Authors: Narendiran A.
Published: October 2021

Abstract: A new technique in remediating cracks and fissures in concrete by utilizing microbiologically induced Calcite (CaCo3) precipitation is discussed. Microbiologically induced calcite precipitation (MICP) is a technique that comes under a broader category of science called Bio Mineralization. It is a process by which living organisms form inorganic solids. Bacillus subtilis, a common soil bacterium can induce the precipitation of calcite. The objective of the present investigation is to study the potential application of bacterial species i.e. Bacillus subtilis to improve the strength of cement concrete. Here we have made an attempt to incorporate dormant but viable bacteria in the concrete matrix which will contribute to the strength of the concrete. In this project, bacterial concrete is prepared under grade of concrete M30.The design mix proportioning also carried under IS code provision. Testing of specimens are carried at 7 days, 14 days and 28 days of curing by Compression Testing Machine and Universal Testing Machine for corresponding specimens.
Espacio y territorio como categorías para la comprensión del tiempo presente: Emergencia teórica y renovación conceptual a propósito del octubre chileno – 2019
Authors: Marchant Santiago Carla , Monje-Hernández Yerko
Published: October 2021

The mobilization cycle that began in October 2019 represented a crucial moment in the Chilean democratic trajectory. What began as a protest for the rise of 30 Chilean pesos in the Santiago Metro, quickly took on national demand as the horizon exceeded that specific bid, and became a systemic and structural criticism of the democratic institutions and the constitutional, economic, social and cultural structure inherited from the dictatorship. This social awakening in October not only implied transformations associated to material life. Also the conceptual and theoretical tools that were used to understand social phenomena from spaces of intellectual exercise, such as universities were modified. One of these categories is precisely space and territory, which from the nineties with supported and growing socio-environmental movements, was installed in the repertoire of popular demands. A dimension that was also strongly glimpsed in the October protests: the defence of territories as spaces for life. Based on this, a two-dimensional journey is proposed, first a theoretical conceptual debate and on the other hand a historical approach dealing with the emergence of the concept in recent Chilean history, with the interest of understanding a socio-territorial and historical dimension of what happened in October 2019.
Los límites del pensar: Hegel en diálogo con Kant
Authors: Duplancic Víctor Eugenio
Published: October 2021

From the perspective of Cartesian doubt (on the validity of sensory experience in the acquisition of scientific philosophical knowledge), this article explores the concept of the limitations of reasoning through the use of the Kantian words 'boundary' (Grenze) and 'barrier' (Schranke) in his Critique of Pure Reason. Hegel's critical dialogue with Kant is presented focusing on the limitation that the latter imposed on reason for the acquisition of the true knowledge of philosophical/metaphysical objects. For this purpose, the Hegelian position is presented from its discussion on the second chapter (point B. Finitude) of the first section of the The Doctrine of Being (1832) and references are made to conceptual elements of the Phenomenology of Spirit.

Authors: Hung Lun Wu , Lee Cheng Ya , Cheng Bor-Chih
Published: October 2021

Cardiac myxoma is the most common benign cardiac tumor. Its tremendous
size and fragile character severely bother the surgeons. Several minimal
invasive approaches had been applied for radical tumor excision. The
wound was forcibly enlarged for en-bloc specimen removal and prevention
of debris sputtering. We reported a case of huge tricuspid valve (TV)
myxoma managed by robot-assisted endoscopic tumor resection and TV
repair. The tumor was downsized with a morcellator and removed through a
keyhole wound (1.1 cm in diameter). The patient recovered uneventfully
and was discharged after four days.

