Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdcourt specie is a traditional African legume, grown in all parts of Burkina Faso. It plays a huge role in the resilience of poor people to food and nutritional insecurity. In order to contribute to the safeguarding of the genetic resources of this specie and to better valorize it in the selection and varietal improvement programs, a study on the phenotypic variability based on the coloration of the seed coat and the nomenclature of the local varieties within certain ethnic groups has been realized. Prospecting and collection of bambara groundnut accessions has made in several localities across the three agro-climatic zones of Burkina Faso. Accessions collected were identified on the basis of seed coat colouring and local names within some ethnic groups. Frequency calculations of the accessions collected according to the staining of tegument were performed. From a total of 138 seed samples collected 322 accessions were obtained with a breakdown into 22 groups of accessions according to the coloration of their tegument. This important phenotypic variability can be exploited in the breeding and varietal breeding programs of bambara groundnut. Knowing the local names of the accessions can also be useful in the nomenclature of the selected varieties and can help in facilitating their adoption by the producers.

The study was conducted to assess the fertility potential of cotton soilsin Côte d’Ivoire. A total of 500 plots of cotton farmers in 5 regions of thecotton basin was selected for soil sampling in the horizon 0-20 cm. Thechemical analyzes of soil samples in the laboratory were performed on thefollowing parameters: particle size, pHwater, organic matter, total N, availableP, K, Ca, Mg and Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC) of soil. The physicalcharacterization revealed that the studied soils are mainly sandy texture in thesurface horizon. This gives them a very low retention capacity. The chemicalcharacterization of soils showed that they have reactions ranging from slightlyacid to neutral (6.4 <pH<7). These soils have very low levels of total organicmatter, total nitrogen, available phosphorus (in northern, south-central andwestern regions), calcium, potassium, and low values of cation exchangecapacity.

This research aims to analyze the health quality of thirst-quenching drinks such as fruit juices produced, sold and consumed in schools. The research was conducted on a sample of 222 learners selected in a classroom setting plus 6 randomly selected female sales representatives in schools. The microbiological analyzes were carried out on samples of different juice drinks made in the colleges. Digitization of collected data, descriptive statistics, cross tables, chi-2 tests, etc. are the statistical tools used. The results show a significant consumption of thirst-quenching drinks: hibiscus flower juice (39.2 %), water (24.1 %), fruit juice (21.6 %), local beer-based cereals (tchakpalo), 12.8% in CEG 1 and 2 of the city of Abomey. The main reasons for their consumption are related to the need for quenching, the presence of sugar and aroma in these drinks and their almost daily availability. As for the microbiological analyzes, they show a contamination of the juice units taken with a significant difference between total flora, molds, yeasts, staphylococci, etc. The contamination factors are related to the quality of the products as well as to the process of making beverages and the hygiene of the houses. Measures to improve hygiene education and improve production techniques are needed to limit the health risks of these thirst-quenching drinks.

This paper focuses on identifying pesticides uses in the protection of cocoa tree. To do this, a survey was conducted among 129 randomly selected cocoa producers in the Daloa zone in Côte d'Ivoire. The results showed that 79.84% of the producers interviewed, use pesticides. Twenty-seven (27) pesticides were identified; among them, 24 were insecticides, 3 were fungicides, and two were not licensed. More than 50% of the insecticides used by famers were neonicotinoids combined with pyrethroids. None of the pesticides was termiticide although termite damage was cited as major. Fiftythree point four percent (53.4%) of producers store pesticides in their house. Empty packs and containers are abandoned in nature after being used by 96% of surveyed farmers, while 4% reused them. The results indicated that producers should be well sensitized on good agricultural practice.

