Authors: Sánchez-Barbosa Leadina , Villagran-Sánchez Paul Steven , Armenise-Gil Sabino Alexander
Published: April 2020

Introduction. Estrone (E1) is a type of natural hormone estrogen which is produced mainly by the ovaries, adipose tissue, fibroblasts skin, placenta, and brain. E1 is part of the so called endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC), a type of organic contaminants present at trace levels in the water that can interfere with the normal function of the endocrine systems in humans and wildlife. Objective. To describe the experimental conditions that have given the best results in the degradation or photocatalytic removal of estrone referenced in the scientific literature using photocatalysis. Materials and methods used a systematic review, directed by search criteria, inclusion and exclusion, to extract information concerning the experimental conditions. Results. The results show that a) a higher removal rate is achieved with a higher load of the catalyst or with a modified catalyst; b) the use of radiation at 254 nm is convenient in matrices containing mixtures of compounds; c) the ideal pH will be lower than the isoelectric point or the zero charge point of the catalyst; d) the removal rate is faster in ultra-pure water than in synthetic or real wastewater. The study was limited to the identification of investigations in which the degradation was performed using TiO2 as a catalyst and the articles fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Conclusions. The main contribution of this research is the identification of the best conditions for the degradation of the pollutant in different conditions and matrices, which is the basis for the work of the research group. The removal of estrone is greater when the catalyst load is increased or by the use of a modified one; or when the pH is lower than the isoelectric point or the zero charge point of the catalyst; higher in ultra-pure water than in wastewater.
Synthesis and properties of porous bricks obtained with the use of spherical expanded polystyrene particles of packaging material
Authors: Bernal Edgar , Vlasova Marina , Márquez Aguilar , Kakazey Mykola , Tapia Rene
Published: April 2020

In the present work, the prospects of using wastes of a packaging material
consisting of spherical expanded polystyrene (EPS) particles for the
manufacture of porous ceramics/bricks are considered. Ceramics were obtained
from mixtures of red clay-grinded cullet - EPS particles. To reduce the
release of toxic products of thermal destruction of EPS, two sintering modes
have been developed. During sintering in the atmosphere, the two-stage
temperature regime was carried out, which ensured preliminary dehydration of
the clay and a quick transition to sintering at 1000?C. During sintering in
conditions of oxygen deficiency in firing furnaces, the temperature
gradually rises to 1000?C. At that, the sintering process is characterized
by the absence of release of toxic products, and the carbonization of porous
bricks. It has been established that, depending on the composition of the
mixtures and the sintering conditions, it is possible to obtain durable wall
ceramics with good thermal and sound insulation properties. Carbonized
ceramics have enhanced strength properties due to the formation of
forsterite. The presence of free carbon in the pores imparts adsorbing
properties to carbonized ceramics and contributes to the appearance of
electrical conductivity.

Published: April 2020

The molecular genetic landscape of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have specific features in elderly patients, and these features correlates with hematopoietic progenitor cells senescence. Aim: to estimate the frequency of mutations in DNMT3A, FLT3, KIT, NPM1, NRAS, TP53 and WT1 genes in AML patients in elderly. Bone marrow and peripheral blood samples obtained from 54 AML patients aged over 60 years old. Distribution of the patients according to FAB-classification was as follows: AML M0 - 2, M1 - 6, M2 - 27, М3 - 2, M4 - 11, M5 - 1, M6 - 3, acute myelofibrosis - 1, blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm - 1. Detection of mutations in DNMT3A, FLT3, KIT, NPM1, NRAS, TP53 and WT1 genes performed by automatic direct sequencing technique. In the study group were more common patients with unfavorable (33.3%, n=18) and unspecified (42.6%, n=23) cytogenetics. The average frequency of functionally significant mutations in all investigated genes among the treated AML patients was 38.9% (n=21), including 3 cases (27.3%) with normal karyotype, 11 cases (61.1%) with unfavorable cytogenetics, 7 cases (30.4%) with unspecified karyotype. Average frequency of mutations in TP53 gene exons 4-11 was 20.0%, FLT3 gene exons 12-15 and 19-21 18.4%, DNMT3A exons 18-26 - 9.1%, NRAS gene exons 1-4 - 7.7%, KIT gene exons 7-12 and 16-19 - 5.9%, NPM1 gene exons 9-12 - 5.4% (n=2), DNMT3A - 9.1% (n=1). Multiple point mutations in investigated genes were detected in 11.1% AML specimens (n=6, usually FLT3 gene mutations, including FLT3 ITD in 4 cases). Additional gene mutations detection using direct sequencing allowed to clarify the prognostic stratification of AML from groups of unspecified and intermediate prognosis in 35.9% (n=10). In all cases, they were associated with an unfavorable prognosis. Thus, using of cytogenetic and additional molecular genetic research, a favorable prognosis of overall survival was established in 2 cases (3.7%), intermediate - in 9 cases (16.7%), unfavorable - in 27 cases (50.0%), and unspecified - in 16 (29.6%).

