Authors: Hidayahningrum Syafitri , Hidayat Noor , Marjono Marjono
Published: June 2023

In this article, we present the structure of η-intuitionistic fuzzy ring. An η-intuitionistic fuzzy ring is a structure which is built with combinating the definition of fuzzy ring, intuitionistic fuzzy set, and η-intuitionistic fuzzy set. The η-intuitionistic fuzzy set is characterized by any value η∈[0,1], where the degree of membership μ_(A^η ) (k) is obtained based on the averaging operator of the degree of membership μ_A (k) and the value of η∈[0,1]. While the degree of non membership ν_(A^η ) (k) is obtained based on the averaging operator of the degree of non membership ν_A (k) and the value of 1-η∈[0,1]. In its development, new concepts were obtained, namely the η-intuitionistic fuzzy ideal and its properties related to the sum and product operation of η-intuitionistic fuzzy ideals. Furthermore, the η-intuitionistic fuzzy ideals concept can be developed into an η-intuitionistic fuzzy quotient ring, η-intuitionistic fuzzy homomorphism, and its properties on the next research.

Published: June 2023

In the period of the last few decades, more complex technology have been integrated into our daily lives. Therefore, teachers are advocating that students BYOD (bring your own device). This aims are investigated the activities of students during the lesson, which enables teachers to evaluate their students' progress in learning. In addition to this, students' learning experiences and raise their levels of satisfaction with their education with Nearpod and the dynamic interaction that occurs between them. Descriptive statistics were used for the analysis. Descriptive data for the questions and items were compiled in Excel, and included frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation. The goal of this research is to explore how female students feel about using Nearpod in conjunction with a video-conferencing learning system on a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) learning platform. This study was conducted at Universitas Muhammadiyah Purwokerto (n = 78 students) and Purwokerto Secondary School in Central Java (n = 83 students and 9 teachers), during the even semester of the 2020/2021 school year. The objectives of this study required the development and administration of a questionnaire to all of the women enrolled in the "Mathematics Education" course. Researchers concluded from their study that students are open to using their own devices in class and are willing to benefit from the affordances provided by the BYOD platform and the Nearpod to engage in active learning during lectures. Therefore, there has to be more work done by universities to figure out which of the growing elements of education should be prioritized in order to create the best possible conditions for instruction and learning.
Callable Bond's Value Analysis Using Binomial Interest Rate Tree Considering Early Redemption and Default Risks
Authors: Kusnadi Felivia , Tirtasaputra Devina Gabriella
Published: June 2023

Bonds are known as one of low-risk investments and worth to be considered as a part of an investor's portfolio, however there are still underlying risks that could affect its price. This paper focuses on the effect of early redemption risk and default risk to a bond’s value. Using binomial interest rate tree method and its adjusted for default risk version, this paper wants to analyse how these risks affect Indonesian bonds’ values through simulations, while showing how these bonds can be used to construct the binomial interest rate trees. In the default risk simulation, more assumptions are made because of data limitations, which causes the first period recovery fraction to soar higher than the other periods. The analysis shows that, compared to present value of standard bonds, early redemption risk tends to cause the bond's present value to drop, while on the contrary, default risk tends to cause the bond's present value to rise. The cause of higher present value of bonds with default risk is explained by the high first period recovery fraction.
Causative constructions in Bezhta
Authors: Khalilova Zaira
Published: June 2023

The causative constructions of Bezhta, a Nakh-Daghestanian language, display a range of crosslinguistically unusual non-causative effects. Standard causativization in Bezhta is compatible with intransitive, transitive, and affective verbs. However, the addition of causative morphology does not always form a construction with a new argument. When the resulting valency does not reflect the productive pattern of causative derivation, the verb is lexicalized. Lexicalization of this kind is not only common in affective verbs, but also in transitive verbs. Along with the non-causative use of causative suffixes, Bezhta presents the use of a more complex doubled causative suffix in the sense of a simple causative suffix: although this is common in typological terms, it is rare in the area under discussion. The present paper takes the notion of transitivity as central for explaining the formation of causative constructions in the language.
THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN CHILDREN’S STORY – STJEPAN LICE AND SONJA TOMIĆ
Authors: Vidović Schreiber Tea-Tereza , Odža Ivana
Published: June 2023

