DEVELOPMENT OF AN EXPERIMENTAL MODEL OF AVITAMINOSIS F
Authors: Levitsky A. , Lapinska A. , Selivanskaya I.
Published: July 2020

The article analyzes the role of essential polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), especially omega-3 series in humans and animals. The biosynthesis of essential PUFA in humans and animals is very limited, so they must be consumed with food (feed). Тhe ratio of omega-3 and omega-6 PUFA is very important. Biomembranes of animal cells contain about 30% PUFA with a ratio of ω-6/ ω-3 1-2. As this ratio increases, the physicochemical properties of biomembranes and the functional activity of their receptors change. The regulatory function of essential PUFA is that in the body under the action of oxygenase enzymes (cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase) are formed extremely active hormone-like substances (eicosanoids and docosanoids), which affect a number of physiological processes: inflammation, immunity, metabolism. Moreover, ω-6 PUFA form eicosanoids, which have pro-inflammatory, immunosuppressive properties, and ω-3 PUFAs form eicosanoids and docosanoids, which have anti-inflammatory and immunostimulatory properties. Deficiency of essential PUFA, and especially ω-3 PUFA, leads to impaired development of the body and its state of health, which are manifestations of avitaminosis F. Prevention and treatment of avitaminosis F is carried out with drugs that contain PUFA. To create new, more effective vitamin F preparations, it is necessary to reproduce the model of vitamin F deficiency. An experimental model of vitamin F deficiency in white rats kept on a fat –free diet with the addition of coconut oil, which is almost completely free of unsaturated fatty acids, and saturated fatty acids make up almost 99 % of all fatty acids was developed. The total content of ω-6 PUFA (sum of linoleic and arachidonic acids), the content of ω-3 PUFA (α-linolenic, eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids) in neutral lipids (triglycerides and cholesterol esters) defined. Тhe content of ω-6 PUFA under the influence of coconut oil decreased by 3.3 times, and the content of ω-3 PUFA - by 7.5 times. Тhe influence of coconut oil, the content of ω-6 PUFA decreased by 2.1 times, and the content of ω-3 PUFA - by 2.8 times. The most strongly reduces the content of ω-3 PUFA, namely eicosapentaenoic, coconut oil, starting from 5 %. Consumption of FFD with a content of 15 % coconut oil reduces the content of eicosapentaenoic acid to zero, ie we have an absolute deficiency of one of the most important essential PUFAs, which determined the presence of vitamin F deficiency.
AGGREGATED COMPLEXES FOR RICE GRAIN PROCESSING
Authors: Petrov V. , Zhdanov A. , Mazej R.
Published: July 2020

The paper considers various designs of aggregated complexes for the processing of rice grain. Their technological schemes were built and analyzed, and a breakdown into modules was performed. This allowed us to group the various designs of units and summarize their technological capabilities. The general reduced technological scheme of rice grain processing is considered. The noted variations are as far as practical applications with and without a grain cleaning module. Various schemes of hulling of grain and selection of hulled grain from unlulled are presented. The technological schemes with various hulling machines are analyzed (the Engleberg hulling machine, with rubberized rolls, centrifugal action), which have their own characteristics. The differences in the use of paddy machines and trimers for sorting grain after hulling are considered. The cylindrical trieurs used to select the rice kernel have an original technological scheme (company Yanmar). This allows you to simplify technological communications and make the unit more compact. The units use more compact paddy machines (reduced size, number of tiers, etc.), which, of course, affects their performance. The most common combined machine with a single-pass technological scheme (which was named after the first inventor and manufacturer, a hulling machine from Satake) is considered. In addition to laboratory equipment, centrifugal hulling machines are used in grain processing units, which gives additional advantages (a more compact scheme, due to the combination of several technological operations, hulling, transporting the grain stream, and air separation. For the majority of broken and unbroken grains sieve separators are used for simple circuits. Separators with vertical rotation axis, that allows to transport the rice to a predetermined height. This makes it possible to link this separator, for example with electronic scales.

