Mechanistic deconvolution of autoreduction in tetrazolium-based cell viability assays
Authors: Tran Kara , Shah Aashi , Saha Rittika , Song Claire , Liang Emily , Njoo Edward
Published: July 2024

Optical reporters for biochemical activities within cells are a powerful way to quantify the physiological responses of cellular systems to experimental conditions. For example, tetrazolium dyes, such as 5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT), can be used to quantify the number of living cells present in a sample. This is useful for the determination of the toxic or antiproliferative activity of certain conditions that a cell might be exposed to, such as the administration of anticancer compounds. Inside of an active, living cell, tetrazolium salts, such as MTT, are reduced to brightly-colored formazan dye counterparts, which can be measured spectrophotometrically as a proxy for cellular viability. However, it has been reported that small molecules may interfere with the results of an MTT assay, at times impacting the accuracy or reproducibility of the results of the experiment. In this study, to examine if reducing agents were a source of inaccuracy in the MTT assay, we tested common reducing agents in cellular media, which are commonly used in biological assays, for unforeseen autoreduction and determined that ascorbic acid, cysteine, and glutathione (GSH) were reactive with MTT under basic conditions. We also found pH accelerated autoreduction, with a pH of 10 correlating with the most autoreduction. We advise to use media specially depleted of ascorbic acid, cysteine, and GSH, or a higher cellular density for such assays, in order to prevent interference through autoreduction.

Authors: Mongyi Norbert
Published: July 2024

The paper explores the development of the intercultural communicative competence (ICC) of high-school learners of English as a foreign language through the implementation of thinking routines within an inquiry-based language teaching framework. Emphasizing the importance of ICC, the paper begins by situating this competence within the Hungarian National Core Curriculum. The inquiry-based language teaching approach is then examined, highlighting its alignment with the needs of teaching English as a foreign language in an information-based society and its efficacy in promoting active English language learning. The paper introduces thinking routines as strategic tools that teachers can employ to scaffold learners’ thinking and enhance their metacognitive awareness. Subsequently, three thinking routines are presented as implemented during English lessons in a Hungarian high school. The paper argues that such an approach not only improves linguistic proficiency but also equips learners with the intercultural communicative competence necessary for meaningful engagement in our globalized, information-based society.

Authors: Sarker M. R. I.
Published: July 2024

The demand for mechanization as an important input to achieve higher agricultural production has lately been recognized by our policy makers and planners. For a long period of time agricultural mechanization, especially the use of machines like power tillers, irrigation pumps, threshers and many other equipment are expanding without any specific policy guidelines. Nonetheless mechanization has brought a substantial production increase through timely cultivation, irrigation, harvesting and threshing. The impacts of mechanization are now visible in the technical skills development within local workshops, better livelihoods for farm workers and employment in the rural non-farm sectors. Besides local manufacturing capacity of small machines, equipments and spare parts by light engineering industries are growing but at a slower space due to many problems faced by them. These enterprises are not capable enough to compete with foreign manufacturers in terms of quality and performances. The need for technical assistance, innovation, government support and proper policies are essential to make the local entrepreneurs viable and capable to meet the local demands of machines and equipments. This paper reviews the present status of mechanization, highlights the proposed policies and implementation strategies to be undertaken by the government to strengthen agricultural mechanization in order to make progress in the agricultural sector.

Published: July 2024

Presently, arsenic poisoning is an important issue in Bangladesh, where at least thirty percent of the water wells have an arsenic level above the drinking water standard prescribed by Bangladesh National standard (GOB, 1997). In Bangladesh, people drink ground water with higher arsenic level which eventually cause death or serious health risk. Among the locally available biomass, living water hyacinth, charcoal (obtained from mango tree), dried root of water hyacinth, and used tea leaf were used to remove arsenic from drinking water. All these four methods demonstrated considerable effectiveness in removing arsenic. Significant amount of arsenic was removed by Water hyacinth. From water with an initial arsenic concentration of 63.56 ppb, water hyacinth it reduced to a minimum level of 41.54 ppb and dried water hyacinth root reduced the level to 46.86 ppb. The other two biomasses: used tea leaf to 57.46 ppb and charcoal sedimentation reduced the level to 48.74 ppb, respectively.