The aim of this paper 1 is to explore some of the ways in which Christian values are present in contemporary Croatian children’s stories. Contemporary Croatian children’s literature is extremely diverse. However, Christianity has been immanent in Croatian children’s literature from the very beginning and has engaged with contemporary children’s stories through various creative processes. One of the contemporary approaches to Christian themes in Croatian children’s literature will be presented, analyzing the works of the Croatian writers Sonja Tomić and Stjepan Lice. Their stories are inspired by biblical themes, motifs, and forms such as parables, the stories of rich symbolic relationships and strong messages in which Jesus Christ speaks in a vivid and understandable way about ordinary things, elevating them to the level of timeless meaning, thus pointing to correlations between the everyday world, spiritual reality, and the Kingdom of God. Sonja Tomić and Stjepan Lice approach these biblical themes through contemporary narrative concepts of children’s literature and bring the original, complex way of Christ’s teaching closer to the children’s world and the potential experience of religiosity as it applies to children.
IN PRAISE OF ANIMAL LABORANS, THE LABORING BODIES OF CHAUCER’S GENERAL PROLOGUE
Authors: Mahdipour Alireza , Pirnajmuddin Hossein
Published: June 2023

In the late medieval England, the long futile wars, famine and death tolls caused by the plagues highlighted the value of laboring bodies. Attitudes to labor changed, especially labor for food production. The attitude of the clergy, however, was paradoxical towards labor. According to the Christian doctrine and ethics, work was a virtue, but, practically speakin, in the feudal system of the medieval period, manual work was allotted to the peasants. To cope with this ideological flaw, the clergy triumphed in their (non-productive) clerical labor and services, meditative and ascetic life. Failure in achieving these ideals is depicted and satirized in the General Prologue of the Canterbury Tales, by the pilgrim-Chaucer’s highlighting the significance of both food and foodmakers.

FROM TRADITIONAL LANGUAGE LEARNING TO LANGUAGE LEARNING ON MOBILE APPS
Authors: Čebron Neva , Sorgo Lara
Published: June 2023

The pervasive presence of ICT (information and communication technology) in everyday
life and the appeal these technologies have for our students, forces teachers of foreign
languages to consider how language teaching might be adapted to include these new tools in teaching practice. During the various stages of the Covid pandemic, the surge in
the development of ICT supported language-learning devices, especially language learning mobile apps, and a wealth of research focusing on the exploration of the new
means of eLearning, indicate new options for the delivery and acquisition of foreign
languages as a life-long learning practice, which the LanGuide project seeks to exploit
and advance.
The paper reports on a survey carried out among respondents (students, academic and
administrative staff) at 6 institutions of higher education in Slovenia, Romania, Croatia,
Spain and Sweden. The purpose of the research was to examine the views, practices and attitudes of the respondents with regard to using ICT for foreign language acquisition, in order to help the international partnership to establish clear goals and objectives for developing learning materials in the languages of the partnership of the LanGuide project (KA2-HE/19), co-funded by the European Commission. Mobile language learning has altered the approach to language acquisition and our respondents proved well aware of the options available to them. The mobility, portability, and ubiquity of mobile apps seem to motivate them to make plans for more language learning. This manner of language acquisition, one that provides a sense of freedom and self-management, seems to suit and motivate self-learners. However, in the future, particular attention should be devoted to the further investigation of learning strategies and learning styles compatible with the use of mobile technology. Such knowledge could have a crucial impact on both language instructors and learners of foreign languages, as well as help materials writers and software developers. We can conclude that mobile language learning has changed the approach to language acquisition, while a number of issues still need to be addressed and analysed in order to provide a meaningful, productive user experience on language learning apps.
NIETZSCHE’S AMOR FATI IN DAVID FOSTER WALLACE’S INFINITE JEST
Authors: Langroudi Narjess Jafari
Published: June 2023

