Textual attractors in literary discourse: a cognitive-poetic reading of Elizabeth Bowen’s “Oh, Madam . . .”
Authors: Kędra-Kardela Anna , Kowalczyk Andrzej Sławomir
Published: March 2023

This article offers a cognitive-poetic analysis of Elizabeth Bowen’s short story “Oh, Madam . . .” (1941), a war-time story set in a London house partly damaged during the Blitz. This literary text includes numerous gaps in the form of ellipsis, dashes, and unfinished sentences, inviting the reader into filling them as a part of reading experience. The analysis critically applies Peter Stockwell’s (Stockwell, Peter. 2012 [2009]. Texture: A cognitive
a
esthetics of reading. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press; Stockwell, Peter. 2020. Cognitive poetics: An introduction, 2nd edn. London and New York: Routledge) concepts of texture, resonance, and textual attractors. We stress the importance of identifying textual attractors in accounting for the dynamicity of the meaning-construction process in Bowen’s story. Arguably, the so-called resonance effect, a part of the reader’s aesthetic experience, results from their cognitive engagement during the process of gap-filling. In addition to that, the recognition of specific attractors enables the reader to grasp the social relations encoded in the text. To explain the cognitive processes involved in the reading of “Oh, Madam . . .”, we propose to expand Stockwell’s list of “features of good textual attractors” by including two additional ones: absence and repetition.
Geistliche Trockenheit bei stationär behandelten Personen mit depressiven und Suchterkrankungen
Authors: Maas Guido Alexander , Maas Charlotte , Büssing Arndt
Published: March 2023

Psychisch erkrankte Personen scheinen häufiger Gefühle geistlicher Trockenheit zu empfinden als unbelastete (religiöse) Vergleichsgruppen. Dies konnte in einer Studie auf Basis der Spiritual Dryness Scale bei depressiven und Suchterkrankten in stationärer Behandlung beobachtet werden. Der folgende Artikel beschäftigt sich mit möglichen Implikationen, die sich hieraus für eine Psychotherapie ergeben können. Es werden zum einen allgemeine Implikationen für den erweiterten klinischen Kontext beleuchtet. Zum anderen wird anhand von zwei ausgewählten psychotherapeutischen Verfahrensansätzen (kognitive Umstrukturierung sowie Akzeptanz- und Commitment-Therapie) exemplarisch vorgestellt, wie sich die Aspekte der geistlichen Trockenheit in die dyadische (Individual-) Psychotherapie von depressiven und alkoholabhängigen Patienten integrieren lassen können. Deren praxisnahe Umsetzung wird anhand von einigen Beispielen deutlich gemacht.

Palabras preliminares: El cine republicano en plano general
Authors: Gubern Román
Published: March 2023

Haciendo un rápido paseo por la evolución de la expresión cinematográfica, el autor se plantea la influencia que los cambios políticos en España tuvieron sobre la producción de películas. ¿Existe un cine republicano? La historia del cine en la España del momento obedece más bien a las necesidades comerciales del nuevo invento y a la influencia de las distribuidoras extranjeras. Este plano general nos permite conocer algunos de los títulos más destacados, sus productores, directores y actores, y los temas que más atraían al público español. Imposible no mencionar el caso de Luis Buñuel como exponente bien diferenciado en medio de este panorama. La guerra convertirá la expresión cinematográfica en un vehículo más para la propaganda ideológica de todas las partes implicadas, aunque los intereses del bando franquista pasaban más por vencer que por convencer.Palabras clave: Cine sonoro, Segunda República, géneros cinematográficos.Abstract: In a rapid approximation to the cinematographic expression, the author speaks about the influence of the political changes in Spain on the production of films. Is there a Republican cinema as such? Really, the History of the Spanish cinema has mainly to do with the commercial necessities of that new invention, and with the influence of the foreign distributers. Thanks to this long shot we know some of the more significant titles of that moment, as well as about film directors and stars, and also the more attractive subjects to the Spanish public. Impossible not to mention the case of Luis Buñuel, a very important exponent of the Spanish Cinema. During the Spanish Civil War, both sides will use cinematographic expression as another vehicle for ideological propaganda, but the fascists had more interest, no in convince, but in to win.Key words: sounded films, Second Spanish Republic, cinematographic genders.

