Published: June 2024

The present study was carried out during 2019–20 and 2020–21 at the research farm of ICAR-Directorate of Rapeseed-Mustard Research, Bharatpur, Rajasthan to scale out the conservation agriculture (CA) practices in Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.]-based cropping systems for enhancing production and farm profitability. Experiment was conducted in the split-plot design (SPD) after randomization, and replicated three times in the permanent plots. The treatment comprised of 3-tillage and crop residue re-cycling [permanent beds with residue (PB+R); zero tillage with residue (ZT+R); and conventional tillage without residue (CT-R)] in main-plots; and 6-oilseed brassica-based cropping systems [Fallow-mustard (F-M); Cluster bean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.]-mustard (CB-M); Greengram [Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek-mustard (GG-M); Maize (Zea mays L.)-mustard (Mz-M); Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.]-mustard (PM-M); and Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.)-mustard (S-M)] in sub-plots. The mean mustard seed yield increased 28 and 11% under permanent beds with residue (PB+R) and zero tillage with residue (ZT+R) compared to conventional tillage without residue (CT-R), respectively. The mean seed yield of kharif crops also increased by 37.1 and 31.7% in the PB+R and ZT+R compared to CT-R, respectively. The maize-mustard (Mz-M) cropping system recorded significantly higher yield of mustard across the years followed by greengram-mustard (GG-M) cropping system. The mean mustard equivalent yield (MEY) increased by 33.4 and 24.2% in PB+R and ZT+R over the CT-R, respectively. The total system grain yield (TSGY) also increased by 29.6 and 14.7% in the PB+R and ZT+R over the CT-R, respectively. Among the cropping systems, GG-M followed by Mz-M system recorded highest MEY and TSGY in both the years. The Mz-M cropping system under PB+R recorded maximum net returns and B:C ratio which was higher by 40.7 and 41.1 compared to traditional F-M cropping system under CT-R, respectively. Thus, CA-based Mz-M/GG-M system should be out scaled in the traditional rainfed mustard based production system to improve the farm production and income on holistic basis to increase the edible oil production in the country.

The interaction between the teaching-service-community of undergraduate dental students, made possible through preceptorship, can enable students to have contact with practice in the Unified Health System. The preceptor guides clinical care, and the activities carried out during professional practice with the preceptor range from simple to more complex procedures and have comprehensive patient care as their guiding principle. The aim of this study was to report on the activities carried out during the preceptorship of the dentistry course in a family health unit. This is a descriptive experience report, carried out in April 2024 by the dental surgeon preceptor and a dental student at a family health unit. There were 23 (19.8%) emergency appointments and 93 (80.2%) scheduled appointments, totaling 116 appointments in the month of practical activity. It can be seen that the majority of appointments were for scheduled demand, scheduled on an elective basis, but when necessary, emergency appointments were carried out, taking into account the resolution of the health need presented by the individual. 60 (51.7%) adult patients, 22 children (18.9%) and 11 elderly people (29.4%) were seen. Among the activities carried out were the treatment of alveolitis, pulpectomy, pulpotomy, abscesses, extraction of teeth, extraction of residual roots, access to the pulp chamber, removal of the nerve and referral to endodontics, making of veneers, prophylaxis, restorations, exodontia, cleaning of dental materials, participation in meetings and discussion of cases with the health team, health education activities in the waiting room. In this way, we believe that the practical activities carried out during the preceptorship of the dentistry course in a health unit were able to articulate theory-practice-living in service, as well as providing students with the opportunity to attend to various dental situations in all life cycles.

Although ameloblastic fibroma is a benign neoplasm, it has considerable rates of recurrence and malignant transformation into an ameloblastic fibrosarcoma. In this context, we seek to provide important information about the clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of this rare and challenging tumor. To this end, we present a case report of a 24-year-old patient with asymptomatic volume increase in the left mandibular region together with a Panoramic X-ray showing a multilocular radiolucent area involving the region of the ramus, angle and mandibular body associated with an impacted element 47. Initial clinical management was complementary exams accompanied by incisional biopsy under AL with anatomopathological result of Ameloblastic Fibroma, treatment of choice was enucleation + peripheral osteotomy of the lesion under AG. He is currently undergoing a one-year follow-up with no evidence of recurrence and healthy new bone formation at the site. Ameloblastic fibroma is a rare benign odontogenic lesion that has a high recurrence rate and potential for malignant transformation. The treatment of choice is enucleation and curettage, and resection with a safety margin may be necessary in cases of larger lesions and recurrences. Long-term follow-up is essential to monitor possible relapses. Therefore, treatment must be individualized, taking into account factors such as age, location, recurrences and postoperative patient morbidity.

Published: June 2024

This article explores the transformative integration of university extension and education within communities. Universities play a central role in society through three pillars: education, research, and extension. Historically, the emphasis was on research and teaching, with little consideration for the potential of university extension. The latter represents a vital force in the practical application of academic knowledge, promoting social engagement and community transformation. Originating in 19th-century England, university extension in Brazil began in the early 20th century, evolving into a participatory model that values community knowledge. During the democratization of the 1980s, university extension gained prominence with the creation of the National Forum of Extension Pro-Rectors (FORPROEX), which institutionalized and organized extension activities nationwide. The 1988 Constitution and the National Extension Plan (PNExt) reinforced the importance of extension, promoting the integration of teaching, research, and extension, and encouraging social transformation through knowledge. University extension provides an interface between research and community, promoting sociocultural development, entrepreneurship, and environmental sustainability. For students, participation in extension projects offers opportunities to apply theoretical knowledge in practical contexts, developing skills such as leadership and teamwork, and fostering social responsibility.