This paper aims to show the blasé characters of Wallace’s Infinite Jest exposed to the postmodern zeitgeist who fear and hate fate for its dominance, as is depicted in his works. The indifference, apathy, skepticism and equivocation which circumscribed Wallace’s characters in Infinite Jest show their escapist analysis of the quirks of fate. This study tries to find out whether Wallace’s characters affirmatively embrace the power of fate or negatively deny it. After a close reading of Wallace’s Infinite Jest, the researcher highlights that Nietzsche’s concept of amor fati is absent for Wallace’s characters because, fallaciously, they were either trying to ignore it or demystify it. Wallace characters’ means of coping with fate metamorphoses them into apathetic beings that are finally in a constant quarrel with themselves. Both their escape from fate and their craving for its demystification culminate in their drowning in life and its pleasures, and then it becomes clear they can no longer enjoy anything and they become afflicted with anhedonia. Wallace’s characters cannot know why their lives are worth living, so they fall into deadly living. It argues that fate entangles human freedom and human extrication from their carnal desires becomes a big delusion in the infinite jest of their lives. The immanent fight with fate will make life’s jest very serious. And when life is taken too seriously, its jest will intensively make a mockery of humans.
O conceito de massas no pensamento de Hannah Arendt
Authors: Kanashiro Meneghetti Francis , De Oliveira Jelson Roberto
Published: June 2023

Este texto reflete sobre o constructo teórico de massas e a concepção de homem massa como fundantes e estruturais na compreensão dos totalitarismos nazista e stalinista, presentes na obra Origens do Totalitarismo (ARENDT, 1989) de Hannah Arendt. Conclui-se que o totalitarismo é uma organização de massa, que possui características específicas e que as massas são manipuláveis a partir de determinados aspectos específicos dos movimentos totalitários. Analisa-se o que é homem de massa e como tal concepção é fundamental para compreender outros conceitos importantes da pensadora política. Assim, a partir das reflexões aqui desenvolvidas, torna-se possível incrementar novas perspectivas nas análises de conceitos como totalitarismo, banalidade do mal, política, poder, violência, amplamente estudados e debatidos não só na filosofia, como nas ciências sociais, ciências políticas, psicologia, estudos organizacionais e administração. As reflexões aqui propostas permitem também fazer paralelos com a realidade atual, levando em consideração, obviamente, o cuidado de evitar anacronismos analíticos.
Direitos indígenas no Brasil: uma reconstituição filosófica
Authors: Fontes Gustavo
Published: June 2023

Este artigo propõe um levantamento do contato entre o pensamento europeu e os povos ameríndios, com ênfase na genealogia dos conceitos filosóficos que vieram a embasar as posições teológicas e as normas jurídicas responsáveis por regular, ao menos em teoria, as práticas históricas para a dinâmica de invasão e conquista dessas terras baixas da América do Sul. Pois, entendemos que nesta trilha encontraremos os fundamentos da dialética entre os direitos indígenas e as regulamentações do Estado nacional, de onde surgem as tensões relativas às reivindicações dos povos ameríndios pelo direito à proteção e uso exclusivo de seus territórios originários. Iniciamos, então, esse percurso, com o momento inaugural da discussão moderna sobre a pauta dos direitos humanos, a partir do debate relativo ao reconhecimento ou não da humanidade dos povos indígenas no século XVI – presente nas formulações do direito dos povos por Frei Francisco de Vitória; passando pelo importante episódio conhecido como Controvérsia de Valladolid, entre Sepúlveda e Las Casas; percorrendo posteriormente o período colonial, império, primeira e segunda repúblicas, sempre com especial atenção para os conceitos filosóficos que sustentaram as práticas de exploração, usurpação, proteção e controle ao longo deste percurso; até chegar nos ideais de autonomia e autodeterminação presentes na Constituição de 1988. Finalizando esta exposição com a discussão sobre os desafios atuais para sua manutenção e aperfeiçoamento.
Os usos políticos da dialética hegeliana
Authors: Echevenguá Quadro Diego
Published: June 2023

