Kariangau Ferry Port which is managed and supervised by the Land Transportation Management Agency (BPTD) Region XVII of East Kalimantan and North Kalimantan Provinces serves 3 tracks, namely Kariangau - Penajam, Balikpapan - Palu, and Balikpapan - Mamuju. The Balikpapan – Palu track is 213 miles served by the Swarna Kartika Crossing Motor Boat (KMP. Swarna Kartika) operated by PT. Jembatan Nusantara with travel time ±20 hours. The distance traveled which takes a long time, it is necessary to pay attention to the security and safety conditions of the vehicles on board the ship. Currently, the arrangement and handling of vehicle loads on board the ship is still careless and positioned at a very close distance without rope safety (lashing) so that it is very dangerous for ship operators and vehicles on board. The method used to analyze existing problems is the analysis of the calculation of the load capacity of vehicles per group based on the Production Unit (SUP) in the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 66 of 2019 concerning the Mechanism for Determining and Formulating the Calculation of Crossing Transportation Tariffs. Based on the results of the analysis, it was concluded that the average load factor of loading and unloading vehicles is very high, namely 139.49%. The ideal number of vehicle capacities on board KMP.Swarna Kartika is not yet suitable based on the Production Unit (SUP), where the SUP available vessels is smaller than the capacity of the used SUP. So that from this calculation, it is planned to arrange vehicles per group on the ship to match the SUP capacity available for the ship.

Whole-grain cereals in dog food : Effects on metabolism and gut microbiota
Authors: Palmqvist Hanna
Published: September 2023

During domestication from the wolf, the gastrointestinal tract in dogs adapted to a diet containing starch, which is often present in substantial amounts in commercial dog food. In humans, diets with whole grain, compared with refined, are reported to have beneficial metabolic effects, possibly through the microbiota and short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) produced during fermentation of dietary fiber by certain bacteria, e.g Prevotella. The objective of this thesis was thus to explore the effects of wholegrain cereals; wheat, oats and rye, in dog diets on metabolism, gut microbiota and SCFA. Rye is an uncommon ingredient in dog food, thus an initial study with six Beagle dogs evaluated suitable inclusion rate and effects on microbiota compared with refined wheat. In a subsequent study, 18 privately-owned dogs were fed three diets with whole grains of wheat, oats or rye in a cross-over experiment, and effects on fecal microbiota, SCFA and postprandial metabolic response were studied. Whole grain rye included at 25% of dry matter was acceptably digested and tolerated by the dogs. A 50% inclusion rate induced a significant shift in fecal microbial composition with an increase in relative abundance of Prevotella. Whole grains from wheat, oat or rye did not have differing effects on general fecal microbial composition, but microbial diversity was higher following wheat compared with rye. Bacteroides abundance was lower after rye than after wheat or oats, and inversely related to Prevotella abundance. Fecal acetate and propionate concentrations were higher after rye than after oats. The oat diet resulted in higher postprandial blood concentration of glucose, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and triacylglycerol compared with wheat. Fasting insulin was higher after rye than after wheat or oats. Wheat tended to result in more insulin per glucose and GLP-1 than the other two diets. Overall, the results in this thesis indicate that whole grain rye can affect dog gut microbiota composition and function in ways that could be beneficial to health. Further studies on the metabolic effects of whole grains in dog food are warranted.

Published: September 2023

O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os efeitos da medicação Bopriva® (Imunocastração) em garrotes em relação ao acabamento de carcaça e ganho médio de peso. Foram selecionados 50 bovinos mestiços, com peso inicial médio de 447,4 kg. Os animais foram distribuídos aleatoriamente em dois grupos: o grupo controle e o grupo imunocastrado. No grupo imunocastrado, a medicação foi administrada com uma segunda dose repetida 60 dias após a primeira, com a garantia de um efeito de quatro meses, conforme as informações do fabricante. Após o período de quatro meses após a segunda dose, ambos os grupos foram pesados novamente para avaliação do ganho médio de peso e acabamento de carcaça. A análise dos pesos revelou que os bovinos que receberam a medicação imunocastradora apresentaram um ganho de peso final 63,8 kg superior em relação ao grupo controle. Com base nos resultados obtidos neste experimento, conclui-se que a imunocastração demonstrou a capacidade de aumentar significativamente o ganho médio de peso em bovinos mestiços. Esses achados sugerem que a imunocastração pode ser uma opção benéfica para os produtores, pois contribui para melhorias no desempenho dos animais. Essa abordagem pode ter implicações positivas tanto em termos de eficiência produtiva quanto na qualidade da carne produzida.

Published: September 2023

This study investigates the effect of reward and punishment on employee work discipline. The employees at an auto dealer company in Bandung were asked questions as part of the research method. The number of respondents who participated in this study was 97 employees. The results of the study show that there is an effect of reward and punishment on work discipline. However, the effect of the reward variable on work discipline has a more minor effect than the punishment variable. The punishment variable is the dominant variable influencing work discipline; in other words, the effect of punishment on work discipline is greater than the effect of rewards on work discipline. Companies should be able to increase the punishment of employees based on such things as paying attention to clarity after making mistakes, demotions, and verbal reprimands.

