Analisis Besar Iuran Normal Metode Frozen Initial Liability dan Metode Entry Age Normal Menggunakan Tingkat Suku Bunga Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR)
Authors: Mahrani Dwi
Published: November 2023

One form of social security program is a pension funding program. A pension plan is a program designed to provide benefits to employees when they retire. Based on the type of membership, the pension program is divided into 2 types, namely individuals and groups. There are differences in the methods used for the two types of participation, namely the Normal Entry Age (EAN) method for individual pension programs and the Frozen Initial Liability (FIL) method for group pension programs. Each period, both individual and group pension program participants are required to pay normal contributions. Things that influence the amount of normal contributions for each worker are the age at which they enter work, the participant's initial salary, and the participant's chance of survival/death. In addition, the calculation of normal contributions also depends on the interest rate used. In this study, the interest rate used is the interest rate of the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) model. The normal contribution amount for EAN is constant for each period, while the normal contribution amount for FIL changes when there are participants who retire in the pension program group. The normal FIL contribution tends to be on average compared to the EAN normal contribution for each participant.

Control approach for photovoltaic inverters enhancing the primary grid using the virtual synchronous generator concept
Authors: Ghazzawi Noor Aldeen , Omar Moien , Mahmoud Marwan
Published: November 2023

This paper presents a control scheme for virtual synchronous generators (VSGs) in PV inverters, designed to enhance grid frequency and voltage. Through the skillful management of active and reactive power, this control scheme enables PV inverters to interact seamlessly with the main grid in response to grid events, including voltage and frequency fluctuations. The VSG controller is implemented using Matlab Simulink, and its effectiveness is rigorously assessed under various scenarios in a case study involves a 50 kVA rated PV inverter, a 50 kW rated PV system, and a 220 V grid phase voltage. In conditions of low power generation from the PV system (solar radiation of 200 W/m²) and high load power (120 kW and 37.5 kVAr), the load voltage drops to 202.4 V. The VSG controller successfully raises the grid voltage by 17.6 V, stabilizing it at 220 V. Conversely, in scenarios of high PV power generation (solar radiation of 1000 W/m²) and low load power (20 kW and 7.5 kVAr), the grid voltage surges by 10 V, reaching 230 V. The proposed control strategy adeptly fine-tunes the voltage, ultimately stabilizing at 220 V. Additionally, when the frequency deviates within ±0.4 Hz from the nominal frequency of 50 Hz, the proposed control effectively restores the frequency to its nominal value.

Authors: Liao Yingli
Published: November 2023

Based on the social exchange theory and the boundaryless career perspective, this study used a questionnaire method to examine the mechanism by which employees' preferences for organizational mobility influence their obligatory citizenship behavior. The results showed that: (1) employees’ organizational mobility preference positively predicted their compulsory citizenship behavior; (2) employees’ preference for organizational mobility had negative and positive effects on employees’ relational and transactional psychological contracts, respectively; (3) both relational and transactional psychological contracts partially mediated the influence of employees’ preferences for organizational mobility on their compulsory citizenship behavior, with the mediation effect of transactional psychological contract being stronger; (4) organizational development support positively moderated the mediation effect of transactional psychological contract, but the moderating effect of organizational development support on the relationship between employees’ preferences for organizational mobility and relational psychological contract was not significant.

Published: November 2023

This study mainly aimed to identify the teachers’ demographic factors, to determine the level of teachers’ perception of the school climate, and to compare their perception according to their demographic factors including teachers’ gender, educational level, years of service, position. A total of 120 teachers from a private primary school in Zhengzhou were surveyed through questionnaire based on Tagurri’s (1968) school organizational climate theory.

The study found that the level of teachers’ perception of the school climate was “relatively high”. Though there was no significant difference in teachers’ perception towards school climate according to their gender at the selected school, significant differences in teachers’ perception towards school climate according to their educational levels, years of service and positions existed. Teachers with high educational levels had more positive perceptions towards the school climates at the selected school in Zhengzhou, China. Teachers with more than 15 years of service had the most positive perceptions towards the school climates at the selected school. Teachers with high administrative positions had more positive perceptions towards the school climates at the selected school in Zhengzhou, China.

