The impact of adopting of assessment for learning and adaptive learning system on students’ foreign language performance
Authors: Forgor Alhassan Tijani
Published: March 2021

Globalisation has made the learning of foreign language very important, however, to provide effective teaching and learning of foreign languages to achieve better performance (anticipated targets) is necessary to understand the factors influencing teaching, learning, and attainment of learning targets of students. Based on factors such as knowing of course content, knowing of assessment schedule, frequent assessment, feedback after assessment, the adoption of adaptive learning system, and individualized learning environment the paper examines their impact on effective teaching and learning as well as better performance of learners at RUDN University. Using sum of squares regression model, it was found that knowing of course content and frequent assessment positively influence effective teaching and learning, while frequent assessment, feedback after assessment, and an individualised learning environment promote better performance of students by helping attain anticipated targets during their foreign language course. This is instructive to stakeholders to take the necessary steps required to help enhance teaching, learning and performance of learners.
Are Stablecoins Safe Havens for Traditional Cryptocurrencies? An Empirical Study during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Xie Yao , Kang Sang Baum , Zhao Jialin
Published: March 2021

We investigate whether stablecoins are safe havens for traditional cryptocurrencies with fresh evidence from the recent crisis period of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our results support the safe-haven properties of Tether for both before and during the pandemic. For Digix, a gold-backed stablecoin with relatively small market capitalization, we find a change in characteristics before and during the pandemic, but do not find statistically significant evidence for its safe-haven properties. Furthermore, we document that, when considering the economic benefits and costs of adding safe-haven assets into cryptocurrency portfolios, the one with Tether outperforms both a naked portfolio and the portfolio with a traditional safe-haven asset such as gold.
Compression Behaviour of Concrete Cylinder with Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Confinement
Authors: Senu Norsalwa Aisyah , Ismail Ruqayyah , Wahid Norlizan , Ahmad Hazrina , Ahmad Zakwan Fariz Aswan
Published: March 2021

Carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) confinement has always been one of the strengthening methods available for a vulnerable concrete column. This paper presents the compressive behaviour of nine circular concrete cylinders with CFRP confinement. Three different specimen conditions considered; full CFRP confinement, partial CFRP confinement and unconfined (control specimen). Nine concrete cylinders with 100 mm x 200 mm were tested under compression load.  It is discovered that full and partial CFRP confinement had improved concrete cylinder ultimate load capacity by 300% and 150% respectively when compared to the unconfined concrete cylinder. With 150% strength enhancement achieved by partial CFRP confined specimen, it is proven that partial CFRP confinement does provide sufficient confinement in enhancing concrete column strength as full CFRP confinement. This finding has led to remarkable discoveries which with lesser CFRP used the functionality of CFRP as strengthening material can still be utilized. Therefore, could contribute significant input to the construction industry in using lesser CFRP for more sustainable material approach.
Analysis of Vocabulary Definitions of the Word “Uspech” (“Success”): Problem of Verification of Linguoculturological Constructions
Authors: Eremina M. A.
Published: March 2021

A method for solving the actual problem of verification of linguocultural constructions is proposed. Attention is paid to the establishment of the correctness and effectiveness of the application of one of the types of semantic analysis in modern linguistic studies devoted to the concept of “success” and its lexical representatives. The proposed meta-research approach is aimed at identifying and searching for the causes of significant discrepancies in the results of definitional analysis when the theoretical base, scientific apparatus and research strategy coincide. This approach allows the author to consider a number of controversial cases of the use of definitional analysis associated with its object, subject and metalanguage, and to solve some important methodological issues: what kind of linguistic sources are involved in collecting material; how the definitional analysis of a polysemantic word is carried out; in what aspect the interlingual comparison of the dictionary definitions of one word is carried out; what advantages and disadvantages of different formats for describing semantic components are identified as a result of definitional analysis, etc. Critical analysis of research techniques alternates with constructive sentences for the semantic analysis of the dictionary definitions of the word success in modern Russian. General observations on the features of the application of the analytical method under consideration are proposed as conclusions.
Using Mind Mapping to Teach Speaking Skill to the Tenth Grade Students of MAN Palopo
Authors: Syam Andi Tenrisanna , Yahya Amalia , Riska
Published: March 2021

