CHEMICAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF ISOALKANES ON ALUMINUM OXIDE UNDER HYDRODYNAMIC CAVITATION ACTION OF WATER MEDIA
Authors: Дудкин Денис Владимирович , Федяева Ирина Михайловна , Журавлева Людмила Анатольевна
Published: December 2020

На примере эталонного изооктана исследованы химические превращения изоалканов в водной и водно-кислой среде при гидродинамическом кавитационном воздействии на оксиде алюминия. На основании данных газовой хроматографии и газовой хроматографии с масс-спектральным детектированием установлено, что ведение процесса на поверхности твердого катализатора приводит к образованию н-алканов с большей и меньшей, в сравнении с изооктаном, молекулярной массой. Образующиеся в результате механохимического воздействия н-алканы подвержены дегидроциклизации с образованием циклоалканов, бензола и его алкилпроизводных, трансформирующихся далее в конденсированные полиядерные ароматические соединения. Кислая реакция среды подавляет течение свободно-радикального образование н-алканов, усиливает процессы гетеролитической деструкции образующихся н-алканов, характеризующихся образованием циклоалканов.

The chemical transformations of isoalkanes in an aqueous and water-acidic environment under hydrodynamic cavitation action on aluminum oxide were studied using the example of a reference isooctane. Based on the data of gas chromatography and gas chromatography with mass spectral detection, it was found that the process on the surface of a solid catalyst leads to the formation of n-alkanes with a higher and lower molecular weight in comparison with isooctane. N-alkanes formed as a result of mechanochemical action are subject to dehydrocyclization with the formation of cycloalkanes, benzene and its alkyl derivatives, which are further transformed into condensed poly-nuclear aromatic compounds. The acidic reaction of the medium suppresses the free-radical formation of n-alkanes, increases the processes of heterolytic destruction of the formed n-alkanes, characterized by the formation of cycloalkanes.

Afromoda: o uso das roupas e das aparências em corpos políticos
Authors: Da Conceição Lima Dulcilei , Claudia Bonadio Maria
Published: December 2020

A associação entre moda e pessoas negras quase sempre se dá por escândalos de racismo que vez ou outra surgem envolvendo nomes de profissionais, marcas e revistas de moda acusados de discriminação racial na escolha de modelos, de utilização inapropriada e desrespeitosa de elementos de culturas africanas ou afro-brasileiras (como o desfile de Adriana Degreas, na São Paulo Fashion Week (SPFW) 2013, que glamourizou a tortura representada na imagem da escrava Anastácia), na denúncia quanto à ausência de criadores negros nas passarelas e revistas, em situações como a falta de preparo de maquiadores para trabalhar em rostos negros, na grande diferença salarial entre profissionais negros e brancos da indústria da moda, entre tantas outras situações que vem sendo denunciadas especialmente em redes sociais, como nos perfis Moda Racista (deletado após ação judicial movida por Reinaldo Lourenço), Moda Racista Vive, Racismo na Moda e Pretos na Moda (todos no Instagram).

Authors: Kotuchov Yu. A. , Danilova A. N. , Anufrieva O. A.
Published: December 2020

A list of the genus Betula L. was compiled by the authors on the basis of field work carried out in 1970–2019, and also the collections of other collectors stored in the herbarium of Republican state-owned enterprises on the right of economic management “Altai Botanical Garden” (Ridder) and the Institute of Botany and Phytointroduction (Almaty). Purpose: to clarify the species composition and distribution of the genus Betula L. (family Betulaceae S.F. Gray) in the territory of Kazakhstan Altai, the Altai ridges and the Zaysan depression. As a result of the studies established the growth of 15 species and one subspecies of the genus Betula L. in the studying region. The study of herbarium samples, literature data and private collections allowed to supplement the species composition of the genus Betula L. of Kazakhstan with 7 species: B. x aurata Borkh., B. pseudopendula V. Vassil., B. falcata V. Vassil., B. x kelleriana Sukacz., B. х pseudomiddendorffii V. Vassil., B. talassica P. Pol., B. fruticosa subsp. montana M. Schemberg. Species saturation in the studied region: Central Altai – 3 species (18,8% of the total number of species); Southern Altai – 11 (68,75%); Western Altai –11 (68.75%); Kalba Altai – 6 (37,5%); Zaysan depression – 3 (18,75%); Saur-Manrak – 2 (12,5%). The average saturation index of species of the genus Betula L. in the flora of the Kazakhstan Altai and the Altai ranges is 6, which is relatively low, which indicates that family Betulaceae in the studied region is a specific element of boreal and holarctic flora. Keywords: list, genus Betula, species, Kazakhstan Altai, Saur-Manrak, Zaysan depression, distribution, occurrence.
Instytucja uzasadnienia decyzji w ogólnym postępowaniu administracyjnym – z perspektywy 60-lecia uchwalenia kodeksu postępowania administracyjnego
Authors: Sawuła Robert
Published: December 2020

