The Rogue as an Artist in Patrick deWitt’s The Sisters Brothers
Authors: Staels Hilde
Published: November 2019

This article explores Eli Sisters as a reinvigorated rogue who finds his artistic calling in Patrick deWitt’s The Sisters Brothers, published in 2011. With the help of insights from narratology and genre theory, the article provides a textual analysis of Eli’s discourse, perspective and behaviour. Eli casts a critical light on the senseless violence, unbridled greed, ecological devastation, and hyper-masculinity inherent to America’s Frontier myth. As a reinvigorated rogue, he raises questions about what it means to be human and reflects upon morality. With hindsight, the rogue as an artist creates a generically hybrid narrative that parodically imitates and transforms the genre conventions of the Western and the picaresque tale. The article also draws attention to the power that Eli assigns to women in a story about male heroic conquest. These include otherworldly female figures from classical mythology and the brothers’ mother.

Published: November 2019

Gry komputerowe są niezwykle istotnym elementem współczesnej rzeczywistości. Ich popularność przyczyniła się do powstania sceny e-sportowej, a tym samym do zaistnienia nowego gatunku medialnego, jakim jest komentarz e-sportowy. W powyższym artykule ukazuję zastosowanie w analizie komentarza e-sportowego do meczów Counter Strike: Global Offensive metody badań genologicznych autorstwa Marii Wojtak. Zgodnie z założeniami autorki metody analizuję cztery aspekty gatunkowe. Pierwszym z nich jest struktura, a więc rama delimitacyjna oraz poszczególne segmenty, z jakich składa się cały komentarz. Kolejny aspekt, pragmatyczny, dotyczy relacji między nadawcą – komentatorem a odbiorcą – internautą. Dalej konieczny jest opis aspektu poznawczego, czyli tematyki, wartościowania i innych elementów tworzących językowy obraz świata, występujący w danym gatunku. Ostatnim aspektem są cechy stylistyczne charakterystyczne dla komentarza e-sportowego, takie jak potoczność, emocjonalność czy leksyka żargonowa. Główny wniosek płynący z artykułu wskazuje na stosowność zaadaptowania metody Marii Wojtak do badań nad nowym gatunkiem medialnym, jakim jest komentarz e-sportowy.
RELEVANSI BUDAYA “ NATING” DAN PERSEPSI MASYARAKAT KABUPATEN LAHAT TERHADAP POTENSI PENDIRIAN BAITUL MAAL WAT TAMWIL
Authors: Erdah Litriani
Published: November 2019

Praktek gadai atau nating yang sering terjadi dimasyarakat dapat dikatakan terdapat unsur penganiayaan,hal ini disebabkan karena pelaku nating sangat terpaksa untuk menggadaikan lahan milik mereka, selama dalam masa perjanjian pemilik lahan tidak memiliki hak untuk mengelola atau menggarap dan tidak mendapatkan bagian dari hasil produksi atau hasil panen. Kemudian, pada saat perjanjian berakhir pemilik lahan harus menebus lahan dengan jumlah atau besaran yang sama pada saat peminjaman awal tanpa mendapatkan bagian dari keuntungan hasil panen itu sendiri. Budaya nating yang ada dimasyarakat selama ini telah berlangsung sejak lamadan menjadi adat yang biasa dan belum ada problem solving baik dari Pemerintah, lembaga adat atau pihak terkait lainnya. Konsep BMT (Baitul Mal wat Tamwil) dapat dihadirkan di daerah  kabupaten kota Lahat Sumatera Selatan dan bahkan di kecamatan dan perdesaan.Konsep BMT sebagai lembaga keuangan mikro syari’ah. Pendekatan Community Based Riset (CBR) dilakukan dengan cara wawancara mendalam kepada masyarakat yang melakukan kegiatan nating, guna menemukan faktor-faktor yang melatarbelakangi masyarakat melakukan kegiatan nating tersebut dan permasalahan yang sering dihadapi . Wawancara dilakukan dengan pemilik tanah / lahan, pemilik modal, dan pemangku setempat yang berwenang baik pemangku pemerintahan maupun pelaku adat. Serta, mendiskusikan solusi yang tepat bagi masalah-masalah yang sering terjadi. Hasil dari penelitian ini didapatkan bahwa Masyarakat melakukan praktek nating atau gadai dikarenakan ada keperluan yang sangat mendesak biasanya untuk biaya pengobatan, biaya pendidikan anak, tambahan uang untu merenovasi rumah, tambahan uang untuk membeli kebun, banyak alasan yang melatarbelakangi masyarakat melakukan praktek gadai. Persepsi masyarakat mengenai keberadaan BMT sangat setuju karena dapat membantu masyarakat khususnya masyarakat yang sawahnya sudah tergadai, jenis BMT/ Koperasi yang diinginkan oleh masyarakat adalah jenis simpan pinjam yang tidak berbunga, serta pembayaran yang dapat dibayar pada saat musim panen. Relevansi budaya nating terhadap potensi pendirian BMT, bahwa diharapkan BMT menjadi suatu penewaran baru bagi permsalahan yang ada selama ini. Dengan danya pendiirian BMT diharapkan mampu menjadi sebuah solusi baru bagi permasalahan yang ada dimasyarakat. Pendirian BMT sangat relevan bagi solusi permasalahan budaya “nating” di Kabupaten Lahat pada umumnya.

