Transformation of archetypes and symbolic images in the psyche through group psychotherapy. Case study (part two).
Authors: Lytvynenko O.D.
Published: June 2022

The article presents the second part of the description of the case analysis of a personal fairy tale, which was created in the process of group psychotherapeutic work. The personal tale was based on Jung's analytical approach.

The qualitative analysis made it possible to record changes in the psyche through the transformation of archetypical images and symbols. The archetype of Transformation is considered to be important for understanding the content of fairytales: changing and transforming personality under the influence of the integration of unconscious meanings. It was considered how the transformation of archetypical and symbolic images in the psyche initiates changes in individual psychological and characteristic behavioral characteristics.

It is established that the stages of the process of individualization according to    Jung, which we tried to examine on the example of the fairy tale are as follows: in the realization of Shadow and the integration of the senses of the personal unconscious represented in it; in the awareness and destruction of the Person, which distorts the true essence individually, distancing from the Person; clarifying the circumstances with Anima or Animus, establishing connections with the unconscious through integrated Anima/Animus; refusing to identify with the mana-personality archetype and assimilation of its meanings with self-determination;
Retrospective assessment of fathers’ parental attitudes and attachment styles among young adult women in Poland and Ukraine
Authors: Choda K. , Gorbaniuk J.
Published: June 2022

The aim of the study was to analyse the connection between retrospective assessment of fathers’ parental attitudes and attachment styles in close relationships of young adult women in Poland and Ukraine. Respondents completed Parental Attitudes Retrospective Assessment Questionnaire and Attachment Styles Questionnaire, both by Mieczyslaw Plopa. The study involved 116 women in Poland and 116 women in Ukraine. The results showed that women in Poland, were attached securely in their close relationships more often, when their fathers were accepting and autonomy-giving, and less overdemanding and inconsistent. Inconsistency, overdemandingness and lack of acceptance and autonomy of a father, conduced anxious-ambivalent attachment among their daughters. Avoidant attachment more often described women, whose fathers were inconsistent, rejecting and were not giving autonomy. Women in Ukraine were attached securely in their close relationships more often when their fathers were accepting, autonomy-giving, and overprotecting. Inconsistency of a father conduced anxious-ambivalent attachment among their daughters. Avoidant attachment more often described women, whose fathers were inconsistent and rejecting. The secure attachment style characterized more often women in Poland, and the avoidant one was manifested more frequently by women in Ukraine. Higher level of overprotection parental attitude was noticeable among women in Ukraine. The value of the studies undertaken, can be noticeable especially in the matters of developing conscious fatherhood in the contemporary family and among others in the functioning of partners in multi-ethnic relationships.
Fluorescein dihexanoate as a profluorescent marker for monitoring of hydrolytic descruction of polylactide-based materials
Authors: Belov Dmitry A. , Faletrov Yaroslav V. , Yakovets Polina S. , Shkumatov Vladimir M.
Published: June 2022

Polylactide (PLA) is one of the most promising biodegradable and biocompatible polymer materials. Estimation of hydrolytic destruction of PLA is of high importance for their applications both at planning and at real-time exploitation. This paper reports on synthesis and applicability of fluorescein-O-dihexanoate as a pro-fluorescent marker of hydrolytic destruction of two types of PLA-based materials. Fluorescence enhancement correlated with adequately more fast destruction of poly-D,L-lactide as well as less stability to alkaline hydrolysis. Thus, applicability of fluorescein-O-dihexanoate for fluorescence-based estimation of hydrolytic destruction of PLA-based materials is shown in quite real time mode.
The Institute of the Scientific Atheism and the transformation of the field of religious studies in the USSR in the 1960–80s
Authors: Metel Olga V.
Published: June 2022

This article examines the history of the opening of the Institute of Scientific Atheism of the Academy of Social Sciences under the Central Committee of the CPSU in the context of the transformation of Soviet religious studies in the mid 20th century. The author relies on a wide range of archival materials published and not previously introduced into scientific circulation. The author analyses the reasons for the emergence of the institution, examines the organisational units on the basis of which a new institution emerged. Close attention is paid to the reconstruction of the internal structure of the Institute of Scientific Atheism and its staff. Within the framework of the first of the named plots, the author studies both the evolution of problem groups of the institute and the peculiarities of the organisation of its regional branches, represented by support points and branches. Analysing the personnel structure of the Institute of Scientific Atheism, the author notes that its main feature is the active involvement of former party workers in the work of this center, who gradually acquired the necessary qualifications (in particular, candidate and doctoral dissertations). And although in the 1970–80s all employees of this center met the formal requirements for Soviet social scientists, the memory of the scientific community retained the names of only a few figures recognised as classics of Russian religious studies. Having reconstructed the main directions of research activities of the Institute of Scientific Atheism, the author comes to the conclusion that his employees were guided by the study of the most relevant and practically significant topics related to atheistic education or the religious situation in the modern world. That is why it was the activities of the Institute of Scientific Atheism that provided a significant narrowing of the research field of Soviet religious studies, which since the mid 1960s began to develop in the space of Soviet philosophy.
Unpredictable stability: the governor’s case in the Belarusian-Lithuanian Region under Paul I in 1796–1801
Authors: Lukashevich Andrei M.
Published: June 2022

