Where L-leucin (C6H13NO2)symbolized as( Leu H) as a primary ligand and

8-hydroxyqinoline,(C9H7NO) symbolized as (8-HQ) as  a secondary ligand .

   The ligands and the metal chlorides were brought in to reaction at room temperature in ethanol as solvent. The reaction required the following molar ratio [(1:1:2)(metal): Q-:2Leu-] with M(III ) ions, were 

M(III) = Fe (III ),Cr (III) La(III)) and  Ru(III )

  The reaction gave solid crystalline complexes which have been characterized us the following techniques: Thermal stability, Solubility, Molar conductivity, Determination the percentage of the metal in the complexes by (AAS). Spectroscopic Methods [FT-IR and UV-Vis], and. The proposed structure of the complexes using program, chem. office 3D(2006) .], Biological effects for some complexes were investigated .

Numerous papers have been published on metal complexation of amino acids and derivatives during the past ten years. Metal amino acid complexes have long been of interest as models for metal –Ligand systems and interaction which may occur in nature(1)Biological importance of several amino acids their complexes with transition metals is well documented(2-3)The amino acid L- leucin  and various transition metals are important in the biological functions of humans, animals, and plants. L- leucine is one of the twenty major amino acids and is considered an essential amino acid (4)

     8-hydroxyqinoline or 8-qinolineis an organic compound with the formula C9H7NO2 is the name most commonly used ,while its trivial name is (oxine),which is conventionally used for the description of chelate compounds  Oxinates ,as out of seven possible hydroxyqinoles, only 8-hydroxyqinoline forms chelate with metal ions . [5-6]

Ruthenium polypyridyl and phenanthroline complexes have been extensively investigated because of their interesting photochemical[7],catalytic [8], biological [9] and electrochemical [10,11] properties.

Lanthanide(III) carboxylates have been widely studied in recent years due to their physico-chemical properties, variety of structural types and potential uses as fluorescent sensors. The isomers of mono-,di- and trimethoxybenzoates of rare earth elements(III) have been examined. [12-13]

Authors: Abdullateef Raji Akintunde , Abdullahi Hajarat Jummai
Published: October 2023

Adimenu is a local herbal mixture made from extracts of selected plants for medicinal purpose. Users of the herb become dizzy after use; there are cases of sudden collapse and hospitalization; headaches, and stomach disorder have been reported. The current study investigates toxicity evaluation of Adimenu using Allium cepa L. chromosomal assay. The herbal mixture was made into different concentrations- 1 to 100%, while distilled water served as the control. Allium cepa bulbs of average sizes were placed on equal volumes of the varying concentrations in beakers prepared for rooting. The following parameters were evaluated- number of roots, length of roots, root Growth Inhibition (%), mitotic Index and cytogenetic analysis. For the cytogenetic study the roots from each bulb were plucked and fixed for 24 hours, then hydrolyzed in 1N HCl at 60OC for 1minute. The root tip was excised using scalpel and placed in orcein stain on glass slide, it was squashed and then covered with cover slip and pressed; the cells were scored under a light microscope for chromosomal aberrations. Results revealed the first experimental set-up, which involved 20 to 100% concentration of Adimenu had no root emergence. The repeated experiment using lower concentrations showed root outgrowths with 2.0 to 8.0%; the length of roots was inversely proportional to the herbal mixture concentrations. The root growth inhibition (RGI) revealed the higher the concentrations, the higher the % inhibition on root outgrowth and the lengths. The mitotic index (MI) reduces as the herbal concentrations increase. The cytogenetic analysis showed two main mitotic defects, namely: (i) Anaphase chromosome bridge and (ii) Cytokinesis defects. The herbal mixture, Adimenu, induced degeneration of the protein regulator of cytokinesis (PRC) which is vital for cytokinesis and normal cell cleavage and thereby caused defects in cytokinesis. The cytokinesis defect is responsible for initiating and promoting chromosomal .......

