Application of chemometrics for identification of chemical constituents of essential oils of importance for biological activities of selected aromatic lamiaceae species
Authors: Smoliński Adam , Djakovic-Sekulic Tatjana
Published: January 2019

Essential oils (EOs) extracted from natural products are made up of large
number of chemical constituents. Being natural mixtures of very complex
nature, essential oils may consist of about 20-60 components at quite
different concentrations. Essential oils are characterized by two or three
major components being present at fairly high concentrations (20-70%) in
comparison to other components that are present in trace amounts. From that
reason one plant can provide a pool of chemical ingredients that cause a
whole range of activities. The present paper analyzes the activities in the
space of the chemical constituents of EOs of 7 medicinal plants from
Lamiaceae family known as peppermint, oregano, thyme, rosemary, sage, basil
and lemon balm. The hierarchical clustering analysis (HCA) was applied to
explore the similarities and dissimilarities between the 7 Lamiaceae herbs,
and chemical constituents of their EOs together with their antioxidant and
antibacterial activity. More in-depth examination of the data was achieved
by color map. HCA indicated the uniqueness of each essential oil considered.
The high content of certain compounds, as well as the unique presence of
other chemical constituents were identified for each EO. HCA grouped the
studied EOs into two clusters: one with peppermint, oregano and thyme, and
the other with rosemary and sage, while basil and lemon balm were
non-clustered.

The processing of fruits results in high amounts of waste materials without
having any significant commercial values. Fruit wastes represent an important
source of phytochemicals with human health benefits, so isolation and further
utilization of these compounds is an important issue in agro-industrial waste
management. New aspects concerning the use of these wastes for the production
of food additives or supplements with high nutritional value have gained
increasing interest because these are economically attractive and high-value
products. This study discusses the potential of the quince waste, which
remains after alcoholic distillation, as a source of bioactive phytochemicals
(phenolics, flavonoids and carotenoids). Antioxidant activities were measured
by scavenging effect on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and
2,20-azinobis(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline- 6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radicals,
?-carotene bleaching assay and reducing power. The anti-inflammatory activity
was evaluated by protein denaturation assay. Quince waste extract expressed
good concentration-dependent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.

Published: January 2019

The self-assembly methods, an inexpensive and high throughput technique
capable of producing nanostructure arrays, relies on the formation
on a monolayer of self-assembled nanospheres. This paper reports on the
formation of large-areas monolayer polystyrene particles ~150 nm in
diameter onto monocrystalline Si (100) substrates by using the spin-coating
method. In this method, the quality of the deposited monolayer is determined
by the balance between spinning and solvent evaporation, accounted by two
different forces, the centrifugal force and viscous shearing force, and
their interplay. The key process parameters which influence the deposition
process and determine the properties of polystyrene monolayers such as the
spinning rate, time and concentration of PS particles in the solution were
studied. By varying the experimental conditions in different steps the films
quality can be easily improved and the optimized experimental parameters
were achieved. A homogenous and well-ordered PS monolayer with a high
surface coverage of ~94 % was formed on a large-area substrate of 1 cm ?1 cm
at specific conditions of a 2000 rpm spinning rate, 2 wt. % polystyrene
solution concentration and 210 s duration of the spinning process. We
conclude that this method can be useful in a variety of applications since
it offers a stable and controllable approach to the fabrication of monolayer
polystyrene films on a large-scale.
Application of an electronegative gas as a third component of the working gas in the Geiger-Mueller counter
Authors: Perazic Luka , Belic Cedomir , Arbutina Dalibor
Published: January 2019

In this paper, the application of three-component gas mixtures as a working
gas in Geiger-Mueller tubes was considered. In addition to the noble and
quenching gas, an electronegative gas is used, at the same time, as the third
component of gas mixture. This paper is mostly experimental. The experiments
are carried out on the enlarged Geiger-Mueller counter tube model. By
applying the similarity law for electric discharges in gases on the model and
commercial Geiger-Mueller counting tubes, the model was verified. The
obtained results showed that a small percentage of SF6 gas, in the working
gas, stabilize operating point of Geiger-Mueller counter tubes and reduce
dead time.

