This study aims to determine the effect of surfactant concentration on Quercetin SLM as a potential carrier of respiratory diseases, especially ones resulting from oxidative stress injury. Quercetin is a natural antioxidant with high activity. SLM was formed with 5% compritol 888 ATO as a lipid and different concentrations of poloxamer 188 as a surfactant. SLM was produced by a combination of emulsification and sonication involving freeze drying. SLM is characterized by organolepsis, morphology, yield, particle size, drug loading, and entrapment efficiency. The antioxidant activity of quercetin SLMs was tested using the ABTS method. SLMs are characterized as having round and smooth morphology, high yield (F1 88.53%; F2 91.44%; F3 92.87%); particle size (F1 1.81 um; F2 1.90 um; F3 1.94 um); high drug loading (F1 15.96%; F2 13.74%; F3 13.19%); and high entrapment efficiency (F1 96.53%; F2 87.94%; F3 87.48%). Increasing surfactant concentration did not produce a significant difference between formulas. Quercetin SLM showed high antioxidant activity (Quercetin 94.43%; F1 94.35%; F2 94.36%; F3 94.37%). SLM was stable at storage temperatures between 25°C and 40°C. The effect of surfactant can be seen on particle size, drug loading, and entrapment efficiency at 40°C. Results of in vivo deposition study indicated that all SLM formulas were able to deliver quercetin to the lungs. Increasing the concentration of surfactant in Quercetin SLMs made no difference to the lung deposition as confirmed by observations conducted at 1 hour and 4 hours. Quercetin SLM has the potential for lung delivery by inhalation.
INTERNATIONAL ANTI-CORRUPTION STANDARDS IN THE PRIVATE SPHERE
Authors: Syroid Tetyana
Published: July 2024

The article examines the international legal basis for combating corruption of a universal and regional nature, which is recognized by standards and contains norms for preventing this offense in the private sphere. In particular, attention is paid to the provisions of the only universal international treaty - the UN Convention against Corruption (UNCAC), in which the norms for combating corruption in the private sector were established. It is noted that the provisions of the UNCAC became the basis for the development of a comprehensive response to the global problem.

The provisions of the treaties (The Criminal Law Convention on Corruption (ETS 173), Additional Protocol to the Convention (ETS 191), Council of Europe Criminal Law Convention on Corruption (ETS 174)) and advisory norms adopted within the framework of the Council of Europe on countering corruption. It is emphasized that the approach of this organization to the fight against corruption has three interrelated aspects: development of pan-European norms and standards, monitoring of their compliance, as well as provision of technical assistance to states and regions.

The focus is on the anti-corruption norms of the European Union (Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, directives, sectoral norms, etc.) and the policy of the Union regarding the reform of existing legal prescriptions and relevant measures in this area. It is noted that a feature of EU acts is the emphasis on the role of the private sector as a partner in the fight against corruption.

An analysis of the legal instruments of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on combating corruption, bribery and promoting integrity in the public and private sectors was carried out, and it was emphasized that the OECD is the main source of recommendations and guidelines in the field of business integrity. Practical materials, the purpose of which is to provide assistance to member states of the organization in implementing the provisions of treaty norms in the field of responsible business behavior of business entities, are also significant. Appropriate conclusions have been made.