Gene-activated materials are getting translated to the clinical practice that is the result of increased research activity in this area. There is significant success in development of gene-activated materials for bone grafting procedures. In our study, we made the gene-activated bone substitute based on octacalcium phosphate and plasmid DNA with VEGFA gene using three-dimensional printing technologies (discs, size of 10x2 mm). During the subcutaneous test in rats, the dynamics of bioresorption of materials was evaluated in comparison with the control that was presented by the scaffold without gene constructs. 60-90 days after surgery, volumes of the implants twicely decreased while the diameter declined by 20% at 180 days, and there were no significant differences between the groups related to these parameters. According to a histological examination, no signs of pronounced inflammation were found in the operation zone, the materials were surrounded by a connective tissue capsule. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effect of gene-activated materials produced with the developed technology on reparative osteogenesis.

Published: April 2020

In the European Union and the United States, regulation of cell-based products for the placing on the market is rather extensive and multi-tiered. This is due to the complexities which emerge at the different steps of the process, e. g. when obtaining source materials (live human cells), further development, manufacturing and clinical investigation, as well as due to risks posed by cellular products for the patient and other people. In this paper we address foreign regulatory systems for products containing live cells as an active ingredient in order to establish the difference with the domestic system.

Authors: Lazarev Maksim , Stukalova Olga
Published: April 2020

Рассмотрены проблемы кризиса гуманитарного знания в высшем образовании. Этот кризис сопровождается усилением прагматических мотивов профессионального выбора, когда получение образования сводится к достижению материального благополучия или карьерному росту. Тревожной тенденцией является дегуманизация образования. В то же время перспективы развития высшего образования неотделимы от представлений о приоритетности гуманитарного знания в силу его фундаментальности. Авторами доказывается положение о том, что в высшее образование включены процессы создания культурных и духовно-нравственные ценностей. В исследовании выделено и обобщено несколько признаков, которым соответствуют современные методики преподавания в вузах; также выделены принципы, необходимые при отборе и структурировании содержания гуманитарного образования (принцип историзма и др.). Представлены показатели результативности освоения гуманитарного знания. Сделан вывод о том, что освоение гуманитарного знания предоставляет широкие возможности для всестороннего и продуктивного общения с окружающим миром и созидательной практической работы.

The article considers the problems of the crisis of humanitarian knowledge in higher education. This crisis is accompanied by an increase in the pragmatic motives of professional choice, when obtaining education is reduced to achieving material well-being or career growth. An alarming trend is the dehumanization of education. At the same time, the prospects for higher education development are inseparable from the notions of the priority of humanitarian knowledge due to its fundamental nature. The authors prove the position that the content of education should include everything that leads to the understanding of higher education as a process of creating cultural values, including spiritual, moral, aesthetic, material values. The study highlighted a number of features that modern teaching methods of the humanities should answer in universities. These signs are summarized in the article. The study also highlighted the principles necessary for the selection and structuring of the content of humanitarian education (the principle of historicism, etc.). Performance indicators for the development of humanitarian knowledge are also presented. It is concluded that the development of humanitarian knowledge provides ample opportunities for comprehensive and productive communication with the outside world and creative practical work.
ПСИХОЛОГИЧЕСКИЕ КОМПОНЕНТЫ ИННОВАЦИОННОГО ПОВЕДЕНИЯ КАК НЕОБХОДИМЫЕ СОСТАВЛЯЮЩИЕ В ПРОФЕССИОНАЛЬНОЙ ПОДГОТОВКЕ СТУДЕНТОВ

