APPLICATION OF FACEBOOK TO ENGLISH TEACHING AND LEARNING: CASE OF MBEYA CITY
Authors: Madata Wilfred
Published: June 2022

Educators and policymakers have taken notice of the widespread usage of Facebook as an online social network and as an alternative method of teaching and learning. People around the world use Facebook for communication and as an English language teaching technique. When language learners use Facebook, they may come across new vocabulary and grammar rules. Despite the widespread usage of Facebook in education around the world, little research is done on how facilitators and students in Tanzanian secondary schools use it to teach and learn English. This study surveyed the level to which selected ordinary secondary schools in Tanzania apply Facebook to teach and learn English as a second language. It also investigated the awareness of students and language teachers towards the application of Facebook in teaching and learning of English language in their respective schools. The Descriptive research design was applied in data collection. The data was collected from 15 teachers who are teaching the English language and 78 students from three selected ordinary level secondary schools by using structured interview techniques and questionnaires respectively. The stratified purposive random sampling was employed to draw the respondents. Both statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS), content analysis, and excel techniques employed in analyzing data. The results show that Facebook is not mostly used as a teaching and learning tool in ordinary secondary schools in Tanzania despite the fact that teachers and students make use of it. Furthermore, it found that language learners might acquire new vocabularies and skills such as listening, writing, reading, and speaking through using Facebook.
PROPOSITION-BASED EVALUATION OF MACHINE-TRANSLATED ACADEMIC TEXT
Authors: Arum Aulia Addinillah , Baskoro B.R. Suryo
Published: June 2022

This study aims to describe the rendition of propositional meaning in machine-translated academic text. A proposition is that part of the meaning of a clause or sentence that is constant, despite changes in such things as the voice or illocutionary force of the clause. A proposition may be related to other units of its kind through interpropositional relations, such as temporal relations and logical relations. To assess whether the meaning of an utterance is conveyed adequately in the target text, we conducted the proposition-based evaluation by looking at the grammatical structure, semantic roles, and the category of proposition reflected in the source text and the target text. The analysis is done by adopting the qualitative approach based on Larson’s theory of Meaning-Based Translation. The findings of this study suggest that identical grammatical structure can have a positive correlation to the semantic structure and the transfer of meaning in machine translation. This study also reveals that grammatical-structure similarity does not always indicate meaning accuracy in translation.

Published: June 2022

This study aimed to describe teachers’ perception of the use of Google Classroom to assess students’ English skills and how the teachers assessed the students during online learning nowadays by using qualitative research method. The participants were 18 teachers who were teaching senior high school level in Pasuruan, East Java. Their ages were around 23 to 58 years old while answering the questionnaire. The data were collected by using open questionnaire and interview, then analysed by using narrative analysis. The results of this study showed that most teachers used Google classroom to assess students’ English skills because it was simpler and faster. This study suggests teachers use Google Classroom while assessing students’ English skills by providing more online assessments activities. The teachers are expected to use various platforms to facilitate the students. However, the students and teachers must adapt to the condition during the COVID-19 pandemic with the online learning system.

Authors: Nasution Jamaluddin , Mulyadi Mulyadi
Published: June 2022

This study aims to discover what and how the typology of Angkola Language (AL) is in word order as well as to determine its grammatical alliance. The application of qualitative methods was carried out descriptively to this study, it means that the data analyzed and the results are in the form of a phenomenon description. The stages in this research are data collection, data analysis, and presentation of data analysis results/conclusions. The conclusion of this study is the word order, namely: (1) declarative sentences in AL are in the pattern of: a) Verb + Subject + Object for intransitive; b) Verb + Object + Subject for transitive; (2) The negation sentences have 2 patterns: a) Negation + Subject + Verb + Object; b) Subject + Negation + Verb + Object; (3) Interrogative sentences have 3 patterns: a) Subject + Verb + Object; b) Verb + Subject + Object; and c) Passive-Verb + Subject + Object; and (4) Imperative sentences have 2 patterns: a) Verb + Object (subject disappears); and b) Verb + Subject + Object (similar to a declarative sentence). In AL, the argument Agent (A) behaves the same as the argument Subject (S) and is different from the argument Patient (P); therefore, this language pattern is classified as an accusative type. It is expected that there will be a syntactic typology researches in AL which examine the syntactic typology comprehensively as an effort to preserve and maintain local/ethnic languages.
"HELLO, I'M A NATIVE SPEAKER": NONNATIVE TUTORS' PERSPECTIVES ON NATIVE-SPEAKERISM IDEOLOGY
Authors: Silalahi Ronald Maraden Parlindungan , Widianingtyas Nugraheni
Published: June 2022

