The phytochemical profiling of different extracts revealed the presence of high concentration of CBD in 80:20 hydroalcoholic extract, and that of THC in 60:40 hydroalcoholic extract. The MTT assay of combination of CBD and THC highlighted the extracts as potent cytotoxic agents against prostate cancer (PC3) cells, with IC50 values of 1292 ng/ml, 953.3 ng/ml and 1134 ng/ml, respectively for HCP-CO4, HCM-CO1 & HCZ-CO1. The molecular docking study revealed a good binding of androgen receptor (PDB ID, 2am9) with CBD and THC possessing binding affinity energy of -7.1 and -7.2 kcal/mol respectively. Based on the amino acid residual interaction of CBD and THC within the 2am9 receptor, THC reported additional hydrogen bonds as compared to CBD, suggesting it to be more potent antagonist in comparison to CBD. The present study highlighted the potential of CBD and THC as a therapeutic agent for treatment of prostate cancer.
Understanding Mycotoxins from Ayurvedic Perspectives: A Trans-disciplinary approach

Published: November 2023

Knowledge of the source/origin of a toxin, its development and toxicity manifestation as well as appropriate remedial measures is an integral part of any health system. Mycotoxins are chemical toxins produced by fungi with diverse toxic effects depending on their chemical structure. Modern science recognizes mycotoxins as food contaminants and recommends regulatory limits (max permissible limit), due to the impossibility in avoiding the mycotoxin occurrence completely and for the complications in treating the resulting toxicities. This brings traditional systems of medicine such as ayurveda into the limelight to address the global mycotoxin problem. In this regard, there is paucity of literature available describing the mycotoxins from ayurvedic perspectives. Thus, the current article is focused on the transdiciplinary understand of the mycotoxins and its toxic effects, especially comparing modern medicine with ayurveda. While, modern medicine considers mycotoxins as chemical toxins with molecular mechanism involving receptor or chemical binding, ayurveda considers a holistic approach. In addition to considering its effects on cellular level, ayurveda aligns to recognize the toxin for its effects on the system at tissue and organism level, holistically. From this prespective, ayurveda classifies mycotoxins as both incompatible food (virudha ahara) and visha (toxin). To understand the pathogenesis, ayurveda analyses the systemic effects in terms of effect on “the basic body composition - doshas (humors) and dhaatus (tissues) and the impact on toxin/metabolic waste elimination”. Finally, after considering the overall effect ayurveda arrives at the treatment to provide both symptomatic treatment and reinstate the doshas/dhaatus to restore the health status, holistically.

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is an important spice and medicinal herb that is widely cultivated in Uttarakhand, India. The state of Uttarakhand is known for its rich diversity of fenugreek, which provides a valuable source of genetic material for breeding programs to improve the crop's productivity, quality, and resilience. Fenugreek has a long history of use in the region, both as a food and as a medicine, and its diversity is an important part of the cultural heritage of the region. In this review, we provide an overview of the diversity of fenugreek in Uttarakhand, including its geographical distribution, genetic and morphological diversity, nutritional and medicinal properties, and traditional uses. We also discuss the threats to fenugreek diversity in the region and the importance of conserving it for food security, medicinal value, cultural heritage, and environmental sustainability. The review highlights the need for continued research and conservation efforts to ensure the preservation of fenugreek diversity in Uttarakhand.
THE INFLUENCE OF EDUCATIONAL TECHNOLOGY ON WELL-BEING STATUS: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Authors: Maluleke Abdul Feroz
Published: November 2023

Undoubtedly, Information Technology (IT) has significantly expanded global educational accessibility. Extensive research underscores the need to examine how educational technology adoption affects the well-being of educators and learners, considering education's potential to enhance well-being and mitigate socio-economic challenges. This study aims to comprehensively review the impact of educational technology on human well-being in diverse educational contexts. Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, a systematic review encompassed databases such as Web of Science, Science Direct, SAGE, and Taylor and Francis. Thirteen selected articles underwent rigorous analysis. Findings reveal contextual variations in the influence of educational technology on well-being, with both positive and negative effects observed. In numerous contexts, a negative correlation between educational technology use and well-being is evident, exacerbated by insufficient training leading to stress among teachers and learners. Quantitative predominance in existing studies suggests a future shift toward qualitative or mixed-method approaches, offering deeper insights into the intricate relationship between educational technology and well-being across diverse settings. In conclusion, urgent interventions are needed to ensure equitable access to educational technologies and training. Such efforts should extend to least developed countries and small island developing states, fostering well-being enhancement and socio-economic progress through holistic technology integration in education.