O presente artigo busca apresentar os distintos usos políticos da dialética hegeliana que podemos encontrar dentro da tradição crítica de esquerda, a chamada “esquerda hegeliana”. Hegel teve um profundo impacto no pensamento político desde que sua obra começou a circular dentro das esferas intelectuais da velha Europa. Marx foi o principal herdeiro da dialética hegeliana no século XIX. Mas contemporaneamente, autores como Slavoj Zizek e o brasileiro Vladimir Safatle dão continuidade à tradição hegeliana de esquerda. Sendo assim, o impacto da dialética hegeliana dentro do debate político contemporâneo não cessou de produzir reverberações. Contudo, existe a questão de se o uso que a tradição crítica de esquerda fez da dialética hegeliana é um uso que pode ser considerado legítimo se partirmos do pensamento do próprio Hegel. Em nosso trabalho, investigaremos se o uso do pensamento de Hegel por parte da tradição crítica de esquerda é um uso legítimo quando comparado com o próprio empreendimento filosófico hegeliano.
Cidade e modernidade em Benjamin e Virilio
Authors: Mancilla Mauricio
Published: June 2023

Este ensaio aborda, a partir das obras de Walter Benjamin (1892-1840) e Paul Virilio (1932-2018), o sistema complexo que configura a cidade e como este molda a vida cotidiana. A cidade é o centro de gravidade na reflexão de ambos os autores, que examinam as consequências da rápida industrialização e urbanização, do desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias e da emergência de uma cultura de massas. A primeira parte examina, a partir de Benjamin, a transformação da cidade moderna em uma mercadoria que esconde sua trama capitalista. A segunda parte apresenta a tese provocativa de Virilio sobre como a crescente aceleração e expansão dos meios tecnológicos de comunicação e informação transformou a experiência da vida cotidiana, que leva ao desaparecimento da ideia clássica da cidade.
BIOKINETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF FERROPLASMA ACIDIPHILUM
Authors: Daoud Jamal , Karamanev Dimitre
Published: June 2023

Abstract. Recently a mixed culture dominated by the iron-oxidizing microorganisms Leptospirillum and Ferroplasma has been used in a large-scale microbial fuel cell for electrical power generation. There are many factors that affect the kinetics of iron oxidation by the mixotroph Ferroplasma acidiphilum. This study investigated the effects of pH, temperature, and substrate and yeast extract concentrations in order to arrive at kinetically favorable operating conditions with minimal jarosite precipitation. Furthermore, F. acidiphilum was cultured with Leptospirillum sp. in order to determine its viability as a species capable of limiting the organic by-products of chemolithotrophic microbial growth. Bacterial characterization in the culture was accomplished using fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). It was found that the ferrous iron oxidation was most favorable at yeast extract concentration of 0.02% (w/v), pH of 1.6, temperature of 35 oC and an initial ferrous iron concentration of 1 g/L yielding a maximum specific growth rate of 0.0351-0.042 h-1. Moreover, F. acidiphilum displayed a symbiotic relationship with its chemolithotrophic counterpart, Leptospirillum sp. in that they were able to utilize the metabolic organic products of the chemolithotroph and limit the organic concentration to ~20 ppm total organic carbon (TOC), well below the threshold concentration of 250 ppm for chemolithotroph activity.

Published: June 2023

The natural radioactivity levels of mineral water from certain most frequently used sources in Southwest Bulgaria were determined. The mineral water was investigated with regard to gross alpha and beta activity to determine whether the activity concentrations are below levels at which no further action is required. The measurements were made by Liquid Scintillation Spectrometer. The gross alpha and beta activity varied from ≤ 0.003 Bq/L to 0.671 Bq/L and from 0.054 and to 0.375 Bq/L, respectively. The values obtained in this study were compared with data reported by other authors in different countries and with reference values accepted for drinking water.
The annual effective doses were calculated for all investigated waters for adult inhabitants assuming yearly consumption of 730 litres. The results show that the annual effective dose of ingestion of these water samples excluding one, are below the individual dose criterion of 100 µSv/y according to the World Health Organization recommendations.

Published: June 2023

Background:

The hippocampus is highly vulnerable to damage in the brain ischemia-reperfusion injury model. Leuprolide acetate has been shown to promote neurological recovery after injury in various regions of the central nervous system.

Objective:

The objective of this study was to assess the histology of the hippocampus and the expression of neuronal recovery markers, specifically the 200 kDa neurofilaments and the myelin basic protein, in rats with brain ischemia-reperfusion injury treated with leuprolide acetate.

Methods:

The rats were divided into three groups: Sham, ischemia-reperfusion with saline solution, and ischemia-reperfusion treated with leuprolide acetate. Coronal brain slices were obtained and stained with hematoxylin-eosin. The histological analysis involved quantifying the number of neurons in the hippocampal regions CA1, CA3 and DG. The myelin basic protein and neurofilaments were quantified using western blot.

