Published: November 2022

Com o advento da comunicação de massas, potencializada pelas tecnologias de informação, por meio da internet e das mídias digitais, a forma de difusão da História se alterou, possibilitando a participação de novos agentes, especialistas ou não, por novos meios de divulgação. Uma das mídias que se utilizam de pressupostos da História é o videogame. A construção das narrativas lúdicas e interativas presentes nos jogos eletrônicos inscrevem-se como uma forma de entendimento das representações e do imaginário social, repercutindo no alcance e nas recepções de narrativas históricas por um público considerado leigo. No entanto, surge uma questão: quais são as audiências possíveis da História e como podemos analisá-las? Esse é um tópico que problematizo a partir da discussão de autores que se debruçam em estudar as diversas formas de difusão e recepção da História por meio do campo da História Pública.
Evaluation of extractive distillation using efficiency correlation and experimental data
Authors: Barros António André Chivanga
Published: November 2022

In order to evaluate the behavior of extractive distillation columns efficiency was used the correlation developed by Barros & Wolf, which considers the mass and heat transfer parameters, based on the physical and thermal characteristic of ideal and non-ideal liquid mixtures. The results obtained from Barros & Wolf correlation efficiency were compared with the experimental data obtained by Meirelles. For all cases studied, the solvent used to separate each mixture, reflect on the efficiency values in extractive distillation column. Those factors are more strongly when the interaction between the liquid and vapor phase in the column promote the turbulence, factor predominant on mass and heat transference. The correlation used here shows good approximation when the data from this correlation were compared with that from real profile data obtained by Meirelles, for extractive distillation column. The precision of this correlation is due the mass and heat phenomenon are involved in real process and the behavior efficiency along of distillation column is similar that described in the literature. For this, due the high complexity associated with carried out experiment in laboratory, the correlation used here can be explore to evaluate the profile of extractive distillation operations.

In the world, Wheat is produced in an area of about two hundred million hectares. The 80% population is growing wheat in Pakistan. The top wheat producing countries Pakistan stands in 10th number. Biotic and abiotic factors, adverse environmental conditions and decline in cultivation area the wheat production decreasing day by day in Pakistan. For increasing the yield, there is a need to develop new wheat lines. For that motive, the present experiment was planned. F1 generation nine cross combinations (XJ-22×XJ-24, XJ-22×XJ-25, XJ-22×XJ-23, XJ-24×XJ-22, XJ-24×XJ-23, XJ-23×XJ-22, XJ-23×XJ-25, XJ-25×XJ-22, and XJ-25 × XJ-23) were used. The F1 hybrids compared with the local wheat varieties (Faisalabad 2008, Ujala 2016 and Johar 2016). The selected material was grown with three replications under randomized complete block design during typical sowing date in the field zone of Plant Breeding and Genetics in University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. From the genotypes, yield and yield-related traits were collected, and data was analyzed for yield and yield-contributing parameters using variance analysis and correlation. Among crosses difference was detected by analysis of variance. Study of correlation showed that positive correlation between crosses grains per spike and all yielding features such as grain yield per spike, plant height, peduncle length, spike length, spikelets per spike, thousand grain weight, and tillers per plant and yield per plant except for spike density. The superior crosses and wheat lines can be further used to develop new high yielding wheat varieties in order to obtain high wheat production.

To start a breeding strategy, breeder should make a selection of superior plants with the help of superior morphological characteristics in a segregating population. The breeder should have the knowledge about alleles with associated characters to yield and their inheritance pattern from one generation to another. The breeder should have the ability to choose the superior plant by phenotypically because phenotype is a true representative of genotype. The qualitative characters can be select on the base of the phenotype because these characters are controlled by one genes but phenotypic selection not reliable for quantitative characters because quantitative traits are controlled by more than one gene and environmental factors have great effect on them. For this purpose the nine crosses that were produced by the cross combination of four parental lines (XJ-22, XJ-23, XJ-24, XJ-25) previous year to study morphological parameters like plant height, length of spike, peduncle length, grains per spike, spikelets per spike, spike density, grain yield per spike, 1000-grain weight, tillers per plant and yield per plant.

