Authors: Meristin Annisa , Sunyono Sunyono , Marfu’ah Siti
Published: July 2022

Practical activities during the covid pandemic are difficult to do because all learning has turned to online learning. So that students are required to carry out independent practicum at home, even though laboratory equipment and materials are quite expensive and difficult to obtain. A breakthrough is needed so that the practicum can still be carried out. One of them is independent practicum using simple equipment and materials. Independent practicum is implemented in basic chemistry courses during the odd semester. However, reflection on the practicum is needed to identify motivation and an opinion from student. The research design used was descriptive qualitative research. The research was conducted on students of the Chemical Education Study Program, University of Lampung. Data was collected by using a questionnaire through a Mentimeter. The results showed that (1) students were highly motivated to participate in independent practicum because it was interesting, (2) students' perception of independent practicum is very good, this is shown by the number of students who are helped in understanding the concept of chemistry after doing independent practicum, (3) the obstacle experienced by students during independent practicum is the difficulty of signaling in some areas which causes the upload of independent practicum videos to be often late. This research is relevant and can be a practical breakthrough for both lecturers and teachers who have limited laboratory equipment and materials by loosening the collecting of practicum videos.

Indo Além da Taprobana: O Instituto da Supranacionalidade no Mercosul
Authors: D’Angelis Wagner Rocha
Published: July 2022

Após completar trinta anos de existência, em 26.03.2021, o MERCOSUL ainda não logrou transformar-se em mercado comum – objetivo maior para o qual foi projetado, conforme previsão do art. 1 do seu diploma criador, o Tratado de Assunção (1991). Tendo obtido êxito comercial enquanto zona de livre-comércio, mas mostrando-se ambíguo e imperfeito na sua versão de união aduaneira, o bloco ‘assunceno’ tem apresentado notórios avanços e vários recuos, porquanto sujeito às intempéries e vislumbres políticos de seus governos – além das dificuldades derivadas da ordem econômica mundial e ampliadas com a pandemia de COVID-19 –, já que, até aqui, optou-se por mantê-lo sob o critério da intergovernabilidade. Ora, o presente ensaio busca responder a vários questionamentos relativos à consagração ou fracasso desse agrupamento integracionista, perpassando a tipologia do modelo, o formato estrutural, o seu processo decisório e, mesmo, eventuais entraves decorrentes das ordens jurídicas de seus países-membros. Metodologicamente, recorreu-se, tanto quanto possível, à uma pesquisa qualitativa, dedutiva e comparativa, relacionando decisões intergovernamentais ou diplomas internacionais recentes com a legislação mercosulista consagrada, além do emprego interdisciplinar quanto à análise do momento crítico pelo qual passa o MERCOSUL, bem assim da indispensável comparação entre o modelo assunceno e o tipo de integração de cunho comunitário da União Europeia. Ao sabor de tais análises, têm-se que o MERCOSUL ainda é considerado um forte mecanismo de aportes comerciais e sociais positivos entre os seus membros. Como realidade regional ou mesmo como ideia estratégica, o modelo mantém a sua força, sua vigência e uma boa base de sustentação – a credenciá-lo a melhores tempos. Para tanto, porém, é mister que os países-membros se abram à ideia de uma integração compartilhada, aos moldes da União Europeia, findando o período de convergência da tarifa externa comum (TEC) e optando por uma integração regida pelo instituto da supranacionalidade – com atos e funcionamento sujeitos a um Tribunal de Justiça supranacional. Evidenciar os entraves de ordem interna dos países-membros no alcance de tal desiderato e apresentar as adequações necessárias para o upgrade da associação, rumo ao Mercado Comum – onde vijam as regras institucionais, bem como os direitos humanos e sociais –, são os principais objetivos deste estudo.