Published: October 2023

Context: The covid-19 pandemic has shaken the world in a deadliest way and also disrupted the food system. In Ivory Coast, malnutrition already exists, so it was important to assess the impact of this pandemic on the nutritional status of schoolchildren after this crisis. Thus this study is carried out to evaluate the relationship of sociodemographic characteristics on the nutritional status of schoolchildren. Methods: A cross-sectional study took place from September 2021 to January 2022, with 1,374 schoolchildren aged 5 to 15 years in the commune of Abobo. Sociodemographic characteristics as well as anthropometric parameters were obtained using a questionnaire administered to schoolchildren. Characteristics such as gender, age, profession as well as the level of education of parents and practice of sporting activity were provided. Anthropometry was measured and thinness, overweight and obesity were defined using a standard protocol. Result: The nutritional status of schoolchildren indicates that 15.3% of schoolchildren in the commune of Abobo suffer from thinness and 3.4% are overweight/obese according to the BMI-age indicator. The nutritional status of children according to gender indicates that 17.2% of boys are thin compared to 13.4% of girls. As for overweight/obesity, it is 4.4% among girls and 2.4% among boys. This difference between the nutritional status of schoolchildren and gender is significant (p˂0.05). The level of education of the children's father and the level of education of the schoolchildren are significantly linked to the nutritional status of the schoolchildren. On the other hand, the age of schoolchildren, the level of education of the mother, as well as the practice of sporting activity are not linked to malnutrition. Conclusion: The present study shows that the BMI of schoolchildren is influenced by socio-demographic characteristics such as age, the educational level of the father and that of the schoolchildren as well as the sex ..
Terms around Female Same-Sex Sexual Relationships: Resource for Social Behavior Change Communication Interventions Targeting Women Who Have Sex with Women in Tanzania
Authors: Kamazima Switbert R.
Published: October 2023

Social behavioral change communication interventions in Tanzania target populations engaging in high- risk sex behaviors and practices: anal intercourse, sex work, injecting drugs and male same sex relationships excluding women who have sex with women (WSW) or women who identify lesbians. In this paper, I describe terms used in reference to female same-sex sex or sexual relationships, important in health social behavior change communication targeting WSW in Tanzania. Data presented are part of cross-sectional descriptive and retrospective formative study among WSW conducted in Dar-es-Salaam region, Tanzania in 2021. WSW aged 18 and above, stayed in Dar-es-Salaam for six months or more; had had sexual contact with a woman in the past year participated in this study. Participants were recruited via snowball method. Community leaders/members and managers of NGOs/institution supporting WSW were purposively selected to take part in this study. Researchers used four methods to generated data needed for this study: focus group discussion, in-depth interviewing, observation and collecting WSW’s life stories. Content data analysis was conducted to create categories of terms around female same-sex sex or sexual relationships reported by study participants. Four categories of terms around female same-sex sex or sexual relationships emerged: terms referring to women who identify WSW or lesbians; terminologies referring to female same-sex sex; terms referring to female same-sex-related behaviors and practices; and terminologies referring to items/materials used during female same-sex sex. I conclude WSW in Dar-es-Salaam have coined terms that express their socially- created world. I recommend social behavior change communication programmers in the health education and promotion context to use these terms in developing comprehensive and WSW-friendly research protocols for sustainable behavior change among WSW and the public towards making female same-sex sex safe for reduced ....

Published: October 2023

Objective: Traditional practices for infants vary across communities and may sometimes pose risks to infant health. Healthcare professionals must be aware of these practices during infant- child visits. This study aims to investigate the traditional practices of Turkish and Lebanese mothers on infants, explore the relationship between these practices and compare the similarities and differences between the two cultures. 
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional survey involving Turkish and Lebanese mothers living in Istanbul. Data was collected through face-to-face interviews using a questionnaire inquiring about sociodemographic information about the family, general information about the baby, and traditional practices performed by the mothers. Statistically, Pearson's chi-square test, Fisher's Exact test, and independent t-test were applied.
Results: The study included 382 mothers, comprising 200 who were Turkish and 182 who were Lebanese. In both groups, the proportion of mothers who received information about infant care was approximately 90%.  The most common source of information was the internet in both groups, 35% (63) of Turkish and 53.2% (92) of Lebanese mothers used the internet as a source of information. The second source of data used for baby care were the family elders in the Lebanese mothers (28%), and the health personnel in the Turkish mothers (24%). Turkish mothers practised celebrating the fortieth day, salting, using amber necklaces for teething, and giving pacifiers more frequently than Lebanese mothers. In the case of jaundice, Turkish mothers frequently breastfeed, while Lebanese mothers consult a doctor. The use of potentially risky practices is rare in both groups. No significant relationship was found between maternal education levels and the use of traditional practices.
Conclusion: This study highlights the widespread use of traditional practices among both Turkish and Lebanese mothers during child-rearing. The study's results could inform health strategies to reduce the prevalence of potentially risky traditional practices among mothers and promote adopting safe, evidence-based child-rearing practices.
Macroanatomical investigation of sciatic nerve in rat and quail as a model for experimental medical studies: A comparative study of anatomy
Authors: Boduç Erengül , Allahverdi Ertuğrul
Published: October 2023