An assessment of dose indicators for computed tomography localization procedures in radiation therapy at the University Hospital Rijeka
Authors: Diklic Ana , Segota Doris , Belac-Lovasic Ingrid , Jurkovic Slaven
Published: January 2019

The computed tomography has become a standard tool in radiation therapy
treatment planning. Additionally, there is a growing awareness of the dose
delivered to the part of the body outside the target volume. The ionizing
radiation carries a stochastic risk of malignancy, therefore, the doses
should be kept as low as reasonably achievable in order to provide an
adequate information needed for the radiotherapy planning. The objective of
this work was to set up the initial diagnostic reference levels and correlate
to the image quality that would be used in the future optimization of
localization scans. To quantify the doses from computed tomography
localization scans at the University Hospital Rijeka, local diagnostic
reference levels were established for five most common procedures of
different anatomical regions; head, head and neck, pelvis, breast and thorax.
The Computed Tomography Dose Index volumetric and the Dose-Length Product
were used as dose indicators and scanning parameters were also recorded. The
image quality assessment was performed for each set of images. The results
were compared to the seldom published data in order to compare the clinical
practice. The image quality for almost all of the body regions are scored as
acceptable in average but require improvement. It is shown that the
optimization of radiotherapy protocols is required. Therefore, these
results will be used as a guideline for that process. The establishment of
the national diagnostic reference levels for computed tomography localization
procedures in radiation therapy is the next step and is currently an ongoing
process.

Authors: Pavlenko Tetiana , German Olga , Aksenov Nikolay , Fryzyuk Miroslava , Operchuk Anatoliy
Published: January 2019

This article provides a review of radon remediation methods and an algorithm
of their applications. The methods assessed are applicable for indoor radon
originating from the ground beneath or around a building. It was established
that radon activity concentration in underlying soil or ground ranging
between 15 and 30 kBqm-3 would contribute to an average annual indoor radon
concentration from 20 Bqm-3 reaching up to 1030 Bqm-3 in the region, i. e., a
10-15 fold difference, while the average radium concentration in soil was
assessed as 30 Bqkg-1. The geo-morphological analysis in the investigated
region classifies the top soil as very permeable, containing huge volumes of
soil air which is easily transported with the temperature and pressure
gradient. It was demonstrated that both soil characteristics and construction
characteristics must be taken into account when designing radon remediation
methods. One hundred eighty nine buildings were investigated, remediated, and
assessed as part of this research work. The average remediation efficiency
was established as 50 %. The paper provides an overview of recommended
remedial actions and most common mistakes made by construction experts
influencing the efficiency of radon remediation.
Does the Market Value Auditors' Industry Specializations? Evidence from the Contagion Effects of Restatements
Authors: Ji Amy E , Kumar Krishna R. , Pei Hang , Xue Yanfeng
Published: January 2019

SYNOPSIS

This study investigates whether auditors' industry specializations are valued by the capital market. By using a quasi-experimental research design, we control for the confounding effects of auditor choices, which are often found in prior studies. Specifically, we examine whether an auditor's non-restating audit clients suffer collateral damage from restatements of the same auditor's other clients. If an auditor's industry specialization is valued by the market, the contagion effect should be greater for clients of industry specialist auditors. We find that the non-restating clients of city-level industry specialists whose other clients issue restatements experience −0.8 percent abnormal returns around restatement announcements. For national industry specialists, we find negative market reaction to the auditors' non-restating clients only when the restatements convey severe negative signals. Overall, the evidence is consistent with the notion that auditors' reputations as national- and city-level specialists are priced at a premium in the capital markets.
Accounting in 2036: A Learned Profession
Authors: Barth Mary E.
Published: January 2019

My vision is that by 2036 accounting is known as the learned profession that provides information for informed decision-making to support a prosperous society. By 2036, academic and practicing accountants view themselves as part of the same profession, and practicing accountants look to academics to develop knowledge relevant to identifying information—and its characteristics—useful in informing decisions. In sum, insights from research are instrumental in shaping accounting in practice. To achieve this vision, academics need to (1) conduct fundamental and applied research; (2) communicate research insights outside of academia; (3) interact with practicing accountants and others who use accounting information, such as managers, capital providers, regulators, and government officials; and (4) ensure that everyone understands that academic accountants are responsible for the “learned” part of accounting as a learned profession.
A Histological Study of Vasoconstriction by Local Anesthetics in Mandible
Authors: Tanaka Katsunori , Kudo Kanae , Ambe Kimiharu , Kawaai Hiroyoshi , Yamazaki Shinya
Published: January 2019