In recent years, the researchof bubbles,partially circular structures in the interstellar medium, consisting of dust and gas, has received the considerable attention. The analysis of the structure and evolution of bubbles provides insight into the conditions under which stars and planets form inthe interstellar medium. Dust bubbles are inextricably linked with star formation regions and are powerful tools for studying the interaction of young stellar objects with their environment at various stages of evolution.The main goal of this articleisto study the region of the N126 dust bubble, search for and identify young stellar objects. Identification of young stellar objects by their fluxes at infrared wavelengths is relatively recent, and identification criteria are still at the stage of improvement. Therefore, in this article, the criteria for identifying young stellar objects were used according to the works of Koenig X.P. (2012), Koenig X.P. & Leisawitz D.V. (2014) and Fischer W.J. (2016), which are based on analysis of WISE observational datain the near-and mid-infrared bands W1 (3.4 μm), W2 (4.6 μm), W3 (12 μm), and W4 (22 μm). The datafrom the 2MASS and AllWISE catalogswith reliable non-zero fluxes of infrared radiation sourceswere used in that work. For the researched dust bubble, young stellar objects of class 0 (protostars) and class I were not detected. 4 objects of class II, 1 object of the class of transition disks and 48 objects of class III were identified. Energy distributions in the spectra for class II objectswere constructed, which also confirmed their evolutionary status. For all identified YSOs, color diagrams were constructed showing the locations of the found objects with their corresponding areas of evolution. Maps of the distribution of YSOs in space are analyzed, which indicate possible signs of an initiated star formation process in the N126 dust bubble.
Investigation of the processes of excitation of bound states of a hydrogen atom

Published: July 2024

One of the most important areas of plasma physics is the physics of elementary processes, that is, the physics of processes occurring during collisions of molecules, atoms, ions, electrons and photons. The composition of plasma, its thermodynamic, transport, optical and other properties are determined by the processes occurring in the plasma system, as well as their speeds. For this reason, by analyzing collision processes, it is possible to investigate certain properties of the plasma. Traditionally, the study of elementary processes within a specific model begins with the study of the scattering cross section, when the first estimates are made using simple methods. These methods include the Born method, which can and should be applied in practice.In this work, studies were carried out of the influence of collective effects in plasma on the states and energies of hydrogen atoms and hydrogen-like ions, as well as on excitation processes. Quantum mechanics methods were used in the research process, including the variational method and the perturbation theory, especially the Born approximation for inelastic scattering processes. As a result of the work, data were obtained based on the Born approximation for the process of excitation of a hydrogen atom by electron impact. The Born approximation shows better results in the case of high-energy collisions. The results obtained during the study have scientific and experimental significance, since they make it possible to determine the velocity coefficients through the calculation of scattering cross sections. These coefficients, in turn, are necessary to solve the kinetic equation used to describe the sedimentation (concentration) of particles in the plasma.

The present workis devoted to studying the effect of temperature on the formation of a submicron-sized particlesof lead sulfide (PbS). Lead sulfide samples were obtained by chemicalbath deposition method. 25 ml of an aqueous solution of lead nitratePb(NO3)2, 75 ml of sodium hydroxide NaOH and 50 ml of thiourea CH4N2S with molar concentrations of 0.18 M (1.52 g), 0.38 M (1.151 g) and 0.11 M (0.397 g), respectively, were used as reagents. In the process of obtaining samples, solutions of lead nitrate and sodium hydroxide were initially mixed at temperatures of 70°C and 100°C, then a thiourea solution was added to this mixture. It was found that temperature has an effect on the formation of PbS structures. It is shown that at a temperature of 100°C isolated particles are formed, whereas at a temperature of 70°C a film is formed. The morphology and elemental composition of the obtained lead sulfide (PbS) samples were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the surface structure was studied using an atomic force microscope (AFM). As a result of the study of the morphology and texture of the surface of lead sulfide samples, the average size of isolated particles was determined, which is ~144 nm, and these particles also had a cubic shape with a smooth surface.

