Percezione che l’infermieristica italiana ha di sé stessa: uno studio qualitativo
Authors: Decaro Roberta , Gazineo Domenica , Godino Lea
Published: August 2024

INTRODUZIONE: La professione infermieristica nell’ultimo ventennio ha raggiunto una serie di importanti traguardi e conquiste, soprattutto a livello normativo. Nonostante ciò, la percezione della popolazione generale, ma anche la visione che l’infermiere ha di sé stesso rimane spesso stereotipata e antiquata.
OBIETTIVI: L’obiettivo dello studio consiste nel valutare la percezione sulla figura dell’infermiere da parte dei professionisti stessi.
METODI: È stata condotta un’analisi tematica qualitativa secondaria derivante da uno studio cross-sectional più ampio. Per questo studio si è scelto di selezionale le risposte derivanti da coloro che hanno dichiarato svolgere la professione infermieristica in Italia e che hanno risposto all’ultima domanda aperta del questionario.
RISULTATI: Gli infermieri italiani percepiscono un mancato riconoscimento circa la propria vera potenzialità sia intrinseco, che estrinseco alla professione stessa. In un contesto lavorativo percepito come usurante, poco retribuito e all’interno di un’organizzazione basata su logiche non sono centrate sul paziente, viene percepita frustrazione e demotivazione nell’esercizio dell’assistenza infermieristica.
CONCLUSIONI: Al fine di uniformare e rivendicare un’immagine attuale e veritiera della professione infermieristica, sono stati individuati fattori modificabili sia interni che esterni. Agire aumentando la consapevolezza delle proprie potenzialità sin dall’ambito formativo, potrebbe rendere le nuove generazioni di infermieri realmente coscienti del proprio ruolo. Aumentare la collaborazione interprofessionale, potrebbe rendere visibile la professionalità all’interno dell’equipe. Infine, fornire adeguate informazioni sul profilo renderebbe consapevole la popolazione generale dell’importanza dell’infermiere all’interno del panorama sanitario.
‘INEFFECTIVE SPONTANEOUS VENTILATION (00033)’ NURSING DIAGNOSIS: A REVISION STUDY.
Authors: Fazi Virginia , Giusti Gian Domenico , Cozzolino Rosaria , Ramacciati Nicola
Published: August 2024

Background: Spontaneous ventilation, essential for human life, is addressed by the nursing diagnosis “Ineffective Spontaneous Ventilation” which requires strong scientific support.
Aim: This revision study aimed to elevate this nursing diagnosis to a higher level of evidence by clarifying its definition, clinical indicators, and differentiation from other diagnoses. The diagnosis is crucial for identifying patients with compromised breathing who may require respiratory support.
Methods: Researchers searched the PubMed medical literature database for studies (2006-2021) on the "Ineffective Spontaneous Ventilation" diagnosis.
Results: The search identified 45 studies, but after applying pre-defined criteria, only 10 articles were included in the final analysis. These articles mainly focused on the accuracy of defining characteristics for the diagnosis.
Despite limitations of individual defining characteristics, Impaired Spontaneous Ventilation remains a valuable nursing diagnosis for patients with respiratory issues. Utilizing clusters of these characteristics and considering the specific context can significantly enhance the accuracy of ISV diagnosis.
Conclusion: The findings unequivocally corroborate the definition of Impaired Spontaneous Ventilation, with eight out of ten articles providing validation. Moreover, the analysis proposes additional defining characteristics, namely dyspnea and cyanosis, to further refine the diagnosis.
The clinical applicability of Impaired Spontaneous Ventilation extends to a wide range of patient populations and conditions. It serves as a critical marker for premature infants grappling with respiratory and cardiac challenges, trauma victims battling life-threatening injuries, and patients relying on mechanical ventilation in intensive care settings.
Mappa stilistica della narrativa degli anni Novanta (pp. 8-38)
Authors: Matt Luigi
Published: August 2024