To assess the effect of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics on vasoconstriction, we immunohistochemically measured the intravascular lumen area in different regions of the mandible. Twelve male Wistar rats were used. General anesthesia was induced and maintained with sevoflurane. Infiltration anesthesia was performed with 0.2 mL of epinephrine-free 2% lidocaine (E−) near the left mandibular first molar and with 0.2 mL of epinephrine-containing 2% lidocaine (E+) near the right mandibular first molar. After decalcification, the specimens were paraffinized, and thin sections were prepared and immunohistologically stained with an antismooth muscle actin antibody. The intravascular lumen area was measured in the mucosa, periodontal membrane, Haversian/Volkmann's canal, and bone marrow. A Mann-Whitney U test was used for statistical processing, and p < .05 was considered to indicate a statistically significant difference. In the oral mucosa and the periodontal membrane, E+ had a significantly smaller vascular lumen area than E−. In the Haversian/Volkmann's canal and the bone marrow, no significant intergroup difference was observed in the intravascular lumen area. We postulate that this is due to a low smooth muscle content of blood vessels in the mandible and suggest that the vasoconstrictive effect of epinephrine-containing local anesthetics within the mandible is ineffective.

Authors: Chino Kristin , Ganzberg Steven , Mendoza Kristopher
Published: January 2019

The safe treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in dental office–based settings can be quite complex without a current understanding of the etiology, course, severity, and treatment modalities of the disease. The additional concerns of providing sedation and/or general anesthesia to patients with COPD in settings outside of a hospital demand thorough investigation of individual patient presentation and realistic development of planned treatment that patients suffering from this respiratory condition can tolerate. Along with other comorbidities, such as advanced age and potential significant cardiovascular compromise, the dental practitioner providing sedation or general anesthesia must tailor any treatment plan to address multiple organ systems and mitigate risks of precipitating acute respiratory failure from inadequate pain and/or anxiety control. Part I of this article will cover the epidemiology, etiology, and pathophysiology of COPD. Patient evaluation in the preoperative period will also be reviewed. Part II will cover which patients are acceptable for sedation/general anesthesia in the dental office–based setting as well as sedation/general anesthesia techniques that may be considered.

Authors: ÇAĞLI Efe Çağlar , EVRİM MANDACI Pınar
Published: January 2019

In this paper, we try
to examine the multiple rational bubbles in several developed and emerging
stock markets. We employ the generalized sup augmented Dickey-Fuller (GSADF)
test on the monthly dividend yield series of 39 stock markets for the period
from January 2002 to April 2017. This econometric framework allows us to date-stamp
the multiple rational bubbles and furthermore outperforms the standard unit
root tests through its recursive flexible estimation window. The empirical
results strongly confirm the existence of rational bubbles in most of the
analyzed stock markets. Finally, it was found out that the rational bubbles in
the stock markets occurred around the 2007-08 global financial turmoil.

Illegal logging is a part of crime against environment, which has a massive impact on the economy, social, cultural, and ecological. Ironically, majority of the illegal logging’s perpetrators are dominated by “the field criminal”. On the other side, intellectual actors who can control the activities never touch by the law. The money laundering concept can give a new approach to detect the leader actor. The author use follow the money viewpoint, which includes placement, layering, and integration. Qualitative data collection methods is used with in-depth interviews, systematic observation of the behavior, and document analysis. The result is a new paradigm in investigating illegal logging no longer focused on the field actors, but potentially tracking the intellectual actors behind illegal logging.

Design of Bistable Gold@Spin-Crossover Core-Shell Nanoparticles Showing Large Electrical Responses for the Spin Switching
Authors: Torres-Cavanillas Ramón , Sanchis-Gual Rocher , Dugay Julien , Coronado-Puchau Marc , Giménez Marqués Dr. Mónica , Coronado Eugenio
Published: January 2019

A simple protocol to prepare core-shell gold@spin-crossover (Au@SCO) nanoparticles (NPs) based on the 1D spin-crossover [Fe(Htrz)2(trz)](BF4) coordination polymer is reported. The synthesis relies on a two-step approach consisting on a partial surface ligand substitution of the citrate-stabilized Au NPs followed by the controlled growth of a very thin layer of the SCO polymer. As a result, colloidally stable core@shell spherical NPs of 19 nm in size exhibiting a narrow distribution in sizes have been obtained, revealing a switchable SCOshell of ca.4 nm. Temperature-dependent charge transport measurements of an electrical device based on assemblies of these Au@SCO NPs display well-defined, reproducible and sharp thermal hysteresis loops in the conductance near room temperature. This device is characterized both, by a large change in conductance upon spin state switching, and a remarkable transition abruptness, as compared with other memory devices based on the pristine SCO NPs. As a result, the sensitivity of the device to the spin transition is dramatically improved, with values for the ON/OFF ratio which are an order of magnitude better than the best ones obtained in previous SCO devices.
