Kelurahan Sekaran, Kecamatan Gunungpati, Semarang mempunyai luas wilayah 153.425 Ha dengan jumlah Penduduk 9.259 jiwa (Januari, 2019). Kelurahan Sekaran menunjukkan tingkat pertumbuhan penduduk, perkembangan industri kafe dan warung, serta usaha kuliner yang melesat karena adanya kampus UNNES yang selalu meningkat jumlah mahasiswanya. Hal ini menguntungkan bagi perekonomian masyarakat, tetapi di sisi lain juga membawa dampak negatif bagi lingkungan. Salah satu dampak negatif yang terjadi berupa bertambahnya volume limbah minyak goreng bekas (minyak jelantah). Ini terjadi karena masyarakat dan para pedagang membuang limbah minyak jelantah ke lingkungan. Di sisi lain, jika minyak jelantah ini dipakai berulang-ulang untuk memasak sehingga dapat mengakibatkan keracunan dalam tubuh. Oleh karena itu, perlu penanganan yang tepat dalam mengatasi permasalahan minyak jelantah dan mengubahnya menjadi produk bernilai ekonomis. Hal tersebut dapat dilaksanakan dengan berpedoman pada 3R (Reduce, Reuse dan Recycle). Solusi untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan tersebut yaitu melalui pelatihan dan pendampingan khususnya bagi ibu-ibu PKK Kelurahan Sekaran melalui program pengabdian kepada masyarakat. Kegiatan ini bermanfaat untuk konservasi lingkungan yaitu mengatasi pencemaran akibat pembuangan minyak jelantah dan mengubahnya menjadi produk bernilai ekonomis sabun cuci tangan cair yang ramah lingkungan sekaligus media protokol kesehatan untuk pencegahan penularan covid-19.

Usaha Mikro Kecil dan Menengah (UMKM) merupakan salah satu penggerak utama perekonomian di Indonesia. Menurut Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS) jumlah UMKM mencapai 64 juta. Angka tersebut mencapai 99,9% (data Kementerian Koperasi dan UKM RI) dari keseluruhan usaha yang beroperasi di Indonesia. Oleh karena itu harus dikelola dengan baik agar dapat terus berkembang. UMKM sebagian besar bergerak di bidang makanan di Desa  Langenharjo, Kecamatan Plemahan Kabupaten Kediri. Berdasarkan diskusi awal dengan pelaku UMKM, ada masalah pemasaran dan legalitas (Ijin Usaha dan Sertifikat Halal). Segi pemasaran masih konvensional buka toko di rumah masing-masing dan belum ada yang menjual secara online karena mereka tidak mengetahui bagaimana cara membuat Platform digital melalui e-commerce. Secara hukum UMKM perlu ijin dan Sertifikat Halal untuk menjamin produknya dan semua UMKM belum mengetahui bagaimana cara atau prosedur dalam mengurus sertifikat halal produknya. Permasalahan yang dihadapi pelaku UMKM tersebut menjadi pemikiran sangat mendesak diperlukan peran akademisi untuk melakukan pengabdian kepada masyarakat. Dengan pengabdian ini diharapkan dapat membantu pelaku UMKM untuk mengatasi masalah yang selama ini belum bisa dipecahkan. Tim pengabdian akan berusaha untuk membantu dengan melakukan pelatihan dan pendampingan pelaku UMKM. Pelatihan meliputi materi strategi pemasaran dan promosi, prosedur pengajuan ijin UMKM dan prosedur pengajuan Sertifikat Halal. Dengan pelatihan diharapkan pelaku UMKM dapat memperoleh tambahan pengetahuan tentang strategi pemasaran baik secara offline maupun online, prosedur mengajukan ijin UMKM dan prosedur pengajuan Sertifikat Halal. Kegiatan dilanjutkan pendampingan, pelaku UMKM sebagai mitra akan dapat membuat sendiri akun di media sosial dalam bentuk Facebook, Instagram, dan website. Platform digital melalui e-commerce dapat menjangkau pasar yang lebih luas jika dibandingkan penjualan konvensional. Platform e-commerce memungkinkan pelaku usaha dapat terhubung langsung dengan konsumen secara cepat dan luas bahkan hingga melewati batas negara. Sebagian besar konsumen pun kini lebih memilih platform digital sebagai sarana menemukan produk yang dicari. Harapannya semua UMKM sudah memiliki platform digital tersebut pada saat pendampingan selesai. Selain itu pelaku UMKM dapat mengurus sendiri ijin usaha UMKM dan sertifikat Halal melalui pendampingan dari tim pengabdian.

