Published: August 2023

La investigación tuvo como objetivo realizar la caracterización fisicoquímica y microbiológica de los cuerpos de agua, de las fincas que forman parte del proyecto “Sistema de producción Agrosilvopastoril…”, localizadas en la parroquia La Belleza, cantón Francisco de Orellana. El estudio fue descriptivo y de diseño transversal, porque se analizarán datos de varios parámetros de muestras puntuales. Los resultados indicaron que los cuerpos de agua de la finca la Belleza superan los límites máximos de cobre y coliformes fecales, mientras que el pH se encuentra por debajo del límite mínimo establecido. En conclusión, se obtuvo que la mayoría de los puntos de muestreo de las fincas, superan los límites máximos de coliformes fecales, establecidos en el Acuerdo Ministerial 097-A, y los límites del hierro. Por lo cual se considera que los cuerpos de agua de estas fincas no son aptos para uso pecuario, excepto el agua procedente del punto FJCTM1.

Transformer and Influencer: Giovanni Battista Ramusio’s Impact on Western European Geography
Authors: Small Margaret
Published: August 2023

In the mid-sixteenth century, the study of cosmography was in a state of upheaval in Western Europe, for the European voyages of exploration had disrupted the old ideas of the nature and structure of the world. As a consequence, cosmographers and geographers struggled to accommodate the ever-expanding influx of new empirical knowledge into their works. In the 1550s the Venetian Giovanni Battista Ramusio compiled the Navigationi et viaggi, initiating a new form of geography which endeavoured to present a world cosmography through the eyes of travellers, ideally transmitting the knowledge gained from an age of exploration. In framing his work, Ramusio used both his knowledge of the classics and his humanist editorial skills, while his tests for inclusion derived from attested observation. Over seventy narratives, originally written in a variety of languages, were presented by Ramusio in vernacular Italian and skilfully woven together with intervening Discorsi, written by Ramusio by way of commentary. Ramusio’s forensic editorial skills, mastery in acquiring texts which had hitherto seen little or no printed circulation, diligence in translating, editing and presenting them in an accessible format made his work invaluable. Proposals to republish it in French or English, however, never came to fruition; therefore, scholars had to turn to the vernacular Italian for the information. The article examines how theNavigationi et viaggi became a bedrock of European geographical knowledge examining, in particular, its use by the English geographer John Dee and the French cosmographer royal, André Thevet. It shows how the travellers’ tales, mediated through the hands of a sedentary Venetian, crisscrossed Europe and became fundamental in creating a new geographical understanding dependent on the words of the eyewitness.
Theatrum vitae humanae: Shakespeare’s Cosmographic Imagination
Authors: Laroque François
Published: August 2023

The article argues that maps and woodcuts in the numerous cosmographic works published in the course of the sixteenth century were an important source of inspiration for Shakespeare. The Globe playhouse, erected in Southwark in 1599, was the equivalent of a theatrum mundi where ‘men and women [were] only players’ (As You Like It). In its own way, it allowed the groundlings to be exposed and to understand something of the many cosmographic books that then circulated amongst a restricted élite. On the other hand, these texts and their superb illustrations gave an idea of yet unknown countries and people and stimulated the playwright’s as well as the spectators’ imagination. The metaphoric links established between the human body and cartography, as in Münster’s representation of Europe in his Cosmographia universalis, provided an intriguing extension of the then fashionable art of blazoning and counter-blazoning. Finally, map and globe became structurally related to each other, the word ‘globe’ serving to designate both head and skull, thus allowing painters like Holbein or the anonymous author of the Fool’s Cap Map to illustrate this idea in a compressed, small-scale and fairly cryptic representation of the links between macro and microcosm.

