Abstract Although the potential of surrogate propagation technology for aquaculture and conservation of Neotropical fish, the poor understanding of the host immune system may results in rejection and destruction of the donor material. Thus, it is necessary to study and to develop methods to evaluate the effects of immunosuppressive drugs employment and to evaluate the immunocompatibility between donor and receptor. Thus, the present study aimed to optimize a methodology to assess in vivo phagocytosis in Astyanax altiparanae using Saccharomyces cerevisiae and to evaluate their hematological response resultant from the inflammatory induction. To this, S. cerevisiae were labeled with Congo red and injected in the coelomic cavity of A. altiparanae at the concentration of 2.5 x 106 cells mL-1. A PBS solution and a non-injected group were kept as control. Fish blood was sampled and the phagocytic capacity and index were determined at 1, 2, 3 and 6 h post-injection (hpi). The yeast injection successfully stimulated phagocytosis, with the best result for phagocytosis assessment after 2 hpi. Moreover, it was achieved a high traceability of phagocytized and non-phagocytized yeast under optic microscopy analysis due to the Congo red labeling. The hematological profile was similar to usually observed in early infections, indicating lymphocyte migration to inflammatory site and increase in number of circulating phagocytes due to natural response to inflammatory stimulus. In conclusion, our method was efficient to assess in vivo phagocytosis in A. altiparanae and will be an important tool to evaluate the efficacy of immunosuppressive drugs in this species. Additionally, these results may serve as support for further studies in fish immunocompetence, both in laboratory and in field conditions.

Published: October 2019

Abstract Lymeon Förster, 1869 is a very large genus of the Cryptinae (Ichneumonidae) with predominantly Neotropical distribution where females attack small cocoons of various groups of insects and spider eggs-sac. In the present study, we report the first record the interaction between the parasitoid wasp Lymeon sp. (Ichneumonidae), with eggs-sac of spider Araneus vincibilis (Araneidae) in Northeastern Brazil. We observed that although the female of A. vincibilis cares for the eggs that were attacked by Lymeon sp, the wasp larva consumed about 80% of spider eggs, indicating that both maternal care and the physical barrier offered by the eggs-sac may not provide absolute defense against predators.

Published: October 2019

Resumo O uso audiovisual prefulgura tanto na sociedade contemporânea quanto na prática da pesquisa acadêmica em Ciências Sociais, apesar de ainda não encontrar vigor na pesquisa organizacional. O objetivo deste artigo é congregar o conhecimento acumulado sobre a relação entre etnografia e audiovisual com o propósito de contribuir para o avanço das práticas metodológicas de pesquisa em estudos organizacionais. A partir de uma revisão extensiva nas produções sobre essa relação, reunimos, organizamos e sistematizamos a discussão sob o conceito de ‘etnografia audiovisual’. Se esta relação é ampla e variada no campo das Ciências Sociais, ela ainda é tímida e inexpressiva no campo dos Estudos Organizacionais. Nesta pesquisa, elaboramos, apresentamos e discutimos dois eixos que nos ajudam a pensar virtudes e desafios da etnografia audiovisual para a pesquisa organizacional: o eixo da integração do audiovisual na etnografia e o eixo da autoria do audiovisual na etnografia. Implicações para pesquisas futuras são formuladas e discutidas.
Enhanced removal of emerging micropollutants by applying microaeration to an anaerobic reactor

Published: October 2019

ABSTRACT The present paper aimed to evaluate the impact of microaeration on both the removal performance of some emerging micropollutants (pharmaceuticals, hormones, and bisphenol A) and the microbial community structure of an anaerobic reactor treating synthetic wastewater. Under anaerobic conditions, the removal efficiencies of the micropollutants were very low (< 10%). However, the microaeration (1.0 mL air·min-1 at 27 °C and 1 atm, equivalent to a QAIR/QINF ratio of 0.1) expressively improved the removal efficiencies of all compounds (> 50%). Therefore, supplementing anaerobic reactors with low amounts of oxygen seems to be an interesting strategy to enhance the removal of the micropollutants tested. However, further studies should be carried out with other compounds in order to evaluate the wide applicability of microaeration to different classes of micropollutants in lab- and full-scale treatment systems. Concerning the microbiota structure, both bacterial and archaeal communities were not compromised by the different operational conditions and preserved their functional organization with high richness during the whole experiment.
A Survey on Temporal Reasoning for Temporal Information Extraction from Text
Authors: Leeuwenberg Artuur , Moens Marie-Francine
Published: October 2019