Published: November 2019

Introduction: Work-related fatigue is a common problem in the workplace that must be solved because it has an impact on the occurrence of workplace accidents, reduces productivity and affects workers’ health. A survey conducted by the National Safety Council on 2010 workers in 2017 stated that 69% of them experienced work-related fatigue and 13% of them could be attributed to workplace accidents. Other studies conducted by O'Neill and Panuwatwanich in 2013 stated the loss that could arise due to work-related fatigue is averaged around $ 1,000/week. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between work climate and physical workload with work-related fatigue on workers in the 5th warehouse of fabrication area of Bangun Sarana Baja Company. Metods: This study is an observational analytic with a cross-sectional approach with 30 respondents who were randomly selected using the simple random sampling method. Measurements of the work climate used heat stress apparatus by calculating the Wet Bulb Globe Temperature, and measurement of physical workload is carried out by observations referring to Indonesian national standard No. 7269 in 2009. Meanwhile, work-related fatigue is measured objectively by using reaction timer. Results: This study indicates the average work climate is exceeding TLV (28.4° C), and the majority of workers got a moderate physical workload (53.3%) and experience mild work-related fatigue (50%). Conclusion: There was no relation between work climate and work-related fatigue (p-value = 0.192) and there was a significant relationship between physical workload and work-related fatigue (p-value = 0.028, r = 0.400). Keywords: physcal workload, work climate, work-related fatigue

Perampasan Obyek Fidusia dan Akibat Hukumnya
Authors: Sjafar Memet Achirius
Published: November 2019

Pilihan seseorang menggunakan lembaga jaminan fidusia untuk kepentingan bisnisnya mencerminkan bahwa lembaga jaminan fidusia terkait erat dengan kegiatan bisnis, namun ada kalanya debitur atau pihak lain menggunakan obyek fidusia sebagai sarana untuk melakukan kejahatan, akibatnya jika kejahatan tersebut dapat dibuktikan oleh Hakim, maka dimungkinkan bahwa obyek fidusia tersebut dinyatakan dirampas untuk Negara. Perampasan objek fidusia oleh Negara akan menimbulkan akibat hukum terhadap kreditor dan debitor maupun kepada pemenang lelang atau pembeli pada pelaksanaan lelang elsekusi barang rampasan. Akibat hukum bagi kreditor adalah hilannya atau terhapusnya hak hak kebendaan yang melekat pada dirinya. Bagi debitor akibat hukumnya adalah dia harus menyelesaikan kewajibannya yang timbul dari perjanjian pokok yang telah disepakati bersama dengan kreditor meskipun obyek fidusia tidak dalam penguasaannya. Jika eksekusi terhadap barang rampasan dilaksanakan oleh Kejaksaan, kemudian kreditor menggugat hasil lelang tersebut ke Pengadilan dan pengadilan mengabulkan yang dalam putusannya menyatakan hasil lelang batal demi hukum, maka pihak yang paling dirugikan adalah pemenang lelang atau pembeli yang beritikat baik, karena apabila hasil lelang dinyatan batal demi hukum, berakhir pula hak milik atas benda yang dibelinya. Akibat hukum yang menimpa pihak-pihak tersebut di atas merupakan akibat dari norma kosong atau tidak adanya peraturan perundang-undangan yang mengatur perampasan obyek fidusia oleh Negara dan lelang eksekusi barang rampasan atas barang yang sebelumnya menjadi obyek fidusia.