The purpose of this research is to find out whether the students who are taught by using mind mapping have better achievement than the students who were taught by using a non-mapping strategy. This research used a quasi-experimental method. The population of this research consisted of tenth-grade students of MAN Palopo. The writer used purposive sampling, where there were two classes as the sample. They were; class X MIA I and X MIA II. Each class consisted of 30 students. The writer gave pretest and posttest to the students—three aspects of speaking skill assessed, namely accuracy, fluency, and comprehensibility. The result of this research shows that the students who were taught by using mind mapping did not have better achievement than the students who were taught by using non-mind mapping. The data showed that t-obtained was higher than t-table (t-o > t-table). The findings of t-obtained were 0.216, whereas the level of significance of 0.05 (5%) was 2.002. It means that 2.002 ≥ 0.216. The orienting number of significance shows that 0.830 > 0.05. Therefore, the Null Hypothesis (H0) accepted, and the Alternative Hypothesis (H1) rejected. Some problems found by the writer namely, the students switch code to speak up because they did not know the English meaning of the words, the students still read the text to speak because they did not memorize the language pattern that had been given. So, they had difficulties in speaking without reading the text. They felt hungry, tired, and bored in the class, and some of the students had meetings’ organization after they were an exam.

Hubungan Antara Lama Penggunaan Kontrasepsi Suntik Depo Medroxy Progesteron Acetate (DMPA) dengan Kadar Kolesterol Total pada Akseptor KB
Authors: Prasetyorini Tri , Islami Yasyavia Hatifah , Fajrunni’mah Rizana , Karningsih Karningsih
Published: March 2021

Latar belakang: jumlah penduduk terbanyak di dunia posisi ke-4 adalah Indonesia. Upaya untuk menekan jumlah pertumbuhan penduduk yaitu dengan program Keluarga Berencana (KB). Secara nasional pengguna KB yang paling banyak adalah KB suntik Depo Medroxy Progesteron Acetate (DMPA) yaitu lebih dari 50% dari jumlah peserta KB aktif. DMPA yang mengandung hormon Progesteron dapat mempengaruhi metabolisme lemak, khususnya lipoprotein. Lama pemakaian kontrasepsi suntik lebih dari 1 tahun akan mengakibatkan ketidak seimbangan hormon estrogen dan progesteron yang berakibat penurunan HDL dan peningkatan LDL sehingga akan meningkatkan kadar kolesterol total. Tujuan: diketahuinya hubungan antara lama penggunaan kontrasepsi suntik DMPA dengan kadar kolesterol total pada akseptor KB DMPA. Metode: jenis penelitian yang digunakan observasional analitik cross sectional dengan jumlah sampel sebanyak 35 responden. Uji statistik yang digunakan adalah uji chi-square dengan tingkat kepercayaan 95%.  Hasil: menunjukan bahwa nilai p sebesar 0,011 (p<0,05). Hal ini berarti bahwa terdapat hubungan antara lama penggunaan kontrasepsi suntik Depo Medroxy Progesteron Acetate (DMPA) dengan kadar kolesterol total pada akseptor KB. Sehingga semakin lama penggunaan kontrasepsi DMPA maka semakin meningkatkan kadar kolesterol. Kesimpulan: terdapat hubungan antara lama penggunaan kontrasepsi suntik DMPA dengan kadar kolesterol total.