Mold and larvae resistance of wood-based composites incorporating sodium fluoride
Authors: Tascioglu Cihat , Umemura Kenji , Kusuma Sukma , Kose Coskun , Yalcin Mesut , Akcay Caglar , Yoshimura Tsuyoshi
Published: March 2023

The efficacy of particleboards manufactured with sodium fluoride against mold fungi and Hylotrupes bajulus (L.) larvae was tested. Laboratory-size particleboards were manufactured from untreated wood particles with inclusion of fine sodium fluoride (NaF) at the 1, 1.5, and 3% levels relative to total particle weight. Sodium fluoride was introduced as powder during the manufacturing process just before blending resin with wood particles. The laboratory mold test indicated that even the lowest level of retention of NaF with or without leaching significantly reduced mold growth on particleboard surfaces when compared to the untreated control specimens. The increased retention of NaF from 1% to 3% further suppressed mold growth towards lowest levels even on leached specimens. The laboratory Hylotrupes bajulus larvae tests revealed that the particleboard environment with or without NaF is not appropriate for larvacidial activity. While the tested biocide, NaF, tested positive against mold growth on particleboard surfaces, no effect was determined relative to larval deaths.
Determination of lignin concentration in bleaching effluent via Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 method
Authors: Wang Fangfang
Published: March 2023

Kraft pulp and alkali peroxide mechanical pulp were prepared with aspen and wheat straw and bleached with chlorine dioxide, an alkali extraction strengthened by hydrogen peroxide, hydrogen peroxide, or peroxyacetic acid. Eight different bleaching effluents were obtained, and a Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 method was applied to determine the lignin content in each of the bleaching effluents. The visible light spectra indicated that the alkali-soluble lignin and the alkali bleaching effluent could increase the absorbance of Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 at 640 nm, but the acidic soluble lignin and the acidic bleaching effluent did not increase absorbance. Thus, the Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 method applied to alkali bleaching effluents but did not apply to acidic bleaching effluents. An analysis of the pH, particle size, zeta potential, and visible light spectra determination showed the Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 absorbed on lignin particles, which caused the absorbance increase at 640 nm. With the actual measured value of the lignin content obtained via the Klason lignin method, the relative error of the results obtained via the Coomassie brilliant blue G-250 method was less than or equal to 3.8%.

Published: March 2023

The influence of natural protrusion, also known as silica bodies, was studied in relationship to sliding resistance reinforcement in an oil palm fibre-polyethylene composites. Experimental work on oil palm fibres-LLDPE composites (using fibres with and without protrusions) was conducted, which included x-ray microtomography (µ-CT scan), scanning electron microscopy, and degree of grafting analyses. A finite element micromechanical model was then developed using information from the experimental results to simulate fibre pull-out from the matrix. Microscopic observation after mechanical tests of the composites showed crater marks due to silica bodies in contact with the matrix, whereas fibres were uniformly distributed inside the matrix from the µ-CT scan. Likewise, the degree of grafting analysis showed a positive influence of silica bodies as an additional reinforcement to the composites. These were further supported by the modelling results of fibre pull-out, which showed a clear difference between models with and without silica bodies.

Published: March 2023

Large-section boxed-heart square timber is prone to surface and radial cracks during the drying process. A high-temperature setting pretreatment could prevent cracking in boxed-heart timber. The pretreatment process is primarily determined by the preheating time. To determine the preheating time of the test material, a mathematical model for the internal temperature distribution of Mongolian pine (Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv.) boxed-heart square timber in the preheating stage was established by the finite element method. The model viability was verified by tests that showed that the model simulation results were stable and non-fluctuating. For the prediction error of the temperature change, the early-period error was large, while the later predicted values and measured values tended to be consistent. For the prediction error of the temperature distribution, the core-layer error was smallest, while that of the surface layer was greatest. For the prediction error of the preheating time, greater preheating temperatures exhibited greater error, and the minimum error was 10 min, at 90 °C. Overall, the predicted values were close to the measured values and can be referenced for subsequent pretreatment process research.
Simulation of syngas production via pyrolysis-oil gasification – Impacts of operating conditions on syngas properties
Authors: Zhang Zhihai , Mangin Patrice , Larose Sylvain , Delcroix Benoit
Published: March 2023