Time is deeply woven into how people perceive, and communicate about the world. Almost unconsciously, we provide our language utterances with temporal cues, like verb tenses, and we can hardly produce sentences without such cues. Extracting temporal cues from text, and constructing a global temporal view about the order of described events is a major challenge of automatic natural language understanding. Temporal reasoning, the process of combining different temporal cues into a coherent temporal view, plays a central role in temporal information extraction. This article presents a comprehensive survey of the research from the past decades on temporal reasoning for automatic temporal information extraction from text, providing a case study on how combining symbolic reasoning with machine learning-based information extraction systems can improve performance. It gives a clear overview of the used methodologies for temporal reasoning, and explains how temporal reasoning can be, and has been successfully integrated into temporal information extraction systems. Based on the distillation of existing work, this survey also suggests currently unexplored research areas. We argue that the level of temporal reasoning that current systems use is still incomplete for the full task of temporal information extraction, and that a deeper understanding of how the various types of temporal information can be integrated into temporal reasoning is required to drive future research in this area.
Re-Envisioning ESL for Short-Term Programs
Authors: Berardo Marcellino A. , Šedriks Baiba , Lamer Geri , Greene Marina
Published: October 2019

ESL professionals have traditionally taught the four language skills, vocabulary, and grammar in Intensive English Programs (IEPs) to help incoming students satisfy the university’s ESL requirement. As international education continues to change, however, the ESL profession will need to re-conceptualize its role and make explicit its evolving relevance. IEPs and traditional ESL classes are not necessarily applicable to short-term programs, whose purpose is to give participants some experience at a US institution with a focus on a specific discipline or area of study.  This paper demonstrates two ways ESL professionals re-envisioned their role at the university for short-term programs (STPs) by creating English courses for the international education experience. With linguistic and cultural guidance from the ESL instructors, participants in these English courses critically analyzed impactful observations, perceptions, ideas, or events from the STP and gave PowerPoint presentations at a program-wide conference on their analysis of one academic or non-academic concept or observation that had the most impact.

Published: October 2019

OBJETIVO: Conhecer os aspectos psicossociais de mulheres mastectomizadas. MÉTODO: Trata-se de estudo de abordagem qualitativa, realizado com 12 mulheres mastectomizadas e acompanhadas em uma unidade de assistência de alta complexidade de tratamento de câncer do Acre. RESULTADOS: Os resultados apontam que a maioria das mulheres eram casadas 5 (42%), com idade entre 50 a 55 anos 7 (58%), com nível médio completo 4 (33%) e renda familiar entre 1 a 2 salários mínimos 8 (67%). Os achados foram agrupados em quatro categorias: O enfrentamento da mastectomia, as dificuldades enfrentadas pela mulher após a cirurgia, a interferência da mastectomia nos seus relacionamentos e a relação da mesma com a sua autoimagem e autoestima. Conforme os relatos, para algumas mulheres a vivência frente a mastectomia foi tranquila, no entanto para outras foi um processo que gerou sentimentos de tristeza e medo do novo. Houve repercussões negativas, relacionamentos familiares afetados, incapacidade no funcionamento social e alteração na imagem corporal. Para elas, o apoio familiar foi fundamental para o enfrentamento da nova realidade. CONCLUSÃO: Realizar o procedimento afeta a vida emocional das mulheres, sendo assim, torna-se indispensável que elas recebam um adequado suporte psicológico principalmente por parte da família e dos profissionais de saúde.

