Some Approaches To The Assessment of Over tourism in Mature Tourist Destinations
Authors: Chigarev Dmitriy Valerievich
Published: July 2020

The purpose of the article is to analyze approaches to assessing this phenomenon in mature tourist destinations. The article gives a detailed analysis of some publications. The authors focus on five types of problems associated with it: alienated local residents, a degraded tourist experience, overloaded infrastructure, damage to nature, and threat to culture and heritage. Diagnostics was developed which allows determining the level of risk of overcrowding by tourists in destinations. Some shortcomings of this methodology were pointed out in a study conducted by a number of authors (Peeters et al., 2018) for the European Parliament Committee on Transport and Tourism. The study focuses on the main indicators of overtourism. For regions or destinations wishing to assess the risk of overtourism, a checklist has been proposed to evaluate it. The authors of the joint study by the Austrian Hotelier Association (ÖHV) and the Roland Berger global consultancy firm (2018) divided measures to combat overtourism into proactive measures (when destinations plan their activities) and reactive measures (when cities are already experiencing problems with overtourism). In addition, a four-step sustainable tourism development plan has been developed. All authors agree that the lack of reliable statistics makes it difficult to effectively identify the state of overtourism in destinations. Nevertheless, the planning and vigorous activity of all interested parties (business, government, society) will allow weakening the social, economic and environmental consequences of overtourism for mature tourist destinations.

Taking into account bioclimatic conditions of a territory is one of the necessary elements for the tourism industry. In order to assess the bioclimatic conditions of selected settlements of Uzbekistan, such as Samarkand, Dagbit, Tashkent and the Chimgan mountain recreation zone, a thermohygrometric coefficient of air aridity is used. It is shown that the coefficient has a good response to changes in temperature and humidity and a clearly defined tendency in its annual and daily course. Based on the statistical processing of the data series of standard observations of air temperature and dew point at Samarkand, Dagbit, Tashkent Observatory and Chimgan meteorological stations for the period of 2009-2018 the spatial-temporal features of distribution of thermal comfort conditions are revealed.

Published: July 2020

Nowadays the topic of public relations is being actively promoted in literature and press. It is obvious that, it has become clear that this is an important part of our daily bases. It deals with the sphere of management, especially with the issue concerned Uzbekistan. Sometimes countries are constantly exposed to various crises with serious consequences. To balance these effects, the management and public relations have been applied. So that that a great deal of attention is paid to political PR. As for political PR, the ability of public relations to manage crises, to relieve tension, to ease the situation, to reset public attitudes, to regain people's approval and trust in the activities of the authorities is also widely used in the spectrum of its debate. Important to note that, the business sector has been studied less than it should be. Traditional aspects of the research are election campaigns, work for the prestige of politicians, and in the commercial area, banks and some large companies. We should take into consideration that small and medium business as it is in this domain that lies the basis of development for our country. Besides, it seems to me that although public relations in small companies do not have this scale, they are very important for healthy development. Therefore, it is necessary to explore and develop methods of public relations for the private business sphere.

Published: July 2020

The development of routes in tourism has gained prominence in recent years. One key aim of these routes, apart from attracting tourists to an area, is to tie-up several attractions that would independently not have the potential to entice visitors to spend time and money. Using a cooperation effect promises to have greater pulling power, and it also disperses visitors’ money among a larger number of recipients. Many cities promoting a different type of routes that, in some way, domesticate the gaze of tourists. The most famous routes across the world are the catalog of city resources and offer some of them, which are “consumed” in a homogenous way. The main question of this thesis is (1) how to identify routes in a designated area (2) which socio-demographic and travel related variables are influencing tourists route choice behavior. The questionnaire-based survey was conducted in Samarqand city among local tourists.

Geo Information Technologies as a Tool for Managing Tourism Resources
Authors: Babayan Tigran
Published: July 2020

Today, the process of developing tourist destinations is possible only by using modern spatial planning tools for tourism market entities. To carry out this in the power of geographic information technologies, which are actively being implemented in all spheres of our life, including in tourism. For a real assessment of the recreational potential of the region, which has unique natural, historical and cultural potential, it is necessary to create geographic information systems (GIS), which reflect in the same way all the rest necessary for implementation in tourism products, infrastructure. Simple sites of travel agencies, service sectors, paper maps, guides and other well-known materials are not capable of flexibility and, most importantly, quickly respond to changes, innovations. These factors are especially valuable when studying the potential of the territory, for the compilation of tourism products of different levels of service. This approach can guarantee the development of tourism in any territory. Moreover, make a forecast for long-term targeted programs in the development of tourism. Geo information technologies are able to not only generate demand, but also indicate investment vectors for territorial development in order to turn it into a tourist destination. The article considers the issues of geographic information support in the goals of tourism development using the example of a small mountainous regions of the Republic of Armenia. The experience of certification of resources for tourism is considered.