Authors: Roza Delvia
Published: November 2023

Many studies concentrate on the motivations of teachers in educational settings and with regard to teaching English as a foreign language. The motivations of teachers in a privatized environment like an English language centre would thus be interesting to research. The aim of the study was to investigate the teachers’ motivations in teaching TOEFL and IELTS test preparation by employing a qualitative approach with a case study. The purposive sampling method was used to recruit 10 teachers who had been instructing TOEFL and IELTS for more than ten years in one of the language training institutions in Pekanbaru. Four of the teachers had master's degrees in education and TESOL, while the others had bachelor's degrees with majors in English education. The data were gathered in person via audiotaped semi-structured interviews, and thematic analysis, as described by Braun & Clarke (2012), was used to examine the data. It was discovered that the factors that drove teachers to teach TOEFL and IELTS were: 1) their passion for teaching; 2) their test score improvement; 3) their self-development; 4) their satisfaction in helping students; 5) no required lesson plans; and 6) salary and career building.

Published: November 2023

It is thought that the development of the Senjoyo River as a tourist attraction in Semarang Regency will cause changes to the natural ecosystem in the area, one of which is changing the structure of the existing gastropod community. This research is a quantitative analysis research using a survey method that aims to examine the structure of the gastropod community after the development of tourism activities on the Senjoyo River. Gastropod samples were taken from 10 different observation stations along the Senjoyo River, which are located at 7˚22'23"S and 110˚31'37"E. Observation station locations were determined by the purposive random sampling method, based on tourism activity density. The result showed types of gastropods that were found in the Senjoyo River namely, Sulcospira testudinaria, Tarebia granifera, Brotia costula, Thiara scraba, and Melanoides tuberculata with clustered distribution patterns (Id>1). Statistical analysis showed that location affected gastropod abundance (Asymp. Sig of 0.043), with the highest abundance found at station seven (45,11 individuals/m2). So station seven, with sandy and muddy substrate conditions, moderate current speed (0.257 m/s), and rarely found human activity, is the most suitable location to support the survival of gastropods in the Senjoyo River. Furthermore, the gastropod community structure indicates environmental changes at observation stations nine and ten, the locations where the most activities and construction of tourism facilities were found. That was indicated by the low diversity (H’= 0.00-0.01) and evenness (E = 0.00) index of gastropods, and there is dominance by Sulcospira testudinaria (C= 0.98-1.00).
Stomatal Characteristics in Three Groups of Mangrove Plants: Major, Minor, and Associate
Authors: Siahaan Febrina Artauli , Lestari Dewi
Published: November 2023

Three types of mangroves inhabit different environmental gradients and zones within the mangrove ecosystem. These three mangrove types exhibit distinct adaptation strategies. Stomata, as a crucial organ of the plant system, play a significant role in the adaptability of plants. Understanding stomata is essential for comprehending the physiological conditions and responses of plants to environmental conditions. This research aimed to study the stomatal characteristics of three different mangrove types and gain a deeper understanding of their potential adaptive strategies. This research was conducted at the Mangrove Botanical Garden Gunung Anyar, Surabaya, in November 2022. We selected two representative mangrove species from the major, associate, and minor types. Stomata of each mangrove species were observed to identify the stomatal type, density, and size using an Olympus microscope at 100 xs and 400 x magnifications. The results showed there were variations in stomatal type, density, and stomatal length and width among studied mangrove types. Major mangrove species exhibited the lowest stomatal density and the largest size of stomata compared to minor and associated mangroves. The diversity of stomatal traits among major, associate, and minor mangrove types underscores their adaptations and ecological strategies.