Authors: Novelia Devita , Sari Wulan Purnama
Published: March 2021

Culture plays an important role in oneself, when one moves and settles into a new environment, they must adapt to the new environment and culture. The interaction between Indian migrants and the residents of Jakarta creates anxiety and uncertainty for Indian migrants. This study describes the process of cultural adaptation as well as the efforts made by Indian migrants in managing the feeling of anxiety and uncertainty in cross – cultural  communication, using Gudykunts' theory of anxiety / uncertainty management. The approach used is qualitative with phenomenological methods and data collection techniques by interviews and observations. The anxiety faced by migrants is due to differences in attitudes and behavior of Jakarta residents compared to Indians in general, while the uncertainty that arises is due to the inability of newcomers to predict the behavior and circumstances that will occur. Indian immigrants try to adjust themselves in order to create effective communication with the residents of Jakarta, because according to migrants adapting to the Jakarta environment is easier than adapting to the behavior and attitudes of the Jakarta residents themselves.Budaya memainkan peran penting dalam diri individu, sehingga ketika individu tinggal dan menetap di lingkungan baru, individu harus melakukan adaptasi terhadap lingkungan dan budaya barunya. Interaksi antara pendatang India dengan penduduk Jakarta menimbulkan kecemasan (anxiety) dan ketidakpastian (uncertainty) dalam diri pendatang. Penelitian ini mendeskripsikan proses adaptasi budaya serta upaya yang dilakukan pendatang India dalam pengelolaan kecemasan dan ketidakpastian dalam komunikasi antarbudaya, dengan menggunakan teori anxiety/uncertainty management dari Gudykunts. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah kualitatif dengan metode fenomenologi dan teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah wawancara dan obeservasi. Kecemasan yang dihadapi pendatang adalah karena adanya perbedaan sikap dan perilaku penduduk Jakarta dibandingkan orang India pada umumnya, sedangkan ketidakpastian yang muncul dikarenakan ketidakmampuan pendatang dalam memprediksi perilaku maupun keadaan yang akan terjadi. Pendatang India berupaya menyesuaikan diri guna menciptakan komunikasi yang efektif dengan penduduk Jakarta, karena menurut pendatang beradaptasi dengan lingkungan Jakarta lebih mudah dibandingkan beradaptasi dengan perilaku dan sikap penduduk Jakarta sendiri.

Niektóre kierunki, cele i uwarunkowania przemysłu Polski w okresie transformacji
Authors: Rochnowski Henryk
Published: March 2021

Jedną z podstawowych cech zapoczątkowanej w końcu 1989 r. ustrojowej transformacji państwa jest przechodzenie od gospodarki centralnie planowanej, typu administracyjno-nakazowego, do gospodarki rynkowej. Celem tego procesu jest m.in. dążenie do integracji Polski z gospodarkami krajów rozwiniętych, zwłaszcza Unii Europejskiej. Szczególnie istotne miejsce w tym procesie zajmuje przemysł, który w około 50% uczestniczy w tworzeniu dochodu narodowego naszego kraju. W przypadku tego działu gospodarki wywołuje to konieczność zwiększenia przede wszystkim jego efektywności ekonomicznej, innowacyjności i konkurencyjności, głównie na drodze zmiany struktury gałęziowej, własnościowej, wielkościowej a także przestrzennej. Do podstawowych przesłanek ograniczających tempo tych przemian należy niedostatek środków finansowych, zarówno ze strony państwa, jak i prywatnych przedsiębiorców, dla których w minionym ustroju nie było sprzyjających warunków do gromadzenia kapitału. Stąd zasięg i intensywność transformacji przemysłu w Polsce zależy w dużym stopniu od wielkości bezpośrednich nakładów inwestycyjnych kapitału zagranicznego oraz od rodzimej prywatnej przedsiębiorczości.

KAJIAN EFEKTIFITAS ORNAMEN GIGI BALANG SEBAGAI IDENTITAS INFRASTRUKTUR KOTA JAKARTA
Authors: Aulia Rahmiati
Published: March 2021

: Jakarta sebagai ibukota provinsi Indonesia menjadi salah satu Kota dengan jumlah penduduk paling banyak. Melihat kembali latar belakang kebudayaan asli Jakarta atau yang dikenal dengan budaya Betawi dari asal kata Batavia. Budaya Betawi sendiri merupakan akulturasi dari adanya berbagai macam etnis dan budaya para pendatang. Budaya ini meliputi berbagai aspek seperti musik, tari, ragam hias dan lain sebagainya. Salah satu ragam hias khas Betawi yaitu ornamen Gigi Balang yang berdasarkan pada Pergub 11 Tahun 2017, ornamen ini dipilih untuk dijadikan identitas infrastruktur Kota Jakarta. Belum adanya kajian mengenai efektivitas penggunaan ornamen Gigi Balang dalam infrastruktur Kota Jakarta. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisa tingkat efektivitas ornamen Gigi Balang yang telah digunakan sebagai identitas infrastruktur Kota Jakarta yang dinilai melalui beberapa aspek yaitu; aspek bentuk, waktu, tempat dan fungsi utilitas. Metode analisa menggunakan Prinsip Totalitas, Waktu dan Nilai oleh W. H. Mayall yang dikembangkan oleh Dr. Ahadiyat Joedawinata dengan teknik pengumpulan data melalui observasi, wawancara, kuesioner, dokumentasi dan studi pustaka. Berdasarkan hasil survei, ornamen ini dinilai kurang efektif. Hal ini dibuktikan dengan hasil kuesioner yang menunjukkan kurangnya pemahaman penduduk Kota Jakarta terhadap ornamen Gigi Balang. Sehingga ornamen ini hanya dianggap sebagai elemen dekoratif tanpa mengetahui asal usul dan makna yang terkandung di dalamnya.