Authors: Abhimantara Ida Bagus
Published: November 2019

Dalam tulisan ini penulis menyajikan suatu perspektif hukum dalam lembaga jaminan perorangan atau disebut sebagai borgtocht. Commanditaire vennootschap (CV) yang berposisi sebagai badan usaha yang tidak berbadan hukum mengambil posisi sebagai corporate guarantee dalam perjanjian accesoir dari perjanjian pokoknya, maka  perlu dikaji keabsahan dan kewenangan badan usaha tersebut untuk melakukan tindakan hukum sebagai penanggung utang Debitor. Permasalahan yang dibahas dalam tulisan ini mengenai kedudukan CV selaku corporate guarantee dalam perjanjian penanggungan dan keabsahan CV menjadi penanggung dalam suatu perjanjian penanggungan. Isu-isu hukum yang dikemukakan dalam tulisan ini menyimpulkan bahwa CV yang merupakan badan usaha tidak berbadan hukum tidak dapat berposisi sebagai corporate guarantee atau borgtocht karena dalam ketentuan jaminan perorangan pada Pasal 1820 Burgerlijk Wetboek yang dapat menjadi penanggung adalah subjek hukum baik badan hukum (recht persoon) maupun orang perorangan (naturlijk persoon) dan CV sebagai badan usaha tidak memiliki kewenangan bertindak (bevoegheid) dan perjanjian penanggungan tersebut dapat dibatalkan (vernietigbaar) karena tidak memenuhi unsur subyektif dalam Pasal 1320 BW.
Beyond Enzyme Production: Solid State Fermentation (SSF) as an Alternative to Produce Antioxidant Polysaccharides
Authors: Gutierrez-Uribe Janet Alejandra , Verduzco-Oliva Ramón
Published: November 2019

Solid state fermentation (SSF) is considered more sustainable than traditional fermentation because it uses low amounts of water and transforms agro-industrial residues into value added products. Enzymes, biofuels, nanoparticles and bioactive compounds can be obtained from SSF. The key factor in SSF processes is the choice of microorganisms and their substrates. Many fungal species can be used and are mainly used due their lower requirements of water, O2 and light. Residues rich in soluble and insoluble fiber are utilized by lignocellulolytic fungi because they have the enzymes that break fiber hard structure (lignases, celullases or hemicelullases). During the hydrolysis of lignin, some phenolic compounds are released but fungi also synthetize compounds such as mycophenolic acid, dicerandrol C, phenylacetates, anthraquinones, benzofurans and alkenyl phenols that have health beneficial effects such as antitumoral, antimicrobial, antioxidant and antiviral activities. Another important group of compounds synthetized by fungi during fermentation are polysaccharides that also have important health promoting properties. Fungal biofermentation has also proved to be a process which can release high contents of phenolics and it also increases the bioactivity of these compounds.

Purple sweet potato starch is known for its anthocyanin content and has a high carbohydrate content, especially starch. Starch extraction in purple sweet potato can cause browning due to the presence of PPO enzymes which results in decreased anthocyanin content in the resulting starch. Ascorbic acid can be used as an anti-browning agent. The analysis results obtained are the drying of purple sweet potato starch can be done for 4 hours because at that time the water content has been constant for a long time of further drying. The anthocyanin content of purple sweet potato starch decreases with increasing concentration of the addition of ascorbic acid, but the addition of ascorbic acid causes an increase in antioxidants of purple sweet potato starch because ascorbic acid is one type of antioxidant