One Hundred Years of Archaeological Work in Jordan
Authors: Ibrahim Moawiyah Mahmoud
Published: November 2022

This article deals with major achievements in the field of archaeology and cultural heritage in Jordan since the 19th century, the time when many travelers explored Jordan and Palestine and paid attention to the richness of the Archaeological and historical sites. The Department of Antiquities was established in 1923 to manage the archaeological sites and excavations as well as restoration work in various sites of the country. As well as bylaws of antiquities ere issued in 1934. Since then extensive excavations and surveys took place by foreign expeditions, and later on with participation of local institutions. Archaeological and cultural resource management programs were established in a number of Jordanian universities for training local archaeologists to undertake field research projects in cooperation with international institutions. A national museum (Jordan Museum) as well as several local museums and university museums were established and made accessible for local communities. The Department of Antiquities developed a program entitled (MEGA-Jordan) to inventory and manage archaeology sites at a national level.  International research centers were established in Jordan including the American, British, French, German and Spanish, to conduct archaeological work and to accommodate researchers from different parts of the world.  Six Jordanian properties were inscribed in the World Heritage List: Petra, Quseir Amra, Um er-Rasas, Wadi Rum, Baptism Site and As-Salt.

Published: November 2022

The presence of gelatin components can be identified through fat, protein and DNA. DNA can be obtained through the DNA isolation process which is the process of separating DNA from other components of the cell. The DNA purification stage is the most important thing in DNA isolation because at this stage it can reduce to a minimum the number of contaminants in DNA isolates to determine the purity and concentration of the DNA isolate obtained. The purpose of this technique is to produce DNA isolates that are low inhibitors or are in the purity range of 1.7-2.1. The extraction method used in this study used the double wash technique, the technique was modified from the test stage following the manual kit used, it's just that the technique used was modified at the washing stage with each washing done twice in the washing section. first and second washing so that a total of four items of washing were carried out. The results of the DNA isolates were then analyzed for the purity and concentration of DNA obtained using a nanophotometer, the DNA isolates obtained were in the range of 4,400 - 5,500 ng/µL with an average of 4,950 ng/µL. As for the purity value measured at the wavelength A260/A280, the results were obtained with a purity range between 1,760 - 1,840 with an average of 1,800. This research concludes that all the extracted samples show the results of DNA isolates that fall into the category of good DNA and meet the requirements needed in molecular analysis.

Genrers rörlighet

The Mobility of Genres. The Dilemma of Genre Definition, a Semantic PerspectiveFundamentally there are two major ways of defining a (literary) genre. If genres are conceived of as logical classes, the definition is subjected to the demands of class-definitions, in order to function as terms in scientific discourse. However, if genres are conceived of as cultural or social conventions, the definition has another logical character. The genres of the first type are referred to as theoretical genres, the genres of the second type, historical genres. This article describes a number of problems associated with the first theory, for example, their lack of hermeneutical value, since they per definition are not text-inherent. The historical genre, by contrast, allows for a certain vagueness on the part of definition. This article also considers the logical problem of falsification and verification of the theoretical genres.The distinction natural language and meta-language is evoked, to indicate the fact that natural languages are constantly defying this distinction. How then to define these genre-terms, if they belong to a natural language? The fundamental dualistic character (res–verba, sign–concept, word–meaning, etc.) of the realistic semantic is described, as is its problematic nature in the enterprise of defining types. The pragmatic semantic offers a solution for this problem, conceiving of meaning as something existing in the use of language, not as anything outside of use, and thus avoiding the dualism of the realistic semantic. The use is rule-governed, and an utterance is an element in a language-game, subject to rules. The logical consequence of this, is that a definition must be contextually fixed. Thus, if the genre-terms: 1) belong to the ordinary language and not only to the language of science, and 2) if the purpose is to describe the rules governing the use, then the only possible conclusion concerning this task, is to fix language-use within the space and the time dealt with by the investigation. This may result in a certain vagueness of definition, but the gain is the acquiescence of great hermeneutical value, since the genre, conceived of in this way, exists both inside and outside the text, thus incorporating not only textual meaning, but also cultural, social or ideological meaning.
Projektifieringen