Необходимость модернизации общества актуализирует вопросы инновационного поведения личности, развития ее инновационного потенциала. Исследование инновационного поведения человека основывается на деятельностном подходе в психологии. В настоящее время перспективной моделью при подготовке специалистов является модель профессионального саморазвития, где акцент сделан на внутренней активности человека, потребности в самореализации. Необходимым условием для развития инновационного потенциала студентов вузов является образовательная среда, рассматриваемая как социальное пространство, посредством которого человек включается в культурные связи общества. Образовательная среда должна создавать единый и целостный процесс инновационной подготовки специалистов.

The modernization of society raises issues of training personnel with developed innovative potential. In this situation, the issues of studying the specifics of the innovative behavior of the individual, the development of the innovative potential of students in the context of professional education are relevant. The study of innovative potential and innovative human behavior is based on an activity-based approach in psychology. Innovative activity creates favorable conditions for the development of personality, the effective use of internal potential. In innovative behavior, a person realizes his “actual potentiality”, the ability to transcendence, and personal growth becomes an actual state. For the development of the innovative potential of the individual, it is fundamentally important to develop the worldview of the individual, tolerance to uncertainty, and the need for self-realization. The problem of initiating innovative behavior is of great interest today. For modern pedagogy and psychology, the task of forming and developing a personality focused on innovative behavior is currently becoming urgent. Although the concepts of “formation” and “development” are close, the development process is still more significant in this issue, since it involves subjectivity, human activity. Currently, a promising model in the preparation of a modern specialist is a model of professional selfdevelopment, where the emphasis is on the internal activity of a person, the need for selfrealization. A necessary condition for the development of innovative potential is the educational environment, where a person is included in the cultural ties of society. The educational environment should contribute to the formation of an innovative culture of students, create a single and holistic process of innovative training of specialists.

Анализируется опыт Томского государственного педагогического университета по проведению экскурсий на религиоведческую тематику. Обосновывается необходимость экскурсий в культовые сооржения различных конфессий в рамках религиоведческих дисциплин, представляется опыт презентации религий через подобные мероприятия. Рассматриваются специфика аудитории экскурсии, особенности реакции на религиозную культуру, характер полученных знаний, их влияние на формирование профессионального педагога. На основе опыта проведения экскурсий анализируются изменения в восприятии религиозной культуры, которые происходят у слушателей.

The article analyzes the experience of Tomsk State Pedagogical University in conducting excursions about religious culture. The necessity of excursions to denominations within religious disciplines is substantiated, the experience of presenting religions through excursions to confessions is presented. The article presents the experience of presentation of religions through excursions to confessions, obtained during the visiting Museum practice and during the classroom work of students of Tomsk State Pedagogical University (specialties “Cultural Studies”, “History”, bachelor’s and master’s degree “Pedagogical education”). The article deals with the specifics of the students of the excursion, the peculiarities of the reaction to religious culture, the nature of the knowledge gained, their influence on the formation of a professional teacher. On the basis of the experience of conducting excursions, the changes in the perception of religious culture that occur in the listeners are analyzed. It is stated that after excursions religious culture does not cause rejection, interest is shown in religion as an element of the spiritual sphere of society. Of particular importance is the tour for undergraduates who are teachers. In the course of visiting excursions, undergraduates acquire new knowledge that allows them to better understand the processes of ethnoconfessional interaction in the city of Tomsk, and learn to organize such excursions, which is especially important for practicing teachers. The ideological influence of religious excursions does not lead to the integration of the student into the denomination. Such integration is impossible without becoming involved in religious practice. This means that the excursion, giving knowledge about religion, keeps intact the personal space of a student and does not impose alien values.