Il saggio propone una mappa delle principali tendenze stilistiche della narrativa italiana degli anni Novanta. Viene dedicata particolare attenzione agli scrittori esordienti. I risultati delle analisi contraddicono alcuni giudizi molto comuni tra i critici. In particolare, si nota una grande varietà stilistica; inoltre, è evidente che i modelli di alcuni autori novecenteschi (come Italo Calvino, Elsa Morante, Alberto Arbasino) rimangono importanti per i narratori di fine secolo.
Lontano dalla via Emilia. Il “caso” Daniele Benati (pp. 237-255)
Authors: Gimmelli Gabriele
Published: August 2024

Debuttante tardivo, Daniele Benati collabora con Gianni Celati alla rivista «Il semplice» (1995-97), ritrovandosi quasi subito confinato all’interno della cosiddetta “linea padana”. Il suo primo libro, Silenzio in Emilia (1997), apparirà agli occhi di molti una conferma di quell’appartenenza; eppure Benati possiede non solo una voce già ben riconoscibile, ma anche un personale repertorio di temi e ossessioni che di “semplice” e localistico hanno ben poco. Quali sono le ragioni di questo equivoco? E quale peso ha avuto sulla scarsa fortuna toccata a uno scrittore tra i più colti e originali della sua generazione?
I sogni di Giuseppe il Patriarca e le visioni della sua sposa Aseneth
Authors: Calabi Francesca
Published: August 2024

The subject of this paper are two interpretations given in the Judaic-Hellenistic context of the dreams of the patriarch Joseph and the visions of Aseneth. The first one is the interpretation of Philo of Alexandria who sees messages to be interpreted, 'texts', in dreams. Like the Bible, dreams also require exegesis and it is as an exegete of dreams that Joseph gains power. He interprets Pharaoh's dreams, able to take measures to govern their effects, but he also knows how to give substance to the dreams of the crowd in a world of appearances. Dreamer and interpreter of dreams, he is able to interpret them and support them, he is the emblem of the politician who dominates the crowd and, in turn, is enslaved by it. The second interpretation is that of an anonymous novel written in Greek, apparently a love story, which, however, also has a metaphorical value: it indicates a journey into a dreamlike sphere towards new forms of knowledge. It tells of Aseneth's falling in love with Joseph and the consequent desire for conversion to become similar to the Patriarch. The girl has visions, communicates with celestial spheres and is visited by a man from the sky and the bees of Paradise. It presents an exit from habitual situations: it culminates in dream images, in an ecstatic situation. There is an asymmetry between Joseph's dreams, dreams of power, and the visions of his wife who has dreams of truth, of knowledge, of acceptance of new ideas, new beliefs. She longs to turn towards higher spheres of knowledge, towards a mystical horizon.
Il disegno dei sogni
Authors: Luchi Monica
Published: August 2024

This article explores the multifaceted concept of dreams within the context of contemporary art. It examines how the term "dream" is interpreted and represented by different artists and their works, specifically in the exhibition "Dream: Art Meets Dreams" curated by Danilo Eccher. The exhibition is described as an allegorical journey into the deepest parts of the human soul, touching on desires, expectations, and fears. It showcases how dreams serve as a channel to access the unconscious and spiritual dimensions, influenced by Freudian thought. The article also delves into historical perspectives on dreams, from Plato to modern neuropsychology, and how these perspectives shape our understanding of dreams as both a personal and universal phenomenon. Through the analysis of various artworks and artistic approaches, the article highlights the ongoing dialogue between dream imagery and its aesthetic and symbolic significance in both historical and contemporary contexts.
Il sognatore deriso
Authors: Canfori Tiziana
Published: August 2024