A model for syngas production from pyrolysis oil gasification was developed, validated, and used in this work to predict the effect of operating conditions on syngas properties. The model consists of a process line that includes units for pyrolysis-oil drying, decomposition, combustion, and gasification processes. The model was validated using experimental data from the literature, showing a good agreement between the results and the reference method. Syngas potential applications were assumed, e.g., for direct use in fuel cells and fuel production. Sensitivity analysis was carried out to evaluate the impacts of gasifying agent, temperature, and the oil moisture content on syngas composition, lower heating value (LHV), and H2:CO molar ratio. For fuel cells applications, gasifying with O2 and air lead to a substantial decrease in syngas LHV. The syngas should be produced at a high temperature. The moisture content in pyrolysis-oil also should be minimized. For fuel production applications, partial O2 can be used to adjust the H2:CO molar ratio. The syngas should be produced at an appropriate temperature around 1000°C. The moisture content in pyrolysis oil should also be selected at 40%.

This study identified elements in a simple homemade gambus from a local crafter using a scientific approach. The gambus was made from geronggang wood (Cratoxylum arborescens), a light Malaysian hardwood with pink sapwood, distinct from the heartwood with brick-red or deep pink. The sound was processed to generate fast Fourier transform (FFT) and time-frequency analysis (TFA) using PicoScope and Adobe Audition software, respectively. The gambus A 1st string (note C4#) displayed a harmonic overtone at the 1st and 2nd octave. The 2nd string (note A3) showed harmonic overtone at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd octave. The 3rd string (note D3#) showed a significant fundamental peak and harmonic overtone at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th octave. The 4th string (note A2#) displayed consistent harmonic overtones at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th octave. The 5th string (note E2) had a harmonic overtone at the 5th octave. Gambus A showed an inconsistent signal in the 6th string (note D2#) with inharmonic overtone at 3.35th and 6.79th overtones. The gambus A 1st to 6th strings are C4#, A3, D3#, A2#, E2, and D2#, respectively. The gambus B 1st to 6th strings are C4, G3, D3, A3, E3, and B2, respectively.
Experimental Dehydration of the Water-Ethanol Mixture by Pervaporation through Membranes Based on Polyvinyl Alcohol: What Conditions for Better Performance?
Authors: Regragui Anissa , Merzouk Nadia , Tarras Faissal , Idrissi Najib Al , Essamri Azzouz
Published: March 2023

Abstract: The separation processes are of paramount importance in the industrial field. The techniques used to obtain separation membranes depend on the type of membrane and the applications envisaged.

Aim: The objective of the study is to focus on the master membrane allowing better pervaporation of the water-ethanol mixture by varying various parameters such as the polymer content, the polyacrylic acid (PAA) content and the operating variables such as the drying temperature and the stay in the oven.

Materials: We fabricated membranes to separate water-ethanol mixtures by the pervaporation process. First, films based on polyvinyl alcohol and acid polyacrylics were prepared using the appropriate solvent (water) with different PAA contents. We then characterized these films using the technique of infrared spectroscopy and the measurement of swelling of these membranes in water / ethanol mixtures. Pervaporation tests were carried out to measure the selectivity and flow of these films with respect to the mixture.

Results: All the membranes exhibit a higher permeation flux than that of pure PVA, especially when the PAA content is high. The selectivity to water of these crosslinked membranes, represented by the water content in the permeate is appreciable.

Conclusion: The addition of PAA to PVA makes possible the improvement of swelling, the flow is improved as well as the water selectivity and the permeability of the membrane which makes the PVA-PAA alloy a simple and effective method to ensure dehydration of the Water-Ethanol mixture.
“In the centre and in the regions”. Features of the campaign to confiscate Church valuables, and the organisation of a schism in Turkestan diocese (1922–1923)
Authors: Ozmitel Ekaterina
Published: March 2023

The article highlights the first period of the Soviet government's systematic struggle with the Russian Orthodox Church using the example of the Turkestan and Tashkent dioceses. It was an organized, tightly centralized campaign that began under the pretext of the need to withdraw all church valuables to help the hungry. The real goal of the campaign was to solve the financial problems of the Soviet state by defeating the Church (confiscation of valuables and organization of the Renovationist schism). In 1922, there were extremely few valuable items in the churches of the Turkestan ASSR, nevertheless, in the summer, with a delay of several months, the expropriation of church values was carried out here. The details of the withdrawal procedure are shown on the example of the churches of Alma-Ata, Tashkent and rural temples. The second goal of the withdrawal campaign – the elimination of the canonical system of church administration and its replacement with renovationist structures – in the Turkestan diocese was achieved by mid-1923. The specifics of achieving this goal were clarified by comparing the local church chronicle with the central plan of the campaign. Thanks to this, it became possible for the first time to explain the logic of the events that took place in the Tashkent in late 1922 – early 1923, and to explain the reasons for the sudden refusal of Archbishop Innokenty (Pustynsky) from the administration of the Turkestan diocese and his departure from Tashkent.
The first All-Russian Congress of egyptologists
Authors: Tomashevich Olga , Anokhina Evgeniya
Published: March 2023