PACIENTŲ ŽINIOS APIE ŠIRDIES IR KRAUJAGYSLIŲ LIGŲ PREVENCIJOS IR ANKSTYVOSIOS DIAGNOSTIKOS PROGRAMĄ IR JŲ TAIKYMAS
Authors: Kirtiklis Žilvinas , Balčiūnienė Regina
Published: November 2023

Pasaulio sveikatos organizacijos ataskaitoje nurodyta, kad per metus dėl vainikinių kraujagyslių patologijos sukeltų širdies ligų miršta 17,9 milijono žmonių, o tai sudaro 31 proc. visų pasaulio mirčių [10]. Sergančiųjų širdies ir kraujagyslių ligomis daugėja. Norint užkirsti kelią šių ligų vystymuisi, reikia reguliariai teikti paci­entams žinias ir laiku informuoti apie jiems priklausan­čius ar rekomenduojamus tyrimus. Koreguojant rizikos veiksnius, galima išvengti daugiau nei trijų ketvirtada­lių mirčių nuo širdies ir kraujagyslių ligų [10]. Tyrimo tikslas ‒ atskleisti pacientų žinias apie širdies ir krau­jagyslių ligų prevencijos ir ankstyvosios diagnostikos programą ir jos taikymą. Tyrimo metodika ‒ kiekybinis tyrimas. Tyrimo priemonė ‒ anoniminė apklausa raštu. Tyrimo imtis ‒ tikslinė. Tyrime dalyvavo 173 pacientai (N =173; iš jų n=61 vyras, n=112 moterų). Kiekvienas respondentas buvo apklaustas individualiai, todėl grįž­tamasis ryšys gautas 100 proc. tikslumu.

Išanalizuoti tyrimo duomenys atskleidė, kad daugiau nei trečdalis respondentų savo žinias apie širdies ir krau­jagyslių ligų prevencijos ir ankstyvosios diagnostikos programą vertina patenkinamai. Aiškinantis, iš kur res­pondentai sužinojo apie prevencinę programą, nustatyta, kad daugelio apklaustųjų pagrindinis informacijos šaltinis ‒ šeimos gydytojas. Analizuojant respondentų kiekybi­nio tyrimo duomenis apie specializuotus tyrimus, atlie­kamus vykdant širdies ir kraujagyslių ligų prevencijos ir ankstyvosios diagnostikos programą ir lyginant juos su išanalizuotais mokslinėje literatūroje, galima teigti, kad respondentams trūksta žinių apie atliekamus tyri­mus. Dauguma apklaustųjų nežino tyrimų, priklausan­čių širdies ir kraujagyslių ligų prevencijos ir ankstyvo­sios diagnostikos programai ir kas tų tyrimų metu bus atliekama. Lyginant su išanalizuota moksline literatūra, penki dešimtadaliai apklaustųjų žino apie juodųjų ser­bentų bei razinų gerąjį poveikį organizmui. Pagal gautus statistikos rezultatus, vyrų ir moterų žinios apie širdies ir kraujagyslių ligų prevencijos ir ankstyvosios diagnostikos programos profilaktinių priemonių naudojimą yra apy­lygės. Pagal dalyvavusių tyrime respondentų lytį galima daryti prielaidą, kad moterys dažniau lankosi sveikatos priežiūros įstaigose, nes tyrime dalyvavo dukart daugiau moterų negu vyrų.

