Management of professional education focusing on the teaching of the Slovak Language as a Foreign Language in the context of emigration processes
Authors: Onušková Mária , Pisoňová Mária
Published: February 2024

Society in Slovakia is currently determined by upheavals that are linked to global events. Slovak education is most significantly affected by the war in Ukraine. It is connected with the emigration of foreigners to our territory and the subsequent inclusion of pupils with a different language in primary and secondary schools. Based on this extraordinary situation, there is a need to respond to it flexibly and efficiently. Appropriate management mechanisms based on the principles of school management and educational technology are required with a focus on ensuring adequate preparation of Slovak language teachers for teaching pupils whose mother tongue is other than Slovak. Effective tools for solving the situation has not been created by the Slovak education system. The fulfillment of this challenge is the necessary implementation of an analysis of the high-quality educational needs of teachers and the subsequent implementation of its results for the creation of a suitable educational platform, either as part of undergraduate training or further professional education of teaching staff.

The presented study is therefore focused on the description of the theoretical foundations of the term professional education of Slovak language and literature teachers with an emphasis on the teaching of the Slovak language as a foreign language. The results of empirical research identifying and analyzing the educational needs of the concerned teaching staff through adequate research methods are included. At the end of the scientific study, the key determinants of the creation of specific educational programs intended for the education of pupils with a mother tongue other than Slovak will be presented.
Implementation of moral education by teachers of foreign languages
Authors: Ferková Štefánia , Zacharová Zlatica
Published: February 2024

Teaching a foreign language is often associated with the development of communicative competence, interpersonal and social development, but also with the development of intercultural competence, aesthetic sensitivity, etc., as when learning a second language, the topics of literature, geographical and cultural differences with respect to the language and culture of the countries speaking the language are discussed. FL is the subject which can provide pupils with the greatest scope for developing the various components of education, as is documented by a review of the literature and teaching methods used abroad to teach a FL. A total of 342 teachers from Slovakia participated in the survey, 55 of them FL teachers. In our research, we focused on three areas, namely, 1) finding out the conditions for implementing moral education in primary school, 2) finding out whether foreign language teachers implement the moral component of education depending on their own moral setting, and 3) academic dishonesty in the context of assessing dishonest practices in pupils and academic dishonesty in teachers during their studies. Teachers participated in the research voluntarily and could refuse to complete the last section. 1) The results show that, FL teachers (N = 55) rate the need for moral education as the most important, but they are mostly concerned with intellectual (M = 4.09), physical (M = 3.56) and environmental education (M = 3.47) in the application of the different components of education. For better application of moral education, they would need adequate and quality training (67.3%) and methodological materials (78.2%). 2) it was found that teachers consider themselves as the basis of moral behaviour (M = 4.7) and at the same time, explicit rules set by them are important for them (M=3.75). Teachers do not trust in the moral behaviour of children and society (M = 2.25), which was also reflected in the fact that the treatment of moral topics is mainly done by the method of explanation (85.5%) and the method of example (80%). 3) Teachers rated the factor of gaining one’s own advantage (M = 4.27) significantly more negatively (N2 = 45; Z = -5.225; p = 0.0001) than the factor of cooperating with others (M = 3.24). On the other hand, FL teachers (N3 = 44) reported their academic dishonesty in terms of occurrence most frequently as a form of cooperation (M = 2.68). Relatively, they defined getting unearned benefits with external help (M = 2.16) or in a utilitarian manner (M = 1.72). We discuss ways to help develop moral education and support teachers.

Mapping the Parameter Space of Simulated Lotteries
Authors: Gere István
Published: February 2024

This study presents an econophysics based approach to the study of lotteries. By treating lotteries as complex systems we analyse the guiding dynamics of real-world lotteries. We found that the growth of the jackpot, that can be won, between two successive draws is proportional to its preceding value. This growth is best described as a linear function with two parameters a and b reflecting foundational player pool sales and the excitement generated by the current jackpot respectively. A computer simulation considering additional parameters (such as the price of a ticket: s, and the format of the lottery: p) is used to study the statistical features of simulated lotteries covering a vast parameter space. This approach enables us to construct a detailed map of how various parameters influence lottery behaviour by examining the statistical characteristics of the simulated lotteries. The findings emphasize the need for thoughtful pricing strategies in real-world lotteries and suggest that simulations can assist organizers in making informed decisions.
Socio-Environmental Overview of The Main Sugarcane Producing Municipalities in Sergipe Between the Years of 2001 and 2022
Authors: De Lima Rafael Rodrigo Ferreira , De Sousa Inajá Francisco , Teixeira Antônio Heriberto de Castro , Villwock Ana Paula Schervinski
Published: February 2024

Objective: Analysis of the socio-environmental situation of the main sugarcane producing municipalities in the state of Sergipe, in the period between 2001 and 2022.
 
