Formalin and Borax Content in Snacks Food: Literature Study

Abstract

Background: Consuming unsafe food can endanger the health and lives of consumers, both for children and adults. Hazardous chemicals such as formalin and borax as food additives are becoming increasingly common and are often found both in snacks and in foodstuffs. According to WHO, it is estimated that 2 million people die each year and 1.5 million of them are children. The purpose of this study was to see and compare the borax and formalin content of several research results.

Methods: This research method was a literature review that aims to compile, tabulate and compare research results, then summarize the entire research. The study search was carried out through an accredited journal site (google scholar) with as many as 20 articles.

Result: The results of the full text review of the article were 20 articles that had been reviewed. Then, determined according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 12 articles were obtained. Of the 12 articles studied, 5 articles were found which stated that snacks contained borax, 4 articles contained formalin, and 3 articles did not contain borax and formalin.

Conclusion: Based on research that has been studied starting from the characteristics, influencing factors, health impacts, and contamination from the content of borax and formalin, it is necessary to have an understanding of how to choose food products that are safe from formalin and borax.
Cowgirl poetics: Writing women in rodeo
Authors: Thatcher Christina
Published: August 2022

Rodeo is both a sport and a cultural phenomenon in which the myth of the cowboy and the American West are lived out in the arena. And just as long as the sport has been alive, cowboys have been writing poetry about it (Bell, 2020). However, poetry that acknowledges the complex history of women in rodeo is still largely absent. As a poet, rider, and long-time rodeo fan, I have been working on a set of poetic biographies which I hope will help fill this gap. In this self-reflexive article, I explore the process of writing biographical poems which attempt to capture the dual role that female rodeo riders must play as both women and competitive athletes. For context, this article opens with a brief history of women in rodeo before discussing the absence of poetry written by and about them. Two poems I have written about famous female rodeo riders are then used to discuss how poetic biographies – as well as ekphrasis, segmentivity, and metapoetics – can uniquely represent women’s experiences in rodeo. At the centre of this article is an attempt to understand what it means to be a female rodeo rider and how poetry might help to document their experiences.
Dubliners: Mapping the sportscape in the creative literature of Dublin writers
Authors: Daly Gráinne
Published: August 2022

The spatial turn in literary studies has resulted in a greater focus on the roles of space, place, and geography on the page. Intrinsic to discussion on literature is its relationship with space, place, and culture. It follows that the relationship between sporting culture and literature is one in which the representation of space and place are key players. This research interrogates the geography of sports sites in the creative literature of Dublin writers. It considers sporting spaces as those places in which people gather in pursuit of play or for the consumption of sport. It seeks to examine the ways in which sporting spaces are implicated in the politics of memory, and how they serve as literary embodiments of memorial consciousness. Looking at a selection of representations of sports sites, this paper seeks to examine the literary elision of cultural remembrance and sporting space. This work aims to map Dublin using the coordinates of its literary sportscape and to further deconstruct the sportscape in an attempt to understand the significance of its architecture for creative writers. It asks what the implications are for creative writers who pitch the coordinates of sports sites to the page. Much has been written on sport in Irish society and on the sociological aspects of Irish literature. There is, however, a lack of critical research into the relationship between Irish sport and creative writing. This paper, in its attempt to examine the dialogues between sports sites, memory, and Irish literature, is a new contribution to the field.
‘The Fantastics’, or what we can learn from historical fiction
Authors: Peterson Scott D.
Published: August 2022

In this article, the author illustrates the value of a historical narrative that provides readers with a lived experience based on carefully researched fiction. In particular, this practice-based research sought to answer the question, “What would it be like to attend the 1922 World Series alongside the sports journalists who were there to cover the games?” To research this article, the author read biographies of sports journalists who covered the World Series that year, along with their reports of the games. To add further historical detail, the author made use of newspaper accounts by other sports journalists, then used practice-led research to produce a novel as a creative response to the research question. Perhaps not surprisingly, the research led to insights about the nature of practising sports journalism in the early twentieth century. Another insight generated by the research revealed uncharacteristic errors and other anomalies that allowed the author to question the integrity of some of the players in the series. Given that there were no video or audio recordings of the series, this research fills that gap by bringing the sports journalism of a century ago to life through the writers who were present at the games.