Autor starał się ukazać zasadnicze wątki związane z uzasadnieniem decyzji administracyjnej w polskim ogólnym postępowaniu administracyjnym, jako składnika generalnego nakazu uzasadniania rozstrzygnięć władzy publicznej. Zrekapitulowano kształtowanie się prawnych reguł uzasadnienia decyzji jako instytucji procesu administracyjnego, przekonując, że kwestia ta jest jednym z istotnych zagadnień dla osiągnięcia prawidłowości rozstrzygania indywidualnych spraw administracyjnych w reżimie przewidzianym przez kodeks postępowania administracyjnego. Regulacja ta zdaje się spełniać zasadnicze wymogi pożądanego modelu uzasadniania rozstrzygnięć prezentowanych w prawie europejskim, co nie uprawnia – w przekonaniu autora – by zgłaszać zdecydowane postulaty de lege ferenda w tym zakresie.
Termin na wydanie decyzji o ustaleniu opłaty adiacenckiej (art. 145 ust. 2 u.g.n.)
Authors: Matan Andrzej
Published: December 2020

Jak przyjął NSA w komentowanych wyrokach, w sytuacji gdy przed upływem trzyletniego terminu materialnoprawnego wydana została decyzja organu pierwszej instancji, późniejsze jej uchylenie nie wyłącza możliwości ustalenia opłaty adiacenckiej poprzez wydanie kolejnej decyzji. Pogląd ten nie zasługuje na aprobatę, bowiem samo wniesienie odwołania powoduje upadek decyzji organu pierwszej instancji. Staje się ona jedynie „określoną propozycją” co do treści rozstrzygnięcia. Odwołanie w postępowaniu administracyjnym powoduje przeniesienie pełnej kompetencji do rozstrzygnięcia sprawy na organ wyższego stopnia z tym skutkiem, że orzeczenie pierwszej instancji automatycznie upada. Jeśli orzeczenie organu odwoławczego ma charakter merytoryczny, to ono w istocie rozstrzyga sprawę.

Wobec tego wyeliminowanie z obrotu prawnego decyzji pierwszoinstancyjnej tak ze względu na wniesione odwołanie, jak i w wyniku wyroku sądu administracyjnego powoduje utratę kompetencji organu administracji do orzekania w sprawie. To z kolei skutkuje koniecznością umorzenia postępowania.

Reforming Practicum and Research Training in a Colombian English Teaching Program
Authors:   Universidad Católica Luis Amigó, Abad José Vicente , Zapata García Jefferson ,   Universidad Católica Luis Amigó
Published: December 2020

Over the last two years, the Ministry of Education in Colombia tightened the quality conditions that all teacher education programs must attain in order to operate within the law. In this chapter, the authors present a case study that assessed a curriculum reform implemented by an English teaching program at a private university in response to these government requirements. The study specifically focused on the nature and impact of the modifications made to the program’s practicum and research training components. Data collection consisted in two phases. The first one involved a documentary analysis of (a) the policies restructuring teacher education and (b) the programs’ previous and latest study plans. The second one entailed a series of semi-structured interviews to five participants selected through key-informant and critical-case sampling. The analysis revealed a significant increase in the number of credits allocated to practicum and research training as well as the intentional articulation between them. These changes may reconfigure the student teachers’ practices and teaching identities. However, for this reform to produce the desired effects, the program needs to foster a new research-based culture among all its members.
Teacher Tales About Professional Development in an Evolving Profession
Authors:   Universidad de Guanajuato, Wilson Amanada K.
Published: December 2020

