Authors:   Malang Institute of Agriculture, East Java, Indonesia., Christianto Victor
Published: January 2023

In previous article, we reported initial findings based on small experiment on potential use of salt- water as cheap source of renewable battery with various kind of metals as anode and cathode. The purpose of these experiments is to find out which combination of anode and cathode is capable to generate the best performance in terms of electric voltage. Following that previous reports, we tried to conduct further simple experiments on possible effect of low intensity laser irradiation on potable water’s electrical features. Nonetheless, this report is slightly disappointing, because as an effect, there is no increase of water electrical feature, instead it may support initial reports by others such as Cohen Tannoudji, Alain Aspect et al, on laser cooling effect to molecules [3][4].

This study was undertaken to determine student respondents’ perception of Team Teaching and Collaborative Learning Strategies in the enhancement of their cognitive and performance skills in TLE 7 ( Dressmaking) as the basis for curriculum innovation. The descriptive method of research was utilized in this study with the use of a survey questionnaire for the responses. The Spearman tool was used to find out if there is a significant relationship between independent variables, Team Teaching and Collaborative Learning Strategies, the dependent variables such as students’ Pre and Post-Test Results as well as Performance skills such as to Application, Creativity, Workmanship, and Safety in TLE. Respondents perceived Team teaching and Collaborative Learning Strategies with an overall mean of 4.49 and 4.56 as Very Highly Observed. The findings reveal that the cognitive and performance skills of the respondents in TLE 7 (Dressmaking) in terms of scores were outstanding after exposure to team teaching and collaborative learning strategies. This research concluded that the null hypothesis stating there is no significant difference between the level of respondent’s performance in Pre and Post-Tests before and after the application of team teaching and collaborative learning strategies in teaching TLE is therefore not sustained. The hypothesis stating that the perception of respondents in Team Teaching and Collaborative Learning strategies are not significantly related to their cognitive and performance skills in TLE 7 is partially sustained. Since most of the findings were significant, it is recommended to keep the fire burning for teachers and improve Team Teaching and for students to continue and improve the scaffolding and online file sharing tool driveHQ strategies as well as be more resourceful in coping challenges in school. Keywords: Online Class Students, Team Teaching, Collaborative Learning Strategy, Scaffolding Strategy, Online File Sharing Tool DriveHQ, Pre-Test and Post-Test, Performance Skills

Authors: Gaina Cynthia , Amalo Filphin
Published: January 2023

Objective: As one of the most valuable genetic resources of Ongole beef cattle globally, the Sumba Ongole (SO) cattle population is being studied in this investigation of myostatin (MSTN) gene polymorphism and its association with growth traits.
Materials and Methods: Blood samples from 161 SO cattle were collected and analyzed. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) was isolated. The DNA was electrophoresed and extracted, and finally, the annealing temperature was optimized, followed by amplification and sequencing. Next, we used a Basic local alignment search tool to assess the sequencing data.
Results: The analysis revealed 22 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MSTN gene in this region that showed genetic variation. Two SNPs, c.424 G > A, and c.467 G > C, were found to be significantly associated with SO cattle phenotypes of wither height, heart girth, and hip height (p < 0.05) but not with body weight or body length (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: As a result of our findings, the MSTN gene polymorphism and its correlation with growth traits in SO cattle may be employed as a candidate marker in SO cattle and other beef cattle breeds.

Published: January 2023

Objective: This study describes the newest deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) barcoding Asian redtail catfish (Hemibagrus nemurus) in the Progo River, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia.
Materials and Methods: Ten fish were caught in the Progo River, Magelang, Central Java, Indonesia. The polymerase chain reaction was the molecular diagnosis to detect the sequences of DNA of Cytochrome Oxidase I compared to National Center for Biotechnology Information data (GenBank).
Results: The results showed that the percent identity was not 100% with H. nemurus data from other locations (GenBank), including Indonesia. The closest percent identity was H. nemurus from Java Island (Accession ID: MK312566.1) with 97.6% similarity. The genetic mutation that hap¬pened might be due to environmental change (pollution) in the Progo River recently.
Conclusions: This study showed a genetic mutation in H. nemurus from Progo River may be caused by environmental change. Low pollution exposure levels may not be detrimental (lethal) to fish. However, it can affect fish fertility, which leads to population degradation (gene variation). Attention must be increased for fish survival in the future.