Published: July 2020

This article explores how a disability justice framework would provide greater access to law school and therefore the legal profession for disabled students of color; specifically, disabled Black, Indigenous, and Latinx students. Using DisCrit principles formulated by Subini Annamma, David Connor, and Beth Ferri (2013), this article provides suggestions for incorporating a disability justice lens to legal education. In doing so, this article specifically recognizes the work of three disability justice activist-attorney-scholars, Lydia X.Z. Brown, Talila “TL” Lewis, and Katherine Pérez, and considers lessons from their advocacy and leadership that can apply in the law school setting.
Effect of both Modified & Unmodified Nanosilica on Morphological and Thermal Properties of Model TPE Blend Systems
Authors: Hui Dr. Shalmali
Published: July 2020

A comparative study between the modified and unmodified nanosilica to fine tune the morphological and thermal properties of a model low-density polyethylene (LDPE) – ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) thermoplastic elastomer blend system is explored in this article. The nanosilica
particles were melt-blended with the LDPE/EVA system through the variation of the sequence of addition. The blends were compression molded, and their morphological and thermal properties were evaluated. The incorporation of nanosilica particles produced a drastic improvement in thermal stability
as compared to the control blend. The morphological studies clearly indicated that modified nanosilica had a homogeneous dispersion in the bi -component polymer matrix leading to strengthening of silica-polymer interface. Interestingly, after modification the sequence did not play a major
role in affecting the morphology of this system. Overall, although the properties of the unmodified nanosilica filled blends are strong functions of the sequence of addition, but, interestingly, the properties of the modified nanosilica filled blends do not depend much on the preparation procedure.

Authors: Sarkar Keka , Mondal Paramita , Banerjee Rajat , Chatterjee Sumana
Published: July 2020

Two different Coagulase negative staphylococcal environmental isolates BP/SU1(Staphylococcus epidermidis; MTCC accession number:9538) and BP/SU2 (Staphylococcus haemolyticus; MTCC accession number:5731) show a tendency to propagate in the biofilm mode specially on low surface energy
mediums. In this study we have co-related the biofilm formation of the two species on polystyrene tissue culture plates with the quantity of utilizable sugar present in the culture medium. The dispersal of the same biofilms with common dispersing agents like NaIO4, DNase, and proteolytic enzymes
has also been studied. Results indicate that though polysaccharides undoubtedly enhance the biofilm formation for both the species, their role as biofilm - material adhesive agents are minimal for these two strains.
A Comparative study of cyanobacteria and microalgae for biofuel production
Authors: Banerjee Ananya
Published: July 2020

The use of algae for producing biofuel is expected to play a critical role as an alternative energy source in the near future, particularly in light of depleting fossil fuel reserves and the adverse environmental impact on fossil fuels.This study discusses the production of biofuel
from cyanobacteria and microalgae by various processes. Microalgae and cyanobacteria can produce high amount of lipids and that is the sole reason for they being identified as a potential biodiesel feedstock. They also have the ability to fix CO2 and have rapid growth rates. It
is observed that algae can be converted to oily substances that grows in Carbon-dioxide enriched air. It also can contribute to solve major problems of air pollution resulting from CO2 evolution This experiment is undertaken to know the proper trans-esterification, amount of biodiesel
production (ester) from cyanobacteria and microalgae species. In this experiment, common species such as Cyanobacterium aponinum and Spirogyra sp. are used to compare the amount of biodiesel production. It is observed that C.aponinum can produce high amount of algal
oil and biodiesel (ester) than Spirogyra sp. However, biomass when calculated was found to be higher in C.aponinum compared to Spirogyra sp. The paper indicates that biodiesel can be produced from both the species with C.aponinum being a better one.
A study on the toxicity analysis and biodegradation of bisphenol A with the help of bacterial and fungal species
Authors: Ganguly Anish , Bhowmik Shrestha
Published: July 2020

Discarding of plastic is one of the acute predicaments confronted in the environment today, cause majority of plastics are resistant to bio degradation. In biosphere, some microorganisms are available which got the potential to atrophy large variety types of plastic under suitable conditions,
but due to the intricate composition of these polymers along with their hydrophobic nature, biological decomposition is a time consuming process. This problem can be mitigated by the inception of polymers and its derivatives from biological origins or by the production of large number of plastic
degrading microbes. Some microbial stains mainly bacteria which got the ability to produce and store biopolymers under a defined environmental conditions and utilizing these as carbon sources and produces biomaterials like polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) or biological polyester. Thus they are
innocuous by not producing toxic by-products and can be degraded easily by microorganisms. In this study, we have discussed the toxicity of Bisphenol A, a potent compound of plastic and also its biodegradation pathways.

