Published: November 2023

Пептиды относятся к числу важных биологически активных веществ. За последние десятилетия предприняты большие усилия ученых по разработке и получению коротких (низкомолекулярных) пептидов, которые проявляют более высокие фармакологические свойства, чем их прототипы. Источником природных пептидов с высокой биологической активностью может служить вто-ричное рыбное сырье – отходы, получающиеся при разделке рыбы. На рыбопере-рабатывающих предприятиях Калининградской области скапливается большое количество рыбных коллагенсодержащих отходов. В статье описывается возмож-ность получения низкомолекулярных пептидов из вторичного коллагенсодержа-щего рыбного сырья способами комбинированного гидролиза, сочетающими ферментативную и термическую обработку. Исследовано и использовано вторич-ное рыбное сырье – чешуя сардины, головы судака, хребты речного окуня и кожа лосося. Изучены процессы расщепления белка сырья под действием трех типов гидролиза в водной среде – ферментативно-термического, термическо-ферментативного и термическо-ферментативно-термического. В экспериментах использованы ферментный препарат микробиологического синтеза Alcalase® 2,4L от компании Novozymes (Дания) и экспериментальный фермент-ный препарат из пищеварительных органов леща, изготовленный на базе ООО «Биотех». Выявлено, что при комбинированных двух- и трехступенчатых способах гидролиза обеспечивается максимальный выход протеиновых гидроли-затов с низкомолекулярными пептидами. Изучены молекулярные массы пепти-дов, их аминокислотный состав, установлена высокая биологическая ценность полученных протеиновых гидролизатов с низкомолекулярными пептидами. Определено наличие в гидролизатах всех незаменимых аминокислот, а также повышенное содержание пролина, глицина, аланина, глутаминовой и аспарагино-вой кислот, которые необходимы для укрепления иммунитета, эргодинамики ор-ганизма и работы опорно-двигательного аппарата человека.

Published: November 2023

It is well-known that ionizing radiation is among factors increasing the rate of chromosomal rearrangements. The inversion rate was poorly understood due to difficulty of inversion identification by the conventional differential staining method. A comprehensive study of chromatin and its complex rearrangements has become possible with the use of the high-tech molecular genetic method, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The study was aimed to assess frequency of inversions involving the chromosome telomeric regions in 36 residents of the South Urals, almost all of them were affected by combined chronic exposure. The calculated individualized cumulative external and internal doses were 0.0001–4.7 Gy. Inversions were identified by fluorescence staining of the chromosome telomeric region. It was found that chromatid inversions were more abundant than chromosomal variants (9 : 0.3 per 100 cells (p < 0.001). No relationship between the studied parameters and the absorbed dose, sex and age at the time of the examination was revealed.

Heirs are those who, because of their position to the testator, are entitled to occupy the place of heir to the inheritance. In principle, all heirs have the right to inherit, except because of conduct or legal acts that are detrimental to the heir so that the position of heirs can be canceled under law. This study uses empirical legal research by using existing data in the field by interviewing competent people. Then supported by secondary data in the form of primary legal materials and legal materials. From the research that has been done, it can be found that the status of customary land, both temple profit land, village father's land and customary land in the heirs' family clan which is an inheritance or property from ancestors, who are entitled to inherit it are heirs who still adhere to Hindu beliefs only. Because the heirs who still adhere to Hinduism who can carry out their obligations to worship the ancestors who stand in the holy place. Inheritance in Balinese customary law does not solely contain the rights of heirs to inheritance, but more than that the most important thing is the obligation of heirs to heirs. This obligation of the heir is a consequence of the rights he receives. Where an heir in Balinese customary inheritance law has certain obligations, namely: 1) Maintaining the heir in a state of incapacity; 2) Burying the body of the heir or holding a funeral service for the heir to bury his spirit in Sanggah/Mrajan (family place of worship); 3) Worship the spirits of ancestors who reside in Sanggah/Mrajan; 4) Carry out obligations (fatherhood) towards Banjars and Customary Villages.