The passion fruit or grenadilla is usually consumed in the form of juice and its pleasant intensive aroma and flavor make it an attractive element for the food industry. The objective of the present work is to determine the effects of membrane technologies such as tangential microfiltration and reverse osmosis on the physicochemical characteristics of passion fruit extracts. The characteristics of the various extracts were determined according to conventional methods. In addition, statistical methods were applied to the data collected in order to determine the effects of membrane technologies. The results showed a yield of 89.33% for the extraction of the microfiltered juice and a volume reduction factor of 16.75 for the concentrate. In addition, the microfiltration-concentration process significantly (p <0.05) influenced the physicochemical parameters of the extracts produced. Thus, tangential microfiltration made it possible to clarify the crude extract by changing from a turbidity of 89.23 ± 1.71 to 0.72 ± 0.02 NTU. It has also resulted in a significant decrease in pH and flavonoids contents. Principal component analysis confirmed the existence of differences between the extracts produced despite the various correlations between their characteristics. It revealed that the JB and CMFT extracts are characterized by their high pH and low density. On the other hand, the COI extract is characterized by its brix degree, viscosity, conductivity and high vitamin C content. In addition, reverse osmosis has the advantage of concentrating the compounds of interest of clarified juice with a concentration factor ranging from 2.15 to 9.39.

If the culture of the cocoa in Côte d’Ivoire gives a great satisfaction concerning the production level, the quality of raw cocoa beans remains to be improved. One of the causes of this depreciation is the moulds development in beans. In order to identify responsible fungus, cocoa beens have been collected in the maine production areas which are the East, the Mid-West and the South-West, represented respectively by the localities of Abengourou, Oumé and Soubré. From collected beans, the fungus have been insulated and purified on PDA medium and then, they have been identified by observing their morphocultural and microscopic characteristics. The results show that 9 mushroom species belonging to 5 genera were identified in cocoa beans collected in the whole of the localities. There are Aspergillus, Penicillium, Fusarium, Curvularia and Streptomyces. Among them, the Aspergillus genus which is able to produce ochratoxine, was found with an appearance frequency of 86.30 %.

Fighting against invasive species is a great challenge that requires knowledge about their potential distribution areas. Ageratum conyzoides is an invasive species in several African countries including Benin. In order to analyze the vulnerability of protected areas of Benin to the invasion of this species, and to guide managers of these areas to fight against invasions, this study used MaxEnt to model the ecological niche of the species under the current and future climates, horizon 2055 RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 scenarios. Environmental data and presence data were gathered respectively from the data bases of AfriClim and GBIF. From the current to the future climates, the potentially suitable areas for the distribution of the species shift from the center to the south of Benin. So, about 75%, 51% and 65% of Benin’s total area are respectively suitable under present climate, and future’s ones (RCP4.5 and RCP8.5). Only about 16% and 43% of this area are absolutely unsuitable and absolutely suitable to the species. As for protected areas, about 29% and 25% of their total area are respectively not vulnerable, and vulnerable to Ageratum conyzoides. Present climate, and future’s ones (RCP4.5, and RCP8.5) held respectively about 62%, 28%, and 48% of protected areas total superficies vulnerable to Ageratum conyzoides.

The objective of the research was to analyze the most appropriate approach to evaluate kinematics learning of first semester students in Engineering Environmental Biotechnology School of Chemical Sciences at the Escuela Superior Politecnica of Chimborazo. To do this, a theoretical framework was established based on didactics and curriculum theory. The investigation was correlational, explanatory and field. The Delphi method was used for consult of experts, who contributed synergistically to give a suitable answer to the research problem. A non-random sample of 24 students from a population of 68 was considered. To test the specific hypotheses, the Chi-square test statistic was used determining that the most appropriate kinematics evaluation approach to apply in the experimental group is by results through indicators of cognitive and affective domain, which positively affects the performance of students in the context of research. Because evaluation is a learning tool and an action-oriented organizational process to improve academic activities and obtain better results in the future, it is recommended to contrast evaluation by learning outcomes with evaluation by objectives or competences.