This chapter presents the results of an investigation which explores the impact on in-service teacher development resulting from an evolution in English language teaching in Mexico. Using a qualitative approach grounded in sociocultural theory, it presents the narrated stories of seven English language teachers whose experiences span a period of almost a quarter of a century at a public university in central Mexico. Their development as teachers is seen through the re-living, telling, and re-telling of their lived experiences viewed through a Vygotskian lens. A thematic re-storying system is used to analyze the data collected, revealing common themes beginning with the participants’ entry into the profession, their socialization into the community of teachers, and ultimately, their motivation to develop as teachers. This study is not meant to offer an exhaustive review of all teachers throughout the country, but through these narrated stories, both the how and the why of participants’ in-service teacher development tell a bigger story of a winding path from institutionally-promoted teacher training to self-motivated teacher development and a growing sense of professionalism.
THE PHENOMENON OF "SUBSTITUTE PERCEPTION": PHILOSOPHICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL JUSTIFICATION
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Krieger Eugenia E. , Mishina Galina A. ,   Institute of Special Education of the Russian Academy of Education
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the philosophical and psychological substantiation of the phenomenon of “substitute perception”. The phenomenon of “substitute perception” has long been used in practices based on the system-phenomenological approach, but until now it has not been explained in the scientific environment. The main objectives of this work are: to present methodological grounds for explaining the phenomenon of “substitute perception”, to describe the mechanisms that provide it, and to identify socio-psychological conditions that lead to a greater probability of manifestation of this phenomenon. The novelty of the work is represented not only by the research objectives, but also by the approach used for its construction. The approach was based on the ideas of post-classical psychology presented in systems psychology. The phenomenon of “substitute perception” is considered within the system regulation that occurs between the world of the client and the substitute representing its members of the family system. The article shows the mechanisms of the phenomenon of substitution perception, describes how these mechanisms function in conditions of systemic determination and lead to the emergence of experiences that are not peculiar to the person experiencing them. The main mechanisms that provide this regulation are anticipation and intuition. The article reveals the conditions that contribute to a more likely occurrence of the phenomenon of “substitute perception”. The results obtained in this work allow us to draw scientific grounds for the phenomenon of “substitute perception” and use it in a wide psychological practice.
UZBEKISTAN'S ASSISTANCE TO THE BATTLE-FRONT DURING THE GREAT PATRIOTIC WAR
Authors:   Samarkand State University, Saidov Il'khomzhon M. , Saidova Rakhima I. ,   Samarkand State University
Published: December 2020

The article considers the contribution of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic to the victory in the Great Patriotic War. During the war, thousands of Soviet Uzbekistan’s citizens went to the battle-front, but the participation of the Republic in the war does not end there. The agricultural sector of Uzbekistan tried to make up for the losses of acreage and livestock suffered by the Soviet Union in the first year of the war. A number of Uzbekistan’s enterprises were urgently converted to the production of military goods. Production at factories evacuated to Soviet Central Asia was developing at a rapid pace on the territory of the Republic. Not only skilled personnel, but also volunteers took part in the construction of new factories, plants, and hydroelectric power stations. The authors emphasise that during the war, there was a significant transformation of the Republican economy: the share of industry in the volume of production in the national economy of Uzbekistan increased from 50 to 80%, and the share of heavy industry from 14.3 to 52.4%. In September 1940, 141.6 thousand workers and employees were employed in the Republic’s industry, while in 1945, it was 196.2 thousand. The share of women employed in industrial production increased significantly (from 34.0% in 1940 to 63.5% in 1945). More than 23 thousand young citizens of Uzbekistan aged 14–17 became workers during the war and replaced professionals who had gone to the battle-front. When assessing the contribution of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic to the Great Victory, the authors note that the labour feat of the Republic’s citizens caused its transformation into a reliable arsenal of the battle-front against fascism.
INTERNATIONAL ASSEMBLY OF CAPITALS AND MAJOR CITIES OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF INDEPENDENT STATES. FORMATION, DEVELOPMENT, MAIN DIRECTIONS OF INTEGRATION ACTIVITIES
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Pivovar Efim I.
Published: December 2020