Spatial Dependence of Poverty Rate and Socio-Economic Indicators in Nigeria: An Empirical Analysis
Authors: Ajao Isaac Oluwaseyi , Jemilohun Vincent , Awogbemi Clement Adeyeye
Published: August 2023

This study investigates the spatial dependence between the poverty rate and various socio-economic indicators in Nigeria. The analysis is based on a dataset comprising unique geographic identifiers and the poverty rate along with other relevant variables. Descriptive statistics reveal that the poverty rate exhibits moderate variability with an average of 4.1240. The correlation analysis shows significant relationships between the poverty rate and household size as well as income level, indicating that larger households and higher incomes are associated with higher and lower poverty rates, respectively. Spatial regression models, including Spatial Autoregressive (SAR), Spatial Error (SEM), Spatial Durbin (SDM), and Spatial Autoregressive Conditional (SAC) models, are employed to explore the spatial dependence. Results indicate the presence of spatial clustering and positive autocorrelation in the poverty rate, as indicated by the Moran's I index with a value of 0.3579 (p-value = 0.0012). However, tests for spatial heteroscedasticity do not reveal significant departures from the assumption of constant error variance. The findings suggest that spatial factors play a crucial role in explaining the poverty rate in Nigeria. The positive spatial autocorrelation indicates the presence of localized poverty clusters, emphasizing the importance of considering spatial effects in policy formulation and targeted interventions. The significant relationships between the poverty rate and household size and income level underscore the need for comprehensive strategies to address these socio-economic indicators for poverty reduction.

The aim of the review is to describe a control of pests by microorganisms and its possible effect on bees, other pollinators and beekeeping. Biological control seems to be a natural way to solve the problem with pests in agriculture as an alternative to the use of pesticides. However, the proposed solution must be closely associated with the safety to pollinators, which are an important part of plant production as well as forest ecosystems. Entomopathogenic bacteria (mainly bacilli) and entomopathogenic fungi (e.g., Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae) are often used to suppress the pests in agriculture. The application of entomopathogenic microsporidia is controversial because their frequent representatives are pollinators' pests. Moreover, biocontrol can be applied in the form of pollinator strips near the fields with monocultures resulting in plant and pollinator protection. In some countries, bees are also used as biovectors of control agents for the plant protection in the fields. On the other hand, specific pests pose a threat to bees themselves in the hives. Varoosis is a problem in beekeeping all over the world. The suppression of bee pests using microorganisms was tested. An activity of Beauveria bassiana against Varroa destructor shows promising results. Surprisingly, Beauveria bassiana can be isolated from cadavers of Galleria mellonella larvae, another bee pest, which destroy wax combs. Therefore, understanding of various links between the organisms could be helpful for sustainable beekeeping. Overall, humans are more conscious that everything is connected to each other. Protecting agents designed on natural basis often possess excellent results in practice. Therefore, testing them is more than desirable.

This study was conducted to compare three non-linear growth models (Logistics, Gompertz and Von Bertalanffy) in describing the growth of 360 turkeys of three genotypes (exotic, crossbred and local). The growth curve parameters - A, B and K for each growth model were estimated for each turkey using the NLIN procedure (Marquart algorithm) for the Bayesian approach with a fixed-effect model. The best fit of the three models was also estimated. A comparison was done among the three models using Akaike Information Criteria (AIC) and the Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC). Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (r), the correlation coefficient, was used to examine the linear relationship between two quantities, A and K growth model parameters. For comparison of growth models parameter predicted, the Von Bertalanffy's model predicted the smallest value in both criteria for all the male and local female turkeys, while Gompertz's growth model had the smallest predicted value in both criteria for the female exotic and female crossbred turkeys. Based on the goodness of fit using the Bayesian Model Choice Criteria (Deviance Information Criteria), Von Bertalanffy's growth model showed the best fit. However, the difference between Bertalanffy's and Gompertz's growth models is very minimal, thus, making both models suitable for modeling the growth curve of domestic turkey and to consider how this weight is attained.