У статті здійснено обґрунтування гуманізму як чинника формування професійної компетентності майбутніх логопедів, детально розглянуто специфіку їх підготовки в умовах університету. Проаналізовано шлях суспільства до сучасного розуміння гуманістичних завдань спеціальної освіти, періоди становлення системи освіти осіб із порушеннями розвитку в Україні. Історичний огляд розвитку гуманістичної педагогіки та аналіз стану сучасної освіти переконливо доводять, що ідея гуманізму, покладена в основу найвідоміших прогресивних педагогічних учень, набуває найбільшої актуальності у вирішальні періоди суспільного розвитку, коли чітко простежується потреба певного суспільства в духовному єднанні людей. Саме тому сьогодні відбувається орієнтація українського суспільства на демократичні принципи, гуманізацію освітнього процесу, впровадження інклюзивного освітнього середовища. Наголошується, що гуманізація ставлення сучасного українського суспільства до людей з особливостями розвитку виявилася в державній політиці інклюзії в освіті та усіх інших сферах соціального життя, внесла суттєві зміни в професійну діяльність педагогів загалом і педагогів у сфері спеціальної освіти, логопедів, зокрема. Цілком закономірно, що у зв’язку з цим державою висуваються якісно нові вимоги до фахівців системи спеціальної освіти. У статті підкреслено, що в умовах зміни парадигмальних проєкцій зростає роль майбутнього логопеда як прикладу соціально-педагогічно доцільних способів взаємодії з оточуючими та безпосереднього організатора гуманістичного середовища в інклюзивному освітньому просторі, в якому він взаємодіє з дитиною з особливими потребами, дитячим колективом, батьками дітей. Для розв’язання названих вище завдань визначальне значення має професійна компетентність логопеда, сформована на засадах гуманізму в результаті підготовки у закладах вищої освіти. Ключові слова: гуманізм, гуманізація, професійна компетентність, майбутні логопеди, фахова підготовка.

У статті схарактеризовано особливості організації дистанційного та змішаного навчання в університетах України на основі внутрішніх рефлексій та систематизації загальнонаціонального досвіду їх упровадження у мирний час та в контексті війни. Проаналізовано підходи до розуміння дистанційного й змішаного навчання та визначено специфіку українського контексту. Визначено етапи розвитку дистанційного та змішаного навчання в Україні, починаючи з 2000 р. У фокусі дослідження виділено три основні етапи: примусове дистанційне навчання, змішаний формат навчання та змішаний формат дистанційного навчання. Досліджено специфіку використання дистанційно-змішаного навчання для різних груп університетів, поділ яких обумовлено картою бойових дій. Доведено, що стрімкий перехід до дистанційного та змішаного навчання дозволив чітко окреслити як переваги цих форм (доступність та гнучкість, розширення можливостей університетів, викладачів та здобувачів, перехід на сучасні технології), так і оголити недоліки (недостатність фінансування, брак технічних ресурсів, доступу до ліцензованого програмного забезпечення, адаптація навчальних курсів до дистанційного формату з урахуванням специфіки та можливостей кожного університету) й виклики (якість освіти, наявність технічної інфраструктури, соціальна взаємодія, підготовка викладачів та здобувачів). Визначено, що український контекст упровадження дистанційного та змішаного навчання має свою специфіку, яка наразі обумовлена стрімкістю, невизначеністю й нерівністю умов, у яких опинилися учасники освітнього процесу. Результати дослідження свідчать, що дистанційна та змішана освіта в університетах України є потужним інструментом для покращення доступності та якості освіти, однак у той же час складним процесом, який вимагає глибокого аналізу, узгодженості, підготовки та залучення всіх зацікавлених сторін задля його зосередженості на потребах учасників освітнього процесу.

Using the Analytical Multi-Criteria Hierarchy (AHP) approach and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), this article seeks to discover crucial success criteria for e-learning during COVID-19 in order to enhance process education. Based on established assessment criteria and multi-channel e-learning methodologies, data was gathered by interviewing 69 e-learning leaders in educational institutions during COVID-19. We discovered that managing technology, assisting management, educating students about the usage of the e-learning platform, and requiring a high level of information technology exchange from the lecturer are all important. Universities, staff, and students have had the biggest influence on online learning during COVID-19. The most useful of the five learning models is blended learning. These findings show that e-learning preparation plays a significant impact in boosting the educational process during the COVID-19 pandemic, regardless of the specific technology used by an educational institution.

