Cellulose demonstrates unique properties and suitable for many different applications. In the present study an acetic acid bacterial strain has been isolated from rotten apple and investigated as cellulose producer. The strain was identified using morphological, biochemical characterization and 16s rRNA gene sequencing and named as Komagataeibacter hansenii (K. hansenii AS.5) under identity percentage 99%. Culture conditions for BC production by AS.5 were screened and compared with reference one Gluconacetobacter hansenii ATCC 23769 under static condition. Optimization of key production parameters has been carried out using OVAT (One Variable At Time) approach. Effect of media composition, inoculum size, pH, temperature, incubation time, different carbon and nitrogen sources were evaluated. The highest production of cellulose (3.75 g/l) was obtained after 10 days, 8% inoculum size, incubation 25◦C by K. hansenii AS.5 using Yamanaka medium with glucose and yeast extract as a sole carbon and nitrogen source, respectively. On contrast, G. hansenii ATCC 23769 exhibits the maximal BC production (2.18 g/l) under the modified GEM medium composed of mannitol and yeast extract as the optimum carbon and nitrogen source after 7 days at 25 ◦C and inoculum size 6%. It is clearly noticed the Cellulose production by the local isolate is higher than the reference one by 1.7- fold.
New Polish Queer Literature and its Anglosphere Reception
Authors: Sobolczyk Piotr
Published: September 2022

This article offers a theoretical perspective on the reception of new Polish queer literature in the Anglosphere as opposed to an “insider’s view”. The reception of queer literature is measured against the stereotype of Polish literature called “Pol- ish school of poetry”. This stereotype when applied to queer literature interacts with the idea of Poland’s “belatedness” in LGBTQ emancipation which is normatively understood as a carbon-copy of Western models, and not as a unique path. Therefore, the Anglosphere reading strategies often rely on “exoticisa-

tion” and a certain “postcolonial gaze”. The case studies are two novels, Michał Witkowski’s Lovetown and a limitrophe case, a novel about Poland written in English by Tomasz Jędrowski, Swimming in the Dark. While in the former the political content is almost overlooked, in the latter the description of queer lives under communism seems brought to the forefront. I argue, however, that this vision in Swimming in the Dark does not surpass stereotypes and also is full of historical inaccuracies.

A Hérnia Inguinal (HI) decorre de uma falha na parede abdominal e subdivide-se em direta e indireta. Quanto à etiologia, a causa envolvida na gênese da doença é a fraqueza do tecido conjuntivo da parede abdominal, sobretudo na conformação do colágeno. Ainda, fatores de risco, como história familiar de hérnia na virilha, sexo masculino, aumento da pressão intra-abdominal, tabagismo, diástase peritoneal e história de apendicectomia, predispõe o curso da HI. Sua identificação depende de uma anamnese minuciosa, um exame físico bem detalhado e exames complementares. No que tange ao diagnóstico clínico, a manobra de Valsalva é o principal exame semiológico para detecção da patologia. Para auxílio diagnóstico, lança-se mão da ultrassonografia, ressonância nuclear magnética e tomografia computadorizada, fornecendo mais detalhes com melhor acurácia para, juntamente com os dados clínicos, obter um melhor diagnóstico. Já a abordagem terapêutica, apresenta-se através do manejo cirúrgico, dividindo-se em técnica de Shouldice, baseada no reforço da parede através de quatro camadas de fáscia e aponeurose, e técnica de Lichtenstein, que utiliza telas de polipropileno no reforço da parede. A abordagem por técnica videolaparoscópica, pode ser realizada por via pré-peritoneal transabdominal ou via totalmente extraperitoneal. Outrossim, a hérnia encarcerada pode ser abordada pela redução manual através da manobra de Taxis, quando não apresenta sinais de sofrimento visceral devido ao estrangulamento. Por fim, quanto às complicações, destacam-se: recidiva da hérnia, dor inguinal crônica, ejaculação dolorosa, infecção da ferida operatória, incontinência urinária, sangramento e lesão do cordão espermático.