Theoretical Framework: Sugarcane cultivation represents an important economic role for communities and countries that produce this commodity. In this scenario, Brazil emerges as the main sugarcane producer on the planet and, along with the benefits arising from the agro-industrial sugarcane production chain, there are socio-environmental problems arising from the anthropization of the landscape and natural resources allocated in the production of co-products of this culture that need to be reviewed in light of climate emergencies and the demands of different social actors.
 
Method: The research has an exploratory nature, using scientific articles available from Science Direct and Capes Periodical Platform and secondary data collected on the Mapbiomas and Terrabrasilis platforms.
 
Results and conclusions: The results showed the dissonance between the global analysis of environmental degradation indicators, such as fires and deforestation, and the data relating to each municipality analyzed. And it was concluded that there is an urgent need to re-analyze public policies for monitoring and controlling socio-environmental indicators in order to contain the anthropization processes caused by sugarcane cultivation.
 
Implications of the research: This research allows us to clearly understand the socio-environmental dynamics caused by sugarcane cultivation in the main sugarcane producing municipalities of Sergipe, in order to contribute to a realistic debate on the current stage of environmental degradation and on the construction of the near future due to social and environmental demands arising from changes in the climate.
 
Originality/value: No analysis was found on the set of municipalities studied based on the main agricultural crop produced, which implies a scenario of exploration that is not only reflective and political but also open to new work that can be developed in each of these municipalities separately, or together, with the purpose of bringing quality of life and conscious and environmentally appropriate development to the communities in this group of municipalities and to the state of Sergipe.

The article discusses four criteria for assessing the adequacy of the most well-known image recognition methods. Verification of two of these criteria is carried out by empirical analysis using the example of the most well-known signal recognition methods, such as DTW, DDTW, as well as methods based on the Wavelet transform and Fourier transform. Two artificial sets of images are used as recognition objects, formed by uniformly shifting the base image both horizontally and vertically. In general, the goal of this research is to develop a new method for extracting recognition features using the example of the image of the State Emblem of the Republic of Azerbaijan. In the context of this study, a verification of a previously proposed signal recognition algorithm is carried out based on the artificial family of curves, for which the most accessible and acceptable method of displacement is established: horizontally or simultaneously horizontally and vertically.

Authors: Mulyadi Ismet Hari , Shabrina Annisa Intan
Published: February 2024

Dalam menentukan strategi lintasan pahat yang tepat pada proses pemesinan mengefreis cenderung mengabaikan aspek perpindahan pahat yang disebabkan oleh bentuk lintasan. Selama ini bentuk lintasan yang diterapkan berbentuk melingkar (circular) ataupun membelok dengan sudut belok 90o. Sedangkan geometri yang diproduksi adakalah berbentuk runcing sehingga diperlukan sudut belok yang runcing. Semakin runcing sudut belok maka akan menyebabkan pahat tertahan pada sudut lintasan dalam waktu yang lama yang akan berdampak terhadap kenaikan konsumsi energy listrik. Dengan mempergunakan metoda Taguchi dengan rancangan orthogonal array L-9, pengaruh bentuk lintasan dibandingkan. Adapun bentuk lintasan yang diamati adalah lintasan yang memiliki sudut belok runcing yaitu yang memiliki sudut belok 30o dan 60o. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan bahwa kedua sudut belok ini hanya memiliki perbedaan dalam konsumsi energi listrik sebesar 7%. Walaupun begitu, melalui penelitian dapat memberikan gambaran bahwa sudut belok lintasan pahat memiliki pengaruh terhadap perubahan konsumsi energi listrik pada suatu proses mengefreis.
Pengembangan Standard Operating Procedure Penggantian Tire pada Raw Mill Pabrik X
Authors: Yuliandra Berry , Algayri Modi
Published: February 2024