Projectification. Literary Studies as Commodity

The article contains a critique of the project form which the humanities at large have embraced during the past few decades. The ”project” is not only a word we attach to our research efforts; it is a concept that has far-reaching consequences regarding how we read, think, write and act as scholars. The projectification of the humanities is not an isolated phenomenon, but part of a larger development. This article addresses a number of the consequences of this tendency in the context of literary scholarship, suggesting that: 1) the draft becomes more important than the realization; 2) the research tends to be standardized; 3) the academic activity is segmented; 3) economical means are regarded as ends in themselves; 4) a new type of research subject arises through the interpellation of the research foundations; 5) stress and sickliness becomes frequent among researchers and PhD-students, since projectification gives rise to a ”bragging culture”. Finally the article argues that projectification is one component of a more extensive development, in which activity has become an end in itself. Following Louis Althusser, Georg Lukács and Luc Boltanski & Eve Chiapello this article argues that these developments originate in the logic of capitalism or in the dialectic of enlightenment. It is thus difficult to find a simple solution to the problem. However, the article ends with an argument for more modesty in terms of research, and simultaneously discerns a utopian element in the research plans that are never carried out.

Easy Money? Money, Power and Value in the Field of Comparative Literature.

This article argues that money is an important concern within the field of Comparative Literature in Sweden. The discussion centers on money, power and value in relation to Swedish universities in general, and the field of Comparative Literature in particular. Primarily, this article argues that different forms of money are endowed with different forms of ”value” and that these differences have a rather large impact.

This article opens with a discussion and analysis of the relation between Swedish universities, the ideals of new public management, and money. It then considers literary research in the field of sociology of literature, literary historiography and memoirs, and concludes with a brief discussion about the importance of the source of funding, considering two examples from the Department of Literature at Uppsala University in the 1960s and 1970s. The article concludes that money is an incredibly powerful and symbolic agent in the field of Comparative Literature, and that there is no such thing as easy money.
REVIEW: STEADY AND TRANSIENT ANALYSIS OF ENGINE CYLINDER HEAD WITH FINS AT 3000C AND 5000C
Authors: Vijaykant Pandey Raushan
Published: November 2022

Heat is created when gasoline is consumed in an engine. Friction between the changing pieces generates extra heat. Around 30% of the power emitted is converted into usable work, while the other 70% must be withdrawn from the engine to keep the components from melting. Long surfaces called fins are installed at the perimeter of the engine cylinder in air-cooled I.C engines to increase heat switch charge. That is why fin evaluation is critical for increasing heat transfer fee. The major purpose of this work is to review previous research done to increase heat transfer charge of cooling fins by modifying cylinder fin form and fabric. Keywords: IC Engine, Fins, Engine performance, Efficiency , Heat Transfer, Thermal Analysis, Steady State Analysis.