Background: There is paucity of data on rational drug use studies at tertiary hospitals in Zambia. The aim of this study was to assess the extent of rational drug use at the adults and paediatrics outpatient departments of the University Teaching Hospital (UTH) using World Health Organization (WHO) standardized drug-use indicators.Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive, retrospective study of prescription encounters, selected using systematic random sampling methods was conducted at the adult and paediatric outpatient departments of UTH. WHO format of core and complimentary drug use indicators were used to collect prescribing indicators, patient care data which included consultation time, dispensing time and knowledge of correct dosage.Results: A total of 1486 drugs encounters were prescribed from both adult and paediatric outpatient wings in 2015. The average number of drugs per prescription was 2.5(SD±1.58), with a range of 1 to 7 drugs per prescription. The antibiotic and injection-prescribing rate was 53.7% and 11.8%respectively. Generic prescribing was at 56.1%. Percentage of drugs prescribed from the Zambia Essential Medicines List (ZEML) was 98.1%. Average consulting and dispensing time was 9.5 minutes and 1.3 minutes respectively. Percentage of patients with knowledge of correct dosing schedule was 78.9%. Labelling of medicines was adequate. All consultation rooms did not have Standard Treatment Guidelines (STG's) or any reference literature and were not connected to the internet.Conclusion: Low rate of injection prescribing was rational but consultation times were shorter than recommended and therefore irrational. High rate of antibiotic prescribing was irrational going by WHO standards for health facilities and this could lead to microbial resistance. Brand name prescribing was also irrational and common. Prescribing outside the ZEML was minimal and rational.

Six insecticides, namely Cypermethrin, Dimethoate, Carbaryl, Diflubenzuron, Neem and Bacillus thuringiensis (dipel) were tried against brinjal shoot, fruit borer and seed yield. Among them Cypermethrin, and Dimethoate were found to be the most effective in reducing the damage of shoot, fruits, and seed yield and thereby increasing the yield of brinjal fruits. In the present investigation, the shoot damage due to B.t. + diflubenzuron, B.t. + carbaryl was 8.52 and 6.84 percent in 2021- 22 and 9.93 and 9.45 in 2022-23 respectively, while the shoot infestation in control was 12.07 and 13.96 percent respectively, while B.t.alone proved to be very less against the shoot borer.  Fruit infestation on both weight and number basis was minimum due to the treatment of B.T. application at transplanting followed by a combined application of B.T. + cypermethrin and B.T. + dimethoate. It might be due to that chemical pesticidal act as stressors and are frequently synergistic when combined with microorganisms such as Bacillus thuringienses.

O presente trabalho refere-se a uma proposta metodológica, com uso de um material didático em forma de jogo que foi pensado e elaborado durante a disciplina Práticas de Zoologia Aplicada à Educação Básica, associada ao curso de Licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas e que por sua vez, é voltado para às ações dos professores, a fim de facilitar o aprendizado e a interação entre os alunos. Sabe-se que os jogos didáticos atualmente são vistos como uma prática de ensino presente em diferentes níveis escolares, visto que é método que facilita o aprendizado e a compreensão do conteúdo de uma forma lúdica, motivadora e divertida, o que possibilita uma maior relação dos conteúdos com a vida cotidiana. Diante de tais pressupostos, o presente trabalho, foi inspirado no conceito de pesquisa de desenvolvimento que ocorreu no período de novembro de 2016 a março de 2017, na UESB, campus de Vitória da Conquista, BA. Tudo teve início a partir de encontros ocorridos na Universidade e após uma visita a uma escola e conversas com alunos e professores, o tema Reino Animalia foi escolhido para a construção de um material didático. Desta forma, a criação do material didático em forma de jogo, surgiu com base no jogo eletrônico que se disseminou rapidamente pelo Brasil, o Pokémon Go. Assim, nasceu o Pokézoo, um jogo didático confeccionado para auxiliar o professor de Ciências e Biologia na abordagem dos filos do Reino Animalia. A partir da aplicação do jogo com os alunos, o professor será capaz de avaliar se o mesmo conseguiu atingir tais objetivos inicialmente propostos, e se o uso do jogo “Pokézoo” conseguiu proporcionar uma socialização dos conteúdos de zoologia satisfatória.
REPRESENTAÇÕES MIDIÁTICAS EM AMERICANAH: MÍDIA RADICAL ALTERNATIVA A SERVIÇO DO ENGAJAMENTO SOCIAL
Authors: Thibes Luana Caetano
Published: September 2023

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar brevemente o conceito de intelectual engajado, partindo da observação do romance Americanah (2014), de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, e de que forma talintelectual pode utilizar a mídia radical alternativa como veículo para divulgação de perspectivas contrahegemônicas. Para tanto, conta com o aporte teórico de Downing (2004) e Bhabha (2013), além de Chauí (2005) e Santos (2009). Discorre, também, sobre a hipótese da autora nigeriana ter se valido de estratégias de autoficcionalização para compor seu romance, com base em Crosariol (2011) e Carvalho (2009). A partir da perspectiva da protagonista do romance, conclui que a personagem, enquanto intelectual engajada socialmente e reflexo da própria autora da obra, faz uso de veículos midiáticos alternativos para difundir suas opiniões e observações, atuando como produtora de conteúdo alternativo contra-hegemônico.