Background: Emotional state indicates the state of a person’s emotions, especially with regard to pleasure or dejection. Emotional states indirectly affect behaviour. Adolescents practicing yoga have been reported to significantly differ from the non-yoga group on emotional regulation. Method: The study was carried out among 100 yoga practitioners by Patanjali Yoga Research Centre, Kozhikode, Kerala, India using a questionnaire containing the measure of emotional state and the characteristics of the respondents such as sex, age, marital status, period of yoga practice (months), and the level of psychological problems, if any, experienced during the previous two months. Emotional state of the yoga practitioners was quantified as the experience of positive and negative emotional state items, with five-point responses ranging from “felt very often” to “felt very rarely” scored from 5 to 1 (reverse scored for negative items) as suggested by Yaden & Haybron (2022). The results were analysed as proportion, scores and through ANOVA. Results: The results have shown that yoga practice has helped the respondents to improve their positive emotions and reduce the experience of negative emotions, helping them to achieve a better emotional state. Respondents who had less of psychological problems during the past two months and with higher period of yoga practice achieved better positive and negative emotional state. In addition to more psychological problems faced, lesser period of yoga practice by those reporting more psychological problems could have also contributed to comparatively low emotional state scores for respondents who had more psychological problems, as observed under the study. Conclusion: Yoga has helped in improving positive emotions and reducing negative emotions for the practitioners, which would contribute to better mental health. It will be useful if, in addition to the academic/research institutions, yoga centres in India also undertake studies on the effects of yoga using the expertise of competent researchers, and transfer the results to people so that they may feel more motivated to start practicing yoga for achieving better wellbeing in their lives. This is especially important in a country like India, where the level of adoption of yoga is not much.

This research examines the moderating role of transformational, transactional, and participative leadership in the relationship between succession planning strategies and the sustenance of manufacturing SMEs in Ghana. Surveying 500 leaders from 200 registered manufacturing SMEs, the study employed a quantitative approach and structural equation modeling to test the proposed hypotheses. Findings reveal that succession planning strategies, along with transformational, participative, and transactional leadership, significantly predict SME sustenance. These leadership styles moderate the impact of succession planning strategies on SME sustenance. The originality of this study is based on examining the relationship between succession planning strategies and leadership styles within the Ghanaian manufacturing context, area previously underexplored. By integrating leadership styles as moderating variables, the study offers a new conceptual framework that enhances understanding of how leadership optimize succession planning strategies and improve SME sustenance, uniquely contributing to literature by empirically demonstrating the moderating effects of leadership on succession planning strategies and SME sustenance.
Social space and management field: an interaction analysis based on a socioresource approach
Authors: Igumnov O.A.
Published: July 2024

В статье представлена авторская трактовка социального пространства в части его подпространства, которое автор предлагает рассматривать как поле управления. Взаимодействие социального пространства и поля управления рассматривается как взаимоотношение части и целого, в котором оба компонента понимаются как гомологичные. Автором предложены результаты анализа взаимодействия пространства и поля на основе социоресурсного подхода, в котором социальные ресурсы и их основная форма – социальный капитал – представлены как ресурсы нематериальной природы, способные изменить качество социальных отношений, а вместе с ним – и качество самого управления, трансформируя его в социально ориентированное управление с субъект-субъектной основой. Решение данной задачи автор рассматривает как вызов для менеджеров российских организаций, признавая возможность его реализации с учётом социокультурных особенностей российской деловой культуры. Концепты «социальное пространство» и «поле управления» автор рассматривает как находящиеся в отношениях лиминальности, то есть перехода в смежные области наук для взаимного «приращения» научного знания.

