Bacterial antibiotic resistance is a type of drug resistance whereby some sub-populations of bacterial species are able to survive after exposure to one or more antibiotics. The study was aimed to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profile of some enterobacteria from respiratory tract infection (RTIs) patients attending some tertiary Hospital in Kano, Northern Nigeria. A total of one thousand and ninety six (1096) isolates were collected. Isolates were subjected to Gram staining, motility test, biochemical characterization and further examined using Microgen TM Gram negative Identification A (Microgen GN ID A) system. Susceptibility of the isolates to some commonly used antibiotics was determined using the disc diffusion method. The result showed that various Enterobacteriaceae isolates confirmed were Pantoae agglomerans 250 (53.53%) being the most occurring followed by Klebsiella spp 160 (34.26%) and then Escherichia coli 57 (12.21%) respectively. The antibiotic resistance pattern of the isolates showed that the highest resistance level was recorded for Ampicillin (78%), followed by Amoxycillin (72%), Ceftazidime (42%). There is also a significant level of resistance to Sulfamethoxazole trimethoprim (36%), Ceftriaxone (28%) and chloramphenicol (24%). Lower resistance levels were observed against Gentamicin (8%) and Ciprofloxacin (10%).

Published: April 2022

The effect of weaning diets formulated locally were assessed on weanling wistar rats and compared with a commercial brand to ascertain its use as weaning diets for infants in resource-poor nations. The raw ingredients were processed using local methods into different diets and fed to weanling rats weighing between 45-60 g. Thirty weanling wistar rats were divided into six groups of five animals each and were allowed access to food and water ad-libitum for 28 days following standard procedures. Results of the antinutritive components of the diets revealed that phytate recorded the least amount of 0.29±0.00 mg/110g while oxalate was highest (18.12±0.07) in diet formulated majorly with plant materials. Organ weights of the experimental animals showed that animals fed the locally formulated diets compared favourably with the commercial diet while the least weights observed in animals fed protein-free diets. The Biochemical and hematological assessment of the serum of experimental animals did not show any marked difference in all the experimental groups. From the result, it can be deduced that the locally formulated diets did not pose any adverse health effect on rats and therefore is safe for use as infant diets.

Frente às diversas tecnologias de tratamento de esgoto disponíveis, o sucesso na escolha da alternativa não está relacionado a um único critério de julgamento. Os custos envolvidos e os requerimentos de qualidade de tratamento são as principais restrições encontradas para definir o arranjo tecnológico. Por isso, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar comparativamente os wetlands construídos (WC) e as tecnologias normatizadas pela ABNT NBR 13969/1997 empregadas no tratamento descentralizado de esgoto. Consideraram-se a eficiência de tratamento e os custos de construção (CAPEX), operação e manutenção (OPEX), aplicáveis ao cenário de 150 habitantes. As tecnologias estudadas foram: filtro anaeróbio (FAN), lodo ativado em batelada (LAB) e três modalidades de WC: de fluxo vertical (WCV), de fluxo horizontal (WCH) e a combinação desses dois, formando um sistema híbrido (SH). Os resultados indicaram que o FAN obteve o menor CAPEX (R$ 80/hab), e o SH, o maior (R$ 630/hab). Já para o OPEX, o WCH apresentou o menor valor (R$ 7,41 hab-1ano-1), enquanto o LAB teve o maior (R$ 118 hab-1ano-1). Em relação ao desempenho de tratamento, LAB, SH e WCV apresentaram as melhores eficiências.

Published: April 2022

O controle de pressão se destaca como uma das principais opções técnicas para aumentar a eficiência energética e hidráulica dos sistemas de distribuição de água (SDA). Esta pesquisa objetivou o desenvolvimento de um sistema de controle inteligente, sob a ação da Lógica Fuzzy, para o controle de pressão em SDA por meio do uso simultâneo de válvulas e inversores de frequência. Para fins de comparação, foram desenvolvidos dois sistemas de controle: descentralizado (cada atuador sendo controlado individualmente) e centralizado. Os controladores foram aplicados em uma bancada experimental que simula um SDA setorizado, composto por duas zonas de pressão. A partir da análise dos resultados, constatou-se que os controladores mantiveram as pressões medidas próximas aos valores preestabelecidos como referência. O Sistema Controle Fuzzy centralizado apresentou melhores resultados que o descentralizado, pois os tempos de assentamento foram menores e a válvula manteve-se estável nos testes.