Cocoa is a plantation commodity that requires fermentation to improve the quality of flavor and aroma. Research on changes in physical and chemical properties during the spontaneous fermentation process of fresh cocoa beans for weight scales of 20, 40 and 60 kg have been carried out. This study aims to obtain information as an indicator of the success rate of the fermentation process of fresh cocoa beans, both on a small and large scale. The fermentation process lasts for 6 days with stirring starting on the second day until the sixth day, with an interval of 24 hours. The study design uses a randomized block design method (RBD) with two factors, namely the weight scale of seeds per box and fermentation time with three replications. The data obtained were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Based on the observed parameter indicators, namely temperature, pH and total acid, there was no significant difference in the profile of the physico-chemical properties during the fermentation process between the three weight scale levels. The physico-chemical condition shows a straight relationship with the quality of fermented cocoa beans, in accordance with the results of the cut test.

Published: November 2019

Kecamatan Jenawi, merupakan salah satu kecamatan yang berada di wilayah Kabupaten Karanganyar. Fakultas Pertanian Universitas Sebelas Maret, Surakarta telah menjadikan kecamatan ini sebagai lokasi pilot project penanaman tanaman pisang hasil kultur jaringan, produksi dosen Fakultas Pertanian UNS. Oleh sebab itu di Jenawi dijumpai banyak tanaman pisang yang tumbuh dengan baik dengan produksi buah yang melimpah. Program IbM yang dilaksanakan ini merupakan program pengabdian kepada masyarakat yang dilaksanakan di Kelompok Wanita Tani Rejeki Mandiri dan Mukti Rahayu di Kecamatan Jenawi. Salah satu bagian tanaman yang pemanfaatannya masih sangat terbatas adalah batang pisang, khususnya bagian dalam yang berwarna putih, yang biasa disebut hati batang pisang. Permasalahan yang dijumpai adalah bahwa masyarakat di kecamatan Jenawi belum mengenal teknologi/cara pembuatan kerupuk dan dendeng berbahan dasar hati batang pisang. Melalui pembuatan kerupuk dan dendeng hati batang pisang, masyarakat dapat meningkatkan kemanfaatan tanaman pisang, dan dapat digunakan sebagai alternatif mata pencaharian baru. Hasil yang telah dicapai dalam kegiatan ini yaitu Pelatihan Tahap I berupa pembuatan kerupuk dan dendeng dari hati pisang yang telah dilaksanakan pada tanggal 9 Agustus 2017 pada 2 Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT).Antusiasme tampak terlihat dari peserta yang mayoritas merupakan ibu rumah tangga. Kegiatan ini dihadiri sekitar 50 orang peserta, pamong desa dan penyuluh pertanian. Dalam kegiatan ini juga diberikan bantuan kepada kedua KWT berupa oven gas, blender, wajan, baskom serta bahan-bahan keperluan pembuatan kerupuk dan dendeng. Pelatihan Tahap II dilaksanakan pada tanggal 8 September 2017 dengan agenda menguji kualitas baik dari segi rasa, bentuk dan gizi dari hasil olahan kerupuk dan dendeng tersebut. Kerupuk hati batang pisang hasil olahan ke dua KWT peserta pelatihan, telah memenuhi standar kerupuk pada umumnya yaitu renyah, dan gurih. Sedangkan produk olahan dendeng juga sudah menyerupai dendeng yang berbahan dasar daging sapi, hanya saja dari segi warna kurang mengkilap karena serat hati batang pisang tidak mengandung lemak. Oleh sebab itu ke dua jenis makanan hasil olahan hati batang pisang, utamanya kerupuk, dengan kemasan yang menarik siap diproduksi masal untuk dipasarkan secara luas. Kerupuk hati batang pisang dapat menjadi alternatif makanan camilan, dengan menambah perasa makanan seperti keju, bumbu barbeque, lada hitam, dan lain-lain.
A JAVA APPLICATION FOR OPTIMIZATION OF STOCK ALLOCATION IN CONTINGENCY LOGISTICS NETWORKS: COLONOR