Authors: Zaakiyah Eneng Dewi , Asyafah Abas , Supriadi Udin
Published: October 2019

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh kenyataan bahwa siswa acuh terhadap pembelajaran PAI, karena tidak ada dalam ujian nasional. Kenyataan inilah yang menyebabkan siswa meremehkan pelajaran PAIdan mereka pun sering menganggap bahwa dalam pembelajaran PAI monoton dan membosankan, sehingga beberapa siswa kurang menguasai materi pembelajaran PAI. Kurangnya penggunaan model pembelajaran modern dalam penyampaian materi-materi PAI, menjadi salah satu permasalahan yang diindikasikan membuat siswa kurang menangkap materi pembelajaran. Beranjak dari latar belakang tersebut, serta dilihat dari kelebihan dan karakteristik, diindikasikan bahwa model numbered heads together dapat menyelesaikan problem yang terjadi dan harapannya dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa. Adapun tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efektivitas penggunaan model pembelajarannumbered heads together dalam meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa pada materi akhlak kelas X MIA di SMA Negeri 7 Bandung. Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode eksperimen jenis nonequivalent control group design. Pengambilan sampel menggunakan nonprobability sampling. Teknik pengumpulan data diperoleh dari tes tulis berbentuk pilihan ganda. Teknik analisis datanya menggunakan analisis deskriptif dan statistik dengan bantuan aplikasi SPSS versi 21. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengolahan data dengan menggunakan uji independent sample test data post-test kelas eksperimen dan kontrol, menunjukkan nilai sig. (2-tailed) sebesar 0,000 yang artinya lebih kecil dari 0,05. Sesuai dasar pengambilan keputusan dalam uji independent sample t test, jika nilai sig.(2-tailed) < 0,05 maka Ha diterima dan H0 ditolak atau dengan kata lain terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara kelas eksperimen dan kontrol dalam peningkatan hasil belajar siswa pada materi akhlak kelas X. Dengan demikian, model pembelajaran numbered heads together efektif dalam meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa pada materi akhlak kelas X di SMA Negeri 7 Bandung.

Abstract. This research is motivated by the practice of PAI in schools that is not optimal, especially because of the lack of study hours. Seeing this problem, the development of the PAI curriculum is very important to be carried out, both by the relevant institutions and by the PAI teachers themselves. The purpose of this study is to determine and analyze the development of PAI objectives, the development of PAI substance, the development of PAI implementation, and the development of PAI evaluation. This research uses a case study method using a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques are carried out by interview, observation and documentation study. Based on the results of the study, it is found that the development of the goal of PAI is to develop academic abilities and promote the values of Islamic character in students. The development of the substance of PAI was developed into two forms, namely the intracuricular form (Tarjamah subjects) and the form of school culture (Tahfidz and Taqwa Character Building (TCB)). The development of the evaluation of the PAI curriculum was carried out in two activities, namely the evaluation by each of Darul Hikam school unit and the evaluation by a special team from the Darul Hikam Foundation.Abstrak. Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh praktik  PAI  di  sekolah yang kurang  maksimal, terutama karena minimnya jam pelajaran.  Melihat permasalahan ini, maka pengembangan kurikulum PAI menjadi sangat penting untuk dilakukan, baik oleh lembaga terkait maupun oleh guru PAI sendiri. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis: pengembangan tujuan PAI, pengembangan substansi PAI, pengembangan implementasi PAI, dan pengembangan evaluasi PAI. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi kasus dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara wawancara, observasi dan studi dokumentasi. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, ditemukan bahwa pengembangan tujuan PAI adalah mengembangkan kemampuan akademik serta mengedepankan nilai-nilai karakter Islam pada diri siswa. Adapun pengembangan substansi PAI dikembangankan ke dalam dua bentuk, yaitu bentuk intrakurikuler, berupa mata pelajaran Tarjamah dan bentuk school culture (pembiasaan sekolah) berupa Tahfidz dan Taqwa Character Building (TCB). Pengembangan evaluasi terhadap kurikulum PAI dilaksanakan dalam dua kegiatan yakni evaluasi oleh masing-masing unit sekolah Darul Hikam dan evaluasi oleh tim khusus dari Yayasan Darul Hikam.

Authors: Haveroth Juçara , Ganz Alyne Cecilia Serpa , Bilk Ângela , Silva Marcia Zanievicz
Published: October 2019

Objetivo: Analisar a relação entre as características sociais de estudantes de contabilidade, lócus de controle e resiliência.

Método: Pesquisa descritiva, quantitativa com coleta de dados por survey. O estudo foi realizado com 449 estudantes de contabilidade, de todas as regiões do Brasil, onde 31,63% eram homens e 68,37% mulheres.