Published: August 2023

Seven weeks old weaned pigs (Yorkshire x Landrace, n = 32, mean weight = 12.32 ± 0.59 kg) were allotted to 4 treatments (diets) consisting of 8 replicates each: diet A − basal diet; diet B − basal + ascorbic acid at 1 g.kg-1 diet; diet C − basal + ascorbic acid at 2 g.kg-1 diet; and diet D − basal + ascorbic acid at 3 g.kg-1 diet. Growth performance, economic indices, haematological parameters, serum biochemistry and carcass characteristics were measured. After 49 days, the pigs on diet with ascorbic acid at 2 g.kg-1 had significantly higher daily feed intake (1.54 kg per pig) (p < 0.05). The feed cost per kg increased significantly (p < 0.05) across the diets from the control (Nigerian naira, ₦ 97.60) to basal + ascorbic acid at 3 g.kg-1diet (₦ 103.50). Significantly higher (p < 0.05) red blood cell, haemoglobin, haematocrit and mean corpuscular volume values were recorded in pigs fed ascorbic acid at 2 g.kg-1 diet, while pigs fed ascorbic acid at 3 g.kg-1 diet had the highest cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose, creatinine, urea, total protein and globulin (p < 0.05) levels. Pigs offered ascorbic acid had significantly higher bleed weight, carcass weight, belly, abdominal fat, back fat thickness and whole and empty stomach weight than those fed the control diet. It can be concluded that vitamin C supplementation (up to 3 g.kg-1) had no negative impact on the growth performance and economic indices (except the feed cost) of the pigs, while it improved the haematological parameters and carcass weight and also enhanced fat deposition.

This study evaluates the growth performance, body linear parameters and egg quality of Yoruba ecotype chicken and their F1 and F2 crosses using Lohmann brown cocks under a low-input management system. Ten Lohmann brown cocks were mated with thirty indigenous hens to obtain the F1 progenies. Ten Lohmann cocks were also mated back to thirty F1 hens to obtain the F2 progenies. Also, ten indigenous male cocks were mated with 30 indigenous female hens as a basis for comparison. Mating was done at 1:3 in all the groups. Incubation and hatching were naturally done and properly monitored. After hatching, the hens and the chicks were intensively managed for 8 weeks in wooden cages, after which the chicks were transferred to battery cages, where they were raised till maturity. Initial weight at hatching, body weight at 24 weeks, average daily feed intake, body weight at initial egg laying and first egg weight were recorded appropriately, while the body linear parameters (shank length, comb length, keel length, back length, beak length, neck length and drumstick) were measured using standard procedures. Some selected egg quality parameters included egg weight, egg length, egg breadth, shell weight and albumen weight. Weight at hatching, body weight at 24 weeks, average daily feed intake, body weight at initial egg laying and first egg weight were significantly (P < 0.05) higher in F2 birds than in F1 birds, while F1 birds had higher values compared to the indigenous birds. The F2 birds also had significantly (P < 0.05) higher egg weight, egg length, egg breadth, shell weight, shell thickness, albumen height, albumen weight, yolk length and yolk weight than F1 birds. This study showed that the F1 and F2 progenies performed better in growth, body linear parameters and the egg quality parameters compared to the indigenous chicken. It can, therefore, be concluded that crossbreeding of indigenous chicken with Lohmann breed is beneficial for improving their growth performance and egg quality parameters, thereby enhancing their productivity.

The fibrous nature of ground corn cobs limited their utilization in poultry production. Zymomonas mobilis derivable from fresh palm sap is proposed to ferment corn cobs to improve their nutritive values. An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of ground corn cobs inoculated with Zymomonas mobilis (CCZ) on growth response, apparent nutrient digestibility and ileal digesta viscosity of broiler chickens. Five diets containing treated and untreated corn cobs were formulated to replace wheat offal at 0, 50 and 100 % levels on weight for weight basis. A total of three hundred and seventy-five 1-day-old unsexed Marshall broiler chickens were randomly allotted to the five dietary treatments in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD). Results showed that the biodegradation of corn cobs resulted in improved (p < 0.05) nutrient composition, crude protein increased by 63.90 % while the crude fibre decreased by 137.89 % after fermentation with Zymomonas mobilis. The broiler chickens fed 100 % CCZ had the lowest (p < 0.05) values for feed conversion ratio (FCR) at both phases. The 50 % CCZ improved (p < 0.05) crude fibre digestibility (CFD) at the finisher phase. However, 50 % and 100 % CCZ reduced (p < 0.05) the ileal digesta viscosity of the broiler chickens. The birds fed 100 % CCZ had the highest (p < 0.05) values of rate of return on investment, economic efficiency and relative cost-benefit. The study concluded that wheat offal could be replaced with 50 % and 100 % CCZ in the ration of broiler chickens with positive economic returns.