Published: November 2019

Contingencies are
unexpected events or crises that cause a major threat for security and safety
of a particular population. Since they are unexpected events, the demand to
perform contingency operations as well as the supply that can be provided for
this can be modelled through probability distributions. Furthermore, before
contingencies occur one may want to hold stocks beforehand. Based on
interference theory between demand, supply and stocks, one can obtain a
reliability of that site, i.e. probability that the site can perform the
operations assigned based on the availability of resources for these
operations. This study develops a software design as a java application,
COLONOR, which optimizes the stock allocations, i.e. maximizes the reliability
of contingency logistics networks with a given budget and total stocks to
allocate. It assumes exponential demands and supplies, and the network
structure is such that the sites are arranged either in series or parallel. The
software can employ either genetic algorithm or total enumeration techniques to
solve the resulting non-linear, non-separable and non-convex mathematical model
and enables the users to specify the problem’s parameters such as demand and
supply rates, number of sites and network structure as well as the solution
approach.

El presente trabajo analiza la situación del italiano como lengua de trabajo del Grado de Traducción e Interpretación en España, de modo que se obtenga una visión panorámica de su presencia dentro de los planes de estudios de esta titulación y se justifique la necesidad de análisis de este perfil formativo. Para ello, se han analizado los planes de estudio de las 29 universidades donde se encuentra implantado el Grado de Traducción e Interpretación y se ha localizado aquellas en las que se imparte italiano. Actualmente, solo es posible cursar italiano como Lengua C o como Lengua D en un número reducido de instituciones. Esto supone un desequilibrio frente a otras lenguas (como el inglés, el francés y el alemán) en un doble sentido: en primer lugar, no es posible acceder al estudio del italiano como Lengua B en ninguna universidad española, con la consecuente jerarquización del conocimiento que el estudiante va a obtener; en segundo lugar, el número de instituciones que oferta italiano como Lengua C o D no es especialmente elevado.

TNFα drives the proliferation and inflammatory response, but not regenerative potential of Müller cells in the mouse retina
Authors: Niu Lianglaing , Fang Yuan , Yao Xiaoqian , Zhang Yi , Wu Jihong , Chen Dong Feng , Sun Xinghuai
Published: November 2019

Background Mouse Müller cells, considered dormant retinal progenitors, respond to retinal injury by undergoing reactive gliosis rather than displaying regenerative responses. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a key cytokine induced after injury, and implicated in mediating inflammatory and regenerative responses. However, the molecular events driving reactive gliosis and regenerative responses in Müller cells, and the role of TNFα in these processes, remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the effects of TNFα on Müller cell responses following injury. Methods To investigate the involvement of TNFα in retinal injury, adult C57BL/6J mice were subjected to treatment with light (5,000 lux) for 14 consecutive days; induction of TNFα was confirmed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). TNFα effects on Müller-cell proliferation were evaluated via 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation in culture. TNFα-mediated gene profile changes were examined using Affymetrix microarray, and gene ontology analysis was carried out to define the molecular pathways involved. Gene- and protein-expression changes were further verified by qPCR, western blot, and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results We showed that TNFα induced Müller cell proliferation and the expression of inflammatory and proliferation-related genes, including NFKBIA, Leukemia inhibitory factor, Interleukin-6, Janus kinase (Jak) 1, Jak2, Signal transducer and activator of transcription (Stat) 1, Stat2, Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) 7, and MAP4K4. Blockade of Jak/Stat and MAPK pathways attenuated TNFα-induced Müller cell proliferation. Moreover, we detected TNFα drove A1 phenotype-reactive gliosis, while Wnt attenuated TNFα-mediated induction of A1 phenotype and promoted an A2-like phenotype. Conclusion In Müller cells, TNFα triggered primarily inflammatory and reactive gliosis by activating Jak/Stat and MAPK-pathways without inducing progenitor cell/regeneration-related genes. Wnt signaling suppressed inflammation, and induced proliferation and expression of progenitor-cell genes in Müller cells. These results suggest that reactive gliosis and regenerative responses in Müller cells are regulated by independent mechanisms. Our study provides new insights into regulation of inflammatory and regenerative responses of Müller cells in the injured retina
Transformation of the Ukrainian banking system regulation: a new horizon of compliance with the international framework
Authors: Khudoliy Lyubov , Bronin Oleg
Published: November 2019

