Published: January 2023

The investigation was born with unknowns such as knowing the physical and mechanical properties of the porous concrete tested in the rains of the tracks of the Abancay district. Its objectives are: To establish the compressive stability, modulus of rupture and to evaluate the absorption of porous concrete, using the standard practical norm to select proportions for normal concrete, it helps in the elaboration of porous concrete with compressive stability (f¨ c = 210 kg/cm2) with 12, 17 and 22% voids. Conclusions: The T1 procedure with 12% vacuum of Spindle 8 has greater stability, approaching the level of stability required for this type of porous concrete and for the type of tracks, it has been observed that Spindle 67 is lower in resistance in each one of the void percentages with respect to Spindle 8, then the T2 procedure is very important for the design of porous concrete, the modulus of rupture of the T1 procedures of 12% void and T2 at 17% void of Spindle 8 does not is significantly different, however T1 is different than T3 of 22% void percentage of Spindle 8 and 67. So the treatment is adequate.

Presencia de metales pesados en suelos agrícolas de la subcuenca Llallimayo, departamento de Puno
Authors: Espinoza_Rivas Germán R. , Cárdenas_Catalán José A. , Echegaray_Peña Nora G.
Published: January 2023

Contamination of aquatic environments by heavy metals is one of the major concerns in rural localities and urban cities, for this reason during the months of July and November 2020, parameters were evaluated and samples were taken upstream and downstream of the Chacapalca river, analyzing physicochemical parameters: such as hydrogen potential (pH), temperature (°C), electrical conductivity (EC); heavy metals: aluminum (Al), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), total chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn); total coliforms and thermotolerant coliforms. The objective was to evaluate water quality in the Llallimayo River sub-basin and identify the pollutant factors correlated with the water ECAs of D.S. N° 004-2017-MINAM. The inorganic parameters indicate that high values of pH (9.7) and EC (2674) exceed the ECA values; likewise, the inorganic parameters show that the elements Al, As, Cd, Cu, Mn, Hg and Pb, are not suitable for vegetable irrigation, animal drinking and aquatic environment quality. In conclusion, the discharge of mining effluent seriously contaminates and exceeds the permissible limits for Al, As, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn in water for human use and consumption.
Working with Contested Ethnographic Collections to Change “Old Museum” Perspectives: Mutare Museum, Eastern Zimbabwe, 2015-2017
Authors:   Department of Anthropology/ Wits City Institute, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa, Chipangura Njabulo ,   Curator at Mutare Museum, National Museum and Monuments of Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe
Published: January 2023

In this article, I will examine the history of collecting ethnographic objects at Mutare Museum, moving between the colonial and postcolonial periods in order to show how these time scales structured the ways in which exhibitions are presented. I argue that by removing ethnographic objects from their cultural setting and inserting them into the visual system of the museum, their dynamic web of physical and social meanings was broken. Whilst I acknowledge that Mutare Museum’s system of displaying its ethnographic collection was shaped by colonialism in a way that resulted in the marginalisation of certain communities, I will show how collections in one of the galleries—the Beit Gallery—were transformed to convey new postcolonial meanings. In part, the paper also looks at how the concept of object biography and ethnomuseology assisted in redesigning and changing old exhibitions in the Beit Gallery. This case in point will be illustrated by gleaning through the multi-layered histories of collecting at this museum. Next, I will argue that the particular, ‘old’ manner in which ethnographic objects were displayed conforms to the traditional practice of presenting exclusively for visual observation. Objects would be displayed on the floor in an almost derogatory way—presented as if they were strange and exotic and devoid of any social and historical significance. Yet, this type of scenography did not do justice to the social biography of the collection, which could not be understood in terms of a single unchanging identity, but rather by tracing the succession of meanings attached to the objects as they move through space and time. As a result, communities living around this museum used to periodically contest narratives that were appended on ethnographic collections on display in the Beit Gallery. Therefore, in this article, I will show how we reorganised this exhibition through a collaborative partnership with the source communities where the objects had originated from. The discussion in this paper is premised on the data derived from my involvement in redesigning displays in the Beit Gallery as a curator at Mutare Museum. Later on, I will also address public perceptions of the new installations and gauge whether the exhibition attained the desired effects.
The Museums of the World and I. My Museum Experience in an Eastern European Country
Authors:   National Museum of the Romanian Peasant, Romania, Nicolau Irina
Published: January 2023