O feijão-caupi é uma cultura de grande valor nutricional. Possui grande variabilidade genética, ampla capacidade de adaptação e alto potencial produtivo, mas tem o seu potencial genético pouco explorado.O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar à qualidade fisiológica das sementes de vinte genótipos de feijão-caupi, produzidos no Sudoeste baiano. O delineamento experimental foi em blocos casualizados, com vinte tratamentos, sendo quinze linhagens e cinco cultivares, e quatro repetições. Os dados obtidos foram submetidos à análise de variância e as médias comparadas pelo teste de Scott-Knott, ao nível de 5% de probabilidade. Foram avaliadas as características de qualidade fisiológica das sementes: umidade das sementes, teste de condutividade elétrica, teste de germinação, primeira contagem de germinação, porcentagem de emergência, índice de velocidade de emergência, teste de envelhecimento acelerado e umidade das sementes após o envelhecimento. Os resultados demonstraram qualidade fisiológica e alto vigor das sementes.
IDENTIDADE OU IDENTIDADES? UMA DISCUSSÃO SOB O OLHAR DA LITERATURA AFRICANA.
Authors: Santos Aldineto Miranda
Published: September 2023

Compreender as identidades como diversas é compreender a impossibilidade de uma pureza identitária, entendendo a formação das identidades a partir de processos de dominação, resistência e negociação. Nesse processo a literatura, e em particular a literatura africana, surge como manifestação cultural que revela a riqueza das identidades construídas, bem como desvela a necessidade de compreensão da pluralidade cultural no topos Africano, e/ou melhor nas várias “Áfricas” considerando as várias realidades linguísticas, históricas e culturais.

Among the biotic factors that limit plant growth, population size, and reproduction, there is a mass appearance of microscopic parasitic fungi. The aim of the study was to determine the spectrum of the microfungi and the degree of leaf surface infection in the ragwort Senecio umbrosus, i.e., one of the Polish red data book species. In 2014–2016, studies on the diversity and dynamics of microfungi were carried out within its population on White Mt, southeastern Poland, where it grows in xerothermic habitats. During three seasons (6 collection series between May and October), 15 microfungal species were identified in total (1–9 species per one collection date, 9 species in each season). Only Coleosporium tussilaginis was present in all study dates, and it accounted for 30–100% of all records of the microfungi. Three hyperparasites were also identified on C. tussilaginis: Cladosporium uredinicola, Ramularia coleosporii, and Alternaria sp. The other taxa were found five (Boeremia exigua, Leptosphaeria ogilviensis), four (Alternaria sp.), or three times (Ascochyta compositarum, Periconia cookei), but the majority of the microfungi were noted twice or only once, depending on meteorological conditions in a given growing season. Among common species of microfungi, we collected Ascochyta compositarum, which is a new species for Poland. Additionally, we found new fungus/host plant combinations for C. tussilaginis.
Obesidade e cognição

A obesidade é uma doença crônica de caráter multifatorial caracterizada pelo acúmulo de gordura no corpo que é diagnosticada por meio da análise de indicadores, como o Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC) e o acúmulo de gordura na região ventral. Essa condição geralmente é caracterizada por uma inflamação sistêmica crônica de baixo grau que afeta diversos órgãos do corpo e está envolvida em uma série de outras doenças e problemas de saúde que podem aparecer de forma associada a ela. Dentre as principais consequências da obesidade, problemas na cognição são observados em indivíduos obesos de todas as idades, desde crianças até idosos. Indivíduos obesos podem apresentar mudanças na estrutura física do cérebro, neuroinflamação, desregulações hormonais e aumento do processo de estresse oxidativo, o que pode trazer consequências diretas no desempenho ou até mesmo no desenvolvimento cognitivo dessas pessoas. Uma pessoa com cognição prejudicada pela obesidade pode trazer sintomas como, por exemplo, dificuldades no processo de aprendizagem, problemas na memória, dificuldade em atividades que exijam coordenação motora fina e grossa, prejuízos na fluência verbal. Essa situação pode ser ainda pior em crianças e adolescentes, nos quais o cérebro ainda se encontra em processo de desenvolvimento. Apesar das consequências da obesidade na cognição, estudos demonstram que os sintomas podem ser prevenidos ou até mesmo revertidos por meio da adoção de mudanças de estilo de vida, que levam à perda de peso, como a adoção de uma dieta equilibra e a prática de exercícios físicos constantes.