Published: November 2023

Microbes are everywhere around us, some inhabiting the soil, water and atmosphere. The study of microbes in their natural environment is called microbial ecology. Ecology is a part of biology that is concerned with the study of the relationship of organisms or groups of organisms with their environment. Microbial ecology plays an important role in helping improve environmental quality. For example, microbes decompose waste from humans and industry that is thrown into it. A microorganism can grow well if the surrounding environmental conditions are very supportive. Microorganisms that grow are an increase in the number of microbes so that they can form a microbial population which can be called a colony and not cells that increase in size or length. The population of microorganisms can become very large in a relatively short period of time and the growth of microorganisms cannot be controlled. The presence of microorganisms in the environment can provide advantages and disadvantage
THE ANGLO-SCOTTISH BALLAD IN THE LIGHT OF CHANGING TRANSLATION PARADIGMS: TWO CENTURIES OF TRANSLATION
Authors:   Moscow State Pedagogical University, Prokonichev Georgy I.
Published: November 2023

Translation of a poetic text has always attracted the eye of translators and poets who wanted to present the best works of foreign cultures to their compatriots. Due to that the folklore text, which reflects the distinctive features of a different culture, its history and beliefs, long ago became a special object of attention. At different stages of the development of translators’ art, there were different approaches to the interpretation of a literary text. In some eras, the translation was word for word, during other periods it was considered correct to improve the original text. Some linguists believed that literary text was untranslatable. However, in the 20th century, translation finally evolved into a science and the foundations of a systematic approach to translation were developed. The history of ballad translations in Russia goes back two centuries. Various poets worked with these texts and their approaches were often different. In some cases, translators transformed realities which they met int elements of their own culture, changed the rhythmic and organizational structure of the text, and even removed a few couplets. This approach is characteristic of the entire 19th century. Then the paradigm changes: other specialists try to preserve the original sound of the ballads, the archaic language and the syntax characteristic of ballads. Poetry translators of the 20th century set and gradually reach these goals, although some of them still translate within the framework of the approach of the period of classicism and make their own improvements to the text. The last stage is the latest translations. The disappearance of strict censorship gives the translator the opportunity to translate folk poetry using folk, colloquial, sometimes obscene words, although the appropriateness of their use should be carefully weighed in each case. Our investigation allows us to conclude that the development of approaches to ballad translation follows the traditional periodization of paradigms and yet some problems of poetic translation are still open.
MOTIVATION LETTER FROM THE STANDPOINT OF THE POLYPARADIGM APPROACH

Published: November 2023

The article focuses on the study of motivation letter which is a personalized document created by an applicant for a competitive position in business and academic environment. The aim of the article is to present a comprehensive interpretation of motivational writing at the intersection of different research concepts and communicative practices. The empirical base was made up of motivation letters prepared by American, British and Russian applicants for admission to various educational programs, as well as recommendations offered by universities on how to compose such texts. The main research method was a polyparadigm approach including discursive, linguocultural, narratological, genre, linguistic and stylistic aspects. The results of the study demonstrate that the motivation letter is an imperative and initial speech genre, with a hierarchical — from bottom to top — vector of relations between the author and the addressee. The content of the message reflects the development of professional and personal qualities of the applicant in a retrospective-perspective manner, whereas the form is determined by a set of structural elements (greeting, exposition, main part, conclusion). The article considers the peculiarities of lexical nominations and grammatical constructions used to express the meanings which are significant for the participants of communication. It proves that the techniques of storytelling and the use of functional-stylistic means lead to the hybridization of motivational writing as a result of interaction of academic, colloquial, administrative and artistic discourses. Particular attention is paid to the identification and description of the implementation of communicative canons, genre-stylistic norms, language standards in the Russian and Western linguocultures.