This article discusses the latest methodological recommendations of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision developed in response to the effects of the global financial crisis and known as Basel III. The purpose of the study is to explore scientific approaches to justifying bank regulation as a key condition for overcoming the economic crisis and improving financial sustainability. The object of research is Basel III instruments that will be implemented in the bank regulatory policy of Ukraine. The systematic approach and systemic thinking used in the article allow one to substantiate the expediency of Ukrainian banking institutions’ governance based on the risk-oriented approach and to determine the strategy of bank supervision for the next 1-3 years. The study evaluates the results of stress testing of the largest banks in Ukraine. Thus, the results confirm that the banking sector in Ukraine is sufficiently capitalized in the absence of macroeconomic shocks, but in case of a crisis, some of these banks are not protected. Therefore, the article formulates recommendations for improving the regulation of these banks, the phased implementation of Basel III, the application of new principles, standards, tools and methods, corporate governance and risk management in Ukrainian banks.
A cognitive model for managing the national innovation system parameters based on international comparisons (the case of the EU countries)
Authors: Khanin Igor , Shevchenko Gennadiy , Bilozubenko Vladimir , Korneyev Maxim
Published: November 2019

To carry out a comparative analysis of the EU countries’ national innovation systems (NIS), a feature vector has been compiled, covering three modules, namely, science, education, and innovation. The feature vector is a valid multidimensional data set of sixteen official statistics indices and two sub-indices of the Global Innovation Index. The development of a cognitive model for managing the NIS parameters required a preliminary three-stage empirical study to determine its elements. In the first stage, cluster analysis was performed (the k-means, metric – Euclidean distance algorithm was used). As a result, the EU countries were divided into four clusters (following multidimensional scaling estimates). In the second stage, a classification analysis (using decision trees) was carried out, which allowed determining three parameters that distinguish clusters (or classes) optimally. These parameters are recognized as important ones in terms of positioning the countries in the general ranking; that is, they can be considered as a priority for the NIS development and improving the countries’ positions in international comparisons. In the third stage, based on the authors’ approach, the significance (information content) of each key parameter is estimated. As a result, a cognitive model was compiled, taking into account the parameter significance. The model can be used in managing the NIS parameters, seeking to increase the system performance and improve the international position of a specific country. The model can also be used by partner countries, for example, Ukraine, as it demonstrates the landscape of EU innovative development and outlines the directions for priority development of NIS towards the European progress.

Published: November 2019

The research aimed to describe the Madurese color lexicons with plant attributes and to analyze those lexicons metaphorically. This research engaged 18 informants to denote Madurese color lexicons by showing 139 color cards. The referential comparison method was followed by sorting the decisive element technique through referential competence-in-dividing, and Connect Compare Equate as the advanced technique was used as the data analysis method. The research finds that 53 color lexicons with plant attributes in 8 Madurese color lexicons, namely potѐ ‘white’, celleng ‘black’, mѐra ‘red’, bhiru ‘green’, konѐng ‘yellow’, cokklat ‘brown’, bhiru ‘blue’, and bungo ‘purple’. Furthermore, these plant attributes can be classified into fruits, flowers, vegetables, seeds, spices, leaves, trees, part of the tree, and part of the fruit. The domination of plant attributes in Madurese color lexicons emerges due to the sociocultural factors embodied in Madurese ethnic group itself, those are (1) farming is Madurese main way of living, (2) Madurese ethnic group respect the nature as the place where they can pray and thank God, and (3) some objects associated with color lexicons are abundantly available at their surroundings, thus they frequently use it in their daily life.

The main aim of this work was to assess different suitable strategies for the remediation of groundwater contaminated with the leachate from an old, not functional landfill located next to Hořkovec open cast mine, in the Czech Republic. The leachate consisted of mainly chlorinated aliphatic compounds and aromatic volatile compounds. The site, that had already been treated, was observed to show rebounding effects after the first remediation treatment. This article analyses the possibilities of using different types of remediation technologies that include in-situ chemical oxidation (ISCO) with different oxidants (potassium permanganate, sodium permanganate and sodium persulfate), as well as in-situ bioremediation (ISB), and the combination of both types of treatment. From the results of the analysis it was concluded that the best option for this case was to carry out a pre-treatment of the area by ISCO with sodium persulfate as the oxidant agent and then a further biological treatment.
Perspectives beyond the meter: a Q-study for modern segmentation of drinking water customers
Authors: Brouwer Stijn , Pieron Miranda , Sjerps Rosa , Etty Thijs
Published: November 2019