Authors: ÖZDEN KELEŞ Seray
Published: April 2020

The effect of needle removal treatments on the morphology, anatomy and wood density was less studied in the literature. Therefore, the aim this study was to investigate the effect of needle removal on the morphological, anatomical and wood density properties of the seedlings of Pinus nigra Arn. (Anatolian black pine). The needles of the seedlings were removed in four different amounts (0%, 25%, 50% and 75%) to determine whether there is a relationship between the properties of seedlings and the needle removal treatments. The morphological (stem diameter, node numbers, pith percentage, bark percentage, xylem percentage), anatomical properties (average annual ring width, tracheid number per mm2, tracheid height/width, tracheid lumen width, tracheid wall thickness, ray number per mm2, ray height/width) and wood densities were individually determined for each treatment. The morphological results showed that stem diameter was greatest in 0% and 25% needle removal treatments than that of two treatments. Bark% was also found to be higher in the 0% needle removal treatments than others. However, node numbers, pith% and xylem% did not differ significantly between four removal treatments. The density results showed that the seedlings of 0% and 25% needle treatments were denser than 50% and 75% needle removal treatments. The results of anatomical analysis also found surprising results between four treatments. Ray height/width, tracheid number per mm2and tracheid length were significantly greater in the 0% removal of needles than that of three treatments. 25% needle removal treatment also showed larger tracheid area and tracheid wall thickness than that of three needle removal treatments.

Published: April 2020

Electronic banking (e-banking) is a growing phenomenon in the world of the seamless, dynamic business environment. E-banking allows customers to conduct financial banking transactions through the interface of electronic devices. Thus, the purpose of this research is to investigate customer susceptibility to e-banking among retail banking clients of The Gambia. A quantitative, survey approach was adopted. A total of 144 respondents participated in the study. Results of the empirical, multiple linear regression confirm that all predictor variables (independent variables) such as perceived risk, security, and privacy concerns have a significant impact on a model outcome (perceived trust). It can be deduced from the findings, that despite the growing adoption of e-banking practices in our economies, we are seeing significant customer susceptibility to e-banking. For example, highly internet proliferated economies have a greater desire for increase e-banking, while the reverse perhaps the case for clients in the third world economies, particularly in The Gambia.

Authors: Ojera Patrick , Odoyo Collins Otieno
Published: April 2020

Corporate sustainability reporting, also known as Triple-bottom-line reporting, involves reporting nonfinancial and financial information to a broader set of stakeholders than just shareholders and seek to fortify an organization’s ability to manage key risks. The current case is that, the quality, rigor, and utility of sustainability reporting remains contentious with concerns about the suitability of the criteria or standards used to prepare the reports. Despite the rapid increase in the number of companies around the world adopting Global Reporting Initiative standards, little is known about the extent of practice of corporate sustainability reporting in public universities in Kenya. The study selected five universities that had their 2017-18 audited financial reports available online for the readers, which served as the main source of secondary data. The guidelines on corporate sustainability reporting was derived from literature review, which provided key indicators upon which the data from each university was evaluated. It was observed that almost all the institutions recognize the critical role of both internal and external independent audit of financial statements. In conclusion, financial reporting sustainability is guided by strict compliance to the factors of sustainability.

Development of the Instrumentation Unit of a Motorized Precision Planter
Authors: Soyoye Babatunde Oluwamayokun
Published: April 2020

The performance of precision planters is very important for attaining uniform seed spacing. Seed metering units of planters receive their motion from the driving wheel through various transmission members such as the chains, gears, shafts and belts. The slippery situation that do occur at the driving wheel adversely affects the performance of the metering unit. The research aimed at developing a planter whose metering wheel is totally eliminated and the entire operation could be well monitored. The DC motor incorporated to drive the metering shaft was powered by the pulses generated through the ON and OFF situations of the transistor. The planter was evaluated to determine its optimum operational conditions. The results showed that the forward speed of the planter is proportional to the rotational speed of the metering shaft. The optimum speed of the metering shaft is 45 rpm at the forward speed of 1.3 m/s.