Native-speakerism is an ideology in foreign language teaching that believes that Native English Speaking Teachers (NESTs) have better competencies than Nonnative English Speaking Teachers (NNESTs). There are marked differences between NESTs and NNESTs in private classroom learning; for instance, the hourly fees of NESTs are much higher than NNESTs regardless of the long language teaching career. More importantly, there is hardly any research on Native-speakerism ideology from the perspective of nonnative English private tutors. This research, therefore, is conducted to give a broader conception of how NNESTs perceive the native-speakerism ideology in a private class context and contribute to the relatively unexplored area of language teaching. The data of this qualitative study were obtained through a small-scale interview with nonnative English private tutors. Results show that private learning, based on the informants' standpoints, is more oriented to making speakers able to use language skills to communicate fluently than to understand the target language culture, which NNESTs may not fully comprehend. The identity as a NEST and NNEST insignificantly affects tutors' linguistic and teaching competence. However, it significantly creates a massive gap in the teaching costs despite most NESTs' lack of classroom management skills and communication effectiveness to explain teaching materials due to language barriers.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, students in Indonesia were required to study from home for about the past two years. It affected learning activities that made students less engaged. This research offers the Online Collaborative Gaming Approach model to improve students’ engagement and participation in English learning. Inviting 58 students as research participants, the researchers reported the implementation of the Collaborative Gaming Approach and evaluation based on students’ perspectives. This study employed Classroom Action Research utilizing students’ scores, questionnaires and interviews, to measure the criteria of success. The result of the study showed that the average score in the quiz game activity inceased after the implementation of the quiz game (from 74,1 to 88,64). The result of the questionnaires also stated that 94.83% (55) students agreed that quiz game activities gave positive perceptions on the affective aspect, 91.38% (53) students agreed that quiz game activities gave positive perceptions on the social aspect, and 94.83% (55) students agreed that quiz game activities gave positive perceptions on the cognitive aspect. The result of the data showed that the collaborative gaming approach gives a positive impact on students. It implies that the practice of the collaborative gaming approach can increase the students’ engagement.
MAGICAL REALISM IN ANDREA CREMER AND DAVID LEVITHAN’S NOVEL INVISIBILITY
Authors: Syahputra Nisa Asha , Wedawati Mamik Tri
Published: June 2022

Andrea Cremer and David Levithan’s Invisibility is a contemporary novel with a twist of magical realism. Stephen and Elizabeth, the main characters, had made the story in the novel different colors. The study focused on how magical realism was presented in the novel through its five characteristics: irreducible element, the phenomenal world, unsettling doubts, merging realms, and disruptions of time, space, and identity. Applying Wendy B. Faris’ perspective, this study examined extraordinary things that happened within the ordinary to sort them into said characteristics of magical realism. The qualitative research method applied proved that in Cremer and Levithan’s Invisibility, there existed extraordinary events for each magical realism element, such as Stephen’s abrupt disappearance when Elizabeth blinked as the irreducible element; Stephen’s acceptance of being invisible and living in a accessible place like New York as the phenomenal world; Elizabeth’s doubts concerning Stephen’s form as the unsettling doubt; an ordinary-looking comic store being a magical office in disguise as the merging realm; and Elizabeth’s ability to enter into a different side of the regular universe as the disruption of space.
Promoting induction heating – steam generators for medical sterilisation
Authors: Jemmad Kamal , Hmidat Abdelhamid , Saad Abdallah
Published: June 2022

