Authors: Pantic Milena , Lazic Vesna , Kozarski Maja
Published: January 2025

Mushrooms are recognized not only as a valuable source of nutrients but also as a treasure of bioactive components that have found application in obtaining dietary supplements and functional food. In recent times, the classification of products from fruiting bodies and mycelium of mushrooms into the category of "new food" is an increasing challenge. Chitin, a polymer present in the cell wall of fungi, as well as his derivate chitosan, has an increased application in various branches of industry, pharmacy, and biomedicine. Also, they are recognized as a potential new food. Due to the low solubility of chitin and chitosan at physiological pH, often, there is a need for further chitosan modification to obtain derivatives and smaller molecules with extensive application. This review aims to highlight the advantages of using mushrooms in obtaining chitosan, a safe, biodegradable polysaccharide with pronounced antimicrobial activity and numerous benefits for human and animal health. We draw attention to the physicochemical properties of chitin and chitosan, the presence in the cell wall of mushrooms, as well as methods of extraction and purification of chitosan. The literature data on their application in the food industry, in the making of chitosan-based composites with wide application in the food industry, and especially for edible and active film production, is discussed. Finally, application in agriculture is also considered.

Authors: Barjaktarovic-Labovic Snezana , Pantovic Snezana , Joksimovic Ivana , Banjri Ines
Published: January 2025

The assessment of athletes' nutritional status is a crucial aspect of enhancing sports performance, maintaining health, and reducing the risk of injuries. Nutritional status provides a comprehensive insight into athletes' dietary habits and needs, enabling tailored adjustments in energy and nutrient intake according to the specifics of individual sports, training intensity, and personal goals. The focus is often placed solely on the athletic component of training, while the nutritional factor is unjustly neglected. The aim of this study was to examine athletes' knowledge of proper nutrition and supplementation. A secondary objective was to assess the nutritional status of the studied group of athletes based on anthropometric parameters. A cross-sectional study was conducted in five towns in Montenegro (Podgorica, Bar, Berane, Budva, and Bijelo Polje) in 2022. The BMI calculated from anthropometric measurements (Mean 22.58±2.92) was within the normal range for 83.1% of the participants, 12.1% were overweight, and 4.8% were underweight. More than a third of participants (38.8%) reported using dietary supplements, with the majority (33.0%) taking supplements on their own initiative, while 17.0% followed medical advice. The percentage of correct answers ranged from 16.7% to 84.8%, with an overall mean of 1.53±0.15. A statistically significant influence of gender, education level, competition rank, and sources of nutrition information on participants' nutrition knowledge was found. No correlation was observed between BMI and overall nutrition knowledge, nor between overall knowledge and body fat presence. The results of the study suggest that integrated approaches to nutrition, based on precise assessments of nutritional status and education, significantly contribute to improved sports performance and athletes' health, and should be considered as a standard in sports practice. Nutrition education and support from certified dietitians in sports clubs could play a crucial role in achieving this goal. With a better understanding of nutrition, athletes can make informed food choices and optimize their performance, ultimately contributing to their overall health and success in sports.
Visual play technique in the first Desa Dugalić's textbook about acting
Authors: Krčmar Vesna
Published: January 2025

Theatre acting has an advantage over related arts, which is reflected in tel ling and describing events from the soul and the outside world. It uses living words, in addition to the obvious, visual representations of certain events, situations, experiences and mental states of characters whose lives are presented to the audience. The living word gives theatre acting a decisive superiority over many arts, because it clearly and precisely describes events and expresses feelings, so that it most successfully affects both the mind and the soul, the intellect and the sensibility of the audience. Visual acting includes: mimicry, body posture, hand and body movements (gestures), walking and taking a position on the stage (which is an important part of acting as a whole) and it contributes to the complete artistic presentation and effect of the text of the role and the entire work. So, it has to be adapted to the meaning of the text and the character that is portrayed (character, temper, age, social position and upbringing, social environment and historical epoch of a certain character). The adaptation of visual acting into the text and the temper of the character should reflect a faithful image o life, which is achieved not only by talent and intuition, but also by careful study and conscious effort to adequately adjust the visual acting to the play. In various historical epochs, the full and true measure of visual acting in relation to the text has been interpreted differently. In classical (antique) drama, the visual acting is restrained, reduced to a minimum, leaving mostly the text to act on the mind, imagination and sensibility of the audience. The Renaissance era has increased the share of visual acting, even going into caricature in the desire to sufficiently explain and make the meaning of the text and characters comprehensible to the point of banality. The era of romantic theatre has softened the excessive underlining of the text with visual acting. Our era is going to soften the strength in the application of visual acting (game) tending to bring it into harmony with today's tastes and artistic understanding of "the right measure."

