Nanoscale Mapping of Non-Uniform Heterogeneous Nucleation Kinetics Mediated by Surface Chemistry
Authors: Wang Mei , Dissanayake Thilini Umesha , Park Chiwoo , Gaskell Karen J. , Woehl Taylor
Published: July 2019

Nucleation underlies the formation of many liquid-phase synthetic and natural materials with applications in materials chemistry, geochemistry, biophysics, and structural biology. Most liquid-phase nucleation processes are heterogeneous, occurring at specific nucleation sites at a solid-liquid interface; however, the chemical and topographical identity of these nucleation sites and how nucleation kinetics vary from site-to-site remains mysterious. Here we utilize in situ liquid cell electron microscopy to unveil counterintuitive nanoscale non-uniformities in heterogeneous nucleation kinetics on a macroscopically uniform solid-liquid interface. Time-resolved in situ electron microscopy imaging of silver nanoparticle nucleation at a water-silicon nitride interface showed apparently randomly-located nucleation events at the interface. However, nanometric maps of local nucleation kinetics uncovered nanoscale interfacial domains with either slow or rapid nucleation. Interestingly, the interfacial domains vanished at high supersaturation ratio, giving way to rapid spatially uniform nucleation kinetics. Atomic force microscopy and nanoparticle labeling experiments revealed a topographically flat, chemically heterogeneous interface with nanoscale interfacial domains of functional groups similar in size to those observed in the nanometric nucleation maps. These results, along with a semi-quantitative nucleation model, indicate that a chemically non-uniform interface presenting different free energy barriers to heterogeneous nucleation underlies our observations of non-uniform nucleation kinetics. Overall, our results introduce a new imaging modality, nanometric nucleation mapping, and provide important new insights into the impact of surface chemistry on microscopic spatial variations in heterogeneous nucleation kinetics that have not been previously observed.
High-Resolution Photoelectron Spectroscopy of the Pyridinide Isomers
Authors: DeVine Jessalyn , Babin Mark , Blackford Katherine , Neumark Daniel
Published: July 2019

Isomer-specific, high-resolution photoelectron spectra of cryogenically-cooled pyridinide anions obtained using slow photoelectron velocity-map imaging are presented. New vibrational structure in the detachment spectrum of para-pyridinide is resolved, and the spectra of meta- and ortho-pyridinide are reported for the first time. These spectra yield electron affinities of 1.4797(5), 1.4473(5), and 0.8669(7) eV for the para-, meta- and ortho-pyridyl radicals, respectively, as well as a number of vibrational frequencies for each neutral isomer. While most of the resolved structure in all three spectra is readily assigned by comparison to B3LYP/6-311+G* Franck-Condon simulations, the para-pyridinide spectrum shows newly-resolved fine structure attributed to anharmonic coupling within the vibrational manifold of the corresponding neutral radical. Isomeric trends in the photoelectron angular distributions are rationalized by approximating the detached anion orbitals as superpositions of s, p, and d-like hydrogenic orbitals, based on an application of Sanov’s generalized mixing model [J. Chem. Phys. 141, 124312 (2014)]. The presented experimental and theoretical results are used to address the relative energies of the anion and neutral isomers, as well as the site-specific bond dissociation energies of pyridine.
A Fuel-Driven Chemical Reaction Network Based on Conjugate Addition and Elimination Chemistry
Authors: fan bowen , men yongjun , van Rossum Susan , Li Guotai , Eelkema Rienk
Published: July 2019

Here, we propose a new chemical reaction network for fuel-driven transient formation of covalent bonds, based on redox-controlled conjugate addition and elimination chemistry. By investigating the separate reactions making up the cycle, we find that the bond formation, breaking and regeneration processes can be realized. At present, substantial side reactivity prevents achieving repeated operation of a full cycle in a single system. If such obstacles would be overcome, this chemical reaction network could be a valuable addition to the toolbox for out-of-equilibrium systems chemistry.
XIAP controls RIPK2 signaling by preventing its deposition in speck-like structures
Authors: Ellwanger Kornelia , Briese Selina , Arnold Christine , Kienes Ioannis , Heim Valentin , Nachbur Ueli , Kufer Thomas A
Published: July 2019