The article presents a generalised portrait of civil governors of the Belarusian-Lithuanian Region under Paul I in 1796–1801. The social characteristics (origin, religion, age, educational level, career, awards) of eight Lithuanian, Belarusian and Minsk civil governors are analysed. The conditions and motives for the appointment and dismissal of these officials are established. It is noted that the governor corps of the Belarusian-Lithuanian Region under Paul I was characterised by both all-Russian tendencies (frequent turnover, a higher rank according to the Table of Ranks, the absence of a clearly established amount of pensions), and some features (regional and confessional affiliation, elderly age (50 years on average)). It is concluded that in the personnel policy, Paul I continued Catherine’s practice of appointing former military governors, which was explained both by political (disloyalty of part of the population) and ethno-confessional (Jews, Catholics, Uniates, Orthodox) features of the region. The daily life of governors is reconstructed on the basis of socio-cultural characteristics (number of duties, perception of time, personal qualities, material support, marital status and interests). It is concluded that the origin, patronage and military experience played an important role in the appointment. However, the duration of tenure under Paul I depended on the business qualities of the governors. It is noted that some bosses, having no managerial experience, made numerous mistakes. They led to dissatisfaction with the emperor and, as a result, to premature resignations. At the same time, the reign of Paul I turned out to be quite effective in the Belarusian-Lithuanian Region in terms of achieving managerial results.
On local invertibility of functions of an h-complex variable
Authors: Pavlovsky Vladislav A. , Vasiliev Igor L.
Published: June 2022

The theory of functions of an h-complex variable is an alternative to the usual theory of functions of a complex variable, obtained by replacing the rules of multiplication. This change leads to the appearance of zero divisors on the set of h-complex numbers. Such numbers form a commutative ring that is not a field. h-Holomorphic functions are solutions of systems of equations of hyperbolic type, in comparison with classical holomorphic functions, which are solutions of systems of equations of elliptic type. A consequence of this is a significant difference between the properties of h-holomorphic functions and the classical ones. Interest in studying the properties of functions of an h-complex variable is associated with the need to search for new methods for solving problems in mechanics and the plane theory of relativity. The paper presents a theorem on the local invertibility of h-holomorphic functions, formulates the principles of preserving the domain and maximum of the norm.
On the embedding of the Ω-saturation of a topological space
Authors: Biadrytski Aliaksandr S. , Timokhovich Vladimir L.
Published: June 2022

The countably-compactification of a topological space X is such its extension Y, that Y is a completely regular and countably-compact space, and any closed countably-compact subset of X is closed in Y. But this extension does not always exist. Due to this, the concept of a saturation of a topological space appeared, which is a generalisation of the countably-compactification: instead of the condition of the countably-compactness of Y, it is necessary that any infinite subset of X has a limit point in Y. Meanwhile, the second condition remains unchanged. Such an extension is already defined for any T1-space. In this paper we consider a specific construction of saturation named as Ω-saturation. It is proved that under some additional (necessary and sufficient) condition to the separation of the initial space X, its Ω-saturation is canonically embedded in the Stone – Čech compactification βX. An analogous result is obtained for the countably-compactification by K. Morita.
On the power of tests of multidimensional discrete uniformity used for statistical analysis of random number generators
Authors: Voloshko Valeriy A. , Trubey Anton I.
Published: June 2022

In this paper, we obtained the asymptotic power values for the statistical tests of multidimensional discrete uniformity under conditions of contiguous convergence of alternatives. Two versions of the test are considered, namely, with overlapping blocks (included in the NIST SP 800-22 test suit) and with non-overlapping blocks. The null hypothesis H0 is related to the so-called pure randomness of the observed sequence, i. e. independence and the same uniform distribution of its elements. An alternative H1 is assumed to be a Markov chain of some arbitrary fixed finite order.
An upper bound on binomial coefficients in the de Moivre – Laplace form
Authors: Agievich Sergey V.
Published: June 2022

