Authors: Bangun Fransius Brinel , Wawan Wawan , Qomar Nurul
Published: May 2023

Land evaluation is the process of comparing a series of data on land, vegetation and climate with specific use requirements. The goal to be achieved is to determine land use options as a bridge between physical, biological and technological components with economic goals to be achieved in a particular form of land use. Agroforestry is an integrated land use system, which has social and ecological aspects, implemented by combining trees with agricultural crops and / or livestock (animals), either jointly or in rotation. This study aims to identify land characteristics, evaluate the level of land suitability and how to develop a combination pattern of agroforestry plants based on Liberika Coffee that is right for the sake of improving the economy of the community in Kedabu Rapat Village. The method used is survey method and soil sampling by transect line at 1 kilometer intervals proportionally. The data analysis performed was scoring and matching between land characteristics and quality data with plant growth requirements using ArcGIS 10.2 software. The results showed that the annual average rainfall was 1,200-2,400 mm / year, temperatures were between 25 ° C - 32 ° C, flat topography with a classification of slope (<3%), soil types were Organosols and Gleihumus, flood hazard from none to moderate and the danger level of landslides and erosion is very light or not prone. The land suitability level for agroforestry based on Liberika Coffee with shade in the form of Coconut, Areca nut and Geronggang plants is very suitable (S1) covering an area of ​​± 848.64 ha (34.78%), the appropriate category (S2) covering an area of ​​± 584.54 ha (23, 96%), the category according to marginal (S3) is ± 521.78 ha (21.38%), and the unsuitable category (N) is ± 380.42 ha (15.59%) while the settlement area is ± 104.61 ha (4.29%). The combination pattern of agroforestry plants based on Liberika Coffee with shade plants of Coconut, Pinang and Geronggang in Kedabu Rapat Village is combination pattern 1 (border tree planting / trees along border) and combination pattern 2 (alley cropping) where Liberika Coffee plants are 2.5 x spacing. 2.5 m, Coconut spacing 10 x 10 m, Pinang spacing 2.5 x 2.5 m and Geronggang spacing 5 x 5 m.

Published: May 2023

The main problem of upland rice cultivation is the presence of weeds, which cause a decrease in the quantity and quality of crop yields. Generally, farmers use synthetic herbicides to control weeds. One way to reduce the use of synthetic herbicides is by using kiambang extract bioherbicides which are applied to weeds. Currently, there is no research to determine the effect of kiambang extract on upland rice germination. The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of kiambang bioherbicide on the germination phase of upland rice by giving several concentrations of kiambang bioherbicide. This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 5 concentration treatments, namely 2,4-D herbicide, 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% bioherbicide. Kiambang extract concentration was repeated 3 applicates for each replication; each experimental unit consisted of three Petri dishes containing 25 rice seeds. The research parameters were germination percentage, germination rate, length of the plumule, and radicle. Observational data were analyzed using analysis of variance (F test) at a level of 5% and continued with the  Least Significance Different (LSD) test at a level of 5% to determine the difference between treatments. The results showed that the bioherbicide extract of kiambang (Salvinia molesta) 20% did not inhibit seed germination, but the seeds grew abnormally, while concentrations of 40%, 60%, and 80% inhibited germination.

The objective of the study was to study the effects of spent bleaching earth (SBE) and deoiled bleaching earth (DBE) filler-based NPK fertilizers on the agronomical characteristics of soybean as a model crop. A field experiment was arranged in a single factor of randomized complete block design (RCBD) with four blocks as replications. The treatments were 1) NPK fertilizer with 10% of BC (control), 2) NPK fertilizer with 5% of BC + 5% of SBE, and 3) NPK fertilizer with 5% BC + 5% DBE. The variables observed were the levels of heavy metals in leaf tissue and the agronomic characteristics of soybean plants. The observations were made on several variables of agronomical crop characters. The data were then analyzed with analysis of variance (ANOVA) at 5% levels and continued with the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test if there were differences among treatments. The results confirmed that the SBE and DBE materials could partly replace the filler components in NPK fertilizers, which has been proven to have the same impact on the agronomical characteristics of soybean in the form of leaf area, root volume, number of pods per plant, number of seeds per plant, and seed yield per hectar.