Kata kunci: Gigi Balang, Jakarta, identitas kota, ragam hias etnik.

Constructing a Tower of Babble: An Examination of Purpose in Establishment Clause Jurisprudence
Authors: Rubin Griffin
Published: March 2021

“Purpose” is a key component of modern Establishment Clause jurisprudence. While the Supreme Court has expanded the role purpose plays in various areas of constitutional analysis over the last half-century, the Court seemingly continues to muddy the waters as to purpose’s proper place in Establishment Clause cases. This Comment focuses on the function and operation of purpose in Establishment Clause cases in order to probe the complications and obstacles inherent to this area of constitutional law. By constructing and applying an analytical framework that examines modern Establishment Clause cases through the lenses of “conceptions of purpose,” “evidence of purpose,” and “indicia of impermissible purpose,” this Comment provides critical takeaways about the development and current state of the Establishment Clause—as well as potential future outcomes in these cases. Ultimately, the dispositive consideration in Establishment Clause cases is the utilization and weight given by individual Justices in any given case to the factors discussed in this Comment’s analytical framework. This conclusion demonstrates the judge-dependent nature of these cases and the value certain Justices place on the institutional legitimacy of the Supreme Court and the judicial branch as a whole.
Expansão demográfica e abastecimento de água no sistema integrado de Feira de Santana/BA
Authors: Aguiar Gleice , Teixeira Telma , Souza Frank Pavan de , Santos Karine Veiga dos
Published: March 2021

A água é um recurso indispensável para a vida e necessária para o desenvolvimento humano e funcionamento de atividades econômicas. Em virtude da distância e não potabilidade das fontes, através de sistemas de abastecimento o recurso é captado, tratado e distribuído para consumo final nos municípios. Nesse processo, vazamentos nas infraestruturas resultam em perdas e desperdício de um recurso cada dia mais escasso, cuja demanda é naturalmente pressionada pela expansão demográfica. No Sistema Integrado de Abastecimento de Água de Feira de Santana, localizado no semiárido baiano, apesar da escassez hídrica estrutural da região, verificam-se perdas na distribuição de 49% do volume após tratamento, comprometendo o atendimento e elevando custos do serviço. Considerando a projeção populacional estimada pelos órgãos estaduais de estatística, o trabalho analisa a disponibilidade de água para atendimento aos municípios inseridos no Sistema simulando hipóteses relacionadas a redução de perdas na distribuição em cenários de manutenção e aumento da demanda. Os resultados evidenciam a já presente insuficiência para atendimento à população e a imperiosa necessidade de melhoria nos níveis de eficiência da prestadora responsável, a Embasa.
Potensi antibakteri dari susu fermentasi dengan starter Lactobacillus casei terhadap Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus
Authors: Purnomo Danu , Apridamayanti Pratiwi , Sari Rafika
Published: March 2021

Latar belakang: Susu fermentasi merupakan bahan pangan dari susu yang dibuat dengan fermentasi bakteri asam laktat. Bakteri asam laktat seperti Lactobacillus casei dalam susu fermentasi memiliki manfaat dalam kesehatan terutama mengatasi gangguan saluran pencernaan yang disebabkan oleh bakteri patogen seperti Escherichia coli dan Staphylococcus aureus. Bakteri patogen tersebut dapat dihambat dengan adanya senyawa antibakteri yang dihasilkan dari bakteri asam laktat yaitu bakteriosin yang memiliki efek antibakteri spektrum luas. Bakteriosin oleh Lactobacillus casei diproduksi optimum pada waktu 24 dan 48 jam sehingga perlu dilakukan perbandingan aktivitas antibakteri bakteriosin yang lebih optimal antara waktu fermentasi 24 jam dan 48 jam pada bakteri E. coli dan S. aureus. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan metode difusi cakram dengan menggunakan sampel supernatan bakteriosin yang dibuat dengan teknik sentrifugasi. Hasil: Aktivitas antibakteri bakteriosin pada waktu fermentasi 24 jam memiliki aktivitas yang lebih besar daripada waktu fermentasi 48 jam. Diameter zona bening aktivitas bakteriosin yang dihasilkan terhadap bakteri E. coli dan S. aureus pada waktu fermentasi 24 jam yaitu 8,45 mm dan 9,32 mm sedangkan dengan waktu fermentasi 48 jam yaitu 6,77 mm dan 7,82 mm. Kesimpulan: Aktivitas antibakteri bakteriosin pada susu fermentasi yang dihasilkan oleh Lactobacillus casei lebih optimum pada waktu fermentasi 24 jam terhadap E. coli dan S. aureus.
Can bipartite classical information resources be activated?
Authors: Prettico Giuseppe , Acin Antonio
Published: March 2021