The article dwells upon the Association called “International Assembly of capitals and major cities of the Commonwealth of Independent States”. It examines the activities of the Association for more than twenty years – from its creation on September 2, 1998 up to date. The author of the article shows that over the years of its existence, the “International Assembly of capitals and major cities of the Commonwealth of Independent States” Association, which includes almost 90 cities from 12 post-Soviet States (including Pridnestrovie, Abkhazia, South Ossetia), has become an effective institution of international and trans-regional cooperation: members of the Association exchange experience in urban management and resolving topical issues of urban life, get to know best management practices, establish interaction with international associations and business structures, etc. In addition, according to the author of the article, the Association is an important tool for preserving and strengthening integration ties between cities, regions and countries of the post-Soviet space, and its activities are a real evidence of centripetal trends in the space of the Commonwealth of Independent States at the level of the so-called horizontal ties. Pointing out high diversity of activities of the “International Assembly of capitals and cities of the Commonwealth of Independent States”, the author pays special attention to its social projects, and publication activities (especially publication of “Bulletin of the International Assembly of capitals and cities of the Commonwealth of Independent States” and summary reports).
POST-SOVIET CITY AS A PALIMPSEST
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Kosovan Elena A.
Published: December 2020

The author of the publication reviews the photobook “Palimpsests”, published in 2018 in the publishing house “Ad Marginem Press” with the support of the Heinrich Böll Foundation. The book presents photos of post-Soviet cities taken by M. Sher. Preface, the author of which is the coordinator of the “Democracy” program of the Heinrich Böll Foundation in Russia N. Fatykhova, as well as articles by M. Trudolyubov and K. Bush, which accompany these photos, contain explanation of the peculiarities of urban space formation and patterns of its habitation in the Soviet Union times and in the post-Soviet period. The author of the publication highly appreciates the publication under review. Analyzing the photographic works of M. Sher and their interpretation undertaken in the articles, the author of the publication agrees with the main conclusions of N. Fatykhova, M. Trudolyubov and K. Bush with regards to the importance of the role of the state in the processes of urban development and urbanization in the Soviet and post-Soviet space, but points out that the second factor that has a key influence on these processes is ownership relations. The paper positively assesses the approach proposed by the authors of the photobook to the study of the post-Soviet city as an architectural and landscape palimpsest consisting mainly of two layers, “socialist” and “capitalist”. The author of the publication specifically emphasizes the importance of analyzing the archetypal component of this palimpsest, pointing out that the articles published in the reviewed book do not pay sufficient attention to this issue. Particular importance is attributed by the author to the issue of metageography of post-Soviet cities and meta-geographical approach to their exploration. Emphasizing that the urban palimpsest is a system of realities, each in turn including a multitude of ideas, meanings, symbols, and interpretations, the author points out that the photobook “Palimpsests” is actually an invitation to a scientific game with space, which should start a new direction in the study of post-Soviet urban space.
POLITICAL YEAR OF "SERVANTS OF THE PEOPLE". MAIN TRENDS OF DOMESTIC POLITICAL LIFE IN UKRAINE
Authors:   Russian State University for the Humanities, Guschin Alexandr V.
Published: December 2020

The article is devoted to the analysis of the main trends in the internal political development of Ukraine within the year since coming to power of President Vladimir Zelensky and the “Servant of the People” party. The author identifies key factors contributing to the recessionary trends in the work of the Executive and Legislative branches of government, examines the main shortcomings of the personnel policy of the new authorities, analyzes the possibility of the collapse of the parliamentary majority, characterizes the problem of a drop in the ratings of the current government and the growth of sympathy for the opposition parties among voters of the party “Servant of the People”, provides a forecast of a possible electoral scenario in the local elections in the autumn of 2020, considering the impact of the coronavirus epidemic in the political life of the country. Special attention is paid to the confrontation between local and central authorities, as well as to the problem of regionalization of Ukraine, taking into account the risk of its transition to an uncontrolled state. The author concludes that, although the Ukrainian authorities have managed to achieve certain tactical successes, they have not yet managed to systematically strengthen their position in the eyes of the society, or start reformatting the country. Many election promises have not been fulfilled; the government’s initiatives are declarative and do not affect the foundations of the Ukrainian political system, which needs radical reform.

