grain is mainly utilized as a fuel for the boilers in the rice mills. The uncontrolled burnt rice husk referred to as rice husk ash consists majorly of silica. silica is used in a wide variety of commercial and industrial applications. Use of rice husk ash in various products serves to reduce the pollution caused by its pileup in localities especially close to the rice mills. More sustainable and an affordable source of Si would benefit the society rather than disposing rice husk ash in the fields and landfills. This brief review provides insights into the synthesis, applications, and properties of rice husk ash incorporated products either directly in the as received conditions or under modified conditions.

Published: December 2022

The traditional agglutination assays especially those based on polystyrene beads have been recognized as convenient tools for disease diagnosis despite their limited detection range and low sensitivity. Unlike other particles namely polystyrene beads, SiO2 and gold nanoparticles having insignificant magnetic properties, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) offer unique advantages as their magnetic properties for agglutination methods. In the presence of magnet, not only can they be used to enrich the samples, but also their aggregation can also be induced, providing sensitive and rapid measurements. This work aims to develop MNPs for aggregation-based biomolecular detection. The MNPs were surface-modified with PMAMPC via an in situ coating method, then biotin as the target-specific probe was immobilized. The biotin-conjugated PMAMPC-MNPs were used for capturing and detecting the complementary protein, streptavidin in human serum samples. With the magnetic-induction, the nanoparticles would aggregate in the presence of streptavidin, resulting in a short detection time even in undiluted human serum. The concentration range for the detection was 35 nM to 150 nM and the lowest concentration of detection was 35 nM or equivalent to 2.5 mg⸳mL-1. The fact that this is simple, rapid and instrument-free method for biomolecular detection broadens their potential use in a variety of diagnostic applications.

Authors: ÇÖLOĞLU Raşit
Published: December 2022

Tuvalar Güney Sibirya’da Türk ve Moğol halklarıyla iç içe yaşayan kadim bir Türk boyudur. Haan- Tögüldür Destanı Türk ve Moğol destanlarının yapı ve motif özelliklerini gösterir. Destan, kahramanın evlenmek için çıktığı yolculuk, gösterdiği kahramanlıklar ve istediği kızı almak için katıldığı müsabakalar üzerine kuruludur. Bu özelliğiyle Türk-Moğol destanlardaki “kahramanın evlilik yolculuğu”nun geleneksel kurgu ve motif yapısına uygundur. Türk destanları hayvan motifi ve sembolik anlamı açısından zengindir. Destanda at, kahramanın yoldaşıdır, kahramana akıl verir, kahramanla birlikte şekilde değiştirir ve öldürülen sahibini diriltebilme becerisine sahiptir. Destanda kahramanın atları sıra dışı özellikler taşır. Destanda çok sayıda at donuna da yer verilir. Destandaki diğer bir hayvan da devedir. Deve kahramanın kendini ispatlaması için yoluna çıkan engellerden biridir. Haan-Tögüldür bu deveyi yenerek evlenmek için yapılan yarışlara katılabilir. Destanda kuş motifi Haan-Hereti kuşu şeklinde gizemli ve sembolik bir kuş olarak kendine yer bulmuştur. Destanda büyük ve küçükbaş hayvanlar bazı benzetmeler yanında daha çok etinden faydalanılan hayvanlar olarak yer almaktadır. Tuvalar şamanist ve Budist olmalarına rağmen Müslüman Türklerle benzer bir beslenme alışkanlığına sahiplerdir. Bu çalışma sonucunda Haan-Tögüldür Destanı’nda zengin bir hayvan motifinin yer aldığı ve hayvan motiflerinin diğer Türk boylarının destanlarındakiyle benzer olduğu ortaya konulmuştur.