Published: November 2023

Informacinių technologijų naudojimas tapo neatsie­jama žmonių gyvenimo dalimi. Nors internetas atneša daug naudos visuomenei, tačiau stebima ir negatyvioji patirtis – interneto platybės leidžia sklisti nereguliuoja­mai, galimai klaidinančiai informacijai, turinčiai įtakos žmonių sveikatos sprendimams. Internetine rasta su sveikata susijusi informacija gali padidinti visuome­nės informuotumą apie sveikatos priežiūrą, tačiau dėl prastos informacijos kokybės ir menko sveikatos raštin­gumo gali sumažėti pasitikėjimas gydytojais. Straips­nyje pristatomo tyrimo tikslas – atskleisti internete rastos informacijos įtaką sprendimams dėl sveikatos priežiūros. Tyrimui atlikti buvo pasirinkta kiekybinio tyrimo strategija, duomenų rinkimui panaudota anoni­minė anketinė apklausa internetu. Duomenys apdoroti naudojantis statistinių duomenų apdorojimo programa „Microsoft Office Excel 2019“. Tyrimo rezultatai at­skleidė, kad tyrimo dalyviai su sveikata susijusios in­formacijos dažniausiai ieškojo internete ir su sveikata susijusiomis naujienų svetainėmis. Norėdami patikrinti rastą informaciją, tiriamieji labiau buvo linkę naudotis patikimais šaltiniais, tokiais kaip Lietuvos Respublikos sveikatos apsaugos ministerijos (LR SAM) svetainė ir mokslinės duomenų bazės. Tyrimas parodė, kad daugiau nei ketvirtadaliui respondentų internete rasta informa­cija dažnai turi įtakos jų sveikatos priežiūros spren­dimams, 1 iš 20 respondentų internete rasta informa­cija visados prisideda prie jo sprendimų dėl sveikatos priežiūros. Internete respondentai dažniausiai ieško informacijos tokioms būklėms ar jų simptomams mal­šinti, kaip skausmas, kvėpavimo takų infekcijos, virš­kinamojo trakto sutrikimai ir odos ligos. Daugiau nei penktadalis respondentų, remdamiesi internete rastais patarimais, neatsiklausdami gydytojo pradėjo vartoti vaistus, kurių dauguma buvo nereceptiniai vaistai nuo skausmo, peršalimo, viduriavimo, alergijos ir odos ligų. Užfiksuota ir pora atvejų, kai respondentai pradėjo var­toti receptinius vaistus, tokius kaip antidepresantai ir antibiotikai. Beveik dešimtadalis respondentų nutraukė vaistų vartojimą dėl internete pateiktos informacijos.

Background: Community-acquired urinary tract infection (CA-UTI) endures the communal diseases diagnosed in
community health practices. Urinary tract infections are commonly encountered by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella
pneumoniae. Antibiotic therapy is an important step in UTI treatment but, the increase in the spread of resistance
become a major concern. ESBL and MBL are the most common among antibiotic resistance. Aims and objectives: The
major objective of the study is to detect the prevalence organisms causing CA-UTI and to find out the prevalence of ESBL
and MBL isolates among drug-resistant organisms. The study was conducted at the Materials and methods:
Microbiology Department of Dr. Moopens Medical College, Wayanad, Kerala, over a period of 3 months. All urine
samples obtained from outpatients were processed for identification by culture, morphological and biochemical tests.

Художня рецепція образів України та українців у повісті М. Гоголя Тарас Бульба (перша редакція 1835 р.)
Authors: Nikolenko Olga
Published: November 2023

Artistic Reception of Images of Ukraine and Ukrainians in Mykola Gogol’s Taras Bulba (First Edition, 1835). This paper discusses Mykola Gogol’s story Taras Bulba (1835) and its exploration of Ukrainian history and culture. Gogol’s work reflects his deep study of Ukrainian and world history, as well as his collection of Ukrainian folklore. The story presents a mythopoetic image of the Ukrainian Cossack and addresses the historical context of the Zaporizhian Sich’s liquidation. Gogol aims to poetically describe the grand history of the Zaporizhian Sich and recreate the Ukrainian Cossack imagery by blending European heroic epic traditions with Ukrainian folklore. Gogol’s collections, including Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka and Mirgorod, form a cohesive representation of his development and exploration of Ukraine’s image. The paper further highlights Gogol’s reflections on Ukrainian history and the Cossacks in his articles and emphasizes the significance of the term ‘Ukraine’ in Taras Bulba. The story portrays Ukraine as a distinct entity within European history. Gogol’s mythopoetic approach, inspired by Ukrainian songs and dumy, shapes the depiction of Ukrainian history and the passionate aspirations of the Ukrainian Cossacks. The story draws on ancient and medieval heroic epic traditions and intertwines them with domestic narratives of Taras Bulba’s family. Gogol creates images of Ukrainian Cossacks as noble knights defending their faith and ideals.