Youtubers indígenas brasileiros: interfaces entre cultura e educação
Authors: Fialho Lia Machado Fiuza , Mendes Márcia Cristiane Ferreira
Published: August 2022

Objetiva-se identificar os conteúdos educacionais/culturais veiculados em canais de youtubers indígenas brasileiros. Realizou-se uma pesquisa virtual sobre canais de youtubers indígenas brasileiros na rede mundial de computadores com os descritores “youtubers” e “educação indígena”. Foram localizados 15 canais no YouTube produzidos por youtubers indígenas. A análise considerou os conteúdos acerca da educação e da cultura indígenas, bem como a maneira como esses conhecimentos eram disseminados no ambiente virtual. Identificaram-se três categorias temáticas: músicas e literatura; cotidiano; e política. Estas explicitavam as diversas formas de vida indígena, valorizando suas artes e culturas, desmistificando estereótipos preconceituosos e fortalecendo a luta pelo reconhecimento da história e dos direitos indígenas. Constatou-se que os canais no YouTube são importantes veículos para propagação, valorização e preservação da cultura indígena, inclusive possibilitando, no âmbito educativo, o melhor conhecimento da diversidade cultural, fortalecendo uma prática multicultural com aprendizagens mais significativas.

Published: August 2022

Este artigo é resultado de uma pesquisa que se propôs compreender quais são as possibilidades da construção da identidade étnico-racial no curso de Magistério. Para tal, dialoga-se com três mulheres, negras e normalistas egressas de uma instituição secular localizada na cidade de Muzambinho, Sul de Minas Gerais. Por meio de suas narrativas, buscou-se entender rupturas, possibilidades e conquistas de direitos a partir da formação adquirida. História oral foi a principal abordagem de pesquisa. Os seguintes procedimentos também foram utilizados: análise de fotografias, consulta de documentação escolar no acervo da instituição, revisão de literatura. Os resultados alcançados apontam que as normalistas negras constroem a sua identidade étnico-racial em um ambiente formativo silenciador que é orientado ideologicamente por valores pautados na branquitude.
Confluências afro-pindorâmicas: por uma formação humana contra-colonialista
Authors: Dantas Luís Thiago Freire
Published: August 2022

Neste artigo, pretende-se pensar como o colonialismo atua na formação humana, seja organizando o pensamento para um “mundo ordenado”, seja condicionando o ser humano para um distanciamento da natureza. Essas duas situações serão problematizadas a partir de uma confluência entre as teses de Antônio Bispo dos Santos, Denise Ferreira da Silva e Davi Kopenawa com a intenção de pensar-se um mundo outrem em que o ser humano esteja em harmonia com o cosmo. Com isso, o interesse é enunciar uma formação humana contra-colonialista.
Cotas raciais na Universidade: estudo de caso sobre o acesso à Educação Superior em uma Instituição Federal
Authors: Savi Claudinéia Lucion , Bernartt Maria de Lourdes , Mello Nilvania Aparecida de
Published: August 2022

Neste texto, objetiva-se refletir sobre o processo de implantação da Lei Nº 12.711/2012, a qual dispõe sobre o ingresso nas universidades federais e nas instituições federais de ensino técnico de nível médio, especialmente no campus Pato Branco, da Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR). Para isso, recorre-se à revisão, à análise documental e às produções acadêmicas sobre as categorias elencadas para este estudo: “Direitos Humanos”, “Política de Cotas Raciais” e “Ações Afirmativas”, mediante análise qualitativa. Os resultados demonstram que a efetivação da referida lei assegurou o acesso aos cursos superiores, mas não necessariamente a permanência dos estudantes na Educação Superior. Conclui-se que não se obteve a plena eficácia legal, pois assegurar apenas o acesso à Educação Superior, sem as demais garantias à permanência digna dos estudantes cotistas, à luz dos dados obtidos, não parece ser efetivo.
Relações étnico-raciais e suas produções na área da Educação: uma análise na plataforma SciELO
Authors: Silva Brunna Alves , Ustra Sandro Rogério Vargas
Published: August 2022