Published: August 2023

The stock market reveals the economic condition of the country. Without investors investing in the stock exchange, there would be no existence of a stock market. A stock-market is a public entity for the trading of company stock and derivatives at an agreed price; these are securities listed on a stock exchange as well as those only traded privately. This research is intended to be a valuable source of knowledge, the public, educational institutions, and potential investors. The purpose of this study is to assess business college students' knowledge of stock market products, investment avenues, institutions, and services. The objective is to evaluate the perception of the business college students on the role of the media and other means in spreading stock-market knowledge. The data was collected through the questionnaire using an online survey. The study involves a quantitative method and the data is computed and tested using SPSS 25. The tools used for analyzing the data were descriptive tools and ANOVA. According to the findings, Colleges have a low level of awareness about SM products and investment/saving opportunities. The respondents agree that stock-market modules should be introduced, seminars should be conducted at all educational levels, etc. The study revealed that the students of business colleges are aware of the stock market as an investment platform, so they prefer and are interested in investing in SM. With the responses to the awareness of stock-market processes and institutions, the average awareness of the students is high, which indicates that the students among three business colleges have knowledge of SM risk and return. Moreover, it reveals that they are aware of the SM process, which indicates that the students are capable of investing in the future. Furthermore, the students are not that aware of the SM products and investment/saving avenues, but overall, the students are a little more aware of SM products than the investment/saving avenues.

The study is devoted to the study of international experience in the protection of trade secrets in the leading countries of the world. The purpose of the study is a comparative analysis of the features of international experience in protecting the commercial secrets of corporations. The methodological basis of the study was the use of methods of comparative analysis, methods of analysis and synthesis, as well as an expert survey and a graphic method for presenting the results of the study. The main results of the study are the systematization of commercial information according to the degree of protection, as well as the generalization of the practice of the EU member states regarding the protection of commercial secrets. The main ways of disclosing information constituting a commercial secret are classified: communication of the specified information to other persons, in particular to competitors; providing documents containing information constituting a commercial secret to other persons for perusal; notification of the above-mentioned information in mass media, etc. Systematized measures for the protection of confidential information constituting a commercial secret, namely: organizational, legal, physical, technical and psychological. Organizational measures include a set of measures to protect information that is important for the enterprise by restricting access to it. Technical means involve the use of special programs and equipment that make it impossible to view and/or copy important electronic information. Legal measures involve bringing the internal documents of the corporation into compliance by making appropriate additions to them. The study presents the results of a survey of representatives of EU commercial structures regarding the leakage of trade secret information and tools for protection against leakage.
Cognition damage due to disruption of cyclic adenosine monophosphate-related signaling pathway in melatonin receptor 2 knockout mice
Authors: Huang He-Zhou , Wang Xiang , Liu Dan
Published: August 2023