Resultados: Os resultados demonstram que existem diferenças entre homens e mulheres frente aos lócus de controle e resiliência. Mulheres possuem níveis mais baixos de lócus de controle interno em relação aos homens. As mulheres possuem maiores níveis de resiliência, comparativamente aos homens. Estudantes de contabilidade, de maneira geral, possuem altos níveis de resiliência, bem como de lócus de controle interno, o que faz com que tenham um perfil de pessoas determinadas, autoconfiantes e perseverantes frente às dificuldades oferecidas durante o processo de formação no curso de graduação em ciências contábeis.

Contribuições: O estudo contribui com a literatura, ao estudar o comportamento de indivíduos ligados à contabilidade, bem como por investigar estudantes, teoricamente enquadrados nas novas gerações de contadores, sendo que ainda existem relativamente poucas pesquisas que estudem ambos.
Accounting PhD Programs in the United States
Authors: Gotti Giorgio , Hills Patrice
Published: October 2019

As Department Chairperson at The University of Texas at El Paso, I am often asked for advice regarding how to become an accounting professor. Recently, the University attained R1 designation in the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, which indicates top tier doctoral university status with very high research activity (“UTEP Attains National Research Top Tier Ranking”, 2019). This means UTEP is among 4.5%, 130 out of 2,883 universities, of four-year higher education institutions across the United States to earn this R1 distinction (“UTEP Attains National Research Top Tier Ranking”, 2019). This emphasis on research, UTEP’s mission surrounding Access and Excellence, and my own path to becoming an accounting professor were the catalyst behind an editorial geared towards international students interested in exploring a Ph.D. in the United States. We believe the role of an accounting professor is comprised of: 1.) enriching the global business and accounting community through research contributions, 2.) facilitating career readiness to students seeking higher education, and 3.) serving as an ambassador and advocate for students, programs, profession, and research. We hope this editorial helpful and we encourage you to create your own success story.

Authors: Moura Geovanne Dias de , Fank Denise Rose Bracht , Mazzioni Sady , Angonese Rodrigo , Silva Givanildo
Published: October 2019

Objetivo: O estudo analisa a relação entre habilidade gerencial e perdas do valor recuperável de goodwill.
Método: Pesquisa descritiva, documental e quantitativa, com dados coletados no banco de dados economática, relatórios da administração e notas explicativas. A amostra foi composta por 148 companhias, sendo analisadas as informações do período de 2012 a 2016.
Resultados: Do total de companhias que possuíam goodwill, 10,81% contabilizaram perdas, sendo que o setor de “petróleo, gás e biocombustíveis” possuía o maior número de companhias com perdas contabilizadas. Quanto à magnitude das perdas, verificou-se que o setor de “materiais básicos” apresentou o maior valor médio, seguido dos setores “tecnologia da informação” e “petróleo, gás e biocombustíveis”. Os gestores das empresas do setor de “saúde” apresentaram maiores indicadores de habilidade gerencial, seguidos pelos gestores das empresas dos setores de “consumo cíclico” e “consumo não cíclico”. Constatou-se também que os gestores mais habilidosos podem reduzir, mas não evitar as perdas do goodwill.
Contribuições: O estudo analisa um fator que pode influenciar nas perdas do goodwill, mas que ainda não foi investigado no cenário brasileiro, a habilidade gerencial. Assim, contribui para a literatura fornecendo mais evidências sobre os fatores determinantes da redução do valor recuperável do goodwill.

FINANCIAL REPORTING CONSEQUENCES OF CAPITAL XENOPHOBIA
Authors: Godsell David
Published: October 2019

The purpose of this editorial is to describe financial protectionism as a potentially important determinant of financial reporting outcomes. Fear of foreign capital, or capital xenophobia, spurs financial protectionism. Examining the effects of financial protectionism on financial reporting outcomes potentially permits an expansion of positive accounting theory and, in particular, the political cost hypothesis. I first describe extant literature examining the political cost hypothesis. I then describe national-security related drivers of capital xenophobia. Next, I examine settings in which we can observe variation in financial protectionism. I conclude by positing varied paths by which financial protectionism can affect financial reporting outcomes.