We have been constantly reminded that, we are not going to succeed in achieving any kind of social change unless we build astrong civil society. Consequently, lots of NGOs in Georgia are founded with the intention to realize this dream. However, we havegot a long way ahead of us.After the election of Obama, when discussing the history of the United States of America, particularly while talking about the1950-1960s, Georgian people knowingly nod their heads, expressing their understanding that it was an era of intense struggle forfighting for the basic rights by Civil Rights Movement activists, - African Americans.In order to get full and concise perspective of the significance of the Civil Rights movement, we must provide some informationon the impact of the decision on other social movements. Undoubtedly, social movements play an influential role in culture, publicpolicy and mainstream politics: they respond to it and influence it.

Archangorodsky and Moorehouse: Good Initiatives and the Key to Success
Authors: Shaduri George
Published: November 2023

Russian literature gives us many brilliant examples of prophetic ideas. In the XX century, this line was continued by such talented writers, as Alexander Solzhenitsyn. One of his works, The Red Wheel, is deeply influenced by American writer John Dos Passos both in form and content. Solzhenitsyn’s Red Wheel is a reflection of Dos Passos’ U.S.A.: in the U.S.A. capitalism wins over socialism, while in The Red Wheel socialism wins over capitalism. Solzhenitsyn seeks the reason for that. With this regard, the article considers two key characters of these works: The Red Wheel’s Ilia Archangorodsky and U.S.A.’s John Ward Moorehouse. We find out that John Ward Moorehouse achieves his personal objectives through bringing together two rivaling parties: capital and labor. Archangorodsky seeks the answer for the failure of reforms in Russia, and finds no answer. The answer, though, lies in social institutions: Moorehouse is the pioneer of public relations in America, and that is the social institution Russian desperately needs in order to survive, but fails to do so because of its absence.
Teaching Foreign Languages under the Conditions of Globalization
Authors: DIASAMIDZE Gulnara
Published: November 2023

Foreign languages play a rather important role in the current multi-cultural globalized market. Knowledge of a foreign language can help you to effectively cooperate with your colleagues, serve the clients better and even built a totally new career! For whatever reason a foreign language is studied, self-confidence is definitely gained in the process of learning by achievement of the set objectives. In addition, in the process of learning you make many new friends among bearers of the language in the neighborhood, as well as on other continents! Knowledge of a foreign language is a skill which you will never lose (provided that you practice on a regular basis). Besides, learning of a foreign language can help you to develop the capacities of your brain, have a better understanding of other cultures and enhance relations with your foreign friends and colleagues! To do that, it is necessary to know their culture, traditions, customs etc. This plays an important role in the effectiveness of communication as well as teaching foreign languages. Many failures in international contacts and in the pedagogical practice result from ignoring them. The globalization process, in which all of us are involved, requires that students of non-linguistic specialties study foreign languages which will help them to find their way in the specialty, help them to communication and express their ideas in a competent manner. For that we should revise the result of learning a foreign language by students as well as expand the range of methodic means in teaching.

Published: November 2023

The objective of this essay lies in the explanation of the normative Hegelian conception of the State, with the aim of understanding its political legitimacy in modernity. This thesis, which I will call the thesis of the legitimacy of the State, will be defended against the thesis of the phobia of the State, defended by various critics of Hegel. With this claim I will try to defend the rationality of the State in Hegelian philosophy. To do this, in the first section I will begin with the exposition of a whole series of criticisms raised againt the Hegelian State, while in the second section I will present the reasons concerning why Hegel conceived the State as a hieroglyph of reason, to end thus, in the third section, with a final sketch about the legitimacy of the modern state in Hegel's political thought.

This article investigates the impact of geothermal water from the Cherkashinskaya No. 36-RG self-injection exploration well on ecosystem watercourses. The well was drilled in 1965 to investigate deposits of iodine-bromine water. This article presents estimations of the acceptable levels of radiation hazard content in the water and near-bottom sediments of gravity-flow hydrogeological wells. The radiation safety of working with these materials for personnel in geological exploration and national economic enterprises is also evaluated. The article provides information on the study of the natural radiation background, as well as results on the natural radioactivity of the bottom sediments and the volumetric radium content of the water. Natural radioactivity in the bottom sediments of potassium (40K) and thorium (232Th) is analyzed in this study. The relevance of this research originates from over fifty years of pollution by highly mineralised iodine-bromine water within the catchment area of one of Western Siberia's largest transboundary rivers, the Irtysh River. The Aremzyanka River is first-order tributary of the Irtysh River, and it receives water from a stream originating from exploration well No. 36-RG.