O lixiviado de aterro sanitário (LAS) é um resíduo com elevada carga de poluentes recalcitrantes, altos níveis de nitrogênio amoniacal, sólidos, metais pesados, fósforo e baixa relação DBO5/DQO. O presente estudo foi desenvolvido em sistemas alimentados em regime de batelada. O lixiviado foi coletado no Aterro Sanitário Metropolitano de João Pessoa (ASMJP-PB) e apresentou concentração média de 2514 mg.L-1 de N-amoniacal. A Cepa de Chlorella sp. foi isolada do lixiviado. O sistema constituiu-se de 7 biorreatores alimentados com lixiviado in natura diluído em água destilada em diferentes percentuais (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 e 100%), tendo Meio Basal de Bolds (MBB) como controle positivo. Cada biorreator foi alimentado com 500mL de substrato e 10 mL de cultivo de Chlorella sp. em fase estacionária, densidade celular de 5,47×104 cel.mL-1, TDH de 336h com amostragens de 50 mL a cada 48h para avaliação do pH, oxigênio dissolvido, turbidez, nitrogênio amoniacal e contagem de células. As análises foram conduzidas em duplicata. A estatística dos dados foi realizada por meio de um planejamento full fatorial de três níveis Box-Behnken 3(2-0) design (BBD) combinado com a metodologia de superfície de resposta e (ANOVA), por meio dos softwares Microsoft Excel 2013, Statistic 8,0 e Minitab 17. Foi registrado crescimento celular em todos os tratamentos, com remoções de N- amoniacal variando entre 6 e 44%, e incrementos celulares variando entre 27 e 178% até 96h de monitoração. Os resultados deste estudo são indicativos de que a Chlorella sp. consegue crescer em lixiviado, podendo ser aplicada na fitorremediação de LAS.

Authors: Abdullahi Shuaibu , Asniza Ishak Nor , Muzirah Musa
Published: April 2022

The abstract should be in Palatino Linotype as the font type, 9 pt., between 150-250 words.  The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the 7E instructional strategy on the achievement and retention of SS II (11th grade) Biology students in public secondary schools in Nigeria. Intact classes of 60 students were randomly selected and denoted as the experimental group, which was taught with the 7E instructional strategy, and the control group, which was taught using the traditional, teacher-centered instruction methods. The data were collected via Biology Achievement in Respiration Test (BART), and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Independent Samples t-test for both variables. The results of the independent-sample t-test for the post-test scores indicated a significant value of p < 0.05 for the achievement variable. Similarly, the statistic indicated a p < 0.05 for students’ retention, when taught by the 7E instructional approach. The implication of these findings suggest that the adoption of the 7E instructional approach enhances students’ achievement in Biology. The findings also imply that students are able to remember what they were taught, after a time lapse, which enhances their chance of passing examinations.  The retention test was administered a month after the post-test.

The main aim of this study is to investigate the opinions of Turkish STEM teachers about the Scientist-Teacher-Student Partnership (STSP). In order to provide extra insights about the STSP, a specifically designed questionnaire developed by Malaysian researchers was used. The study consists of data collected from 301 Turkish STEM teachers who have been working in the schools. As a result of the analysis of the data, it was found out that the teachers have positive opinions about the STSP. Looking at the differences between male and female teachers, it was found that there were significant differences in teachers' scores related to the roles of teachers, students, and scientists in the STSP. According to the teachers' experiences of working with scientists or not, the results showed that teachers who do not have experience of working with scientists have a more positive opinion of this collaboration process. Turkish STEM teachers showed greater appreciation of the value of working with a scientist, especially teachers who did not have working experience with a scientist. The outcomes of this study can be used to implement the STSP as a STEM education model.

Metabolism and Transport of P Nutrient in the Rhizosphere Zone in Acidic Soils
Authors: Sri Ratmini Niluh Putu
Published: April 2022

Acidic soils are characterized by low soil pH and high solubility of iron and aluminum affecting the availability of P to be low. The P concentration in the soil solution around the rhizosphere will be influenced by the presence and metabolism of plant roots. Plants get P in the form of inorganic phosphate anion (Pi) from soil solution.  Exudate will affect the activity of microorganisms in rhizosphere and rhizoplan. This paper aimed to review the factors that affect P metabolism in the rhizosphere region. Some of the factors that influence the P metabolism in the rhizophir region are pH, root exudates, microorganisms, temperature, and humidity. Nutrient transformation in the rhizosphere was very narrow. Several things affecting the P transformation include temperature, humidity regime, oxygen, pH and ion availability, sunlight, and CO2. In the soil deficient in P, the plant roots undergo adaptation through changes in root morphology. The P availability in acid soils can be increased by the integration of plants with phosphate solubilizing bacteria or fungi. It is hoped that an understanding of P metabolism in the rhizosphere can determine a more efficient P management effort.