Aim: The aim of this study is to design a model for building media trust in sports. Methodology: This research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. In the qualitative section, systematic library studies and exploratory interviews were used to extract components and frame them. In the quantitative section, the study is descriptive-correlational and applied in nature, conducted via surveys. The statistical population includes prominent professors in sports management who specialize in sports and Islam, as well as experts in Islamic civilization. These individuals were selected purposefully (36 interviews with 36 participants continued until theoretical saturation was achieved). In the qualitative phase, two tools were used: systematic library studies and exploratory interviews. In the quantitative phase, a researcher-developed questionnaire, derived from the qualitative phase, was used. The content or face validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by 10 sports management professors. The reliability or internal consistency was calculated using Cronbach's alpha in SPSS24 software (α = 0.89) and confirmed. In the qualitative section, three stages of coding were used to categorize the identified components. In the quantitative section, confirmatory factor analysis was used to confirm the research construct. Finally, structural modeling and multiple variable relationships were assessed using SmartPLS software. Findings: The qualitative section identified 43 conceptual codes, 12 main categories, and 9 core codes. The core codes include media, human resources, audience, media economy, media supervision and evaluation, international communications and learning, news quality and reporting, accuracy, and speed. In the quantitative section, results showed that human resources (0.511), audience (0.431), accuracy (0.532), news quality and reporting (0.515), media speed (0.502), media economy (0.536), international communication and learning (0.485), supervision and evaluation (0.465), and media ownership (0.523) significantly contribute to media trust-building. Path analysis revealed that media trust-building is significantly influenced by audience, media economy, supervision and evaluation, international communications and learning, news quality and reporting, accuracy, and speed. Conclusion: Based on this model, it is possible to assess the factors affecting media trust-building and, by prioritizing and addressing each factor, take appropriate actions to gain audience trust.

Objective: The aim of this study was to present a model of temptation and likelihood of substance use in dependent individuals with a history of relapse based on attention bias and emotional processing styles, with the mediating role of social support. Methods and Materials: The research method was descriptive and correlational. The statistical population included addicted individuals referred to addiction treatment centers (residential camps) in the city of Rasht. A simple random sampling method was used, and based on the Morgan table, 201 individuals were selected. Data were collected using the following standardized questionnaires: Post-Addiction Temptation to Use Substance Questionnaire, Shostrom Attention Bias Questionnaire (translated by Rezvani), Baker's Emotional Processing Styles Questionnaire, and Wax's Social Support Questionnaire. For statistical data analysis, structural equation modeling and LISREL software were used. Findings: The results indicated that all the paths in the overall sample were statistically significant. In the final research model, the relationship between variables of temptation and likelihood of substance use in dependent individuals with a history of relapse, based on attention bias and emotional processing styles, with the mediating role of social support, was significant. The highest coefficient (-0.76) was related to the path of social support, while the weakest coefficient (-0.39) was related to the path of attention bias. Therefore, all direct paths were significant (p < 0.50). In the proposed research model, there were two indirect or mediating paths, and to determine the significance of mediating relationships and the indirect effect of the independent variable on the dependent variable through the mediator, the bootstrap method was used (p < 0.01). Conclusion: It can be concluded that the model has good fitness. Based on the standard coefficients, the direct and indirect paths of the proposed model were significant.

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) on improving the quality of life in adolescents engaging in non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Methods and Materials: The research method was quasi-experimental with a pre-test and post-test control group design. The statistical population of the present study included 16 to 18-year-old high school students (both boys and girls) in Sari. From this population, 100 individuals were selected through convenience sampling, and among them, 28 individuals who obtained the highest scores on the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Questionnaire (NSSI) were selected based on inclusion criteria and were randomly assigned to an experimental group and a control group (each group consisting of 14 individuals). The experimental group received group CBT over 12 sessions of 90 minutes each, while the control group received no intervention until the post-test phase. The tools used in this study included the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Questionnaire (Klonsky & Glenn, 2011) and the Quality of Life Questionnaire (Ware & Sherbourne, 1992). The data obtained in the pre-test and post-test phases were analyzed using covariance analysis with SPSS-22 software. Findings: The results showed that CBT led to an increase in the quality of life of adolescents. Conclusion: The findings provide evidence that CBT is a suitable method for increasing the quality of life in adolescents engaging in non-suicidal self-injury and can lead to the enhancement of their mental health.