Applying nitride or oxide coatings in the form of thin layers is a method that can enhance steel structures and resilience of oil pipelines against flooding and corrosion. Such coatings have excellent corrosion-resistant properties. The article presents the results of an assessment of the use of both ionic and electronic modifications of nitride coatings (TiN) on stainless steel to enhance its resilience against hydrogenation and degradation processes occurring during the hydrogen accumulation in the surface layer. These processes lead to embrittlement and corrosion of steel. O2+ and N2+ ions with an energy of 20 keV/charge were chosen as ions for modifying the coatings; the irradiation fluences were in the range of 1013-1015 ion/cm2 . Electrons with an energy of 500 keV and radiation doses from 100 to 500 kGy were utilised to carry out the electron modification process. The experimental results indicate that modifying the ionic content contributes to the creation of more dislocation defects in the structure. This accumulation of defects results in improved strength and resistance to cracking. Through electron irradiation, the thermal effect primarily modifies the crystal structure, enhancing both its stability and densification. An analysis of the effect of hydrogenation and corrosion has demonstrated that ionic modification using a fluence of 5 × 1013 ion/cm2 enhances the stability of the coating structure and elevates corrosion potentials.
An estimation of reservoir pressure dynamics and recoverable gas reserves based on the data of production well surveys

Published: November 2023

In the development of gas fields, reservoir pressure can be used to estimate gas reserves by means of the material balance methodology and to calculate drained reserves. This provides an indication of the effectiveness of the development system. The authors of the article suggest a methodology for determining drained reserves in wells without reservoir pressure measurements. This approach is useful if the well stock is put into operation concurrently or within a brief period of time. Numerical modelling and analysis of field development data have led the authors to conclude that the current flow rate of wells, the hydrodynamic parameters of the productive formation and the interference of nearby wells are the most significant factors controlling the amount of drained reserves. The use of this technique will improve the understanding of the current processes occurring in the reservoir, clarify the assessment of the energy of the deposit and the value of the initial gas reserves, and also create an additional source of information for timely and more accurate decision-making in field development. Adopting this methodology can improve the understanding of ongoing processes in the reservoir, enhance evaluations of reservoir energy and initial gas reserve sizes, and provide additional information resources for making decisions on field development in a more timely and precise manner.
Electromagnetic technologies in the system of oil production innovative methods at the fields of the Republic of Bashkortostan
Authors: Rabtsevich A. A.
Published: November 2023

An increase in the share of hard-to-recover oil in the total balance of its reserves, which is particularly important for the Republic of Bashkortostan, inevitably makes it necessary to search for and commercially introduce new ways to extract it. Among the many methods of increasing oil recovery and intensifying the inflow, the method of influencing the bottomhole zone of the formation with a high-frequency electromagnetic field is distinguished, which, despite many years of research, is still considered experimental in Russia and is limited to evaluating the production and technical characteristics of use. At the same time, financial and economic indicators are overlooked, the identification of which will justify the relative low cost and high profitability of the innovative method.

The purpose of the study is to determine the feasibility of introducing methods of oil field development based on the use of electromagnetic field energy. The main research methods are the analysis of scientific literature on the research topic, systematization and generalization of specialized state statistics data. The calculation part uses methods of economic analysis and business analytics.

The existing technologies for oil field development in the Republic of Bashkortostan are considered, a conclusion is made about their obsolescence and the need to replace them with technologies based on new physical principles. The prospects of electromagnetic technologies and the degree of development of this topic in the scientific environment of Russia and the Republic of Bashkortostan are indicated. With the help of modelling, the economic effect of the introduction of technology for influencing the bottomhole zone of the formation with a high-frequency electromagnetic field has been established, the possibilities of covering the deposits of the Republic of Bashkortostan suitable for development have been determined.

