Übersetzung von fiktionaler und nichtfiktionaler Prosa. Untersucht an polnisch-deutschen und polnisch-englischen Translationsfällen
Authors: Schultze Brigitte
Published: February 2021

Die spezifischen translatorischen Herausforderungen beim Übersetzen von fiktionaler Prosa auf der einen und nichtfiktionaler Prosa auf der anderen Seite hängen mit dem unterschiedlichen Status beider Formen der Narration zusammen: Beim fiktionalen Erzählen sind vor allem das vom Autor gewählte narrative Genre, Epochenströmungen bzw. -codes, vielleicht eine individuelle Ästhetik zu beachten; beim „faktualen“ Erzählen (MARTINEZ / SCHEFFEL 2005) ist die nichtfiktionale Textsorte sowie der – in der Regel absichtsvolle – Umgang des Autors mit dem Faktenmaterial besonders wichtig. Beide für vergleichende Analysen gewählten Beispiele sind in den 1950er Jahren entstanden: Für die fiktionale Prosa steht MAREK HŁASKOs kurze Erzählung Krzyż (‚Das Kreuz‘, 1956), für die nichtfiktionale bzw. halbfiktionale Prosa stehen GUSTAV HERLING-GRUDZIŃSKIs kanonische Memoiren aus dem Gulag, Inny świat (‚Eine andere Welt‘, 1951/1952).
Syntaktische, semantische und pragmatische Funktionen von Nominalgruppen im Deutschen
Authors: Blühdorn Hardarik
Published: February 2021

Der vorliegende Aufsatz gibt einen Überblick über die Funktionsvielfalt der Nominalgruppe im Gegenwartsdeutschen. In pragmatischer Hinsicht wird unterschieden zwischen referentiellem und nicht-referentiellem Gebrauch. Letzterer zerfällt weiter in beschreibenden und benennenden Gebrauch. Syntaktisch können Nominalgruppen als Argumente, Prädikative und Adverbialia fungieren. Diese Funktionen unterscheiden sich vor allem bezüglich der Verteilung morphologischer Kasus und thematischer Rollen. Hinsichtlich ihres internen Aufbaus ist zu unterscheiden zwischen artikellosen und artikelhaltigen Nominalgruppen. Artikelhaltige stellen im Deutschen den Normalfall dar, während artikellose auf besondere Verwendungskontexte beschränkt sind. In engem Zusammenhang damit steht die Definitheitsunterscheidung: Definite Nominalgruppen enthalten einen Definitmarker, indefinite nicht. In semantischer Hinsicht ist zwischen Individuen- und Masse-Lesarten sowie zwischen partikulären und generischen Lesarten zu unterscheiden. – Der Aufsatz versteht sich als Handreichung für Studierende und Lehrende der Germanistischen Linguistik sowie des Faches Deutsch als Fremdsprache.