Non-additivity is one of the distinctive traits of Quantum Information Theory: the combined use of quantum objects may be more advantageous than the sum of their individual uses. Non-additivity effects have been proven, for example, for quantum channel capacities, entanglement distillation or state estimation. In this work, we consider whether non-additivity effects can be found in Classical Information Theory. We work in the secret-key agreement scenario in which two honest parties, having access to correlated classical data that are also correlated to an eavesdropper, aim at distilling a secret key. Exploiting the analogies between the entanglement and the secret-key agreement scenario, we provide some evidence that the secret-key rate may be a non-additive quantity. In particular, we show that correlations with conjectured bound information become secret-key distillable when combined. Our results constitute a new instance of the subtle relation between the entanglement and secret-key agreement scenario.
Efficient quantum communication under collective noise
Authors: Skotiniotis Michael , Dur Wolfgang , Kraus Barbara
Published: March 2021

We introduce a new quantum communication protocol for the transmission of quantum information under collective noise. Our protocol utilizes a decoherence-free subspace in such a way that an optimal asymptotic transmission rate is achieved, while at the same time encoding and decoding operations can be efficiently implemented. The encoding and decoding circuit requires a number of elementary gates that scale linearly with the number of transmitted qudits, $m$. The logical depth of our encoding and decoding operations is constant and depends only on the channel in question. For channels described by an arbitrary discrete group $G$, i.e.~with a discrete number, $\lvert G\rvert$, of possible noise operators, perfect transmission at a rate $m/(m+r)$ is achieved with an overhead that scales at most as $\mathcal{O}(d^r)$ where the number of auxiliary qudits, $r$, depends solely on the group in question. Moreover, this overhead is independent of the number of transmitted qudits, $m$. For certain groups, e.g.~cyclic groups, we find that the overhead scales only linearly with the number of group elements $|G|$.

Authors: Machida Takuya
Published: March 2021

Since a limit distribution of a discrete-time quantum walk on the line was derived in 2002, a lot of limit theorems for quantum walks with a localized initial state have been reported. On the other hand, in quantum probability theory, there are four notions of independence (free, monotone, commuting, and boolean independence) and quantum central limit theorems associated to each independence have been investigated. The relation between quantum walks and quantum probability theory is still unknown. As random walks are fundamental models in the Kolmogorov probability theory, can the quantum walks play an important role in quantum probability theory? To discuss this problem, we focus on a discrete-time 2-state quantum walk with a non-localized initial state and present a limit theorem. By using our limit theorem, we generate probability laws in the quantum central limit theorems from the quantum walk.
Quantum fingerprints that keep secrets
Authors: Gavinsky Dmitry , Ito Tsuyoshi
Published: March 2021

We introduce a new type of cryptographic primitive that we call a \e{hiding fingerprinting scheme}. A (quantum) fingerprinting scheme maps a binary string of length $n$ to $d$ (qu)bits, typically $d\ll n$, such that given any string $y$ and a fingerprint of $x$, one can decide with high accuracy whether $x=y$. It can be seen that a classical fingerprint of $x$ that guarantees error $\le\eps$ necessarily reveals \asOm{\Min{n,\log(1/\eps)}} bits of information about $x$. We call a scheme \e{hiding} if it reveals \aso{\Min{n,\log(1/\eps)}} bits; accordingly, no classical scheme is hiding. }{We construct quantum hiding fingerprinting schemes. Our schemes are computationally efficient and their hiding properties are shown to be optimal.