Корэхито Курахара и “Пролетарский реализм”: пролетарская литература в Японии в 1920-х гг.
Authors: Komiya Michiko
Published: November 2023

Korehito Kurahara and “Proletarian Realism”: Proletarian Literature in Japan in 1920s. This paper examines the proletarian literature movement that emerged in Japan in the 1920s, focusing on Korehito Kurahara, a leading proponent. Kurahara studied Russian literature and his theory, “proletarian realism,” was based on concepts promoted by the Russian Association of Proletarian Writers (RAPP). The paper analyzes two of Kurahara’s works from which proletarian realism originated. Both works are based on arguments between leaders of the proletarian writers’ organization and A. Volonsky. After Kurahara, Japan attempted to interpret proletarian literature from the perspective of literary history, which Kurahara incorporated into Japanese literature based on RAPP discussions. This suggests that Japanese proletarian literary theory developed under the influence of the Soviet Union.

Ukrainian motifs in A. S. Makarenko’s Pedagogical Poem. Makarenko’s Pedagogical Poem in the Stalin era was perceived as a eulogy to the collective, while in late Soviet times the dominance of the collective and the tendency to violent solutions already irritated the Russian reader. The German historian Goetz Hillig saw Makarenko as a world pedagogical genius, created his scientific biography, and published a scholarly edition of his writings in German. Elena Tolstaya looks at The Poem, set in post-revolutionary Ukraine, in the aspect of Russian-Ukrainian bilingualism, and looks for possible responses to the actualities of the late 20s – early 30s.
Как закалялась сталь в Восточной Азии
Authors: Koshino Go
Published: November 2023

How the Steel Was Tempered in East Asia. Nikolai Ostrovsky’s novel How Steel Was Tempered (1932-34) tells the story of a young Ukrainian man named Pavel Korchagin who sacrifices his life and body to forge a steel-like spirit amid revolution, civil war, and postwar socialist construction. Although his physical injuries, which left him paralyzed and even blind, looks somehow grotesque, but his heroic self-sacrifice also had the power to inspire young readers. Regarded as an exemplary work of Soviet socialist realism, it was translated into many languages and read avidly at one time by left-wing readers in the West as well as in the Communist countries in the East. It was particularly influential in China, where it is so popular that even today it is invariably named as one of the favorite books of university students. This is in contrast to post-Soviet Russia today, in which the novel has lost the privileged position it once enjoyed and is no longer widely read. In China under the socialist regime, Ostrovsky’s novel was published in large numbers as suitable reading for young people and incorporated into school education. However, their active introduction in the public sphere alone does not explain their popularity. Chinese readers seem to have become deeply emotionally involved in the protagonist’s unsuccessful love affair with Tonya, a young girl whose bourgeois gestures and characterization must have been considered negative. As a result, the Soviet ideological novel has brought an unexpected meaning of European-style romantic love for Chinese readers. This presentation will trace the reception of Ostrovsky’s novel and the changes in the heroine Tonya’s image by comparing five adaptations: two Soviet films in 1942 and 1957, a Chinese lianhuanhua (serial picture book) in 1972, a Japanese manga in 1975, and a Chinese TV drama in 1999.
Аспекты рецепции русской литературы в Италии периода фашизма
Authors: Aloe Stefano
Published: November 2023

Aspects of the reception of Russian culture and literature in Italy during the fascist period. Many studies are dedicated to the reception of Russian literature in Italy with a really extensive bibliography on specific aspects of the question. However, there is still no comprehensive monograph on the subject as a whole. Russian literature became popular in Italy at the end of the ‘80s of the 19th century after being almost completely ignored. A deepened comprehention and awareness of Russian literature was gained in the first decades of the 20th century, when exoticism was gradually supplanted by familiarity. The 20’s are the time when Russian literature and culture can be considered a modern classic for the average Italian. Fascism’s attitude to the Soviet experiment was by no means unequivocal, and Russian literature had a specific influence on intellectual life in Italy and served as a factor in its defense of intellectual freedom during the 20 years of fascist power. Almost all major Soviet writers are translated and published in Italy in the 20’s. The situation will radically change in the 30’s, when the censorship will take over and the confrontation will become unambiguous.