Published: July 2024

Both liquid and gaseous mixes have significant significance in numerous natural and artificial processes. This elucidates the comprehensive examination of such systems in a diverse array of various applications. The presence of several processes of heat and mass transfer in gas mixtures without an interfacial boundary in the system causes the emergence of thermoconcentration gravitational fluxes, resulting in density inhomogeneity of the medium. Isothermal diffusion in helium and methane gas mixtures in a stationary medium of propane and nitrous oxide ballast gases at various pressures has been experimentally studied. It is shown that in systems where the two main gases helium and methane were diluted with propane, and then helium with propane, and methane with nitrous oxide, a repetitive unstable diffusion state of varying intensity occurs with increasing pressure. The effect of the diluent gas on the transfer of two main gases in three-component and four-component systems is significant, since the ballast gas can either accelerate, slow down, or leave the diffusion mixing process unchanged. The comparison between experimental and calculated data on the Stefan-Maxwell theory shows a noticeable difference between them.Key words:convection, diffusion, ballastgas, multicomponent gas mixtures.

Glucomannan contained in porang tuber (Amorphophallus oncophyllus) includes
polysaccharide fiber which can be used as an alternative food replacement for diet,
especially in treating diabetes. It contains calcium oxalate and long-term use can cause
harmful effects. Six male mice in each dose group, aged 2-2.5 months, and bodyweight 20
-40 g were used in this study. Mice were induced by alloxan monohydrate to produce
diabetic mice. The test group was mice given porang powder standardized by
glucomannan with a dose of 85, 165 and 250 mg/kg BW mice for 21 days and glucose
measurements were taken every three days. A toxicity study with a randomized postcontrol group design used six mice in the dose group. The number of deaths was
calculated with three kinds of methods (Weil method, Line method and Probit method) to
produce the LD50 of porang powder. The data were then analyzed using One Way Anova
with a significant value of 5%. Porang powder based on glucomannan with a dose of 250
mg/kg BW mice reduced glucose levels significantly after 13 days of administration
(p<0.05). The highest dose (5000 mg/kg BW mice) of porang powder standardized by
glucomannan for 48 hrs did not show death in mice and was not toxic.

Published: July 2024

The concentration of juice using an evaporator is an energy-intensive process. Forward
osmosis membrane can be used as an alternative for juice concentration at significantly
low energy. In this work, fabricated cellulose triacetate (CTA)/cellulose acetate (CA)
forward osmosis membrane was applied to concentrate passion fruit juice. The feasibility
of the fabricated CTA/CA membrane on concentrating the passion fruit juice was
determined. The FO membrane was prepared by fabricating the mixture of CTA/CA with
the inclusion of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as an additive. The CTA/CA forward osmosis
membrane was characterized and compared with the fabricated pure CA membrane (with
the inclusion of PVP). The synthesized CTA/CA membrane was shown to have a high
porosity, desired hydrophilicity, and a reduced impact of ICP, which generally affected
the forward osmosis process. The concentration of passion fruit juice was successfully
performed at an average of 2.2 LMH of water flux. The latter showed that the fabricated
CTA/CA forward osmosis membrane has the potential to concentrate the passion fruit
juice. It can be further improved by increasing the concentration of the draw solution
(NaCl) or using another type of draw solution that has higher osmotic pressure.

Published: July 2024

Cybercrime is growing rapidly, and it is increasingly important to use advanced tools to combat it and support investigations. One of the battlefronts is the forensic investigation of mobile devices to analyze their misuse and recover information. Mobile devices present numerous challenges, including a rapidly changing environment, increasing diversity, and integration with the cloud/IoT. Therefore, it is essential to have a secure and reliable toolbox that allows an investigator to thwart, discover, and solve all problems related to mobile forensics while deciphering investigations, whether criminal, civil, corporate, or other. In this work, we propose an original and innovative instantiation of a structure in a forensic toolbox for mobile devices, corresponding to a set of different applications, methods, and best practice information aimed at improving and perfecting the investigative process of a digital investigator. To ensure scientific support for the construction of the toolbox, the Design Science Research (DSR) methodology was applied, which seeks to create new and unique artifacts, drawing on the strength and knowledge of science and context. The toolbox will help the forensic investigator overcome some of the challenges related to mobile devices, namely the lack of guidance, documentation, knowledge, and the ability to keep up with the fast-paced environment that characterizes the mobile industry and market. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-08-03-011 Full Text: PDF