Published: May 2023

Non-cultivated local rice is known to have high resistance to various environmental stresses. This resistance is inseparable from the role of symbiotic and non-symbiotic rhizosphere bacteria that live in the root rhizosphere. This study aims to isolate and study the potential of rhizobacteria that live around the roots of non-cultivated local rice plants. This research is exploratory research to obtain rhizobacterial isolates that can stimulate plant growth and development and can be applied to cultivated rice plants. Soil samples were taken from Mimi Baru Village, Jagebob District. Sampling was carried out aseptically. Isolation was carried out using the multilevel dilution method. Isolates grown in NA media were then subcultured to obtain pure isolates. The isolates obtained were then characterized morphologically according to Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology and characterized microscopically. Based on the results of this study it can be concluded that there were 12 bacterial isolates in the local rice "Cempo Laut" which were suspected to be Bacillus and Pseudomonas. The results of this study need to be tested further to determine the effect on plant growth and development.

Fuerza, contenido y la metafísica del juicio
Authors: Vidal Javier
Published: May 2023

El problema Frege-Geach consiste en explicar que el mismo contenido proposicional figure tanto afirmado como no afirmado en diferentes contextos. Se trata de un desafío mayor para una concepción según la cual una proposición predicativa es inherentemente afirmativa. Justamente Peter Hanks ha defendido recientemente dicha concepción al sostener que un acto de predicación es un juicio. Entonces se enfrenta al problema Frege-Geach argumentando que algunos contextos cancelan el compromiso normal con la verdad. Pero según varios críticos, hay un dilema aquí: o bien la cancelación nos deja con algo menos que una predicación o bien nos deja con la predicación menos el compromiso. En este artículo, propongo una aproximación al dilema que apela a la naturaleza no afirmativa de las proposiciones pero salva la estrecha conexión entre la predicación y el juicio. También intento explicar esa estrecha conexión desarrollando una metafísica del juicio en términos de fundación entre hechos, con los hechos judicativos solo fundados parcialmente en los hechos predicativos.
Pureza del método y práctica matemática: Desafíos y perspectivas
Authors: Nigro Puente Guillermo
Published: May 2023

Dentro de la filosofía de la práctica matemática, la cuestión de la pureza del método ha ido ganando un lugar en las agendas de investigación y publicaciones. Usualmente se asume que “pura” es un predicado de soluciones o demostraciones, el cual resulta satisfecho cuando estas son intrínsecas a los problemas o teoremas. En este artículo motivo la adopción de una concepción más hospitalaria, de acuerdo con la cual la pureza del método emerge con naturalidad en la práctica de construir teorías matemáticas autónomas, y muestro cómo a partir de esta la concepción usual se ve enriquecida.

MODELLING OF THE TOTAL PETROLEUM HYDROCARBON (TPH) DEGRADATION DURING THE BIOREMEDIATION OF CRUDE OIL POLLUTED SOIL USING COW DUNG AND WIRE CROTONS
Authors: Ifeanyichukwu Edeh  , Milicent Mauren Thomas
Published: May 2023

The contamination of soil due to activities involved in crude oil exploration and production, and oil spillage emanating from pipeline vandalization, sabotage, theft, corrosion of pipeline and the enterprises of artisanal refineries pose health and ecological problems. This is especially as crude oil contains chemical compounds which are grouped into the Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH), and known to be toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic. Bioremediation is currently being explored as a cost effective and environmentally friendly methods of remediating the soil from this contaminant. Thus, the current work is aimed at developing a mathematical model for the bioremediation process. This was carried out while assuming that the process of degradation is a first order reaction, and the principle of the law of conservation of mass was applied. A linear model ( ) was developed relating the instantaneous concentration of TPH, initial concentration of TPH and time duration of the bioremediation. The model fitted well to the experimental data as shown by the result of the statistical analysis where the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) showed a p-value of 0.004 suggesting that the model is statistically significant. The p-values of the model variables such as time duration of the bioremediation was 0.004, this suggested that the variable is significant. The model can be used as a supporting tool in the management of the biodegradation of TPH to predict the degradation concentration of TPH during the bioremediation process at ambient condition of temperature and pressure using cow dung, wire croton and their combination as a carbon source.