Results:

The number of neurons in CA1 and DG was significantly higher in the leuprolide acetate group compared to the untreated group. Additionally, the expression of neurofilament and myelin basic protein markers was significantly increased in rats treated with leuprolide acetate compared to the untreated rats.

Conclusions:

Leuprolide acetate promotes the recovery of hippocampal neurons in an acute brain ischemia-reperfusion injury model. These findings suggest that leuprolide acetate could be a potential therapeutic intervention for reversing damage in hippocampal ischemic lesions.

The article notes that today in the practical and scientific environment the opinion prevails that security in penitentiary institutions consists of three components: dynamic, physical and procedural. The authors come to the conclusion that, despite the three- component nature of this type of activity, special attention is paid to dynamic security, however, it is necessary to pay attention to other components, namely the seizure of prohibited items from convicts, as a guarantee of normal activities to prevent penitentiary relapse, as well as to reduce level of post-penitentiary crime.

The types of permitted and prohibited items, products and substances for use by convicts in penitentiary institutions are considered. The author's classification of objects, products and substances, the storage and use of which is prohibited by convicts in penitentiary institutions, is presented.

Goat's milk is positioned as biologically complete, suitable for the creation of functional products and baby food products. This is explained by the qualitative and quantitative composition of its main nutrients: proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, biologically active substances, micro- and macro-elements. The biological value of food raw materials is assessed by its ability to satisfy protein needs. Strict thermal treatment regimens are used for goat milk. This is caused by the quantitative ratio of casein and albumin fractions in goat milk and its specific organoleptic properties. Pasteurization of milk causes partial destruction of proteins, enzymes, hormones and evaporation of gaseous. This contributes to the improvement of sensory properties of dairy goat raw materials. The effect of high temperatures on goat milk proteins and its biological value has been little studied. The effect of pasteurization regimes on proteins was studied and indicators of the biological value of the samples were determined: without heat treatment; heat treatment 63 ± 2 °С, duration 30 minutes; heat treatment 87 ± 2 °С duration 5-6 minutes. The amino acid composition of the test samples was determined by acid hydrolysis on an LC2000 amino acid analyzer (Biotronik, Germany). Indicators of the biological value of proteins of pasteurized goat milk were calculated – coefficient of difference of amino acid composition, biological value, coefficient of utilitarian amino acid composition, coefficient of rationality of amino acid composition, coefficient of comparative redundancy. The general analysis of the obtained data revealed a positive effect of heat treatment on the indicators of the biological value of goat milk. The amino acid score of the limiting amino acid increased by 14.82–14.92 %; biological value – 11.4–13.02 %; the PDCAAS indicator – by 14.18–14.29 %; changes in the values of formalized indicators had the same tendency. The biological value of proteins for the application of thermal regimes is at the same level. It has been proven that pasteurization has a positive effect on the biological value of goat milk proteins. This makes the product safe and useful for all segments of the population and can be recommended for feeding children from 0 to 6 months. Prospects for further research are the development of milk drinks of a combined composition of raw materials with an improved recipe in order to enrich the product with limiting amino acids.

Today, fusariotoxins play an increasingly important role in the pathology of farm animals, among which deoxynivalenol plays an important role. Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most common fusariotoxins. It affects the health of animals that consume contaminated feed, and can lead to various metabolic disorders, disrupting the body's homeostasis. One of the main effects of deoxynivalenol is that it stimulates the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines, which in turn causes the acute phase of inflammation in animals. In addition, deoxynivalenol leads to a decrease in appetite and can cause hypophagia in animals, which in turn leads to a decrease in daily gains. The direction of the conducted research is aimed at identifying the optimal substrate for the synthesis of deoxynivalenol and its maximum accumulation by the fungus F. graminearum, and also established the optimal parameters for the synthesis of mycotoxin (cultivation temperature, substrate humidity, cultivation period). Grains of the following crops were used as substrates: wheat, rice, corn, barley, oats, rye, millet, millet, peas, soybeans, sunflower, mustard, rapeseed, buckwheat, and flax. Deoxynivalenol in samples was determined by thin-layer chromatography. The production of deoxynivalenol was studied in the temperature ranges of 4, 17, 24, and 28 °C; humidity of the substrate in the range from 14–90 % and the duration of cultivation from 1 to 4 weeks. The mycotoxin-producing activity of the fungus F. graminearum isolate 195/1 was largely determined by the studied parameters. The maximum amount of deoxynivalenol was produced at a temperature of 24 ºС, a substrate humidity of 50%, and a duration of cultivation of 24 days. Of the tested substrates, rice was the best for deoxynivalenol production. The obtained results serve as a basis for possible prediction of feed contamination with deoxynivalenol and, in general, will allow to optimize measures to combat mycotoxicosis and thus minimize the possible risks of mycotoxin poisoning of people and animals.
Ovicidal effect of the modern disinfectant on exogenous stages of development of nematodes Trichuris skrjabini