Важнейшим фактором роста экономики совместного потребления являются цифровые информационные технологии, уже изменившие жизнь человечества и поменявшие представление о доступности услуг и продуктов. Современная интернет-реклама ориентирует потребителей на совместное пользование разными предметами. ТВ-реклама также является элементом формирования потребительского спроса шеринговой экономики, основанном на использовании цифровых ИТ-технологий (пример – реклама ВlaBlaCar, которая одно время наводнила все информационное пространство и в интернете, и на телевидении). Эксперты уверены, что у Sharing-экономики имеется поистине гигантский потенциал, исчисляемый триллионами долларов. И она тем самым выступает весомой угрозой для традиционной экономики.

The most important factor in the growth of the sharing economy is digital information technology, which has already changed the life of mankind and changed the idea of the availability of services and products. Modern Internet advertising focuses consumers on the sharing of different items. TV advertising is also an element in the formation of consumer demand in the sharing economy, based on the use of digital IT technologies (an example is BlaBlaCar advertising, which at one time flooded the entire information space both on the Internet and on television). Experts are confident that the Sharing economy has a truly gigantic potential, amounting to trillions of dollars. And thus it acts as a significant threat to the traditional economy.

Modeling allows us to explore how the level of development of 118 countries and conditions related to political stability, the quality of regulation and the rule of law could affect the results of the financial system. The relationships obtained were not consistent across all variables of the financial system results, but the results also indicate that political stability and the rule of law do affect financial depth and efficiency, respectively, as indirect indicators of the financial system results.
Solow Growth Model dan Kausalitas Hubungan Saving dan Pertumbuhan Ekonomi: Perbandingan Negara Maju (High Level Income) dan Negara Berkembang (Upper-Middle Level Income)
Authors: Pakaryaningsih Elok , Silalahi Pristanto
Published: November 2023

At a theoretical level, it is believed that there is a relationship between savings rates and economic growth. In this case, accumulated savings can be used for investment purposes, which will then encourage GDP growth in the short term. On the contrary, in Keynes's view, GDP growth actually triggers growth in the savings rate. Debate then emerged as to which factors were the cause of a country's economic growth. This research uses the Solow Growth Model theoretical approach, which states that under the assumption of a closed economy, the level of savings will influence the level of investment and in turn have an impact on economic growth. Based on these arguments, this research conducted a comparative analysis of two countries, namely Indonesia and Singapore, in the period 2008-2022. The research results show that there is a tendency in the same direction of causality between savings levels and economic growth, at the two extremes of country income levels. Indonesia as a country in the upper-middle income category, and Singapore as a country in the high income category, have economic growth rates caused by the level of capital accumulation through savings. So that policies related to savings accumulation will still be relevant in the future. For future research, it is recommended to consider the influence of other macro variables, considering that the Solow Growth Model requires long-term longitudinal analysis, so that distortion of macro variables such as interest rates can have an impact on the causality of the relationship.

Paleovolcanism of the eastern Magnitogorsk megazone, Southern Urals: Petrology, geochemistry, and gold-bearing perspectives
Authors: SURIN TIMOTHEY
Published: November 2023

The geological-petrographic and petrogeochemical features of volcanic rocks are considered of the Gumbeika zone in the Southern Urals, that is the frontal easternmost portion of the East Magnitogorsk paleo-island arc. The volcanites are united into the Gumbeika volcanic association. The association is shown to be represented by the basalt– andesite–dacite–rhyodacite “uninterrupted” homodrom igneous series. The compositional features of the volcanics allow confident assigning them to the island-arc calc-alkaline series, or more precisely, to formations of “developed” island arcs. It is concluded that the main process that determines the general appearance and composition of the unified petrogenetic series of rocks of the Gumbeika association was the fractional crystallization of the parental basaltic melts in deep-seated chambers and, then, in near-surface peripheral ones. The emplacement of some of the magmatic bodies was also accompanied by in situ gravitational differentiation. The general similarity of the volcanics-associated gold-silver deposits with the analogs within recent island arcs allows us to suggest a great perspectives for gold-silver mineralization throughout the Gumbeika zone. Two forecasted ore fields have been identified.
Teaching Thinking through Mathematical Processes: A Review
Authors: Ngunjiri Prof. Mbuthia
Published: November 2023