Authors: Dojčinović Nikoleta
Published: January 2025

The two contemporary institutions -Belgrade Ballet and Radio Belgrade -have developed at the same time, and the intertwining of their activities is significant in looking at the history of ballet and development of radiophony in Serbia. Considering that the radio is primarily an auditory mass media, and that ballet is an art that predominantly communicates with the audience on a visual level, the basic question arises as to how the image and movement, exclusively through speech, music and noises, are brought to life in the consciousness of the listeners. One of the oldest shows that is still on the reguar program of RTS - Radio Belgrade 1 is the show '' At Two White Pigeons'' ("Kod dva bela goluba") which sheds light on events, places and personalities that have developed Belgrade and Serbia through their work for centuries. This paper investigates the way the Serbian ballet is represented in the show ''At Two White Pigeons", namely how much domestic ballet has been represented in this radio show, how it has been thematically treated, what the role of music is and how the reruns of shows have been treated.

Authors: Tiwari Abhay , Patel Vaishali , Saroj Chitra
Published: January 2025

Background/Aim: Middle-aged adolescent girls and women experience menstruation, a normal and physiologic occurrence. Using the myths and beliefs that were already prevalent, they created their own approach of dealing with the menstrual cycle. Aim of this study was to examine women's readiness to purchase any sanitary product by examining their preferences for the characteristics of sanitary goods used during menstruation. Methods: The utility values and relative weights assigned to various aspects, such as comfort, efficacy, hygiene, etc, have been determined through analysis. Two hundred and ten women who lived on the campus of the Banaras Hindu University were questioned. The demographic features of the respondents, the attributes with their corresponding levels and the relationship between these qualities and the type of approach employed over time were explained using descriptive and Chi-square techniques. Conjoint analysis was employed to ascertain utility value and elicit preferences. Result: Following investigation, findings indicate that synthetic sanitary napkins were used by women more frequently than any other menstrual hygiene products and that inaccessibility and cost were the main barriers to sanitary product use. Demographic factors and the type of sanitary product used, as well as knowledge of innovative methods of menstrual hygiene, were found to be strongly correlated. The results also showed that women place the least value on hygiene and the most value on the type of sanitary product. Conclusion: Women preferred to choose any synthetic sanitary product that is more efficient, safe, pleasant and economical and does not require replacement in less than four hours.

Background/Aim: Leukaemia is a malignant disease of blood cells found in the bone marrow, which can be divided into acute lymphocytic leukaemia and myelocytic leukaemia. Current management of acute leukaemia still uses chemo therapy as the main therapy but has many side effects, therefore a new approach is needed to identify genetic factors involved in leukaemia. The aim of this study was to investigate gene variations that have potential pathogenic properties in leukaemia. Methods: This study used genome-wide association study (GWAS) data obtained from the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) to search for genomic variants associated with leukaemia. The data was then screened using SNPnexus to detect potentially protein-damaging variants. Furthermore, the gene expression of these variants was analysed using the GTEx portal. Results: Of the 2115 genomic variants found, four were deleterious, namely rs12140153, rs140386498, rs757110 and rs2066827, representing four different genes, namely PATJ, MINDY1, ABCC8 and CDKN1B. Alterations in the expression of PATJ, MINDY1, CDKN1B and ABCC8 genes affect the brain and leukaemia development. PATJ maintains brain cell integrity, MINDY1 regulates gene expression, CDKN1B controls the cell cycle and ABCC8 regulates glucose levels. Their deregulation is associated with neurological dysfunction and leukaemia. Variation in allele frequencies showed differences between continents, with rs757110 and rs2066827 having higher expression than rs12140153 and rs140386498. Variant gene expression also varied between tissues, with rs757110 and rs2066827 showing higher expression than rs12140153 and rs140386498. Conclusion: This study successfully identified four genomic variants by harnessing a genomic and bioinformatic database, which are associated with leukemia and demonstrated variations in gene distribution and expression across different populations and tissues.