Material and methods: A total of 18 patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer (LAEC) were recruited into this retrospective study. All patients underwent MRI before nCRT and surgery using a 3.0 T scanner (Ingenia 3.0 CX, Philips Healthcare). A series of MR sequences including T2-weighted (T2), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and Contrast Enhance-T1 weighted (CE-T1) were performed. A clustering algorithm using a two-stage hierarchical approach groups MRI voxels into separate clusters based on their similarity. The t-test and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis were used to evaluate the predictive effect of pCR on habitat imaging results. Cross-validation of 18 folds is used to test the accuracy of predictions. Results: A total of 9 habitats were identified based on structural and physiologic features. The predictive performance of habitat imaging based on these habitat volume fractions (VFs) was evaluated. Students’ t-tests identified 2 habitats as good classifiers for pCR and non-pCR patients. ROC analysis shows that the best classifier had the highest AUC (0.82) with an average prediction accuracy of 77.78%. Conclusion: We demonstrate that MRI-based tumor habitat imaging has great potential for predicting treatment response in LAEC. Spatialized habitat imaging results can also be used to identify tumor non-responsive sub-regions for the design of focused boost treatment to potentially improve nCRT efficacy.
Ayrımların Eşiğinde Hanefî-Mâtürîdî Tefsir Geleneği: İmkânı ve Özgünlüğü

Published: July 2024

Bu makale, Ehl-i Sünnet Tefsir Geleneğinin tek tip olmadığını ve aslında bu gelenek içerisinde -kısmen farklılaşsa da -temel kabuller ve yöntem açısından Hanefî-Mâtürîdî düşüncesi merkezinde inşa edilmiş tefsirlerin de bulunabileceği şeklindeki bir hipotezi temellendirmeyi konu ve hedef edinmiştir. Bu maksatla öncelikle rivayet ve dirayet tefsiri ayrımının Hanefî-Mâtürîdî geleneğinde farklı bir duruma işaret ettiği tartışılacak ve hipotez bu bağlamda değerlendirilecektir. Tefsir geleneğinin neredeyse on dört asırlık uzun bir dönemden oluşması nedeniyle çalışma Ebû Hanife (ö. 150/767), Ebû Mansûr el-Mâtürîdî ve Ömer en-Nesefi (ö. 537/1142) ile sınırlı tutulmuştur. Bu çerçevede öncelikle Ebû Hanife’nin Kur’ân âyetlerine yönelik tasnifi ile tefsir kaynaklarının Kur’ân’ı anlamadaki rolü üzerinde durulmuştur. Ardından Mâtürîdî’nin bilgi nazariyesine temas edilmiştir. Zira Mâtürîdî, Te’vîlâtü’l-Kur’ân adlı eserini esasen bilgi nazariyesi merkezinde oluşturmuştur. Bu husus aynı zamanda onun, söz konusu eserinin girişinde zikrettiği şartların daha iyi anlaşılmasına katkı sağlayacaktır. Bunun içinde makalede Te’vîlâtü’l-Kur’ân şarihi Alâüddîn es-Semerkandî’nin (ö. 539/1144) açıklamalarından yararlanılmıştır. Tefsir Geleneğinde Hanefî-Mâtürîdî çizgisinin takip edildiğini delillendirmek adına Ömer en-Nesefî’nin et-Teysîr fi’t-Tefsîr adlı eser, tefsirin kaynakları bağlamında mukayeseli bir yöntem ile incelenmiştir. Eserlerin mukayesesi neticesinde -her bir müfessirin biricik olması nedeniyle kısmi farklılıklar olsa da- Nesefî’nin Mâtürîdî’yi takip ettiği görülmüştür. Böylece Ehl-i Sünnet Tefsir Geleneğinde baskın bir rol üstlenen anlayıştan farklı bir damarın bulunduğu neticesine varılmıştır.
How the Challenges for Somali Muslim Men in the UK Affect their Identity Resilience?
Authors: Karacan Durali
Published: July 2024