Neste artigo, apresentam-se resultados de uma revisão bibliográfica de produções científicas sobre relações étnico-raciais no âmbito da Educação Básica publicadas na plataforma Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). Sob uma ênfase qualitativa, procurou-se compreender as abordagens para a temática em 26 artigos selecionados para a análise. Observou-se um predomínio de produções voltadas a políticas afirmativas e à formação de professores com maior produção entre os anos de 2017 e 2018. Por meio da Análise de Conteúdo, destacam-se os elementos contidos nos resumos que permitiram configurar as seguintes categorias: ascensão, ausências, desconstruções, fontes de subversão, formação e perspectivas. A reflexão sobre essas categorias aporta importantes contribuições à formação inicial de professores.
Inclusão de pessoas negras e de saberes afrodiaspóricos em Universidades brasileiras: a diversidade epistêmica como estratégia
Authors: Mendonça Érika de Sousa , Gominho Filho Amilson de Carvalho , Melo Ana Letícia Cordeiro de
Published: August 2022

Este artigo discute como a diversificação no perfil de ingressantes em Universidades brasileiras tem provocado tensionamentos políticos acerca da racialidade, bem como, em diálogo com autores afrodiaspóricos e decoloniais, reflete acerca das bases epistemológicas que permanecem privilegiadas na produção de conhecimento nesses espaços. Observou-se, a partir de uma revisão integrativa de literatura, que a inclusão racial promovida, principalmente, pelas políticas de ação afirmativa, não é acompanhada de reformas estruturais, do ponto de vista epistêmico, pedagógico e metodológico, de modo a acolher a ontologia do estudante negro, com a inclusão de saberes e de expressões afrodiaspóricas. Nessa direção, considerou-se a Universidade, também, como um espaço desalojante para essas existências, mas que pode abrigar insurgências negras, bem como ventilar possibilidades de incentivo a uma atividade intelectual, de fato, representativa e emancipadora.
A obra infantil de Monteiro Lobato: do racistês ao pretuguês
Authors: Pereira Anamaria Ladeira , Pereira Camila Santos
Published: August 2022

Este trabalho apresenta uma análise bibliográfica de 15 livros infantis de Monteiro Lobato a partir de uma perspectiva antirracista. Como base para as argumentações, os estudos sobre relações raciais, sexismo e branquitude, desenvolvidos por diversas intelectuais negras, entre elas Lélia Gonzalez, Grada Kilomba, Nilma Lino Gomes e Conceição Evaristo, permeiam o texto visando transgredir as formas mais tradicionais de reflexão científica. O rigor teórico, contudo, não deixa de ser traçado nestas linhas em que urgentes indagações driblam o silenciamento e se expõem. Conclui-se que instigar novas concepções de realidade e confrontar um país racista faz parte de uma educação comprometida com o desmantelamento das injustiças e da indiferença destinadas às populações negras e indígenas.
Wishful thinking: processos de significação no discurso da crise de aprendizagem de organizações multilaterais
Authors: Rochadel Olivia , Hostins Regina Celia Linhares
Published: August 2022

Neste artigo, analisa-se o discurso da crise de aprendizagem nos documentos publicados por organismos multilaterais: Banco Mundial, Comissão de Educação da ONU, Unesco e Unicef, entre 2013 e 2021. Com fundamento na Teoria de Redes Políticas de Stephen Ball e na Análise Crítica do Discurso de Norman Fairclough, identificou-se que a crise anunciada transita, em perspectiva interescalar, entre a ideia de um fenômeno global, justificado por problemas locais, centrado na agência do professor e do aluno. Trata-se um discurso retórico, impregnado de wishful thinking (falácias de esperança), destacando-se: a escola e os professores são os culpados pela crise; as organizações têm soluções para reduzi-la; o enfrentamento requer parcerias envolvendo governos, comunidade escolar, terceiro setor e setor privado, sob liderança das organizações. Os discursos estruturam-se em um Ciclo Estratégico Persuasivo – comoção, sedução, promessa e venda – para convencer leitores e organizar os atores da política educacional em torno da governança em rede.

RESEARCH ON THE DYNAMIC RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN IMPORT AND EXPORT TRADE ON URBAN-RURAL INCOME GAP, CHINA
Authors: Ning Geng , Jie Wang , Lin Mei
Published: August 2022

Since the reform and opening up, China has adopted the policy of "multilateral trade", which has led to rapid economic development and increasingly close international cooperation, but also created the problem of unbalanced development between urban and rural areas. This paper analyzes the dynamic relationship between import and export trade and urban-rural income gap by constructing indicators related to import and export trade and urban-rural income gap and using VAR model, the results show that: there is a long-term equilibrium relationship between import and export trade and urban-rural income gap, and this relationship is volatile, which shows that import and export trade can narrow the urban-rural income gap in lags 1, 3 and 4, and increase the urban-rural income gap in lags 2 and 5. The volatility of the relationship is increasing and then decreasing, and the effect is gradually decreasing.

