Published: June 2024

Excitation of iron pentacarbonyl [Fe(CO)5], a prototypical photocatalyst, at 266 nm causes sequential loss of two CO ligands in the gas phase, creating catalytically active, unsaturated iron carbonyls. Despite numerous studies, major aspects of its ultrafast photochemistry remain unresolved because the early excited-state dynamics have so far eluded spectroscopic observation. This has led to the long-held assumption that ultrafast dissociation of gas-phase Fe(CO)5 proceeds exclusively on the singlet manifold. Herein, we present a combined experimental-theoretical study employing ultrafast extreme ultraviolet transient absorption spectroscopy near the Fe M2 ,3-edge, which features spectral evolution on 100-fs and 3-ps time scales, alongside high-level electronic structure theory, which enables characterization of the molecular geometries and electronic states involved in the ultrafast photodissociation of Fe(CO)5. We assign the 100-fs evolution to spectroscopic signatures associated with intertwined structural and electronic dynamics on the singlet metal-centered states during first CO loss, and the 3-ps evolution to the competing dissociation of Fe(CO)4 along the lowest singlet and triplet surfaces to form Fe(CO)3. Calculations of transient spectra in both singlet and triplet states as well as spin-orbit coupling constants along key structural pathways, provide evidence for intersystem crossing to the triplet ground state of Fe(CO)4. Thus, our work presents the first spectroscopic detection of transient excited states during ultrafast photodissociation of gas-phase Fe(CO)5 and challenges the long-standing assumption that triplet states do not play a role in the ultrafast dynamics.

Silicon-sulfur (Si-S) batteries represent a promising energy storage solution due to their high theoretical energy density. However, practical applications have been hindered by substantial volume expansion of silicon and the dissolution of sulfur species. Here, we combine a triazine-based graphdiyne-coated silicon (TzG@Si) anode and a sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (S@PAN) cathode into a cell that uniquely mitigates the volume expansion of silicon and prevents sulfur migration. Notably, the integration of TzG@Si and S@PAN results in the formation of a stable, LiF-rich solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) on both electrodes, significantly enhancing the cycling stability. The optimized cell exhibits an energy density of 414.3 Wh kg-1 based on electrodes’ mass (Si anode and S@PAN cathode), with a capacity retention exceeding 80% after 400 cycles. Moreover, we explore the lithiation mechanisms within the S@PAN cathode, revealing that controlled voltage windows can further improve performance by preventing deep discharge. Our findings suggest that by engineering the electrodes, this Si-S battery system can achieve long cycle life and high energy density. This work not only advances the understanding of Si-S battery chemistry but also highlights the importance of synergistic electrode and electrolyte design in developing practical solutions for high-energy-density batteries.

Published: June 2024

Recycling of epoxy composites, one of the most widely utilized thermoset plastics, is of importance for achieving circular economy as demand for the lightweight materials in the field of sustainable technologies is soaring. Although catalytic hydrogenolysis of epoxy resins provides a promising approach to recover valuable fillers and phenolic compounds from the composites, there is a lack of a reusable heterogeneous catalyst for this purpose. Here, we report a robust Ni−Pd bimetallic nanoparticles supported on CeO2 (Ni−Pd/CeO2) for the hydrogenolysis of epoxy resins under mild conditions (180 °C, 1 atm of H2). Mechanistic studies revealed that Pd-induced reduction of Ni2+ to Ni0 is the key for the high efficiency of the bimetallic catalyst. Benefiting from its heterogeneous nature, Ni−Pd/CeO2 can be easily recycled and reused for several times. The catalyst is also applicable to decomposition of carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resins to recover carbon fibers and bisphenol A, indicating the potential application of our catalyst system toward recycling of epoxy composites.