Objetivos: (i) caracterizar o nível de autonomia atual dos TFs em Portugal em investigação científica; (ii) caracterizar o nível de autonomia desejado dos TFs em Portugal em investigação científica; (iii) caracterizar as necessidades de formação assim como identificar as barreiras e facilitadores de práticas de investigação dos TFs em Portugal. Métodos: 86 TFs preencheram um questionário validado por um painel de peritos. A recolha de dados incidiu sobre: (i) nível de autonomia atual e desejado para a prática de investigação; (ii) barreiras e facilitadores inerentes à prática da investigação. Resultados: Os níveis de autonomia foram significativamente inferiores aos níveis desejados (p<0,001). A autonomia atual para a tarefa de criação de uma ideia de investigação foi significativamente inferior quando comparada com as tarefas de definição de metodologia (p<0,05), análise de dados (p<0,001), processamento de dados (p<0,001) e síntese de resultados (p<0,001). Não houve diferenças de autonomia entre a tarefa de comunicação em conferências e a tarefa de criação de uma ideia de investigação (p<0,05). A maioria reportou a necessidade de formação adicional para conseguir integrar a investigação na sua prática clínica. A principal barreira para a realização de investigação foi a ausência de tempo (64,5%). O principal facilitador foi o tempo disponível (27,7%). Conclusão: Os TFs possuem o desejo de maior autonomia no processo de investigação. A identificação de barreiras e facilitadores encontrados poderão permitir uma resposta mais adequada às capacidades e necessidades dos TFs.

Authors: Galvão Marcela Bastos , Fichino Silvia Nápole , Lewis Doris Ruthy
Published: October 2021

Introdução: É imprescindível o diagnóstico audiológico até o terceiro mês de vida para que se possa iniciar uma intervenção precoce, permitindo que a criança desenvolva adequadamente a fala e a linguagem. Porém este processo enfrenta diversas barreiras que dificultam sua conclusão. Objetivo: Analisar o processo do diagnóstico audiológico em bebês que falharam na triagem auditiva neonatal, descrevendo a idade na realização da triagem e do diagnóstico, os motivos das evasões e faltas durante o processo, motivos para demora na finalização do diagnóstico, e os resultados audiológicos daqueles que finalizaram este processo. Métodos: Estudo quantitativo, descritivo, observacional, realizado em um Centro de Referência em Saúde Auditiva. Foram analisados os prontuários de 68 crianças que falharam na TAN, nas maternidades da Prefeitura Municipal de São Paulo, e encaminhadas para o Centro de Referência, no período de janeiro a junho de 2019. Os dados foram analisados com base nos critérios de qualidade estabelecidos por comitês nacionais e internacionais. Resultados: O serviço teve adesão abaixo do esperado no diagnóstico audiológico (76,5%) e o contato com os que evadiram, via telefone, não foi eficiente (75%). O indicador de risco com maior ocorrência foi a permanência na UTI por mais de cinco dias (25%). Das crianças que permaneceram no processo, metade concluiu o diagnóstico, o restante não tinha encerrado (42,2%) ou evadiu do mesmo (7,7%). A maioria das crianças que finalizaram o diagnóstico, apresentavam alguma perda auditiva (65,4%). Conclusão: O critério de qualidade não foi alcançado no comparecimento ao diagnóstico, sendo abaixo dos 90% recomendáveis. Novas estratégias necessitam ser tomadas, diminuindo a evasão no diagnóstico audiológico, dentre elas, outras formas de contato com as famílias e a integração entre atenção básica e os serviços de referência em Saúde Auditiva.

Published: October 2021

La representación de la mujer en las narrativas de ficción ha evolucionado desde la primera ola del Feminismo. Dado que las ficciones no han roto todavía con los estereotipos de género, el presente trabajo plantea un análisis de los tres personajes femeninos de la serie de Netflix Bridgerton (Shondaland, 2020), a través de una metodología cualitativa que aplica la tabla de análisis de personajes femeninos propuesta por Mar Chicharro (2018, p. 95). Esta herramienta se basa en variables clave en la construcción de personajes desde el punto de vista narrativo, pero además incluye cuestiones descriptivas que ayudan a abordar su evolución, como es el arco de transformación. El objetivo es constatar el cambio del criterio representacional de la mujer en la ficción audiovisual, que pasa de objeto de deseo masculino a sujeto activo orientado a satisfacer la demanda del público femenino al que va dirigida. Finalmente se presentan los resultados, entre los que destacan la evolución del personaje principal, desde la figura de princesa de cuento de hadas a heroína de la acción, así como la multirepresentación de la figura femenina a través de tres generaciones, estrategia empleada con el objetivo de cubrir el conjunto de la audiencia femenina.
An Approach to the Modeling and Simulation of Intra-Hospital Diseases
Authors: Encinas Diego Omar , Maccallini Lucas , Romero Fernando
Published: October 2021