Authors: Abou-Shaara Hossam F. , Kelany Mahmoud M.
Published: July 2020

Identifying vegetation from satellite images is very necessary for studies related to agricultural sector. Enhancing the quality and classification of satellite images is a challenge especially when study areas contain complex vegetation. The study aimed to enhance the image classification based on using extraction tool of the ArcGIS. In the present study, the classification of Landsat satellite images before and after extracting specific areas covering vegetation using the ArcGIS was compared. Two regions in Egypt, one with complex vegetation located at Siwa Oasis and the other one with simple vegetation located at Abu Simbel region, were used in this study. Then, several polygons were used to extract specific areas covering vegetation from the satellite images. Images were subsequently classified using Iso cluster unsupervised classification tool. The classification outcomes were compared between the original images before extraction with images after extraction. The results showed that extraction tool greatly enhanced the quality and classification of the image and it was possible to identify different types of vegetation.

An Analysis of China’s Proposal to Control and Centrally Manage the Internet
Authors: Dupont Alan
Published: July 2020

Governments and telecommunications companies have invested heavily in measures designed to protect overall system security. But these measures may not be enough if China is successful in setting the rules and designing the architecture of a new internet, because the one-party state’s internet vision reflects authoritarian values that are diametrically opposed to ours. China has suggested a radical change to the way the internet functions to the International Telecommunications Union. This would bake authoritarianism into the architecture underpinning the web, giving state-run internet service providers granular control over citizens’ use. The authoritarian state’s ability to monitor and control undersea fibre optic cables is emerging as a major national security issue for Australia and other democracies. The world could split into two separate information worlds, one led by the US and the other by China. A Balkanised internet is not in Australia’s interest. We must engage with friends and allies to come up with a fit-for-purpose world wide web that is more efficient, secure, user friendly and compatible with democracy.
Remembering Stanley Cavell
Authors: Davies Byron
Published: July 2020

This memorial notice for Stanley Cavell was first published on the Harvard Philosophy Department website on June 25, 2018 and appears here with the department’s permission.

For over four decades one of the most distinctive and original contributors to American letters—and one of the world’s most significant proponents of what philosophy could learn from the arts—was a member of the community of Emerson Hall. But so long as Stanley Cavell is best known just as a philosopher who wrote about Shakespeare and movies (as he was first introduced to me), and even if his unassailable institutional legacy is as the advisor of generations of accomplished philosophers (and film and literary scholars), the task for philosophers memorializing Cavell is to communicate what he taught us, and in particular what he taught us to do.
Revisión conjunta de fuentes primordiales para autoabastecimiento energético urbano e incidencia solar como principal fuente, en contexto de ciudad ecuatorial-andina
Authors: Zalamea Esteban , Barrán-Escandón Antonio
Published: July 2020

Este trabajo realiza la revisión conjunta de una serie de investigaciones de posibilidades tecnológicas para determinar la potencial auto-aprovisionamiento energético desde recursos urbanos en ciudades andinas ecuatoriales. A partir de ello se establecen resultados obtenidos desde los recursos energéticos disponibles. Inicialmente se describe, qué posibilidades reales existirían en Cuenca Ecuador a través de encuestas, acorde a criterio de expertos; se presentan cinco alternativas seleccionadas y una sexta complementaria (biomasa desde podas realizada ulteriormente) y se resume una pre-estimación de potencial entre ellas. Se detecta que, la energía solar es por lejos, la alternativa con mayor potencial y con mejor adaptabilidad desde aspectos cualitativos y cuantitativos. Se revisa metodologías aplicadas para la determinación de potencial fotovoltaico con los principales resultados encontrados en Cuenca. Se mide que con las tecnologías analizadas, conjuntamente se puede abastecer sobre el 14 % de las demandas urbanas actuales; no obstante, de convertirse las desmandas de combustibles a eléctricas, el potencial se incrementa al 39 %, gracias al potencial solar y fotovoltaico. Se concluye que las condiciones ecuatoriales andinas existentes en Cuenca son de las más ventajosas en el mundo para alcanzar máximos estándares energéticos en edificios. Además, la alternativa para alcanzar un máximo auto aprovisionamiento es incluir transporte eléctrico para abastecerse desde el excedente solar urbano.