Given the growing interest among drinking water companies in the customer ‘beyond the meter’, generic accounts of the ‘average user’ no longer suffice. Yet, segmentation on the basis of specific characteristics or behaviour seems to offer a limited explanatory value. Hence, there is an increasing need for more detailed empirical knowledge of the potential for, and significance of, customer segmentation on the basis of subjective views and preferences. To this end, this paper not only explores different customer perspectives on drinking water, but also quantifies their prevalence and distribution, at a deep analytical level, in the Netherlands. The paper draws on empirical data collected from both a Q-study, encompassing a focus group and more than 30 interviews, and two large-scale surveys with a 3-year interval. We conclude that four customer perspectives on drinking water can be distinguished: (1) ‘aware & committed’; (2) ‘down to earth & confident’; (3) ‘egalitarian & solidary’; and (4) ‘quality & health concerned’. The modern customer segmentation approach in this paper offers deeper insights into the satisfaction, interests, concerns, and sociodemographic characteristics of customers related to these perspectives, which can aid companies in their quest to become more customer-oriented and responsive to different customer needs.
Application of bimetallic Al-doped ZnO nano-assembly for heavy metal removal and decontamination of wastewater
Authors: Jawed Aquib , Pandey Lalit M.
Published: November 2019

In the present study, bimetallic aluminium doped zinc oxide (AZO) nano-assemblies were synthesized for heavy metal removal and disinfection of wastewater. These bimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by a simple co-precipitation method and characterized using field emission transmission electron microscopy (FETEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), a Litesizer, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The AZO NPs was tested for lead removal at various environmental conditions and optimized at pH 4 and 25 °C. The kinetic data were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order model and the process consisted of both surface adsorption and intraparticle diffusion. Al doping enhanced the surface charge of AZO NPs four fold as compared to ZnO, which improved colloidal stability and contributed towards its reusability. AZO NPs exhibited excellent removal efficiency of 86% over three adsorption-desorption cycles. The adsorption was found to be an exothermic and physicochemical process. The prepared AZO NPs were also used to treat a real wastewater sample and found to effectively remove Pb(II) and kill all the bacteria present.
La música de Lupita. Esbozos para una antropología de lo contemporáneo en una comunidad rural mexicana
Authors: Contreras Román Raúl Hernán
Published: November 2019

En este artículo se busca esbozar una antropología de lo contemporáneo que fundamente el planteamiento del tiempo presente y la imaginación del pasado y el futuro de una comunidad rural e indígena del centro de México. Mediante un acercamiento etnográfico presentado en cuatro escenas que tienen a la música como argumento, se abordan las dinámicas de construcción sociotemporal de la contemporaneidad. Con ello, el artículo hace una aportación a la escasa literatura en español sobre la antropología del tiempo y, en específico, sobre la antropología de lo contemporáneo en comunidades rurales, intentando ir más allá de los abordajes que se abocan a la búsqueda de la anterioridad pura o que, por el contrario, se concentran en la exaltación de lo nuevo entendido como ruptura con el pasado. De ahí que se concluya que lo contemporáneo no es el empate entre lo viejo y lo nuevo. Es la disrupción del tiempo que permite precisamente aprehender el tiempo vivo, el de la situación, el del transcurrir que siempre tiene un pie en el “no más” y otro en el “no aún”. Lo contemporáneo es el tiempo sociohistórico de la inteligibilidad, el tiempo en común, aquel presente compartido, que otorga viabilidad al presente etnográfico y que permite la imaginación histórica y la del futuro en la teoría antropológica.
Tiempo destrozado, de Amparo Dávila, como ciclo cuentístico
Authors: Sardiñas Fernández José Miguel
Published: November 2019