Saturated steam sterilisers are one of the most energy consumers in hospitals. Induction heating (IH) could be one of the energy saving solutions considering its proven potential in industrial applications such as steam generation (SG) and pasteurisation. Hitherto, there are no studies in literature about this field except one for dentistry. In this review paper, we aim to investigate valuable energy efficient guidelines for designers to promote IH steam generators integration in the medical sterilisation. To do so, we conduct an energy flow analysis based on a process-oriented decomposition. We then detail the previously identified guidelines through a review of the literature on IH-based liquid heating and analyse them throughout the paper. Many key points protrude therefrom: "inductor-susceptor/water" interactions are decisive especially susceptor shapes. A package of susceptor shapes exposed in this paper can be considered. Back heat transfer from the susceptor to inductor is important too. Frequency and turbulence has opposite effects, so should be given the utmost attention. Inductor losses need to be reduced via coil wrapping, water cooling, and multi-coil design for high powers. The energy efficient design of the susceptor includes stray magnetic fields, geometry of the susceptor, skin depth, and the effect of electromotive force due to eddy currents. Susceptor-inductor coupling is relevant too. Finally, the optimisation of thermal transfer to water involves insulation, frequency, discharge losses, turbulence and susceptor shape. Based on these parameters, good designs can be put forward to launch prototypes and explore fully IH opportunities in this field for more energy efficient sterilisers.

Published: June 2022

Molecular-based methods have shown potential for improving pathogen detection and reducing animal use. While increasing evidence supports rodent-free environmental health PCR pathogen detection, limited information is available regarding efficacy for disposable individually ventilated
caging systems. In such systems, testing of plenum exhaust air dust is ineffective, and the use of collection media is optimal. We performed a series of studies to compare PCR infectious agent detection with dust collected on media placed in a mouse-free soiled bedding cage, the cage exhaust
filter of an occupied sentinel cage, and direct sampling from colony and sentinel mice with traditional soiled bedding mouse sentinels. We hypothesized that after a 3-mo period, testing of filter media agitated in a soiled bedding cage would be equal to or more sensitive than more traditional
methods. Agitated media detected Astrovirus-1, segmented filamentous bacteria and Helicobacter ganmani to a degree comparable to testing lid exhaust filter PCR from a sentinel mouse cage, but opportunists such as Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis were not detected
consistently, and H. hepaticus was not detected at all. Direct sampling of pooled fecal pellets and body swabs from sentinel mice and testing using PCR also failed to reliably detect opportunists and Helicobacter spp. While further work is needed to refine use of filter
media in soiled bedding for detection of lower prevalence opportunists, this report provides evidence that a rodent-free method of reliably detecting murine agents in a disposable individually ventilated cage system with cage-level filtration outperforms direct sampling of soiled bedding sentinel
mice.
World Music Cultures in Russian Musical Education
Authors: Yunusova Violetta
Published: June 2022

The article is devoted to the analysis of the history and the current state of the study of World Music Cultures in the Russian higher musical education. The article mainly took into account the experience of St. Petersburg and Moscow as the most indicative. The process of introducing World music in training courses in Moscow and St. Petersburg included four stages.
Within the framework of the first stage, ethnomusicology, the history of music was coordinated. Some problems of World music were highlighted by Russian scientists MI Ivanov–Boretsky and B Asafiev.
In the second stage, RI Gruber's multilateral activities stand out, whose course, History of World Musical Culture included extensive material on musical cultures of Ancient East, including Iran, India, China, as well as medieval Chinese and Arab cultures.
The third stage is characterized by the separation of World Music Cultures into a separate area of research and training courses. This process is demonstrated with the example of the creative activity of the composer and scientist JK Mikhailov. He based his approach on the positions of musical cultural studies and combined with a training course with several scientific directions: the history of music, music Oriental studies, and ethnomusicology.
The modern stage parameters of the course, of nonEuropean musical cultures, are indicated. The spread of the course in Russia and neighboring countries, the republics of the USSR, is shown. The author gives examples of the programs and the manuals for this course, and indicates the position of training in the field of postgraduate and doctoral studies. This direction is developing in four modern schools of Russian musical Oriental Studies: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, and Far Eastern.