Published: December 2018

Dye Sensitized-Solar Cells (DSSCs) have been extensively investigated because of their environmental friendliness and low production cost. At the heart of these is the photosensitive pigment that plays a key role in the collection of sunlight radiations and its conversion into electrical energy. However, the toxicity and the cost of pigment synthesis limit the increased use of these prototypes. Natural pigments can be an effective, sustainable, and inexpensive alternative. This paper focuses on determining the main phenolic pigments contents and evaluating the solar light collection capacity of ten (10) tinctorial plants crude extracts, via UV-Visible Spectrophotometry. High concentrations of total polyphenols (46.54 mgEqAG/g), flavonoids (10.95 mgEqQuer/g), anthocyanins (181.9 mgL-1 ), and tannins (40.1 mgL-1 ) were recorded in some extracts of these plants. Absorption spectra showed intense absorption domains around 280 nm in the ultraviolet (UV), and also in the visible (400 to 700 nm). These absorptions would be attributed to the π-π* and n-π* electron transitions of the chromophores present in the anthocyanin, flavonoid, carotenoid, and chlorophyll pigments of these plants. The high contents of pigments and the appropriate spectrophotochemical properties make the extracts of these tinctorial plants to become potential raw materials that are useful in solar energy technology.

Published: December 2018

The main objective of this study is to asssess the impacts of climate change and land cover change on the hydrology of the Davo river basin located in southwestern of Côte d'Ivoire. Two scenarios of climate change (A2 and B2) and two scenarios of land cover called scenario 1 (deforestation) and scenario 2 (reforestation) were established, and streamflows under these scenarios were simulated by the hydrological model CEQUEAU. Each scenario showed distinct variations in streamflows. Regarding the impacts of land cover change, scenario 1 and scenario 2 indicate increases of 10.6% and 1%, respectively. As for the impacts of climate change, climate models predict a very wide range of possible changes in streamflows. The multimodel approach indicates a decrease in streamflows of 0.5% and 2.75% respectively under the A2 and B2 scenarios by 2050. By 2080, streamflows would increase by 14.75% under the scenario A2 and 3.5% under scenario B2. In order to implement adaptation and mitigation strategies, Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) scenarios should be used, regional climate models should be applied, and combined assessments of the impacts of climate change and land cover should be made.
Stress-strain and penetration characteristics of clay modified with crumb rubber
Authors: Vijayasimhan Sivapriya
Published: December 2018

Waste disposal has become a serious issue worldwide due to the huge amount of by-products generated by refineries and smelting industries that threat the environment if they are disposed inefficiently. Development of roads leads to a large usage of vehicles and, hence, a large amount of rubber waste (i.e., from tyres). Given that storing this material pollutes the environment, its recycled reused is currently trending. Various percentages of crumb rubber (0, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40 and 50) were mixed with highly and low compressible clay to understand the strength and penetration characteristics of the modified clay. Additionally, the thickness reduction of the pavement layer that reduces construction costs was visualize.
POLÍTICA DE DESENVOLVIMENTO EM TELECOMUNICAÇÕES: (DES)CONSTRUÇÃO LEGAL ENTRE OS ANOS DE 1964 e 1994
Authors: Covolan Fernanda Cristina , Lula Laryssa Emanuelle Pinheiro
Published: December 2018

Este trabalho se propôs a analisar o percurso normativo das políticas para o desenvolvimento do setor de telecomunicações, em especial a partir do Golpe de 1964 até as vésperas da privatização do sistema Telebrás, visando compreender os avanços e retrocessos na tentativa de implantação de uma estratégia de autonomia em relação à tecnologia estrangeira. O que se observou foi o desenvolvimentismo nacionalista como teoria condutora da primeira fase dessas políticas, já iniciada um pouco antes de 1964 e que continuaria até a metade da década de 1970. A partir de então, as ações coordenadas das empresas detentoras do capital e da tecnologia, estrangeiras, ganharam força, contrapondo-se às orientações iniciais da política para o setor, provavelmente também devido ao enfraquecimento econômico do país. O final do período ditatorial veria o abandono das políticas de reserva de mercado e incentivo às empresas e tecnologia nacional, significando um desestímulo às pesquisas, que permeou todo o setor. Assim, o que se verificou foi um retrocesso legislativo que implicou no enfraquecimento produtivo e tecnológico do setor, dando espaço para a invalidação das políticas desenvolvimentista e servindo como justificativa para o desmantelamento do setor.