In the context of the major changes that the the Museum of the Romanian Peasant is currently undergoing, we decided to publish an extraordinarily daring article written by Irina Nicolau in 1994, at a time when the “young” MRP she had co-founded together with Horia Bernea was experiencing another era of change and challenges as it made a fresh start after the fall of communism. With the bright reflections of young PhD candidate Dominique Belkis serving as her mirror, as in a dialogue between master and disciple, Irina Nicolau tells her story about the scars left by the communist decades on Eastern European countries and, more specifically, on Romanian culture. Being aware of the necessity to rethink the past in order to stage it in a valid discourse for the present and for the future as well, the ethnologist—who relies on intelligent emotions—speaks of mother-like museums in opposition to father-like ones, of the absent museums of her adolescence and the imaginary bridges she built in order to reach them, of the thirst for knowledge under a rigidly prohibitive political regime. More than twenty years old, Nicolau’s and Belkis’s reflections prove to be as valid and as topical in the present. But what would an antidote museum look like today? And, above all, could the Missionary Museum of the MRP’s early days be a visionary one?
Cracks and Light: Observing the Resilience of the History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina

Published: January 2023

Among the seven national institutions of the former socialist Yugoslav period that appear to have been assigned to the category of ‘contested’ and ‘unwanted’ heritage, the History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina stands out. Originally built as a Museum of Revolution, it bears a legacy of a specific identity and cultural narrative developed in the socialist period, which has been projected in the architecture displaying the hallmarks of early Modernism. Even though the Museum was listed as a national monument by the Commission to Preserve National Monuments in 2012, the building is in an alarmingly advanced state of disrepair, with little indication that such trend will be reversed any time soon.The paper firstly discusses the Museum in the context of current international developments and the aspects related to museum architecture. Secondly, the Museum is observed through a critical heritage lens and within phenomena of a deliberate destruction of heritage in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since 2003 the Museum has a permanent exhibition The Besieged Sarajevo, illustrating the practical modes of survival during the 1990s war, consisting of artefacts donated by citizens. Other exhibition themes, ranging from the labour movement traditions, the legacy of World War I, life in former Yugoslavia, the Dayton Peace Agreement mapping, and The Obliteration of Cultural Heritage project, posit critical questions for and about the contemporary society in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This work combines two disciplinary fields, architecture and public history, to inquire into selected contemporary activities of the Museum. Its resilience is viewed as representative, symbolic, and symptomatic of an over-reaching cultural, political, and economic condition in the country.

Delegation And Coordination With Multiple Threshold Public Goods: Experimental Evidence
Authors: Luca Corazzini , Christopher Cotton , Tommaso Reggiani
Published: January 2023

When multiple charities, social programs and community projects simultaneously vie for funding, donors risk miscoordinating their contributions leading to an inefficient distribution of funding across projects. Community chests and other intermediary organizations facilitate coordination among donors and reduce such risks. We explore such considerations by extending the threshold public goods framework to allow donors to contribute to an intermediary rather than directly to the public goods. We experimentally study the effects of the intermediary on contributions and successful public good funding. Results show that delegation increases overall contributions and public good success, but only when the intermediary is formally committed to direct funding received from donors to socially beneficial goods. Without such a restriction, the presence of an intermediary is detrimental, resulting in lower contributions, a higher probability of miscoordination, and lower payoffs.
Does homeownership hinder labor market activity? Evidence from housing privatization and restitution in Brno
Authors: Štěpán Mikula , Josef Montag
Published: January 2023

We study the effects of homeownership on labor force participation and unemployment. We exploit housing privatization and restitution after the fall of communism as a source exogenous assignment of homeowner/renter status, using a unique dataset from the city of Brno, Czech Republic. We do not find any evidence of homeownership hindering labor force participation. In fact, our estimates suggest that homeownership reduces unemployment by four to six percentage points. Homeownership appears to decrease the risk of unemployment by about one third to one half, relative to renters. The estimated effects on labor force participation are systematically around zero.
Old sins cast long shadows: The Long-term impact of the resettlement of the Sudetenland on residential
Authors: Martin Guzi , Peter Huber , Štěpán Mikula
Published: January 2023