In the vast world of Schubert's Lieder, the dream is a pulsating element, the heart and engine of a poetic linked to romantic aspects as well as vertigo and nightmare in the most torn and modern notes. The imagination and the courage to desire the future are expressed with tender lightness, until the ironic harshness of reality overturns the dream into the darkest night. Schubert, however, has his own recipe to restore light to us in another way.
Il cinema come arte del sogno
Authors: Ferrario Lucia
Published: August 2024

Raging Bull (Scorsese, 1980) and Veronika Voss (Fassbinder, 1982) are apparently very distant, but they present very profound traits of union. Both Scorsese and Fassbinder, in portraying their protagonists, use black and white cinematography, often resorting to the use of photographic flashes to accentuate the illusory sensation of a dream of glory. In Veronika Voss there is an openly dreamlike sequence, in which the spectator witnesses the protagonist's farewell to her dreams of greatness. Scorsese, in Raging Bull, apparently refuses to venture into the dreamlike representation of his protagonist's psyche. The vision of Raging Bull, however, is a highly evocative poetic experience: the suspension with respect to reality – that is, the sensation of witnessing the representation of a dream of glory and not of a mere fact – is achieved through the use of the soundtrack, cinematography, editing and, in general, of means that constitute the specifics of cinematographic art.

Il sogno in sequenza
Authors: De Maio Simone
Published: August 2024

The laws of logic lose their validity in the dream, everything in it has a sequential order. Indeed the dream is composed by sequentially placed images. Hence follows the value of painting which, by the drawing, manages to make the sequence itself visible. Therefore the dreamlike dimension reaches its maximum expression in art that transcends the abstract conceptualization of the word. The purpose of this essay, focused on the works produced by Tiger Tateishi during his stay in Milan, is to show how the Japanese artist was able to represent the sequential dimension of the dream through his paintings, moreover characterized by the fusion between surrealism and comics.

Intimate Partner Violence in Sexual Minority Women in Same-Sex Relationships: A Review
Authors: Falluji Emma , Li Nina , Newman Zari , Carpino Tom
Published: August 2024

Research on intimate partner relationships in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) community often explores the prevalence and risk factors of infectious diseases, such as HIV and STIs, or intimate partner violence (IPV) among sexual minority men. There remains a dearth of scholarship about IPV among sexual minority women (SMW) such as lesbian and bisexual women. However, they are more likely to experience IPV in their lifetime compared to heterosexual women and men, gay men, and bisexual men. This non-systematic review of the literature (NSRL) aims to compile the findings of recent studies on IPV among SMW in same-sex relationships, focusing on the causal relationships that inform this phenomenon and the risk factors for IPV. Our review found that major determinants of IPV in SMW in same-sex relationships include social stigma, depression, substance use, and internalized homophobia. We also considered the framework of intersectionality and the minority stress model in analyzing the literature. We developed a causal loop diagram (CLD) to summarize our findings and found two prominent reinforcing loops and several intersecting causal relationships between the aforementioned determinants and others. More research needs to evaluate how national emergencies requiring isolation may impact intimate partner relationships, and how to provide resources to individuals experiencing IPV at those times. Additionally, our findings indicated a need for more comprehensive legal protections and anti-discrimination policies for women in same-sex relationships, since legal barriers related to social stigma may prevent people from accessing or seeking out help for the IPV they may be experiencing.