This publication presents an approach to a simulator to recreate a large number of scenarios and to make agile decisions in the planning of a real emergency room system. A modeling and simulation focused on the point prevalence of intrahospital infections in an emergency room and how it is affected by different factors related to hospital management. To carry out the simulator modeling, the Agent-based Modeling and Simulation (ABMS) paradigm was used. Thus, different intervening agents in the emergency room environment — patients and doctors, among others— were classified. The user belonging to the health system has different data to configure the simulation, such as the number of patients, the number of available beds, etc.

Based on the tests carried out and the measurements obtained, it is concluded that the disease propagation model relative to the time and contact area of the patients has greater precision than the purely statistical model of the intensive care unit.
Reasons to use cilostazol
Authors: Wojtak Andrzej
Published: October 2021

Occlusive atherosclerosis of the lower limbs in the initial stage is characterized by symptoms of intermittent claudication with a variable distance depending on the severity of its changes. As a progressive disease, it may lead to the obstruction of the arteries of the lower extremities and the formation of a collateral circulation network in the form of natural by-passes of obstructed sections of the arteries. Disease development is accelerated by: older age, male sex, smoking, diabetes, dyslipidemic disorders and arterial hypertension. One of the effective forms of treatment of chronic lower limb ischemia in the course of atherosclerosis is pharmacotherapy with cilostazol.

Authors: Juszczak Kajetan , Drewa Tomasz
Published: October 2021

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are common in aging men. There is a close relationship between LUTS complaints and erectile dysfunction. Alpha-blockers are usually considered the I-line treatment of BPH-related LUTS. Phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors are the gold standard in the treatment of erectile dysfunction, and can also be used in patients with BPH-related LUTS with or without coexisting erectile dysfunction. This article presents the current state of knowledge regarding the use of an α-blocker (tamsulosin) and a phosphodiesterase- 5 inhibitor (tadalafil) in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Authors: Eraslan Ersen , Bircan Burak , Tanyeli Ayhan , Can Güler Mustafa , Bayır Yasin , Altun Serdar
Published: October 2021

Renal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is frequently observed in several clinical cases. In this study, we want to investigate that SCM-198 attenuates renal injury in the renal I/R model and find out the possible mechanisms. Wistar albino 40 male rats were classified into four groups (n=10): control, DMSO, I/R, and SCM-198 30 mg/kg. In the group 4, SCM-198 was administered intraperitoneally once at the doses of 30 mg/kg following the reperfusion. Glomerular associated proteins (PCX), tubular damage factors (NGAL, KIM-1), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine, inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α), Bax/Bcl-2, TLR4, LC3B, and Beclin-1 were evaluated. SCM-198 played an essential role in mitigating kidney damage. SCM-198 alleviated tubular damage and decreased IL-1β, IL-18, and TNF-α levels. SCM-198 reduced the apoptosis marker Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, immune system protein TLR4, and autophagy proteins LC3B and Beclin-1. In brief, our results support the notion that SCM-198 has protective effects on I/R-induced renal injury. SCM-198 therapy may be a new alternative for the prevention and treatment of renal I/R injury.
Satisfacción marital en pacientes oncológicos: su relación con los eventos hirientes y la calidez brindada por su pareja
Authors: Granillo-Velasco Luisa Fernanda , Sánchez-Aragón Rozzana
Published: October 2021