Published: March 2024

Education is considered very important in increasing human cognitive, affective and psychomotor potential. However, there are still many people who do not have access to education, especially in Pemalang Regency. This happens because the community's economic condition is still weak, educational service facilities are minimal and geographical conditions are very far apart even though the Government has implemented 12 years of compulsory education. There is data on access to education through equality education for 4,277 students with only 54 tutors, so it is still very lacking. This has an impact on the low quality of learning outcomes. The aim of community service is to provide training or assistance to tutors in Pemalang Regency in implementing E-PKBM as distance learning for equality education. The methods used are lectures, discussions and training or mentoring. The data obtained was processed descriptively. The results of this training activity show that the tutor has gained an understanding of the role of E-PKBM in the learning process and the tutor has understood how to use existing E-PKBM features to make learning easier.

Published: March 2024

Objective

Patients with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) with inadequate growth hormone levels are often correlated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the potential mechanism of how GHD influences liver function remains obscure. In the present study, we aim to perform hepatic metabolomics in Lewis dwarf rats, which were the standard congenital isolated GH-deficient rat, to evaluate the characterizations of hepatic metabolic profiles and explore their relations with liver functions.

Methods

Lewis dwarf homozygous (dw/dw) rats at 37 weeks (five females and five males), and Lewis dwarf heterozygous (dw/+) rats at 37 weeks (five females and five males) were analyzed in our study. Body lengths and weights, liver weights, serum alanine transaminase (ALT), and serum aspartate transaminase (AST) were measured. ELISA and RT-qPCR were used to assess IGF-1 levels in serum and liver, respectively. The non-targeted metabolomics was performed in the livers of dw/+ and dw/dw rats. Differential metabolites were selected according to the coefficient of variation (CV), variable importance in the projection (VIP) > 1, and P < 0.05. Hierarchical clustering of differential metabolites was conducted, and the KEGG database was used for metabolic pathway analysis.

Results

The body weights, body lengths, liver weights, and IGF-1 levels in the serum and liver of dw/dw rats were significantly decreased compared with dw/+ rats. Dw/dw rats exhibited more obvious hepatic steatosis accompanied by higher serum ALT and AST levels. Hepatic metabolomics showed that a total of 88 differential metabolites in positive ion mode, and 51 metabolites in negative ion mode were identified. Among them, lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) 16:2, LPC 18:3, LPC 22:6, fatty acid esters of hydroxy fatty acids (FAHFA)18:1 were significantly decreased, while palmitoyl acid, dehydrocholic acid, and 7-ketolithocholic acid were significantly increased in dw/dw rats compared with dw/+ rats. These seven differential metabolites were significantly associated with phenotypes of rats. Finally, KEGG pathway analysis showed that the arginine and proline metabolism pathway and bile secretion pathway were mainly clustered.

Conclusion

Lewis dw/dw rats with congenital isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD) showed liver steatosis and abnormal liver function, which could be potentially associated with the distinctive hepatic metabolic profiles.
Desmaterialización y crisis económica ¿Caminos paralelos? Valoraciones a partir del estudio del caso de la UE-15
Authors: Alonso Fernández Pablo , Regueiro Ferreira Rosa María , Doldán García Xoán Ramón
Published: March 2024

En este trabajo se investiga la evolución del consumo de recursos materiales en los países de la Unión Europea-15 (UE-15) en los últimos 20 años, con el objetivo de analizar si en ellos existe desmaterialización y que sectores la lideran. Como indicador de consumo material se utiliza la huella material, ya que indica todos los recursos que requiere una economía. Utilizando los datos de la huella material y el PIB se propone un modelo que permite estudiar la existencia de desmaterialización en la UE-15. Los principales resultados muestran que la desmaterialización solo ocurre de forma coyuntural tras la crisis de 2008, recuperándose posteriormente el acoplamiento entre el PIB y la huella material.