Public Enterprises – Old and New Challenges
Authors: Lepetic Jelena
Published: December 2022

In this paper, the author analyses rules which regulate public enterprises. The definition of public enterprises is provided after presenting the terminological issues. The paper points out that the existence of public enterprises as a special type of business entities is unnecessary, as well as that coordinated strategy regarding the future of all public enterprises, not only those founded by the state, should be drawn up. Also, the need to harmonize laws is highlighted as well as the necessity of adjusting the rules regarding the organization of public enterprises to the needs of multiple founders. Furthermore, the differences between the rules on the management of public enterprises and commercial companies are described. The author concludes that, in principle, it is necessary to apply general rules to public enterprises as well, whereby any special rules may be stipulated by general or special law. Finally, the issue of gender balance on management and supervisory boards of public enterprises is also examined.

Authors: Vujicic Jovan
Published: December 2022

Uniform Rules for Digital Trade Transactions (URDTT) do not offer solutions to all issues in this area, but by striving to achieve uniformity, by providing a collective understanding of terms and definitions, as well as by promoting and supporting the usage of electronic records, they contribute to easier, faster, cheaper, and environmentally sustainable business. While their formulation and publication are an important step towards a digital future, acceptance and effective implementation are an even greater challenge. The prerequisites for this are a thorough understanding, but also solving a number of technical issues, which can be very complex. To this end, the paper, after determining the area of application, discusses the roles of participants in a digital trade transaction, as well as issues that are key to its proceeding, the payment obligation, the financial services provider (fsp) payment undertaking and the use of electronic records.

Authors: Vujisic Dragan
Published: December 2022

The authors start from the analysis of the Directive on Representative Аctions for the Protection of Collective Interests of Consumers, whose implementation should provide at least one procedural mechanism for representative lawsuits for prohibition and remedial measures at national level and EU level. The most important segments of the normative regulation of this Directive are presented: representative actions, qualified entities and the procedure for protecting the collective interests of consumers. Member States are allowed to decide whether a representative action is to be taken in judicial or administrative proceedings, or in both. Prohibition measures aimed at protecting collective interests of consumers, regardless of whether an individual consumer has suffered real loss or damage, have been pointed out. The new Law on Consumer Protection of the Republic of Serbia from 2021 remained on the same basis as previous one from 2014. It is consumer protection in a special administrative procedure.
Contract Law Rules Application in Interpreting the Moment of Concluding Restrictive Agreements on the Market
Authors: Tomovic Nikolina
Published: December 2022

Current legal provisions state that contract is concluded when parties have reached an agreement on its essential elements. Concurrence of wills, therefore, represents a turning point in the process of creating a contract, which is why it raises a number of questions regarding the process of agreement conclusion. This paper aims to perceive the application of contract law rules in interpreting the moment of concluding restrictive agreements on the market, the prohibition of which is contained in art. 101(1) TFEU. In addition, paper will provide an overview of the general rules of contract law and indicate their application when interpreting the moment of conclusion of restrictive agreements on the market, through the decisions of the EU Court of Justice in individual cases. The paper endeavours to point out the specifics of competitor’s market behaviour which can reflect the existence of consent to conclude restrictive agreements that affect freedom of competition.

One of the most important parasites which frequently causes blindness in humans is the cysticercus
cellulosae, in which humans are the intermediate hosts in the life cycle. Ophthalmological involvement
can affect eyelids, conjunctiva, anterior chamber, uvea, vitreous, retina, extra ocular muscles and optic
nerve. We report the case of a 55 years old female who presented with multiple swelling in all limb,
difficulty in walking and loos of vision in right eye. On ocular examination, there was subconjunctival
cyst in inferior forniceal region in left eye and ill-defined ruptured cyst in vitreous cavity in right eye. On
physical examination, multiple cystic swellings were observed over her skull, arms, forearm, thighs,
fingers and toes. Simultaneous involvement of eye, limbs and CNS is rare in routine scenario. Diagnosis
of cysticercosis is based mainly on orbital imaging because of its highly specific appearance. Medical
therapy is the main stay of treatment.