I Want to be on the Side of the Messy Orange : Interview with Tom McCarthy
Authors: Wilm Jan
Published: May 2023

Tom McCarthy’s fifth novel, The Making of Incarnation, delves into the field of time-and-motion studies, and it begins by focusing on one of its chief proponents, Lillian Gilbreth. McCarthy fictionalizes the American psychologist’s life and work by arranging a global chase around an artefact from Gilbreth’s personal archive: “Box 808”, a doll-house-sized motion model that would, according to Gilbreth’s notes, “change everything” in her field and beyond. A fascinating cast of characters goes on the hunt for Box 808, which several interested parties, from industry to shady secret services, are eager to get their hands on. Quickly cutting between several characters and settings, McCarthy’s novel follows professionals in the contemporary motion capture industry, as they pursue the potentials and pitfalls of their trade. One of them, Mark Phocan, is busy performing all sorts of motion capture tasks for Pantarey, the company that employs him. In one of the most meaningful – and most sublime – scenes of the novel, he visits a wind tunnel in the Netherlands and witnesses a simulation of an Austrian bob sleigh run. Phocan will ultimately do most of the detective work to uncover the mysteries of Box 808. While the novel surveys and deconstructs the captivating technological, social, emotional, and political dimensions of motion capture and how it seemingly reaches into every aspect of contemporary life, the book also explores the dealings of a fictional film studio that enlists motion capture engineers to aid with the special effects for their blockbuster space opera Incarnation. In our conversation in April 2023, we delved into the history of time-and-motion studies, the theoretical underpinnings of McCarthy’s work, as well as the capabilities and prospects of the contemporary novel.

Published: May 2023

Depression is one of the most common health problems among inmates at institutions penitentiary (prison) which can be caused by various factors. This depression screening activity aims to detect mental disorders in inmates at the Kerobokan prison so that they can receive treatment immediately before moving on to a more severe phase. The measurement tool used for early detection of depression is the depression anxiety and stress scale (DASS), which has been measured for its validation and reliability. The DASS questionnaire measures the respondent's history of disorders related to depression, anxiety, and stress in the past week. The number of inmates who came to fill out the questionnaire was 96 people. Most are aged 18-40 years, come from outside Bali, have high school-college education, are single, have convict status, do not see their families regularly, and have been in prison for less than 12 months. Most of the inmates are not in a state of depression, anxiety, or stress. In conclusion, mental health screening activities for inmates of the institution penitentiary should be routinely done to prevent more severe mental disorders.
Molecular Detection of Aspergillus Species from Food Sold in Amassoma, Nigeria
Authors: Lawani-Luwaji Ebidor , Tolulope Alade , Confidence Kalama
Published: May 2023

Fungal infections are quite common in humans and range from common, superficial infections to invasive and life-threatening infections. With at least 12 phyla and several fungal species globally, more than 500 species are expected to be infectious to man. One such is the ubiquitous Aspergillus species that mainly causes infection in immunocompromised individuals and those with underlying pulmonary disease. This study compared traditional identification methods and molecular biology techniques to isolate Aspergillus species from food samples sold in the University community. Some selected food samples frequently purchased in the community were analysed for the presence of Aspergillus species using both traditional and molecular biology techniques. Amplification of the ITS region of the rRNA genes of the isolate was performed using the ITS gene. A specie identified as Aspergillus niger was phenotypically identified as Aspergillus sydowii, and another species identified as Aspergillus flavus phenotypically was identified as Aspergillus fumigatus genotypically. The results demonstrate that traditional methods might be misleading, especially to a non-taxonomist. Genotypic identification proved to be more reliable and less time-consuming than phenotypic identification
Descripción De La Narrativa De Familias Inmigrantes Residentes En Panamá Desde El Enfoque Sistémico
Authors:   , Lorena Lorena , Vergara Stephanie
Published: May 2023