Taxonomic updates of Cheilanthes Sw. (Pteridaceae) in Peru, with a conservation assessment for four endemics
Authors: Rivera Soledad , León Blanca , Arakaki Mónica
Published: March 2024

El género Cheilanthes en su concepto más reciente incluye tres clados distribuidos en Sudamérica, África y Australasia. Trabajos previos para el Perú registraron 23 especies, sin embargo, los avances en sistemática molecular han resultado en la segregación de ocho de ellas en al menos tres géneros. En este trabajo, se reconocen 15 especies en la flora peruana en base al estudio de 459 ejemplares de herbario y campo, y la evaluación de caracteres morfológicos usando 131 especímenes. Las afinidades entre los linajes propuestos en este trabajo son consistentes con la reciente hipótesis filogenética, donde las especies de Cheilanthes en el Perú serían integrantes de dos clados, el Sudamericano y el Australásico-Sudamericano, y los caracteres de importancia taxonómica serían: la forma de las escamas rizomáticas y tipos de indumento de la fronda (escamas, microescamas, escuámulas y pelos). Encontramos que el género Cheilanthes estaría presente en 20 departamentos del Perú, la mayoría de las especies con amplia distribución en las regiones centro-sur Andinas, cuatro especies con el estatus de endemismo. Mientras que C. cantangensis, C. lonchophylla y C. obducta están pobremente representadas en la región norte. Las dos primeras especies son consideradas endémicas y son categorizadas como En Peligro (EN), y otras dos como de Preocupación Menor (LC). Además, se presenta una clave taxonómica.

Published: March 2024

Despite the high diversity of vascular epiphytes (VE) reported in Peru, there is no updated checklist that is in line with the new taxonomic delimitations and the new concepts of epiphytes. In this study, we update the list of VE in Peru, based on a bibliographic search and visits to local herbaria. Species names were updated according to the World Flora Online, their presence in the EpiList was confirmed, as well as their altitudinal distribution and distribution by department, risk category, and endemism. Finally, the epiphyte coefficient was estimated. We found 2462 species, belonging to 18 orders, 25 families, and 249 genera. The families with the highest richness were Orchidaceae (1606), Bromeliaceae (201), and Piperaceae (139 spp.); 85% of the species were in the EpiList (2088 spp.). The department with the highest richness was Amazonas (709) and the lowest were Ica and Tacna (2 spp.). The altitudinal range with the highest richness is between 1501 – 2000 m (649); 689 species are endemic and 220 are in some risk category; the epiphyte quotient is 13.12. This update represents an approximate 40% increase, positioning Peru as the third country with the highest VE diversity. A more comprehensive list was obtained, in line with the concept of epiphytism, highlighting the need to include 384 species in the EpiList, which would help complement the global list of VE worldwide.

Dissipation kinetics, residue level, and risk assessment of chlorantraniliprole in Rosa roxburghii and its residue removal using household decontamination technique
Authors: Zhang Xuefei , Jiang Zhaochun , Han Lei , Wu Xiaomao
Published: March 2024

Rosa roxburghii (R. roxburghii) is edible and medicinal fruit rich in vitamin C. Residues and potentially ecological risks of chlorantraniliprole (CAP) in the R. roxburghii orchard have aroused concern considering its extensive use for controlling oriental fruit moth, aphid, and whitefly of R. roxburghii. In this study, an effective UPLC–MS/MS method was developed for quantitation of CAP in R. roxburghii and soil using modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe (QuEChERS) dispersive solid-phase extraction with average recoveries of 73.89–96.63% and a relative standard deviation of <15%. Dissipation dynamics and terminal residue trials under the field conditions in 2021 and 2022 showed that half-lives of CAP in R. roxburghii (2.64–2.70 days) were shorter than those in soil (3.58–3.80 days), and its terminal residues in R. roxburghii and soil were 0.034–0.818 mg kg-1 and 0.003–0.015 mg kg-1, respectively. Long-term dietary and soil ecological risk assessments indicated that the risk quotient was significantly less than 100%, meaning that the use of CAP on R. roxburghii at the recommended dosage was safe to consumers and soil ecology system, and that maximum residue limits (MRLs) and safe pre-harvest intervals of CAP in R. roxburghii were recommended as 0.7 mg kg-1 and 14 days, respectively. Removal experiments of CAP residues from R. roxburghii using simple household processing approaches exhibit that 2% baking soda water had the highest removal efficiency (56.04–60.33%). This study provides the basic data for establishing MRL, the safe and rational use of CAP in R. roxburghii production as well as the household decontamination prior to consumption of R. roxburghii fruits.
Formation of a life cycle management system for personnel discipline at the enterprise
Authors: Sharokhina Svetlana , Shevchenko Tatyana , Aleksandrova Olga , Erofeev Alexander
Published: March 2024