Epizootiological monitoring studies on parasitoses of domestic ruminants indicate that one of the most common causes of nematodes of the digestive tract in large and small cattle are helminths of the genus Trichuris. Those helminths develop directly – without intermediate hosts, and their embryonic stages became invasive in the environment under favorable conditions. The eggs of those parasites are incredibly resistant and can be infective for a long time contaminating environmental objects. So, to improve the parasitological situation in livestock farms, we have to look for the most effective methods of disinfestation of environmental objects. This study aimed to establish the ovicidal effect of the modern disinfectant “Arquadez-plus” on eggs of nematodes Trichuris skrjabini parasitizing sheep. This product's high level of ovicidal efficiency was seen in experimental cultures of nematodes' eggs at 1.5 % concentration and 60 min exposure (94.2 %) and 2.0 % concentration and 10–60 min exposure (98.3–100.0 %). The ovicidal effect of “Arquadez-plus” on eggs of T. skrjabini was seen as a cessation of development; shrinking embryo plugs destruction, the release of underdeveloped larvae from eggs, and their death. During the use of this disinfectant, the changes in morphometric data of Trichuris eggs in test cultures were noticeable. At the most effective disinfectant concentrations and exposures, the dimensions of eggs were changed significantly: length smaller by 3.8–3.9 % (71.9–72.0 μm) and width more significant by 5.0–5.2 % (34.9–35.0 μm) as compared to those parameters in control (74.8 and 33.2 μm). This is evidence of the violations in nematodes' egg development. The data obtained allow us to recommend the disinfectant of domestic production, “Arquadez-plus”, for effectively controlling and preventing trichurosis in sheep on livestock farms.

Snails are a delicacy that people have been eating for centuries. Products made from this meat contain few calories per 100 grams and fill the human body with useful elements. They can be prepared by cooking, namely escargot with various fillings (Burgundy snails, Catalan snails, Asian snails, snails with porcini mushrooms), and also, now a new type of product containing m gastropod mollusks – puffs with snails. If determining the quality and nutritional value of meat, it is necessary to determine indicators, if there is doubt about its suitability, which characterize the chemical composition, freshness, as well as the determination of microbiological contamination. The purpose of this work was to determine the features and practical aspects of examination of gastropod molluscs – snails. The studies highlighted in the scientific publications of Ukrainian scientists are significant, but they relate to the determination of the degree of freshness of snail meat by various methods and the organization of snail farming in various ways. Snails are a delicacy, dietary product of high commercial value and belong to the few types of food products. They are subject to mandatory veterinary and sanitary examination. A special feature of examination of snails is microbiological and bacteriological types of control to establish their general safety. In the course of research, first of all, the organoleptic indicators of molluscs, which reflect their freshness, are determined. Next, they conduct research on the presence of pathogenic microflora, determine the presence of radionuclides, conduct bacteriological research. In addition to the mollusk itself, the water with which they are irrigated, as well as the soil – the permanent habitat of snails – are also examined for the presence of helminth eggs. It was established that it is necessary to carry out laboratory control of each batch of snail meat for the content of microorganisms, such as MAFAnM, BGKP (coliforms), coagulase-positive staphylococcus (S. aureus), bacteria of the genus Proteus, pathogenic microorganisms, including salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, radionuclides – Cs-137 and Sr-90 and helminths (nematodes).