Актуальность исследования. Болезнь Кашина–Бека (уровская болезнь) является классическим примером класса эндемических болезней. Однако, в отличие от других болезней, для данного заболевания до сих пор не установлена причина возникновения. В настоящее время в научной литературе обсуждается более 20 теорий и гипотез, объясняющих этиологию и факторы болезни. Приоритетной теорией является биогеохимическая, согласно которой возникновение и течение болезни зависит от фактора окружающей среды (недостаток/избыток химических элементов или соединений). В связи с этим изучение химического состава компонентов окружающей среды в районе распространения болезни Кашина–Бека является актуальным. Цель: оценка геохимических особенностей компонентов природной среды на территории юго-восточного Забайкалья – района распространения болезни Кашина–Бека. Объекты: компоненты природной среды – почва, донные отложения, природные воды (поверхностные, подземные), солевые отложения питьевых вод, керн годовых колец деревьев, листья тополя, лишайники, мхи, полынь, картофель, волосы детей, кости свиньи домашней. Методы: элементный состав изученных компонентов природной среды определен методами инструментального нейтронно-активационного анализа и масс-спектрометрии с индуктивно связанной плазмой. Обработка полученных данных включала нормирование содержания химических элементов относительно фоновых показателей (кларк ноосферы, вода оз. Байкал) и расчет индикаторных отношений. Результаты. Изучено содержание 26 (по данным инструментального нейтронно-активационного анализа) и 62 (по данным масс-спектрометрии с индуктивно связанной плазмой) химических элементов в 13 компонентах природной среды. В элементном составе всех изученных компонентов выявлена региональная геохимическая ассоциация (Zn-Pb-Ba-Sb-As-Bi-Au), связанная с особенностями металлогении района. Для проведения будущих исследований наиболее информативными компонентами являются природные воды, костная ткань, волосы детей. Наиболее контрастная геохимическая специализация окружающей среды формируется в населенных пунктах, где по литературным данным наблюдались максимальные уровни заболеваемости болезни Кашина–Бека. Этиология болезни носит многофакторный характер: в развитии заболевания большую роль играют природные условия, что приводит к дисбалансу элементного состава компонентов окружающей среды и, соответственно, организма человека.
СОВРЕМЕННОЕ СОСТОЯНИЕ МОЛИБДЕНОВОЙ ПРОМЫШЛЕННОСТИ РОССИИ
Authors: Боярко Григорий Юрьевич , Хатьков Виталий Юрьевич
Published: February 2021

Актуальность работыобусловлена необходимостью изучения проблем молибденовой промышленности России. Цель: изучение динамики товарных потоков (производства, импорта, экспорта, потребления) молибденовых продуктов (молибденитовых концентратов и ферромолибдена), их цен (мировых, российского импорта и экспорта) и долей участия российским молибденовых продуктов в мировом хозяйстве; выработка рекомендаций по оптимизации товарооборота молибденовой продукции. Методы: статистический, графический, логический. В результате анализа динамики товарных потоков молибденовых продуктов и цен на них, результатовдеятельности добывающих и перерабатывающих предприятий установлены значительные изменения состояния российской молибденовой промышленности. До 2005 г. молибденовая отрасль России находилась в кризисном состоянии,экспортируя значительную часть молибденитового концентрата и импортируя большую часть потребляемого ферромолибдена. В результате резкого увеличения в 2004–2008 гг. мировых цен на практически все молибденовые продукты стали привлекательны инвестиции в проекты молибденовой отрасли. Построены новые ферромолибденовые заводы (Сорский и Жирекенский), началась подготовка проектов добычи молибдена на новых месторождениях (молибденовые Агаскырское и Бурдаинское, Ак-Сугское медно-порфировое, Южно-Шамейскоевольфрам-молибденовое), появился значительный экспортный поток ферромолибдена.Спад мировых цен на молибденовые продукты начиная с 2009 г. привел к откату активности в молибденовой отрасли России, но в целом ее состояние не критично. Добыча молибденового сырья перестала быть экспортоориентированной, а с появлением дефицита национального потребления появилась и формальная импортная зависимость (20–36% от потребления). Возникаетнеобходимость наращивания национального производства (добычи) молибденовых руд и концентратов. Сформировался принципиально новый технологический поток сквозной импорто-экспортной торговли, когда импортируется молибденитовый концентрат, а произведенный из него ферромолибден направляется на экспорт. Для улучшения ситуации в российской молибденовой промышленности рекомендуется: ускорение восстановления остановленных добывающих и перерабатывающих предприятий; вовлечение в эксплуатацию новых молибденовых месторождений; использование новых технологий обогащения и переработки молибденового сырья; организация производства новых товарных продуктов – оксидов молибдена и молибдатов.
ОПРЕДЕЛЕНИЯ УСЛОВИЙ И ХАРАКТЕРИСТИК ЗАЖИГАНИЯ ЧАСТИЦ ВЛАЖНОЙ ДРЕВЕСИНЫ ДЛЯ ПОВЫШЕНИЯ РЕСУРСОЭФФЕКТИВНОСТИ ТЕПЛОЭНЕРГЕТИКИ