Совместный космический эксперимент (КЭ) NASA и Роскосмоса Flame Design (Адамант) - один из шести экспериментов, проводимых в настоящее время астронавтами NASA и космонавтами Роскосмоса на американском сегменте Международной космической станции (МКС) в рамках проекта ACME (русский перевод: «Продвинуться в понимании горения с помощью экспериментов в условиях микрогравитации»). Цель КЭ - экспериментальное и теоретическое изучение фундаментальных механизмов управления сажеобразованием в сферическом диффузионном пламени (СДП), формируемом вокруг пористой сферы (ПС), и радиационного погасания СДП в условиях микрогравитации. Объекты исследования - «прямые» и «обратные» СДП газообразного этилена в атмосфере кислорода с добавками инертных газов, азота и диоксида углерода при комнатной температуре и давлениях от 0,02 до 0,1 МПа. «Прямое» пламя - это пламя, образованное в атмосфере окислителя при подаче горючего через ПС. «Обратное» пламя - это пламя, образованное в атмосфере горючего при подаче окислителя через ПС. Данные КЭ используются для проверки одномерных, двумерных и трехмерных физико-математических моделей явления, включающих сокращенные и детальные кинетические механизмы окисления и горения этилена, сажеобразования, свойства переноса в многокомпонентной газовой смеси, а также конвективный и кондуктивный теплообмен и теплообмен излучением. Ожидается, что в результате выполнения проекта будут получены новые знания о физике и химии диффузионных пламен, которые помогут в решении задач управления горением и снижения вредных выбросов при горении. В статье представлены текущие экспериментальные и теоретические результаты проекта.

La contaminación acústica es una de las principales problemáticas medioambientales actuales, y concretamente en Andalucía dentro de ellas, el exceso de ruido ocupa el sexto lugar. Mediante este trabajo se pretende conocer cuál es la percepción acústica de la ciudadanía andaluza, tanto antes, como durante el desarrollo de la pandemia por COVID-19. Para averiguar cómo afecta este tipo de contaminación a la población, se ha utilizado una metodología cuantitativa, a través de encuestas, realizando un total de 1152 entrevistas a población andaluza residente en ciudades de más de 40 000 habitantes. Uno de los hallazgos de la investigación ha sido que casi tres cuartas partes de la población opina que vive en una ciudad muy o bastante ruidosa. También hemos detectado que los principales focos de ruido para la región andaluza son los producidos por el tráfico, hablar alto, obras en la vía pública y reformas de los vecinos. Estos focos de ruido, se mantuvieron en el mismo orden de importancia durante la etapa de confinamiento, aunque hubo un descenso de la incidencia de los mismos, debido a la inactividad que supuso la pandemia en todos los aspectos de la vida cotidiana.

Urban transport is one of the most dynamic and a vital element within the urban sphere, as it has a significant impact on the growth and development of cities in all respects; it determines the size and direction of urbanization and directs it properly as well. Bordj Bou Arreridj is an Algerian city that witnessed a spectacular urban expansion, which resulted in great difficulties in terms of urban transport. This resulted in the inability to fulfill the role assigned to it, especially with regard to the urban expansion of the city, given the insufficient means of urban transport, especially collective ones - Old urban bus barns – and thus, meeting the growing demand for transport due to the large demographic growth. In addition to that, the fragility of the urban transport system as a whole has led to lack of harmony and interconnectedness of all parts of the city, and to the imbalance in the management of the sector. The study concluded that the urban area of the city is characterized by an important network of roads and streets that ensure good connectivity between its parts, but the existing urban transport network does not cover all its components (49% is the covered area in the city), as some areas lack urban transport service, especially those located on its suburbs as a result of the rapid urbanization. In order to redress this phenomenon, it was necessary to reconsider the general urban transportation system on both management and organizational sides, taking into account all urban components of the city, especially future expansions, in order to reach a harmonious and interconnected city under a balanced and effective transportation system.

Authors: Zubkova M. I. , Knyazev S. D. , Ozherelieva Z. E.
Published: June 2022

Background. The realization of high productivity potential in strawberry plants significantly depends on their adaptability to soil and climate conditions of their cultivation. Winter hardiness is the most important trait in the central part of Russia. With this in view, the purpose of this study was to identify sources of high winter hardiness combined with high productivity and yield potential among the studied cultivars.

Materials and methods. The research was carried out at the primary variety testing site of the All-Russian Research Institute of Fruit Crop Breeding (VNIISPK), Orel Province, in accordance with the published program and methodology of fruit, berry and nut variety studies. The testing covered 23 domestic and foreign strawberry cultivars. An Espec PSL-2KPH climate chamber (Japan) and a Polair refrigerator cabinet (Russia) were used for artificial freezing.