We analyze the long-term impact of the resettlement of the Sudetenland after World War II on residential migration. This event involved expulsion of ethnic Germans and almost complete depopulation of an area of a country and its rapid resettlement by 2 million Czech inhabitants. Results based on nearest neighbor matching and regression discontinuity design show a higher population churn in resettled areas that continues today. The populations in resettled areas and in the remainder of the country share similar values and do not differ statistically in terms of their propensity to give donations, attend social events, and participate in voluntary work. However, we observe that resettled settlements have fewer local club memberships, lower turnout in municipal elections, and less frequently organized social events. This finding indicates substantially lower local social capital in the resettled settlements that is likely to have caused higher residential migration. This explanation is consistent with theoretical models of the impact of social capital on migration decisions.
A Competitive Audit Selection Mechanism with Incomplete Information
Authors: Miloš Fišar , Ondřej Krčál , Rostislav Jiří Špalek , James Tremewan
Published: January 2023

The experimental tax and regulatory compliance literature has shown the effectiveness of competitive audit selection mechanisms (ASMs) based on declarations and a signal of the taxpayers’ actual income. However, collecting information about actual income prior to audit selection is costly. In this article, we test the effectiveness of an endogenous ASM based solely on declared income. We show theoretically and in a laboratory experiment that this new endogenous ASM significantly increases compliance in comparison with an ASM where all taxpayers face audit with equal probability. However, a further consequence of conditioning solely on declared income is that poorer taxpayers are audited more frequently, reducing the effectiveness of this ASM in generating revenue and reducing inequality. We further compare the new mechanism with an ASM that also uses a noisy signal of actual income and show that it is a significant improvement over the other two ASMs in terms of compliance, revenue, and inequality. Our results suggest that ASMs that condition only on reported income can increase compliance but should be implemented with caution, and investing in acquiring information before audit selection can have substantial benefits.
Media Bias and Tax Compliance: Experimental Evidence
Authors: Miloš Fišar , Tommaso Reggiani , Fabio Sabatini , Jiří Špalek
Published: January 2023

We study the impact of media bias on tax compliance. Through a framed laboratory experiment, we assess how the exposure to biased news about government action affects compliance in a repeated taxation game. Subjects treated with positive news are significantly more compliant than the control group. The exposure to negative news, instead, does not prompt any significant reaction in respect to the neutral condition, suggesting that participants perceive the media negativity bias in the selection and tonality of news as the norm rather than the exception. Overall, our results suggest that biased news act as a constant source of psychological priming and play a vital role in taxpayers’ compliance decisions.
Responding to (Un)Reasonable Requests by an Authority
Authors: Vittorio Pelligra , Tommaso Reggiani , Zizzo Daniel John
Published: January 2023

We consider the notions of static and dynamic reasonableness of requests by an authority in a trust game experiment. The authority, modelled as the experimenter, systematically varies the experimental norm of what is expected from trustees to return to trustors, both in terms of the level of each request and in terms of the sequence of the requests. Static reasonableness matters in a self-biased way, in the sense that low requests justify returning less, but high requests tend to be ignored. Dynamic reasonableness also matters, in the sense that, if requests keep increasing, trustees return less compared to the same requests presented in random or decreasing order. Requests never systematically increase trustworthiness but may decrease it.
Lab-Sophistication: Does Repeated Participation in Laboratory Experiments Affect Pro-Social Behaviour?
Authors: Tiziana Medda , Vittorio Pelligra , Tommaso Reggiani
Published: January 2023

Experimental social scientists working at research-intensive institutions deal inevitably with subjects who have most likely participated in previous experiments. It is an important methodological question to know whether participants that have acquired a high level of lab-sophistication show altered pro-social behavioral patterns. In this paper, we focus both on the potential effect of the subjects’ lab-sophistication, and on the role of the knowledge about the level of lab-sophistication of the other participants. Our main findings show that while lab-sophistication per se does not significantly affect pro-social behaviour, for sophisticated sub-jects the knowledge about thecounterpart’s level of (un)sophistication may systematically alter their choices. This result should induce caution among experimenters about whether, in their settings, information about lab-sophistication can be inferred by the participants, due to the characteristics of the recruitment mechanisms, the management of the experimental sessions or to other contextual clues.
Narrative based information: is it the facts or their packaging that matters?
Authors: Heap Shaun Hargreaves , Aikaterini Karadimitropoulou , Eugenio Levi
Published: January 2023