EFA, CFA, path analyzes, and Slope difference tests have been performed through 384 surveys collected from the local community. As a result, it has been determined that perceived socio-cultural, economic, and environmental positive effects of tourism and negative environmental effects have an impact on satisfaction with tourism development. Meanwhile, it has been determined that the local community's satisfaction with tourism development affects the attitude and gender has a moderator role on this effect. In line with these results, public institutions, tourism professionals, and non-governmental organizations in Manavgat will be able to better perceive the local community's attitudes and behaviors.
Racializing American “Egyptians”: Shifting Legal Discourse, 1690s–1860s
Authors: Ostendorf Ann Marguerite
Published: December 2020

This article situates the historical “Egyptian,” more commonly referred to as “Gypsy,” into the increasingly racist legal structures formed in the British North American colonies and the early United States, between the 1690s and 1860s. It simultaneously considers how those who considered themselves, or were considered by others, as “Egyptians” or “Gypsies” navigated life in the new realities created by such laws. Despite the limitations of state-produced sources from each era under study, inferences about these people’s experiences remain significant to building a more accurate and inclusive history of the United States. The following history narrates the lives of Joan Scott, her descendants, and other nineteenth-century Americans influenced by legalracial categories related to “Egyptians” and “Gypsies.” This is interwoven with the relevant historical contexts from American legal discourses that confirm the racialization of such categories over the centuries.
Mihail Kogălniceanu’s Historical Inquiry into the Question of Roma Slavery in Mid-Nineteenth-Century Romanian Principalities
Authors: Chiriac Bogdan
Published: December 2020

This article examines Ochire istorică asupra sclăviei (A brief historical survey of slavery), a mid-nineteenth-century pioneering study about the history of slavery, to ascertain the growing influence of anti-slavery ideas in the framing of the new Romantic historical discourse about Roma slavery in the Romanian principalities. The study, written by the leading Romanian historian, writer, journalist, and liberal statesman Mihail Kogălniceanu (1817–1891), was published in 1853 in a censored edition and has received only limited scholarly attentiondue to its incomplete form (the full version of the original article has yet to be published). The present paper intends to provide a critical reflection on the main features of Kogălniceanu’s analysis of the institution of slavery in the Romanian principalities by exploring the author’s multilayered interest in the question of Roma slavery, his command of primary sources, and the underlying historical interpretation and social doctrines thatframed his investigation.
Rembang Zone Petroleum Play, Stratigraphic and Petrographic Analysis of Ngrayong Formation as Reservoir, Jamprong Area, Tuban, East Java
Authors: Reka D., S.
Published: December 2020

The following research took place in the Jamprong area, Tuban Regency, East Java Province within a study area of 2 km2. Physiographically, the study area is situated in the anticlinorium of the Rembang Zone. This research aims to define the reservoir potential of outcrop samples from the Ngrayong Formation as an analogue for the subsurface. In addition, the depositional environment and the age of the rock in the research area was determined. The Ngrayong Formation is regarded as a potential reservoir in the North East Java Basin. The accumulated data consists of stratigraphy, petrographic analysisand paleontological analysis of rock samples, and geological mapping has been carried out to determine the distribution of rocks. Facies were determined based on outcrop observations and comprise predominantly arkose sandstone facies with fine – coarse grained, moderately sorted and with cross-bedding, herringbone, and lamination, and another facies namely massive carbonate grainstone. Based on these facies, the interpreted depositional environment is the transition of tidal flat to shallow marine carbonate platform with relative biostratigraphic age of Middle Miocene, Langhian to Serravallian (M6-M8 planktonic foraminiferal biozones). Rocks in the study area have porosity >20% or very good and permeability >130 or fair based on petrographic observations, and this supports the interpretation of the Ngrayong Formations as a potential reservoir of hydrocarbons.