Published: April 2020

A total of (120) day old Bounty Fresh colored broiler chickens were carried out in a completely randomized design to evaluate the effect of different levels of oregano leaf meal (OLM) on the growth performance at a dietary levels of 0, 3 ,6 and 9% respectively.   Results showed significant in terms of cumulative feed consumption, gain weight and feed conversion ratio. Broilers given 6% of level of oregano (T3) had the heaviest body weight on the seven week of age with a mean 1955.25 grams while the lightest was those broilers without the supplementation of oregano leaf meal (T1) with a mean of 1743.75 grams. The inclusion of OLM as fed diet were the most efficient feed converter and therefore, has the potential to increase rapid growth and improve vitality and livability of colored broiler chicken. Insignificant result was obtained in terms of the percentage rate of growth, dressing percentage with and without giblets and feed conversion ratio as revealed by the analysis of variance. However, in terms of the income over feed and chick costs, Colored broiler chicken fed with 6% oregano leaf meal had the highest return of Php 88.89 and the lowest return was those broilers without oregano with a return of Php 50.47.The results suggest that OLM at 6% level can be safely used as feed ingredients to the broilers without any deleterious effect.
Predicting Seasonal Rainfall Patterns and Trends in Juba County, South Sudan Using Artificial Neural Networks
Authors: Lomeling David
Published: April 2020

A simple Feed Forward Neural Network (FFNN) model with a learning back-propagation algorithm was applied to forecast rainfall data from 1997-2016 of Juba County, South Sudan. Annual rainfall data were aggregated into three seasons MAMJ, JAS and OND and later trained for best predictions for the period 2017-2034 using the Alyuda Forecaster XL software. Best training was attained once the minimum error or cost function of the weight  was attained during gradient descent and expressed as Mean Square Error (MSE) and AE of the input variable.  The results showed that for MAMJ and JAS months, the number good forecasts were over 97% whereas this was between 60-80% for OND months. The Seasonal Kendal (SK) test on future rainfall forecasts as well as the Theil-Sen slope showed a declining monotonic trend in the mean amounts in all three seasons with MAMJ, JAS at OND at 100, 150 and 80 mm respectively towards the end of 2034.  Declining onset of MAMJ rains is expected to significantly affect the timing for land preparation and crop planting. The forecast accuracy of the FFNN can be used as a vital tool for decision makers in projecting future rainfall events.
APPLICATION OF CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES IN JUDICIAL ENFORCEMENT
Authors: Shupitskaya Oksana N.
Published: April 2020

The subject. Constitutional principles as phenomenon that attracts increasing attention of researchers in the development of post-soviet national legal systems. The purpose of the paper. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between constitutional principles and law enforcement. The methodology of the study. The author of the study used general scientific methods of cognition: analysis, synthesis, abstraction, as well as applied practical methods such as statistical and case-method. The research is also based on the regulatory legal acts and judicial practice, as well as on the opinions of representatives of legal science in the ana-lyzing sphere. The main results and scope of their application. There are several reasons for scientific attention to constitutional principles. On the one hand this is connected with the increas-ing interest in natural law, forms of its manifestation, in the crisis conditions of the de-velopment of modern States and societies. On the other hand, on the territory of the post-Soviet states, the sphere of law enforcement is at the stage of its reform, as are the na-tional legal systems themselves. In this regard, the search for effective methods of im-proving legal institutions and law enforcement relations becomes urgent. This method, according to the author, could be natural law in such a form of its manifestation as con-stitutional and legal principle. Constitutional principles as fundamental principles (ideas, requirements) fixed in the norms of law or followed from them. They reflect the essence of law and determine the content and procedure for the implementation of legal regulations in socially significant situations, determine the law enforcement sphere of the state. Judicial law enforcement is a complex process. As a result of their functioning a legal prescription as a model of behavior through the activities of a special subject - the court is embodied in real social relations. Conclusions. The constitutional principles at various levels, from ideas to specific regula-tions, relating to state and society in general and specific to their individual institutions, serve as the basis of law enforcement. They determine judicial activities, the subjects of law enforcement, procedure, jurisdiction, establish its boundaries and a measure of its quality.
ROMAN LAW AND MODERN NATIONAL SYSTEMS OF CIVIL PROCEEDINGS: METAMORPHOSES OF HARMONIZATION OF THE CIVIL PROCESS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF EUROPEAN AND EURASIAN INTEGRATION
Authors: Sukhova Nadezhda V.
Published: April 2020