Published: December 2022

Background: The present study assessed the maternal and foetal outcomes of both induced and spontaneous labour in 39 to 41 weeks pregnant women. Material & Methods: A comparative study was conducted among 200 women including 100 women in spontaneous labour group and 100 women in induced labour group. Maternal and fetal outcomes like antenatal complications, duration of labour, mode of delivery, indication for caesarean delivery, maternal complications, meconium staining of liquor, birth weight, APGAR score and NICU admissions were studied. Results: Mean maternal age was similar among both study groups. Majority of patients in both groups had gestational age between 39 to 40 weeks. Antenatal complications like PROM, oligohydroamnios etc. were more prevalent in induced women. Caesarean section rate was significantly high among the induced group in both nulliparous and multiparous women as compared to spontaneous labour group. Most common indication of caesarean section was fetal distress in both groups. Birth weights of babies were similar in the study groups. Induction was not found to affect meconium staining of liquor and APGAR score of babies and NICU admission rates. Conclusion: Although induction of labour increases the odds of caesarean section, it has no adverse effects on mother or baby. Hence induction of labour can be recommended as a safe technique for pregnant women with delayed gestation. Keywords: Expectant management, Induction of labour, spontaneous labour, Maternal, Fetal

Published: December 2022

L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer, par incubation au laboratoire, l’hydrolyse et la minéralisation de l’urée dans un Arénoferralsol et un Ferralsol et d’estimer la quantité de CO2 libéré pendant15 jours. Dans l’Arénoferralsol, la forte montée de pH constatée jusqu’au 7ème jour d’incubation dénote une forte hydrolyse de l’urée inhibant l’activité de microorganismes et occasionne la faible minéralisation de l’azote. La forte montée du pH est en corrélation avec la massive volatilisation de NH3 enregistrée à ce niveau. Au-delà du 7ème jour d’incubation, s’amorçaient la diminution de NH3 volatil, la reprise de l’activité microbienne et l’accroissement de la nitrification. Dans le Ferralsol, il a été enregistré, jusqu’au 7ème jour, une faible montée de pH indiquant une faible libération de NH3, une faible respiration microbienne et une faible transformation de l’azote uréique. Le pH, quoique monté à 5.55 est resté dans la zone de forte acidité. La chute du pH observée à partir du 11èmejour d’incubation a faiblement stimulé la formation de NH4+-N et le CO2 demeurant toujours faible. Ainsi, la teneur en NO3--N a connu une certaine augmentation. D’où, la conclusion que la nitrification dans ce type de sol est très lente en raison de sa forte acidité. De nos résultats observés, la nitrification et la volatilisation semblent être plus actives dans l’Arénoferralsol qu’au Ferralsol. Car, l’État acide du Ferralsol et la qualité de la matière organique se conjuguent pour inhiber la nitrification en détruisant la vie microbienne, surtout ceux responsables de la nitrification.

The article “Theatre Arts and its Importance in Education” depicts the problem of Theatre Arts, one of the popular form of performing arts. This art form is rarely used from the preliminary stage of education to the senior secondary stage of education in our country. This article highlights the importance, challenge and seeks to improve the growth benefits of the younger generation. The children of the new generation are unaware of the culture, tradition, moral ethics etc. Theatre Arts helps them to present and apply these practically and creatively. In this article the researcher tries to study the benefits and impact of theatre arts in education, bearing in mind its long-term goals for the children. Theatre has been a means of entertainment and also a resource of cultural and social lifestyles of various regions, religions and societies. It is not only a means of entertainment but a very powerful tool to spread social messages across the length and breadth of the country. Indian Government has used it successfully for programmes. Such programmes go a long way in spreading awareness about polio eradication, save soil, afforestation, girl child education, various vaccinations, AIDS, COVID, Save Water, prevention of child marriage, dowry deaths etc.