A Professional Opinion on the Delta AY.4.2 Variant: A Global Threat to Humanity
Authors: Singh Lami , Abdul Ahad Hindustan , Pavan Kumar Bandaru , Madhusudhan Vadde
Published: August 2022

The present work aims to raise awareness of the new Corona Virus (CoV) variant, Delta Virus AY.4.2, among the general population. Scientists have found a mutation in the Corona Virus variant known as the Delta Virus. This literature review has been conducted in which the study proposes that it has given rise to the new strain of the CoV, AY.4.2, which has evolved from a super-spreading variant, called the Delta Virus, that binds and invades the body’s cells of the patient. The variant, or the sub-strain, has been detected in at least 24 countries now, according to World Health Organization Epidemiological statistics, including countries like the United States, India, the United Kingdom, Israel, and Russia. The Delta plus variant, which is the new mutant variant, has much better competitive survival chances than the other variants. According to scientists and researchers, AY.4.2, this CoV variant, has a faster onset of spread and infection. This variant has similar signs and symptoms to those of the Delta Virus and the CoV. If any symptoms happen to appear in any person, they are advised to consult a doctor, get themselves tested for COVID-19, and isolate themselves until they are recovered. Researchers conclude that after determining the fatality and potential severity of the variant, it is recommended that the public maintain social distance in crowded places while also taking precautionary measures to avoid meeting the virus. If any symptoms happen to appear in any person, they are advised to consult a doctor, get themselves tested for COVID-19, and isolate themselves until they are recovered.
Identity and Ownership of Education in Africa as Enlightened by African Aboriginal Philosophy
Authors: Munyoki Mwinzi Dr. Joseph
Published: August 2022

The systems of education in the world have adopted many philosophies of education that are either skewed toward change or committed to conservancy. African philosophy and African philosophy of education form an activity and a process which is context-sensitive, whereby the relativity factor defines the peculiarity of thinking about education. However, alien philosophies have permeated the systems of education in Africa. The fulcrum of this treatise is to initiate thought which is necessary to avert this contemporary situation facing education theory, policy, and practice in Africa by interleaving African ontology and epistemology to augment the systems of education. Additionally, this treatise brings to the frontline the essence of African thought in education. This treatise underlines that education that teaches the learner about learning is insufficient, because the focal point of such education is to draw its attention only to the essentials for the longevity of an alienated pedagogy itself as well as to perpetuate the supremacy of foreign influence.

Tagore's Political Philosophy with Special Reference to Nationalism: General Overview
Authors: Arya Ashok , Kumar Naresh
Published: August 2022

We have to understand the relevance of Rabindranath Tagore's thoughts on radical nationalism in this background. We have to explain how nationalism has played a constructive role in all spheres – social, economic, cultural, political and ideological – and how radical nationalism has led us to struggle that as humanity reached the edge of the world-village. When radical nationalism seems to be holding him back, how two decades after liberalization and globalization we are today Brexit, Trump, Marik Paine, China's expansionist attitude, Syria crisis, alchemy problem, Ukraine-Russia problem, protectionism and environmental facing the scenario of running away from responsibilities. Rabindranath Tagore has probably never been so relevant.

Published: August 2022

Aim: To study of Circle of Willis both morphologically and radiologically and its variations in the branching pattern of the Circle of Willis and to correlate it clinically. Introduction: The circle of Willis (CoW) is an anastomotic arterial network on the base of the brain. Its major role is to provide efficient collateral circulation to cerebral and cerebellar tissue to prevent ischemia, and subsequent transient ischemic attack or stroke. The circle of Willis (CoW) is a vascular network formed at the base of skull in the interpeduncular fossa. Its anterior part is formed by the anterior cerebral artery, from either side. Anterior communicating artery connects the right and left anterior cerebral arteries. Posteriorly, the basilar artery divides into right and left posterior cerebral arteries and each join to ipsilateral internal carotid artery through a posterior communicating artery. Anterior communicating artery and posterior communicating arteries are important component of circle of Willis, acts as collateral channel to stabilize blood flow. In the present study, anatomical variations in the circle of Willis were noted and correlated those with clinically. Methods: 50 apparently normal formalin fixed brain specimens were collected from human cadavers.