Authors: Zalafi Zahratika , Sjabadhyni Bertina , Suyanto Helmi
Published: July 2020

When faced with a particular ethical dilemma, individuals are expected to make ethical decisions through an ethical decision-making process (EDM). Today’s employees provide added value to organizations that implement flexible arrangements to support employee’s well being and work-life balance. This research was conducted through an online survey on 236 active employees with a minimum age of 22 years old in Indonesia. Likert scales were used to examine the effect of flexible work arrangements (FWA) mediated by work-life balance (WLB) on the level of EDM of individuals in organizations. The mediation results showed that FWA mediated by WLB significantly predicted an increase in individual’s EDM level (b = .359, SE = .116, 95% CI = .152 - .607). Positive implementation of FWA leads to balanced WLB which in turn increased the level of individual EDM.

Authors: Fuochi Virginia , Emma Rosalia , Furneri Pio M.
Published: July 2020

Nowadays, consumers have become increasingly attentive to human health and the use of
more natural products. Consequently, the demand for natural preservatives in the food industry is more
frequent. This has led to intense research to discover new antimicrobial compounds of natural origin
that could effectively fight foodborne pathogens. This research aims to safeguard the health of consumers
and, above all, to avoid potentially harmful chemical compounds. Lactobacillus is a bacterial
genus belonging to the Lactic Acid Bacteria and many strains are defined GRAS, generally recognized
as safe. These strains are able to produce substances with antibacterial activity against food spoilage
bacteria and contaminating pathogens: the bacteriocins. The aim of this review was to focus on this
genus and its capability to produce antibacterial peptides. The review collected all the information
from the last few years about bacteriocins produced by Lactobacillus strains, isolated from clinical or
food samples, with remarkable antimicrobial activities useful for being exploited in the food field. In
addition, the advantages and disadvantages of their use and the possible ways of improvement for industrial
applications were described.

Published: July 2020

Background:

Leishmaniasis is a neglected tropical disease caused by protozoa of the genus
Leishmania. Current treatments are restricted to a small number of drugs that display both severe side
effects and a potential for parasites to develop resistance. A new N-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-N'-
(2-phenethyl) thiourea compound (thiourea 1) has shown promising in vitro activity against Leishmania
amazonensis with an IC50 of 54.14 μM for promastigotes and an IC50 of 70 μM for amastigotes.

Objective:

To develop a formulation of
thiourea 1 as an oral treatment for leishmaniasis, it was incorporated into nanoparticles (NPs), a proven approach to provide long-acting drug
delivery systems Method: NPs of poly (D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) polymeric NPs containing thiourea 1 were obtained through a
nanoprecipitation methodology associated with solvent evaporation. The NPs containing thiourea 1 were characterized for encapsulation
efficiency (EE%), reaction yield (% w/w), surface charge, particle size and morphology by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

Results:

NPs with thiourea 1 showed an improved in vitro leishmanicidal activity with a reduction in its cytotoxicity against macrophages (CC50>100
µg/mL) while preserving its IC50 against intracellular amastigotes (1.46 ± 0.09 µg/mL). This represents a parasite selectivity index (SI) of
68.49, which is a marked advancement from the reference drug pentamidine (SI = 30.14).

Conclusion:

The results suggest that the
incorporation into NPs potentiated the therapeutic effect of thiourea 1, most likely by improving the selective delivery of the drug to the
phagocytic cells that are targeted for infection by L. amazonensis. This work reinforces the importance of nanotechnology in the acquisition
of new therapeutic alternatives for oral treatments.

Authors: Nayarisseri Anuraj , Khandelwal Ravina , Madhavi Maddala , Selvaraj Chandrabose , Panwar Umesh , Sharma Khushboo , Hussain Tajamul , Singh Sanjeev Kumar
Published: July 2020

Background:

The vast geographical expansion of novel coronavirus and an increasing number
of COVID-19 affected cases have overwhelmed health and public health services. Artificial
Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms have extended their major role in tracking
disease patterns, and in identifying possible treatments.

Objective:

This study aims to identify potential COVID-19 protease inhibitors through shape-based
Machine Learning assisted by Molecular Docking and Molecular Dynamics simulations.