Published: October 2019

Varicocele is one of the most common diseases of the male reproductive system. Despite the high prevalence of this pathology, the effect of varicocele on male fertility is still a controversial issue. Opinions of experts about the possible effects of varicocele on the male reproductive health, the causes and methods of treatment are contradictory, and the experimental data obtained often show directly opposed results. This article presents a review of the literature on the effects of varicocele on the male reproductive system and fertility.

Authors: Bratchikov О. I. , Dubonos Р. A. , Tyuzikov I. A.
Published: October 2019

The study objective is to investigate some initial characteristics of prostate oxidative status and their dynamics during the course of etiotropic antimicrobial monochemotherapy in patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis (CBP).

Materials and methods. The work is based on treatment of 90 men aged 24–46 years (mean age 38.2 ± 1.4 years) with CBP (the treatment group), and 30 clinically healthy men aged 20–45 years (mean age 35.5 ± 1.5 years) (control group). All men underwent the same type of comprehensive examination during the study, and the results of the examination of the men of the control group were taken as reference values of the conditional norm. Complaints and anamnesis were collected. General physical, special urological, microbiological, laboratory, sonographic studies were performed. The etiotropic antimicrobial monochemotherapy was selected according to the results of microbiological studies of the secretion of the prostate gland, and levofloxacin (500 mg within 28 days) was chosen as a base drug for the subgroup of treatment (n = 15) isolated from the treatment group in the 2nd stage of the study. To assess the characteristics of the prostate oxidative status and its dynamics during etiotropic antimicrobial monochemotherapy, various modifications of biochemical studies of the secretion of the prostate were performed (reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxidation products (diol conjugates, malonic dialdehyde), activity of superoxide dismutase).

Results. In patients with CBP in the secretion of the prostate due to increased ROS formation, increased functional activity (free radical aggression), increased reactions of lipid peroxidation and increased functional load on prostatic superoxide dismutase. Antimicrobial monochemotherapy of CBP was characterized by a microbiological efficacy of 86.7 % and was accompanied by a positive dynamics of a number of clinical and laboratory parameters of chronic bacterial prostatitis, however, this did not lead to the complete elimination of pain syndrome and oxidative disorders in the secretion of the prostate, and also did not significantly improve the quality life of patients and prostate secretory function. In patients with CBP a significant positive relationship was found between the amount of ROS and superoxide dismutase activity in the secretion of the prostate (n = 90; r = 0.413; p = 0.001); and the positive relationship between the amount of ROS in the secretion of the prostate and the clinical pain index (n = 90, r = 0.304, p = 0.001), which reflected the essential role of free radical prostatic aggression as an non-infectious component of the multifactorial pathogenesis of the pain syndrome in CBP.

Conclusion. The persistence of residual oxidative disorders and functional deficits in the prostate after a standard course of microbial monochemotherapy justifies the advisability of the additional administration of antioxidants and antihypoxic agents in CBP.

A case of infertility treatment in couple with a male factor, the severe form of teratozoospermia (total globozoospermia (type 1)) was presented. This pathology is extremely rare (0.1 % at andrological patients). Globozoospermia (type 1) is an insufficiently studied disease and is a severe disorder of spermatogenesis that leads to 100 % of male infertility. Assisted reproductive technologies with using of intracytoplasmic morphologically normal sperm injection and the activation of oocytes – by Ca2+-ionophore A23187 in a man with globozoospermia (type 1) helped in the treatment of infertility in matrimony. Pregnancy and childbirth proceeded favorably.

Published: October 2019

Use of Knowledge Processing in agriculture has continuously increased, since the first era of knowledge based systems. Such software systems are used for support in detailed tasks, such as determining the amount of fertilizer in precision farming, as well as on high-level decision support, such as ‘what to plant in the next growing season’. Unfortunately, these software systems often have shortcomings in software quality. Applying design patterns is a recognized means to achieve better systems in terms of efficiency, flexibility, and quality. In this paper, several software design patterns are mapped to the context of knowledge processing systems in agriculture. Furthermore, additional patterns are identified and described. The need for patterns with focus on particular aspects of knowledge processing in agriculture is addressed, and an implementation is introduced as a proof of concept.