The subject. This article is devoted to the discussion of transformation of civil justice within the framework of European and Eurasian integration in the context of globalization. Globalization has been often mistakenly treated as a sociocultural process of establishing unity of humanity. But in the author’s opinion globalization is an information – economic megatrend. We can find a precise characterization of modern globalization process in definition “glocalization” by British sociologist R. Robertson which is understood as connection between global and local processes. The article means “glocalization” as globalization of economic and localization of cultures. The author also tries to synthesize some trends in the development and convergence of civil procedural law in Europe and in post-Soviet space making attempts to find some unity in the diversity of transformations. Methodological bases of research are General scientific methods (dialectics, analysis, synthesis, comparison); private and scientific methods (interpretation, formal-logical, comparative-legal, based on the actual approach). The aims of the article are: to analyze the reasons and factors that influence the convergence of the civil process in the framework of European and Eurasian integration; to identify gaps in legal regulation, difficulties encountered in the activities of courts in the imple-mentation of justice; to identify trends in the further development of the civil process within the framework of European and Eurasian integration. The main scientific results. The basis of social integration and mutual understanding has its roots at least in the countries of continental Europe in common source, in the Roman-canonical models that formed the “procedural order of communication” for many Euro-pean countries before the codification period. The civil procedure systems of modern states are facing unprecedented challenges today. In accordance with contemporary and historical comparative analysis fundamental re-forms are condition for surviving of civil courts as protectors of human rights lied in the base of modern jurisdictions. Moreover, the reforms indicate common tendency of na-tions to communication on the base of unity in diversity of changes. The landscape of civil justice in Europe and Eurasia shows unity and diversity of processes in legal sphere. Conclusions. The reasons and factors that influence the convergence of the civil process in the framework of European and Eurasian integration were identified. The main trend of development is to solve the unprecedented problems that the civil procedural systems of modern states face today.

Unrecognized States of the Post-Soviet Space: Problems and Prospects
Authors: Bakhturidze Z. Z. , Vasilyeva N. A.
Published: April 2020

The world order of the 21st century is characterized by transformational processes changing the spatial-temporal coordinates of international life. The features of the present stage are ambivalent processes (integration and disintegration; globalization and deglobalization).

The article analyzes the transformation processes in post-Soviet space. The relevance of the study is caused by the presence of several frozen conflicts in the post-Soviet space that have changed the configuration of the region and have been enhancing its conflict potential since they are far from settling and constructive resolution. The conflict potential of the post-Soviet space is increased because of the presence of new state formations: the unrecognized de facto states thePridnestrovianMoldavianRepublicand theNagorno-KarabakhRepublic, and partially recognized Abkhazia andSouth Ossetia.

The article also deals with the statehood acquisition and the formation of a new status of Abkhazia, South Ossetia, theNagorno-KarabakhRepublicand Transnistria. It emphasizes the necessity to solve the problem of obtaining external legitimization of the sovereignty of these political-territorial entities not only within the legal framework, but also within the political and social sphere.

The actualization of frozen conflicts is only a matter of time, and in the context of the deterioration of relations between global players pursuing their own interests in the region, it can be used as an argument for aggravating the international situation.

The principal approach to the study of this problem is the combination of comparative historical, institutional and situational methods that allow us to comprehensively consider the forms of international legitimization of small states in contemporary international relations and analyze conflict situations.

The article presents various theoretical concepts on the problem of unrecognized states; the possibilities of further development of these partially recognized states are discussed. The difficulties of political integration and the difficulties of resolving frozen conflicts, in particular, due to the lack of a full-fledged dialogue between all parties to the conflict, are highlighted.

The article is valuable as an analytical material for practical use by agencies and organizations involved in the development of political content in theSouth Caucasusregion.

The authors conclude that in the issue of the existence of unrecognized States of the post-Soviet space, the time factor is essential because in these territories new generations of people are born who perceive themselves as full-fledged citizens of sovereign States.