Published: November 2022

Interactions between spermatozoa and bacterial species in ejaculates comes along with deleterious effects on the structure and function of male gametes. However, the effect of bacterial load on the seminal plasma remains unexplored. Therefore, this study was focused on the identification of bacterial species present in Duroc boar semen (n=18), quantification of the bacterial load (CFU) and alterations to the biochemical parameters of seminal plasma. The computer-assisted semen analysis (CASA) analysed the progressive motility (PRO; motility≥25µm/s) of spermatozoa, their concentration and kinematic parameters. The MALDI Biotyper was used for the bacterial characterization of fresh ejaculates. Seminal plasma was separated and biochemical analysis was carried out using the Randox RX Monza analyzer. Calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), total proteins (TP), aspartate transaminase (AST), alanine transaminase (ALT), cholesterol (CHOL), bilirubin (BR), albumins (ALB) and uric acid (UA) were subjected to the Pearson correlation with CFU and PRO. The bacterial identification showed the prevalence of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The correlation analysis showed that the progressive motility of spermatozoa was strongly dependent (-0.799; P<0.01) on the seminal bacterial load. Moreover, a negative significant correlation (-0.810; P<0.001) was detected between CFU and Mg concentration. Also ALT (-0.647; P<0.01) and ALB (-0.484; P<0.05) were negatively affected by the bacterial load. Altogether, the presence of bacterial species may adversely affect the progressive motility as well as the biochemical composition of seminal plasma and thereby create unfavorable conditions for the sperm survival. Further analyses are necessary to reveal interactions between semen and bacteria.

Published: November 2022

The present investigation was focused on the effect of Bacillus megaterium enriched to the Artemia nauplii and sprayed on the supplemented feed was fed to the white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei postlarvae (PL) to obtain high survival and growth. Artemia nauplii enriched with different levels of B. megaterium (5×107, 5×109 and 5×1011 cfu /mL) fed to postlarvae for a period of 30 days. Similarly, supplemented feed with probiotic of different levels fed to PL for a time period of 15 days. Postlarvae fed with 5×109 cfu cells (E2) of B. megaterium enriched Artemia nauplii and supplemented feed produce better survival and growth when compared to that of other concentrations and control group. The specific growth rate was found to be maximum in postlarvae fed with B. megaterium enriched Artemia and supplemented feed when compared to the control group. The biochemical constituents, such as protein, lipid and carbohydrate contents were considerably more in PL fed with both feeds, particularly at 5×109 cfu cells. In the challenging study, results showed a higher survival rate in postlarvae fed with enhanced Artemia nauplii and supplemented feed of E2. Therefore, it is evident that 5×109 cfu cells of B. megaterium can be considered as an appropriate concentration for the growth and survival of L. vannamei postlarvae.

This study aimed to present the interaction of Mannooligosaccharide (MOS) produced by optimum hydrolytic reaction of the recombinant mannanase KMAN treated defatted copra meal (DCM) to bacterial aggregation activity and to microbial changes in simulated gastro-intestinal tract which were two main functions of prebiotics as a decoy receptor and a substrate for bacterial fermentation, respectively. The suitable ratio of KMAN and DCM (0.8U:1mg) achieved high DCM hydrolysate-MOS production of 2.13-2.38 g/l during 6-24 h. It enhanced Limosilactobacillus reuteri KUB-AC5 growth for 0.32-0.33 h-1 and accelerated autoaggregation activity by 95.86% and 62.89% at 37 and 42°C, respectively. It decreased autoaggregation activities of Salmonella Enteritidis DMST17368 by 75.03-81.66%, and Lactobacillus johnsonii KUNN19-2 by 38.68-55.63% at 24 h. By simulated human GI model, COPRA-MOS significantly enhanced only Clostridium coccoides-Eubacterium rectale at 24 h with high acetic acid concentration of 87.43 mM. Whereas the chicken simulation model led to low abundance of Enterobacteriaceae but a higher Lactobacillus population with acetic acid concentration of 22.94 mM. These results suggested that COPRA-MOS could potentially apply for poultry industry as it exhibited beneficial effect on cecal fermentation and could be used as a decoy to prevent colonization of a pathogen while to increase the autoaggregation leading to adherence of a probiotic.

Published: November 2022

Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) and polysaccharide meningococcal (pMen) vaccines are required to travel to some countries, medical staff to deal with disease carriers, and for special cases as well. However, there were not enough studies on the immunogenic intervention between them when given together or in combination. Hence, we tried to assess the antibody-mediated immune response in groups of mice when different BCG vaccines and pMen were combined or given together, either concurrently or with a 14-day break between them. The antibody titer was measured in each group after 21 and 42 days from the first injection. Our results showed that it was safe and effective to give these two vaccines combined or simultaneously. Moreover, they exhibited a potent synergistic effect even if there was a 14 days gap between their administration. However, more research is needed to investigate the immunological intervention's cellular-mediated response.