The receptor interacting serine/threonine kinase 2 (RIPK2) is essential for linking activation of the pattern recognition receptors NOD1 and NOD2 to cellular signaling events. Recently, it was shown that RIPK2 can form higher order molecular structures in vitro. Here, we demonstrate that RIPK2 forms detergent insoluble complexes in the cytosol of host cells upon infection with invasive enteropathogenic bacteria. Formation of these structures occurred after NF-κB activation and depended on the caspase activation and recruitment domain of NOD1 or NOD2. Complex formation upon activation required RIPK2 autophosphorylation at Y474 and was influenced by phosphorylation at S176. We found that the E3 ligase X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) counteracts complex formation of RIPK2, accordingly mutation of the XIAP ubiquitylation sites in RIPK2 enhanced complex formation. Taken together, our work reveals novel roles of XIAP in the regulation of RIPK2 and expands our knowledge on the function of RIPK2 posttranslational modifications in NOD1/2 signaling.

Os moderninhos do sertão: A traição da tradição e o culto à modernidade
Authors: Machado Silva Bruno Goulart
Published: July 2019

O presente trabalho discute a ideologia da sociedade moderna e como os países de terceiro mundo adotaram esses modelos ideológicos nos seus projetos nacionais. Esses modelos criam pedagogias que geram fronteiras internas e montam diferentes estratégias de performances na sociedade nacional. O caso brasileiro, com suas narrativas dualistas, montou uma ideologia híbrida, que se polariza em narrativas expressas em binaridades, como: moderno-tradicional, desenvolvido- subdesenvolvido, sertão-litoral, essa última oposição ó o foco apresentado aqui. O pensamento social no Brasil sempre representou o sertão como uma região concreta: Nordeste, Centro-oeste, Norte de Minas Gerais e partes do Sudeste foram ditos e vistos como sertão. É o caso também do estado de Goiás que desde as bandeiras foi representado como lugar vazio, fronteira a ser ocupada e civilizada, local de formas arcaicas de poder político, marcado por relações personalistas. Mas o sertão é uma região imaginada, não cartografada e construída discursivamente, de modo que as representações sobre o sertão são variadas. Contemporaneamente, em Goiás, as representações de modernidade querem deslocar o sertão para “mais além”. Através de um trabalho empírico com universitários goianos, pretende-se discutir as representações do moderno e do tradicional e como estas instâncias estão imbricadas.
As fronteiras da liberdade: A resistência quilombola na fronteira entre Brasil e Guianas (Século XIX)
Authors: Martins Cristian Farias
Published: July 2019

Neste trabalho de revisão da bibliografia etno-histórica acerca dos escravos fugidos que viveram no Grão-Pará, - especialmente no Baixo rio Amazonas, entre os séculos XVIII e XIX-, verifico que esses atores históricos construíram espaços de relativa autonomia e liberdade a partir da criação de redes de comércio, comunicação e cooperação, aliança e solidariedade, com taberneiros, regatões, acoitadores de escravos, tropas policiais, e outros segmentos da sociedade escravocrata. Uma rede de relações que, por vezes, atravessava as fronteiras estabelecidas entre os Estados-nacionais e que se aproveitava dos litígios territoriais entre as nações para implementar os projetos de emancipação quilombola. Essa região, marginal à nação brasileira, era um espaço de resistência no qual os grupos quilombolas percebiam, com suas próprias lógicas de pensamento, as complexidades, as contradições, os avanços e os recuos das várias políticas coloniais ali implementadas, agindo a partir das suas próprias percepções. Além disso, a partir desses dados, percebemos a necessidade de pensar a nação brasileira enquanto espaço social imaginado, heterogêneo, de múltiplos centros/periferias e fronteiras sociais.
Questões sobre a política do "Vivir Bien" na Amazônia indígena
Authors: Sarmiento Barletti Juan Pablo
Published: July 2019

Este ensaio propõe uma solução para o dilema imposto aos povos indígenas quando estes participam da política moderna. Por um lado, as organizações políticas indígenas são criticadas pelo uso de conceitos euro-americanos nas intervenções que realizam especificamente para expor suas demandas políticas. Por outro lado, questiona-se a credibilidade desses mesmos grupos quando suas representações não correspondem às ideias de indianidade dos Estados e das ONG’s. Tendo como base pesquisas etnográficas realizadas entre grupos ashaninka, a sociedade amazônica de maior população, o autor convida para uma análise que olhe para além da política refratada nos discursos indigenistas propostos pelos Estados e pelas ONG’s, e que dê conta de analisar as práticas políticas que são invisíveis a essas críticas: as práticas cotidianas do kametsa asaiki (‘viver bem’), centrais para o processo de criação dos seres humanos ashaninka. O autor conclui que, mesmo que a natureza política do kametsa asaiki seja invisível para o Estado e para as ONG’s, ela ainda tem efeitos importantes que, esses sim, são visíveis.
Planos de vida e manejo do mundo: Cosmopolítica indígena do desenvolvimento na Amazônia colombiana
Authors: Cayón Luis
Published: July 2019