Audit of the use of budget funds and state property: theoretical-organizational principles and results
Authors: Lukanowska Iryna , Nipialidi Olga , Bernas Olga
Published: June 2024

The article contains a critical analysis of state audit activities and is aimed at developing recommendations for its improvement.
Based on the comparison, the authors identified the versatility of the approach to the definition of the concept of state audit, its purpose and tasks, justified the expediency of their coordination and bringing it into line with modern legislative and practical requirements. The structural analysis made it possible to evaluate the constituent elements of the State Audit Service of Ukraine and point out the possibilities of their optimization in the post-war period.
The analysis, including graphic, was used to assess the effectiveness, quality and other parameters of the activity of this controlling state institution. As a result, it was found that for January–August 2023: the largest share in the general list of control procedures is the monitoring of state procurement (both in terms of amounts and the number of entities subject to control); the most violations were found in budgetary institutions. The most common violation in the analyzed period was lack of financial resources.
The quality and effectiveness of the activities of the State Audit Service is indicated by the state of taking measures to eliminate the detected violations and the amount of compensations made. In 2023, reimbursements amounted to almost 7 times more than in 2022. The role of the State Audit Service in this process is that it and its bodies made 137 proposals for the application of financial sanctions to violators.
Analytical research, grouping and generalization contributed to the identification and differentiation of four groups of shortcomings that have a negative impact on the implementation of state audit: the absence of proper legal regulation of the periodicity and procedure of conducting control measures; insufficient coordination of activities of control bodies; absence of unified methodological foundations of state audit; imperfect settlement of the issue of taking into account the results of internal control when conducting a state audit.

of selected Philippine soybean (Glycine max) genotypes
Authors: Esguerra C.J. , de los Reyes A.M. , Ocampo E.T.M.
Published: June 2024

Soybeans contain flavonoids and anthocyanins that are associated with health benefits
related to antioxidant activities. In this study, the total flavonoid content (TFC), total
anthocyanin content (TAC), and the relative antioxidant activities (AOA) of selected
Philippine soybean genotypes were screened in order to select and recommend promising
genotypes that may be used for further breeding and varietal development. Using the
aluminum trichloride method, the genotypes POP 1-44 (TFC = 0.619 g/100 g), PHL
29272 (TFC = 0.616 g/100 g), and Tiwala 6 (TFC = 0.608 g/100 g) were determined to
have the highest calculated TFC values. pH differential and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl
(DPPH) assays distinguished all three black-seeded soybean genotypes PHL 29272 (TAC
= 177.010 mg/100 g; AOA = 24.476%), PHL 29502 (TAC = 143.750 mg/100 g; AOA =
25.745%), and PHL 29552 (TAC = 123.572 mg/100 g; AOA = 29.297%) with the highest
anthocyanin contents and relative antioxidant activities. Genotype PHL 29272 was
consistently found among those with the highest results for the three tests. Significant
correlations (α = 0.05) were found between flavonoid content and antioxidant activity (p <
0.0001), and between anthocyanin content and antioxidant activity (p < 0.0001). In
conclusion, the study was able to identify genotypes that can be recommended as the most
suitable candidates for soybean breeding activities.
Physicochemical and sensory analysis of mangrove seed coffee (Sonneratia
ovata) compare with robusta coffee from Indonesian origin
Authors: Suryono M. , Sumartini
Published: June 2024

Coffee is a global drink for millennials. Indonesia is one of the countries with the most
significant coffee consumption in the world. The main problem with coffee consumption
is the caffeine content, many researchers are looking for alternative coffee drinks that do
not contain caffeine, one of which is mangrove fruit seeds. Caffeine can be removed
during roasting, but over-roasting produces unwanted sensory impacts on coffee. This
study aimed to determine mangrove coffee beans' sensory characteristics and caffeine
content to compare with robusta coffee as commercial coffee. In addition, it is also
necessary to monitor changes in the properties of the mixture of Robusta coffee beans and
mangrove seeds during the roasting process in real-time. The method used was a
randomized block design, using two factors, commercial coffee (C) and mangrove seed
coffee (M), and 3 test levels, light (L) at 193°C to 199°C, medium (M) at 204°C and dark
roast (D) at 213°C to 221°C. Analysis of data using Analysis of variance (ANOVA).
Significantly different test results were then tested using Duncan's advanced test. Data
processing was carried out using SPSS Version 28 software. The results showed that the
sensory characteristics of commercial coffee (Robusta) were preferable to mangrove
coffee, but the impact of caffeine could be eliminated by consuming mangrove coffee.
The degree of roasting greatly affects coffee's sensory and chemical quality, with the best
results obtained in commercial coffee roasted at a medium level (M) at 204°C. The
comparison results showed that the characteristics of coffee between commercial coffee
(Robusta) and mangrove coffee have phenol content, total acid, and proximate and
sensory values close to commercial coffee. However, the caffeine content is not found in
mangrove coffee, so coffee connoisseurs can use mangrove coffee because it can be used
as an alternative to coffee drinks without giving the effect of caffeine addiction.