Published: November 2022

In this research the production of α-amylase enzyme using Bacillus spp. bacteria, and biomass production of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast using three types of media were assayed. The production of α-amylase enzyme is realized through two types of fermentations, liquid fermentation where bacterial culture Bacillus spp. is cultivated in LB medium, and solid-state fermentation where industrial wastes such as potato and banana peels are used as substrate. Cultivation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast is done using three different media: Yeast-Peptone-Dextrose, Yeast-Peptone-Sucrose and molasses. Based on the obtained results, it is concluded that the process of enzyme production using industrial waste, as well as yeast biomass production has a potential, which should be further researched.

Published: November 2022

Species of the Rhizopus genus are often involved in the moulding of bread and bakery products. Essential oils (EOs) are a suitable alternative to extend the shelf life of food. This research was focused on testing the effect of selected EOs on the growth of Rhizopus species. Tested strains were isolated from mouldy breads. The antifungal activity of EOs against R. stolonifer and R. oryzae strains was determined by micro-atmospheric method (625 μL EO/L air) during 7 days of cultivation. Eight EOs, thyme, red thyme, savory, caraway, marjoram, wild thyme, and oregano 100% inhibited the growth of all strains. Basil, sage, and anise EOs only partially inhibited the growth of strains. Subsequently, the minimum inhibitory doses were determined using micro-atmospheric method. Minimal inhibition doses were 250 μL/L for thyme and red thyme EO, 250 and 500 μL/L for savory EO, 250 and 500 μL/L for oregano EO, 500 and ˃500 μL/L for wild thyme EO, ˃500 μL/L for caraway and marjoram EOs. Strains of the genus Rhizopus reacted differently to the presence of EOs. Thyme and red thyme were evaluated as the most effective EOs in this study.

Tribulus terrestris L. is an herbaceous plant native to India, widely used as a natural sexual stimulant by traditional medicine in China, India, and Greece, and also for the treatment of various diseases for example low blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases, kidney, and skin diseases, etc. Tribulus extracts are rich in numerous biologically active compounds, such as steroidal saponins, alkaloids, lignan amides, and flavonoids, which are useful for the effective treatment of sexual performance, hormonal and sexual problems. The main goal of our in vitro study was to demonstrate the potential consequences of Tribulus terrestris L. extract on TM3 cell parameters such as cell viability, membrane integrity, lysosomal activity, and steroid hormone secretion. The extract was applied to mice Leydig cells at various concentrations (ranging from 37.5 µg/mL to 600 µg/mL) for 24 h. Based on the obtained data, we may claim statistically significant inhibition of cell viability at 300 µg/mL (P < 0.0001) and 600 µg/mL (P < 0.0001). At the same concentrations, there was a statistically significant decline in both cell membrane integrity (P < 0.05; P < 0,0001) and lysosomal activity (P < 0.05; P < 0.001). Hormone secretion was significantly increased at 200 µg/mL (P < 0.05). To better understand how Tribulus terrestris L. affects the reproductive systems of animals or humans, further research must be done.