The paper is timed to the 200th anniversary of the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs by J.-F. Champollion and is dedicated to a century-old event - the First All-Russian Congress of Egyptologists in Moscow. The 1920s were a real trial for the young Russian Egyptology: many scientists of both older and younger generations died or left the country; contacts with West European colleagues were broken; there was an acute shortage of specialized scientific literature; and all this developed on the background of a difficult economic situation in the country struggling for survival. The situation can be best described by the words attributed to the People’s Commissar for Education A.V. Lunacharsky: “Currently, the young Soviet Republic does not need Egyptologists”. Undoubtedly, the First All-Russian Congress of Egyptologists became an important moment for the formation of the scientific Egyptological community in the Soviet Russia. It was convened on August 17-20, 1922 on the initiative of the All-Russian Scientific Association of Oriental Studies and the Central Institute of Oriental Studies in Moscow. The meetings of the congress were held in the Museum of Fine Arts (now the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts) and the Moscow Archaeological Society. The events of the congress (list of participants and reports, resolutions) are reconstructed by the authors of the present paper on the basis of available sources. They show that despite all the difficulties, Egyptology in Russia at that time was actively developing branch and an interest in the culture of Ancient Egypt could be seen in the society. The authors also publish a previously unknown letter from the Petrograd Egyptologist Natalia Davydovna Flittner to the founder of the Berlin school of Egyptology Adolf Erman in which she describes the celebrations of the 100th anniversary of the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs in Petrograd and Moscow, and also gives a general description of the development of Russian Egyptology of that time.
The social makeup of Church parishes of Shchyolkovo industrial area of Moscow region in the 1920s as evidenced by documents on the renewal of registration of religious societies, 1923‒1926
Authors: Balyko Timofey
Published: March 2023

The article deals with the topical issue of the social composition of parishes and parish councils of the Russian Church of the 1920s. The importance of this topic is due to the fact that the arguments about the social composition of parishes were actively used by the Bolsheviks, who planted the opinion that the members of the Church are exclusively backward strata of the population and representatives of counter-revolutionary-reactionary circles.Based on archival materials of the re-registration of religious societies initiated by the Soviet authorities in 1922-1923, the author of the article managed to identify meaningful documents reflecting the social composition of the parishes of the temples of the settlements of the Shchelkovsky industrial bush, which was an advanced region of the textile industry in the Moscow province. The workers of this region were not only participants in the revolutionary demonstrations in 1905 and in October 1917, but also the heroes of the first issue of the revolutionary underground newspaper Iskra in 1901. Bolshevik agitation strenuously attributed to the "real proletarians" of such factory districts stable anti-religious beliefs. However, the study of this problem showed that in the religious communities of those settlements of the Shchelkovsky bush, next to which large textile industrial productions were located, there were former ones. Fryanovo Wool-spinning Manufactory Partnership, former. The Partnership of the Gorodishchenskaya Cloth Factory of Chetverikov and a number of other large factories - workers made up a significant part of the active parishioners who acted as founders of religious societies in 1923, and were part of the parish councils. It is also worth noting that the process of re-registration of religious societies coincided with the most acute phase of the Renovationist schism caused by the organization of the Renovationist Council of 1923, which adopted a number of anti-church decisions. The identification - based on documents from local archives - of the names of active believers at the most difficult moment in the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, associated with the attempts of the Soviet government to destroy the Church by the hands of Renovationists, can open additional ways for church historical work on the ground and actualize for the descendants of these people the church past of their surnames in the 1920s.
Cultural and educational work of diocesan departments of the Imperial Orthodox Palestinian society in remote regions of the Russian Empire in the late 19th — early 20th centuries
Authors: Tsys Valeriy , Tsys Ol′ga
Published: March 2023