HUMANISMO E A DESCONSTRUÇÃO DO HOMEM HUMANO
Authors: Jacomini Alessandro , Gonçalves Camila De Santana
Published: December 2018

O desenvolvimento do ser humano envolve em sua base o crescer, alimentar, reproduzir. Essas formas são comuns tanto para o homem como para outras espécies. Procurando o rompimento com a filosofia superficial, buscou-se pensar sobre o que o homem tem de mais humano. Em virtude do distanciamento do pensamento originário, Heidegger, em seu livro Lettre sur humanisme, “dá o passo de volta”, retomando o que há de mais especial no homem: a sua humanidade. Isso se refere à essência humana, encontrada no pensar meditante mas velada por um grande abismo entre o ser e o ente, ao qual repousa a verdade do humanismo.
O DIREITO SEM FATOS: UMA CRÍTICA FILOSÓFICA E DOUTRINÁRIA JURÍDICA À LIMITAÇÃO DA PRESUNÇÃO DA INOCÊNCIA NO STF
Authors: Batista Neto Dilson Cavalcanti , Batista Tainá De Almeida
Published: December 2018

O presente artigo se propõe a analisar a questão da relativização da presunção de inocência pelo STF (que se deu no bojo do HC 126.292/SP), em relação a um dos argumentos utilizados pela Corte: o de que não há reexame de fatos nos recursos excepcionais (extraordinário e especial). Para tanto – e valendo-se de uma metodologia dedutiva, em que parte-se da discussão geral sobre direito e fatos no debate Kelsen-Cossio e também da hermenêutica mais moderna influenciada pela fenomenologia –, analisou-se o modo como a Teoria Egológica do Direito critica o normativismo kelseniano; posteriormente, fez-se uma abordagem doutrinária acerca da (im)possibilidade de dissociação do direito em fatos e normas e, por fim, foi realizado um breve estudo sobre como o STF usou o argumento de que normas e fatos são passíveis de análise em separado e de que estes não podem ser examinados nos recursos excepcionais para flexibilizar um princípio fundamental. Este trabalho concluiu pela inconsistência e fragilidade do referido posicionamento jurisprudencial do Supremo, uma vez que, à luz do que foi proposto por Cossio e também se valendo de preceitos doutrinários – que, por sua vez, compreendem o direito como uma integralidade de normas, fatos e valores –, entende-se não ser razoável afirmar que os recursos extraordinários não fazem análise alguma de fatos.
LUCROS CESSANTES E A PERDA DO DIREITO DE PATENTE
Authors: Dos Santos Rafael Fernando , Rodrigues Brendy De Brito
Published: December 2018

O presente artigo tem como propósito analisar e entender se há ou não a possibilidade de indenização por parte de um empregado que quebrou o segredo de fábrica ou de negócio, sendo despedido por justa causa e tendo a empresa perdido o direito de patente em decorrência da violação do sigilo. Com base na doutrina existente no que concerne ao direito trabalhista, em relação à justa causa na sua modalidade de violação de segredo, no que compete ao direito de propriedade intelectual, em relação à perda do direito de patente e, finalmente, no que importa ao direito civil no que diz respeito ao lucro cessante e sua necessidade de nexo de causalidade. Entendendo a necessidade do nexo de causalidade para que haja indenização por lucros cessantes, há de se demonstrar, então, que o único obstáculo entre o direito de patente e a empresa seria a publicidade que foi avariada pela quebra de sigilo por parte do empregado. Já que, se houvesse falta de outros requisitos de patenteabilidade, a conduta do empregado, mesmo ensejando causa para extinção do contrato de trabalho, não seria mister para a perda do direito de patente da empresa, descartando, assim, o nexo de causalidade necessário para a responsabilidade civil.
O LUGAR DO IDOSO NA FAMÍLIA PORTUGUESA: UMA BREVE ANÁLISE SOCIOLÓGICA E JURÍDICA
Authors: De Almeida Carla Azevedo , De Souza Dayse Neri
Published: December 2018