The authors of the article argue that traditionally discipline is considered as the rules of behavior for an employee in an enterprise. In this regard, the personnel must comply with corporate standards, requirements, comply with job descriptions and follow the work schedule. However, the employee's attitude to discipline is not unchanged and depends, first of all, on the level of development of his professionalism. Consequently, it is possible to single out the stages of the life cycle of the discipline, which are in close connection with the stages of the life cycle of the personal and the stages of the life cycle of professionalism. The authors point out that the possibilities of changing and developing the discipline in the process of changing and developing personnel and professionalism remain outside the field of scientists' attention. The discipline is considered exclusively from a legal point of view. Based on the study of the theoretical base in the article, the stages of the life cycle of the enterprise personnel and the life cycle of professionalism were developed. Using the classifications obtained in the study, the following goal was achieved — the stages of the life cycle of the discipline were determined, their combination with similar cycles of the enterprise personnel and the employee as a professional to solve specific problems at different levels of discipline management. To accomplish the tasks set, general scientific methods were used: analysis, analogy, classification, typification. The result of scientific work was the formation of a system for managing the life cycle of an enterprise discipline, which consists of specific tasks formulated by a common block for personnel, professionalism, and discipline at each stage of the life cycle. Therefore, the article has a scientific novelty, which consists in highlighting the stages of the life cycle of the discipline and including it in the process of managing the discipline by stages of tasks for personnel and professionalism at each stage of their life cycle.
Directions for improving control procedures over the movement of financial resources in companies with a branch network on the example of OOO «Gazprom transgaz Samara»
Authors: Frolova Irina , Kharitonova Daria , Fattakhov Timur
Published: March 2024

The article deals with the problems of controlling the flow of financial resources in large companies with a wide branch network both inside and outside the country. The authors use the example of one of the largest fuel and energy Russian companies to consider the processes of financial resources movement between local branches, regional representatives and the parent organization. One of the representatives of holding structures that include companies with a branch network in the extractive industry is the Gazprom Group, which includes the parent organization represented by PJSC Gazprom and many subsidiaries engaged in oil and gas production, processing and transportation. The authors note that the implementation of financial control within such companies is a rather complex process, which contributes significantly to the financial stability of the holding company as a whole. The relevance of the work lies in the fact that the lack of an effective system of control over the movement of financial resources in companies with a branch network can affect not only the activities of the entire holding, but also the economy of the whole country. The authors present the movement of financial flows within the company, identify weaknesses and develop recommendations to improve control procedures. It is concluded that the development of the Unified system of control over the movement of cash resources in companies with a branch network can solve a number of previously identified problems of the existing control system. Despite the existing deficiencies in the control system, the proposed solutions seem simple enough to implement and will contribute to their elimination.
Personal flexibility and psychological well-being under multiple employment
Authors: Diomin Andrey , Kireeva Oxana

Multiple employment is a new and insufficiently studied object of psychological research, it has ambiguous social and psychological characteristics. The purpose of the article is to compare the levels of personal flexibility and psychological well–being under single and multiple employment, to assess the socio-demographic factors of possible differences between single and multiple employment groups. Additionally, the task is to assess the level of precarity of multiple employment. The total sample was 748 people, average age 31,03 years (min — 20, max — 45), 48,13 % men, 51,87 % women. A subgroup of persons with more than one place of work (multiple employment) included 150 subjects. The employment status of the respondents and their
socio-demographic characteristics were identified using closed-ended questions in the questionnaire. Personal flexibility and indicators of work instability (precarity) evaluated using the precarity index (Diomin A.N.) and the scale of flexibility in the professional sphere (Diomin A.N., Kireeva O.V.). Psychological well-being in the professional and labor sphere was measured using two indicators: the forced employment (the scale of forced employment from the questionnaire «Psychological structure of employment») and perception of career development barriers (scale «Development Barriers» from the Russian adapted methodology «My Vocational Situation» by J. Holland, D. Gottfredson, P. Power). It was found that inclusion in additional employment occurs more often in the case of a short-term relationship with the employer, as well as when there is an opportunity to use information and communication technologies in the labour process. Education, financial status and level of main employment precarity do not influence inclusion in multiple employment. Personal flexibility in the labour sphere also does not affect this process. Multiple employment is accompanied by a lower level of experiencing barriers to career development compared to those who have only one job, thus demonstrating a higher level of psychological well-being of this category of workers. Probably, they consider multiple employment as a resource of adaptation to the labour market.
State-corporate crimes and human rights violations: an essay on the symbiotic relationship between states and corporations
Authors: Ferreira Letícia Gracielle Vieira , Oliveira Cíntia Rodrigues de
Published: March 2024