We provide an upper bound on binomial coefficients that holds over the entire parameter range an whose form repeats the form of the de Moivre – Laplace approximation of the symmetric binomial distribution. Using the bound, we estimate the number of continuations of a given Boolean function to bent functions, investigate dependencies into the Walsh – Hadamard spectra, obtain restrictions on the number of representations as sums of squares of integers bounded in magnitude.
Estimation of the effective Young’s modulus for open cell porous titanium based on 3D Gibson – Ashby cell array
Authors: Nikitsin Andrei V. , Mikhasev Gennadi I.
Published: June 2022

The objective of study is to determine the effective Young’s modulus of open cell porous titanium based on the Gibson – Ashby model. Two novel models are proposed in the form of 3D Gibson – Ashby cell arrays with two variants for connecting vertical and horizontal beams – hinged support and rigid clamping. Calculations made on the basis of the developed models are compared with results of known models and literature data. It is proved the assumption that at high porosity, the deformation of samples occurs to a greater extent due to the deflection of horizontal beams, and with a decrease in porosity, the compressive deformation of vertical beams is playing an important role.
The structure of natural landscapes and its role in the development of the landscape zoning scheme of Belarus
Authors: Shchasnaya Iryna I. , Varabyou Dzmitry S.
Published: June 2022

The article presents the results of systematisation and mapping of the natural landscapes of Belarus, which domestic researchers have been engaged since the 1960s. During this time, considerable cartographic and literary material concerning the peculiarities of distribution, a set of classification units and zoning units, approaches to their allocation and mapping has been accumulated. However, the appearance at the beginning of the 21st century of new research methods along with the possibility of using modern technologies determined the need to refine and detail many cartographic landscape developments. At the same period (2006–2015), a series of 1 : 500 000 scale wall-mounted physical and geographical maps was created in Belarus and updated information was obtained about the features of the territorial distribution of a number of components of nature. The appearance of such information, along with the available data of remote sensing of the Earth and the possibility of application of geoinformation technologies, also allowed the development of new, detailed versions of maps of natural landscapes, both for institutions of higher and general secondary education using 6 classification units. One of them – map for institutions of higher education on a scale of 1: 500 000 – served as the basis for the analysis and identification of patterns of spatial distribution of natural territorial complexes in the rank of subtypes, groups of genera, genera and species of landscapes. An increase in the number of main classification units was found – genera (from 20 to 22) and species (from 105 to 107) – within the 2 subtypes, as well as a significant change in their area, boundaries and features of spatial distribution. The obtained results served as a basis for clarifying the distribution of regional complexes, which led to the compilation of a new version of the landscape zoning scheme. It was revealed that the number of provinces remained the same, their borders were clarified (the areas changed within 1–5 %) and names. The number of landscape districts has decreased from 56 to 53, their borders, areas and names have changed significantly.
Aerosynoptic conditions for the formation of winter thunderstorms on the example of the Minsk-2 airfield
Authors: Luksha Marina V. , Novik Aliaksei A.
Published: June 2022

In the conditions of modern climate warming, there is an increase in the number of hazardous weather phenomena, including thunderstorm activity, not only in the warm, but also in the cold season. The article analyses the occurrence of winter thunderstorms (October – March) and their connections with aerosynoptic conditions are revealed on the example of the Minsk-2 airfield for the period from 1989 to 2020. The determination of these relationships is necessary to make a qualitative forecast of thunderstorms as one of the hazardous weather phenomena for aviation. It was found that for the formation of winter thunderstorms requires the arrival of warm (with an air temperature above 0 °C) and moist air mass from the south or southwest, associated with the displacement of intensively deepening North Atlantic or southern cyclones in the stage of a young cyclone; the passage of primary and secondary active cold fronts with speeds of more than 30 km/h, cold fronts with waves and occlusion fronts, which provide the rise of warm and moist air of the lower troposphere; the existence of convective instability in the atmosphere; the presence tongue of warm and humid air, which is replaced by a trough of cold, at the level of 850 mb; the presence of low-jet currents and positive vorticity at the level of 700 mb and level of 500 mb, indicating the rise of an air particle; the presence of powerful jet currents of the western quarter at the level of 300 mb, enhancing convective processes. The obtained results can be used to replenish the methodological base on the forecasting of hazardous convective phenomena in Belarus, and also as recommendations for the forecast of thunderstorms in the cold season in the operational work of weather forecasters.