Актуальность.Анализ прогнозов специалистов показывает, что рост потребления электроэнергии в мире до 2030 г. составит 2,4%. На сегодняшний день вырабатываемая на тепловых электрических станциях энергия составляет 2/3 от общей вырабатываемой всеми источниками. Большинство этих ТЭС в качестве топлива используют уголь. Доля ТЭС, использующих это топливо, – 40 %. При сжигании угля происходит интенсивное выделение загрязняющих веществ, таких как NOx и SOx, основные последствия которого: ухудшение состояния здоровья человека, смог, кислотные дожди, парниковый эффект и пыление. Одним из новых инновационных решений экологических проблем угольной энергетики можетстать сжигание биомассы (отходы лесопиления и лесного хозяйства). По оценкам специалистов объем запасов древесины в России превышает 82·109м3и составляет 25% от мировых запасов. Отходы ее переработки составляют более 30·106 м3 в год. Интерес к использованию древесной биомассы также обуславливается постоянно возрастающими требованиями по экологичности объектов теплоэнергетики. Цель: экспериментальное установление зависимостей условий (минимальных температур) и характеристик (времен задержки) зажигания от вида древесной биомассы и её влагосодержания на примере четырех достаточно доступных и широко распространенных видов древесины (наиболее калорийной и поэтому перспективной для теплоэнергетики). Объект: сухая и насыщенная влагой древесина четырех видов (кедр, лиственница, сосна и осина). Экспериментальные исследования проведены для древесных частиц с относительной влажностью: 5, 30 и 45%. Метод: экспериментальное определение с использованием высокоскоростной видеокамеры Photron FASTCAM СА4 временных характеристик процессов зажигания частиц древесины в условиях, соответствующих по интенсивности нагрева камерам сгорания паровых и водогрейных котлов; регистрация температуры среды с использованием хромель-алюмелевых термопар. Результаты. Приведены выполненные с целью обоснования ресурсуэффективности использования в теплоэнергетике древесной биомассы (как базового топлива паровых и водогрейных котлов) результаты экспериментальных исследований процессов зажигания сухих и влажных частиц четырех видов древесной биомассы в среде нагретого до высоких температур воздуха. Установлено существенное влияние вида древесины на условия и характеристики зажигания её одиночных частиц. Также установлено значительное влияние влажности на времена задержки зажигания частиц исследованных видов биомассы. Такие времена, соответствующие древесине в естественном состоянии, в 3–4 раза превышают во всем (достаточно широком) диапазоне изменения значимых для практики температур времена задержки зажигания сухих частиц древесины. Установленные в проведенныхэкспериментах закономерности иллюстрируют перспективность использования в теплоэнергетике древесной биомассы как основного топлива или компоненты древесно-угольной смеси.

Authors: Bouchareb Radia , Guendouz Ali
Published: February 2021

Background: Assessment of yield stability of durum wheat growing under different environments has been an important issue for wheat breeder. More Information about phenotypic stability is useful for the selection of adapted and stable genotypes which are suitable for wider range of planting. Methods: To calculate the parametric and non-parametric index, we use the program STABILITYSOFT. The aim of this study is the selection of adapted and stable genotypes based on the use of parametric and non-parametric index. Result: The graphic distribution of the genotypes tested based on the relationship between the mean grain yield and regression coefficient (bi), proved that the suitable genotypes for the tested conditions are Bidi17, Wahbi and Gta dur. The values of deviation from regression (S²di) classified the genotype Waha, as the most desirable genotypes. The Association between Wricke’s ecovalence (Wi²) indice and the grain yield proved that the best genotype for growing under these conditions are Bidi17, Wahbi and Gta dur. In addition, the non-parametric index confirmed the results which are registered by the selection based on the parametric index. Thus, the genotypes Bidi17 and Wahbi are the most stable genotypes. The classification based on the use of the principal component analysis classified the genotypes Wahbi and Bidi17 in dynamic stability group with highest grain yield. Therefore, genotypes with b values close to 1 (Wahbi, b = 0.95 and Bidi17, b = 0.98) are preferred since it is indicative of wide adaptation (dynamic stability), provided their mean yield is over the general mean. Overall, the uses of the parametric and non-parametric index are very suitable tools to select adapted and stable genotypes under sub-humid conditions.