Published: January 2023

Objectives: This study was designed to examine the effects of various concentrations of tris (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane (tris) and egg yolk on the quality of cryopreserved buck sperm.
Materials and Methods: The collected semen samples were pooled, washed, and diluted into five different freezing extender groups, viz., extender I (tris 0% + egg yolk 0%), extender II (tris 1.41% + egg yolk 4%), extender III (tris 2.41% + egg yolk 8%), extender IV (tris 3.41% + egg yolk 16%), and extender V (tris 4.41% + egg yolk 24%). The sperm parameter of the five groups of extenders was evaluated after equilibration and cryopreservation.
Results: The results showed that extenders II–V provided significantly higher semen progressive motility and total motility percentages than extender I after equilibration (p < 0.05). The higher percentages of semen progressive motility, total motility, viability, and plasma membrane integ¬rity (by both HOST under light microscopy and stain after HOST under light microscopy) were found in the sperm cryopreserved with extender IV than extender I, extender II, and extender III groups after thawing (p < 0.05). In addition, semen progressive motility, total motility, and viability were not further increased, or plasma membrane integrity (by both HOST tests) was decreased by the addition of tris and egg yolk (extender V) after cryopreservation (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: In conclusion, our result indicates that the following washing, the supplementation of tris (3.41% + egg yolk 16%) on the freezing extender are suitable for improving the semen quality of buck after freezing and thawing.

Objective: Brucellosis is an endemic zoonotic infection in Saudi Arabia, including Jazan Province, and epidemiological reports about this disease are limited. In this study, we aimed to investigate knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding brucellosis among the general population of Jazan Province, southwestern Saudi Arabia.
Materials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted using a pretested questionnaire that assessed the level of knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward Brucellosis. The calculated sample size was 384, and 1,055 participants were included representing various genders, ages, and levels of education. Data were collected between March and April 2022 and analyzed using descriptive, chi-square, and t-test analyses.
Results: Only 50% of the included participants have heard about Brucellosis. Among those who had heard about Brucellosis, 70% had a good knowledge about Brucellosis and that was significantly associated with male gender, being healthcare workers (HCWs), and having a higher level of education. Participants who directly involved in animal care represented 9%, and attitudes and practices regarding brucellosis were varied from average to unsatisfactory. This variation was significantly affected by the level of knowledge.
Conclusion: About 50% of the general population of Jazan Province had never heard about Brucellosis, in a region found prevalent for this disease. Good knowledge was recorded in 70% of those who were aware of Brucellosis, which was significantly associated with the male sex, job as being HCW, and having a higher level of education. These results necessitate public awareness campaign activities to improve knowledge and practices, especially among women, the younger generation, and individuals with limited educational backgrounds. This action could reduce the burden of the disease.

Using data from 41 years in Patna, India, the study’s goal is to analyze the trends of how often it rains on a weekly, seasonal, and annual basis (1981–2020). First, utilizing the intensity-duration-frequency (IDF) curve and the relationship by statistically analyzing rainfall, the historical rainfall data set for Patna, India, during a 41-year period (1981–2020), was evaluated for its quality. Changes in the hydrologic cycle as a result of increased greenhouse gas emissions are expected to induce variations in the intensity, length, and frequency of precipitation events. One strategy to lessen vulnerability is to quantify probable changes and adapt to them. Techniques such as log-normal, normal, and Gumbel are used (EV-I). Distributions were created with durations of 1, 2, 3, 6, and 24 hours and return times of 2, 5, 10, 25, and 100 years. There were also mathematical correlations discovered between rainfall and recurrence interval. Findings: Based on findings, the Gumbel approach produced the highest intensity values, whereas the other approaches produced values that were close to each other. The data indicates that 461.9 mm of rain fell during the monsoon season’s 301st week. However, it was found that the 29th week had the greatest average rainfall, 92.6 mm. With 952.6 mm on average, the monsoon season saw the highest rainfall. Calculations revealed that the yearly rainfall averaged 1171.1 mm. Using Weibull’s method, the study was subsequently expanded to examine rainfall distribution at different recurrence intervals of 2, 5, 10, and 25 years. Rainfall and recurrence interval mathematical correlations were also developed. Further regression analysis revealed that short wave irrigation, wind direction, wind speed, pressure, relative humidity, and temperature all had a substantial influence on rainfall. Originality and Value: The results of the rainfall IDF curves can provide useful information to policymakers in making appropriate decisions in managing and minimizing floods in the study area.