People typically do not acquire new information about the facts of the economy through consulting official statistics; they read or listen to mediatype reports/stories on the economy where the facts are packaged in a story. This paper tests with an experiment whether the explanatory style used in such media-type stories affects individual decision making. We also compare this particular narrative influence with that of the actual facts contained in the story. Our subjects receive a media-type story about the economy before they play a minimum effort game. The media story has either good or bad background facts about the economy and we use the psychological theory of explanatory styles to present these facts in a narrative style designed to engender either optimism or pessimism. We find evidence that the explanatory style matters more than facts in the sense that optimistic styles support higher equilibria than pessimistic ones while the influence of the facts itself is weaker.
Social Capital and Mobility: An Experimental Study
Authors: Rostislav Staněk , Ondřej Krčál , Štěpán Mikula
Published: January 2023

Theoretical models of social capital (David, Janiak, and Wasmer 2010; Bräuninger and Tolciu 2011) predict that communities may find themselves in one of two equilibria: one with a high level of local social capital and low migration or one with a low level of local social capital and high migration. There is empirical literature suggesting that immigrants who join communities high in social capital are more likely to invest in local social capital and that the whole community will then end up in the equilibrium with high local social capital and low migration. However, this literature suffers from the selection of immigrants, which makes the identification challenging. In order to test the causal influence of the initial level of local social capital, we take the setup used in the theoretical models into the laboratory. We treat some communities by increasing the initial level of social capital without affecting the equilibrium outcomes. We find that while most communities end up in one of the two equilibria predicted by the theoretical models, the treated communities are more likely to converge to the equilibrium with a high level of local social capital and low migration.
Minimum wage and tolerance for inequality
Authors: Andrea Fazio , Tommaso Reggiani
Published: January 2023

We suggest that people advocate for equality also because they fear income losses below a given reference point. Stabilizing their baseline income can make workers more tolerant of inequality. We present evidence of this attitude in the UK by exploiting the introduction of the National Minimum Wage (NMW), which institutionally set a baseline pay reducing the risk of income losses for British workers at the bottom of the income distribution. Based on data from the British Household Panel Survey, we show that workers that benefited from the NMW program became relatively more tolerant of inequality and more likely to vote for the Conservative party.
The Grass Is Not Greener on the Other Side: The Role of Attention in Voting Behaviour
Authors: Lucie Coufalová , Štěpán Mikula
Published: January 2023

The effect of ranking and the effect of attention both increase the chances that candidates running in the top positions of electoral lists will win voters’ support. We exploit a variation in ballot layout (the location of the break between the first and second sides of the ballot) in the 2006–2017 Czech parliamentary elections to disentangle these effects and identify the effect of attention. We show that being listed on the reverse side of the ballot paper decreases electoral support by at least 50%.
The Impact of Immigration and Integration Policies On Immigrant-Native Labor Market Hierarchies
Authors: Martin Guzi , Martin Kahanec , Kureková Lucia Mýtna
Published: January 2023

Across European Union (EU) labor markets, immigrant and native populations exhibit disparate labor market outcomes, signifying widespread labor market hierarchies. While significant resources have been invested in migration and integration policies, it remains unclear whether these contribute to or mitigate labor market hierarchies between natives and immigrants. Using a longitudinal model based on individual-level EU LFS and country-level DEMIG POLICY and POLMIG databases, we explore variation in changes of immigration and integration policies across Western EU member states to study how they are associated with labor market hierarchies in terms of unemployment and employment quality gaps between immigrant and native populations. Our findings imply that designing less restrictive policies may help mitigate immigrant-native labor market hierarchies by reducing existing labor market disadvantages of immigrants and making the most of their potential.
Team Reasoning and Collective Moral Obligation
Authors: Blomberg Olle , Petersson Björn ,   Department of Philosophy, Florida State University
Published: January 2023

We propose a new account of collective moral obligation. We argue that several agents have a moral obligation together only if they each have (i) a context-specific capacity to view their situation from the group’s perspective, and (ii) at least a general capacity to deliberate about what they ought to do together. Such an obligation is irreducibly collective, in that it does not imply that the individuals have any obligations to contribute to what is required of the group. We highlight various distinctive features of our account. One such feature is that moral obligations are always relative to an agential perspective.
Acting-with: On the Development of a Public Realm on TikTok during the Pandemic and its Potential to Enable Action
Authors: Imbrasaite Jurgita ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: January 2023

The pandemic and subsequent wave of lockdowns in many countries led to a massive increase in TikTok users globally, boosting the platform’s public significance. Even if TikTok’s political potential is already established, the platform still lacks a theoretical underpinning as a space for action. Using both a political-philosophical as well as a techno-philosophical perspective, I seek to discuss and substantiate TikTok’s potential as a public realm that enables political action. Due to the unique algorithmic logic of this app, I argue that users are acting-with the algorithm when engaging in political action from home: be it in the form of national political protest or international acts of care and empowerment. I base my analysis on philosophical theory, cross-disciplinary TikTok research, and my own experiences on TikTok during the pandemic years.