PHULKARI131, SAMMI AND SAADA PIND – UNDERSTANDING PUNJABIYAT
Authors: Chanana Sakshi
Published: December 2022

Punjab, one of the diverse states of India, is known for its composite culture, impeccable hospitality, delish food and incredible history; having been the site of great partition, it is also replete with the stories of loss, suffering and resilience. While Punjab can be seen and comprehended through various vantage points, the current paper proposes and focuses on the proposition that ‘Punjabiyat’- the essence and way of being a Punjabi, is reflected specifically through its attire-folk embroidery (Fulkaari and Baag), Folk-Dance and Music Art forms (Sammi and Jaago) and the focal point of hospitality (Saada Pind). Phulkari, literally translated as flower shape, is a folk-art embroidery that originated in 15th c by rural women in Punjab, and is popularly arranged on Dupattas135. “Many Punjabi women used phulkari (literally, “flower-work”) embroidery to decorate their daily garments and handmade gifts in the nineteenth century. Illustrations only partially convey the vibrant visual impact of phulkaris, and even color photographs fail to capture fully the sheen of the silk thread. The embroidery ranges from striking geometric medallions in reds, shocking pinks, and maroons, through almost monochromatic golden tapestry-like, fabriccovering designs, to narrative embroideries depicting people and objects of rural Punjab”.136 Initially intended to be given away to daughters in marriage and holding a strong emotional value, the use of Fulkaari has widened and transitioned in the recent past. This study asserts that it can now also be seen as a cultural symbol and an artefact, to convey the bright and cheerful attitude of Punjabis and their general happy disposition towards lifeCarpe Diem. Similarly, the folk-dance art form of Sammi- a dance performed originally by tribal women of Punjab, represents the true culture and spirit of Punjabiyat- the friendship, longing, celebration of love and a sense of optimism for life. While Bhangra and Giddha folk dance art forms have gained wide popularity; folk dance art forms like Sammi and Jaago too need representation and space in academic and historical discourse. This paper also intends to trace these two relatively lost dance art forms as signifying essentiality of ‘Punjabiyat’. Further ‘Saada Pind’- roughly translated as ‘my village’; conveys a sense of oneness, camaraderie, raw emotion and a place in time-space continuum where each stranger is welcomed with ‘Ji Aaayan Nu’137. This study would establish how ‘Punjabiyat’; and consequentially ‘Indian’ cultural art forms can be a possibility of re-looking at the lost values of friendship, camaraderie, connection with the outside real world rather than a disparate and robotic connect with the monotonous clicks on our smart devices.

Prevalence of syphaciosis (pinworm infection) in laboratory rats and mice, species identification, chemotherapy with ivermectin and its effect on pinworm infection, and Th2 cytokine response was studied. Using perianal tape test examination, the highest rate of pinworm infection was found in male Wistar rats (69.44%) followed by female Wistar rats (62.50%), male Balb C mice (60.60%), female Swiss Albino mice (51.42%), male Swiss Albino mice (33.33%) and female Balb C mice (32.69%). Wistar rats had maximum infection (65.97%) followed by Balb C mice (46.64%) and Swiss albino mice (42.37%). Overall, males had higher infection (54.45%) compared to females (48.87%). Syphacia obvelata in mice and S. muris in rats were the pinworms identified morphologically and confirmed with polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. No mixed infection was found in rats and mice. Ivermectin (2.5 mg/kg) as oral gavage as well as in drinking water continuously for five days was highly effective in eradicationof pinworms in rats and mice. Down regulation of Th2 cytokines, viz. IL4, IL5 and IL13 was observed after ivermectin treatment in both male and female Wistar rats.

The present study was undertaken to assess the suitability of immunochromatographic assay (ICA) as a field test for the diagnosis of caprine brucellosis. Whole blood samples (570: 195 male goats, 375 female goats) were collected from selected organized herds and panjarapoles located in Southern Gujarat. Out of 570 animals tested, 19 (3.33%), 72 (12.63%) and 45 (7.89%) were positive by Rose Bengal plate test (RBPT), indirect ELISA (iELISA) and immunochromatographic assay (ICA) respectively. The sensitivity of RBPT and ICA vs iELISA was 26.39% and 61.11% respectively. Both the tests were 100% specific when compared with iELISA. Negative likelihood ratio for RBPT and ICA as compared to iELISA was 0.74 and 0.39 respectively. The negative predictive value for RBPT was 90.38% and 94.68% for ICA. However, the positive predictive values (PPV) for both the tests were 100%. McNemar chi-square test for independent data (with Yates’ correction) revealed significant difference in the positive proportion between RBPT vs iELISA as 9.30% and ICA vs iELISA as 4.91%. The concordance of iELISA with RBPT was moderate (k=0.385) while it was good (k=0.733) for ICA.