No contexto das reformas produzidas na Colômbia pela Constituição de 1991, principalmente com relação ao processo de formulação de Planos de Vida, este artigo descreve e analisa o uso cosmopolítico que a Associação de Capitães Indígenas do Rio Pirá-paraná (ACAIPI) –Amazônia colombiana– tem dado ao seu conceito de “calendário ecológico”. Por um lado, este conceito local é usado para reivindicar e negociar a forma de vida indígena frente aos atores do Estado e, por outro, é usado de maneira distinta nas articulações políticas com organizações indígenas brasileiras, visando retroalimentar experiências diferentes e buscar pontos em comum para consolidar o manejo autônomo dos seus territórios.
A defesa simbólica e política do território indígena: Cuetzalan, Puebla (México)
Authors: Beaucage Pierre
Published: July 2019

Este artigo, baseado em uma pesquisa participativa de longo prazo, quer mostrar como a defesa do território pelos Nahua de Cuetzalan não se limita a enfrentamentos. Eles se manifestam através de séculos de apropriação material, política e simbólica do seu território. Às grandes transformações que lhes foram impostas – como a conquista espanhola, a desamortização do común de naturales e a chegada de comerciantes e agricultores mestiços – responderam preservando e adaptando a sua agricultura camponesa. Politicamente, combinaram a luta jurídica pacífica e a ação direta. Simbolicamente, carregaram de significado cada parcela de seu território através de uma rica toponímia, intimamente conectada à sua memória coletiva. Nossa abordagem etno-histórica permite compreender a construção de construção de identidade indígena e o ecossistema cuetzaltecos, construção que ajudou sua organização para o controle da produção, nas décadas anteriores. Também compreender a mobilização atual contra os megaprojetos turísticos, minerários e hidroelétricos na região.

Published: July 2019

The purpose of this research is to understand and explain the discourse and practice of commodifying the usada Bali and negotiating the balian atmosphere in relation to economic interests. The method used is critical ethnography with qualitative analysis. This study found that the practice of commodifying usada Bali by balian was done by manipulating cultural capital, symbolic capital, and economic capital in the domains and dynamics of the habitus of usada Bali treatment to achieve economic goals. In medical practice, the balian people conduct negotiations in the gymnasium as a professional code of ethics in the midst of increasingly tighter competition in medical services. The findings of this study reflect the occurrence of mutual transformation in the practice of Balinese usada medicine due to the hegemony of modernity.
El enfoque sistémico en el institucionalismo histórico
Authors: Hernandez Cortez Noé
Published: July 2019

Una de las corrientes representativas en la ciencia política contemporánea es el institucionalismo histórico. En el presente artículo se parte de la premisa de que actualmente predominan dos paradigmas epistemológicos en la ciencia política: el paradigma de la mecánica clásica y el enfoque sistémico. Se argumenta que el institucionalismo histórico se apoya en la idea de causalidad del paradigma de la mecánica clásica, pero lo ha enriquecido al introducir el enfoque sistémico en el estudio de los procesos políticos. Se concluye que las categorías analíticas como estrategias, trayectorias y coyunturas, propias del institucionalismo histórico, se explican como producto de una visión sistémica del mundo de la política
Activismo pragmático: animalismo y políticas públicas
Authors: Salazar Milton Andrés
Published: July 2019

El presente artículo presenta un caso de incidencia en políticas públicas de un colectivo animalista (Identidad Animal, Manizales - Colombia) que, al mezclar estrategias micro y macropolíticas y agenciar un animalismo pragmático (integrando tácticas bienestaristas y abolicionistas), propone soluciones puntuales a problemas de maltrato y crueldad animal. Se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas a integrantes del colectivo y revisiones documentales sobre legislación animal y producción de conocimiento, tanto de académicos como de los colectivos animalistas. Se concluye que cuando los colectivos sociales apelan al pragmatismo privilegiando resultados sobre narrativas lúcidas y encasillamientos militantes, logran desarrollar una lectura política del contexto que los hace tener un mayor impacto sobre los hechos de injusticia que quieren transformar.