Changes in key climate index affect ecosystems and biodiversity. In this regard, the assessment of the climatic conditions is of particular relevance. This study presents the results of an analysis of climate change and digital mapping of soil temperature in the Yangan-Tau UNESCO Global Geopark (Russia). The steady increase in air temperature was revealed, which causes an increase in the sum of active temperatures and the duration of the warm period of the year. Annual total precipitation during 1966-2020 changed the sign of the trend: positive trend (increase in precipitation) in 1966-1990, while in 1991-2020 is negative. The hydrothermal indicators determined the increase in aridity during the warm period. Based on the analysis of changes in the climatic conditions of the geopark, a comparison was made of the temperature regimes of air and soil, and the relationship between these indicators in the snow-free period was revealed (R2 = 0.62). An approach is presented for digital mapping of the temperature regime of the surface layer of soils based on ground-based research data and the results of interpretation of the Landsat thermal bands. A significant relationship between soil temperature and Earth surface temperature for the snow-free period was revealed (R2 = 0.83). Based on the obtained regression model and Landsat 8-9 data for the snow-free period of 2013-2022 the map of the distribution of average temperatures of the surface layer of soil from May to October was produced, which clearly demonstrated the relationship between soil temperature and biomes.

What Is Operant Behavior And How To Study It
Authors:   Conduct science, Corscadden Louise , Sutipatanasomboon Arpaporn
Published: January 2023

Operant behavior describes a type of voluntary goal-directed actions in animals based on the repercussions of previous occurrences. It develops when animals learn to specifically respond to recurring situations based on the outcome of their past experience. American psychologist B.F. Skinner was the first to use operant to describe the behaviors he observed in his landmark experiments in laboratory animals. Operant behavior and conditioning refine the nuance between conscious and unconscious behavioral responses, which influence psychology, and applied behavior analysis, and improve our understanding of addiction, substance dependence, child development, and decision-making.

Hyperphosphatemia in MHD patients is affected by diet and phosphate binders treatment. Thus, we undertook observational research to determine how dietary phosphorus consumption and phosphate binders adherence affect serum phosphate and phosphorus-to-protein ratio (PPR) in MHD. Associations of serum phosphate were examined with identified dietary patterns, organic (plant and animal-based) and inorganic, and whether the patients fully or partially adhered to the phosphate binders. We found a significant difference in phosphate binders on animal and plant sources, high with the animal pattern. However, our study showed no significant correlation in serum phosphate levels. This result could be due to phosphate bioavailability differing by food source and adherence of phosphate binders, which reflect the quantity of phosphate absorbed in the intestines. However, further mechanistic study is warranted. Keywords: Dietary phosphorus, Maintenance hemodialysis, Serum phosphate, Phosphorus­to­protein ratio

Published: January 2023

In this paper, we will attempt to study a fundamental problem, namely, how gas stations operate worse as the outside temperature rises and production decreases. This examination focused on the gas generator made at the Al-Qayyarah gas station. Based on the data from the station's fourth unit, it was discovered that the two factors that affect the compressor's theoretical efficiency, air temperature entering the device, and compression ratio, are strongly correlated. season is larger than summer because more concentrated energy is generated during the winter, reaching 107.5 MW, whilst concentrated energy production in the summer does not go over 85.8 MW, Due to the cold temperatures, efficiency in the winter was only 29%, while in the summer it was 27.2%.

Wages are a painful issue for workers. For entrepreneurs, wages are a cost of
production, and must be as low as possible so that the price of goods is not too high or the
profits are high. For workers, wages are the amount of money they receive at any given
time, and more importantly, the amount of basic necessities they can buy with that wage.
Today, the issue of wages is often the cause of poor relations between employers and
workers. Because one of the parties feels annoyed or wronged because the pay they get is
compared to the work they do. The remuneration system according to Islamic economics is
explained through a library research approach which makes books and other literature the
subject of this research. Consequently, Islamic wages are said to be rewards that an
employee receives for a job well and rightly done in the form of material rewards and
incentives based on al'Adla principles and morality. Form of remuneration. Pay attention
to the human side. This provision is carried out through negotiation mechanisms, market
mechanisms and is determined by the state, even in the form of clothing, in the form of
something of value (shopping centers), both in the form of materials and in the form of
goods and services. It is based on people's customs and must be paid as soon as possible
and without delay.