Authors: Escobar, PhD, LCSW, ACSW Romeo
Published: June 2022

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2018, suicide is a leading cause of death in the United States. Suicide rates have increased in almost every state in the United States from 1999 through 2016. For many individuals with suicidal ideations, mental health disorders are often seen as the cause of suicide; however, suicide is not only caused by a single factor. Studies have shown several factors contribute to suicide which may include but is not limited to relationship issues, substance use, physical health, job-related issues, money, legal, and/or housing stressors (CDC, 2018). Suicide is a public health crisis reaching epidemic proportions and has claimed the lives of more than 45, 000 individuals in the U.S. (Brodsky, Spruch-Feiner, & Stanley, 2018). Due to the increasing number of suicides, mental health practitioners must be clinically prepared to provide appropriate interventions to help prevent suicide. Thus, this paper aims to share some guidelines and/or tips for managing an individual with suicidal ideation from a practitioner’s perspective.
Monitoring Early Employment Security in Greece
Authors: Stamatopoulou Glykeria , Parsanoglou Dimitrios , Symeonaki Maria
Published: June 2022

In the present paper, the composite indicator of early employment security introduced in Symeonaki et al. (2022) is used to measure and monitor early employment security in Greece. The composite indicator is estimated for the year 2018 using raw data drawn from the European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS) and is compared with its values for the years 2008 and 2016 which mark the beginning and the end of the economic crisis given in Symeonaki et al. (2022). More specifically, ten indicators are estimated to refer to three different domains capturing the entire procedure of the school-to-work transition of a young individual. The domains refer to the conditions that young individuals might face when entering the labor market, i.e., the labor market conditions, the quality of jobs that are accessible to them, and the transition smoothness when transferring from education and/or training to the labor market. The composite indicator synopsizes the many facets of school-to-work transition and reveals a very slight improvement for the year 2018 when compared to the year 2016. Nonetheless, the value of the early employment security indicator a decade after the economic crisis is still behind its value in 2008, implying that the country had not fully recovered in 2018 about early job insecurity.

Authors: ONG YIN SING , TENG SING TUNG
Published: June 2022

Freshwater macrophytes exist in varied life forms for example, emergent, submerged, floating-leaved and free-floating, and some of them have a heterophylly or multiple forms. The intraspecific variation in terms of morphology is common phenomena in macrophytes population; however, specific studies on morphology of freshwater macrophytes are still insufficient, especially in Pontian, Johor. Hence, this study aimed to characterise the freshwater macrophytes based on morphometrics and descriptive characteristics as well as to document their diversity and population. Thus, the morphometric measurements were done, the descriptive characteristics were documented in scientific photographs, the population of freshwater macrophytes was also estimated by using quadrat estimation technique. Additionally, the morphometrics of some collected samples were compared with the same sample in other studies to show the variation in the range of different measurements, the descriptive characteristics were also described as well as the population estimation assessed by area coverage was analysed in the form of statistical chart. The finding in this study showed variation in morphometric data and no intraspecific variation on phenotype of freshwater macrophytes in Pontian, Johor’s water.

Published: June 2022

Karst landscape is recognised as one of the biologically important areas especially for bats. The limestone caves and forest within the landscape provide essential resources for the local bat fauna, albeit bat populations are severely threatened by anthropogenic disturbances occurring within and surrounding the ecosystem. In Sarawak, studies on bat diversity are biased towards protected areas, leaving aside non-protected areas including private lands such as Mount Silabur. Surveys on bat diversity were conducted at the limestone outcrop and the surrounding matrix of Mount Silabur with the primary aim of developing the first checklist of bats at Mount Silabur. A total of 27 species were recorded from 12 sampling nights representing approximately 34% of the total bat species recorded in Sarawak. The Cox’s Roundleaf Bat (Hipposideros coxi), a rare Bornean endemic species, was recorded from the cave system, signifying an important record for the area and also Sarawak. Furthermore, this is the sixth locality record for the species in Sarawak, Borneo. Interestingly, the total number of bat species recorded from Mount Silabur represented about 72% of the total bat species recorded (27 out of 38 species) from other major touristic caves in western Sarawak; Fairy Cave Nature Reserve and Wind Cave Nature Reserve. This warrants a need to develop an action plan to protect and conserve Mount Silabur cave system and the surrounding forest for its potential to serve as a shelter for bats and other cave and forest dependent taxa. The local community should implement and adhere to guidelines for cave related activities to minimise human driven disturbances on the ecosystem and its inhabitants.