Published: July 2020

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a viabilidade da vermicompostagem para reaproveitamento dos resíduos orgânicos domésticos (ROD). O trabalho foi realizado por meio da pré-compostagem e vermicompostagem. Na pré-compostagem e vermicompostagem foram testados os tratamentos: T1 (4:1:1 – Folhas + esterco caprino + ROD), T2 (4:1:0,5 – Folhas + esterco caprino + ROD), na proporção de ROD em termos de volume, em que a unidade de medida foi um balde de 15 L. O processo de pré-compostagem foi conduzido ao longo de 30 dias e a temperatura foi monitorada diariamente. No final do processo de pré-compostagem e vermicompostagem o monitoramento foi por meio de análises de umidade, pH, condutividade elétrica, carbono total, nitrogênio total, relação C/N, fósforo e potássio. Além da caracterização química dos compostos, foram realizadas a contagem das minhocas no início e final da vermicompostagem. Na segunda etapa do processo, a temperatura máxima atingida foi de 39º e 36°C após o 30º dia, nos tratamentos T1 e T2, respectivamente. Na terceira etapa, o pH final ficou na faixa de 6,4 a 6,6. O tratamento T1 proporcionou melhor adaptação das minhocas. Os valores para relações C/N reduziram em todos os tratamentos, indicando a maturação dos compostos. Apesar dos tratamentos não apresentarem todas as condições exigidas para comercialização, nota-se a viabilidade e o potencial da utilização dos resíduos orgânicos biodegradáveis na produção do vermicomposto como uma alternativa prática e sustentável para adubação.

Russia took the advantage of the contribution of the Armenian armed organizations in order to possess Istanbul, straits around it, Eastern Anatolia, to weaken Turkey, to be strengthen in the Southern Caucasus, organized the rebellion of the Armenians living in Turkey against the government. Russian ruling circles put forward the Armenian matter in order to take advantage of them. Armenians involved in the war to create their own government by obtaining the territory including Van, Bitlis, Tigranakert, Erzurum, Kharberd and Sebastya, as well as Cilicia from Turkey, to solve their Armenian problem. But in fact, Russia, France and England tried to blow to Turkey pretending to try for building an independent Armenian government. The grade of contribution of Armenian military units in the First World War can be characterized as following: 1. Creating the Armenian volunteer units. 2. Establishing the regular battalions and infantry regiments and forming the national corpuses. The organizations of Hnchak and Dashnaksutyun actively participated in creating the Armenian volunteer units. Dashnaks mobilized 40 000 people to destroy the Turkish people. They established tens of khumbas. The Armenian volunteer units were commanded by Andranic Ozanyan, Dro, Amazasp, Keri, Checho, Vardan. Armenian volunteer units which were supposed to move in 4 directions, should act in the directions where the Armenian people were densely populated. These 4 Armenian volunteer units fight against Turks in all important combat operations from Sarigamish to Erzurum. The same time Russian army and Armenians triggered the rebellion of the local population against the Turkish government. 50000 of Armenians were fighting in French, England and USA armies. The Eastern legion of Armenians was established in French army on November 1916. On November 15, 1918, the Eastern Legion was named Armenian legion. The number of the Armenians in the legion riched to 4000. In the beginning of 1916, there was an announcement about subordination of the military detachments to army and establishment of infantry regiments based on that. Establishment of the separate Armenian corpus started at the end of December 1917. In 1917, 8 Armenian shooter regiments were established. From the mentioned 8 regiments two Armenian shooter divisions, the special Armenian division of Andranic, 3 infantry brigades of western Armenians in the Southern Caucasus region, some guerrilla troops in Erevan, Igdir guerrilla infantry and rider regiments, Zeytun regiment in Tbilisi were established.