Authors: REHMAN MSU , IBRAR A , HABIB H
Published: August 2024

Childhood obesity has become a significant public health concern, particularly in urban areas where lifestyle and environmental factors contribute to increased prevalence. Socioeconomic status plays a crucial role in determining health outcomes, with children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds facing higher risks of obesity. Understanding these correlations is essential for developing effective interventions to combat childhood obesity. Objective: To investigate the prevalence of childhood obesity in urban areas and analyze its correlation with socioeconomic status, aiming to identify underlying factors contributing to this public health issue. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from January to June 2024 in Allied Hospital Faisalabad, targeting 190 children aged 5 to 15. A multi-stage sampling technique ensured diverse socioeconomic representation. Data collection included demographic questionnaires, dietary habits surveys, and physical assessments to measure height, weight, and BMI. Socioeconomic status was assessed using a composite index of parental education, household income, and occupation. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and logistic regression using SPSS software version 26. Results: The study found that 42.6% of the children were of average weight, 27.3% were overweight, and 30.0% were obese. Among children from low socioeconomic backgrounds, 43.3% were obese, compared to 24.7% from middle and 22.2% from high socioeconomic statuses. The prevalence of obesity was significantly higher in low socioeconomic status children (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings indicate a significant correlation between socioeconomic status and childhood obesity, with higher obesity rates among children from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. These results underscore the need for targeted public health interventions to address the socioeconomic determinants of childhood obesity, promoting healthier lifestyles and improving access to nutritious food and physical activity resources.

A Study on the application of 'Peer editing' in University Liberal Arts Korean Presentation Class : Focused on Writing steps
Authors:   Liberal Arts Innovation Center, Kim Jung Hyun , Zo Hyoung Il
Published: August 2024

It is difficult for international students to receive smooth academic performance after they enter university. To this end, a university-affiliated Korean language training institution provides presentation education for international students for academic purposes. However, due to the lack of physical class time, the level and quantity of education on the structure, content, and preparation process of the presentation are often insufficient. Therefore, in Korean university classes, the majority of foreign learners are bound to face difficulties. Moreover, the negative experiences gained through presentation cause learners to experience anxiety about speaking. This anxiety causes a decrease in learners’ self-esteem and self-efficacy in speaking. In order to relieve this anxiety, this study suggested applying the peer editing method as a way to improve Korean communication skills, language function performance skills, and presentation skills together from the preparation process of the presentation.
A presentation can be defined as an activity that expresses one’s thoughts or opinions in front of several people. Therefore, in order to increase the completeness of the presentation, attention should be paid to non-lingual factors such as pronunciation, accent, presenter’s attitude, hand gestures, and use of presentation materials, in addition to the content and linguistic elements of the presentation. In this thesis, a study was conducted focusing on writing a presentation manuscript during the preparation process for the presentation. In the process of preparing for the presentation, the presentation was conducted in advance within a small group as if the actual presentation was made, such as deciding the topic of the presentation or writing an outline and draft. At this time, the teaching and learning contents and evaluation items were proposed so that peer editing could be performed so that nonverbal elements such as learners’ own pronunciation, attitude, and voice could be evaluated.

An Examination of the Media Characteristics of Theater through Media Theory: Focusing on the Theories of Marshall McLuhan and Walter Ong
Authors:   Liberal Arts Innovation Center, Cho Chung Beom , Cho Joon Hui
Published: August 2024

This study defines theater as a form of media in the multimedia era of the 21st century and analyzes the changes in sensation and perception as well as the implications for existence through the media theories of Marshall McLuhan and Walter J. Ong. McLuhan defined media as a major factor in changing the way we feel and perceive, and recognized it as a major driver of society and culture, while Ong built a theory of human thought, feeling, and existence through his research on the oral nature of language and the literal nature of writing and printing. As a reflection of human history and culture, theater has changed its form and function, as well as the way it is sensed and perceived, with the development of media.
This paper first examines McLuhan’s theory of media as an extension of the human senses, drawing a distinction between hot media and cool media through his argument that media are categorized and perceived according to the senses. Then each concept is summarized through Ong’s view of media centered on orality, culture, and presence. Based on the above theoretical background, we examine the changes in the form and sensation of theater as influenced by media, including oral, written, printed, and electronic technologies. In the process, we examine the connection between media and theater through Hans Thies Lehmann’s argument of dividing theater into texts and summarize the theater and culture of each period. The, through Ong’s concepts of linguistic presence and presence in theater, we summarize the media conditions of theater and also summarize the concept of presence in contemporary theater.
Through this paper, we hope to contribute to the continuous observation of the changes of theater in the media environment and to the study of the cultural and artistic values of contemporary theater.
The Effect of Facework on the Subjective Happiness and Behavioral Intention of Korean Classical Performance Audience
Authors:   Liberal Arts Innovation Center, Choi Na Da , Lee Hee Sung
Published: August 2024