Currently, during automated vehicle trials there are two personnel present within each test vehicle: the Safety Driver and the Test Assistant. This summary report presents recommendations on how to progress to advanced trials and perform the roles of the Safety Driver and Test Assistant remotely. The recommendations are based on a literature review and a stakeholder engagement. It was found that the terminology relating to remote operation used by the industry is inconsistent, so key terminology has been produced with the aim of promoting common use. The summary of roles, requirements and responsibilities of Safety Drivers, Test Assistants, and the Remote Operators (who would replace them) are presented. Following this, recommendations are given to enable remote operation of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). Finally, these recommendations have been used to generate a roadmap to enable remote operation of CAVs in the UK.

On The Evaluation of The Effect of Soil and Fertilizer Treatment on The Cultivation of Cereal Crops
Authors: Aliyev Z.H.
Published: January 2023

The article gives the results of studies of the effect of soil treatment and fertilizers on the productivity of winter wheat in the Ganja-Gazakh area of Azerbaijan. The positive effect of fertilizers on winter wheat plants is manifested only in well-cultivated soils with an environmental reaction close to neutrality. At the same time, it is proven that between the intensity of the application of mineral fertilizers and the productivity of cereal crops in the world, a close direct dependence is established. Therefore, the highest grain yield here was obtained in the manure variant 10t/ha + N90P90K60 57.1 c/ha, an increase of 24.3 c/ha or 74.1%, where the 40-50% yield increase is due to the application of fertilizers.

Authors: Jalal Al-Mosawi Aamir
Published: January 2023

Background: Cornelia de Lange syndrome is a rare genetic condition of highly variable phenotype making ranging from classic syndrome with many cardinal features to mild syndrome with less characteristic features. Materials and methods: The mother of a three and half years old boy brought her son to our clinic because of significant developmental delay and over-activity. The mother denied the presence of relevant family history. Results: The boy was mentally retarded and had facial dysmorphic features including thick eyebrows with synophrys, long or smooth philtrum, thin upper lip vermilion, and low set ears. The boy poor adaptive skills and has not achieved urine and bowel control and was unable to hold spoon appropriately to feed himself. He had no speech development and was not saying any word. At the clinic, he was very active, but he was responding to name and had acceptable eye contact and therefore, he was not considered to have autistic features. It was not possible to convince him to take a pen to scribble. Based on our extensive published experiences with treatment of mental retardation syndrome, we recommended an initial therapeutic course which included a course of intramuscular piracetam 600 mg given daily in the morning every third day (Ten doses over one month). Conclusion: An expert therapeutic recommendation for the condition is described.

EMERGENCE OF DIGITAL EVIDENCE IN BANGLADESHI COURTS FROM THE US BASED DIGITAL PLATFORMS: PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES
Authors: Ferdous Zannatul
Published: January 2023

Although a silent revolution of the digital court system has been marked in Bangladesh during the pandemic, the standard of the justice system in terms of digital evidencing is still far behind the same of the technologically developed countries. The socioeconomic progress through the ‘Digital Bangladesh’ movement has emerged as one of the biggest factors in the world of competition. However, existing studies demonstrate that the rising trend of the people’s reliance on online communication is also possibly responsible for many uncalculated judicial determinations due to the failure in proving or disproving the criminal communication. The United States-led online platforms like Facebook, Google, YouTube, WhatsApp and Instagram are the top digital platforms in Bangladesh and it is evident that Bangladesh has been regular in requesting the United States for particular private information for pending judicial proceedings. This article will explore to what extent the existing judicial proceedings of Bangladesh are affected by the unavailability of evidence that results in the benefit of doubt. The paper will assess the mutual interest, possible outcomes, and inherent challenges of a ‘Mutual Legal Assistance’ treaty between Bangladesh and the United States in guaranteeing rights to information (own evidence). A question regarding overall readiness of both the countries towards the deal will also be revolving around the existing evidence laws, role of the digital platforms and State responsibility for criminal application in cyberspaces. Finally, considering economic interests, national digital security and commitment to universally agreed principles of justice; this note will prescribe a framework for possible digital evidence sharing deal between the two States.
Towards Dynamic Velocity Prediction of NACRA 17
Authors: Knudsen Stig S. , Walther Jens H. , Legarth Brian N. , Shao Yanlin
Published: January 2023