Cement production requires several tools to process raw materials. One of the processes is raw mill, where one of the components involved is the Tire Roller. Tire Roller serves to grind the mixed material into fine quality. The replacement process is scheduled when the tire's service life is over to keep the production process running. Completeness of SOP is still one of the deficiencies in the tire replacement process at Factory X. Preliminary studies show that the standard time for each activity needs to be added to the existing SOP. This study aims to complete the SOP for the tire replacement process through three stages: (1) Interviews with various related parties, both directly and indirectly; (2) Examination of the completeness of existing SOPs; and (3) Calculation of the standard time for each activity. The development of SOP for replacing tire rollers in raw mills was successfully carried out by adding several activities and standard times for each activity. This result is expected to increase the efficiency of the raw mill maintenance process.
Effect of Cutting Speed On Cutting Force and Temperature in Turning Process
Authors: Yanda Hendri
Published: February 2024

In recent years, the applications of finite element method (FEM) in metal cutting operations have proved to be effective in studying the cutting process and chip formation. In particular, the simulation results can be used for both researchers and machine tool makers to optimize the cutting process and designing new tools. Many researches were done on two-dimensional simulation of cutting process because the three-dimensional versions of FEM software required more computational time. The present work aims to simulate three-dimensional orthogonal cutting operations using FEM software of Deform-3D. Orthogonal cutting finite element model simulations were conducted to study the effect of cutting speed on effective-stress, strain and temperature in turning process. AISI 1045 was used as work material and cutting tool was TNMA 332 (uncoated carbide tool, SCEA = 0; BR = -5; SR = -5 and radius angle 60o). The emphasis on the designed geometries are limited to the changes in the cutting speed between 100 m/min and 450 m/min. The machining parameters of feed rate and depth of cut were kept constant at 0.35 mm/rev and 0.3 mm respectively. The simulation results show that by increasing the cutting speed causes a decrease in cutting force and effective-strain. On the other hand, increasing in cutting speed will increase effective-strain and temperature of the chip formed.

Biodiesel is an oil produced from vegetable oils or animal fats. Peanut is one of the vegetable that can be used to produce biodiesel due to its high vegetable oil content. This research was conducted to investigate fatty acid characteristics of biodiesel produced from peanut and perfomance of a diesel engine which is fueled by mixture of peanut biodiesel and diesel fuel. Biodiesel was produced by some processes namely degumming, free fatty acid content testing, esterification and transesterification. It was produced 1450 ml biodiesel per 10 kg peanuts.  Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry device was used to determine fatty acid content of peanut biodiesel which consists of 52.77% of oleic acid, 16.59% of palmitic acid and 10.63% of behenic acid, respectively. Four mixtures of peanut biodiesel and diesel fuel were created, namely B0 (pure diesel fuel) , B5, B10, B20 where index number is percentage of biodiesel in the mixture. These mixtures were applied to fuel an engine diesel to observe engine perfomances with variation of load and speed on engine. The best engine perfomance result from experiments was found using B20 with spesific fuel consumption (SFC) value is 0.175 kg/kWh at 30 psi of load and 1250 rpm engine speed, the air-fuel ratio (AFR) is 15,26 at 20 psi of load and 1500 rpm engine speed and termal eficiency is 46.37 percent at 30 of load and 1250 rpm engine speed.

Published: February 2024

The interactions between private economic interests and public institutions have played a fundamental role in the historical deployment of the ski tourism industry in the Catalan Pyrenees. Most ski resorts have endured significant economic crises that have forced their closure or that have been resolved thanks to the contributions from the State until they ended up in the hands of the autonomic government. The importance that the public Administration has achieved must be seen as part of an induced program of tertiarization propelled by urbanistic speculation which is the main governmental project for the high mountains’ areas. The analysis of this relationship, in a moment of global warming and growing social resistance, raises several questions about the future of the sector and the districts where it has been implemented.