Authors: Yvette Djoha Seukou , Mohammadou Nourou , Yves Etogo Nyaga
Published: September 2022

The aim of this paper is to analyze the effect of the availability of electrical energy on the productivity of industrials companies in Cameroon. To achieve this, we used firm-level cross-sectional data from the World Bank Enterprise Survey (WBES) for the year 2016, and a two-step econometric approach; The first step estimates total factor productivity through the Cobb-Douglas production function and the second step uses the (IV-2SLS) estimation method to correct both sample selection and endogeneity issues. The results show that poor availability of electrical power does not affect the productivity of Cameroonian industrial companies, because of the continuity of the production during the interruptions of the electric energy, made possible through the use of generators by the company managers. In addition, firm size, access to credit and innovation are factors that improve the productivity of Cameroonian industrial companies. The results suggest that self-generation of electric power is a short-term solution to poor power availability. Therefore, improving domestic electricity generation would be important for improving industrial productivity growth of firms.

Published: September 2022

This study looks into the current, and potential uses of Blockchain technology in business, specifically in security system of enterprise. The goal of this study is to use modern blockchain technology to address the problem of enhancing the degree of cybersecurity in huge corporations. Enterprises that have seen examples of cyber fraud perpetrated not only by hackers but also by business personnel have evaluated the urgency of the matter. The authors have developed a blockchain-based system dynamic model of the company's cybersecurity system. The use of this modeling tool enables the creation of a computer model of a complicated cybersecurity system, which can then be used to design the suggested update more effectively. We show how Blockchain affects auditing in a variety of ways that will fundamentally alter the profession. We also believe that blockchain technology should be integrated into other parts of cybersecurity, including auditing and general accounting operations. The findings have allowed researchers to draw conclusions about the increased system response in cases of employee fraud in the context of a company's automated information system that uses blockchain technology.

Published: September 2022

Banking sector holds a strategic position that demands excellent risk management. Improper risk management can lead to systemic failures which can affect the financial stability of a nation. Information asymmetry problems between managers and other parties can trigger moral hazard problems. This study examined how corporate social responsibility (CSR) and institutional quality affect bank risk taking and to determine the role of financial constraints in weakening the relationship between CSR and bank risk taking. This quantitative study involved banks listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange from 2013-2020. Dynamic panel data regression analysis using system generalized method of moments (System GMM) approach was employed in data analysis. The results indicated that CSR and institutional quality had a significant negative influence on bank risk taking. Furthermore, as a moderating variable, financial constraint weakened the relationship between CSR and bank risk taking. The findings of this study added an empirical evidence in the field of financial management on the relationship between CSR, financial constraints, institutional quality and bank risk taking. Bank managers should employ CSR strategies to reduce bank risk taking. In addition, both the government and regulators can improve institutional quality to reduce bank risk taking.

Published: September 2022

This study aims to diagnose the constraints in the value chain of the mango sector in the regions of Poro and Tchologo in order to adapt the scientific research action to the real problems of the sector. A survey covered the production, processing, export and marketing sectors. The data was recorded from 344 actors. The results revealed that Kent (100.0%), Keitt (23.0%) and Amélie (28.0%) mango varieties were the most exported and generally known on the market. Also, mango prices vary in the market and the shelf life of dried mangoes differs in several processing plants. However, the losses recorded at the level of producers (64.1%), processors (76.0%), exporters (52.0%) and traders (77.0%) are enormous. They are mainly due to microbial diseases such as anthracnose, bacteriosis and fly and cochineal bites, technical breakdowns in machinery, ripening and rotting of mangoes. Finally, the mango actors revealed several difficulties, mainly the lack of funds to support the sector, the seasonality of production, the high cost of transport and the lack of organization at the level of the sector.