This study analyzes the types of facework among audiences attending Korean classical performances and examines how these types influence subjective happiness and behavioral intentions. To conduct this research, a survey was conducted targeting individuals who had attended classical performances within the last 6 months. The responses were subsequently analyzed for reliability, validity, and hypothesis testing. The facework of classical performance attendees was categorized into four subfactors: selfface, other-face, prestige-face, and character-face.
It was found that these four types of facework have varying impacts on subjective happiness. Self-face was shown to have a negative impact on subjective happiness, while prestige-face did not achieve statistical significance. Other-face and character-face were statistically significant in relation to subjective happiness. Moreover, subjective happiness was found to significantly influence behavioral intentions. Regarding the relationship between facework types and behavioral intentions, self-face, other-face, and character-face achieved statistical significance, whereas prestige-face did not. This indicates that classical performances play a significant role beyond mere leisure activities, contributing to personal social image management and relationships with others.
However, the study’s limitation lies in its focus on audiences in the metropolitan area, making it challenging to generalize the research findings. Future research should expand the scope of participants and utilize research designs that can reflect emotions and thoughts immediately after performances to derive more comprehensive research results.
Double Discrimination: Attitudes toward Syrian and Ukrainian Immigrant Entrepreneurs' Job Postings in Türkiye
Authors: Pehlivanlı Edib Ali
Published: August 2024

This study uses a vignette experiment to examine the discriminatory attitudes towards immigrant entrepreneurs. The aim is to assess how biases based on ethnicity affect the job application intentions directed towards immigrant entrepreneurs, specifically comparing those from Syria and Ukraine with their Turkish counterparts. The research addresses several objectives: to determine whether discriminatory practices against immigrant entrepreneurs differ from those faced by immigrant workers; to explore the presence and nature of discrimination against immigrant entrepreneurs in Türkiye, including taste-based and statistical forms of discrimination; to investigate potential double discrimination between entrepreneurs of Middle Eastern (Syria) and European (Ukraine) origins; and to analyze whether ethnic cues in job advertisements influence job application intentions. Findings reveal that immigrant entrepreneurs experience significant discrimination, with Syrian entrepreneurs facing more bias compared to Ukrainians, influenced by geopolitical and cultural factors. This study offers a new perspective by examining how potential applicants respond to job advertisements from immigrant entrepreneurs, differing from previous research on discrimination faced by immigrant workers. The results highlight the need for inclusive policies and practices to support immigrant entrepreneurs and enhance their participation in the Turkish economy, contributing to a more equitable and diverse entrepreneurial landscape.

Published: August 2024

Relevance. The research relevance of the worldview of independence and freedom among the poets of the Abai region is determined by cultural uniqueness, cultural exchange and discussion of human rights in a globalising world. Purpose. The study aims to analyse the worldview of independence among the authors of the Abai region, determining the role of their work in creating a cultural identity and interaction with the global literary and cultural tradition. Methodology. The contextual and intertextual analyses enriched the understanding of independence and freedom in the poems of the Abai region poets, connecting them to personal and global contexts. Results. The study determined that independence combines not only individual freedom of action but also the recognition of social ties, emphasising the role of personal decisions in the social context. The analysis of poems by poets from the Abai region reveals a unique interweaving of cultural heritage and modern views on freedom and independence, full of philosophical reflections and national symbolism. The texts address the themes of self-determination, personal freedom and socio-political issues, presenting poetry as a means of discussing social problems and expressing the desire for change. Conclusions. The intertextual analysis of Abai poetry shows its close connection with world literary trends, revealing how global cultural trends are harmoniously combined with the uniqueness of Kazakh literature. The influence of Romanticism, Symbolism and Modernism is particularly emphasised, enriching the texts with the idealisation of nature and symbolic studies. Local authors are actively adapting and reinterpreting these influences, creating multi-layered works that reflect both the personal and social aspects of contemporary Kazakh society, demonstrating a significant contribution to the global literary tradition. Keywords: personal freedom; social and political criticism; romanticism; symbolism; modernism