Este artículo tiene como objetivo identificar y describir rasgos del libro Tiempo destrozado (1959), de Amparo Dávila (Zacatecas, México, 1928), que permitan vincularlo al género de los ciclos cuentísticos y valorar la productividad de este concepto en la generación de dos niveles de sentido: relaciones entre cuentos y libro como conjunto. Se muestra la filiación del libro a los ciclos cuentísticos por el funcionamiento de un tema unificador y de patrones dinámicos. El libro es un muestrario de vidas destruidas por la presencia, la acción, la intervención o la ausencia de personajes que forman parte del entorno de los protagonistas. Este es el primer estudio de Tiempo destrozado con el método de los ciclos cuentísticos en el que se aporta una interpretación del sentido de destrucción que articula todo el volumen, con fundamento en el análisis de los cuentos y de las relaciones dentro del conjunto.
Por una primera enseñanza universal, uniforme, pública, libre y moderna. Notas sobre los alcances y el influjo de la política educativa gaditana en Nueva España
Authors: Escobedo Delgado Martín
Published: November 2019

El artículo describe la crisis política y analiza los alcances, las limitaciones, el influjo y el legado de la legislación gaditana en la Nueva España. Además de auxiliarse de la historiografía del tema y el periodo, se apoya en la historia política de la educación. El proyecto educativo gaditano es importante, no por la implementación y los resultados, sino por el legado de este: laicismo, gratuidad, universalización. El trabajo recupera el contexto político de las propuestas educativas gaditanas, aspecto que generalmente es omitido por la historiografía. Se concluye que la primera enseñanza en la Constitución de 1812 fue concebida de acuerdo con los planteamientos políticos liberales, que tuvieron hondo influjo en la Nueva España.

How is related the digital marketing innovation and e-leadership in smes. Towards a gender study
Authors: Mejía-Trejo Juan
Published: November 2019

This paper proposes a construct that relates three previously published models: leadership style, e-leadership skills, and innovation in digital marketing, as a model that reveals how their interrelationships depend on the gender of the manager, in order to achieve the improvement of small and medium enterprises within their digital marketing sector. To this end, documentary research was carried out to determine how gender responds to the aforementioned construct. Among the results, it stands out that there are noticeable differences between the way in which the gender of managers obeys different leadership styles, electronic leadership skills and digital marketing innovation for small and medium enterprises. It is concluded that female executives have greater transformational leadership, are more directed at the business intelligence of small and medium enterprises and the performance of the innovation model, compared to their male counterparts.
El Esquema Legal de Protección sui generis de los Conocimientos Tradicionales Asociados a la Medicina Tradicional en México
Authors: Martínez Aguilar Gabriela , Arellanes Cancino Nimcy
Published: November 2019

En el artículo se analizan las aplicaciones del esquema de protección legal sui generis en propiedad intelectual de la medicina tradicional mexicana. La investigación es cualitativa, con aproximación a la investigación acción, y basada en una revisión exhaustiva de fuentes de archivos nacionales e internacionales. Se apunta que es viable la adaptación de las particularidades a una protección defensiva mediante la estrategia de bases de datos para evitar la apropiación ilegítima. Esto implica la identificación de categorías jurídicas suficientemente inclusivas de aquello que hay que proteger, ya sean atemporales o que reconozcan la variabilidad cultural. El trabajo contribuye a distinguir el derecho individual y el colectivo, así como a favorece la defensa de los recursos bióticos asociados a la medicina tradicional.
Detection of Metallothionein Proteins by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA)
Authors: Jia Qingyun , Dahms Hans-Uwe , Wang Lan
Published: November 2019

Metallothioneins (MTs) are low-molecular-weight, cysteine-rich proteins that bind to heavy
metals. MTs play a key role in the homeostasis of metal ions, maintaining intracellular redox equilibria
and free radical scavenging. In several studies, under different conditions such as cancer development,
drug therapy and heavy metal stress, the unique structural changes and functional effects of MT were
studied. Although several assays are available to monitor the content and type of Metallothionein (MT)
from environmental samples or in biomedical assays, Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA)
became the preferred method of MT detection. ELISA is low in cost, specific, simple, and efficient.
This review evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of using different types of ELISA in the
detection of metallothioneins from environmental or clinical samples as well as ways of its validation
and cross-validation.