Published: September 2022

This study was carried out to ascertain the characterization and classification of soils along river Donga in Donga local government area of Taraba State. Three profile pits were dug on the flat terrain for the physio-chemical properties of the soils. The pits were described and samples were collected for routine laboratory analysis for the selected physio-chemicals properties. Data collected were analyzed statistically using analysis of variance (ANOVA) The result of the laboratory analysis of the physical and chemical properties indicated that particle size distribution of sand particle dominated other fraction of fine earth materials. This can be attributed to the parent materials that gave rise to the soils.The pH (H2O) was slightly acidic in reaction in all the pedons studied (6.44, 5.82 and 5.67). The organic carbon content ranges from very low to low compared to the maximum level (5%) for tropical soils. Available phosphorus obtained exceeded the critical limits of 8.0 to >18mg/kg, which indicates that the available phosphorus were high. The exchangeable bases (Ca, Mg, K & Na) as indicated in the table 3 that Ca, Mg, K & Na were low in all the pedons studied. The results obtained from analyzed profile samples showed that percentage (%) base saturation values for all the pedons were high. The Correlation was done to determine non-significant and significant values among soil physio-chemical properties studied at 5% and 1% probability level. In addition, after the profile description and examination of the soil properties of the study area, the soils were classified using USDA soil taxonomy (2014). Pedons 1 and 2 are classified into the order of Alfisols and sub-group of Typical Haplustalf while pedon 3 is also classified into Alfisols but sub-group of Arenickandiustals (Hypereuticlixisels).

Sourcing Energy from Waste in the Circular City: Integrated Anaerobic Digestion Toward Long-Term Decarbonization of Cities
Authors:   University of Washington, Horn Erin , Proksch Gundula ,   University of Washington
Published: September 2022

Energy use within buildings contributes to nearly a third of carbon emissions in the United States (Zhang et al. 2019, EPA). Meanwhile, between 30-40% of food in the U.S. is wasted and generates carbon emissions equivalent to that of 37 million cars yearly (UN FAO). Long term decarbonization strategies within the built environment can look to alternative energy mechanisms which redirect waste resources as inputs to other systems. Circular City models of sustainability accordingly look for potentials to close loops, turning waste into resources and reducing pollution. These approaches are generating increasing interest and seek to advance a very applied approach to sustainability- one which will integrally require leadership from design fields, local governments, and community leadership to succeed.
BIOGRAPHIES OF L.N. TOLSTOY IN HISTORICAL DYNAMICS
Authors: Nagina K.A. , Korataeva N.V.
Published: September 2022

The subject of the research in the article is the reception of the figure and fate of Leo Tolstoy in biographies written in the period from 1894 to 2020, as well as its historical and cultural dynamics. The authors identify strategies for studying the life of Leo Tolstoy by biographers of different historical periods, which allows us to analyze and evaluate the dynamics of perception of the writer's figure in the XIX-XXI centuries. The reception of the figure of Leo Tolstoy in different historical periods is heterogeneous: the interpretation of the writer's image is influenced not only by the personal preferences of biographers, their goals and objectives, but also by the value orientations set by time. The historical epoch also influences the author's strategies for creating the image of Leo Tolstoy. Biographies of Leo Tolstoy written by different authors are devided into three groups: biographies created by contemporaries of Leo Tolstoy; biographies written by authors of the Soviet period; biographies of the post-Soviet period. Such division is due to a change in the historical context that affects the reception and interpretation of the image of the hero of the biography.
REHEARSAL AS INITIATION: ABOUT THE CONFLICT OF ART AND LIFE IN THE "NOTES OF THE DECEASED" BY M. A. BULGAKOV
Authors: Ivanshina E.A. , Zyatkova V.V.
Published: September 2022

The article examines the novel "Notes of the Deceased" in the context of other Bulgakov meta-plots, mainly the plays "Crimson Island" and "Half-Witted Jourdain". The general structural principle of all the texts under consideration is "theater within theater", and the general philosophical problem is the relationship between art and life. The authors' attention is focused on rehearsal as a transitional process in which art and life come into contact, reflect on each other, and exchange signs. In parallel, the article blurs the boundaries between different Bulgakov texts, the components of which are connected by similar relations. Interpreting the "Notes of the Deceased" through other Bulgakov plots, the authors conclude that, in the artistic world of M. Bulgakov, the metaphor "life - theater" is filled with ambivalent content and turns into a metaphor "theater - death". The point of convergence of these modes is the theatrical novel.
THE LOCUS OF HARLEM IN “THE STREET” BY ANN PETRY
Authors: Morozova I.V.
Published: September 2022

