Published: August 2023

Lignocellulose as carbon source and oleaginous microorganisms including yeast, bacterium and fungi, has been studied extensively for oil and biodiesel production, however several bottlenecks and challenges still remain stuck biodiesel production with oleaginous seeds vegetable and commercial oil production from oleaginous microorganisms actually is not cost-effective and sustainable. Recently electric vehicles global market has increased, but some human activities requires heavy good vehicles for aviation and shipping, and biodiesel is necessary for powering those vehicles. In first stage of oil bioprocess is to get rich-sugars liquor from lignocellulose, but is highly difficult because lignin affect enzyme activity and oleaginous microorganism growth due to is a toxic compound, then hydrolysis is a process that easily could be fall out by several changes in adequate conditions that sometimes is almost impossible has the control as the strain ability to produce enzymes or cellulose polymerization degree by origin of lignocellulose. The oil production in the bioprocess is a challenge too, because fermentations of oleaginous microorganisms is aerobic this mean need constant oxygen supply consuming energy, besides lipid production is low and the lipid yield decrease in the extraction process. In this small review discuss about those troubles related to sustainable lipid production with oleaginous microorganisms and lignocellulose as carbon source.
Synthesis of Secondary Amines via Self-Limiting Alkylation of N-Aminopyridinium Salts
Authors: Roychowdhury Pritam , Waheed Saim , Sengupta Uddalak , Herrera Roberto , Powers David
Published: August 2023

Partial amine alkylation to prepare secondary amines is challenging due to the enhanced N-nucleophilicity that accompanies alkylation. Here we introduce N-aminopyridinium salts as ammonia surrogates for the synthesis of secondary amines via self-limiting alkylation chemistry. A one-pot protocol based on N-aminopyridinium arylation followed by N-alkylation and in situ depyridylation provides access to aryl alkyl amines. The method is compatible with complex molecular settings and overcomes classical challenges in selective amine alkylation by accomplishing alkylation via transient pyridinium ylide intermediates. These findings both establish N-aminopyridinium salts as ammonia synthons and provide a new disconnection for the construction of structurally complex secondary amines.
Using non-adiabatic excitation transfer for signal transmission between molecular logic gates
Authors: Martynov Arthur I. , Belov Aleksandr S.
Published: August 2023

Molecular logic gates (MLG) are molecules which perform logic operations. Their integration into a computing system is a very difficult task which remains to be addressed. The problem lies in the field of signal exchange between the gates within the system. We propose using non-adiabatic excitation transfer between the gates to address this problem while absorption and fluorescence are left to communicate with external devices. Excitation transfer was studied using the modified Bixon-Jortner- Plotnikov theory on the example of the 3H-thioxanthene-TTF-dibenzo-BODIPY covalently linked triade. Several designs of the molecule were studied in vacuum and cyclohexane. It was found that the molecular logic system has to be planar and rigid to isolate radiative interfaces from other gates. Functioning of these gates is based on dark πσ∗-states in contrast to bright ππ∗-states of radiative interfaces. There are no fundamental difference between ππ∗ → πσ∗ and ππ∗ → ππ∗ transitions for cases when an exciton hopes from one gate to another. The rates of such transitions depend only on an energy gap between states and a distance between gates. A circuit is highly sensitive to the choice of solvent which could rearrange its state structure thereby altering its behavior. According to the obtained results, non-adiabatic transfer can be considered as one of the possible ways for transmitting a signal between MLGs.

Authors: Замула Ірина Валеріївна , Травін Віталій Вікторович , Кирилюк Дарина Русланівна
Published: August 2023

Екотуризм є важливим напрямом розвитку туризму в Україні. Країна має багату природну спадщину, що приваблює туристів з усього світу. Проте екотуризм в Україні, на відміну від європейських країн, у довоєнний період не мав достатньої уваги від уряду та бізнесу, що затримувало розвиток цієї галузі. Для забезпечення розвитку екотуризму в Україні у післявоєнний період необхідно створити нову та розвивати існуючу туристичну інфраструктуру в районах з високим потенціалом для цього напряму. Важливо розвивати туристичні послуги, що сприяють екологічному розвитку регіонів, наприклад, екологічне харчування та використання екологічних матеріалів у будівництві. Одним із шляхів розвитку екотуризму в Україні є збереження та захист природних зон, що мають високу екологічну цінність. Відновлення та збільшення площі природної зеленої зони може стати ключовим фактором у привабленні туристів. Також важливо здійснювати екологічний контроль за розвитком туризму, щоб забезпечити збереження природних ресурсів та біорізноманіття. Важливою також є співпраця з міжнародними організаціями, що займаються екотуризмом, для впровадження міжнародних стандартів і рекомендацій щодо розвитку цієї галузі. Крім того, важливим фактором є залучення інвестицій для розвитку екотуризму, що дозволить створити нові робочі місця та забезпечити стабільний ріст туристичної індустрії.
Визначення та сутність поняття «дефолт» у науковій літературі
Authors: Перестюк Інга Миколаївна
Published: August 2023