Butein-instigated miR-186-5p-dependent modulation of TWIST1 affects resistance to cisplatin and bioenergetics of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma cells
Authors: Cioce Mario , Rutigliano Daniela , Puglielli Annamaria , Fazio Vito Michele
Published: July 2022

Aim: Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a chemoresistant tumor, and biphasic and sarcomatoid histologies portend the worst prognosis for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) patients. We obtained the microRNA expression profile of three biphasic-sarcomatoid MPM cell lines to identify commonly expressed microRNAs and evaluate the effect of butein, a chemo-sensitizing compound, on this microRNA subset. Methods: Nanostring-based microRNA profiling and analysis through the ROSALIND platform were employed to identify the commonly modulated microRNAs and their targets. MicroRNA-mimic transfection, Luciferase assay, and Western blotting were employed to show specific perturbation of TWIST1 levels by miR-186-5p. Sphere-forming assays, invasion assay, and metabolic profiling were used to assess the biological consequences of the butein-instigated miR-186-5p-mediated perturbation of TWIST1 levels. TGCA analysis was used to search for the correlation between TWIST1 and miR-186-5p levels in biphasic and epithelioid MPM specimens. Results: We identified a set of perturbed microRNAs, common to three biphasic/sarcomatoid MPM cell lines, after butein treatment. When focusing on miR-186-5p, we unraveled a butein-ignited and miR-186-5p-mediated modulation of TWIST1 levels which affected the 3D anchorage-independent growth, cisplatin resistance, invasion, and bioenergetics of the MPM cell lines tested. We showed that miR-186-5p and TWIST1 levels are anti-correlated in biphasic MPM specimens from TCGA. Conclusion: We unraveled a novel mechanism of action of butein, which attenuated the pro-tumorigenic features of MPM at least through a miR-186-5p-TWIST1 axis. We suggest that those activities converge into the chemo-sensitizing effect of this compound and may be of translational relevance.
Dynamic Responses of Liquid Storage Tank Under Near Fault Pulse-Like Earthquakes With Different Focal Mechanisms
Authors: Jing Wei , Shen Jian , Cheng Xuansheng
Published: July 2022

A liquid storage tank has a very extensive role in the petrochemical industry, and earthquake damage will cause very serious consequences. Considering the fluid-solid coupling, material nonlinearity and liquid level shaking dynamic behavior, three-dimensional calculation models of non-isolated and isolated liquid storage tanks are established, respectively. 12 earthquake waves are selected from Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER), and there are three earthquake waves of reverse (R), strike slip (SS), reverse oblique (RO) and normal (N) focal mechanisms, respectively. The influence of the focal mechanism on the dynamic responses of the liquid storage tank is investigated. The effectiveness control of sliding isolation on a near fault earthquake is discussed. The influence of the diameter of the limiting device on the shock absorption effect is analyzed. The results show that the order of influence of four types of focal mechanisms on liquid sloshing wave height is as follows: RO$mathrm{>$R$mathrm{>$SS$mathrm{>$N. For the wall displacement, liquid pressure and effective stress of the tank wall, the response under N-type focal mechanism earthquake is generally larger than that of the other three types, and the difference of wall displacement, liquid pressure and wall effective stress under RO, R and SS focal mechanism earthquakes is small. The results show that the dynamic responses of the liquid storage tank under different focal mechanism earthquakes is quite different. Sliding isolation can significantly reduce the dynamic responses of the liquid storage tank under strong near-fault earthquakes, and the diameter of the limiting device will affect the shock absorption effect of sliding isolation.
Dynamic Analysis of Outer and Inner Race Defects on Thermoplastic Rolling Bearing System Using Implicit Finite Element Method
Authors: Gaaliche Nesrine , Chithambaram Subramanian , Fathallah Raouf
Published: July 2022

This paper proposes an improved finite element dynamic model to analyze the vibration response of a rolling bearing system. The vibration responses of defect free and defective polypropylene (PP) bearings are analyzed using the finite element analysis and compared with the experimental results using the in house developed bearing fatigue test rig. The boundary conditions of this model are imposed to ensure an adequate homogeneity with the experimental apparatus. This study considers the viscoelastic property of thermoplastic to investigate the effect of the flexibility and damping viscosity of material. The three-dimensional dynamic analysis detects the vibrations produced in a rolling bearing system. Modal frequencies and the vibration modes shapes which must be avoided had been determined. Monitoring the evolution of vibration signatures as a function of defect location is also carried out using Finite Element Analysis (FEM). Test results reveal that peak vibration amplitudes are more pronounced in an inner ring defect than in an outer ring defect. Vibration signals of stainless-steel bearings are investigated to compare the performance of the thermoplastic bearings with its metallic counterparts. Both test and simulation results reveal that a lower level of vibration is observed with PP bearings compared to that of metal. The PP bearings not only dampen vibrations, but also accommodate shaft misalignments unlike their steel counterparts. Once overall vibration spectrums results are validated, Von Mises stresses within the rings are evaluated under excessive loading conditions. The simulation results show that stress is high in raceways where the balls are compressed between the raceways. Computational results agree well with the experimental tests for the test scenarios.