Published: February 2021

Background: Digit lengths are dimorphic in some other creatures as in humans. In particular, gender analysis can be done using the ratio between the second finger (D2) and the fourth finger (D4). The aim of this study is to examine whether the ratio of foot fingers is related to gender in Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica). Methods: In this study, 60 adults (30 female and 30 male) Japanese quail foot digit length ratios were examined in relation to gender. The ratios of the lengths of the second finger (D2), the third finger (D3) and the fourth finger (D4) to each other were taken on the computer. Result: In addition, geometrical analysis of base posture positions between female and male individuals were made and shape differences were revealed. It was observed that the second finger (D2) of male birds was more introverted than in females. It was seen that Principal component analysis (PCA1) explained 53.07% of the total variation between female and male groups. PCA2 explained 17.6% of the total variation and PCA3 announced 11.83%. In statistical morphometric analysis, the difference in shape between the male and female was statistically insignificant. D2:D3, D2:D4 and D3:D4 ratios were higher in males. It was observed that the lateral angle in both genders was higher than medial angle. This difference was statistically significant (p less than 0.001). While the average of the lateral angle was 50.89% in all individuals, the average of the medial angle was 42.81%. The highest length in all individuals belonged to the third finger. It was observed that the ratio of D2:D4 among females used in the study was 0.867 in females and 0.877 in males.

Authors: Widjajanto D.W. , . Sumarsono , Purbajanti Endang Dwi
Published: February 2021

Background: The beneficial elements availability such as silicon was determined rice growth and yield. Rice requires a different dose of silicon during the growing period. Experiment was aimed to investigate the effect of silicate levels, rice varieties and the interaction of the two on the growth and yields of two local Indonesian varieties of rice. Methods: A completely randomized design of factorial pattern with 4 replications was used in the experiment. Treatments consisted of No added SiO2 (Si-0); added 100 and 200 kg SiO2 ha-1, respectively for Si-100 and Si-200 and two local rice varieties, Pandan wangi (P1) and Mentik susu (P2). Result: The treatment had no significant effect on growth and yield of rice. Addition of 100 and 200 kg SiO2 ha-1 to P1 and P2 did not show a significant difference on the growth and yield of rice compared to control (P0). Plant height and root dry weight at P1 was lower than P2, but the 1,000-grain weight was showed, vice versa. Silicon addition up to 200 kg SiO2 ha-1 may not be recommended to be applied in rice cultivation, especially Pandan wangi and Mentik susu varieties. Improving the two varieties, further research is needed by increasing the silicon doses.

Authors: Jantasorn Arom , Pongsupap Ponpawit , Oiuphisittraiwat Thanaprasong
Published: February 2021

Background: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a major cereal crops planted in Thailand for both local consumption and export. The objective of this study was to investigate the allelopathic effect of Caesalpinia sappan L. and Crateva magna (Lour.) DC. extracts in promoting a rice cultivar, Khao Dowk Mali 105 (KDML105) seed germination and seedling growth, at 7 and 14 days after sowing (DAS). Methods: The C. sappan and C. magna plants were cleaned with tap water and air dried in room temperature then cut into small pieces and ground into fine powder. Plant crude extracts was prepared using ethanol as solvent. Result: The results showed that rice seed treatment with C. sappan and C. magna extracts was significant (all p less than 0.05), increasing root length, shoot fresh and dry weight and root fresh and dry weight of rice seedlings at 14 DAS. Seed treatment with these two plant extracts led to a significantly greater vigor index of the KDML105 rice seedling cultivar, when compared with the control. Interestingly, the seed treatment with C. magna extract at a 100 ppm concentration was found to produce the highest enhancement in the overall rice seedling growth parameters, including the vigor index of seedlings. The results showed that a low concentration of C. magna extracts can be potentially used in promoting seedling growth of rice since they improved the overall growth parameters.