Qardhul Hasan Sebagai Pembiayaan Sosial Dalam Mengatasi Kemiskinan
Authors: Fauzi Muchamad Rizky , Alfarda Wahidatun Nafiah , Supriyanto Supriyanto
Published: June 2024

Qardhul Hasan as Social Financing in Combating Poverty. The well-being of the people is the primary objective of the establishment of a nation. However, for developing countries, it is still a homework in tackling poverty. The Islamic Shariah manages poverty primarily to reduce poverty with funds derived from zakat, infaq, and sedekah. Indonesia, as the country with the largest number of Islamic believers in the world, has the potential to have large funds for zakat, infaq, and sedekah, but the current management is still not at its maximum. This research is aimed at exploring the literature on financing Qardhul Hasan as a means of combating poverty. Among them is an increase in profits of up to six times. Besides, there are other advantages, such as improved customer skills. With increased sharia financial inclusion, financing for the community can improve the well-being of the community and reduce the poverty rate.
Autistic Mental Schema and the Graphical User Interface circa 1968
Authors: Lockett William
Published: June 2024

Evelyn Fox Keller calls the form of organisms a “devious” problem. How and why do such forms arise? Models, Keller argues, are necessary inroads to these questions. The speculative-propositional mode of computational and mathematical models permits scientists to question the physical and mental processes that shape matter into elegant form despite the “void” of certainty opened by the complexity of vitality. This article documents the use of the LOGO programming language in model-mind making as well as in experimental coding pedagogies for special needs students circa 1968. It provides a historical and philosophical background for interpreting clinical observations of two young autistic students, David and Joey. The article demonstrates that the designers of LOGO understood their design choices in terms of philosophical debates about the nature of purposive orientations in organisms. The author argues that cautious engagement with those debates—guided by Keller’s philosophy of models and Catherine Malabou’s understanding of Immanuel Kant’s concept of schema—can open for humanists an interpretive project aimed at elucidating the historical meaning of the graphical user interface. Insights into the aesthetics of resistance from autistic rhetorician Remi Yergeau and philosopher-poet Fred Moten allow neuroqueer ephemera, lingering in the archives of LOGO, to illuminate a politicization of mental variety nascent in digital screens.
The Plague Check: Population Culling as Pandemic Realpolitik
Authors: Ghosh Bishnupriya
Published: June 2024

The COVID pandemic presented a bioeconomic opportunity to re-entrench extant differences (racial, sexual, ethnic, religious, or otherwise) and to escalate the ongoing engineering of imagined communities. This paper examines how this general paradigm unfolded in India’s lockdown of March 2020, and the consequent “long walk home” for migrant laborers. Narendra Modi’s decision exemplifies an autoimmune drive that splits the national body-politic into a visible citizenry, groomed as electorate, and the teeming masses, marked as threat and slated for expulsion from a unified body politic. Such a drive draws on moral and science-based sanctions for rationalizing what Christina Sharpe has named premature and preventable deaths. The moral sanction draws psychic force from dominant cultural symbols that mystify, sometimes sacralize, the body politic (Modi’s “Lakshman Rekha metaphor), while science-based biosecurity measures sort and segregate populations for the management of health. Plotting Malthusian historical resonances between war, famine, and disease, I characterize the Modi regime’s readiness to countenance migrant deaths as a “population culling” that is, unfortunately, an iterative feature in the archives of global pandemics.
Resistance of Lactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 Encapsulated in Microcrystalline Cellulose from Palm Leaf Waste to Acidic Conditions Across Various Temperatures and Storage Durations"
Authors: Firdaus Royyan , Kasim A , Kasim F
Published: June 2024

Lactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 is a probiotic bacterium with limited tolerance to acidic environments, bile fluids, and high temperatures, necessitating physical protection via microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) encapsulation derived from palm leaf waste. This study aimed to evaluate the resistance of encapsulated probiotic bacteria under acidic conditions at various temperatures and storage durations to identify the optimal storage temperature. A factorial complete randomized design (CRD) with two factors was employed: storage temperature (room temperature, 4°C, and -18°C) and storage time (0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42 days). The results indicated that storage time and the interaction between storage time and temperature significantly affected the total lactic acid bacteria (LAB) count. However, temperature alone and its interaction with storage time did not significantly impact the percentage reduction in the number of encapsulated Lactobacillus fermentum InaCC B1295 at pH 2. Overall, encapsulated bacteria stored at various temperatures demonstrated comparable bacterial resistance..

Authors: Sadiq Sanusi
Published: June 2024

The present study empirically determined the prospects of rice value chain of paddy processors in Jigawa State of Nigeria. In spite of the role of small-scale paddy rice processors as the main engine of growth of upstream rice value chain; growth and development of rural economy in the study area, literature is undaunted with paucity of empirical information on the prospects of rice processing value chain in the study area. The study utilized cross-sectional data elicited through a well-structured questionnaire from a total of 200 processors (133 par-boilers and 67 millers) selected through a multi-stage sampling technique. An easy cost-route approach was used for data collection during the 2022 processing period and the collected data were analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Based on the empirical evidence, it is established that rice processing potential has not been fully exploited in the study area. In addition, it is evident that rice processing enterprise not only being viable and profitable; it holds a good prospect in the supply value chain of rice in the study area. However, for the prospects in the supply value chain to hold well, the target actors must adopt a defensive mechanism as inferred by the space matrix.

Published: June 2024

The aim of the research was to determine the diversity, distribution, dominance, and yield loss of corn due to competition from broadleaf weeds. Descriptive research method with direct survey techniques of research objects. Data were collected using 10 sample plots measuring 1 m2, which were placed using random sampling. Observation parameters include the population and dry biomass weight of weeds and corn. The data was analyzed descriptively and comparatively by calculating density, frequency, and dominance to obtain an important value index and summation diminance ratio (SDR). The results of the research showed that 14 species of broad-leaved weeds were found with high species diversity, distribution, dominance, and abundance indices. The competitiveness and relative weighted dominance of six weed species, namely Amaranthus spinusus, Amaranthus gracilis, Synedrella nodiliflora, Acalypha indica, Ageratum conyzoides, and Alternanthera philoxeroides, are higher than those of other weed species, causing corn yield losses of 5.56%–21.90%. Therefore, these six weed species must be controlled.

Masyarakat di Desa Pringgajurang Utara sebagian besar berprofesi sebagai petani dan peternak. Mereka menggantungkan perekonomiannya dengan memanfaatkan hasil bumi yang ada dan membudidayakan jamur tiram. Salah satu pelaku usaha kecil yang fokus pada budidaya jamur tiram adalah Kelompok Wanita Tani (KWT) Keselet Karya. KWT ini sudah membudidayakan jamur tiram selama dua tahun terakhir dan belum melakukan pengembangan diversifikasi produk olahan jamur tiram. Masalah yang dihadapi KWT ini adalah kurangnya keterampilan, pengetahuan, dan pengalaman mengenai pengolahan jamur tiram. Mereka menjual jamur tiram dalam kondisi basah dengan harga jual yang rendah, sedangkan daya tahan dalam kondisi basah sangat singkat. Oleh karena itu, tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah untuk mendampingi KWT Keselet Karya dalam keripik jamur tiram. Metode yang digunakan dalam melaksanakan pengabdian ini adalah partisipatif interaktif di mana peserta dilibatkan secara langsung dan didampingi secara intensif. Tahapan pelaksanaan pengabdian terdiri atas tahap survei dan persiapan, tahap pelaksanaan dan tahap evaluasi. Kegiatan pengabdian ini berjalan dengan lancar dan telah diikuti oleh seluruh peserta. Peserta telah diberikan pendampingan dalam mengolah keripik jamur tiram oleh tim pengabdian, sehingga KWT Keselet Karya diharapkan telah mampu memproduksi keripik jamur tiram secara mandiri. Hasil lembar survei awal dan akhir menunjukkan adanya perbedaan pemahaman peserta setelah mengikuti pendampingan ini. Peserta telah memiliki pemahaman mengenai pengolahan keripik jamur tiram dan telah memiliki keterampilan dalam pengolahannya. Peserta juga telah dibekali resep dan langkah-langkah pembuatan keripik jamur tiram agar mereka tidak kawatir apabila resep dan langkah-langkahnya terlupa.