Published: July 2022

Mining is an important industry that provides products and services through infrastructure systems worldwide. However, the global development promotes the steady growth and accelerated demand for minerals, resulting in the accumulation of hazardous waste in land, sea and air environments and, consequently a series of environmental and health problems. Restoration techniques from mining tailing have become increasingly discussed among scholars due to their potential to offer benefits over reducing tailings levels, thereby reducing environmental pressure for the correct management and adding value to previously discarded waste. This review paper critically explores available literature on the main techniques of mining tailing recycling, and discusses leading recycling technologies, including the benefits and limitations, as well as emerging prospects. The findings of this review serve as a supporting reference for decision-makers concerning the related sustainability issues associated with mining, mineral processing and solid waste management.

THz band-pass filters were fabricated by laser ablation of micro-foils of stainless steel and Kapton. Their spectral performance was tested in transmission and re- flection at the THz beamline at the Australian Synchrotron (AuSy). A 25 μm Kapton film performed as a Fabry-Pérot etalon with a free spectral range of FSR = 119 cm−1, high finesse Fc ≈ 17, and was tuneable over ~10 μm (at ~5 THz band) with β = 30° tilt. The structure of the THz beam focal region as extracted by the first mirror (slit) shows a complex polarisation-wavelength- position dependence across the beam. This is important for polarisation sensitive measurements (in transmission and reflection) and requires normalisation at each orientation of linear polarisation.

Infectious keratitis (IK) represents a major cause of corneal blindness. This study aims to investigate the demographics, risk factors, microbiological characteristics and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of IK in Taiwan over the past 15 years. A retrospective population-based study was conducted using the Chang Gung Research Database. Patients with IK were identified by diagnostic codes for corneal ulcer from 2004 to 2019. Of 7807 included subjects, 45.2% of patients had positive corneal cultures. The proportion of contact lens-related IK declined, while that of IK related to systemic diseases grew. The percentage of isolated gram-positive bacteria surpassed that of gram-negative bacteria in the 15-year period. The prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa showed a decreasing trend (p = 0.004), whereas coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CNS) and Propionibacterium species were increasingly detected (p < 0.001). Overall, the trend of antibiotic susceptibility of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria did not change throughout the study period. The susceptibility to the test antibiotics maintained over 90% in gram-negative isolates during 15 years. Vancomycin preserved 100% susceptibility to all gram-positive isolates. Since most tested antibiotics exhibited stable susceptibility over decades, this study reinforced that fluoroquinolones and fortified vancomycin continue to be good empiric therapies for treating bacterial keratitis in Taiwan.

Published: July 2022

Mammalian seminal plasma contains a multitude of bioactive components, including lipids, glucose, mineral elements, metabolites, proteins, cytokines and growth factors, with various functions during insemination and fertilization. The seminal plasma protein PDC-109 is one of the major soluble components of the bovine ejaculate and is crucially important for sperm motility, capacitation and acrosome reaction. A hitherto underappreciated function of seminal plasma is its anti-microbial and anti-viral activity, which may limit sexual transmission of infectious diseases during intercourse. We have recently discovered that PDC-109 inhibits the membrane fusion activity of influenza virus particles and significantly impairs viral infections at micromolar concentrations. Here we investigated whether the antiviral activity of PDC-109 is restricted to Influenza or if other mammalian viruses are similarly affected. We focused on Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), the etiological agent of the Coronavirus Disease 19 (COVID-19), thoroughly assessing PDC-109 inhibition with SARS-CoV-2 Spike (S)-pseudotyped reporter virus particles, but also live-virus infections. Consistent with our previous publications we found significant virus inhibition, albeit accompanied by substantial cytotoxicity. Using time-of-addition experiments however, we discovered treatment regimen that enable virus suppression without affecting cell viability. We furthermore demonstrated that PDC-109 is also able to impair infections mediated by the VSV glycoprotein (VSVg) thus indicating a broad pan-antiviral activity against multiple virus species and families.