FABRICATION OF TERNARY SILICA-CALCIUM-MAGNESIUM AEROGELS: EFFECT OF FEEDING RATE AND MOLAR RATIO ON PROPERTIES
Authors: KARAKUZU İKİZLER Burcu , TERZİOĞLU Pınar , TEMEL SOYLU Tülay Merve , YÜCEL Sevil
Published: November 2023

The silica-calcium-magnesium ternary aerogels were prepared by a solvent exchange method and a subsequent ambient pressure drying process. The effect of process parameters such as feeding rate (9-70 mL.min-1) and molar ratio (Si/(Ca:Mg) = 1:1 - 3:1) on the material characteristics including density, elemental content, surface area, pore size, pore volume, and morphology of powders were investigated. Aerogels were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), Barrett–Joiner–Halenda (BJH) and tapping density analysis. It was found that the molar ratio of Si/(Ca:Mg) could remarkably affect the surface area and density of aerogels, while the feeding rate had slight effect. The resultant aerogels exhibited high specific surface areas. The results showed that the aerogel has a Si/(Ca:3Mg) molar composition obtained with 9 mL.min-1 had the highest surface area (524 m2.g−1). The increase of Ca to Mg molar ratio caused a decrease in the surface area and density of samples. The resultant aerogels are promising candidates as adsorbents to remove various contaminants.
A TWO STAGE MODEL FOR DAY-AHEAD ELECTRICITY PRICE FORECASTING: INTEGRATING EMPIRICAL MODE DECOMPOSITION AND CATBOOST ALGORITHM
Authors: YILDIZ Ceyhun
Published: November 2023

Electricity price forecasting is crucial for the secure and cost-effective operation of electrical power systems. However, the uncertain and volatile nature of electricity prices makes the electricity price forecasting process more challenging. In this study, a two-stage forecasting model was proposed in order to accurately predict day-ahead electricity prices. Historical natural gas prices, electricity load forecasts, and historical electricity price values were used as the forecasting model inputs. The historical electricity and natural gas price data were decomposed in the first stage to extract more deep features. The empirical mode decomposition (EMD) algorithm was employed for the efficient decomposition process. In the second stage, the categorical boosting (CatBoost) algorithm was proposed to forecast day-ahead electricity prices accurately. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed forecasting model, a case study was conducted using the dataset from the Turkish electricity market. The proposed model results were compared with benchmark machine learning algorithms. The results of this study indicated that the proposed model outperformed the benchmark models with the lowest root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and correlation coefficient (R) values of 8.3282%, 5.2210%, 6.9675%, and 86.2256%, respectively.

In this study, it was experimentally investigated that the groundwater of a well is brought to the surface using solar energy, which is one of the renewable energy sources, and the cooling of a place with this water with low energy density. The study evaluated cooling performance on two different days (Exp. 1 and Exp. 2) and at two different cooling water flow rates. The efficiency of the PV system was found to be 8.33±0.44% in Exp. 1 and 8.3±0.44% in Exp. 2. The cooling loads of the cooled buildings differ in Exp. 1 and Exp. 2 due to ambient conditions. The cooling load in Exp. 1 was determined to be 572±22.8 W and in Exp. 2 about 828±33.1 W. The heat loads extracted from the building by the groundwater used as a cooling fluid are 410±16.4 W and 786±31.4 W for Exp. 1 and Exp. 2. The cooling performance evaluation criteria (CPEP) value was found to be 0.72 for Exp. 1 and 0.95 for Exp. 2. Although there was a significant difference between the cooling loads for Exp. 1 and Exp. 2, the cooling load coverage increased with the increase in cooling water flow rate according to the CPEP values. Although in both experiments the cooling load was not fully met and the temperature inside the structure rose slightly during the experiment, it was kept cool.

Authors: Chuliuk V. I.
Published: November 2023

Diseases of reptiles and the principles of their treatment are significantly different from the therapy of mammals and birds, which is primarily related to the anatomical and physiological features of representatives of this class of poikilothermic animals. In the complex treatment of infectious diseases of reptiles, a fairly effective antibiotic is ceftifur, which belongs to the third-generation cephalosporins, which are widely used in veterinary medicine.

To study the effect of cephalosporins on the body of reptiles, a histological and ultra-structural examination of the kidneys and liver of Red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta elegans) was performed, which were administered intramuscularly ceftifur (at a dose of 2.2 mg/kg) every 24 hours.