Abstract In this essay, we seek to expand the understanding of state-corporate crimes that violate human rights by approximating the literature on state-corporate crime with the field of organizational studies. We argue that corporate crimes that violate human rights are produced and reproduced with the state’s participation in the governance gaps established by globalization in a symbiotic relationship that enhances their normalization. Our argument advances toward unveiling the problem as a configuration resulting from a deliberately organized and historically constituted articulation based on power relations, which aims to guarantee a social order centered on maintaining capitalist interests in which the exploration of life, death, and violence are normalized.
Estilo cooperativo ou competitivo de gerenciamento de conflitos? Efeitos no compartilhamento de informações e no desempenho de cooperativas agropecuárias
Authors: Oliveira Renata Mendes de , Beuren Ilse Maria
Published: March 2024

Resumo Este estudo examina a influência dos estilos de gerenciamento de conflitos, tanto cooperativos quanto competitivos, no compartilhamento de informações e, por sua vez, deste no desempenho organizacional. Examina-se também a mediação do compartilhamento de informações na relação entre os estilos de gerenciamento de conflitos e o desempenho organizacional. Os efeitos dos estilos de gerenciamento de conflitos foram analisados no nível intragrupo em um campo que pressupõe cooperação por meio de uma survey realizada com profissionais que atuam em cooperativas agropecuárias. Para a análise das 91 respostas válidas, utilizou-se modelagem de equações estruturais por mínimos quadrados parciais (PLS-SEM). Os resultados indicam relação entre estilos de gerenciamento de conflitos e compartilhamento de informações, que é positiva para o estilo cooperativo e negativa para o estilo competitivo. Além disso, foi observada relação positiva entre compartilhamento de informações e desempenho organizacional. No entanto, não se verificou um efeito mediador do compartilhamento de informações na relação entre os estilos de gerenciamento de conflitos cooperativo e competitivo e o desempenho organizacional. Com base nos resultados, conclui-se que o estilo cooperativo de gerenciamento de conflitos promove o compartilhamento de informações e melhora o desempenho organizacional. O mesmo não foi constatado para o estilo competitivo de gerenciamento de conflitos nas cooperativas pesquisadas. Isso amplia as discussões sobre os possíveis benefícios dos conflitos nas organizações, contrastando com as abordagens sobre seus efeitos maléficos no desempenho organizacional.
Cynical fan: telling the truth shamelessly
Authors: Souza-Leão André Luiz Maranhão de , Ferreira Bruno Rafael Torres , Moura Bruno Melo
Published: March 2024

Abstract The aim of the current study is to assess how fans structure their fannish based on discussions about the insertion of political agendas in media products, which is a recurring behavior observed in the entertainment industry in recent times. Based on the analysis of Star Wars fan’s interactions about the recent introduction of characters representing political identities in the saga, the study addressed the Foucauldian concept of subjectivation through the manifestation of truths, by adopting his archaeogenealogical method. Two moral agencies resulted from this analysis, namely: the innovation evaluated by Star Wars fans concerning the insertion of new representative characters in the saga and the adequacy such changes need to meet, although remaining in compliance with the established form of the saga canon. Both agencies reflect the concern with maintaining the franchise’s status quo rather than with the political agenda. The current study has evaluated the courage to tell the truth as a cynical practice committed to perpetuate its own subjectivity by ruling other truths.
Aceitar ou recusar órgão doado para transplante: o dilema do Dr. Jonas

Published: March 2024

Resumo O caso apresenta o dilema enfrentado pelo Doutor Jonas, médico responsável pela decisão de aceitar ou recusar um rim para transplante do paciente Carlos. O médico é norteado pela racionalidade e pela ciência, quer não apenas o melhor para seu paciente, como também manter seus bons índices de sucesso em transplantes. Carlos está ansioso por “voltar à vida” com o transplante, livrando-se da terrível rotina de diálises ao longo de cinco anos na fila de espera por um rim. Com a morte de Sebastião, um rim fica disponível para Carlos. No entanto, trata-se de um doador com 68 anos de idade. Doutor Jonas hesita em aceitar o órgão não ideal para seu paciente de 40 anos. O caso promove a discussão de processos de Julgamento e Tomada de Decisão (JTD), especialmente a fuga da racionalidade por meio de heurísticas comportamentais simplificadoras e os consequentes vieses delas advindos. O caso foi desenvolvido para ser usado em disciplinas de JTD ou gestão na área de Saúde e Healthcare, com destaque para o papel das pessoas na prestação de serviços, em programas de pós-graduação lato ou stricto sensu. Com a discussão do caso, espera-se que os alunos desenvolvam habilidades para estruturar processos de decisão e evitar armadilhas comportamentais comuns.