Published: August 2024

Accurate measurement of crop yields in smallholder farming systems, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, is a pressing issue for agricultural research. Despite the widespread use of crop yield data in farm research and policymaking, there are significant challenges in generating valuable and accurate data regarding quality, quantity, and reliability, particularly in sub-Saharan African agriculture. The methodological choice of different yield estimation approaches and their suitability for context-specific settings is also not well understood. This review addresses these gaps by providing a comprehensive and qualitative overview of widely applied yield estimation approaches for grains in smallholder agriculture and analysing their trade-offs and suitability for context-specific farming systems. Additionally, key factors influencing the accuracy and variability of yield estimates in smallholder farms are discussed. By analysing these factors, this paper provides valuable insights for establishing benchmarks in crop production within smallholder farming systems, which is essential for making informed recommendations and decisions in agricultural research. The findings of this review are crucial for informing agricultural research and guiding decision-making, thereby contributing to the improvement of smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa.

Amrasca biguttula (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is a major pest of cotton in Côte d’Ivoire. It reduces cotton yield despite pesticide spraying. This study carried out to evaluate the efficacy of new insecticides against A. biguttula in Odienné farms. Ten cotton hectares were established for field trials in 2021-2022 and 2022-2023. Each hectare was divided into two equal parts treated with one control insecticide and with one insecticide tested, respectively. A. biguttula adults and cotton yield of each treatment was evaluated. The results showed that JACOBIELLA 350 EC®Pyridine 200 g/L + Diamine 150 g/L, INDOXAN DUO 225 EC®Indoxacarb 125 g/L + Acetamiprid 100 g/L, Zidane 30 W®Flonicamide 30 g/kg, STINGER 500 WG®Flonicamide 500 g/kg, FLASHROLE PLUS 175 O®Flubendiamide 100g/L+ Spirotetramate 75 g/L, NICOMEDE 500 W®Flonicamide 500 g/kg, Tsunamide 280 OD®Flonicamide 200 g/L + Flubendiamide 80 g/L, FLOMID MAX®Flonicamide 250 g/kg + rzth 100 g/kg, CYCLODAN 42%®O,o-dimethyl s-phthalimidomethyl and GARANT 200 WG®Acetamiprid 100 g/L + Lambdacyhalothrin 100 g/L were effective against A. biguttula. Their reduction rate of A. biguttula on cotton plants were higher than 50%. CORONI 672EC®, Dangoro 112EC® and CYPALM P 336EC® reduction rate was lower than 50%. THIAN 175 O-TEQ®, THALIS 112EC®, ATTAKAN 344SC®, EMERIT 112EC® and Coxytrine 672EC® were not effective against A. biguttula. The highest yields were recorded with FLOMID MAX® (1805 kg/ha), CYCLODAN® 12% (1716 kg/ha) and ZIDANE 30W® (982 kg/ha). Flonicamid, pyridine and diamine, indoxacarb and acetamiprid can be used against A. biguttula in cotton crops.