The need for civic engagement and competency in higher education in Lebanon
Authors: Joudi Nadine , Chehimi Ghada
Published: February 2021

Lebanon has always been unstable on the political and the national security levels. The youth in Lebanon did not have the privilege of stability to engage in civic activities and become active citizens. The youth need to collaborate with adults to explore different issues and opportunities to develop civic engagement in their own society. This study is an exploratory research which reveals the need for constructive plans in higher education in Lebanon that will lead youth to civic engagement and competence. It also focuses on exploring the existence of university curriculum that fosters the actual implementation of civic engagement and civic competency programmes. Data were collected using a qualitative framework. University studentsâ€™ civic competency, knowledge, skills, participation in civic engagement, attitudes and efficacy are assessed by using focus group discussions with students and instructors. The research outcomes provide a foundation for the sustainable interventions through the development of a university curriculum.

As a virus which affected the world in general, the covid-19 pandemic has also created negative results on education. In this study, it was aimed to examine the opinions of elementary school students in Covid-19 pandemic process on mathematics course. The participants of the study were fifth grade elementary school students enrolled at elementary schools affiliated with the Ministry of National Education and Culture in Northern Cyprus. This study is a descriptive research and survey method was used in the study. As data collection tool, the questionnaire form developed by the researchers in this study was used. As a result, it was seen with this research that most of the students did not take private lessons during the pandemic period, and there was a decrease in the rate of attending private lessons or courses due to the pandemic compared to previous years. It was understood that a significant part of the students had difficulty in understanding the mathematics class during the pandemic period, but most of them enjoyed studying mathematics. While the students stated that the classes, materials and homework given to them in the mathematics class were not sufficient, many students stated that the mathematics teachers motivated them and they turned to help in case of difficulties in the mathematics course. It was seen with this research that the fact that the classes, materials and homework given to the students during the pandemic period were not effective in taking private lessons. As a result of the research, it was seen that the motivation of the teacher was not an important factor in students' efforts to understand mathematics. In addition to this result, the motivation of the mathematics teacher to learn the class during the pandemic period did not affect the students' private lessons. In addition, it was revealed that the teachers' motivation for the students does not mean that the students will make more effort to understand the class, and that this is not a reason for students to take private lessons.
O Papel da Ocitocina na Profilaxia da Hemorragia Pós-Parto em Locais com Recursos Limitados
Authors: Ferreira Inês , Reynolds Ana
Published: February 2021

Introdução: A hemorragia pós-parto mantém-se como uma das principais causas de morte materna a nível global. A ocitocina é o uterotónico de eleição na profilaxia desta complicação. Contudo, a sua utilização em locais com recursos limitados associa-se a constrangimentos de foro clínico, político, económico e cultural. O objetivo deste artigo é rever o uso da ocitocina na profilaxia da hemorragia pós-parto em locais com recursos limitados.Material e Métodos: Foi efetuada uma revisão da literatura sobre o tema, selecionando-se 24 artigos.Resultados: A informação foi organizada em sete secções: a avaliação da eficácia da ocitocina relativamente a outros uterotónicos, a utilização da ocitocina em partos domiciliários, a capacitação dos profissionais de saúde, a qualidade da ocitocina disponibilizada nestes locais, as novas formulações, os riscos inerentes à utilização de uterotónicos e as políticas de saúde adotadas.Discussão: Apesar dos progressos alcançados, verificámos que o acesso à profilaxia da hemorragia pós-parto com ocitocina em locais com recursos limitados está aquém do desejável. As principais dificuldades encontradas foram o défice de profissionais de saúde qualificados na administração da ocitocina, as deficiências na qualidade do fármaco e a desadequação das normas de orientação clínica existentes.Conclusão: Para reduzir a mortalidade materna por hemorragia pós-parto em locais de recursos limitados é imprescindível melhorar a capacitação dos profissionais, implementar boas práticas no uso de uterotónicos, otimizar a gestão de recursos e transpor as barreiras culturais impeditivas da procura dos serviços de saúde.