La natura e gli stati abituali nell’Etica Nicomachea
Authors: Farina Flavia
Published: July 2019

According to Aristotle, virtue does not arise in us neither by nature nor contrary to nature. ‘Virtue naturalism’, as the possibility to ‘reduce’ virtue and virtues of character to physical or physiological entities and relations, seems consequently impossible. Nature and virtue differ mostly in respect of their relation with contraries.
A moral agent can become either virtuous or vicious, while a stone can only move downwards. However moral habits, once acquired by the agent, seem to come close to nature’s uni-directionality.
Onnipotenza divina e ordine naturale nel Medioevo
Authors: Possamai Andrea
Published: July 2019

The present essay aims, on the one hand, to recall the reasons of anti-naturalism, intended in a metaphysical perspective, of a large part of medieval philosophical and theological reflection and, on the other hand, to show how the same type of problems, specifically those concerning the possible mutability or immutability of the past, can be employed in favour of various conflicting positions on the matter. To demonstrate this, reference was made to some thinkers who could represent emblematic positions on the theme, in particular: Pliny the Elder for the ancient world, Augustine of Hippo, Peter Damian, Bonaventure and Thomas Aquinas for the medieval era.
The Investigation of Metaphoric Perceptions of Teacher Candidates Regarding Democracy

Published: July 2019

In this study it is aimed to
investigate the perceptions of the teacher candidates regarding democracy.
Within this research phenomenology pattern, which is one of the qualitative
research patterns, was used. The study group of the research consists of 222
teacher candidates who attend Elementary Education, Mathematics Education,
Science Education, Social Studies Education and Preschool Education, determined
with criterion sampling method among junior and senior teacher candidates. The
quantitative data was analysed with content analysis method. The metaphors
regarding democracy were categorized “democracy as vital needs”, “democracy as
material”, “democracy as nutritional source”, “democracy as the symbol of
freedom”, “democracy as abstract thinking”, “democracy as balance”, and
“democracy as negativity” considering the connection that the teacher
candidates related with democracy. Teacher candidates, who participated in the
research, from different departments explained democracy with metaphors
regarding equality, respect, life source and freedom concepts.  It is seen that the teacher candidates did not
focus on especially cooperation and responsibility concepts. Also as a result of the
research it is determined that more than half of the teacher candidates did not
participate in a democratic activity in lessons at school all of their student-
life.

Authors: Fletcher Jason
Published: July 2019

This paper uses data covering birth cohorts between 1900-1950 in the US to examine correlations in schooling between fathers and sons across time and place of birth. Using CPS data with special modules that capture parental education, findings suggest gradual increases in educational mobility across the first five decades of the 20th century. There is also geographic (regional) variation that is both large and persistent, with areas of the South showing educational transmission rates that are twice as high as areas in the Northeast.
Socio-economic impact of microfinance in Nepal
Authors: Paudel Narayan Prasad
Published: July 2019

The microfinance institutions (MFIs) in Nepal are constrained in capacity of key technical areas essential to rural finance operations such as accounting, auditing, strategic planning, financial analysis, and portfolio management. This lack significantly limits their potential to expand their client base and outreach to poor households. The number of MFIs with private sector's participation is expanding significantly. The overall impression of microfinance performance indicates that the microfinance clients, the loan portfolio outstanding, and savings are in increasing trend. Despite these efforts, the level of poverty remains unchanged across the rural households. As a measure of effect of microfinance, with the rise in membership duration, cooking fuel status of the clients is yet to be improved. The current monthly income of control group households is in declining trend at present. The rate of increase in monthly income of experimental group is quite high for the majority of the respondents. The household food sufficiency from household production is more pronounced in experimental group than in the control group. The contribution of other incomes in determining the total income of households is more significant in comparison to agricultural and farm related income raise through the microcredit facilities. The status of female child enrollment in private school has significantly increased irrespective of the level of earning of households.
Building Rural Household Resilience Due to Environmental Changes in the Hadejia-Nguru Wetlands, Northeastern Nigeria
Authors: Galtima M. , Tafida A.A.
Published: July 2019