O crescente envelhecimento da população portuguesa, conjugado com o aumento de indivíduos que vivem sós, especialmente com 65 anos de idade ou mais, suscita a necessidade de proteção de uma faixa etária que, por motivos financeiros e de saúde, requerem maiores cuidados. Neste estudo procura-se analisar quem são os idosos aos olhos do ordenamento jurídico português e em que medida os institutos previstos no Código Civil, como a incapacidade pontual, a inabilitação e a interdição, e mesmo os deveres de auxílio, de assistência e de alimentos podem ser a resposta para os desafios que se apresentam. Por seu lado, analisam-se as vantagens da criação de um Estatuto do Idoso, à semelhança do que existe no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, recorrendo-se, para o efeito, à revisão de literatura e análise de diplomas legais. Conclui-se que, tendo em consideração a realidade socioeconômica e demográfica portuguesa, a criação de um Estatuto não será a solução adequada, pese embora os institutos mencionados também estarem aquém da proteção desejada para os idosos, sendo manifesta a necessidade de uma intervenção legislativa.
Management of buprenorphine/naloxone therapy in substances abuse consumers in prison: efficacy and safety
Authors: Nava Felice A.
Published: December 2018

The use of agonist therapy in prison is not widespread in Italy or in the rest of the world. This causes a strong limitation in access to care for inmates, but above all causes serious negative consequences on public health, due to the lack of treatment of a population otherwise difficult to reach.  This population, if left untreated, presents greater risks, when discharged from jail, of relapse in use, of infectious diseases occurrence and of death by overdose. Inappropriate treatment also causes a greater difficulty in the management of the inmate: several behavioral disorders, such as self-harm, self and hetero-aggression, and suicide attempts, can be prevented through an appropriate use of agonist therapy. One of the primary objectives in the management of illicit substance users is the increase in the proper use of agonistic treatments, in their duration and dosage and the improvement of their safety profile through the prevention of episodes of misuse and/or diversion. This can be achieved through the use of partial agonist drugs and abuse-deterrent formulations such as buprenorphine/naloxone (Pharmacology)

Lapatinib and capecitabine efficacy at systemic and encephalic level in a patient progressed after dual block of HER2 by trastuzumab and pertuzumab and after T-DM1
Authors: Fontana Andrea
Published: December 2018

We report the case of a patient with a stage IV ab initio HR-/HER2 positive breast cancer. The patient, treated with pertuzumab and trastuzumab for approximately 8 months, developed a progression of both systemic and cerebral disease. Subsequent treatment with T-DM1 obtained disease control for about 10 months. Afterwards we suggested a therapy based on lapatinib and capecitabine with a clear lasting response at encephalic level. This clinical case suggests that the combination of lapatinib + capecitabine is a valid option in case of double-block progression of HER2 and T-DM1. The interesting activity of lapatinib at encephalic level indicates the drug as one of the best therapeutic options available today in this patient setting (Oncology)

High price fluctuations in onions can cause prices at the consumer level to change in a relatively quick time. However, the price change is not necessarily enjoyed by most of the onion farmers. This implies a high marketing margin and low farmer prices. This study aims to analyze the integration of onion consumer market with onion producer market in Indonesia by using VECM (Vector Error Correction Model). Monthly onion price data with 48 time series period is used to analyze the onion market integration. The results show that only the consumer market that affects the market of onion producers (one way). There are short-term and long-term market integration between the consumer market and the onion producers. However, changes that occur in the consumer market are not always accepted by the onion producers of the same scale. This shows that the price information of onion in the producer's market is not always transmitted perfectly to the onion producer market.

This study aims to analyze the economic efficiency of rice farming and to measure the contribution of rice farming to total household income and to analyze the living standard of farm households in Sambeng Kulon Village, Kembaran Sub-district, Banyumas Regency. The study was conducted in Sambeng Kulon Village, Kembaran Sub-district, Banyumas District. There were 71 farm households selected by stratified random sampling. The analysis used to calculate the economic efficiency of rice farming is R/C ratio. The contribution of paddy farming to farm household income is obtained by dividing the income earned from rice farming by the total household income multiplied by 100 percent. The living standard is measured by calculating the farm household income divided by the number of dependents in order to get percapita income. This figure is then compared to the regency’s current decent living standard.