El presente trabajo tiene como objetivo describir la narrativa de las familias que se encuentran en un proceso de migración en la ciudad de Panamá desde el enfoque sistémico. Entendiendo la migración como el desplazamiento geográfico de individuos o grupos (Pérez y Gardey, 2008) hacia la búsqueda de mejores oportunidades para la familia (Guzmán, 2005). Se escogió una metodología cualitativa de corte exploratorio ya que no se encontraron estudios formales basados en la experiencia subjetiva de las familias de inmigrantes en Panamá. Entendiendo a la familia como el lugar donde se generan las primeras relaciones significativas y donde se construye la identidad que la familia proyecta al mundo (Satir, 1998). Se utilizó el modelo narrativo de White y Eptson (1993), como herramienta para recopilar la información y como marco conceptual para describir las historias. Para lograr el objetivo se entrevistaron a cinco familias provenientes de Venezuela, Italia, Chile, y España, quienes tenían más de un año y menos de seis viviendo en Panamá. Se encontró que cada familia poseía una historia previa a la migración que los definía dentro del marco del drama, la aventura, el éxito, la tradición o la lucha. La aproximación hacia la migración era desde la búsqueda de la historia alternativa. La migración actuaba como un detonante que movilizaba a todos los personajes y que los obligaba a reorganizar su historia dominante. El conflicto aparecía cuando la historia que se construía en Panamá no era cónsona con lo que ellos creían de sí mismos. Las tensiones generadas por esta nueva identidad se manifestaban en discusiones, agobio, frustración o exceso de control. A pesar de mantener relación con su familia de origen, la migración potenció la sensación de soledad ante los conflictos, viéndose obligados a adoptar a los amigos como nuevas fuentes de apoyo y de referencia a su nueva realidad. Se puede concluir que para las familias entrevistadas, la adaptación tenía que ver con la actualización de la nueva identidad de inmigrante dentro de su historia de vida. Más allá del proceso de duelo y vivencias de estrés, es integrar todos los componentes de sus nuevas experiencias dentro de su narrativa. A su vez, el acto en sí de migrar tenía connotaciones positivas tanto para la familia que migró, como para la familia que se quedó, otorgándole el significado de aventura, lucha, y valentía. Esto puede ser una fortaleza a tomar en cuenta para el trabajo con familias en la misma condición. Finalmente, se recomienda continuar realizando estudios cualitativos con esta población, sobre todo con las familias procedentes de Venezuela, familia que presentó una marcada diferencia en la forma en que narraban su situación en Panamá. La idea es construir un marco empírico que permita comprender el fenómeno para estas familias y a su vez otorgar mayores herramientas para que los terapeutas familiares puedan aproximarse a la problemática de una familia de inmigrantes en Panamá.

The system Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) presents minimum bandwidths to provide required transmission data rates, isolation can also be improved using multiple input multiple output (MIMO) scheme increasing their capacity. In this paper, the Decoupling Networks technique is presented to reduce the coupling between the elements of the MIMO antenna and thus improve data rate with a 2x2 MIMO antenna system. The dielectric used was FR4 substrate with dielectric constant εr = 4.4 and thickness of substrate 1.544 mm. The S11 and S12 scattering parameters were obtained as well as ECC at the resonance frequency and bandwidth. The radiation pattern and the current density are simulated by HFSS. The antenna size is 80x65mm^2.

Introduction. Frequent use of ultra-processed foods (UPF) leads to poor health outcomes, and the population must avoid their consumption. Objective. To assess the occurrence of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) in culinary lunch menus from various institutional food services. Materials and methods. Over one month, the five institutional food services analyzed served 1,128 culinary preparations; and a total of 3,863 ingredients were classified according to the extent and purpose of processing using the NOVA classification system. Associations between the occurrence of UPFs and the type, size, and management of food service establishments were analyzed. Five institutional food services in three municipalities (Bauru, Limeira, and Campinas), Brazil. Results. We found 8.4 % up to 12.6 % UPF ingredients used in culinary preparations. The highest frequency of UPFs was associated with private cafeterias (p = 0.002). Most UPFs were part of the recipe or the main ingredient in protein dishes and desserts (p < 0.05) and in university and hospital food services, respectively. UPF use was associated with food service size and type of management (p ≤ 0.003) and was more prevalent in protein dishes (p = 0.003) and large-size institutional food services (28.8 %). Self-managed units (p = 0.03) also use high amounts of UPFs in protein dishes (20.3 %). Conclusions. The presence of UPF rounded 10%; the validity of this value needs further studies. There are no comparative data in the scientific literature regarding the use of these ingredients in institutional food service culinary preparations. Therefore, it is necessary to stimulate reflection to promote healthy food habits and adequate nutrition for diners.