We propose a protocol of quantum privacy comparison with polarization-entangled Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (Bell) states and the coherent states. One of two legitimate participants, Alice, prepares polarization-entangled Bell states and keeps one photon of each photon pair and sends the other photons to the third party, Charlie. Receiving the photons, Charlie performs single-photon transformation operations on them and then sends them to the other legitimate participant, Bob. Three participants adopt parity analysis method to check the distribution security of Bell states. Exploiting polarization beam splitters and nonlinear interactions mediated by the probe coherent states in Kerr media, Alice and Bob check the parities of their photons using the bases of $\{\ket H, \ket V\}$ or $\{\ket +, \ket -\}$. On the basis of the parity analysis outcomes and Charlie's publicized information, they can analyze the security of the distributed quantum channel. Confirming secure distribution of the shared Bell states, two participants perform respective parity measurements on the privacy photons and own photons of Bell states, and then send the results to Charlie. According to information provided by two legitimate participants and his single-qubit transformation operations, Charlie compares the privacy information of Alice and Bob and publicizes the conclusion.
Steady-state entanglement by engineered quasi-local Markovian dissipation
Authors: Ticozzi Francesco , Viola Lorenza
Published: March 2021

We characterize time-independent Markovian dynamics that drive a finite-dimensional multipartite quantum system into a target (pure) entangled steady state, subject to physical locality constraints. New control schemes are introduced in situations where the desired stabilization task {\em cannot} be attained solely based on quasi-local dissipative means, as considered in previous analysis. The new schemes either allow for Hamiltonian control or, if the latter is not an option, suitably restrict the set of admissible initial states. In both cases, we provide explicit algorithms for constructing a Markovian master equation that achieves the intended objective and show how this genuinely extends the manifold of stabilizable states. In particular, we present dissipative quasi-local control protocols for deterministically engineering multipartite GHZ ``cat'' states and W states on $n$ qubits. For GHZ states, we show that no scalable procedure exists for achieving stabilization from arbitrary initial states, whereas this is possible for a target W state by a suitable combination of a two-body Hamiltonian and dissipators. Interestingly, for both entanglement classes, we show that quasi-local stabilization may be {\em scalably} achieved conditional to initialization of the system in a large, appropriately chosen subspace.

The liver is the second-largest organ in the human body, which has the ability to regenerate after an injury or any inflammation. The liver diseases can be classified as an acute or chronic and infectious or non-infectious origin. Almost all the liver diseases produce oral manifestations like petechiae, Excessive bleeding in the cause of any minor trauma, inflammation. Oral Manifestation like gingival bleeding, glossitis, sialadenitis, hyposalivation are most commonly associated and perioral rashes, more prone to dental caries, Candidiasis are associated rarely with liver cirrhosis. Dry mouth, Sjogren syndrome both are commonly associated with all liver disease, hyposalivation leads to changes in the oral mucosa like alteration in taste, burning sensation in the tongue, bad breath etc., There are changes seen in oral mucosa, Candidiasis, fissured tongue, aphthous ulcers, bald tongue and halitosis due to compounds like Aliphatic acid, hydrogen sulfide, produced as a result of liver damage and they have a characteristic mousy odour. The common oral manifestations that are associated with Hepatocellular carcinoma include increased incidence of dental caries, loss of the tooth, Gingival bleeding, increased bone loss, chronic periodontitis, oral thrush, Candidiasis and oral lichen planus. Liver diseases have many implications in a dental setting and should carefully take a brief medical history. This study will provide better knowledge in understanding the association between liver disease and oral hygiene, Effective treatment planning in a dental setting also for liver diseased patients. Dental practitioners should know the oral manifestations commonly associated with liver diseases so that treatment can be accordingly made. With this background, the present study aims to review the impact of liver disease on oral health and its management in a dental setting.

Antifungal compounds are produced by Bacillus species under various growth conditions. While optimizing the antifungal production by using the one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) and response surface methodology (RSM) approaches mannose and malt extract were identified as the most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources respectively. The RSM was applied to determine the optimum conditions of the three parameters such as pH, carbon and nitrogen sources for improved production. Optimum concentrations of carbon and nitrogen sources were 0.3% and 0.6% respectively with optimum media pH of 7.0 which showed optimum value of 40 AU/ml of antifungal compound against the Candida albicans SC5314 used as an indicator strain. In the present study, the F-value was determined as 0.0034 to imply that the model is significant. The goodness of the fit of the model was tested using coefficient of determination, R2  value, that tantamounts to 0.8562. The identification of antifungal compounds with their molecular masses was accomplished by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry after n- butanol extraction. The present study thus has provided a platform to upgrade the yield of antifungal compounds which have got immense clinical potential to tread Candidosis.