The article examines the Harlem locus in the first novel by the African-American writer Ann Petrie. It is proved that the Harlem locus with the "center of gravity" at 116th Street is portrayed as a place that seeks to break the individual and the black community as a whole, subjugate them, plunge them into poverty and despair. The author realistically describes the streets and houses of Harlem, cramped apartments without sunlight, in which disadvantaged people live. The locus of the street defines the semantics of the whole Harlem - it is not a cozy home for an African American, but an unsuitable place for a person, devoid of light. The representation of Harlem in the novel is built in emphasized opposition - in contrast to the estate of a rich white family. Ann Petrie uses the technique of multiple voices within a single narrative, which is ensured by the use of non-speech of the characters, each of whom tells his/her own story of unfulfilled hopes. The Harlem locus allows reading, decoding the most diverse, hidden and manifest semantic layers relating to the essential aspects of the African American community, the author's attitude to the situation in which black people existed in the 40s of the 20th century.

The search was conducted in the following electronic databases: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde, Base de Dados Enfermagem and Bibliografía Nacional en Ciencias de la Salud Argentina, as well as in studies indicated by experts. The search was conducted until September 2020. The review protocol was registered in the Open Science Framework. Results: a total of 27 studies were included, of which five were Guidelines and 22 were articles published in journals. There is a significant variety of disinfection methods for hubs and connectors. Chlorhexidine Gluconate, Isopropanol and Povidone-iodine were indicated for active disinfection; and Chlorhexidine Gluconate and Isopropanol, for passive disinfection. The disinfectant volume varied from 0.25 mL to 0.6 mL. Friction time in active disinfection ranged from five to 30 seconds, and contact time in passive disinfection varied from three minutes to seven days. The disinfectants' drying time was over five minutes. Conclusion: a variety of disinfection methods is verified, although with no consensus on the best indication. Studies that show the amount of disinfectant, pressure, friction and drying time are required. There is a need to conduct research studies with disinfection practices used in Brazil and randomized clinical trials.

Métodos: pesquisa qualitativa de inspiração fenomenológica, cujo referencial metodológico para análise dos discursos, advindos de 12 entrevistas com mães de crianças hospitalizadas no interior do estado de São Paulo, foi a análise da estrutura do fenômeno situado. Resultados: emergiram três categorias temáticas: Participando do processo de adoecimento do filho - a essencialidade da presença do pai; Sofrendo pelo filho - o pai sendo afetado pela hospitalização; Não podendo estar com o filho - o pai sendo impedido de ser acompanhante durante a hospitalização. As mães reconhecem a participação dos pais durante hospitalização do filho por meio de apoio, compartilhamento de atividades e na importância para a recuperação da criança. Contudo, o sofrimento advindo do adoecimento e da hospitalização, a necessidade de se dedicar ao trabalho, questões organizacionais do hospital e a ausência de legislações trabalhistas impedem a permanência dos pais no serviço de saúde. Conclusão: as unidades pediátricas precisam modificar as normas institucionais, acolhendo mãe e pai, oferecendo condições de permanência e apoiando-os durante a hospitalização do filho. É mister que a área de Enfermagem familiar discuta a participação do pai na vida do filho, em especial no ambiente hospitalar e de cuidados intensivos, de modo a impulsionar a elaboração de leis que garantam a manutenção do emprego em caso de acompanhamento do filho durante a hospitalização.

Objetivo: identificar a influência dos registros no prontuário como um dos fatores associados à glosa técnica. Método: estudo quantitativo analítico, de campo, transversal, no ano de 2018, em dois hospitais. Analisados 324 demonstrativos de pagamento, sendo cinco operadoras de cada hospital. Nestes demonstrativos, estão descritos códigos de glosa referentes à Tabela de Domínio de Troca de Informações de Saúde Suplementar (TISS). Resultados: nos hospitais 1 e 2, a glosa técnica de material foi maior que a de medicamento, sendo 90,99% e 84,79%, respectivamente. Os fatores associados à glosa técnica foram o tempo de permanência; p= 0,001 no hospital 1 e p= 0,01 no 2 e tipo de internação no hospital 2 com p= 0,000. O hospital 1, apresentou R$ 2.305,61 (2,28%) de glosa em nove prontuários. Contudo, todos apresentaram registros de relatório técnico, que pode ser recursado. Resultado diferente do hospital 2, onde foram glosados 43 prontuários, no valor de R$ 31.181,14 (17,82%) e, desse valor, R$ 3.096,13 são referentes aos códigos de material e de medicamentos, não tendo registros em prontuários e não sendo possível fazer recurso, acarretando perda. Conclusão: nos dois hospitais, o valor da glosa técnica de material foi maior. Há evidência de que o tempo de permanência pode gerar glosa, e quanto ao registro no prontuário, este influencia na glosa e, quando ausente, gera perda financeira. A utilização do TISS padroniza os motivos de glosas, favorece a realização da justificativa do recurso, facilita a análise dos registros e auxilia no controle do pagamento do serviço prestado.