Authors: Awuor Fredrick Mzee , Otanga Sarah Atenya
Published: October 2019

With advancement of mobile technology and the property of mobile phones of being ubiquitous and pervasive, innovative applications in agriculture that are context specific and individualized to farmers’ needs can now be developed. This is because mobile phone based agricultural innovations are readily leveraged to provide farmers with information ranging from farm preparation and pre-harvest to post harvest and farm produce marketing. In this regard, this paper proposes a farmer centric pest e-surveillance solution framework, a digital platform that uses mobile devices, image processing and crowdsourcing to assist smallholder farmers in low income countries to effectively identify and control crop pest invasion, and to connect them with local agro-vet stores and extension service providers for assistance. This way, we can assist small holder farmers in rural Africa to learn about crop pests, to detect and respond to pest invasion, and to control the effects of such pest invasion by providing timely, accurate, relevant and readily consumable information in the local languages of the farmers. This also makes it easy to perform large-scale pest surveillance in the rural farming community.

The economic importance of goat production has increased worldwide during the last few decades. Goats have many advantages that enable them to maintain their production under extreme climate and geographic conditions. Among domestic ruminants, goats have the highest capacity to effectively convert feed into meat and milk. Goat milk products are considered to be the dairy products with the greatest marketing potential. Fermented goat milk incorporating live probiotic cells represents a group of products with great prospects in the future with regards to their nutritive and therapeutic properties.

Although goat milk products have numerous health benefits, they are rarely bought and consumed in Hungary. The main objective of our empirical research was to analyse the respondents’ perception and acceptance towards cottage cheese made from goat milk in Debrecen, Hungary. The research method was blinded testing of cottage cheeses made from cow, sheep and goat milk. The research has been carried out in the autumn, 2018 and beginning of 2019 with a sample of 202. Based on the results it can be stated, that respondents had rather similar opinion (outlook, smell, taste, fatness and colour) on the three tested cottage cheeses. The affordable price is almost the same, roughly 0,8 - 1 EUR/250 gr. Regarding the preferred way of consumption, respondents would eat the cow and goat cottage cheese sweet while the sheep cottage cheese salty. This result might be related to their natural characteristics. Our blinded test did not support the negative stereotypes toward goat milk products. When marketing Hungarian goat cottage cheese, its colour, outlook, fatness, healthiness, ways of consumption (recipes) and local handmade nature should be emphasised.

Authors: Katunova V.V.
Published: October 2019

The article discusses the study of the relationship of ADHD in children and adults with their learning motivation at the neurological and behavioral levels. On the basis of the results of research presented in modern foreign literature, two categories of reasons for the decline in learning motivation among students with ADHD are identified: external and internal. The purpose of this article is to emphasize that the system of motivation in patients with ADHD has deeper impairments than is commonly believed due to neurological disorders of the brain, as well as complex social problems, and present these results as an explanation of motivational and educational problems faced by students with ADHD. The article also presents possible directions for coordinating the reasons for the decline in academic motivation in ADHD and psychological theories of its formation (SDT, AGT and SCT). The possibilities of applying these theories for psychological and pedagogical solutions to the problems of motivation among students with ADHD are shown. The results of the analysis of the reviewed scientific papers indicate the need for a comprehensive account of the factors that reduce motivation in developing a system of recommendations for students with ADHD – for organizing their learning environment and planning the individual trajectory of their development.

Published: October 2019

Concrete is produced cement-bonded system, which is a composite material formed by the combination of different components. The hydration process of the cement and the hydration products affect the mechanical and technological properties of the concrete. In this sense, the curing process is needed to achieve the targeted mechanical properties. In this study, concrete samples were produced by using additives with different origins called mineral additives. The samples were subjected to pressurized steam curing with the help of autoclave at different temperature and pressure values. After the curing process, the compressive strength of the test samples were investigated. In addition, the cured samples were kept in high temperature furnaces at 450 and 900 0C for 6 hours and the compressive strength of the samples were examined. As a result of the study, it was found that the autoclave cure caused an increase in the compressive strength of the concrete at 400 0C. The best high temperature resistance values were determined in the blast furnace slag addition series.