El cáncer afecta considerablemente la calidad de vida y la salud de quienes lo padecen, así como las de sus parejas. Al ser la pareja un vínculo significativo para las personas, la experiencia de sufrir eventos hirientes (EH) o de calidez durante la interacción cotidiana puede causar satisfacción e insatisfacción entre sus miembros. Así, tanto las percepciones y experiencias del propio paciente oncológico (PO) como de su pareja se vuelven fundamentales al evaluar su relación, por lo que los objetivos del presente estudio fueron el examinar la manera en la que la experiencia de eventos hirientes y la calidez (reportada por el miembro de la pareja sano) afecta la satisfacción con su relación del PO, y explorar las diferencias y similitudes en la experiencia de EH de los PO, la mencionada calidez y la satisfacción con la relación de los PO a partir del tiempo de la misma y de cohabitar con la pareja, el estado civil y el número de hijos. Entre los principales resultados se halló que la presencia de EH se relacionó negativamente con la satisfacción marital, mientras que la calidez lo hizo de manera positiva, y algunas diferencias que evidencian que hay un mayor toque afectivo en las parejas con un menor tiempo de relación. Estos resultados se discuten a la luz de la teoría, mostrando evidencia sobre dichas variables en el contexto relacional.

Published: October 2021

Novel Corona Virus (nCoV) infects human’s respiratory system. It spreads easily when an infected person makes a close contact with other people. To prevent its massive spread, it is necessary to ensure anyone coming to a certain place is not being infected. The symptoms include high body temperature (≥37.5°C) and low oxygen saturation level (≤95%). This day, most places only check the human body temperature. Thus, the authors are interested to make an attempt to design a system that is able to measure both human body temperature and oxygen saturation level. This work also applies the 7-DoF Upper-Body of Humanoid Robot to prevent virus spread from and to the employee. The system will detect the coming of visitors by using face detection. It requires 7.24 seconds to detect the visitor without a mask, and 1.26 second when the visitor wears a mask. The body temperature measurement was done using GY-906 temperature sensor with an error of 0.51%. For the oxygen saturation level measurement, MAX30100 pulse oximeter module was applied and showed an error of 0.78%. In addition, the upper-body of humanoid robot will perform some gestures to instruct the visitors in every process of the system. The implemented 7-DoF upper-body of humanoid robot has 93.33% gesture comprehension rate. In conclusion, the overall system has been tested and showed success rate up to 75%.
Design and Implementation of Real-Time Flood Early Warning System (FEWS) Based on IoT Blynk Application
Authors: Wisudawan Hasbi Nur Prasetyo
Published: October 2021

Disaster occurrence in Indonesia needs attention and role from all parties including the community to reduce the risks.  Disaster mitigation is one of the ways to reduce the disaster risk through awareness, capacity building, and the development of physical facilities, for example by applying disaster mitigation technology (early warning system, EWS). EWS is one of the effective methods to minimize losses due to disasters by providing warning based on certain parameters for disasters which usually occur such as floods. This research promotes a real-time IoT-based EWS flood warning system (Flood Early Warning System, FEWS) using Arduino and Blynk as well as Global System for Mobile Communication network (GSM) as the communication medium. The steps for implementing FEWS system in real locations are also discussed in this paper. Parameters such as water level, temperature, and humidity as well as rain conditions that are read by the EWS sensor can be accessed in real-time by using android based Blynk application that has been created. The result of the measurement of average temperature, humidity, and water level were 28.6 oC, 63.7 %, and 54.5 cm. Based on this analysis, the parameters indicated that the water level is in normal condition and there are no signs indicating that there will be flooding in the 30 days observation.  Based on the data collected by the sensor, FEWS can report four conditions, namely Normal, Waspada Banjir (Advisory), Siaga Banjir (Watch), and Awas Banjir (Warning) that will be sent immediately to the Blynk FEWS application user that has been created.

Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) causes muscle weakness and atrophy generally in distal extremities, with or without sensory changes. These impairments contribute to impaired balance and gait and increase risk for falls and secondary injuries. Dynamic Carbon Ground Reaction Ankle Foot Orthoses (DCGR-AFOs) are one type of lower extremity orthosis that can be prescribed to help improve gait and balance in this patient population. To our knowledge, no studies have evaluated the immediate impact of DCGR-AFOs on gait and balance in this population. In this pilot study, 9 individuals with CMT and gait impairment were seen in clinical setting by a physical therapist and orthotist. Participants were asked to complete the modified Clinical Test of Sensory Interaction and Balance (mCTSIB) and tasks on the 4-Item Dynamic Gait Index (DGI) with and without bilateral DCGR-AFOs to assess static and dynamic balance. The average DGI scores were 6/12 without the DCGR-AFOs and 10/12 with the DCGR-AFOs. Improvements on the mCTSIB varied. The findings in this study suggest an immediate improvement in dynamic balance during ambulation with the use of DCGR-AFOs, as assessed by the 4-Item DGI. Data on static balance did not reach significance suggesting the need for future studies to further assess the effects of DCGR-AFOs on static standing balance, as well as the impact of training with physical therapists. This pilot study demonstrates that it is possible to demonstrate potential benefits of DCGR-AFOs with a gross fitting in a clinical setting, prior to referral to an orthotist for custom fitting.

Authors: Islam Shahidul , Roman Rafion Islam
Published: October 2021

The Readymade Garments (RMG) industries are in Bangladesh is the largest contributor to the national export earnings and second largest in GDP of the country. Starting from the late Seventies as minor as well as non-traditional sector with a negligible of exporting, the RMG sector has dramatically grown up a geometric progression over the few decades. Although the country has a glorious history of textile, cloths and clothing’s from the ancient period of time. At present, about 75% of the total exports of the country having from this sector and one of the principle key points of employment. Over the preceding decade, fire and fire hazard is the continual problem in the country’s readymade garments industries. Only in 2012 about 169 people died and huge people are injured because of fire hazards in RMGs. Considering this as a crucial problem, the study was carried out a geo-spatial analysis on Chittagong Export Processing Zone (CEPZ) and Baizid Industrial hub of Chittagong city, Bangladesh. The study was mainly done by primary field survey while secondary sources were also used in comparing and basement of analysis. There are two types of parameters (Hard and Soft Parameters) generally used to assess the fire hazard of readymade garments. The research has been done by adopting the soft parameter, as exit door locked, emergency exit in the factory, fire extinguisher etc. The Fire Risk Index has been developed on the basis of 19 soft parameters. In Chittagong EPZ area 25 garments factories have been surveyed instantly to observe the current status of fire risk for the lack of 19 parameters. Results show that in CEPZ area for 19 parameters the mean safety is 90.45% or 9.55% deviation from the standard. On the contrary, the average condition of 19 parameters is 80.29% fluctuation from the benchmark in the Baizid Industrial area though it is considered as good condition but nearest to the average. Electric short circuit is the prime cause of fire in CEPZ area and also in Baizid industrial hub. At the eleventh hour, it is found from the study that about 80% garments in Baizid Industrial area under in good condition which is (10-20) % deviation from ideal case. On the other hand in CEPZ area about 80% garments are fallen excellent condition, it is only 8% seen in Baizid area. The study also reveals that there is no garments in both area which is in poor or average condition or vulnerable to fire hazards but in Baizid it is about 20% garments are fallen average condition or nearly vulnerable. Before conducting the study, it is seemed that it will be found the garments will be more vulnerable to fire hazards but at the end of the day it is proved as erroneous, for the recurrence of fire hazards in the last few years they have raised the magnitude of fire safety in almost every cases and now the garments are more secured in case of fire hazards.