The article characterizes the cultural and educational work of the diocesan departments of the Imperial Orthodox Palestine Society (IOPS) on the national outskirts of the Russian Empire in the late 19th - early 20th centuries. It is noted that the main form of this work was the organization and holding of Palestinian readings aimed at popularizing knowledge about the Holy Land, the Russian pilgrimage, the activities of the Imperial Orthodox Palestinian Society in the Middle East, as well as publishing literature on relevant topics in national languages. Its deployment dates back to the mid-1890s. and continued until 1917. The western provinces of the Russian Empire were a field of collision and interaction between two civilizations - Catholic (Polish-Lithuanian) and Orthodox (East Slavic). In their confrontation, a local national identity (Belarusian, Ukrainian) was formed, and the work of the IOPS can be considered as one of the tools for involving the local population in solving problems common to the Orthodox world, with the help of which they realized their organic connection with the “Russian world”. The high activity of diocesan departments on the territory of Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova, the popularity of Palestinian readings are revealed. It is concluded that there is no national specificity in the organization and conduct of Palestinian readings by the "Ukrainian" and "Belarusian" diocesan departments of the IOPS. Where the Russian population was in an absolute minority (Poland, Georgia), the activities of the IOPS were aimed at representatives of the diaspora and almost did not affect local residents. In such regions as the Volga region, Siberia, the European North, northwestern Kazakhstan, the activity of the IOPS was linked with missionary work. It is indicated that the diocesan departments of the IOPS have contributed to the Christian enlightenment of the "foreign" population recently converted to Orthodoxy, to the fight against pagan remnants, various superstitions and prejudices. The expansion of the scale of pilgrimage to the Holy Land was noted as one of the consequences of the cultural and educational work of the IOPS.
The Committee of Grand Duchess Elizaveta Feodorovna in the system of public charity during the First World war
Authors: Bukalova Svetlana
Published: March 2023

The participation of the Russian Empire in the First World War necessitated the creation of a system of public care for the victims – soldiers' families, disabled soldiers, orphans. This task was solved by the Supreme Council for the care of families of conscripts. The executive structure of the Supreme Council was the Committee of Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna for providing charitable assistance to the families of conscripts. The article highlights the organizational and financial foundations of the Elizabethan Committee, revealing its spatial structure and main activities. The study was carried out on the basis of materials from the archival fund of the Elizabethan Committee and its periodical. The organizational structure of the Elizabethan Committee included a central body, provincial branches and county commissions. The grassroots level consisted of charitable societies. Hierarchical relations between them were based on the principles of autonomy and subsidiarity. Local branches were headed by governors. The competence of the Elizabethan Committee initially covered the provision of additional assistance to soldiers' families to the state aid, later it included the provision of military invalids and orphans. The priority of labor assistance was declared. The main forms of support were assistance in carrying out agricultural work, establishment of nurseries, opening of orphanages. In the cities, the Elizabethan Committee organized workshops, canteens, and fuel sales. This work was carried out jointly with the local government and charitable organizations. The funds of the Elizabethan Committee were charitable donations and allocations of the Supreme Council. In the second half of 1916, the estimate of the Committee's work exceeded 7.5 million rubles. The conducted research allowed to come to the conclusion that the system of the Elizabethan Committee had a state-public character and can be considered as a precursor of specialized public administration bodies in the social sphere. At the same time, this made it possible to mobilize charitable resources to help the victims of the war.
Potential drivers of spatial distribution of the ghost orchid, Dendrophylax lindenii, in a South Florida cypress strand: a preliminary study
Authors: Pieterson Corrie , Thomas Brenda , Everham III Edwin M. , Bovard Brian , Owen Mike
Published: March 2023