Objective: Sciatic nerve studies are still up-to-date from past to present. In recent years, rats and animals other than rats have been used for drugs to be developed to treat the sciatic nerve. This study aims to reveal the comparative anatomy of human, rat and quail and shed light on the experimental studies planned to be done.
Material and Methods: 25 rats (Wistar Albino) and Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) in 10% formalin fixation were dissected for the sciatic nerve. In addition, to show the course of the sciatic nerve in humans, the sciatic nerve was dissected in a male cadaver.
Results: In rat, the nerve length between the right and left sides is more significant than the nerve thickness between the right and left sides (p=0.025). A significant difference was found in the correlation graph between the sciatic nerve thickness on the right side and the sciatic nerve thickness on the left side in rats (p=0.006) and quails (p=0.008).
Conclusion: Comparative anatomy studies are very valuable for the literature. In particular, the study of a topic such as the sciatic nerve, which is on the agenda, in various experimental animals brings the importance of examining these animals morphometrically. Anatomy of the experimental animals to be studied should also be well known in order to achieve the optimal correct data in the results of correct operation and drug administration.

Ukraine is trying with all its might not to sink under the weight of the war. In the event of hostilities, the construction industry, like other sectors of the economy, found itself in a difficult situation, on the verge of collapse. Nevertheless, the Ukrainians could not be defeated, and most of the Developers resumed construction on the spot. The article is devoted to the topic of ensuring the economic security of Customers and Contractors of the construction industry of Ukraine while eliminating the consequences of armed aggression, which reveals the global problem of restoring the wartime housing stock. The article presents the mechanism of movement of financial flows, which should also be taken into account during the post-war recovery. Previously existing methods were analyzed. Examples of current documents regarding the determination of issues of economic security of construction enterprises are given, in which various methods and tasks are applied. An approach for improving methodical support for economic security monitoring is proposed. Economic security in Ukraine is one of the most prioritized functional areas of security. This is the state of protection of the country's national economy from external and internal threats, which ensures the country's economic sovereignty, the unity of its economic space, and the conditions for the implementation of Ukraine's strategic national priorities. The construction sector occupies one of the leading places in the country's economy. It is a multifaceted and multifunctional structure. Any changes that occur in any of the interrelated sectors of the economy lead to a reaction from the market, which undoubtedly affects the construction sector. One of the main features of the modern industrial and construction sector is the ability to work in the face of threats to economic security. One of the main tasks facing the economy of Ukraine and requiring serious consideration is the implementation of measures aimed at stabilizing the work of construction enterprises, including design enterprises. A competently built system of ensuring economic security with the use of existing or built corporate resources is able to create the necessary conditions for achieving business goals and maximizing profits.

Tourism was one of the means of diversifying out of a Caribbean sugar industry that was beset with difficulties after emancipation in the 1830s. This situation was made even more difficult by the fact that tourism is in itself a complex and invasive phenomenon which does not require a history of colonialism and racism to provoke strong reactions in a society. Holder takes case studies from those islands where Caribbean tourism first blossomed – Barbados, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Jamaica and Cuba – to demonstrate the post-emancipation complexities and the measures taken to address them. He details the history of various regional entities and the roles they played in the development of the Caribbean tourism industry and goes on to analyse Caribbean tourism performance in the second decade of the twenty-first century against the background of the state of the world economy, the forecast for global tourism andair transportation performance and the prospects of current major and potential markets of the emerging economies of the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) and other countries. In outlining a sustainable strategic plan for the industry, which pays special attention to the current needs in the areas of product development and the exploration of new niche markets, especially sport, culture and heritage, Holder expresses continuing confidence in the tourism sector. In spite of current challenges, the tourist industry is resilient and the Caribbean’s best hope for continued development, provided the region works together and plays to its strengths.

This study is carried out to investigate the link between capital structure and company value from the perspective of agency and trade-off theory. This model formulates that the use of debt can increase profitability through monitoring mechanisms and disciplining by creditors. Profitability can reduce and increase financial distress and company value. The sample consists of companies in the LQ45 index for the period 2017-2020 and model testing uses path analysis. The results show that (i) there is a positive influence of capital structure on profitability, (ii) profitability significantly increases company value (iii) profitability affects the decrease in financial distress (iv) Financial distress significantly increases company value, (v) profitability and financial distress do not mediate capital structure on company value, (v) profitability mediates the influence of capital structure on company value (vi). These results have important implications, where an increase in debt positively affects company value due to the supervisory mechanism and discipline from the debtor. Meanwhile, the theoretical implication is to confirm agency theory and trade-off theory.