Somali men living in the UK mostly encounter difficulties related to racism, discrimination, Islamophobia, social position, and economic circumstances, which may be attributed to their relatively recent arrival in the UK. The current study explores how the intersecting identities of Somali Muslim men in the UK affect their lives, challenges and identity resilience. The objective of this research is not to generalize the difficulties encountered by Somali men in the UK. Instead, the purpose is to thoroughly investigate how the personal experiences of Somali men impact their identity resilience. The study adopts the qualitative research methodology, employing semi-structured individual in-depth interviews with Somali men in the UK, and applying Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). The research findings revealed that the intersection of race and religion, being a first generation and the lack of a concrete role model among Somali men, low social class and socioeconomic standing, and finance and interest-related matters seem to create unique challenges for Somali men in the UK. Moreover, these challenges experienced by Somali men in the UK seem to impact their emotions. It appears that the challenges faced by Somali men also negatively affect the identity principles of “self-efficacy”, “self-esteem”, “distinctiveness”, and “continuity”, which are fundamental concepts in Identity Process Theory (IPT) and the recently developed “Identity Resilience Model”. Although the religious identities of Somali men in the UK usually create challenges that negatively impact or threaten their identity resilience, their religious beliefs and religiosity also strengthen their identity resilience by providing a strong coping mechanism for their challenges.
Papalık’ta Gerçek ve İdeal
Authors: Briggs Charles Augustus
Published: July 2024

Amerikalı bir teoloji profesörü olan Charles Augustus Briggs tarafından 1907 yılında yazılan bu makalenin ana hatlarını Papalık otoritesi, Protestanlık ve modern hayat oluşturmaktadır. Briggs, çalışma boyunca Papalığın otoritesini ve diğer kiliselere karşı üstünlüğünü savunmakta ve Hıristiyan birliğinin ancak Papalık çatısı altında toplanabileceğini vurgulamaktadır. Bununla birlikte Briggs, Protestan hareketin Roma Katolik Kilisesi’ne karşı tutumunu da haklı görmekte ve hem Luther hem de takipçilerini bu noktaya iten hususun Papalık’taki yozlaşma olduğunu ifade etmektedir. Bir taraftan Papalık otoritesini savunurken diğer taraftan Roma Kilisesi’nin yozlaştığını söyleyerek Protestan hareketi desteklemesi şaşırtıcıdır. Ancak mensup olduğu Episkopal Kilise, Briggs’in birbirine zıt görünen bu iki fikri bir araya getirmesine imkân sağlamaktadır. Nitekim Briggs’in bu çalışmasının arkasında Episkopal Kilise’nin izleri görülmektedir. Makalenin ana hatlarından biri olan modern hayatın önemsenmesi fikrinin arkasında ise Briggs’in Amerikalı olması görülmektedir. Metin içerisinde modern devletlere ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nin yönetim sistemine vurgu yapan Briggs, modern devletlerde bulunan güçler ayrılığı ilkesinin faydalarından bahsederek, Papalığın da böyle bir yönetim biçimini esas almasını önermektedir. Hıristiyan birliğinin ancak ve ancak Katolik öğretiler, Protestan hareket ve modernitenin bir araya getirilmesiyle kurulabileceğini savunan Briggs, bu üç unsurun Papalık çatısı altında birleşmesi halinde ideal Papalığın ortaya çıkacağını düşünmektedir.
An experience of the Conservation of Historic Buildings’ Facades in Old Saida City
Authors: Hammoud Jad
Published: July 2024