Small businesses are very vulnerable to survive in uncertain situations. This
study focuses on the Covid-19 pandemic crisis where many small businesses had to shut
down in line with the economic downturn. The previous study acknowledges
entrepreneurial orientation as a suitable strategy for small businesses in an uncertain
environment. This study explains the effect of entrepreneurial Orientation (EO) on SMEs
performance directly and indirectly through Market Orientation (MO) and the role of
Market Orientation on SMEs' performance during pandemic situations. The respondents
of this study are 154 Small Business in Indonesia. The questionnaire of this study consists
of 32 indicators from an independent variable (entrepreneurial orientation) and two
dependent variables (market orientation and SMEs' performance). This study uses
quantitative methods and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with Partial Least Square
(PLS) approach. The results highlight that Entrepreneurial Orientation has a positive
direct impact on SMEs performance. Meanwhile, the mediating role of Market Orientation
does not affect the relationship between EO-SMEs performance. In addition, Market
Orientation has no effect on SMEs' performance during pandemic Covid-19.
Ser o no ser Publicidad, esa es la cuestión
Authors: Tena-Parera Daniel
Published: January 2023

A menudo se critica la publicidad por no ser respetuosa con los cánones sociales en un determinado momento y lugar. La Publicidad en España está regulada por ley desde el año 1988 cuando la Ley general de la Publicidad estableció lo que es y lo que no es publicidad. Sin embargo y aunque exista esta evidencia, la duda y la oposición a determinadas campañas hace de la publicidad una actividad poco reconocida socialmente. Por el contrario, lo que es o no es publicidad es un concepto bien definido técnicamente y legalmente.

Social media has become an important channel for communicating family planning policy in Vietnam. Local governments in this country are using it as the primary channel to spread family planning messages in remote areas. To add to the evidence of previous studies on the role of social media in policy communication, to enrich the research literature, and to make policy recommendations to the Government of Vietnam, this study explores The impact of family planning messages via social networks on family planning behavior. This study was conducted through a cross-sectional survey using an intentional sampling technique (n=200). A multivariable linear regression model was applied to test the hypothesis. Research results show that the factors of attitude to social networks, awareness of family planning messages, and behaviors for family planning have a positive and meaningful relationship with readiness for family planning. Furthermore, the factor awareness of family planning messages has the most significant impact. This result implies that the government and family planning policymakers in Vietnam need to pay attention to social networks and the recipients’ perception of family planning messages.
Utopier, hopp och hopplöshet. Hur feministiska framtidsbilder och känslor av hopp påverkas av den nyliberala diskursen
Authors: Agri Hanna
Published: January 2023

If those who formulate visions of the future are prevented from thinking freely because of a reduced capacity to imagine a different world, then there is a risk that they only advocate limited changes. Some feminist researchers in political theory and philosophy, such as Wendy Brown (2003, 2008, 2015) and Johanna Oksala (2011, 2013), claim that this has affected feminist movements. They believe that hope for a different future has been weakened among today’s feminists and that this development can be explained by the spread of the neoliberal discourse.
In this article, I discuss theories on how the neoliberal discourse has affected feminist movements and relate such theories to the lived experiences of contemporary feminist engagement. The latter is based on an interview study with seven Swedish feminists engaged in different feminist organizations. The analysis indicates that the neoliberal discourse could have affected how utopias are used and what inspires hope among contemporary feminists. The result of the study also indicates that feelings of hopelessness can be useful in feminist work.
#konstnärligfrihet: reifikation som förtryckshandling och motstrategi
Authors: Hansson Karin , Sveningsson Malin , Ganetz Hillevi
Published: January 2023

In the autumn of 2017, more than 2,000 female and non-binary artists and designers in Sweden joined forces in the group #konstnärligfrihet [artistic freedom] to share experiences of sexism, sexual harassment, and sexual violence, and to write a joint petition. Using a media timeline and semi-structured interviews, this article aims to situate #metoo in a larger narrative and investigate how sexual harassment within the Swedish art industry is explained and understood by 13 activists and representatives of art institutions.Our results show that there is a strong connection between oppression and economic exploitation. The art industry is characterized by precarious economic and social relations, but also by the idea of the genius and elitist ambitions of standing outside the social order and embodying an unexploitable particularity. This combination is crucial to understanding sexual harassment in the industry. A central theme in the interviews was the feeling of grief and frustration of not being allowed to work freely as an artist but forced to constantly navigate invisible but tangible structures. These structures are maintained performatively through various acts of oppression that are part of a reification process, which systematically limits the livability of the exposed identities. During #metoo, this reification process was counteracted and turned against the oppressors themselves through an objectification of “men” as oppressors. Another finding relates to the interviewees’ understanding of sexual harassment as based upon power. Here, the positions of powerful and powerless were not univocal. As power intertwines with desire and vulnerability, oppressive acts can be multifaceted and ambivalent, and take place as part of a dynamic negotiation of positions in the informal economic system.