The African wild diploid cotton species, Gossypium longicalyx Hutch. & Lee. (2n = 2x = 26, F1F1) presents many valuable traits that can be introduced into Gossypium hirsutum to enhance its narrow genetic basis. To assess the possibility of using monosomic alien addition line (MAAL) of G. longicalyx in G. hirsutum in an interspecific breeding program, the progeny of ten MAALs was characterized. Chromosome counting allowed to identify the addition of single alien chromosome in 9 of the 10 lines studied. The analysis of the chromosome configurations at metaphase showed the presence of multivalent associations involving the supernumerary chromosome of G. longicalyx, indicating the occurrence of recombination between the G. longicalyx and G. hirsutum chromosomes. The use of microsatellite markers provided evidence of multiple introgressions of G. longicalyx DNA in the recipient species. It appeared from the SSR analysis that only four different supernumerary alien chromosomes were present in the studied MAALs. These results confirm the low genetic distance existing between the chromosomes of G. longicalyx and those of Ah sub-genome. They highlight the opportunities and constraints associated with the use of G. longicalyx in a breeding program of upland cotton.

Climate change is likely to affect the distribution of species worldwide. Understanding how these changes affect species distribution is important for planning conservation strategies and sustainable management methods. Adansonia digitata L. is of major ecological and socio-economic importance in Malawi, South Africa, but is highly threatened in its habitat. This work aims to investigate the effect of climate change on the ecological niche of Baobab and to find suitable habitats for its conservation and cultivation in Malawi. The distribution of this species was modeled using a maximum entropy algorithm (MaxEnt) based on 21 environmental variables and the occurrence of 480 species. Habitat prioritization was performed using Zonation software. Our results show that the variable contributing most significantly was the warmest month (47%), followed by isotherms (13.9%) and precipitation of the coldest quarter (8.6%). Under the current model, 1.17% of Malawi’s territory is highly favorable for baobab development. A slight increase of 0.09% and 0.38% in highly favorable zones is predicted by 2055 under scenarios SSP370 and SSP 585, respectively. Southern Malawi and parts of the Central region should be prioritized in baobab reforestation policies to optimize conservation and value chain sustainability for baobab. Under the current model, 1.17% of Malawi will be highly favorable for baobab. A slight increase of 0.09 % and 0.38 % in highly favorable zones is predicted by 2055 under scenarios SSP 370 and SSP 585, respectively. Priority areas (98-100%) for conservation and cultivation of Baobab was a male located in the Southern region (34.51%) and central (7.62%), in contrast to the Northern region (0.21%). Our results suggest that climate change causes the reduction and shift of suitable habitats for species along a south-north gradient. These findings highlight the urgent need to incorporate climate change projections into conservation plans. Identifying and prioritizing suitable habitats in the southern and central regions is crucial for effective conservation and sustainability.

Chlorpyrifos (CP), a widely used organophosphate in Kenya, poses significant human health risks due to its high solubility. This study aimed to isolate CP-degrading bacteria from dairy farm soils in Nakuru County and develop bacterial consortia for efficient degradation. Soil samples were collected from six sub-counties: Molo, Njoro, Rongai, Subukia, Gilgil, and Naivasha. The enrichment culture technique using minimal salt medium (MSM) was employed to isolate CP-degrading bacterial strains. Seven bacterial strains were identified: Alcaligenes faecalis, Bacillus weihenstephanensis, Bacillus toyonensis, Alcaligenes sp., Pseudomonas sp., Pseudomonas japonicum, and Brevundimonas diminuta. Bacillus weihenstephanensis exhibited the highest individual degradation efficiency at 79.8%. Consortia treatments demonstrated enhanced degradation, with consortia M1, M2, and M3 achieving removal efficiencies of 91.3%, 92.48%, and 93.76%, respectively, and M5 achieving 95.32%. The study also monitored 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP), a CP metabolite, showing that consortia treatments significantly reduced TCP levels to near initial concentrations. Kinetic analysis revealed consortia had significantly shorter half-lives for CP degradation compared to individual isolates, indicating improved bioremediation potential. The findings underscore the potential of using tailored bacterial consortia for effective bioremediation of CP-contaminated environments. Future research should focus on field trials to validate these laboratory findings under real-world conditions and explore the genetic and enzymatic mechanisms underlying CP degradation.