This paper focuses on seven mathematical processes that describe the action of doing mathematics. It is clear that doing mathematics means engaging in processes. These include: problem solving, reasoning and proving, tools and computational strategies, connecting, representation, and communication. The mathematical processes can be seen as the processes through which students think, acquire, and apply mathematical knowledge and skills in everyday use of mathematics. In mathematics instruction, students are largely unaware of the processes involved in mathematics which requires surface and deep thinking and addressing this issue is important. Therefore, mathematics teachers need to understand how the mathematical processes can be taught to improve student thinking and understanding of the subject. It is also recommended that a study be done on how self-efficacy beliefs of students in mathematics can be influenced by teaching of the mathematical processes.

This paper focused on documenting and characterizing the socio-economic status of Dapitan City, Philippines, briefly before 1898, during the American occupation until the present republic in 2015 by making use of archival methods. Furthermore, interviews with the seven key informants supported and strengthened the data. Over the years, Dapitan City in Zamboanga del Norte has become greatly dependent on the Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA), which is the fiscal transfer in the Philippines that serves as the biggest source of operating revenues for the local government units (LGUs) to perform their functions. In its history, the economic conditions of Dapitan improved, albeit slowly if compared to other progressive cities in the country. This rate of transition from a less progressive to a more progressive state can be explained by Dapitan’s natural and historical aura, which is still being preserved and protected. Despite this advantage, the transition depicted in the history of Dapitan did not offer an abundance of economic opportunities that would have catered to the needs of its human resources and eventually helped disadvantaged groups move above the poverty line. Dapitan did not take advantage of becoming the center of a progressive economic structure due to the different paths it took to formulate its concept of progress and modernization. Life in Dapitan is simple as the city is not subject to the rapid process of industrialization. It only attracted a few big business investors that could create more and a variety of jobs.
Development Expectation Gap of Design-Build Contract Delivery in China's Civil Aviation Infrastructure Projects
Authors: Zhou Chonghua
Published: November 2023

Despite the reduction in cost and schedule, and the improvement of quality and safety, the design-build (DB) method in China's civil aviation infrastructure projects (CAIPs) has not been widely used and not reached the full value. To know what the development expectation gap is, it is necessary to determine the disparity in developmental prospects of the DB method in China's CAIPs. To this end, this paper first conducted a survey to know what the development expectation is through 69 subjects working in CAIPs. After that, 25 cases data were collected to get the actual development of the DB in CAIPs. The key findings from the comparison between the expectation and actual development show that the design institutes play a leading role in the popular form of consortium in the DB mode, and the DB method is mainly used in CAIPs with small investment. In addition, this paper also analyzes how some causes contributed to the development gap and presents three strategic actions. This study not only shows the development status of the DB method in CAIPs but also presents the reasons contributing the development expectation gap, along with the potential strategic actions, which can be as a reference for scholars and practitioners.

Democracia defensiva na Alemanha e no Brasil na prática de hoje: paralelos entre o Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz (BfV) e a Procuradoria Nacional da União de defesa da democracia
Authors: Rêgo Eduardo de Carvalho , Justino de Oliveira Gustavo Henrique
Published: November 2023

O tema “democracia defensiva” voltou à baila durante o governo do ex-Presidente da República Jair Bolsonaro, uma vez que os demais poderes identificaram a necessidade de combater ativamente a erosão democrática por ele provocada. Com a recente troca de governo, o Poder Executivo Federal, declaradamente inspirado na aludida teoria, criou a Procuradoria Nacional da União de Defesa da Democracia da Advocacia-Geral da União com o escopo principal de defender judicialmente a integridade da ação pública e a preservação da legitimação dos três Poderes e de seus membros para o exercício de suas funções constitucionais. A iniciativa brasileira segue o exemplo dado pela Alemanha do segundo pós-guerra, que criou, pelos mesmos motivos, o Serviço Federal para a Proteção da Constituição da Alemanha (BfV). Com base nesse pano de fundo, o presente artigo científico tem por objetivo principal apresentar as duas iniciativas governamentais acima referidas, além de traçar os paralelos possíveis entre Alemanha e Brasil na criação de uma cultura de “democracia defensiva” e, o que é mais relevante, na efetiva defesa da democracia.
Globalização inacabada: o fracasso na abordagem do legado do colonialismo nos direitos humanos internacionais e na governança migratória