Objetivo: investigar fatores relacionados ao padrão de consumo de bebida alcoólica em mulheres rurais. Método: estudo quantitativo de amostragem não probabilística por conveniência realizado com 259 mulheres de comunidade rural da Bahia na atenção primária à saúde. Utilizou-se formulário estruturado e o Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test. Os dados foram analisados empregando estatísticas descritivas para estimar a contribuição independente de cada variável na probabilidade dos desfechos relacionados ao consumo de bebida alcoólica. Aplicou-se a análise de regressão logística pelo software R 4.0.2 for Windows, com variáveis em ordem decrescente de significância estatística. Resultados: amostra composta por mulheres de 30 a 49 anos, predominantemente pretas, com religião, com companheiro, ensino médio completo, atividade remunerada, renda familiar menor que um salário mínimo, residentes em casa própria ou cedida. Ter religião diminui em 0,15% a chance de consumir bebida alcoólica. Morar em habitação com até 3 residentes, “não ficar ferida porque bebeu” e ter religião aumentam, respectivamente, em 89,1, 21,7 e 8,43% as chances de se manter na zona de baixo risco. Não possuir religião aumenta em 97,4% as chances de beber moderadamente. Ficar ferida porque bebeu aumenta em 98,9% as chances de fazer consumo nocivo de bebida alcoólica. Não ter religião e ficar ferida porque bebeu aumentam em 99,7% as chances de fazer uso de bebida alcoólica com provável dependência. Conclusão: a religião evidenciou-se como fator de proteção para o maior consumo de bebida alcoólica. Por outro lado, ficar ferida ou ferir alguém porque bebeu, se caracterizou como fator de risco.

Objetivo: mapear a produção científica, disseminada em bases de dados eletrônicas, acerca da assistência de Enfermagem à criança com câncer em cuidados paliativos. Métodos: revisão do tipo Scoping Review, fundamentada na metodologia recomendada pelo Instituto Joanna Briggs. As buscas das publicações foram realizadas em seis bibliotecas e/ou bases de dados, no período de 2010 a 2020. Resultados: foram incluídos 34 artigos que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão. A maior parte dos estudos foi publicada em 2014, no idioma inglês, sendo o Brasil o país que obteve destaque. As temáticas de maior prevalência apontadas pelos estudos se referiam às estratégias de atenção (principalmente relacionadas ao alívio do sofrimento e comunicação terapêutica); e dificuldades vivenciadas por profissionais de Enfermagem diante de um cuidado complexo (envolvendo o desgaste emocional e a falta de preparo em lidar com a terminalidade). Conclusão: as evidências dos estudos destacam a relevância dos cuidados paliativos, na promoção da qualidade de vida de crianças com câncer e nos desafios que precisam ser superados, para que ocorra sua aplicação na prática. Assim, para efetivar o cuidado, que vem sendo realizado ainda de forma deficitária, os dados referenciam para as principais estratégias que necessitam ser implementadas nos serviços de saúde por enfermeiros: o controle da dor, o apoio à família, o trabalho em equipe e a oferta de treinamentos para os profissionais. Ante o exposto, espera-se que este mapeamento possa subsidiar novas pesquisas, no sentido que melhor possa se compreender o campo de estudo do cuidar paliativo.