У пропонованій статті автором досліджено, що сьогодні дефолт – це ситуація, коли боржник відмовляється виконувати свої зобов’язання щодо обслуговування боргу в повному обсязі. Встановлено, що ризик дефолту є найбільш серйозним як для кредиторів, так і для держави, оскільки масштаб несприятливих наслідків для обох сторін кредитних відносин є найбільшим у разі дефолту. Встановлено, що причиною дефолту може бути як суверенна неплатоспроможність, так і списання зовнішнього боргу. Зазначається, що анулювання зовнішнього боргу – це ситуація, коли держава-позичальник відмовляється повністю або частково виконувати свої зобов’язання, а також вживає інших законодавчих заходів з еквівалентним ефектом, тобто оголошує дефолт як стратегічне рішення. Визначено, що дефолт можна знайти в законодавстві США лише на рівні штату. Зроблено висновок, що під неплатоспроможністю розуміється об’єктивна неспроможність держави або її уряду обслуговувати чи погашати свої зовнішні боргові зобов’язання у встановлені угодами строки у зв’язку зі збільшенням заборгованості уряду країни до неприйнятного для економіки рівня та таким чином, потрібне певне зниження боргового навантаження або реструктуризація боргу.

Utilizing digitally mediated warm-up activities for developing intercultural literacy in young EFL students: An exploratory study
Authors: Pham Linh
Published: August 2023

According to recent research, incorporating intercultural elements into digital learning resources used in English-language activities is considered one of the most efficacious approaches for improving intercultural literacy among young learners. However, there is limited knowledge available regarding the utilization of digital materials in developing intercultural literacy during lead-in phrases for young learners. The present study aims to fill this gap by investigating how technology can be used to create intercultural literacy among young EFL students in typical Vietnamese international elementary schools during EFL warm-up activities. This study was carried out in three stages: (1) an informal interview conducted by the researcher with two EFL teachers from two different internal schools about their teaching contexts and knowledge of intercultural literacy; (2) sixteen observations of English lessons over a semester using warm-up activities to enhance young learners’ intercultural literacy (n=65), and (3) in-depth interviews with the same two teachers. The teachers’ interactionally oriented narratives derived from the interviews and the intervened-lesson observations in their classrooms were thematized to specify the types of warm-up activities using digital resources and their functions on activating young learners’ prior knowledge of intercultural features. Meanwhile, the observation checklist was employed to determine whether these embedded features had made changes to the teachers’ teaching methodology. The paper also discussed the implications for enhancing EFL young learners’ intercultural literacy via digital learning paths informed by the teacher’s intercultural language communicative teaching approach.

The influence of cyber security on financial fraud in the Nigerian banking industry
Authors: JACOB OBAFEMI FATOKI
Published: August 2023

The study looked at Financial Institution in Nigeria for how cyber security affects financial fraud in Nigerian banks. The study focused on the following topics: the types of electronic frauds committed in the banking industry, the reasons why cyber fraud occurs in banks, the difficulties in preventing cyber fraud in banks, the impact of cyber fraud on Nigerian banks, and potential solutions for preventing cyber fraud in banks. The two hypotheses that the study is based on. Six Nigeria Banks made up the study's population, which used a survey research design. 557 bank employees were sampled using multistage sampling techniques. The bank staff's responses were gathered using a structured questionnaire, which was then, analyzed using the SPSS statistical package for social science version 27. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the objectives, and multiple regression and Kendal Tau B were used to test the hypotheses. The study's findings indicated that computer viruses, hacking/cracking, phishing, pharming, and accounting fraud by bank employees were the main types of cyber fraud in the banking system. The causes of cybercrime in banks included a lack of line manager or senior manager oversight on deviations from existing electronic processes or controls, current business pressure to meet set targets, collusion between employees and outside parties, insufficient data encryption, the use of third-party services, and parodying. Similarly, the study's findings showed that the challenges impeding the effort to stop cyber fraud in Nigeria's banking system included a lack of standards and national central control, a lack of infrastructure, the internet's vulnerability, a lack of national functional databases, and inadequate awareness by bank customers. A security audit, antivirus and antimalware software, the use of multi-factor authentication, the use of biometrics, and automatic logout were found to be solutions to cybercrime in banks. The findings also showed that financial loss, decreased productivity, and vulnerability of banks' Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems and networks were effects of cybercrime on banks in Nigeria. According to the study's findings, banks' cyberspace security cannot be overextended in Nigeria, so necessary precautions should be taken to reduce cybercrime in Nigeria Banks. The study recommended that Nigeria Banks implement stringent measures to monitor staff activities, particularly in the confidentiality of customer information, cyber security audit be performed by financial institution regularly, sensitization of bank customers, and Multi-factor authentication, biometrics and automatic log out, and strong firewall should be adopted by Nigeria Financial Institutions.
Biosorption of Fe (II) and Pb (II) on unmodified Senna tora: Isotherm and kinetic modeling
Authors: Tatah Verwiyeh Silas  , Asuelimen Steve Osagie
Published: August 2023