Authors: Khalaf Ali Meteab , Shabaa Raed Ali Hussain
Published: August 2022

Dermatophytes fungi are causative agents of dermatophytosis. Surface skin fungi are called dermatophytes after the anatomical localization of the lesions. A total of 164 specimens were collected from patients with dermatophytosis (ring worm) distributed into 89/164(54.26%) specimens from male and 75/164(45.73%) specimens from female. The DTM culture medium was prepared by adding 0.2g of phenol red dye to 1 litter of PDA culture medium, utilized the short oligonucleotide (GACA)4 as a primer for identification of the tested dermatophyte isolates by AP-PCR. AP-PCR products for T. verrucosum isolates consisted of three bands at 150 and 300 bp and faint band in 600 bp. For the T. mentagrophytes isolates consists of four bright bands approximately at 200, 400,500 and 1500 bp. All T. rubrum isolates produced nearly similar band pattern, which consisted of five bright bands (approximately 100, 250, 320,500 bp) and one faint band at 2500 bp. M. canis strains revealed the most complex profiles, with up to 7 bands, ranging from 150 bp to 800 bp in size. These results indicated of the current that the AP-PCR technique is simple, reliable, accurate and easy to performed method for the identification dermatophytes fungi to the species level.
Correlation between paraoxonase-1 arylesterase activities and clopidogrel drug in patients with coronary artery disease
Authors: Khudair Likaa Kareem , Numan Ali Waleed

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Clopidogrel, antiplatelet drug, has been widely used for management of CAD. Arylesterase, the activity of Paraoxonase-1 (PON-1), is mainly contributed in the biotransformation of clopidogrel to its active thiol form. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of receiving clopidogrel drug on the arylesterase activities in CAD patients. The effect of receiving clopidogrel drug on the antioxidant activity of arylesterase was also monitored by determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) level. Methods: One hundred CAD patients, who were followed-up for 5 days after reciving clopidogrel, and 50 healthy volunteers were included in our study. The activities of arylesterase using two (phenyl acetate and p-nitrophenyl acetate) substrates, lipid profile, MDA, and total protein concentration (Tp) were determined spectrophotometrically. Results: PON-1 arylesterase activities, HDL-C, and Tp were significantly decreased (P<0.0001) in patients with CAD before receiving clopidogrel drug (CAD-pre-Clp) compared to baseline (non-CAD) and the levels of these parameters were returned to baseline (P>0.05) after 5 days of receiving clopidogrel (CAD-post-Clp).

Objective: Global statistics revealed that respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) are one of the main causes of mortality. Klebsiella pneumonia is considered one of the main causes of ARTIs. Levofloxacin has a wide spectrum effect against gram negative and gram positive bacteria, and its inhibitory activity can by improved through nanobiotechnology. Method: A nanohybrid antibiotic was synthesized by intercalating levofloxacin between magnesium oxide layers. The prepared antibiotic was characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). Results: FT-IR spectrum showed the appearance of new groups in the Lev-MgO spectrum, which indicate the creation of a new compound. XRD spectrum revealed the presence of new diffraction planes which support the results obtained from FT-IR technique. SEM images demonstrated that MgO particles were converted to structure similar to coins arranged in irregular mode. AFM images showed the formation of spherical nanoparticle that indicates the formation of a new compound. Conclusion: The nanohybrid antibiotic was efficient in inhibiting twelve Klebsiella pneumonia isolated from respiratory tract infections.

Medical negligence and malpractice from a proceduralist paradigm
Authors: Baboolal-Frank Rashri
Published: August 2022

Medical malpractice in South Africa, has gained significant momentum over the years. Healthcare professionals have had to ensure that their practices are insured for indemnification for significant amounts, in lieu of medical malpractice claims. This has resulted in healthcare professionals over insuring for medical malpractice and negligence claims, to ensure that they get suitably allocated legal representatives as well as cover in certain instances for the quantum sued by the aggrieved party. The burden of proof is that the plaintiff bears the duty to discharge on a balance of probabilities. This means that the version that was presented is more probable than the Defendant’s version, however, it does not end there, as the healthcare professional must have committed negligence, in that the reasonable medical practitioner would not have shown in the circumstances presented by the plaintiff. The paper navigates the procedural perspective of discharging the onus of proof in medical malpractice and negligence claims.