This study examined a population of ghost orchids (Dendrophylax lindenii) in Fakahatchee Strand Preserve State Park in Collier County, Florida, to determine if they exhibit host species preference, vertical stratification, substrate diameter stratification, or a distribution pattern similar to their host plants. Twenty-five ghost orchids were found on three host plant species: 20 (80%) were on pop ash (Fraxinus caroliniana), four (16%) on arthritis vine (Hippocratea volubilis), and one (4%) on pond apple (Annona glabra). Our analysis indicated a statistically significant occurrence of ghost orchids on pop ash relative to other woody plant species in the study area. Although most orchids were found below 3 m from the forest floor, this was not statistically significant when compared to orchids above 3 m. A weak trend (p=0.06) for increasing occurrence was observed in the next to largest (14.1 cm to 17.2 cm diameter at breast height) size class among the five size classes of pop ash in this study. The spatial analyses indicated that both the stems of pop ash and ghost orchids demonstrate non-random clumping on the landscape. In addition, the presence of an individual orchid increases the probability of multiple ghost orchids on a stem. These results further emphasize the importance of pop ash as a host species in Florida’s ghost orchid populations and add to the list of hosts (arthritis vine) in the literature. Continuing to study the vertical position of ghost orchids will be important as climate change has the potential to alter humidity patterns and the occurrence of both low temperature events and hurricanes. Improved understanding of host plant preference, microhabitat requirements, spatial distribution, and continued long-term monitoring of population dynamics are critical for the conservation of the ghost orchid.

és 5 kezdeti befúvás után életjelek hiányában azonnal megkezdjük a
mellkaskompressziót, melyet csecsemők esetében elsősorban körbeöleléses
technikával végzünk. Az ajánlott frekvencia 100–120/perc, a kompresszió és a
lélegeztetés aránya 15 : 2. Gyermekek emelt szintű újraélesztése csapatmunka. Az
algoritmus váza nem változott, továbbra is a legfontosabb a minőségi
mellkaskompresszió. Kiemelt hangsúlyt kapott a potenciális reverzibilis okok
(4H-4T) felismerése és kezelése, a fókuszált ultrahangvizsgálat szerepe.
Újdonságok: ballonos-maszkos lélegeztetés esetén a 4 kezes technika ajánlása,
endotrachealis intubálás után folyamatos mellkaskompresszió esetén az
életkorfüggő lélegeztetési frekvencia. A gyógyszerelésben nincs változás, az
adrenalin újraélesztés alatt a leggyorsabban intraossealis úton adandó. A
spontán keringés visszatérése utáni ellátás döntően befolyásolja a neurológiai
kimenetelt. A betegellátás ekkor ismét az ABCDE-sémán alapul. Fontos célok:
normoxia, normacapnia biztosítása, hipotenzió, hypoglykaemia, a láz elkerülése
és célzott hőmérséklet-menedzsment alkalmazása. Orv Hetil. 2023; 164(12):

A baleseti keringésmegállás kezelése
Authors: Kassai Tamás , Baranyi Krisztina
Published: March 2023

A baleseti keringésmegállás patofiziológiája, kialakulása és lefolyása kissé
eltér az egyéb körülmények között bekövetkező keringésmegállásoktól, ezért
ellátása számos speciális kiegészítést kap a hagyományos újraélesztéshez képest.
A baleseti keringésmegállás miatt végzett újraélesztés során még nagyobb
prioritást kap a reverzibilis okok kezelése és megszüntetése, mely akár még a
mellkaskompressziók megkezdése előtt szükséges lehet. A baleseti
keringésmegállást szenvedett betegek ellátására még fokozottabban igaz, hogy az
egyes lépések sikere a korai időzítésen és a jól szervezett túlélési láncon
múlik, melynek része az emelt szintű prehospitális ellátás, majd a speciális
baleseti központokban végzett további terápia. Összefoglaló közleményünkben
részletezzük a baleseti keringésmegállás patofiziológiáját – mely segít az egyes
ellátási elemek okának megértésében –, valamint az újraélesztés során
alkalmazandó legfontosabb diagnosztikus és terápiás lépéseket. Kitérünk arra,
hogy melyek a baleseti keringésmegállások leggyakoribb okai, és milyen megoldási
stratégiák szükségesek ezek gyors elhárításához. Orv Hetil. 2023; 164(13):

Effects of Starch Type and Concentration on the Physicochemical, Rheological and Sensory Properties of Bream (Abramis brama L.) Surimi-Based Gels Enriched with β-1,3/1,6-D-Glucans
Authors: Bortnowska Grażyna
Published: March 2023