Contamination of environment by heavy metals has become a major concern worldwide. The role of conventional methods in remediating heavy metals has become ineffective and costly. Therefore, it becomes imperative to explore bioremediation using a cost effective, efficient and environmentally friendly alternative method of removing heavy metals. In this study, the adsorption behaviour of Senna tora, a low-cost adsorbents, with respect to Fe(II) and Pb(II) ions, has been studied in order to consider its application to the treatment of wastewater. The physicochemical properties of the unmodified Senna tora were predetermined. The batch experimental method was employed: parameters such as pH, contact time, dosage and initial metal concentration were studied. The influence of the pH of the metal ion solutions on the uptake levels of the metal ions by the adsorbent used was carried out between pH 4 and 10. The optimum pH for both Fe (II) and Pb(II) removals by Senna tora was 7. An equilibrium contact time of 60 min was required for the adsorption of Pb(II) ions onto Senna tora. Percentage sorption of Fe(II) increased from 94 to 99% and that of Pb (II) from 94.4 to 96% as adsorbent dose was increased from 2 to 10 g. The isotherms data provide information on the capacity of the adsorbent or the amount required to remove a unit mass of pollutant under the operating conditions. The equilibrium data of Fe(II) and Pb(II) adsorbed onto Senna tora pods were fitted by the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms. On the basis of correlation coefficients R2, it is concluded that the Fe(II) and Pb(II) biosorption is better fitted to the Freundlich model. This suggests that the biosorption of Fe(II) and Pb(II) on the surface of Senna tora pods occurs on heterogeneous binding sites with equivalent adsorption energies and multilayer coverage. The results demonstrated that Senna tora pod holds potential to remove cationic heavy metal species from industrial wastewater.

Published: August 2023

Especially in the last ten years, Spanish has become a more popular language among secondary and high school students in Thailand. This study aims to investigate the motivations, i.e., the internal and external factors that influence secondary and high school English program students who choose to study Spanish as a foreign language. Thirty-six English program students from Satri Suksa Roi Et School who were studying Spanish as a foreign language participated in the survey. The findings showed that their motivations of learning Spanish, both intrinsic and extrinsic, is moderate (58%). In comparison, the intrinsic motivations play a more important role than the extrinsic (61.8% vs. 54.2%). The most important internal factors that influence the students are that they want to communicate and read in Spanish and that they think that Spanish is one of the most important languages in the world. The external factor that is most often selected is that they would like to travel to countries where people speak Spanish. In conclusion, both secondary school and high school students are interested in studying Spanish because they would like to be able to communicate in Spanish and they recognize that it is one of the important languages in the world. However, according to the results, some external factors, related to Hispanic culture and media (including social media) in Spanish, were not so important as we expected.
Re-reading Catullus 1.9 (o patrona...)

Following the lead of those critics who have judged Catull. 1.9patrona uirgoas the result of anerror christianus, the author proposes an emendation based on the comparison with the incipit of the introductory elegy of Meleager’sGarland. As it has been demonstrated, in his dedicatory poem Catullus echoes in particular Meleager.AP4.1.1-3, where the Greek poet refers to (i) himself and his poetic work, (ii) to his dedicatee, and (iii) to a not further specified Muse, all elements that can be found also in Catullus; moreover, Meleager introduces a fourth referent in connection to his divine patroness, i.e. the divinely inspired ‘composers of hymns’ (hymnothetai), which is lacking in Catullus’ c. 1: one could resolve this apparent inconsistency by conjecturinguatuminstead of the pleonasticuirgoof the manuscripts. Another possibility would be to readpatrona diua.