Published: June 2024

Swarm robotics is a distinctive type of multi-robotic system that relies on local communication among the swarm members to generate a desired global behaviour. This implies a lack of global information, requiring robots to sense and communicate using sensors and actuators located on their bodies. Consequently, the robots within the swarm must leverage collective intelligence to solve the problem at hand, as no individual robot can accomplish the task independently. This article provides an overview of swarm robotics in general, highlighting its characteristics that distinguish it from other multi-robotic systems and simultaneously serve as motivation to adopt a swarm robotics approach. A closer examination of collective decision making within swarm robotics and its design problem also provided, classifying design methods into manual design and automatic approaches. The most commonly used automatic approaches to design collective decision making in swarm robotics are explained, along with a mention of the benefits and drawbacks of such approaches. However, this review does not cover aspects such as the swarm collective behaviours – except collective decision making – and the swarm robotics tasks

Fine Dust (FD) in the respiratory air generates a variety of human disease issues throughout the earth. This study aimed to investigate whether (1) Tussilago farfara extracts (TF) decrease neutrophils accumulation, typical pathological features, and goblet cell hyperplasia in mice following exposure to fine dust (FD); (2) inflammatory cytokines result from FD exposure; and (3) asymmetric dimethyl-arginine (ADMA) and symmetric dimethyl-arginine (SDMA) levels in the mice following exposure to FD. Seven-week-old male Balb/c mice (n = 5/group) were instilled two times by intra-nasal-trachea (INT) injection for 3 days and 6 days to the mice four groups; normal, control, FD + dexamethasone (Dexa, positive control), and FD + TF groups. TF suspended in 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was administered orally to the mice daily for 10 days (100 mg/kg). Neutrophil accumulation, typical pathological features, goblet cell hyperplasia, ADMA, and SDMA levels were assessed on day 10 in FD-induced mice. Results indicated FD significantly reduced neutrophil accumulation in BALF, typical pathological features containing goblet cell hyperplasia in lung tissues, and inflammatory cytokines [interleukin (IL)-17 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) and C-X-C motif chemokine 1 (CXCL-1)]. Furthermore, TF significantly decreased levels of elevated ADMA and SDMA by FD exposure. Collectively, TF decreased the counts of neutrophils in BALF, histological changes in lung tissues due to downstream secretion of inflammatory cytokines, and levels of ADMA and SDMA. Therefore, TF may be a potential therapeutics for treating FD-associated diseases.

Monitoring the trend of malaria cases over a period of time is very useful to evaluate successes of malaria control programme in the endemic area. This study evaluated the trend of malaria cases from 2013 to 2022 from four major towns in Ekiti State, Nigeria. Clinical data involving malaria cases of outpatient visits to some hospitals and health centres from 2013 to 2022 in the four towns of Ekiti State were collected for statistical analysis. Data were analyzed with SPSS version 29 with probability value of < 0.05 as significant. Results showed that 162,077 outpatients visited the selected hospitals and health centres of the four towns from 2013 to 2022. The overall percentage of malaria cases in the study area was 21.3 % with no significant difference (P = 0.001) from the four towns. There was a gradual decrease in malaria cases from 2013 to 2021 among outpatients who were not pregnant women. Malaria cases among pregnant women however showed a slight increase from 2013 to 2022. If the control measures that caused a decline of malaria cases in this study area is sustained for a good period of time, there is tendency that malaria is eliminated from the area and possibly in the whole Ekiti State.