The results of the study can be used in the analysis of the prospects of regions with the predominant development of the oil production and oil refining complex, on the territory of which there are large areas of depleted fields that require the use of innovative technologies for additional production. Further research may be devoted to assessing the economic and technological efficiency of using electromagnetic and other innovative technologies for influencing the reservoir directly in fields with different properties of residual oil and geological and geophysical parameters of the host reservoirs.
Titulature of the Kara-Khitay rulers in Muslim sources of the 12th–15th centuries
Authors: Timokhin D. N.
Published: November 2023

The power of the Qara-Khitay for a relatively short period of time, by historical standards, from the second quarter of the 12th to the beginning of the 13th centuries. had a huge impact on the political development of eastern Desht-i Qipchak, as well as on the settled Muslim regions of Transoxiana and Khorasan. The rulers of the Qara-Khitay actively intervened in the struggle for the “Seljuk inheritance” after the death of Sultan Sanjar in 1157 with the Khorezmshahs of the Anushteginid dynasty and the sultans of Gur, to subordinate to their power the regional rulers of Transoxiana, as well as individual nomadic Turkic tribes in these lands — for example, the Qarluks. In this regard, the history of the Qara-Khitay state was reflected in numerous Muslim historical and geographical writings of the pre-Mongol era and later period. Modern researchers, both in their works on the history of Central Asia and in the few works dealing directly with the Qara-Khitay state, call the Qara-Khitay ruler uniformly — “Gur Khan”. However, there is no such unanimity regarding the title of the Qara-Khitay ruler in the composition of Muslim historical and geographical works, especially pre-Mongol time. Moreover, up to a certain point, the title “Gur Khan” does not occur in them at all, and Muslim authors use other markers to denote the Qara-Khitay ruler. In this regard, it was interesting to trace the evolution of this title as part of Muslim sources not only of the 12th — early 13th centuries, but also as part of later monuments. All this will make it possible to understand more clearly not only how the authors of different times titled the Qara-Khitay ruler, but also what they understood by this or that title, how well they imagined its origin, etc. This will also allow us to highlight a certain tradition of describing the history of the Qara-Khitay statehood as part of Muslim historical writings and identify the key monuments in this case, as well as highlight certain controversial subjects related to the titulature of the Qara-Khitay rulers.

Toward a Methodology for the Study of Buddhist Fine Art: (using an example of Zanabazar’s works)
Authors: Syrtypova S.-Kh. D.
Published: November 2023

The article provides a comparative analysis of different approaches to the study of Buddhist iconography and objects of religious art: scientific academic and traditional Buddhist. Their main goals and objectives, understanding of the fine art style in art history and the Buddhist tradition are considered. The possibility and necessity of using diverse sources of research, or rather, the complex and multidisciplinary principle of working with cult images of Buddhas, bodhisattvas and deities for the most profound and adequate understanding of them, as well as exhibiting them in a museum or other exhibition space, is argued. The ideal model for the development of such a research methodology, in the author's opinion, is the work of the greatest Buddhist master Gombodorjiin Zanabazar (1635–1723), who combined the qualities of both an artist, a highly educated Buddhist adept, spiritual mentor, and a ruler of the state. The types of written and other verbal sources, as well as the types of objects or visual sources that should be used to reveal the theme of Buddhist artistic creativity are considered. It was also made an attempt to formulate the most urgent tasks and promising directions for researchers of Tibeto-Mongolian Buddhists fine arts.

The Role of Yusuf Akçura in the Formation of Turkish National Historiography
Authors: Vasiliev A. D. , Shariafetdinova D. Z.
Published: November 2023

This article discusses the formation of Yusuf Akçura as a professional historian and one of the founders of the Turkish national historiography in the Republican period. Researchers of his works used to focus on his socio-political activities, educational and public work. His role as one of the first Turkish historiographers, who took seriously the idea of the Turkic origin of the Turkish nation, remains still understudied basically. It is noteworthy that he stood at the foundations of the official concept of national history after the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. Akçura succeeded to include (pre-)modern history of the Turkic peoples of Eurasia in the Thesis on Turkish History (see: [Türk Tarihinin Ana Hatları, 1930]), which became the basis of the official historiography in Republican Turkey. As is known, M. K. Ataturk noticed him and introduced him into the group of the new Turkish political elite charged to formulate the official republican historical and educational discourse in the early 1930s. It was because of Akçura’s works, that history of the Turks began to be studied and taught in Republican Turkey.