NACRA 17 is a small foiling catamaran used in Olympic sailing. Sailing in the NACRA 17 is truly unsteady, especially in the foiling conditions. Dynamic velocity prediction has gained a lot of attention in recent years due to the unsteady nature of foiling sailboats. Different approaches have been applied to predict the motions of foiling or skimming boats in unsteady conditions. Typically, the aerodynamic forces are computed by the quasi-steady theory assumption. Static coefficients are used, and the applied velocities are corrected with boat motions. The hydrodynamic forces of a fully foiling boat can be computed in a similar fashion, but this method fails to include the effect of changes in the free surface as well as added mass. This paper proposes an approach where dynamic coefficients of the NACRA 17 hydrofoils are determined based on unsteady Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations with a free surface. In the simulations the foil is moved in prescribed motions in one degree of freedom (DOF) at a time and dynamic coefficients are extracted for different frequencies of motion. All coefficients are combined in a coupled system of equations, and the equations can be solved in 6 DOFs in the time domain. Test scenarios with time-varying conditions are simulated and compared with full dynamic CFD simulations. The initial investigation of the approach shows promising results, but more investigations are needed to validate the approach and to identify possible limitations.
Disparate Ontologies?

Published: January 2023

Disparate Ontologies? Takes a critical look at Philippe Descola’s four-field anthropological model for ontologies among hunter-gatherer societies. Descola’s model juxtaposes animism, totemism, analogism, and naturalism as reflecting different expressions of interiority and physicality and queries those four ontological concepts as comparative units of analysis. While Descola’s Beyond Nature and Culture (2013) was a ground-breaking exploration of ontological ethnology and anthropological theory, the present work questions whether animism and totemism should be considered as comparable units in cross-cultural anthropological studies. Disparate Ontologies? focuses on the interpretive suitability of the concepts of animism and totemism as comparable variables in comparative analysis by investigating a sample of traditional indigenous societies from the northernmost Northern Hemisphere. The work focuses on ethnographic examples of animism and totemism, as well as cyclical rebirth eschatology and forms of perspectivism in an attempt to provide insights into the similarities and differences of ontological reckonings among diverse peoples across the North.

The design of compounds that can discriminate between closely related target proteins remains a central challenge in drug discovery. Specific therapeutics targeting the highly conserved myosin motor family are urgently needed as mutations in at least six of its members cause numerous diseases. Allosteric modulators, like the myosin-II inhibitor blebbistatin, are a promising means to achieve specificity. However, it remains unclear why blebbistatin inhibits myosin-II motors with different potencies given that it binds at a highly conserved pocket that is always closed in blebbistatin-free experimental structures. We hypothesized that the probability of pocket opening is an important determinant of the potency of compounds like blebbistatin. To test this hypothesis, we used Markov state models (MSMs) built from over 2 ms of aggregate molecular dynamics simulations with explicit solvent. We find that blebbistatin’s binding pocket readily opens in simulations of blebbistatin-sensitive myosin isoforms. Comparing these conformational ensembles reveals that the probability of pocket opening correctly identifies which isoforms are most sensitive to blebbistatin inhibition and that docking against MSMs quantitatively predicts blebbistatin binding affinities (R2=0.82). In a blind prediction for an isoform (Myh7b) whose blebbistatin sensitivity was unknown, we find good agreement between predicted and measured IC50s (0.67 μM vs. 0.36 μM). Therefore, we expect this framework to be useful for the development of novel specific drugs across numerous protein targets.