Quotations of Classical Music as the Basis of Leit-Thematism in the Film Interpretation of Leo Tolstoy’s Novel “Anna Karenina” (USA, 1997, Directed by B. Rose)
Authors: Aleksandrova Diana Aleksandrovna
Published: August 2023

The paper aims to analyse the use of classical musical works as the main leitmotifs, as well as the influence of the music chosen by the creators of the film on the viewer’s perception of onscreen action. The scientific novelty of the study lies in choosing for analysis Bernard Rose’s film “Anna Karenina” (USA, 1997) based on the eponymous novel by Leo Tolstoy, the musical component of which involves exclusively classical music. As a result of the study, the author comes to the conclusion that the use of fragments from P. Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No. 6 and S. Rachmaninoff’s “Elegy” as the main leitmotifs allowed the director to make the film more spiritual, profound and closer to the Russian worldview.

Rachmaninoff’s works “To Her” and “A-Oo!” Op. 38 from the position of musical and speech intonation, the use of intonation formulas, musical techniques. The scientific novelty of the study lies in identifying the counterpoints and principles of synthesising elements of the semantic ensemble of words and music in S. V. Rachmaninoff’s vocal compositions “To Her” and “A-Oo!” Op. 38. As a result, it has been proved that a “semantic ensemble”, which includes both the interaction of the word and its musical intonation expression and the interaction of vocal and instrumental parts, is formed in S. V. Rachmaninoff’s vocal compositions “To Her” and “A-Oo!” Op. 38.

The aim of the study is to summarise the most important phenomena that can give a general idea of the chronological order of formation of keyboard genres and forms in the pre-Bach era, about the personalities of outstanding keyboard composers, about the intersection of various national styles in their heritage. The paper is of a reviewing nature. The scientific novelty of the study lies in substantiating the fact that the creative work of Johann Jakob Froberger (1616-1667) is distinguished by its multi-national character, which he managed to combine with elements of the German musical language. As a result, the paper characterises the musical creative work of gifted German composers and musicians performing music for stringed keyboard instruments of the XVII century; describes the features of the keyboard heritage of Johann Jakob Froberger and his influence on the musical creative work of his contemporaries; identifies the main features of the German keyboard music of the XVIII century.

Authors: Vembye Mikkel Helding , Weiss Felix , Hamilton Bhat Bethany
Published: August 2023

Co-teaching and related collaborative models of instruction are widely used in primary and secondary schools in many school systems. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of such models on students’ academic achievement and how these effects are moderated by factors of theoretical and practical relevance. Although previous research and reviews have asserted that the evidence base is scarce, we found 128 treatment and control group studies from 1984 to 2020. We excluded 52 studies due to critical risk of bias via Cochrane’s risk of bias assessment tools and conducted a meta-analysis of 76 studies. This yielded 280 short-term effect sizes, of which 82% were pretest-adjusted. We found a moderate, positive, and statistically significant mean effect of [Formula: see text] = .11, 95% confidence interval [.035, .184] of collaborative instruction compared to single-taught controls, using the correlated-hierarchical effects (CHE-RVE) model. From moderator analyses, we found that collaborative instruction yields effects of mostly the same size, whether the interventions involved trained teachers or assistants with no teaching qualifications. This implies a potential for the expansion of such interventions at lower costs than otherwise expected. Moreover, factors that are highlighted in the co-teaching literature as preconditions for the effectiveness of collaborative instruction did not explain variations in effect sizes. Finally, we found no clear evidence for publication bias or small study effects. Notably, a large number of the studies that we drew upon were nonrandomized studies; and therefore, more rigorous experimental research is needed, especially on relevant co-teaching interventions.