Results. Winter hardiness of strawberry cultivars was assessed under artificial freezing conditions. Cvs. ‘Korona’, ‘Tsaritsa’, ‘Solovushka’ and ‘Sara’ were the most winter-hardy cultivars. The study of the cultivars in the field made it possible to identify the most productive and large-fruited ones: ‘Alba’, ‘Azia’, ‘Bereginya’ and ‘Tsaritsa’. Cv. ‘Tsaritsa’ combines high winter hardiness and high yield productivity and yield potential, being a valuable source of these traits in breeding practice. According to a set of indicators ‘Tsaritsa’ is promising for large-scale cultivation in the Central Black Earth Region of Russia.

Published: June 2022

Background. Blackberry is becoming increasingly popular in Russia for its rapid early-fruiting, high self-fertility and late flowering, contributing to longer consumption of fresh berries, a source of antioxidant compounds. There is a need to study the biochemical composition of blackberries.

Materials and methods. Fruits of 25 blackberry cultivars and hybrid seedlings from the Institute of Fruit Crop Breeding (VNIISPK) were analyzed for the contents of catechins, leucoanthocyanins, anthocyanins, and total phenolic compounds using the photometric method, and the content of ascorbic acid using the titrimetric method. Statistical data processing was carried out using the methods of variation and correlation analyses.

Results. Bioactive compounds (BAC) accumulating in blackberry fruits were studied: ascorbic acid, catechins, leukoanthocyanins, anthocyanins, and total phenolics, with medium and significant variability of the studied indicators (V > 10%). Among the genotypes, 73% accumulated more than 20.0 mg/100 g of ascorbic acid in fruits. All genotypes were identified as sources of anthocyanins. About 50% of the accessions accumulated catechins in fruits above the average level. Leucoanthocyanins were stored in blackberry fruits in slightly larger amounts than catechins. In 10 accessions the level of phenolics was higher than 1000.0 mg/100 g.

Conclusion. Genotypes with high BAC content were identified. Correlation coefficients were obtained: they indicate the presence of an medium degree of rectilinear relationship between the content of ascorbic acid and anthocyanin compounds, ascorbic acid and total phenolics. Cvs. ‘Black Satin’, ‘Cacanska Bestrna’, ‘Chester’, ‘Natchez’ and ‘Triple Crown’, plus hybrid seedlings LN-14, LN-1 and LN-7, were identified according to a set of indicators (ascorbic acid and phenolics) and recommended for breeding to improve the quality of blackberry fruits.

The main source of the spread of the invasive origin and the entry of toxoplasma oocysts into the external environment are pets - cats, infection of all types of mammals is possible. Transmission of the pathogen can occur during contact with animals, as well as when using thermally insufficiently processed meat. The main danger of toxoplasmosis is for pregnant cats (primary infection during pregnancy is associated with the risk of congenital toxoplasmosis and fetal development disorders), as well as with a pronounced decrease in immunity. In domestic pets of the feline family, pathogens of toxoplasmosis are at different stages of development, therefore oocysts can be detected by examining freshly excreted feces by the Fulleborn method or by detecting antibodies in the blood by enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) using the Immunorun Antigen Detection Kit canine Heartworm test system, manufactured by Biogal - Galed labs (Israel). The material for this work was the results of laboratory tests of blood and faecal samples from 73 pets (46 females, 27 males) aged 6 months to 10 years and one-time studies by the Fulleborn method of faecal samples from 109 different-aged pets (69 females, 40 males) examined in 2020-21 in the veterinary clinic of the city of Yakutsk due to other diseases and preventive examination.

Infectious bronchitis (IB) is a contagious respiratory disease of chickens of worldwide distribution and economic importance. KRKA's Doxatib® includes doxycycline hyclate, which is a tetracycline antibiotic. Known facts of the presence and antiviral effect of doxycycline against RNA viruses, incl. through the activation of the antiviral protein ZAP, as well as the presence of anti-inflammatory effects of doxycycline, including in COVID 19 in humans. The aim of the study was to study the anti-inflammatory activity of doxycycline in infectious bronchitis of chickens. Modeling of infectious bronchitis was carried out by infecting 14 day-old chickens of the Shaver cross, 10x with a dose of the vaccine strain IBV H120. The experimental group of chickens was given the drug Doxatib® (doxycycline) manufactured by Krka, d.d., in accordance with the instructions for the drug. Pathological anatomical autopsy revealed a decrease in inflammatory processes in the thymus and lungs. Luminescent microscopy of the lungs revealed a decrease in interstitial lung inflammation and exudate in chickens of the experimental group, compared with the control group. When analyzing the expression of genes involved in inflammatory processes, the anti-inflammatory effects of the drug doxycycline (Doxatib® Krka, d.d.) were established. The found changes in the expression of genes involved in the activation of the inflammatory response are identical to the anti-inflammatory effect of doxycycline in coronavirus infection (COVID 19) in humans and consist in the suppression of pro-inflammatory factors that can increase mortality in coronavirus infections, both in humans and in chickens, NFkB, IL6, FCR.