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) was characterized by the presence of neurofibrillary tangles and senile plaques. Although melatonin plays an important role in AD, its mechanism is still unknown. In this study, we found obvious cognition damage in melatonin receptor 2 knockout mice (MT2KO) and double knockout mice (DKO), but not in melatonin receptor 1 knockout mice (MT1KO). To explore the mechanism in-depth, we attempted to determine the levels of metabolites and amyloid-β peptide (Aβ). A high level of Cho/tCr (choline/total creatine) was detected in MT2KO and MT1KO by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), while a high level of myo-inositol/total creatine (mI/tCr) was only detected in MT1KO. A higher ratio of Aβ42/40 was found in MT2KO, but not in MT1KO and DKO. We also found an abnormal increase of plaque detected by the A3981 antibody in MT2KO and DKO. Furthermore, a huge decrease of postsynapses was confirmed in MT2KO and DKO, but not MT1KO, accompanied by a low level of phosphorylated cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) response element-binding protein (CREB) at the site of serine 133 and a low activity of protein kinase A. Finally, the cAMP, cyclic guanosine monophosphate, and cAMP-regulated guanine nucleotide exchange factor (EPAC) were detected. We observed a significant decrease of cAMP and EPAC2 in MT2KO, but not MT1KO. Thus, we identified that cAMP-related signaling pathway was disturbed in MT2KO and was critical for normal cognitive function.

Conventionally, the microorganisms in liquid herbal mixtures are curtailed due to the fresh preparation before the administration to patients. Prolonged storage of liquid herbal preparations (due to commercialization) coupled with primeval routine production processes may increase the potential of microbial contamination in liquid herbal preparations. This study aims to analyze the microbial quality of 15 selected commercial liquid herbal preparations on the Ghanaian market. The samples were obtained from accredited pharmacies and herbal outlets in the Greater Accra region of Ghana, specifically Central Accra, between November 2019 and January 2020. The selected samples were coded HM1 to HM15. The effectiveness of the primary package of all samples was determined using the seal integrity test. The presence of microorganisms in the sampled brands was determined using nutrient agar. Isolated microorganisms from the sampled herbal mixtures were then identified using various selective media. All 15 samples (100%) passed the seal integrity test. Ten (67%) out of the 15 samples were contaminated with various microorganisms, whereas the remaining 5 samples (33%) were devoid of microorganisms. Eight (53%) out of the 15 samples were contaminated with fungi, with 3 (20%) being above the pharmacopeial limit. Six (40%) out of the 15 samples showed the presence of Escherichia coli. Out of the 15 sampled products, only HM11 contained Staphylococcus aureus. Similarly, only one sampled product (HM15) contained Salmonella typhi. None of the sampled products was contaminated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Ultimately, this study revealed that commercialized liquid herbal preparations in Ghana are likely to be contaminated with pathogenic microorganisms. Good manufacturing practices must therefore be strictly adhered to bring out the best in local herbal manufacturing industries.

Analiza ekosystemu tożsamości cyfrowej w Polsce, stopnia jego wdrożenia i zastosowanie dowodów osobistych z warstwą elektroniczną

Harmonizacja wiedzy i procesów związanych z tożsamością elektroniczną w Polsce i Europie jest wyzwaniem z uwagi na ciągłe zmiany legislacyjne i techniczne w tym obszarze, jak również brak ugruntowanych źródeł wiedzy i kampanii edukacyjnych. Temat cyfrowej tożsamości, chociaż dotyczy każdego obywatela, nie jest wystarczająco obecny w debatach publicznych – dlatego zdecydowaliśmy się na zgłębienie tego zagadnienia i zaprezentowanie go jak najszerszemu gronu odbiorców.

Na przestrzeni ostatnich lat powstały różne usługi zaufania, udostępniane publicznie i komercyjnie. Zostały one ze sobą zintegrowane i pozwalają uprościć wiele zadań z zakresu weryfikacji tożsamości, zawierania umów, składania wniosków czy przekazywania danych osobowych.

W książce analizujemy poszczególne elementy składowe ekosystemu usług cyfrowych w Polsce i pokazujemy, jak korzystać z nich efektywnie. Prezentujemy, jak działa i co oferuje nowy dowód osobisty z warstwą elektroniczną (e-dowód), w jaki sposób wykorzystywać podpisy elektroniczne i je łatwo weryfikować, czym jest portfel tożsamości mObywatel i co oferuje oraz jak będzie wyglądać koncepcja europejskiego portfela tożsamości EUDI Wallet.