Realizing smart microgrid electricity solutions for rural communities using a hybrid microgrid system based on renewable energy sources
Authors: Jabbar Murtadha Hameed , Abdullah Ahmed Kareem , Ali Faris Mohammed
Published: June 2024

Hybrid renewable energy sources are combined in microgrids to feed rural areas and remote locations where grid power is unavailable. This study aims to feed remote areas and newly established projects or factories far from the power source using renewable energy sources to continuously satisfy various load demands and supply power. A smart microgrid design is proposed for a hybrid system that includes solar energy with an artificial neural network (ANN), a wind turbine, an energy storage system that stores energy in a photovoltaic battery and uses it when needed, and an emergency diesel generator. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach, a mobile generation station consisting of diesel generators, solar PV systems, wind turbines and an energy storage system that stores energy in a bank of batteries is designed as an additional service source in MATLAB Simulink. The model has a capacity of 1MW and can handle loads of up to 800KW. With ANN, a stable output voltage solar without ripples was obtained. Load priority algorithm (LPA) was also used to coordinate between three loads: High, Medium, and Low Load priority, and the actual diamond for each load was achieved. The first load with the highest priority was fed 100 %, and the remaining loads were fed to cover their needs, proving the design's validity. It demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed solution in mitigating power outages. The station can serve all loads by using renewable energy sources (RES) to meet the energy demands of the loads

Abstract. Research shows that leadership plays an important role in improving and reforming schools and education systems in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Mustiningsih, Maisyaroh, and Ulfatin 2019). In the context of the digital industrial revolution, leaders are not only responsible for academic performance and the proper functioning of schools but are also responsible for all activities carried out by schools (Kurniawan et al. 2023). This revolution includes automation and digitalization of all aspects of the industry to create products that meet consumer needs (Lanang Putra et al. 2021). This revolution also presents challenges for tax reform, including integrating various changes caused by digitalization and the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Mayasari and Narsa 2020). In the field of education, leadership abilities in understanding and using digital knowledge are very important to support learning activities in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Sugiarto and Dewantara 2021). The leadership qualities demonstrated by Christ are very important for pastors in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution to be able to lead effectively and overcome challenges (Eppang 2022). The fourth industrial revolution offers opportunities to increase savings and reduce consumption through the development of e-commerce and the digital economy (Suwardana 2018). In addition, this Revolution has also changed job design, job structure, and required skills, thereby increasing the demand for people with different skills (David 2021). Finally, business orientation, digital capabilities, leadership skills, and the environment influence business decisions (Justin and Handoyo 2023).
Challenges in the Analytical Characterization of VLPs Through HPLC-Based Methods

Published: June 2024

Characterization and quantification of virus-like particles (VLPs) through high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based methods are challenging because of their large size, structural complexity, internal structural heterogeneity, and instability. Analytical techniques are essential to monitor morphology and internal structural heterogeneity at each process stage. Common analytical tools used in VLP characterization are microscopic techniques (such as transmission electron microscopy [TEM], atomic force-field microscopy [AFM], cryo-electron microscope [cryo-EM]), biochemical techniques (SDS-PAGE, western blotting), and light scattering techniques (such as dynamic light scattering [DLS], nanoparticle tracking analysis [NTA], and size-exclusion chromatography coupled with multi-angle light scattering [SEC-MALS]). However, these techniques are semi-quantitative and do not address morphology and internal heterogeneity. Therefore, HPLC-based techniques are sensitive, robust, and offer better resolution. The purity and titer of VLPs at any process stage can be monitored by reversed-phase chromatography and morphology, and stability-related issues can be monitored by the combination of HPLC and light scattering techniques like SEC-MALS. Challenges in HPLC-based methods are choosing columns with the right pore size and surface chemistry and effective sample preparations, as VLPs are very unstable and prone to fragmentation at process stages and the low titre of the VLPs. This article discusses the challenges and effective solutions for HPLC-based analytical characterization of VLPs.

Published: June 2024

This study studied the technological process of pyrotechnic compositions based on red phosphorus (RP). In addition, the influence of the RP mixing method on thermal and mechanical characteristics was also investigated. Measurements such as scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) are used to evaluate the completeness of samples; Burning rate, burning temperature, and thermogravimetry/ differential thermal analysis (TG/DTA) are used to assess thermal characteristics; Compressive strength is used to determine compressive strength, in addition, ignition temperature and friction sensitivity are also used to evaluate the safety of samples. The results showed that the samples had good completion, and the compatibility of the ingredients in the pyrotechnic composition was high. Samples with RP mixed after granulation have high friction and temperature sensitivity but have better compressive strength than samples with 100% RP mixed before granulation. The samples have similar mass burning rates in the range of 0.035 - 0.063 g.cm-1, and the burning temperature of these samples is in the range of 1100 - 1500oC.