Background: In the last decade, the concept of the Glymphatic system as a complexly organized perivascular transport has been formed, it “connects” the cerebrospinal fluid with the lymphatic vessels of the meninges through the extracellular space of the brain. The exact molecular mechanisms of the functioning of the glymphatic pathway have not been fully characterized, but its key role in the cerebral clearance of metabolites and neurotoxic substances is noted. Neurodegenerative diseases affect millions of people around the world, and the most common pathologies from this heterogeneous group of diseases are Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Their pathogenesis is based on abnormal protein aggregation, formation of neurofibrillary insoluble structures, and inefficient removal of neurotoxic metabolites. Aim: This article reviewed the evidence linking glymphatic system dysfunction and the development of human neurodegenerative diseases, and noted the key role of aquaporin-4 in the clearance of metabolites from the brain. Setting and Design: The actual sources of data were compiled and reviewed from PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Sciences from 2012 to 2023. Result and Discussion: Glial-dependent perivascular transport promotes the clearance of interstitial solutes, including beta-amyloid, synuclein, and tau protein, from the parenchymal extracellular space of the brain in normal and pathological conditions. An increase in the proportion of metabolites and pathological proteins in the dysfunction of the glymphatic pathway enhances the progression of cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative processes. In turn, the aging process, oxidative stress, and neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease contribute to reactive astrogliosis and may impair glymphatic clearance. Conclusion: This review describes in detail the features of the glymphatic system and discusses that its dysfunction plays a fundamental significance in the pathological accumulation of metabolites during the progression of neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation. Understanding these processes will make it possible to take new steps in the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

Water is an increasingly valuable resource because its availability, primarily it is limited to precipitation and water storage; for that reason, increasing population density and climate change can interfere with water accessibility. Urban and industrial activities can produce wastewater and pollute waterbodies that could represent a significant water source; however, it needs to be treated prior to its use.  Flocculation is an important pollutants removal method to reduce a variety of organic and inorganic molecules from wastewater, using the flocculant’s intrinsic charges to stabilize/precipitate them, by different methods, one of them being via polyelectrolyte complex. Flocculant versatility depends on its capacity to remove pollutants and there are commercial flocculants with remarkable efficiencies. However, their toxicity can limit their use in waterbodies or for former human use. Research shows that polysaccharides are great option as flocculants because of their easily charged conformation and high molecular weight to neutralize pollutants and precipitate flocs, they are biocompatible, biodegradable, and easy to modify to modulate the flocculant interaction due to the functional group’s high density. This review explores the latest research on polysaccharide polyelectrolyte flocculation and derivatives and their pollutant removal capacity, the polysaccharides evaluated were the most commonly researched such as chitosan, cellulose, chitin, alginate, gums, dextran, among others. Recent research tendencies on these polysaccharides flocculation capacity, showed promising results (up to 99% removal efficiencies) with a wide variety of contaminants, making them excellent candidates for their application in green flocculation.

This study aims to analyse the effect of temperature and wind speed on the performance of different types of photovoltaic (PV) systems at a different state in Malaysia and how it affects the economics and environmental impact assessment in the present year of 2018 as well as future years in 2030 and 2040.  Three types of grid-connected solar PV modules namely Mono-Crystalline, Poly-crystalline, and Thin Film were selected to be implemented in different cities of Shah Alam, Chuping, Alor Setar, Ipoh and Kota Kinabalu. A mathematical model was adopted to estimate the performance characteristics of the solar PV modules. Based on the data in the present year, the highest power output produced by the Mc-Si module for Alor Setar city is given by 33.40 MWh/year while the lowest amount of power output provided by this PV panel is about 28.18 MWh/year in Shah Alam. Furthermore, an area of 144 m2 for the Mono-Crystalline PV module can satisfy the total energy requirement by the resident as it was the most profitable to be implemented compared to Poly-crystalline and Thin Film. The findings of this study can serve as important information on the economic viability of installing PV systems in the selected cities in Malaysia.

Packaging inserts play a crucial role in protecting products during transportation. However, their design and production processes often rely on conventional methods limiting equipment capabilities. Moreover, the empirical nature of their design can result in a lack of reliability in the final product. To address these challenges, this study aimed to validate the design of a packaging insert using the finite element method and subsequently create it using 3D printing. The chosen material is a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) filament commonly used in fused deposition filament printers for 3D printing. This process demonstrates the feasibility of using 3D printing to create cushioning inserts for packaging and employing finite element analysis to simulate the insert behavior. The main findings of this research highlight the potential benefits of numerical simulation, revealing the areas where the insert is primarily impacted by weight. Furthermore, the forces load and displacement simulation results confirm that the TPU elastic limit (3.9x106 MPa) is sufficient to handle the weight this insert intends to hold. These tools determine the viability of the proposed design for its intended application. Therefore, this study verifies that 3D printing is a reliable option for producing packaging inserts, offering significant advantages over traditional methods. These advantages include increased design flexibility and the ability to create custom inserts on demand.