Environmental changes in the Hadejia-Nguru wetlands have grossly affected the functionality of the ecosystem with multiplier effects on livelihoods of more than 1.5 million people. The most critical change occurred through the invasion of the water bodies by Typha grass, which has hampered the predominant activities, fishing and farming, thereby subjecting the people into abject poverty conditions. This has attracted the attention of Nigerian Government, International Development Agencies and Non-Government Organizations in designing and implementing several intervention measures. In many communities, the failure of the interventions in up-lifting the quality of life has been attributed to the wetlands resource utilization strategies prescribed. This study uses the concept of sustainable livelihood framework by focusing on the occurrence of Typha grass (external vulnerability factor), capital assets and policy/institutional structures to construct alternative livelihood strategy model in order to develop household resilience against environmental changes. Data for the study was obtained from household surveys in fifteen communities of the wetlands region and analyzed using descriptive statistics, multiple regression and Foster Greer Thorbeke models. The results indicate that a combination of five capital assets: physical (power, road and markets); human (experience, skills and schooling), social (cooperative, remittance and linkages), natural (land, forest and fisheries); and financial (savings, disposables, credit) resources serve as the optimum factors in yielding higher incomes and thus developing a resilience against environmental vulnerability and poverty.
Fiscal Decentralization and Municipal Performance in Nepal
Authors: Khanal Gopi
Published: July 2019

The literature on decentralization is inconsistent to explain the effectiveness of fiscal decentralization on local governance. Based on the descriptive data on revenue and expenditure decentralization from 51 Nepali municipalities, this study found empirically significant positive relationship between revenue decentralization and municipal performance. However, regression results showed an insignificant association between fiscal transfer and municipal overall performance. The study suggests that devolving power to tax is associated with better municipal performance than downloading expenditure responsibilities to municipalities through fiscal transfers.

Introduction: Pott’s spine is a destructive form of tuberculosis and accounts for approximately half of all cases of musculoskeletal tuberculosis. Spinal Tuberculosis is most often missed due to inadequate sample and lack of clinical history. Most of the Extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB) can be diagnosed by Ziehl Nelson stain (ZN) only, when clinically suspected samples are adequate and optimally stained. We are reporting four case series of spinal tuberculosis diagnosed by ZN stain and confirmed by Bactec MGIT Culture.

Material & Methods: These four clinically suspected spinal biopsis were received for ZN stain and MTB culture by MGIT.

Results: All the four spinal biopsies were found positive by ZN stain as well as by BacTec MGIT.All the four cases were HIV negative. ESR and CRP of all four cases were raised.

Discussion & Conclusion: Spinal tuberculosis can be easily diagnosed by ZN stain in resource constraint lab. Despite its common occurrence and the high frequency of long-term morbidity, there are no straight forward guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of spinal tuberculosis. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment is necessary to prevent permanent neurological disability and to minimize spinal deformity.
Growing up with a brother diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder

The relationship between siblings is often the longest lasting relationship within an individual’s life (Cicirelli, 1995). This relationship is especially important for individuals with developmental difficulties, since their siblings are usually those who undertake the role of caregivers, after the parents are no longer available to do so. However, recent research suggests that establishing a close relationship with a sibling diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be considerably more challenging compared to siblings with other developmental difficulties (Tomeny et.al., 2017). Although the siblings of individuals diagnosed with ASD have received a certain amount of attention in the last decade worldwide, this area is still under-researched in Croatia, and is insufficiently addressed in interventions aimed at helping families with children diagnosed with ASD. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of siblings living with a brother with ASD and their perceptions of the received and needed support. Six semi-structured interviews with adult siblings of individuals with ASD were conducted and analysed using thematic analysis. Generally, most of the interviewed individuals show a relatively high level of acceptance and affection towards their brother and feel that they have adapted to the brother’s condition. Although they mentioned some positive experiences and outcomes, they reported on many difficult aspects of growing up with their brother on the autism spectrum. None of them received any professional support during their growing up, and their opinions about the potential usefulness of programs targeted at siblings are divided.