Emerging Countries: New Centres of Power or Colossi with Feet of Clay?
Authors: Krasil’shchikov V.
Published: February 2021

The paper is based upon a review of three new books devoted to the big emerging countries in Latin America and Asia. One of these books was written by the Russian scholar Lev Klochkovskii. The authorship of two other books belongs to Pierre Salama, a well-known French specialist in developing countries. The starting point for consideration of the mentioned works is the fact of convergence between the North and the South. This convergence involves quantitative economic indicators as well as qualitative aspects of development: the rise of innovations and R&D centres, enterprises outputting high-tech goods, etc. All these and some other trends require revision of old concepts of “centre” and “periphery” in the world system. However, the countries under consideration have entered the period of slowdown, and risk to fall into a middle income trap. It means that their development models have been exhausting and need to be profoundly changed. In the case of Latin American countries, the difficulties arisen recently are aggravated by the impact of China. The manufacturing industries in Brazil and Mexico loose competiveness under pressure of goods imported from China. It brings about a relative de-industrialisation of Latin American economies. At the same time, the recent development in China becomes increasingly resembling to the Brazilian situation of the 1970s when the economic growth was mostly advantageous for the upper, upper middle and, partly, middle classes. It led to the deepening of social differentiation and, thereby, restrained the internal market. This trend can be interpreted as “Latin Americanisation” of China. Can the big emerging countries change trajectories of their development? If not, they will appear as the colossi with feet of clay rather than the real centres of economic power.
Patterns of National Integration in Response to Growing Immigration
Authors: Zaika K.
Published: February 2021

The paper summarizes immigration policy models in Germany, France, the UK, the USA and Canada in response to the growing immigration flows since the second half of the XXth century. By contrast with “traditional” nation states of Western Europe, the USA and Canada have developed on the basis of the settler colonies having melted immigrants of various ethnic and cultural origins. The USA and Canada have been prioritizing immigration as a factor of their national development. Although public culture in these immigration states has been developing on some specific cultural patterns, American and Canadian societies have not generated the concepts and perceptions of an “ethno-cultural” core of the nation as such. One of the reasons for current integration issues in the West is the struggle of immigrants for their collective cultural rights in host societies. Differences in political culture between Western European states and immigration states (the USA and Canada in this case) determine the gap in the institutionalization of collective rights for immigrants and, correspondingly, specific character of integration issues. Transition to the pluralistic model of national integration in the USA and Canada is determined by the following factors. First, due to mass immigration, there emerged liberalization of immigration policies. Secondly, in the post-war period, political cultures in liberal democracies witnessed a pronounced republican tendency, due to the ideological influence generated in times of The African-American Civil Rights Movement.
Former Socialistic Countries: Integration into the World Economic Connections
Authors: Feigin G.
Published: February 2021

The article deals with the integration of the former socialist countries into the system of global economic transactions. The most important features and trends of this process during the last three decades are identified. The author makes a comparison between the foreign economic policy within the planned economy and that within the market economy. On the basic of this comparison two elements of market reforms (internal and external) are defined. The external element is considered as the integration into the world economic connections. The basic topic is the reform of foreign economic policy during the stage of transformation which began at the end of 1980th (in China at the end of 1970th). The author focuses on two indicators: international trade and foreign direct investments. The different groups of countries such as CIS, Central and Eastern Europe, Asia, China and Russia are considered. Dynamics of volumes of the international trade and foreign direct investments are analyzed and compared. The research covers practically the whole period of market reforms (until 2012). For identification of some trends the author considers and compares the data relating to 1993 (beginning of market reform period in most countries), 2000 and 2012. At the end a general assessment of the current positions of the former socialistic countries is proposed. The author identifies the key trends and gives explanations of them. The most important conclusion is that only China has become the important “global player”. Other former socialist countries still have major deficits that have to be overcome.
Latin American Integration and Extra-Region Cooperation. Prospects for Russia
Authors: Razumovskii D.
Published: February 2021