This study evaluated bovine leukemia virus (BLV) prevalence in Kochenevsky district, Novosibirsk region,Russia. BLV prevalence data in farmsteads of private farmers and large livestock farms were obtained; phylogenetic analysis was conducted to define BLV genotypes in the study region. PCR analysis was used to detect BLV proviral cDNA; focal virus spread was identified. The BLV prevalence among the cattle of the private farmsteads ranged from 0% to 79% across the study areas. Among the livestocks of the Kochenevsky district, 72% of samples were positive for BLV. The BVL 1000-bp genome fragment coding the env gene region was obtained for 191 samples. The following phylogenetic analysis was performed and 162 sequences were classified as genotype 4 and the remaining 29 sequences were classified as genotype 7. BLV 7 genotype was identified among Proskudnoe private farmsteads only, while BLV genotype 4 was widespread across the region. Both BLV genotype 7 (n=17) and 4 (n=126) were detected in the dairy farm. Phylogenetic analysis revealed distinct clusters (with a bootstrap support value і75) of BLV sequences most likely indicating to the several transmission routes of the infection in the Kochenevsky district. The study results can be used to replenish fundamental knowledge about the BLV evolution and development of novel BLV prevention and elimination approaches.
Legislative base for the meat products adulteration countering: World practice
Authors: Gergel M.A.
Published: June 2022

The problem of unauthorized meat impurities (missing in labeling) in meat products, often without proper permission from veterinary and sanitary control authorities, is increasing because of the international food trade intensification, supply chain complication, and extension for several countries and continents. Therefore, definitions and actions on adulterated meat products harmonization and regulation at the national level is needed. The European Union, United States and Russian Federation legal acts regulated the "adulterated products" definition, and the control and counteraction system are discussed in this article. The insufficient control because of system reform, economic benefits of companies (low level of financial responsibility for the falsified raw materials using compared to profit), the systematic control disregard, and only consumer health risk in order the trade restriction are the main reasons for the meat products adulteration in the European Union. The activity against meat products adulteration on the EU, specifically the current laboratory methods using (real-time PCR as a confirmation method) and unfair manufacturers fines tighten (effective and proportional penalties), have proved effective. In the Russian Federation adulterated products is strictly regulated, however it is necessary to introduce the impurities quantitative characteristics in meat products using international experience adulteration countering to control and prevent its realization.

Published: June 2022

This article describes the use of the prophylactic effectiveness of probiotic preparation Bacell-M in obstetric-gynecological diseases and mastitis in cows. Duration of recording of residual amount of antibiotic in milk with combined application of Bacell-M with antibiotics is established. The effect of probiotic supplement on milk quality indicators was studied. This probiotic Bacell-M supplement at a dose of 60 g. per head prevents the incidence of cows of obstetric and gynecological pathology. The number of follow-up detention is reduced by 6.7%, subinvolution of the uterus by 13.3% compared to the control group. Postpartum animals (post-calving follow-up) were not recorded in both trial groups, and 6.6% and 13.3% of cows were diagnosed in control groups, respectively. The incidence of acute endometritis in both the experimental and control groups was diagnosed in one percent, but in the experimental groups it was 6.6% lower. The incidence of mastitis in the control groups ranged from 26.6 to 33.3%. However, the use of the probiotic supplement Bacell-M reduced the incidence by 13.3 and 26.7%, respectively. The use of an antibacterial preparation against the background of the use of probiotic agents reduces the time of antibiotic registration in milk by 19,6 hours. Based on the obtained data, the positive effect is confirmed by the use of a fodder probiotic supplement as an agent for the prevention of gynecological diseases and mastitis in cows. Reduced time of antibiotic presence in cow milk and beneficial effect on milk quality are proved.