The objective of this work is to determine the relevant management factors for the Magical Town of Tapijulapa, Mexico, from the perspective of its stakeholders. Various researchers have proposed factors for the management of tourist destinations in theoretical models of competitiveness, given the influence they exert on the performance of their activity. Indeed, in this tourist destination, its Steering Committee does not know what these factors are and the role they play in designing strategies that contribute to its permanence in the market. The study is carried out under a quantitative methodological approach, with a non‑probabilistic sample of 200 tourism providers. A hypothesis test was made based on analysis of structural equations. The results show that marketing management has the greatest impact on management factors, followed by environmental management, that would lay the groundwork for establishing lines of action that contribute to their competitiveness and long‑term sustainability

Midwifery policy is important in regulating services, and its significance cannot be overstated. Despite the ongoing efforts in formulating policy, there remains a need for further analysis. This is because evidence-based research in midwifery serves as a foundation for enhancing the professionalism of the service practices. Bibliometric analysis of publications pertaining to midwifery policy is absent, leaving a gap in understanding trends and concepts. Therefore, this research aimed to determine trends in the number of publications, and visualisation of the relationship on the topic of midwifery policy through bibliometric analysis. The method used systematic reviews with the stages following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) diagram. Scientific publication data related to midwifery policy was retrieved through dimensions.ai from 2010 to 2022 and the data was analysed using VOSviewer. The results showed that first, there was an annual exponential growth in the number of publications and citations on the topic. Second, there were 224 items, 8 clusters, and 10047 links with a strength of 63352 on the topic of midwifery policy. Third, trends of research related to the topic were focused on hospitals, behaviour, and framework. Fourth, the research related to policy were topics with a low-density category, namely professional development, registration, and public health. Research results could identify trends and novelty in midwifery policy and recommend directions for further analysis.

Published: February 2024

Global issues on energy and fuel for sustainable development industrial and household system are a major concern in the world economy. Biofuel is a renewable energy source that can potentially be a replacement for fossil fuels. The utilization of algal biomass or seaweed organic matter is a good source of ethanol, methanol, biobutanol, and biodiesel. Malaysia’s waters recorded approximately 400 species of macroalgae, with several species found to be a potential source for biofuel application. An expedition study for the seaweed natural resources was carried out in December 2016 in coastal areas in Johor and Melaka, Peninsular Malaysia. Green seaweed, Ulva, large brown seaweed, Sargassum, and Gracilaria (red seaweed) are found in the selected study areas and these genera are listed as biofuel resources in the literature. The design of offshore mariculture system specifically for seaweed farming for biomass production for biofuel. The prototype was constructed and deployed in Bidong Island, Terengganu in 2016 before the monsoon. At the end of the monsoon period, the prototype is still stable in situ. Selected seaweed species with biofuel potential were trial cultivated on the system and the growth performance of the particular species was monitored. The suggested species for biofuel are Gracilaria and Ulva, while Kappaphycus is targeted for the food industry. Gracilaria and Ulva were also studied for their bioremediation potential and suitability to grow on the system. Gracilaria spp. was able to grow on the system, indicating the designed system is feasible for biomass production of seaweed. Further, the selected seaweed species can function as biofilters for the nutrients in the environment and acceptability for a wide salinity range meaning that the system can be applied in different locations such as estuary, inshore, or offshore. Seaweed biofuel and its subsequent advantage related to pollution-free energy generation is of critical importance.

Анеуплоидия – это изменение числа гомологичных хромосом в диплоидном наборе в клетке. Наиболее распространенными анеуплоидиями, совместимыми с живорождением, являются анеуплоидии по хромосомам 13, 18, 21, X и Y. В настоящее время для диагностики частых анеуплоидий возможно использование быстрого, надежного и недорогого метода количественной флуоресцентной полимеразной цепной реакции (КФ-ПЦР). В результате исследования данным методом 1192 пренатальных и 195 постнатальных образцов в 15% случаев были выявлены различные хромосомные аномалии. Наиболее часто детектируемой анеуплоидией являлась трисомия по хромосоме 21 – 9,7%. Доля трисомии по хромосоме 18 составила 2,0%, трисомии по хромосоме 13 – 0,3%. Из аномалий половых хромосом обнаружены синдром Клайнфельтера в 1,1% и синдром Шерешевского-Тернера в 0,8% случаев. Отмечено уменьшение доли анеуплоидий, сопровождающихся тяжелыми врожденными пороками развития, среди постнатальных образцов. Высокий уровень гетерозиготности по STR-маркерам, использованным в исследовании, позволил получить результат во всех образцах по всем проанализированным хромосомам. Наиболее предпочтительно применять метод КФ-ПЦР для пренатального обследования на поздних сроках беременности при подозрении на частые анеуплоидии у плода, для подтверждения хромосомных аномалий при выявлении анеуплоидий методами неинвазивного пренатального тестирования и для постнатальной диагностики несбалансированных хромосомных аномалий.