The influence of starch type (waxy rice starch, WRS; tapioca starch, TS) and starch concentration (0-6%) on the physicochemical, rheological and sensory properties of surimi-starch gels (SSGs) enriched with b-1,3/1,6-D-Glucans was investigated. The main interactions of myofibrillar proteins were hydrophobic ones and disulfide bonds. The steady shear tests revealed that SSGs behaved as shear thinning fluids with yield stress and exhibited thixotropic properties. The SSGs showed temperature-dependent behaviour with activation energies: 27.5-9.04 kJ mol–1 and 27.5-6.47 kJ mol–1 regarding samples prepared with 0-6% WRS or TS, respectively. The structural differences between the SSGs were quantified in terms of the quality factor (Q), whose values at 10 Hz were in the following ranges: 6.64-20.3 and 6.64-29.1. The overall desirability index (ODI) values showed that the panelists most approved of the SSGs prepared with 5% TS and 6% WRS. The results presented in the work may be useful for producers and scientists involved in the design of pro-health foods.

There are many reasons for switching from a traditional diet to a plant-based diet. This paper focuses on the four most prevalent reasons for switching diet: economical, health-related, ethical and ecological. The potential benefits and threats of a plant-based diet are also presented.
3D Printers for Food Printing – Advantages and Drawbacks of Market Ready Technical Solutions
Authors: Harasym Joanna
Published: March 2023

The article takes a closer look at the basics of food 3D printing techniques in order to point out the real problems of this technology, especially through the perspective of the latest technical solutions (3D printers) available on the market in 2022. Food 3D printing technique is attracting the interest both in research and on the market. In the case of food, the most common technique used is paste extrusion, in which the material is placed in a syringe-shaped container and extruded while the print head moves and puts on the layers one by one, reproducing the final shape. Although research has been done on other additive processes, such as binder jetting and selective laser sintering using powdered food products, it is still debatable whether these processes are feasible for food printing.

Authors: Jachimowicz-Rogowska Joanna , Sowińska Lesya , Winiarska-Mieczan Anna , Kolasa Katarzyna , Fabjanowska Julia
Published: March 2023

Preparations influencing the condition of hair, skin and nails constitute an important group of dietary supplements. They contain active substances that positively influence condition and appearance of skin. The aim of the study was to identify the most frequently used dietary supplements for hair, skin and nails in the form of tablets, and to verify the effects of the active ingredients declared on the basis of the literature. The most common ingredients in hair, skin, and nail supplements were biotin, zinc, copper, vitamin C, and niacin. Most of the selected dietary supplements were multi-ingredient, and the content of ingredients in one dose of supplements varied greatly. Almost all the ingredients contained in the analysed dietary supplements have an effect confirmed in the literature; one of those (PABA) has no proven effectiveness. There is a need for more research into hair, skin and nail nutritional supplements and into consumer choices.
Baverage Container Deposit Return System in Slovakia: Insights after One Year of Its Introduction
Authors: Jarossová Malgorzata A. , Gubíniová Katarína
Published: March 2023

Every year, consumers buy more and more beverages packaged in disposable PET bottles and aluminium cans. Most of this packaging is used only once and also very often pollutes the environment due to inappropriate consumer behaviour. Deposit return systems for bottles and aluminium cans play an important role in preventing such situations, offering consumers a financial incentive, a deposit that motivates them to return used packaging. The purpose of the article was to describe consumer and company insights related to the new deposit return system for PET bottles and aluminium beverage cans in Slovakia, based on the authors’ own research and secondary research. Furthermore, the authors also wanted to show the solutions of some companies that try to facilitate to consumers the process of returning disposable packaging.
Risk Analysis of Berry Harvesting in a Blueberry Plantation
Authors: Michniewicz Wiesław , Pogorzelski Grzegorz , Lesiów Tomasz
Published: March 2023

The purpose of the study was to conduct a risk analysis of the operation of a highbush blueberry plantation based on the FMEA method. The research was based on the information acquired from two private blueberry plantations differing in location (Sokolniki, Dybów) and acreage size (0.45 ha and 4 ha). It was pointed out that the greatest threat to both plantations, and thus to the quality of the product, turned out to be ensuring proper fertilization and protection from diseases and pests (risk index: 126). In addition, in the case of the first plantation, the location of the plantation (147), cutting and shaping of bushes that have a significant impact on plant development (120) and protection from wild birds (112) were of great importance. Similarly, plantation location, cutting and bush formation (162), yields, commercial quality of the harvest, and plantation location (112) were diagnosed as high risks for the second plantation. The most critical risks to blueberry quality occur at the first link in the logistics chain, i.e. the agricultural producer.