Information on fisheries resources in East Malaysia is scarce and poorly known. The current review aims to compile a checklist of fisheries resources in the Northwest Borneo (Sarawak, Malaysia) from available published literature, address the resources' present status, and suggest future monitoring needs for selected critical species. The study also aims to determine several Sarawak land-use issues that are in flux and responsible for habitat degradation. Five hundred sixty-four species belonging to 123 families and 32 orders were recorded from Sarawak waters. Freshwater fish species comprised 48.0% of the total, followed by a marine (36.6%), marine-euryhaline (12.9%), and brackish water (2.5%) species. Of this, Cyprinidae was the most dominant group accounting for the greatest number of species (82 species), followed by Balitoridae (34 species), Bagridae (21 species) and Penaeidae (21 species). Therefore, available fisheries resources should be managed carefully as 48 species (9.0%) are currently vulnerable to extinction. Furthermore, the presence of 20 alien species in Sarawak water bodies also requires attention from the authorities due to the potential disruption of aquatic ecological balance. Changing land use issues in Sarawak such as forest degradation, agricultural expansion, peatland deforestation and conversion, logging, destruction of mangrove forests, and construction of hydroelectric power dams and flood mitigation channels pose significant challenges to fishery management in Sarawak. Our study documents the priority of fishery monitoring and conservation in Sarawak water bodies to ensure sustainable management of fisheries resources.

Abortion is the release of fetus in the uterus before 20 weeks or less than 5 months of pregnancy and the fetus weights less than 500 gram. In addition, the fetus still cannot live outside the uterus. The risky factors of abortion are mother’s age, parity, previous abortion history, education, occupation, and the distance of pregnancy with the previous pregnancy. The study is to investigate the frequency distribution of risk factors of spontaneous abortion of pregnant women at Panembahan Senopati Regional Public Hospital of Panembahan Senopati Bantul in 2017 – 2018. The study was analytic in type. The population of the study was 60 pregnant women. The samples of the study were 54 pregnant women. The samples were taken using total population. The analysis method was univariat analysis to reveal frequency distribution. The study revealed that 54 people experienced spontaneous abortion and 40 people (74.1%) experienced imminens abortion and 14 people (25.9%) experienced incompletes abortion. The risk factors of spontaneous abortion based on univariat analysis were non-risky age, safe parity 91, 2, and 3), non - spontaneous abortion history, non- anemic condition, educational level of senior high school, working status, and more than 2 years of pregnancy distance. It is suggested that health officers perform midwifery care on pregnant women experiencing spontaneous abortion.

PHOSPHONIC ACID MODIFICATION TO MOLYBDENUM ATOM CATALYST FOR CO2 HYDROGENATION ON MAGNESIUM HYDRIDE SURFACE
Authors: Manggada Gumawa Windu , Zhou Shixue
Published: June 2022

Catalytic hydrogenation is one of the most effective ways to convert CO2 to high value-added  chemicals, and it is challenging to improve the catalytic activity and product selectivity based on the  understanding of catalysis mechanism of the process. In this work, organic phosphonic acid was innovatively employed to tune single atom catalyst for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, and the  effect of fluoromethylphosphonic acid (FMPA) on the electronic structure of molybdenum and the  reaction energy barriers of CO2 hydrogenation on MgH2 surface were investigated by density  functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results showed that the reaction energy barriers at the key  steps were significantly decreased by the introduction of FMPA, which stabilized the reaction intermediates from CO2 hydrogenation by reducing the electron density of molybdenum adsorption  site with its oxygen atoms. The reverse water gas shift (RWGS) pathway was superior to formate  pathway for CO2 hydrogenation on FMPA/Mo-MgH2(001) surface with energy barrier only 1.22 eV at  the rate-determining step, and CH3OH was the overwhelming product rather than HCOOH, H2CO, CO  or CH4 considering the reaction barriers and adsorption energies. The combination of organic phosphonic acid with single atom catalyst can generate the rational design of new catalytic system, which is helpful to control the reaction pathway and product selectivity.

Published: June 2022

Aim: The accidents experienced in childhood are a public health problem due to their potential outcomes, and they require collaboration with family physicians. This study aimed to investigate the basic first aid approaches and knowledge levels of parents who bring their children to the outpatient clinics of the Department of Family Medicine and Social Pediatrics at Ankara University School of Medicine.

Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study conducted between 19 October 2020 and 16 November 2020 was approved by the Ankara University Human Research Ethics Committee. The data were collected face-to-face using a survey form and were analyzed using the IBM SPSS 15.0 package program.