Deradicalization of Qur'an Exegesis in Islamic Boarding Schools in Central Java
Authors: Mu'min Ma'mun , Syukron Muhammad
Published: July 2022

Since its establishment in the 13th century, Islamic boarding schools have played a key role in deradicalization using the exegesis of the Qur'an in Indonesia. The diversity of Islamic boarding schools is the result of the creativity of the ulama in acculturating the culture of the local Muslim community with the kyai as the main driver. As an Islamic educational institution, Islamic boarding schools integrate with the community in performing spiritual worship, educating, and integrating normative culture in religion. Islamic boarding schools create a harmonious, pluralist, and inclusive Muslim community. Nowadays, Islamic boarding schools face accusations from the West as an institution that produces radicals and terrorists. Bombings in Indonesia are mostly done by alumni of Islamic boarding schools. Bomb documents from JW Marriott and Ritz-Carlton hotels belonging to Jamaah Islamiyah (JI) contain information that 141 Islamic boarding schools and 388 Islamic leaders have joined JI. This study aims to complement the shortcomings of existing studies by highlighting the role of Islamic boarding schools in deradicalization using the exegesis of the Qur’an for students in Central Java so that they can avoid radicalism and terrorism. This study is crucial to answer negative accusations against Islamic boarding schools and encourage the creation of moderate exegeses. To elaborate on this effort, the researcher uses the social dialectical theory of Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann, the concept of non-violent Islam from Abdurrahman Wahid, and the concept of Zamakhsyari Dhofier's Islamic boarding schools using socio-anthropological perspectives.

Published: July 2022

Zakat is an Islamic financial instrument that plays a variety of roles in human life, including providing assistance to vulnerable members of society, with particular reference to people with disabilities. This paper examines the institution of Zakat as a tool for alleviating poverty in Nigeria in general and Gombe state in particular, as well as the key roles of Zakat institutions and their problematic operation in the study area. The qualitative method for the study was developed through a literature review and interviews with relevant individuals. The study's findings revealed that the poverty rate of individuals with disabilities is higher than that of any other sub-group of individuals without a disability; thus, societal attitudes toward people with disabilities must be reconsidered immediately. The use of zakat income is a relevant tool for strengthening the skills of vulnerable people, part of which is disabled people. The implications of this study serve as a basis for making recommendations for expanding the scope of distribution of Zakat properties by including consumable properties and cash, as well as textile materials and entrepreneurial packages for the most talented disabled individuals to develop and finance the businesses they have in order to develop poverty alleviation programs in the state.
Determinant of Behavioral Intention to Use Digital Zakat Payment: The Moderating Role of Knowledge of Zakat
Authors: Cahyani Utari Evy , Sari Dia Purnama , Afandi Ahmad
Published: July 2022

The potential for zakat in Indonesia is increasing over time. However, the value of the increase in zakat receipts is not proportional to the potential of zakat. Research on zakat behavior using digital platforms is important considering the lack of realization of zakat collection compared to the existing potential. This study develops the UTAUT model by adding knowledge of zakat as a moderated variable. A quantitative approach is used in this research. The number of respondents in this study was 200 who were obtained through convenience sampling based on questionnaires distributed online. Data analysis was performed using partial least square-structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The results showed that performance expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions had a positive effect on behavioral intention to use digital zakat payment. Meanwhile, the moderating effect shows that knowledge of zakat moderates the relationship between performance expectancy and behavioral intention. These results have implications for the need to increase the effectiveness of digital zakat payments, have influencers who educate about zakat payments using digital, and increase the choice of zakat management institutions that accommodate digital payments so that the intention of muzakki to pay zakat using digital payments is increasing. The moderating effect implies that for muzakki who have higher knowledge of zakat, the level of trust and effectiveness of digital payments can increase the desire to pay zakat through digital payments.

Published: July 2022

This study investigates religiosity's influence on paying zakat intention for millennials with attitude as a mediation variable. A Structural Equation Model (SEM) approach tests the measurement and structural model. The sampling technique is judgmental sampling to get 100 respondents through questionnaires distributed according to the characteristics of predetermined respondents. This study explains that religiosity and attitude positively and significantly affect paying zakat intention for millennials. In addition, this study also shows that attitude mediates the relationship between religiosity and paying zakat intention for millennials. This study provides a managerial implication for zakat institutions to have a better understanding that religiosity and attitude are essential to encourage Muslim millennials to pay zakat and the significant role of millennials in alleviating poverty in Indonesia.