Published: July 2020

This paper presents an Edge-based color image segmentation derived from the method of Particle Motion in a Vector Image Fields (PMVIF) that could previously be applied only to monochrome images. Instead of using an edge vector field derived from a gradient vector field and a normal compressive vector field derived from a Laplacian-gradient vector field, two novel orthogonal vector fields, directly computed from a color image, one parallel and another orthogonal to the edges, were used in the model to force a particle to move along the object edges. The normal compressive vector field is derived from the center-to-centroid vectors of local color distance images. Next, the edge vector field is derived by taking the normal compressive vector field, multiplied by differences of auxiliary image pixels to obtain a vector field analogous to a Hamiltonian gradient vector field. Using the PASCAL Visual Object Classes Challenge 2012 (VOC2012) and the Berkeley Segmentation Data Set and Benchmarks 500 (BSDS500), the benchmark score of the proposed method is provided in comparison with those of the traditional PMVIF, Watershed, SLIC, K-means, Mean shift, and JSEG. The proposed method yields better RI, GCE, NVI, BDE, Dice coefficients, faster computation time, and noise resistance.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is becoming the leading cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), liver-related mortality, and liver transplantation. There is reasonable epidemiological cohort data to recommend surveillance of patients with NAFLD based upon the incidence of HCC. The American Gastroenterology Association (AGA) expert review published in 2020 recommend that NAFLD patients with cirrhosis or advanced fibrosis estimated by non-invasive tests (NITs) should consider HCC surveillance. NITs include fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) index, the enhanced liver fibrosis (ELF) test, FibroScan, and MR elastography. The recommended surveillance modality is abdominal ultrasound (US) given that it is cost effective and noninvasive with good sensitivity. However, US is limited in obese patients and those with NAFLD. In NAFLD patients with a high likelihood of having an inadequate US or if US is attempted but inadequate, CT or MRI may be utilized. The GALAD score, consisting of age, gender, AFP, lens culinaris-agglutinin-reactive fraction of AFP (AFP-L3), and protein induced by vitamin K absence or antagonist-II (PIVKA-II), can help to identify high risk of incident HCC in NAFLD patients. Innovative parameters including Mac-2 binding protein glycated isomer , type IV collagen 7S, free apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage, combination of single nucleoside polymorphisms are expected to be established. Considering a large number of NAFLD population, optimal screening tests must meet several criteria including high sensitivity, cost effectiveness and availability.
Multiple Scattering Theory for Strong Scattering Heterogeneous Elastic Continua with Triaxial Inhomogeneities: Theoretical Fundamentals and Applications
Authors: He Huijing
Published: July 2020

The geometry of mesoscopic inhomogeneities plays an important role in determining the macroscopic propagation behaviors of elastic waves in a heterogeneous medium. Non-equiaxed inhomogeneities can lead to anisotropic wave velocity and attenuation. Developing an accurate scattering theory to describe the quantitative relation between the microstructure features and wave propagation parameters is of fundamental importance for seismology and ultrasonic nondestructive characterization. This work presents a multiple scattering theory for strongly scattering elastic media with general tri-axial heterogeneities. A closed analytical expression of the shape-dependent singularity of the anisotropic Green’s tensor for the homogeneous reference medium is derived by introducing a proper non-orthogonal ellipsoidal coordinate. Renormalized Dyson’s equation for the coherent wave field is then derived with the help of Feynman’s diagram technique and the first-order-smoothing approximation. The exact dispersion curves and the inverse Q-factors of coherent waves in several representative medium models for the heterogeneous lithosphere are calculated numerically. Numerical results for small-scale heterogeneities with the aspect ratio varying from 1 to 7 show satisfactory agreement with those obtained from real earthquakes. The results for velocity dispersion give rise to a novel explanation to the formation mechanism of different seismic phases. The new model has potential applications in seismology and ultrasonic microstructure characterization.

Published: July 2020

Waste released from sugar factories has a huge amount of inorganic and organic matter whose effect on plant is different when used in different concentrations. Hence, the effects of sugar factory effluent on the morphological and biochemical parameters of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum Linn.) were studied by using the different concentrations of effluent for irrigation of chickpeas plant. The experiment was conducted at Botanical Garden, Department of Biochemistry, Bhaila (PG) College, Bhaila (Saharanpur), Uttar Pradesh. In the experiment, pots were arranged in a completely randomized design, replicated by six times and were labeled for the various treatments viz. 0%, 10%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% v/v. After that, chickpea plants were grown up to 10 days, in the soil irrigated with different concentrations of sugar factory effluent. It was observed that sugar factory effluent promoted the growth of chickpea seeds at 10–25% concentration, but its lethal impacts were noted when concentrations were above 50–100%. Hence, it was found that at lower concentrations (upto 25%), sugar factory effluent behaves as compost for better growth of chickpeas, but at high concentrations, it shows toxicity and behaves as a pollutant. Moreover, it makes the speed of biochemical reactions slow in chickpeas. Therefore, sugar factory effluent can be used for irrigation of chickpeas after proper dilution.