Aneuploidy is a numerical chromosome abnormality in a diploid set in a cell. The most common aneuploidies observed in case of live birth are aneuploidies on chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X, and Y. At the present moment, it is possible to use a fast, reliable, and cheap method of quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) for diagnosing frequent aneuploidies. The analysis of 1192 prenatal samples and 195 postnatal samples using this method detected various chromosomal abnormalities in 15% of cases. The most frequently detected aneuploidy was a trisomy 21 - 9.7%. The trisomy 18 rate was 2.0%, trisomy 13 - 0.3%. Among the anomalies of the sex chromosomes, Klinefelter syndrome was found in 1.1% and Turner syndrome in 0.8% of cases. There was a decrease in the proportion of aneuploidies accompanied by severe malformations in postnatal samples. The high level of the STR markers heterozygosity used in the study made it possible to obtain results in all samples for analyzed chromosomes. It is most preferable to use the QF-PCR method for prenatal examination of patients with suspected frequent fetal aneuploidies during late pregnancy or to confirm chromosomal abnormalities in case of aneuploidy detection by noninvasive prenatal test and for postnatal diagnosis of unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities.

Варианты нуклеотидной последовательности гена FZD4 обнаружены у 10 пациентов (17,2%) из 9 неродственных семей, три варианта выявлены впервые. Внутригенные делеции и однонуклеотидные замены идентифицированы с одинаковой частотой. Особенностями пациентов с выявленными вариантами нуклеотидной последовательности гена FZD4 являются ранняя манифестация, асимметричное поражение, прогрессирующее течение и аутосомно-доминантное наследование.

Background. Familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR) is a rare hereditary genetically heterogeneous disease characterized by impaired retinal angiogenesis and variable clinical manifestations. The FZD4 gene is the most studied of those associated with FEVR. Molecular genetic examination of a large cohort of patients with FEVR in the Russian Federation was not carried out. Objective: to study the spectrum of variants of the nucleotide sequence of genes in patients with FEVR in the Russian Federation, to identify clinical and genetic correlations. Methods. 58 patients (31 girls, 27 boys) with FEVR aged from 3 weeks to 17 years were examined in an interdisciplinary manner at the Helmholtz National Research Centre of Eye disease and the Research Centre for Medical Genetics. All patients underwent an in-depth ophthalmological examination. The molecular genetic examination was carried out by direct Sanger sequencing and high-throughput sequencing methods. Results. Variants of the nucleotide sequence of the FZD4 gene were found in 10 patients (17.2%) from 9 unrelated families, of which 3 were identified for the first time. Single-nucleotide deletions and substitutions were identified with the same frequency. The features of patients with identified variants of the nucleotide sequence of the FZD4 gene are early manifestation, asymmetric lesion, progressive course and autosomal dominant inheritance.

The development of technologies for extracting metals from waste is an urgent task. In this study, a poorly studied technology for the extraction of metals from electronic waste by microscopic algae, based on the biosorption method, was considered. The efficiency of the technology is determined both by the parameters of the biosorption process (properties and dose of biomass, temperature, pH, contact time of the adsorbate with the biosorbent), and the chemical composition of the solution obtained during the leaching of prepared electronic waste and containing metals. In the course of the study, the presence of functional groups in the biosorbent that could enter into chemical interaction with the recovered metals, the chemical properties of metals in the test solution were identified, and the leaching of the sorbed metals from the biosorbent was assessed. Microscopic algae of the species Chlorella sorokiniana, Chlorella vulgaris, Chlorella spirulina, and the genus Scenedesmus sp. were used as a biosorbent. The metal was sourced from mobile phone/smartphone screens and computer monitors. Analysis of the component composition of screens and monitors showed that it is represented by more than 10 different metals belonging to the group of basic metals and 7 metals belonging to the group of rare earth, rare and precious metals. Using the method of IR spectroscopy, the presence of the following functional groups in the cell walls and organoids of microscopic algae was proved: amino groups, hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. The results of experimental studies have established a mixed mechanism of biosorption, including physical sorption and chemisorption. As evidence, we used data on the partial leaching of sorbed metals from microscopic algae after the completion of the process.