Genetic polymorphism for GHR gene was carried out in Jamunapari kids by Polymerase Chain Reaction- Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Blood samples were collected from 200 kids for isolation of genomic DNA. The exon 1A (210 bp fragment), exon 10 (342 bp fragment) and 5’ non-coding region (318 bp fragment) of GHR gene were amplified and digested with MspI, AluI and NsiI restriction endonuclease, respectively. PCR-RFLP analysis for 5’ non-coding region revealed monomorphic pattern while exon 1A and exon 10 of GHR were polymorphic. The frequency of A and T alleles was 0.54 and 0.46, respectively, and frequency of three genotypes (AA, AT and TT) was 0.17, 0.74 and 0.09, respectively at locus exon 1A of GHR. The frequency of A and G allele for exon 10 was 0.53 and 0.47, and frequency of three genotypes (AA, AG and GG) was 0.16, 0.74 and 0.10, respectively. The genotype AG was associated with higher body weights at different growth stages. The goats with AG genotype were heavier to AA and GG genotypes by 4.91 and 42.85% at birth; 8.59 and 13.30% at 6 months; 8.02 and 17.25% at 9 months and 7.11 and 16.11% at 12 months, respectively. The locus was also a significant source of variation for biometrical traits (body weight, body length, heart girth) at different ages. AG genotype could be used as marker in selection for higher body weights in Jamunapari goats.

Published: December 2022

The present work was undertaken to study the effect of feeding micro-nutrient rich sorghum hay in the diet of sheep on nutrient intake and its utilization. Twelve adult Jalauni sheep (weighing 39.11±1.02 kg) were randomly divided into 2 groups of 6 animals each. The sheep of control group (G1) were fed on NPK fertilized chopped sorghum hay and crushed barley grain (300g/d) based ration, while the sheep of group G2 were offered NPK + 50% recommended dose of micronutrients (Zn, Mn and Cu 10, 5 and 2.5 kg/ha) + seed priming in 0.05% solution of ZnSO4 for 12 h + VAM inoculated sorghum hay along with barley grain (300g/d) for 30 days. Micro-nutrient (Cu, Zn and Mn) fertilization improved mineral content (ppm) in sorghum hay for Cu (7.47 vs 9.22), Zn (22.69 vs 27.48) and Mn (73.56 vs 102.01). The effective intake of minerals was Cu, 8.71and 10.06, Zn, 26.23 and 30.18; Mn, 62.59 and 86.05 ppm in G1and G2, respectively. The additional mineral supplementation through micronutrient rich sorghum hay had no significant effect on dry matter intake. Similarly, the intakes of digestible crude protein, metabolizable energy and digestibility of DM, CP, NDF, ADF, were also comparable among the groups. However, micro-nutrient (Cu, Zn and Mn) supplementation through fodder sorghum improved the mineral retention (Cu 2.84 vs 3.72 mg/d, Zn 11.72 vs 15.46 mg/d and Mn 26.19 vs 40.28 mg/d) without affecting significantly the absorption coefficient in adult sheep. The apparent absorption and retention of N was positive and comparable between thegroups. Nutrient content (%) in terms of DCP and TDN in both type diets fed to sheep were also similar. Thus, itÂ  can be concluded that micro-nutrient (Cu, Zn and Mn) application to fodder sorghum improved the mineral content in the fodder, and feeding of micronutrient fertilized sorghum hay based diet improve the intake and retention of micro-minerals significantly without affecting nutrient intake and nutrient utilization in adult Jalauni sheep.