This article delves into the nuanced experience and challenges involved in conserving historic building facades within an old Saida city neighborhood marked by neglect and limited restoration efforts due to class dynamics and discrimination by heritage curators. Nevertheless, its buildings have been subjected to lack of maintenance and repair which led to processes of degradation with time and loss of some cultural heritage [6]. Focusing on a deprived area, the paper examines the challenges and opportunities encountered in conserving architectural heritage amidst socioeconomic constraints. Damage related to the collapse of building elements necessitates an investigation into the underlying causes to prevent such occurrences. This involves identifying a set of parameters to assess the hazards of façades and public exposure. Through a blend of community involvement in close coordination between the author who drives innovative conservation techniques, UNDP and the Municipality of Saida, the project sheds light on the potential for safeguarding the historical character to the damaged historic Musalkhiyyeh street arcades and façades, Kaniset el-amercani, Musallabiyyeh old market streets amongst with a specific square called “Furn el Saha” in old Saida historic city. The project falls under the UNDP project “Improving Living Conditions in Gatherings Host Communities”. The conservation project aimed to conserve those buildings, and promoted histories of places and people’s memories connected to the selected heritage sites. The project rehabilitated internally and externally for the three selected areas. It addressed both the physical deterioration and build the knowledge about the importance of the sites. By documenting this journey, valuable lessons emerge for policymakers, urban planners, and conservationists seeking to address heritage preservation in marginalized communities. Historic structures design and construction tell us much about the cultures and the history of a community that created them and about the traditions and events from which our society grew.
The nutritional aspects and food applications of Artocarpus altilis starch: A review
Authors: Srashti Sharma  , Akansha Sharma  , Ruchi Verma
Published: July 2024

Artocarpus altilis is commonly referred to as breadfruit as it is similar to freshly baked bread. It is native to Malaysia, Southern Pacific, and the Caribbean and a mature breadfruit tree can yield between 400 and 2400 kg of breadfruit annually.​The amount of different minerals found in breadfruit varies greatly depending on the cultivar and growth area. These minerals include copper, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, cobalt, iron, and manganese. It is abundant in calcium, vital minerals, and carbohydrates. It offers infection protection and is beneficial to heart health. It contains fatty acids that are omega 3 and 6. It is increasingly used as a food additive, regulating stability, texture, and sweetness. It is gluten-free, used in bakery products, and has anti-inflammatory, anti-malarial, and atherosclerotic properties. It is also used in value-added products like Murukku, noodles, and alcohol and is also used as bioplastics and coating materials. Therefore, drying and milling breadfruit into starch is one possible solution. In modern studies, some researcher uses many different methods to preserve or alter the properties of starch and flour via modification methods such as gamma-irradiation. This method is also called the cold-sterilization method and is non-toxic by nature that’s why most of the researchers prefer that method to increase the shelf-life of the flour/starch.

This study aims to assess the capability of some soft computing techniques including ANN, M5P and RF to accurately predict the strength of selected lateritic soils in southwestern Nigeria from index properties including specific gravity, linear shrinkage, liquid limit, plasticity index, fine sand content, and fines content. To achieve this goal, the experimental dataset obtained from the laboratory analysis of three hundred soil samples taken from thirty different lateritic deposits within southwestern Nigeria was divided into model and gaging dataset. The model dataset contains two hundred and forty data points, which were divided into 70% for training and 15% each for testing and validation of the proposed models. The gaging dataset contains sixty data points, which were used to validate the proposed models against prominent existing models in the literature. The models performances were evaluated using various statistical estimators. Based on the statistical estimators, the proposed models outperformed the existing models in the literature and provided satisfactory performances, thus, they are validated. The obtained R2 values using the ANN model are 0.9967, 0.9963, 0.9989, and 0.9852 for training, testing, validation, and gaging dataset, respectively; the R2 values obtained for M5P model are 0.6676, 0.5501, 0.636 and 0.6727; and the R2 values for RF model are 0.8346, 0.6380, 0.7564, and 0.7901. This implies that ANN provided the most reliable model for the prediction of the soil strength. Thus, ANN is strongly recommended for prediction of lateritic soil strength.