Reducing salt intake is one of the most cost-effective interventions to improve population health due to the subsequent reductions in blood pressure. Countries are introducing programs to lower salt consumption. Such programs usually focus on reducing salt in packaged foods and meals alongside campaigns to change consumer behavior. Thus, this paper provides an overview of the rationale for and evidence supporting the use of salt substitutes. Cur­rent approaches to salt reduction are insufficient, and more innovative solutions need to be identified. There is good evidence that salt substitutes, where some of the sodium is replaced with potassium, are effective to lower sodium total intake. The main challenge is to understand the pathways to market for salt substitutes. How do we implement programs to promote salt substitutes in different countries? What levels of government intervention are required? With more research and government investment, salt substitutes could be a game changer for increasing the impact of strategies to reduce population salt intake.
Synthetic Observational Health Data with GANs: from slow adoption to a boom in medical research and ultimately digital twins?
Authors: Geogres-Filteau Jeremy , Cirillo Elisa
Published: July 2022

After being collected for patient care, Observational Health Data (OHD) can further benefit patient well-being by sustaining the development of Health Informatics (HI) and medical research. Vast potential is unexploited because of the fiercely private nature of patient-related data and regulations to protect it.Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have recently emerged as a groundbreaking way to learn generative models that produce realistic synthetic data. They have revolutionized practices in multiple domains such as self-driving cars, fraud detection, digital twin simulations in industrial sectors, and medical imaging.The digital twin concept could readily apply to modelling and quantifying disease progression. In addition, GANs posses many capabil- ities relevant to common problems in healthcare: lack of data, class imbalance, rare diseases, and preserving privacy. Unlocking open access to privacy-preserving OHD could be transformative for scientific research. In the midst of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (Cucinotta and Vanelli, 2020), the healthcare system is facing unprecedented challenges, many of which of are data related for the reasons stated above.Considering these facts, publications concerning GAN applied to OHD seemed to be severely lacking. To uncover the reasons for this slow adoption, we broadly reviewed the published literature on the subject. Our findings show that the properties of OHD were initially challenging for the existing GAN algorithms (unlike medical imaging, for which state-of-the-art model were directly trans- ferable) and the evaluation synthetic data lacked clear metrics.We find more publications on the subject than expected, starting slowly in 2017, and since then at an increasing rate. The difficulties of OHD remain, and we discuss issues relating to evaluation, consistency, benchmarking, data modelling, and reproducibility.
Image Steganography Method for Securing Multiple Images using LSB – GA
Authors: Naveen Palanichamy , Jayaraghavi R
Published: July 2022

Image steganography is renowned for its flexibility and frequency in the current scenario. This article presents a combination of LSB (Least Significant Bit technique) and GA (Genetic Algorithm) to hide various forms of data – text and images. A novel combination of steganography techniques is used to transmit complete secret data. Also, multiple color images are embedded in a single color image, showing increased secret data holding capacity. Furthermore, the application of GA assures increased security. The excellence of the stego image and retrieved images are evaluated in terms of Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index Metric (SSIM), Correlation coefficient, and Bit Error Rate (BER). Hence, this article is targeted to transmit multiple color images with no loss and improved security using GA and we achieved SSIM between 0.996 to 1.
Channel structure and evolutionary stability analysis between traditional and green service supply chains
Authors: He Peng , Wang Tong-Yuan
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to explore the long-term Evolutionary Stability Strategy (ESS) of vertical channel structure strategic interaction between Traditional and Green Service Supply Chains (TSSC and GSSC) and figure out the optimal pricing and green service decisions. Considering that two types of supply chains could choose between centralized (C) and decentralized channel structures (D), we first establish four channel structure models based on optimization theory, namely, Models DD, DC, CD, and CC. Wherein Model DD(CC) means that two supply chains adopt the channel structure D(C) simultaneously and Model DC(CD) refers to GSSC adopting the channel structure D(C) while TSSC using the channel structure C(D). Further, we develop an evolutionary game to discuss the ESSs of the dynamic competitive system under different market environment. The research results show that the stronger the integration between upstream and downstream firms of GSSC is, the supply chain would more likely provide higher green service when the TSSC has a decentralized channel structure. Moreover, when the competition between two supply chains is sufficiently low, only point (0,0) is the ESS; when it is moderate, there are two ESSs, i.e., ESS (0,0) and ESS (1,1); when it is very high, only point (1,1) is the ESS. Numerical studies are conducted to examine the effects of competition coefficient on prices, demands and profits, as well as the roles of initial states of two supply chains’ channel strategies on their ESSs.