The production of artificial soils – products of solid-phase fermentation of municipal solid waste – is one of the main areas of processing waste from megacities containing organic substances and is a “green” alternative to their incineration or burial. The possibility of using products of solid-phase fermentation of waste for growing medicinal plants was studied using the examples of mountain savory (Satureja montana L.), common basil (Ocimum basilikum L.), marshmallow (Althaea officinalis L.), oregano (Origanum vulgare L.). It was revealed that the optimal germination of plants occurs on the artificial soils “Klasmann Substrates Select” and “Grunt ECO” and it is comparable to the control soil of field crop rotation.The changes in the biochemical parameters of plants (enzyme activity, chlorophyll content) grown on soils under normal conditions, under the influence of heavy metals and at low temperatures are shown. High chlorophyll content was noted in all studied plants, however, in mountain savory grown on the “Veltorf” substrate, destructive phenomena were revealed, expressed in a decrease in the content of chlorophyll a with a simultaneous increase in the content of chlorophyll b. The activity of catalase and acid phosphatase enzymes in the studied plants is within normal limits. The effect of unfavorable factors – low temperature and heavy metals – leads to an increase in enzyme activity, which is a sign of the formation of adaptation. When assessing the germination of plants of various species and their biochemical parameters, it was found that the domestic soil of the Grunt ECO company is optimal for growing medicinal plants and can be used for medicinal plant growing purposes.

The article is devoted to an urgent problem in the field of environmental safety – the legal regulation of renewable energy in Russia at the level of federal legislation, as well as trends in the field of program normative regulation in the context of long-term planning until 2050. The method of special normative regulation in the field of renewable energy chosen by the legislator is determined by the directions of state regulation in the area under consideration. The basis for long-term programmatic legal regulation is the combination of traditional and renewable energy, which is necessary for the country’s energy security. On the other hand, a serious problem of legal regulation has been identified: at the level of federal legislation, there is a legal gap in the issue of the relationship between the concepts of “energy resource” and “non-renewable energy sources”, which is the reason for finalizing the current legislation. The result of the study is recommendations to reflect in the legal regulation of renewable energy, which is programmatic and long-term in nature, not the principle of priority of renewable energy sources (RES), but the principle of combining traditional and renewable energy and its development, taking into account the interests of the country’s energy security. Thus, the actual preservation of the priority of traditional energy and the development of energy based on renewable energy sources within the framework of regulatory long-term planning based on state support determine the main direction of developing the country’s environmental safety system for the coming decades.

In modern conditions, each state strives to ensure its economic security, thereby trying to create the necessary conditions for stability and sustainable development. In recent years, the country’s energy security, which is a key component of economic security, has become increasingly important. The relevance of the study lies in the fact that in modern socio-economic conditions of the country’s development it is necessary to develop the energy sector, promptly identify and neutralize existing and emerging threats to Russia’s energy security, which contributes to a gradual transition to a green economic course. The purpose of the work is to study the theoretical aspects of energy security, study its current state in the Russian Federation, as well as develop measures to facilitate the transition to a green economic course. When conducting the research, methods such as the dialectical method of cognition, monographic research, horizontal and vertical analysis, statistical methods, the method of comparing and summarizing information, as well as the method of tabular presentation of information were used. Russia’s energy security is gradually developing, as evidenced by the increase in some indicators and the decrease in others, while there is a need for further development and additional government regulation in order to achieve a higher level of energy security. Reorientation of the energy sector to the use of renewable energy sources is an important strategic task for Russia. Increasing the capacity of generating facilities that operate on the basis of renewable energy sources helps improve the quality of energy supply to the population, reduce environmental pollution and increase the level of energy security. The authors studied the theoretical aspects of energy security. An assessment of the current and future state of energy security in the country was carried out. A conclusion is made about the need for structural changes in the energy sector in order to achieve planned energy security indicators.

In the present work, we study different physicochemical properties related to LADME processes of volasertib, a Polo-like kinase 1 inhibitor in advanced clinical trials. Firstly, the protonation equilibria, the extent of ionization at the physiological pH and pKa values of this drug are studied combining spectroscopic techniques and computational calculations. Secondly, the binding process of volasertib to the human serum albumin (HSA) protein is analyzed by fluorescence spectroscopy. We report a high affinity to HSA and their pharmacokinetic implications are discussed accordingly. Additionally, volasertib is encapsulated in an alginate/montmorillonite bionanocomposite as a proof of concept for an oral delivery nanocarrier. The physical properties of that nanocomposite as well as volasertib delivery kinetics are analyzed.