The study describes the potential of producing bioethanol from corn (Zea mays) cobs, collard greens (Brassica oleracea) wasteand banana (Musa acuminate) peels using different methods of incubation. Wastes were pre-treated by grinding into smallerparticles and enzymatic hydrolysis was carried out using commercial cellulase from Aspergillus niger. Anaerobic fermentationwas done using cultured Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast suspension. Different incubation conditions (incubator, dark roomand under soil) at different temperatures 30oC, 21oC and 19oC respectively were optimised for bioethanol production atdifferent incubation times of 48, 96 and 144 hours. Maximum bioethanol percentages of corn cobs, banana peels and collardgreens were (0.48%), (0.39%) and (0.15%) respectively. The optimum conditions for maximum ethanol concentration in corncobs was the incubator conditions at temperature 30oC and 144 hours; banana peels was under soil conditions at 19oC and48 hours whilst collard greens was dark room conditions at 21oC and 48 hours incubation times. Results obtained show thepotential of producing bioethanol from corn cobs, collard greens and banana peels under different incubation conditions. Useof incubators for fermentation especially in collard greens wastes and banana peels can successfully be replaced with darkroom and soil which are more economically feasible.

The results of the assessment and analysis of the operating modes of the power complex with the constructive and technological combination of hydraulic power plants (HPPs) with solar power plants (SFEU) in the presence of seasonal or daily regulation in the environmental hydro system are presented. The aspects of the operation of a hydroelectric power station with non-self-regulating derivation are considered in detail: when working in a load schedule with a maximum power equal to the installed one, and when the average daily power along the watercourse is approaching the provided one. It was found that in the first case, the influence of the SPEU regime on the joint work with the hydroelectric power station is to move a part of the load graph of the hydroelectric power plant with the maximum power to the base part of the schedule. In the second case, the influence of the SPEU mode consists in changing the variable part of the load graph, but the HPP, in contrast to the first case, retains its position in the load graph of the power system. The mode of operation of the hydroelectric power station becomes more uniform and at the same time, a smaller volume of the daily regulation basin (DRB) is required. For the example considered, the maximum power of the hydroelectric power station during the day increased from 50 MW to 54 MW. It has been revealed that even with the production of SPEU in 18% of the daily production of hydroelectric power plants, the volume of DRB is required approximately two times less. As a result, it is possible to increase the operating head at the hydroelectric power station and obtain the corresponding effect on power and electricity generation.

Calculations of the main characteristics of the conducting network of the drainage and irrigation system are given. The method of hydraulic calculation of the conducting network of the trapezoidal cross-section to be reconstructed is presented. The following data are taken as the initial data: the depth of the flow, the area of the live section, the wetted perimeter, the slope of the channel bed, the roughness coefficient. In this case, the roughness coefficient should be specified according to the reference data, taking into account the state of the riverbed. The following channel parameters are subject to calculation: hydraulic radius, Shezi coefficient, average flow rate and water flow rate. Based on the results of the calculations, average flow rates and water consumption are given in a tabular form, and graphs of the dependencies are constructed. The method for determining water losses from main channels in the earth bed includes the determination of the weighted average filtration coefficient of the ground base according to surveys (drilled wells), the calculation of free filtration, and then taking into account the close occurrence of UGV at a depth of 0.3-2.5 m, the propped filtration is determined according to SP 100.13330.2016 and the efficiency of the channels is calculated. Based on the results of hydraulic calculations of the main channels of the drainage and irrigation system, the main hydraulic characteristics for the main channel of the MC are obtained at the roughness coefficients for the morphostore 1 n = 0.030 and for morphostore 2 n = 0.040. For the main channel MC2, the characteristics are obtained at n = 0.040 and n = 0.030, which differ significantly from each other. For the main channel MC2, the characteristics are obtained at n = 0.040 and n = 0.030. For the main drainage collector of the gas turbine engine, the results of the hydraulic parameters are given at n = 0.040, n = 0.055 morphostvora 4.