Experimental animals were removed from the experiment on the 7th day. Histological sections were made using a sledge microtome and cryostat microtome, stained with hematoxylin and eosin, Sudan III. Electron microscopic research was carried out using an electron microscope PEM-100-01.

As a result of the histological examination and transmission electron microscopy of the kidneys, dyscirculatory changes were revealed, characterized by the expansion and overflow of blood mainly in venous vessels, desquamation of endothelial cells in the vessel lumen, as well as dystrophic changes in the epithelium of the renal tubules. Structural changes in the epithelium of renal tubules were accompanied by damage to mitochondria, expansion of the tubules of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and the accumulation of cytosomes, lysosomes, and autophagolysosomes in the cytoplasm. In the liver, a decrease in the density of melanomacrophage complexes was recorded, as well as a decrease in the number and change in the shape of fatty inclusions in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes, decrease in the number of glycogen granules. In necrotized hepatocytes, the nucleus underwent pyknotic changes, the cytoplasmic matrix brightened, and cytoplasmic organelles underwent destruction.

Published: November 2023

Fredrick Hopkins discovered Vitamin A, a fat-soluble 20 carbon unit molecule acquired through natural sources like carrots and synthetic options like gelatin capsules or supplements. It has a vital role in developing the human eye, early stages of lung formation, and immune system. Deficiency of vitamin A causes Xerophthalmia, can lead to night blindness, and severe conditions advance to permanent blindness. On the other side, toxicity results in skin irritation and teratogenicity in newborn babies. The action of Retinoic acid as a neurotransmitter and the effect of different doses of Vitamin A on morbidity are essential topics that make scientists curious. This paper describes Vitamin A history, deficiency accompanied by toxicity, role, and importance for the eye and the treatment of SARS-CoV-2.

Chronic metabolic illnesses, like diabetes mellitus, have become diseases that harm human health and are now one of the most critical public health problems in almost half a century, as a result of societal development and lifestyle changes. For decades, conventional insulin therapy has been playing a significant role while treating millions of patients around the globe. Unfortunately, despite breakthroughs in DNA recombinant technology and pharmacotherapy, these therapeutic goals are rarely met, and results have not improved significantly. The low effectiveness rate of insulin treatment is becoming recognized as a result of intra-individual and inter-individual differences in insulin needs. Thus, our review focuses on finding superior insulin derivatives to treat diabetes more effectively and efficiently. Insulin analogs hold the potential to overcome the limitations of conventional insulin. We have taken a deep dive into rapid acting and long-acting analogs by discussing their pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, dosage and therapeutic efficacy. But their safety profile has been questioned several times and therefore we have thrown some light on the current innovation trends that are being scrutinized.

Understanding how nanoparticle change influences organic structures is crucial for growing greater powerful nanomedicines. This evaluation summarizes the important thing achievements of nanomedicines, consisting of excessive molecular weight nanoparticles to enhance drug shipping and release, and techniques to conquer drug resistance.
Designing Polymer-based Mucosa Membranes: Biomimicking
Authors: Jagtiani Ekta
Published: November 2023

Mucoadhesion develops when a polymer adheres to the mucosal membrane through chemical or physical interactions. Adhesive materials are often employed in the manufacture of dosage forms for transmucosal drug administration via oral, nasal, esophageal, buccal and vaginal routes. This review covers some of the most prevalent synthetic methods for improving the mucoadhesive characteristics of polymeric materials. The buccal film and the oral dose form are two of these administration methods. Medication with a high blood perfusion rate can easily pass through the mucosal barrier of the mouth (oral mucosa). Drugs with low bioavailability and short half-life are simpler to administer. Buccal films, as opposed to traditional drug delivery systems, enable for the regulated and prolonged release of topical pharmaceuticals and are favoured over alternative approaches for delivering medications that are at risk of being lost because to the first pass effect, reduced permeability, enzyme degradation along with the gastrointestinal system's changing environment. Superior mucoadhesive qualities are found in hydrophilic polymers that have charged groups and/or non-ionic functional groups that can establish hydrogen bonds with mucosal surfaces. There are multiple ways for assessing the mucoadhesive characteristics of different dosage formulations. This review provides an overview of the properties of mucoadhesive and mucus gel, as well as the most commonly used procedures.