D-cycloserine (DCS) is a drug that has generated great interest for its association with improvements in both learning and memory. Few studies have evaluated the effect of DCS on learning, extinction, and response recovery in operant conditioning. The present study aimed to evaluate, over three experiments with rats, the effect of DCS on the spontaneous recovery of a simple operant, and on the resurgence of operant behavior. DCS was expected to strengthen the extinction, and that a decrease in spontaneous recovery and resurgence would also be observed. The results showed a faster extinction in the groups that received DCS during the extinction; however, no differences were observed in the recovery of the response. Based on the present results, it is not possible to conclude that DCS is a supportive drug for learning processes such as exposure therapy.

A cue presented during Pavlovian extinction may help the recovery of the extinction memory, for which is called an extinction cue (EC). Pavlovian conditioning has been useful as a model of different behavior disorders and extinction as a model for their treatment. Extinguished responses may be recovered under different circumstances, akin to a relapse. Hence, it is important to strengthen extinction memory retrieval. There is contradictory evidence of the effectiveness of ECs to this end. There is also little information about the magnitude of response recovery prevention when using ECs. The magnitude of the ECs effect on response recovery was analyzed by a meta-analysis that considered possible sources of variance in the EC effect. The included studies were gathered mainly through scientific database search engines. Selection criteria included experiments that used a Pavlovian extinction and recovery procedure with an EC test. Effect size was calculated for each relevant experiment. Thirty-seven studies were included. These analyses showed that there is a robust effect of an extinction cue in reducing response recovery, d = 0.71, 95% CI [0.58, 0.85]. This effect is higher when a spontaneous recovery procedure is used and when the experiment is done with non-human animals. Interestingly, the type of control group did not affect the effect size. These results are robust under different statistical analyses, although a publication bias was detected.

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris es uno de los patógenos más importantes en la producción de brásicas. Este patógeno se disemina principalmente por semillas por semillas e ingresa a las plantas a través de los hidátodos provocando lesiones en los márgenes de las hojas en forma de “V”. La sobrevivencia y desarrollo de Xcc se ve afectada por factores climáticos como temperatura y humedad relativa. El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar las condiciones predisponentes para la pudrición negra de las brásicas basándose en temperatura y humedad relativa para la aparición de Xcc en la zona central de Chile. Se analizaron 30 estaciones meteorológicas distribuidas entre la región Metropolitana y Ñuble para determinar análisis mensuales y anuales. Se realizó un análisis del comportamiento de la temperatura mínima media, media, máxima media y humedad relativa durante los últimos 5 años y se contrastaron los resultados con condiciones medioambientales descritas para Xcc. Los resultados variaron entre región y entre tipo de análisis, reportando los meses de verano los más probables para la aparición de la enfermedad tomando en cuenta la temperatura máxima media. Sin embargo, para el análisis tomando en cuenta la temperatura mínima media y media arrojó bajas probabilidades de aparición de Xcc. Las condiciones climáticas de Chile podrían no favorecer el desarrollo de Xcc, sin embargo, existen reportes del patógeno en zonas con condiciones climáticas similares a las de Chile, además, se debe considerar la adaptación de los patógenos a cada localidad y los efectos del cambio climático en la distribución de microorganismos.

The purpose of this study is to identify the composition of non-volatile flavor compounds contained in steamed milkfish (Chanos chanos). This study was carried out at the Fisheries Product Processing Laboratory, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Padjadjaran University, Jatinangor; IPB Integrated Laboratory. The study was conducted experimentally by treating a sample of 100 grams of steamed milkfish (at 100°C for ± 30 minutes) to identify non-volatile compounds and 1 milkfish to test the description. Product description tests were carried out on samples which included appearance, flesh, aroma, texture, and taste. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) was used to identify non-volatile flavour compounds.  The findings revealed that steamed milkfish had 15 non-volatile flavor compounds identified from 15 amino acid compounds. The two umami-flavoring amino acids are 3.21% glutamic acid and 2.14% aspartic acid. The four sweet tasting amino acids are 1.31% alanine, 0.96% threonine, 1.13% glycine and 0.72% serine. The nine bitter amino acids are lysine 2.15%, leucine 1.74%, arginine 1.32%, valine 1.26%, isoleucine 1.16%, phenylalanine 0.95%, tyrosine 0.79%, methionine 0. .69% and 0.90% histidine. Steamed milkfish has a whole appearance with a bright yellowish color. The savory aroma of fresh steamed milkfish is in accordance with the characteristics of milkfish that live in brackish water. The texture of the meat is dense and very dense. The taste of savory steamed milkfish is according to its kind.