Published: June 2022

This work is aimed to describe linearly expand-contract plastic ellipsoids given via quadratic form of a bounded positively defined self-adjoint operator in terms of its spectrum.Let $Y$ be a metric space and $F\colon Y\to Y$ be a map. $F$ is called non-expansive if it does not increase distance between points of the space $Y$. We say that a subset $M$ of a normed space $X$ is linearly expand-contract plastic (briefly an LEC-plastic) if every linear operator $T\colon X \to X$ whose restriction on $M$ is a non-expansive bijection from $M$ onto $M$ is an isometry on $M$.In the paper, we consider a fixed separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$. We define an ellipsoid in $H$ as a set of the following form $E =\left\{x \in H\colon \left\langle x, Ax \right\rangle \le 1 \right\}$ where $A$ is a self-adjoint operator for which the following holds: $\inf_{\|x\|=1} \left\langle Ax,x\right\rangle >0$ and $\sup_{\|x\|=1} \left\langle Ax,x\right\rangle < \infty$.We provide an example which demonstrates that if the spectrum of the generating operator $A$ has a non empty continuous part, then such ellipsoid is not linearly expand-contract plastic.In this work, we also proof that an ellipsoid is linearly expand-contract plastic if and only if the spectrum of the generating operator $A$ has empty continuous part and every subset of eigenvalues of the operator $A$ that consists of more than one element either has a maximum of finite multiplicity or has a minimum of finite multiplicity.

The lowest frequency of bending vibrations of a plate in contact with a liquid or gas is determined. The derivation of the expression for the distributed transverse load on the plate is given under the assumption of its cylindrical bending. The plate surfaces are in contact with a medium of different density and pressure. The medium can be compressible during surface deformation and incompressible. The influence on the bending of the interaction of the average pressure and changes in the curvature of the middle surface, as well as the added mass of the gaseous medium, is determined.

A comprehensive assessment of the harmfulness and danger of working conditions at the main workplaces is becoming important for preserving the health of working population. The goal of study was the assessment of occupational factors effects to non-carcinogenic effects development in electricians working in 500 kV power substation. The study objects were workers and workplaces in «Agadyr» substation. The main group consists of workplaces and operational personnel of «Agadyr» substation, the control group includes auxiliary workers who do not have direct contact with power frequency electromagnetic field (EMF). Research methods: hygienic, analytical, statistical. As a result of the study, a comprehensive assessment of harmfulness and danger of working conditions at the main workplaces was carried out, replacement doses of physical and chemical factors, non-carcinogenic risks were calculated for power enterprise substation employees in summer and winter periods of year. There was significant elevation compered to control the replacement dose of EMF exposure in electricians (60 times) and a smaller elevation of magnetic field dose of (5 times). Gas welders were exposed to the greatest non-carcinogenic risks during inhalation of chemicals into the body of workers. A high level of non-carcinogenic risk was detected for substation electrician and engineer, equipment repair electrician as well as lineman.

Introduction: At the present stage of medicine development, studies of not only risk factors for the development of occupational diseases, but also genomic studies of genetic and biochemical polymorphic systems and relationship of individual allelic variants of genes with various pathological processes are significant to assess personalized risk of developing occupational pathology The goal of study was to identify the association of polymorphic variants of cytokine genes with the concentration of 8-OH-deoxyguanosine (8-ОНdG) in workers exposed to asbestos dust. Materials and methods: 162 people were examined, groups were formed who worked in contact with chrysotile asbestos with an established diagnosis of asbestosis and without bronchopulmonary pathology. Serum levels of 8-ОНdG, single nucleotide polymorphisms of the IL-6 (rs1800795), IL-10 (rs1800795), and TNF-α (rs1800629) genes were determined. Results: An association of IL-6 gene G allele, IL-10 gene A allele, and TNF-α gene A allele with increase of 8-OHdG levels was revealed. Conclusion: The obtained results confirm the significance of cytokines genetic polymorphism in the development of asbestos-related bronchopulmonary pathology due to activation and intensification of free radical oxidation processes.