Blackcurrant fruits (Ribes nigrum L.) or black chokeberry fruits (Aronia melanocarpa L.) rich in phytochemicals that may act as potent antioxidant and anticancer agents have recently gained increasing attention. A beneficial health effect of blackcurrants and chokeberries is mostly attributed to their phenolic and anthocyanin contents. We investigated the influence of blackcurrant and chokeberry extracts at the concentration range 10-100 µg/mL (24h) on human ovarian granulosa cells HGL5 and human ovarian carcinoma cells OVCAR-3. All parameters were evaluated spectrophotometrically. Cell viability was measured by AlamarBlueTM assay, and the release of steroid hormones (17β-estradiol and progesterone) was assayed by ELISA. The results showed that the viability of non-cancer cells HGL5 significantly increased by blackcurrant extract at a concentration of 10 µg/mL and by chokeberry extract at 10, 20, 50, and 100 µg/mL concentrations. The number of viable cancer cells OVCAR-3 was significantly reduced by blackcurrant extract at the concentrations of 20, 50 and by chokeberry extract at 100 µg/mL and at 100 µg/mL. Chokeberry extract slightly stimulated 17β-estradiol release by HGL5 cells and blackcurrant extract exhibited stimulatory effect on 17β-estradiol release at a concentration of 10 µg/mL. On the other hand, both extracts failed to affect progesterone release. Extracts did not cause any significant changes in total superoxide dismutase (SOD) level determined in HGL5 cells. On the other hand, a significant decrease of SOD level was noted in cancer cells OVCAR-3 treated by blackcurrant extract at the concentrations 20, 50 and 100 µg/mL and in cancer cells treated by chokeberry extract at a concentration of 100 µg/mL. In conclusion, this in vitro study suggests the action of both, blackcurrant and chokeberry extracts on human ovarian cell functions including viability and secretory activity, and possible use for the benefit of human health.

Published: November 2022

The article examined three widely accepted approaches to sustainable investing: Socially Responsible Investing (SRI), Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), and impact investing. Nevertheless, these sustainable investment strategies are under-institutionalised, characterised by a lack of consistent terminology and mixed return performance. Given that these inconsistencies are prevalent in academic research regarding sustainable investing, the paper aimed to perform a systematic review of related studies to compare, contrast and consolidate these sustainable investment approaches. The findings of this study reveal overlapping conceptual frameworks between SRI, ESG and impact investing. The paper recommends the development of a consistent conceptual framework for sustainable investing.

Image and Perception of RSS in the Context of Cultivating National Men and Hinduism: An Empirical Study of People's Perception

It is in some cases said that officers battle the last conflict. Likewise, political investigators will generally observe the latest worldwide scourge in each cultural sickness they experience. During the 1940s and 1950s, numerous libertarian developments and systems were erroneously seen as extremist. During the 1960s and 1970s, various third-world patriot developments were seen as and maintained to be socialist; and since the Iranian upheaval of 1979, fundamentalisms appear to have thrived. More than one of these names has been applied to similar development. In India, Hindu Nationalism was—regularly still is—seen as fundamentalist, especially by its Indian pundits. At the same time, outside spectators have viewed it through and through as too simple to even consider regarding it as what might be compared to Islamic radicalism. Like this, before being inquisitive about the deep underlying hierarchical foundations of strict radicalism in India, we need to initially settle on whether it is strict by any stretch of the imagination.
The Implication of ICT on Business Education

This article outlines the significant difficulties and delivers a glimpse into the future of education and ICT. In the introduction, we learn about the so-called "knowledge-based society" and how technological advancements have opened the way for educational progress and spurred the creation of new data. The article tends to discuss the significance of Involvement in the modification of the teaching-learning process by each educational agent (student/teacher). This research over the impact of ICT in education is focused on the doctrinal methodology. It makes use of several research articles from books and journals to formulate the final opinion. The analysis conducted by the researcher prominently makes use of primary sources of information.

The teaching and learning processes in Business Education at higher institutions in several countries, including India, are still primitive. Due to the widespread lack of enthusiasm for innovation, both professors and students continue to rely on textbook knowledge and lecturer-led class verbalization. Both academics and students believe that the administration has ignored education. As a result, many Business Education teachers and students have not yet wholly embraced ICT for teaching and learning. As a result, we are soliciting research in this area. Incorporating ICT into education can aid in developing a new model of learning and teaching in a world reduced to a small village by technology. Every industry and government has been transformed by the widespread use of information and communication technology (ICT) over the past two decades.