Results: In this study, 229 parents in total were reached. 55.9% of the participants had first aid training and a higher rate of considering themselves adequate about first aid. The participants with first aid training, those with high income, those with high education levels, and those with a driver's license answered more questions correctly.

Conclusion: Although our study participants had relatively very high education levels, there were issues about which their first aid knowledge was lacking, and these results revealed the importance of providing parents with first aid training once again.

The Role of Synthetic Microbial Communities (SynCom) in Sustainable Agriculture
Authors: Shayanthan Ambihai , Ordoñez Patricia Ann C. , Oresnik Ivan John
Published: June 2022

Modern agriculture faces several challenges due to climate change, limited resources, and land degradation. Plant-associated soil microbes harbor beneficial plant growth-promoting (PGP) traits that can be used to address some of these challenges. These microbes are often formulated as inoculants for many crops. However, inconsistent productivity can be a problem since the performance of individual inoculants/microbes vary with environmental conditions. Over the past decade, the ability to utilize Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) approaches with soil microbes has led to an explosion of information regarding plant associated microbiomes. Although this type of work has been predominantly sequence-based and often descriptive in nature, increasingly it is moving towards microbiome functionality. The synthetic microbial communities (SynCom) approach is an emerging technique that involves co-culturing multiple taxa under well-defined conditions to mimic the structure and function of a microbiome. The SynCom approach hopes to increase microbial community stability through synergistic interactions between its members. This review will focus on plant-soil-microbiome interactions and how they have the potential to improve crop production. Current approaches in the formulation of synthetic microbial communities will be discussed, and its practical application in agriculture will be considered.
Label-Free Optical Detection of Pathogenic Bacteria and Fungi at Extremely Low Cell Densities for Rapid Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing

Antibiotic resistance is a rapidly expanding public health problem across the globe leading to prolonged hospital admissions, increased morbidity and mortality, and associated high healthcare costs. Effective treatment of bacterial infections requires timely and correct antibiotic administration to the patients which relies on rapid phenotyping of disease-causing bacteria. Currently, antibiotic susceptibility tests can take several days and as a result, indiscriminate antibiotic use has exacerbated the evolution and spread of antibiotic resistance in clinical and community settings. In order to address this problem, we have developed a novel optical apparatus that we called RUSD (Rapid Ultra-Sensitive Detection). RUSD is built around a hollow silica fiber and utilizes bacterial cells as spatial light modulators. This generates a highly sensitive modulation transfer function due to the narrow reflectivity angle in the fiber-media interface. We leveraged the RUSD technology to allow for robust bacterial and fungal detection. RUSD can now detect pathogenic cell densities in a large dynamic window (OD600 from ∼10−7 to 10−1). Finally, we can generate dose response curves for various pathogens and antimicrobial compounds within one to three hours by using RUSD. Our antibiotic- susceptibility testing (AST) assay that we call iFAST (in-Fiber-Antibiotic-Susceptibility-Testing) is fast, highly sensitive, and does not change the existing workflow in clinical settings as it is compatible with FDA-approved AST. Thus, RUSD platform is a viable tool that will expedite decision-making process in the treatment of infectious diseases and positively impact the antibiotic resistance problem in the long term by minimizing the use of ineffective antibiotics.

Bionic self-assembly hydrogel derived by peptide as an effective biomedical hemostatic agent has always gained great attention. However, developing hydrogels with eminent-biosecurity, rapidly hemostatic and bactericidal function remains a critical challenge. Hence, we designed an injectable hydrogel with hemostatic and bactericidal function based on Bionic Self-Assembling Peptide (BSAP) in this study. BSAP was formed with two functionalized peptides containing (RADA)4 motif and possessed the ability to self-assemble into nanofibers. As expected, BSAP could rapidly co-assemble into hydrogel network structure in situ driven by Ca2+. The hydrogel with a concentration of 5% showed a superior microporous structure and excellent shear thinning characteristics, as well as injectability. Moreover, in the foot trauma model and tail amputation model, the fabricated hydrogel exhibited a lower blood clotting index and dramatically reduced blood clotting time and bleeding volume. Remarkably, the hydrogel reduced inflammatory responses by blocking bacterial infection, promoting wound healing. Finally, the hydrogel is highly hemocompatible and has no cytotoxicity. Overall, this work provides a strategy for developing a high-biosecurity hydrogel with hemostatic and antibacterial properties, which will allow for the clinical application of BSAP.