Background: Recently, new surgical systems less invasive than standard laparoscopy have been developed. Among these, robotic single site surgery is playing a pivotal role. In this field, the da Vinci SP (Single-Port) Surgical System (SP1098) is one of the newest surgical technology that presents innovative characteristics that may lead to better surgical outcomes. Few groups have already published their experience and results with this system in gynecology. Methods: The aim of the present systematic review was to provide a comprehensive overview of the status and applications of da Vinci SP1098 in gynecologic surgery. A systematic review of the literature was performed. Studies were identified until September 2022. Results: Six studies were included, reporting a total of 211 patients. The indication for surgery was both benign and malignant disorders. In terms of operative outcomes, the mean/median docking time varied from 2.1 to 5 min while mean/median operating time from 86.5 to 245 min. There was no conversion to multi-port laparoscopy or laparotomy and no major complications related to SP surgery. Conclusions: In conclusion, the preliminary and limited data available regarding the da Vinci SP1098 Surgical System suggest the technical feasibility and safety for its use in gynecologic surgery, with minimal alteration of the surgical technique.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the available data on prevention and early diagnosis in gynecological cancers. Mechanism: A comprehensive search was performed in the PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE, SCOPUS and Web of Science databases. Findings in Brief: To date the prevention programmes of all degrees exist exclusively for cervical cancer. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccination prevents from infection and development of precancerous lesions and contributes significantly to the deflection of the incidence of cervical cancer. Screening for HPV-related lesions is worldwide performed by cervical smear (Pap-test) and HPV test. Finally, tertiary prevention is aimed at the treatment of previously diagnosticated lesions with the aid of surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy. Unfortunately, to date the prevention programmes of other gynecological tumors have not reached a good performance; indeed, the primum movens that leads to the development of such neoplasms has not been identified yet. Actually, no screening programs for the early diagnosis of endometrial cancer are available, however, it is recommended the adoption of a healthy lifestyle and a balanced diet. Diagnostic biomarkers would be helpful for screening asymptomatic high-risk women, but histopatological examinations remain the gold standard for diagnosis of endometrial cancer. Similarly, there are no screening tests for the diagnosis of ovarian cancer. In recent years many steps forward have been made in this field and new perspectives have been presented, however, additional investigation is needed to optimize the duration and timing of treatment, examine its cost-effectiveness, and identify potential tumor or host biologic factors predictive of the efficacy and adverse events. Finally, there are no primary and secondary prevention for vulvar cancer so patients should be invited to self-examination and pay attention to the presence of symptoms. Conclusions: Are the available screening programs for the diagnosis of gynecological carcinomas sufficient? The prevention and the diagnosis of precancerous lesions is the goal to be achieved for all gynecological cancers in order to improve patient outcomes, reduce the costs for managing the disease and prolonged follow up.

Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women, with an estimated 600,000 new cases and 340,000 deaths worldwide in 2020. However, there remains limited understanding of the association between individual socioeconomic status, clinical characteristics, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of women with cervical precancerous lesions. This study investigates socioeconomic and clinical variations in HRQoL of women with cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer in Yunnan Province, China. Methods: The present study employed a cross-sectional survey design. An EuroQol Five Dimensions Five Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire was used to assess HRQoL of 400 patients with cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer in Yunnan Province, China, from 2019 to 2020. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and independent samples t-tests were performed to identify the independent variables associated with EQ-5D-5L utility scores and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores. Predictors of utility scores were confirmed using a Tobit regression model. Results: The mean EQ-5D-5L utility scores of cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer patients was 0.939 (standard deviation (SD), 0.104), and the mean VAS score was 80.84 (SD, 16.551). Patients aged 40–59 years (β = –0.037, p = 0.005), patients who were not aware of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine (β = –0.032, p = 0.004), and patients who underwent radical hysterectomy (β = –0.036, p = 0.006) had significantly lower utility scores, whereas having high monthly household income (β = 0.023, p = 0.033) was significantly associated with higher EQ-5D-5L utility scores. Age (p = 0.023) was statistically significant in differences in patients’ VAS scores. Anxiety/depression was the most frequently reported issue (35.75%) among participants. Conclusions: Future cervical cancer prevention and treatment guidelines should focus on low-income women, women aged 40–59 years, and those lacking knowledge about cervical cancer prevention.
Histone Variants and Their Chaperones: An Emerging Epigenetic Mechanism in Neurodevelopment and Neurodevelopmental Disorders
Authors: Johal Karanveer S , Cheema Manjinder S , Stefanelli Gilda
Published: August 2023

Neurodevelopment is a highly regulated process that relies on the precise regulation of gene expression. Numerous epigenetic mechanisms contribute and cooperate to ensure the proper execution of developmental gene expression programs. Indeed, disruption of the molecular machinery regulating the deposition or removal of epigenetics markers is associated with numerous neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disabilities. Among the various epigenetic marks that are fundamental for brain development, research has recently begun to focus on the role of histone variants and their associated chaperone proteins. Replication-independent histone variants can replace replication-dependent canonical histones in neuronal chromatin, giving nucleosomes unique properties that allow them to influence transcription. The deposition and removal of histone variants into neuronal chromatin are controlled by chaperone proteins that are integrated into chromatin remodelling complexes. Several studies report that the deposition and removal of histone variants by chaperone proteins from genes during development is pivotal for the regulation of gene expression, suggesting they are fundamental for neurodevelopment. This review will focus on the histone variants H2A.Z and H3.3, and the exclusive chaperones that regulate their dynamics, in gene expression during neurodevelopment and the progression of neurodevelopmental disorders.