Published: December 2020

Increasing population levels, booming economy and rapid urbanization have greatly accelerated the municipal solid waste (MSW) in our country; in our cities (Bamenda, Buea, Douala, Yaoundé etc.), poor management of solid waste constitutes an urgent problem: flood, deterioration of the urban environment in the form of air, water, and land pollution. Options like recycling and material recovery for subsequent re-use present enormous opportunities for waste management with economic and ecological benefits, wastes as well as plastic and palm nut shell have not yet been recycled satisfactorily; the performances of palm nut shell-plastic composites of 30% palm kernel shell with particle sizes varying from 1mm to 5mm and 70% of polyethylene were used to produce different samples The effects of palm kernel shell particles’ size on mechanical and physical properties of the new composite were studied by the help of different mechanical (flexural and compressive test) and physical tests (density and water absorption). Results showed a better interaction of polyethylene and palm kernel shell particles at 1mm sieve with compressive stress and water absorption higher at 1mm, ultimate flexural stress and the young’s modulus of the material increased as the particle size of the palm kernel shell increased, relatively higher density were obtained at 3mm of the palm kernel shell (PKS) size.

Authors:   American Welding Society, CHEN ZONGYAO , CHEN JIAN , FENG ZHILI
Published: December 2020

Monitoring weld pool geometry without the appropriate auxiliary light source remains challenging due to the interference from the intense arc light. In this work, a new software framework was developed to measure the key features related to welding pool three-dimensional (3D) geometry based on the two-dimensional (2D) passive vision images. It was found that the interference of the arc light on the weld pool image can be effectively controlled by adjusting the camera exposure time based on the decision made from machine learning classifier. Weld pool width, trailing length, and surface height (SH) were calculated in real time, and the result agreed with the measurement of the weld bead geometry. The method presented here established the foundation for real-time penetration monitoring and control.

Los cromosomas holocinéticos carecen de una constricción primaria y se encuentra mayormente en insectos, entre ellos el orden Dermaptera, comúnmente conocido como “tijeretas”. Los integrantes del género Doru son depredadores de plagas en cultivos de maíz, caña de azúcar y algodón, que se distribuyen ampliamente en Sudamérica. En Argentina se encuentran dos especies: D. lineare (Eschs.) y D. luteipes (Scudder). El material se recolectó en la provincia de Tucumán (Argentina). Para teñir los cromosomas se aplicaron técnicas citogenéticas clásicas, así como el método fluorescente DAPI. El análisis comparativo entre D. luteipes y D. lineare reveló que ambos taxones tienen fórmula haploide n = 10 (9A + XY) y 2n = 20. Además, se encontraron numerosas irregularidades meióticas y se observaron cromosomas holocinéticos sin constricción primaria que varían gradualmente en tamaño. Se presenta por primera vez información citogenética para D. luteipes, se realizan las primeras descripciones de los cariotipos para ambas especies y se discute el posible origen poliploide del género.

Published: December 2020

With the visual illusion of the mirror, Mirror Therapy, models the primary somatosensory cortex, cortical and muscular excitability, stimulating cortical reorganization and sensorimotor recovery. Studies have shown to be effective in improving motor function in short and medium term, in activities of daily living, in visuospatial neglect and in reducing pain, especially in patients with complex regional pain syndrome. Objective: To report the perception of Occupational Therapists regarding the application of Mirror Therapy in professional practice. Specifically, what factors lead to its application, what are the effects and benefits of the technique, what are its advantages and limitations. Results: In the perception of Occupational Therapists, the Mirror Therapy technique has the following benefits: significant decrease in pain, improved sensitivity and functionality of the upper limb, unblocking movements in the affected limb, decreased phantom pain; as negative aspects: difficulties in spatial / environmental control, patient's perceptual / cognitive skills, high level of concentration / attention, absence of scientific evidence in neurological conditions. Conclusion: For the interviewed Occupational Therapists, the Mirror Therapy is a safe and useful technique to be applied in your professional practice that has been showing positive results in the functional recovery of patients, however, it lacks studies that identify the appropriate time to start its application and the explanation of an intervention protocol.