Yeniden işlevlendirme adı verilen bu uygulama aslında terk edilmiş ya da özgün işlevini devam ettirmesi mümkün olmayan yapıları, yeni bir işlevle kullanımını sağlayarak gelecek kuşaklara aktarmak için geliştirilmiş bir koruma yöntemidir. Ancak bu yöntem günümüzde sanki bir tasarım modeli gibi kullanılarak tarihi yapıların özgün değerlerinden çok fazla kayıplara neden olmaktadır. Koruma yasasındaki esneklik, sayısal nicelik ve şahıs mülkiyetlerinde olmaları gibi sebeplerle yeniden işlevlendirilerek özgünlük değerlerinden en çok kayıplar veren yapılar geleneksel konutlardır. Tarihi yapılar ve bu yapıların oluşturduğu tarihi çevre, bölgeye özgü fiziksel ve kültürel özellikler sonucu oluşmuş geleneksel mimari örneklerdir. Özellikle geleneksel konutlar bulunduğu bölgedeki günlük yaşam ve kültürü hakkında önemli veriler sunan tarihi belgelerdir. Bu nedenle diğer tarihi yapılar gibi geleneksel konut yapılarının da özgünlüklerinin korunması ve gelecek kuşaklara aktarılması önem arz etmektedir. Yeniden işlevlendirme ile özgün değerlerini yitiren tarihi çevrelerden birisi de Antalya'nın önemli turizm merkezlerinden birisi olan Alanya’dır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada yeniden işlevlendirme ile restorasyonu yapılan geleneksel Alanya konutları çalışma alanı olarak seçilmiş, bu bölgedeki uygulamaların olumlu ve olumsuz yönleri ortaya konularak tartışılmıştır.

Gude nuts are known as wooden nuts on Kisar Island, which is an area that uses wood nuts as food. This study aims to determine the viscosity value and organoleptic test of pigeon pea sauce based on the weight of the beans. This research was conducted in February - March 2021 at the Laboratory of the Biology Education Study Program, FKIP, Pattimura University, Ambon and a viscosity test at the Ambon Industrial Standardization and Research Institute (Baristand) using an experimental research type and the research design used was a completely randomized design ( RAL), using 3 treatments, namely the weight of pigeon pea 150 g, 300 g and 450 g and using 2 replications to obtain 6 samples. This study showed that the weight of pigeon pea had an effect on the viscosity and organoleptic of soy sauce. From the viscosity analysis, the highest viscosity was obtained, namely 608.065 cp with a weight of 450 g pigeon pea, while for pigeon pea 300 g 411.065 cp and 150 g gude beans at 141 cp and organoleptic test obtained the average value of the texture of soy sauce on the treatment of pigeon pea and soy sauce 450 g pigeon pea 300 g with an average value of 4 (very thick) and peanut gude 150 g with an average value of 3 (thick). In the flavor of  pigeon pea sauce 300 g and 150 g have an average value of 3 (fragrant), while for the treatment of 450 g peanuts is 4 (very fragrant). The color of the soy sauce in the pigeon pea sauce treatment was 450 g and 300 g with an average value of 4 (very black), and the 150 g peanut sauce treatment was 3 (black). In the treatment of 450 g of pigeon pea sauce and 300 g of pigeon pea sauce, the average value was 3 (sweet). For 150 g of pigeon pea soy sauce, on average the panelists gave a score of 2 (less sweet). There is an influence on the viscosity because the weight of the nuts used is different. while the organoleptic test showed a thick, fragrant, less sweet, and sweet taste.

Authors: Lata Sneh
Published: October 2021

The
paper discusses about the concept, perception, understanding and consequences
of plagiarism among the future policy makers i.e., students. The paper also
highlights acceptability of copying somebody’s ideas and thoughts to complete
one’s own work which also indicates towards the casual approach of students.
Acknowledging the fact that plagiarism is a kind of deception and is a major
hurdle in the field of academic growth and development. Therefore, this must
not be prevailed as it reduces the opportunity of uniqueness, in a way
degrading the level of development in the thought process of people. Thereby,
the paper tries to put forward the various consequences caused due to copying
others’ ideas rather than putting efforts in creating some new ideas. The paper
also talks about the students’ approach towards the idea of plagiarism and how
educational institution tries to modify their policies in order to reduce the