Published: November 2023

A era pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial do Direito Internacional foi prolífica na geração de processos intrincados e complexos de promoção dos direitos humanos, por meio da criação de normas específicas e agências especializadas, enquadrando a proteção dos indivíduos nos principais documentos de direitos. A maior parte destes instrumentos foram incorporados a nível doméstico dos Estados para proteger predominantemente os nacionais, os civis legais - uma perspectiva ainda muito ligada à dimensão territorial da Soberania do Estado. Dessa maneira, quando se trata de governança dos diferentes ramos do Direito Internacional dos Direitos Humanos, o Sistema Internacional ainda falha em não avançar no processo de descolonização como uma superação histórica do colonialismo, e não como apenas um processo puramente legal de emancipação das colônias, mas de quebrar o paradigma da dinâmica de poder dentro das próprias estruturas do Sistema, pois não foram criados mecanismos internacionais importantes para superar a vantagem colonial dentro das Organizações Internacionais - e isso se reflete na dinâmica institucional de agências especializadas e órgãos subsidiários da ONU, como o ACNUR, destinados a atender refugiados, sendo que alguns deles sequer foram projetados para durar mais do que seu mandato institucional original. Além disso, nas últimas décadas, com a expansão e facilitação do fluxo de informações, bens e serviços, tais facilidades não foram permitidas, em extensão, aos migrantes, e a figura do estrangeiro passa a ser tão mais interessante para o sistema econômico quando permanece indocumentado, ao contrário do cidadão nacional, protegido, e como a maioria dos migrantes econômicos e refugiados são do Sul Global, isso pode implicar em um processo de globalização inacabado, pois o próprio sistema se alimenta dessa lógica colonial, fazendo com que essa figura do migrante ilegal se alimente dela. Saskia Sassen e Anne Orford trarão luz sobre este assunto, sobre como a globalização econômica depende da atual divisão internacional do trabalho e da migração, explorando esses migrantes, porque esta privação de direitos que os torna indocumentados é a condição necessária para a sua exploração laboral.
Efficacy of Motor Interventions on Functional Performance Among Preschool Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Published: November 2023

Importance: Motor ability plays an important role in overall developmental profiles. Preschool children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at risk of motor skills deficits and delays. However, evidence of the efficacy of different motor interventions for the identification of optimal treatment types is lacking, especially for preschool children with ASD.

Objective: To examine the efficacy of the Motor Skill Occupational Therapy Intervention ON ASD (MOTION–ASD) and Cognitive Orientation Exercise (CO–EXC) programs to improve motor skills performance, self-care performance, and adaptive behaviors among preschool children with ASD.

Design: Randomized controlled trial, two-group, triple-blinded, repeated-measures design

Setting: University laboratory.

Participants: Thirteen preschool children with ASD (M age = 4.91 yr).

Outcomes and Measures: The Bruininks–Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency–Second Edition, Brief Form, Assessment of Motor and Process Skills, and Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales–Third Edition.

Results: Children in the MOTION–ASD group showed significantly greater improvements in manual coordination and overall gross and fine manual skills than those in the CO–EXC group immediately after the intervention. Significant improvements in fine manual control, body coordination, overall motor skills, and self-care performance were made throughout both interventions and were retained at the posttest and the 4-wk follow-up.

Conclusions and Relevance: These findings provide supporting evidence that motor skills interventions involving fundamental skills and cognitive training may be a viable therapeutic option for treating children with ASD. The results also suggest that practitioners may consider providing structured and strategic motor skills interventions for preschool children with ASD.

What This Article Adds: This study’s rigorous tests of motor skills interventions support ways to manage motor difficulties in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). An intervention based on motor learning theory could benefit preschool children with ASD, especially in terms of manual coordination ability and overall gross and fine motor skills.