Methods:

31 Repurposed compounds have been selected targeting the main coronavirus protease
(6LU7) and a machine learning approach was employed to generate shape-based molecules starting
from the 3D shape to the pharmacophoric features of their seed compound. Ligand-Receptor Docking
was performed with Optimized Potential for Liquid Simulations (OPLS) algorithms to identify highaffinity
compounds from the list of selected candidates for 6LU7, which were subjected to Molecular
Dynamic Simulations followed by ADMET studies and other analyses.

Results:

Shape-based Machine learning reported remdesivir, valrubicin, aprepitant, and fulvestrant as
the best therapeutic agents with the highest affinity for the target protein. Among the best shape-based
compounds, a novel compound identified was not indexed in any chemical databases (PubChem, Zinc,
or ChEMBL). Hence, the novel compound was named 'nCorv-EMBS'. Further, toxicity analysis
showed nCorv-EMBS to be suitable for further consideration as the main protease inhibitor in
COVID-19.

Conclusion:

Effective ACE-II, GAK, AAK1, and protease 3C blockers can serve as a novel therapeutic
approach to block the binding and attachment of the main COVID-19 protease (PDB ID: 6LU7) to
the host cell and thus inhibit the infection at AT2 receptors in the lung. The novel compound nCorv-
EMBS herein proposed stands as a promising inhibitor to be evaluated further for COVID-19 treatment.

Synergistic Effect of Calcium Chloride and Chitosan Treatment on Physicochemical Characteristics of Pineapple (Ananas Comosus) Fruit During Cool Storage
Authors: Minh Phuoc Nguyen
Published: July 2020

Pineapple (Ananascomosus) is one of the most popular agricultural products in the world. It is well-known for its excellent flavour and taste, diversified valuable nutritional components as well as phytochemical and antioxidant properties. However it is quite perishable at ambient condition due to its high respiration rate. It is essential to find an appropriate strategy to extend its stability during storage. This study concentrates on the effectiveness of calcium chloride and chitosan treatments on the post-harvest physicochemical quality of pineapple during storage at 12oC and 80±5% relative humidity. The fruit was treated with different concentrations of CaCl2  (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5%) via dipping for 4 min and chitosan (0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5% w/v) via coating. Different physicochemical parameters such as weight loss (%), firmness (N), decay percentage (%), total soluble solid (oBrix), ascorbic acid (mg/100g) were thoroughly examined, Our results showed that a combination of 2.0% CaCl2 with 1.5% chitosan  created a synergistic effect on physicochemical characteristics of pineapple fruit during 14 days of cool storage. These results implied that calcium chloride combined with chitosan as edible coatings have potential to maintain fruit quality in respect of weight loss, firmness, total soluble solid, ascorbic acid while reducing post harvest spoilage (decay) in pineapple fruit.

Marginal integrity is one of the important principles of Tooth preparation. To achieve this, a satisfactory gingival displacement procedure is necessary. Aim of this study was to determine an appropriate gingival displacement and to access the gingival displacement on an unprepared tooth using retraction paste and impregnated retraction cord.  Fourteen patients were chosen for this in vivo study. Oral prophylaxis was completed 15 days prior to the retraction procedure. Mandibular preliminary impressions were made using rubber base impression material. Gingival retraction procedure was carried out on the right and left  1st   mandibular  molars  alternatively  using  retraction  paste  and  retraction  cord  after  2  days  of  preliminary  impression. Retraction paste was placed directly over the sulcus as per manufacturer’s instructions and kept for 2-3 minutes and rinsed and the required  length of retraction  cord was dispensed  and placed  into the gingival  sulcus using a cord packer  and cord was removed after 5 minutes. Post retraction measurements completed    made an impression with rubber base impression material by using sectional tray alternatively. Statistical analysis was performed with ANOVA test, paired student t test with SPSS version 21. Patients were  more  comfortable  with  retraction  paste  as against  gingival  retraction  cord  with  significance  observed  by observers 1, 3  and 4. (P<0.05). Retraction  paste  had significantly better  retraction  ability  compared to  retraction  cord as observed by observer 1, 3 and 4 (p<0.05) whereas no significant difference was observed by observer 2(p>0.05).  Retraction paste was significantly  less time consuming  compared  to retraction  cord as reported  by observer  1 and 4 (P<0.05)  and no significant differences between the two systems was reported by observer 3and 4(P>0.05.Within  the limitations of the study, both retraction techniques  showed adequate  gingival retraction  for the prosthesis  and clinically insignificant  differences  were seen in both gingival retraction system regarding the retraction achieve. Retraction paste found to be easy for the control of hemorrhage and easy for placement and recommended to use where there is uncontrolled bleeding and sub-gingival finish lines of the tooth preparation However, the amount of vertical gingival retraction observed with the paste retraction system was significantly less than the medicated retraction cord.