The results of this study indicate that 1) rice farming in Sambeng Kulon village with an area of ​​≤ 0.5 Ha has a smaller profit (IDR2.718.580) compared with respondents who have land area> 0.5 Ha (IDR7.892.904), 2) the average contribution of rice farming income to farm households with landholding of  ​​≤ 0.5 Ha (54,96 percent) is lower than the contribution of rice farming income obtained by respondents with landholding of > 0.5 Ha (77,43 percent), 3) the average income earned by respondents from rice farming (IDR1.624.961,00) is sufficient to meet the average household consumption of IDR 1,379,441.00, and 4) of 71 respondents in Sambeng Kulon Village, 63 respondents live below the decent living standard; after being added with nonfarm income, this figure decreased to 55 respondents. The implication of this research is that the respondents are expected to increase the landholding to increase income earned from rice farming or earn additional nonfarm income so that they can meet household consumption.

The world today has entered to the era of information society connected in a virtual world. Not only in urban areas, this phenomenon is also commonly found in rural areas. Farmers in the village have begun to take advantage of their use of information technology to meet their needs. The result is a response from the government to develop an extension system based on the use of information technology called cyber extension. Based on this phenomenon, it takes a study of the effect of what is caused by the existence of cyber extension and the theory behind it. The approach used is qualitative approach using descriptive method and discourse analysis. The data used are secondary data collected through literature study method. From the discussion is known that cyber extension has given many changes in the social structure and culture of farming communities. Changes that there are moving towards the positive but there is also a precisely cyber extension causing changes to the negative direction.

Pemanfaatan Limbah Produksi Tape Singkong Sebagai Sumber Energi Alternatif Biogas dan Biobriket Untuk Industri Rumah Tangga
Authors: Kadhafi Muammar
Published: December 2018

Bondowoso memiliki  industri  pengolahan tape, salah satunya adalah home industri tape singkong “Seger Wareg” Maesan Bondowoso.  Selain memberi keuntungan secara ekonomi, kegiatan produksi juga menimbulkan masalah berupa limbah kulit singkong. Produksi 200-300 kg tape dapat menghasilkan sekitar 40-60 kg limbah kulit singkong. Kulit singkong dianggap limbah yang tidak berguna oleh sebagian industri tape singkong. Oleh karena itu, bahan ini masih belum banyak dimanfaatkan dan dibuang begitu saja dan umumnya hanya digunakan sebagai pakan ternak, sedangkan kulit singkong dinilai kurang baik sebagai pakan ternak karena mengandung sianida. Kulit singkong memiliki kandungan HCN yang sangat tinggi yaitu sebesar 18,0 – 309,4 ppm untuk per 100 gram kulit singkong (Nur Richana, 2013). HCN atau asam sianida merupakan zat yang bersifat racun baik dalam bentuk bebas maupun kimia, yaitu glikosida, sianogen phaseulonathin, linamarin dan metillinamarin/lotaustrain (Coursey, 1973). Penyelesaian masalah ini dilakukan dalam skema pengabdian kepada masyarakat melalui tahapan memberi sosialisasi tentang pengelolaan sampah, pengolahan limbah dan dampaknya pada lingkungan serta menginisiasi dan memberikan bantuan kepada masyarakat contoh rekator biogas skala rumah tangga yang nantinya dapat diperbanyak sesuai kebutuhan serta memberikan pengetahuan tentang pembuatan biobriket dari limbah kulit singkong. Pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini antara lain;  (a) pemaparan materi pengelolaan limbah kulit singkong, (b) pembagian reaktor biogas dan briket, (c) praktek pembuatan reaktor dan (d) uji nyala api terhadap biogas yang telah terbentuk.