Globally, in-home drug-storage compliance is often unsatisfactory, especially among older adults, and can lead to negative health outcomes. This study used a cross-sectional and descriptive design to examine in-home drug-storage compliance among older adults. Convenience sampling was used to recruit 117 older adults in Hong Kong. An in-home drug-storage checklist was used to assess the in-home drug-storage environments (light, temperature, and humidity) and drug-storage methods (drug safety, packaging, information, and expiration) of each older adult. The findings showed that Hong Kong older adults’ overall compliance rate in drug storage was 87.25%, and their compliance rate for drug-storage methods (84.59%) was lower than that for drug-storage environments (97.02%). Older adults who were of advanced age, who were less educated or who lived alone demonstrated lower in-home drug-storage compliance. This indicates the need to revise existing health-education strategies to encourage in-home drug-storage compliance. Healthcare professionals should assess older adults’ drug-storage compliance to identify less compliant subgroups and deliver specific drug-storage support as required. Family members should also be involved in this process.
Microbial Biocontrol of Post-harvest Fungal Rot in Apples: Current State of the Science
Authors: Nabila EL Alami , Soufiyan EL Attari
Published: December 2020

Our study consists of a careful literature review carried out with the aim of better understanding the models developed in the field of biocontrol of postharvest fungal rot in apples (PHFRA) over the past two decades. It aims, more specifically, to shed light on the progress made by examining the products developed, their nature, their target pathogens, their effectiveness, theirs modes of action and the stage of their development. The post-harvest biocontrol of apples has made remarkable progress during the last twenty years of research. Several products (yeasts, bacteria, filamentous fungi and actinomycetes) have been selected. Some, are already marketed, others are at different stages of development. However, several points limit the optimal use of microbial antagonists in the bio-management of post-harvest apple rots as an alternative to chemicals. It is, in fact, still necessary to develop appropriate formulations of these microbial biocontrol agents, to better study their mechanisms of action, to test them under commercial conditions and against a broad spectrum of pathogens and hosts. However, although sometimes considered less effective than chemical treatments, biocontrol products based on microorganisms have major advantages for an application in an integrated post-harvest apple protection strategy.

Providing good quality of service is most basic attribute of the service industry, including tourism. Complaints by tourists actually provide opportunities for destination or business to recover from the service failures, and when the complaints are handled satisfactorily, destination or business may win tourists back. Therefore, this study aims to explore how complaint constraints influence on t ourists' overall satisfaction level. In order to achieve the objectives, this study used a quantitative approach using PLS-SEM. This study revealed that overall tourists' satisfaction is influenced by limited time, unfamiliarity, limited communication, limited involvement, and positive holiday mood.
How to Manage Lionfish Envenomation?
Authors: Sümen Selin Gamze , Öztürk Bayram
Published: December 2020

Lionfish have highly toxic venom and envenomation may result in a wide spectrum of complaints in humans ranging from sharp pain to infection and necrosis of the soft tissue. Symptoms of lionfish envenomation include sharp pain, swelling, redness, bleeding, nausea, numbness, anxiety, joint pain, headache, dizziness, and even anaphylactic reaction resulting in death. Treatment involves applying immersion of the affected area in hot water at 42-45 0C for 30-90 min, analgesics, tetanus toxoid, and antibiotics. Complications such as soft tissue infection, bone-joint infection, and even tissue necrosis may appear due to the tissue damage of unnoticed fish spines or other foreign bodies.
A 36-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital with complaints of swelling, redness, and hardness on the joint of his middle finger. The patient had a history of a sting by a lionfish while he was swimming a month prior. After consulting with the radiology department, the patient was diagnosed with embedded foreign bodies in the puncture wound. He underwent two surgical repairs and his wound healed without complication. Functional recovery of the affected area of the extremity was achieved by the medical support of a diving physician who is familiar with the health problems related to the marine environment. In addition to the case presentation, we also discuss the history, clinical manifestations, and current treatment for envenomation from this venomous animal.
As the population of this species has been increasing, scientists should focus on taking action at a global, regional, national, community, and individual level for solutions. It should be a priority to create awareness and prepare strategies related to prompt diagnosis, initial treatment, and prevention of the injury.