Extra-regional contacts of Latin American integration unions have been actively developing over last decades. Generally it was the effect of a globalization process. Regional platforms have been created for multi-format cooperation both with separate countries and unions. The motives of inter-union cooperation are the efforts of developing countries to strengthen their bargain power and the requirement to expand export markets. The experience of such partnership between Latin America and different regions allows to define several models characterized by different mechanisms and instruments of a dialogue development (LAC–EU, LAC–US and “South–South” cooperation). There are different approaches to economic integration with extra-regional partners among Latin American unions and countries. A number of them follow open and flexible trade policy, while other establish preferential blocks with restrictions on bilateral trade negotiations. Until now Russia preferred to develop bilateral relations with its key allies in Latin America without building close ties with integration unions. But current geopolitical and economic situation encourages Russia to establish such partnership agreements with regional organizations, which are the rising power on the regional and global scene. Without it the full development of economic and political ties between both regions and their association on the international scene would be complicated. The fact that Eurasian Economic Commission recently launched the negotiations process with MERCOSUR demonstrates that Latin American unions start to be considered as prospective partners. In the future, Eurasian Economic Commission can serve as the main platform for bi-regional partnership.
Treating Neurodegenerative Disease with Antioxidants: Efficacy of the Bioactive Phenol Resveratrol and Mitochondrial-Targeted MitoQ and SkQ
Authors: Shinn Lindsey J. , Lagalwar Sarita
Published: February 2021

Growing evidence from neurodegenerative disease research supports an early pathogenic role for mitochondrial dysfunction in affected neurons that precedes morphological and functional deficits. Resulting oxidative stress and respiratory malfunction contribute to neuronal toxicity and may enhance the vulnerability of neurons to continued assault by aggregation-prone proteins. Consequently, targeting mitochondria with antioxidant therapy may be a non-invasive, inexpensive, and viable means of strengthening neuronal health and slowing disease progression, thereby extending quality of life. We review the pre-clinical and clinical findings available to date of the natural bioactive phenol resveratrol and two synthetic mitochondrial-targeted antioxidants MitoQ and SkQ.

Abstract: Nonlinear spectrum distortions are caused by the peculiarities of the operation of charge-coupled device elements (CCD), in which the signal exposition time (TINT) is one of the significant parameters. A change of TINT on a CCD leads to a nonlinear distortion of the resulting spectrum. Nonlinear distortion of the spectrum, in its turn, leads to errors in determining the central wavelength of Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) and spectrally sensitive sensors, which, in general, negatively affects the accuracy of measuring systems. The paper proposes an algorithm for correcting nonlinear distortions of the spectrum obtained on a spectrum analyzer using CCD as a receiver. It is shown that preliminary calibration of the optical spectrum analyzer with subsequent mathematical processing of the signal makes it possible to make corrections in the resulting spectrum, thereby leveling the errors caused by measurements at different TINT.

We report on the design, characterization and validation of a spherical irradiation system for inactivating SARS-CoV-2, based on UV-C 275 nm LEDs. The system is designed to maximize ir-radiation intensity and uniformity, and can be used for irradiating a volume of 18 liters. To this aim: (i) several commercially available LEDs have been acquired and analyzed; (ii) a complete optical study has been carried out in order to optimize the efficacy of the system. (iii) The re-sulting prototype has been characterized optically, and tested for the inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 for different exposure times, doses and surface types. Results indicate that a 99.9% inactivation can be reached after 1 minute of treatment with a dose of 83.1 J/m2.