Cilj je rada opisati konstrukcijske i psihometrijske karakteristike upitnika "Suočavanje s negativnim ponašanjima na radnom mjestu" na uzorku policijskih službenika i službenica te utvrditi je li upitnik prikladan za korištenje u daljnjim istraživanjima. U istraživanju je korištena modificirana verzija upitnika Coping with bullying (Lee i Brotheridge, 2006). Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku 209 policijskih službenika i službenica Policijske uprave splitsko-dalmatinske. U obradi podataka korištene su statističke analize deskriptivne statistike, faktorske analize i Spearmanov koeficijent korelacije. Rezultati su pokazali da policijski službenici pri suočavanju s negativnim ponašanjima na radnom mjestu najčešće koriste strategiju usmjerenost na smirivanje situacije i izbjegavanja problema (M = 2,43, SD = 0,88), zatim slijedi usmjerenost na aktivno rješavanje problema (M = 1,61, SD = 0,72) te usmjerenost na vlastite emocije i ublažavanje simptoma stresa (M = 1,56, SD = 0,63). Utvrđena je trofaktorska struktura upitnika, a pouzdanost ekstrahiranih subskala pokazala se zadovoljavajućom: (1) usmjerenost na vlastite emocije i olakšavanje simptoma stresa (sastoji se od 10 čestica, Cronbachov alfa = 0,83); (2) usmjerenost na smirivanje situacije i izbjegavanje problema (sastoji se od 8 čestica, Cronbachov alfa = 0,84); (3) usmjerenost na aktivno rješavanje problema (sastoji se od 5 čestica, Cronbachov alfa = 0,72). Rezultati su pokazali da je predložena verzija upitnika pouzdan instrument koji se može koristiti u daljnjim istraživanjima načina suočavanja s negativnim ponašanjima u okviru policijske profesije, ali i šire, čime se potiče daljnja primjena i razvoj upitnika.

Tijekom posljednjih desetak godina u svijetu se intenzivno kreiraju, provode i istražuju programi namijenjeni adolescentima, temeljeni na tehnikama usredotočene svjesnosti (mindfulness), te studije ukazuju na njihov potencijal u prevenciji raznih problema u ponašanju i promociji mentalnog zdravlja. U svrhu boljeg razumijevanja mehanizma njihova djelovanja pojavio se interes za istraživanja koja istražuju odnos dispozicijske usredotočene svjesnosti i emocionalne inteligencije kod pojedinca. Ciljevi istraživanja prikazanog u ovom radu bili su ispitati povezanost različitih dimenzija usredotočene svjesnosti (opažanje, opisivanje, svjesno postupanje, neprosuđivanje i nereaktivnost) i emocionalne kompetentnosti te istražiti relativan doprinos pojedinih dimenzija u objašnjenju emocionalne kompetentnosti kod adolescenata. Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 220 učenika (65.9% muškog spola) srednjih škola Grada Zagreba, prosječne životne dobi od 16 godina. U svrhu ostvarivanja ciljeva istraživanja primijenjen je Petofacetni upitnik usredotočene svjesnosti (Baer i sur., 2006) te Upitnik emocionalne kompetentnosti UEK-15 (Takšić, 1998). Provedene analize ukazale su na prisutnost značajnih korelacija između pojedinih dimenzija usredotočene svjesnosti (opisivanje, nereaktivnost, svjesno postupanje i opažanje) te emocionalne kompetentnosti kod adolescenata. Provedena hijerarhijska regresijska analiza pokazala je kako pojedine dimenzije usredotočene svjesnosti (opisivanje, svjesno postupanje i opažanje) imaju značajan doprinos u objašnjenju emocionalne kompetentnosti kod adolescenata. Rezultati ovog istraživanja mogu pridonijeti kvaliteti kreiranja programa razvoja emocionalnih kompetencija kod adolescenata.

Drying is the most important step to keep the compound stability in simplicia and is very influential to produce good quality igredients in the antioxidant activity contained in the simplicia. Antioxidants are oxidation-free inhibitors of free radical reactions. Parijoto is one of the plants that have antioxidant compounds.This study aims to determine the effect of drying, concentration of antioxidant activity of parijoto (Medinilla speciosa Blume) fruit. The drying method used is direct sunlight drying, indirect sunlight and oven. The antioxidant activity of ethanol extract on drying method was determined by 2,2 diphenyl-1-picrylhidrazyl (DPPH) method which is free radical. The qualitative test DPPH showed that the higher levels of ethanol extract from the three drying methods further diminished the color of DPPH solution in ethanol.The result showed thet the drying method gave different effect to the antioxidant activity of parijoto fruit which is significant(p0,05). Drying methods wich have high antioxidant activity are given by drying using oven method with an IC50 value 33,75µg/ml.