Objective. To evaluate the reactogenicity of the SPUTNIK V vaccine in post-vaccinated 6th year Medicine students who carry out their care practices in the Autonomous Teaching Service of the Central Hospital of Maracay-Venezuela. Period February 2021- February 2022. Materials and methods. Prospective, evaluative, cross-sectional study. Medicine students were recruited, between 21 and 35 years of age who carried out their internships in the Autonomous Teaching Service of the Central Hospital of Maracay. The most important study variables were: The Sputnik V vaccine and the adverse reactions, evaluated using the anamnesis in an epidemiological consultation after the first 24 hours following the administration of the first dose, and 21 days later, 24 hours after the second dose of the vaccine in the same group. A medical file, validated by three experts, was used. Descriptive statistics, frequency tables and graphs were applied. Results. The predominant age group is between 21-25 years of age, 45 (81.82%) female, 37 (67.27%), 46 (83.67%) from the state of Aragua. The vaccination interval between doses was 3 weeks. The most frequent adverse reactions in the I dose: fever (83.64), malaise (58.18), headache (47.27) and myalgia (43.64%) that decreased significantly in the II dose. (16%) did not show reaction in I and (60%) in I. Conclusion. The post-vaccinated population is young. When receiving the first dose of the vaccine, more adverse reactions appeared than in the second. This is due to activation of the immune system (humoral response against COVID-19).

We report on the impact of the 3 nm thick ex situ AlGaN regrown layer prior to insulator deposition on the interfacial properties of Al2O3/AlGaN/GaN metal–insulator–semiconductor (MIS) structures. MIS-capacitors (MIScaps) with regrown AlGaN layer exhibited anomalously excessive threshold voltage shift compared to reference sample without regrown AlGaN, suggesting highly reduced interface states density (D
it). Moreover, MIScaps with regrown AlGaN layer exhibited “spill-over” in the capacitance–voltage profiles, further evidencing the improved Al2O3/AlGaN interfaces. Fabricated three-terminal MIS-HEMTs with regrown AlGaN showed less hysteresis in transfer curves, enhanced maximum drain current, and increased linearity over the reference device.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: An imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants causes oxidative stress, which has detrimental consequences for a variety of health issues. Petiveria alliaceae (P. alliaceae) is a global plant having a variety of bioactive chemicals that have a variety of therapeutic uses. Aims: The objective of this study was to investigate the protective effect of P. alliaceae leaf aqueous extract on oxidative stress biomarkers in male rats with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced-endotoxicity. Materials and Methods: Twenty-five (25) male albino rats were divided into five (n = 5) groups at random. Group 1 was used as a control, Group 2 was given P. alliaceae aqueous extract (1000 mg/kg body weight), Group 3 was given LPS, a single intraperitoneal dose (4 ml/kg body weight), and was observed for 4 hours before being sacrificed, Group 4 was given LPS (observed for 4 hours) and treated with P. alliaceae for 7 days, Group 5 was given P. alliaceae extract for 7 days, then Spectrophotometric analysis was used to evaluate the activities of oxidative stress biomarkers (catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in plasma, erythrocytes, brain, liver, kidney, and heart. Results: As seen in this work, oxidative stress is a characteristic of LPS-induced endotoxicity. Following LPS injection, P. alliaceae leaf aqueous extract significantly (p 0.05) increased CAT and SOD activities. Conclusion The aqueous extract of P. alliaceae leaf reduced the effect of endotoxins in the body by mopping up free radicals, according to the findings

Omnibus Law is a method of legislation that combines various types of laws into one specific law to resolve statutory problems. One of the products of the Omnibus Law is the birth of the work copyright law which has caused a lot of polemics because it is considered a new legal policy in the formation of law in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to examine the omnibus law, especially the Job Creation Act from the perspective of the sociology of law. This study uses a descriptive research method with a qualitative approach. Data was collected using a literature study. The results showed that the drafting of the Omnibus Law on the Job Creation Act did not heed sociological principles so it received resistance or rejection from the community component. One of the objectives of the establishment of the Omnibus Law on Job Creation is to support the economy and make it easier for investors to invest. This is very vulnerable to corrupt practices, therefore the government is urged to pay attention to the problem of eradicating corruption and related to human rights.