Introduction: Staff use EP-4(0) type screening suits during work near overhead transmission lines (OTL) with the power frequency (PF) electric field (EF) permissible limit value (PLV) exceed. Staff work even at high ambient temperatures, which has an additional impact in the humans’ body functional state (FS). Scope: to study EP-4(0) type screening suit effect to human body functional state under work in sanitary protection zones of extremely high voltage OTL in the warm season. Materials and methods: In research studies of volunteers, climatic conditions were assessed. The skin and the kits’ inner surface temperature and humidity, as well as heart rate were recorded. The mean skin temperature, heat content and total moisture loss change were calculated. PF EF and magnetic fields (MF) levels hygienic assessment was carried out within the boundaries of OTL sanitary breaks. Results: Skin temperature, humidity and temperature of the kits’ inner surface values increase, as well as high level of heat content were revealed. EF and MF PF levels hygienic assessment under work at ground potential showed EF value excess up to 2 times near 500 kV and 750 kV OTL, while MF PLV were not exceeded for the entire work shift. Conclusion: Differences in human body FS indicators can be associated with the different length of OTL sanitary breaks. EF and MF PF levels hygienic assessment results require the work time restriction or EP-4(0) mandatory use.

Introduction: Currently, the problem of chemical defeats at work continues to be relevant. According to the Federal Center for Hygiene and Epidemiology of Rospotrebnadzor, diseases (intoxication) caused by chemical factors exposure averaged 5.74–6.39% of occupational diseases per year all registered cases. As result of toxic substances inhalation, direct damage to lungs occurs with the further development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). According to the national intensive care guide in the treatment of ARDS, the following main areas are distinguished - respiratory therapy and drug treatment. The latter includes infusion therapy, the use of glucocorticoids, surfactant preparations, narcotic analgesics and diuretics. Respiratory support consists in the use of mechanical ventilation (MV), and if the latter is not effective, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methods: literature data analyzes of acute chemical lung lesions treatment, as well as data on types, methods of liquid ventilation lung use. Results: It was found that the use of lungs both partial and total liquid ventilation using perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds not only improved gas exchange in the lungs, but reduced the severity of the inflammatory response also. It was shown that the method of lung liquid ventilation (LVL) is promising. In turn, the increase in oxygenation we received, the increase in partial blood pressure during the alveolar phase of oedema, shows the advantage of liquid ventilation over existing ventilation regimes MV, thereby reflecting the potential of LAVL as a new method of respiratory support in acute lung lesions.

Picture fuzzy sets (PFSs) are frequently composed of positive, neutral, and negative memberships and have the benefit of precisely capturing the preferences of decision makers (DMs). This paper introduces innovative picture fuzzy aggregation operators (AOs) based on fundamental operations, which have a number of advantages when dealing with real-world scenarios. Unpredictability and fuzziness coexist in decision-making analysis due to the complexity of the decision-making environment. ”Picture fuzzy numbers” (PFNs) outperform ”intuitionistic fuzzy numbers” (IFNs) when dealing with unclear input. This study proposes two aggregation operators (AOs): ”picture fuzzy hybrid weighted arithmetic geometric aggregation (PFHWAGA) operator” and ”picture fuzzy hybrid ordered weighted arithmetic geometric aggregation (PFHOWAGA) operator.” The proposed operators outperform the current PFN-defined operators. The proposed operator is utilised in the multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) process to third-party logistic provider selection.

Perbankan syariah dalam peristilahan internasional dikenal sebagai Islamic Banking atau juga disebut dengan interest-free banking. Peristilahan dengan menggunakan kata Islamic tidak dapat dilepaskan dari asal mula sistem perbankan syariah itu sendiri. Oleh karena itu, perbankan syariah merupakan segala sesuatu yang menyangkut tentang bank syariah dan unit usaha syariah yang mencakup kelembagaan, kegiatan usaha, serta cara dan proses dalam melaksanakan kegiatan usahanya. Adanya Perbankan syariah diharapkan dapat berperan sebagai fasilitator aktif bagi terbentuknya jaringan usaha ekonomi kerakyatan yang berbasis syariah atau religious. Oleh sebab itu bank syariah harus memiliki standart pelayanan nasabah yang jelas. Pelayanan adalah setiap tindakan yang diberikan petugas bank kepada nasabah yang memerlukan bantuan bank demi kelancaran urusan keuangannya.