Authors:   Art·Design Research Institute of Kyung-Hee University, Jung Euitay , Jo Sunok
Published: January 2025

This study analysed the use of generative AI tools in a university design course to evaluate the learning effects and tool perceptions of learners in the design process. The study was conducted by investigating the practice of using AI tools in the design process and the resulting learning experience. In particular, a class based on the double diamond model was taught for each stage of the design process, allowing learners to experience the process of problem exploration, definition, development, and communication through AI tools. A final survey was used to evaluate the usefulness of the generative AI tools, their intention to continue using them, their ability to support design, and the speed and quality of their work. While students rated AI tools as increasing the efficiency of the design process and having a positive impact on the speed and quality of their work, they also tended to perceive a threat to their creativity. The achievement gap between foreign and Korean students was reduced in classes using AI tools, indicating that AI tools can contribute to closing the learning gap. This study highlights that the educational introduction of AI tools in design majors should be designed in a way that promotes creative thinking among learners, and that continuous pedagogical development is needed to consider how and when to use AI tools.

Authors:   Art·Design Research Institute of Kyung-Hee University, Lee Eunhye
Published: January 2025

This study aims to analyze the musical and narrative characteristics of the mash-up technique applied to the representative songs I Dreamed a Dream and On My Own from the musical Les Misérables and to explore its artistic value. By examining how the independent narratives and emotional flows of each song are integrated and expanded through the mash-up, the study investigates whether the combined piece offers listeners a complex and multi-layered musical experience. The findings indicate that the melodic peaks and harmonic resolutions of the two songs effectively express emotional buildup and release within the mash-up structure, thereby transforming the distinct narrative flows into a unified storyline. Additionally, the mash-up technique enhances emotional transitions, serving as a critical creative strategy that deepens audience engagement. This study suggests that mash-ups are not merely a combination of songs but a meaningful tool for reinterpreting existing works and expanding their artistic value. It also hopes to encourage future research on the use of mash-up techniques in various musical theater compositions.

Authors:   Art·Design Research Institute of Kyung-Hee University, Kim Kwon Ho , Kim Jong Ha , Choi Ryan Jongwoo
Published: January 2025

This study explores the potential of integrating generative AI tools into the product design process to enhance creativity and efficiency. AI tools like Midjourney, Vizcom, Magnific, and Photoshop AI were applied across various design stages, including idea generation, sketching, high-resolution rendering, and final editing, to assess their roles. Findings suggest that these tools can go beyond simple assistance to serve as significant collaborators in the design process, providing an environment that enables designers to work more creatively and flexibly. Notably, they streamline the design process by rapidly generating diverse alternatives, especially during ideation and visualization stages. While AI tools show promise in becoming essential components of the design process, detailed tasks like functionality validation and user experience still require the expertise of human designers. Future research will focus on refining collaboration models between AI and designers and introducing text-based AI tools in the research phase to support data-driven design exploration.

Authors: Darmawi Ahmad , Sari Febri Luvita
Published: January 2025

Penelitian ini menganalisis pengaruh penyesuaian speleng gear pada mesin Ring Spinning terhadap konsistensi berat dan nomor benang (Ne) pada produksi benang Ne CMC 24k. Ketidaksesuaian dalam nomor benang dapat berdampak signifikan pada kualitas produk tekstil, yang mendorong perlunya kontrol kualitas yang ketat dalam proses pemintalan. Metode penelitian melibatkan pengambilan sampel benang dari spindel 753 hingga 757, yang diuji sebelum dan sesudah penyesuaian speleng gear untuk menilai efektivitas perbaikan. Prosedur penelitian mencakup pengukuran berat dan nomor benang pada kedua kondisi tersebut serta pengamatan perbedaan antara sisi kanan (R) dan kiri (L) pada setiap spindel. Hasil menunjukkan peningkatan stabilitas Ne, namun masih terdapat variasi antara sisi kanan (R) dan kiri (L) pada beberapa spindel yang tidak sepenuhnya memenuhi standar yang ditetapkan. Temuan ini menggarisbawahi perlunya pemantauan kualitas secara real-time dan penyesuaian parameter produksi untuk mencapai konsistensi benang yang lebih baik. Rekomendasi mencakup penerapan teknologi pengawasan berbasis komputer untuk meningkatkan efisiensi dan kualitas produk secara keseluruhan.

Las aulas educativas son un fiel reflejo de las sociedades cada vez más diversas y desiguales, es por ello que el profesorado precisa de una determinada disposición docente hacia sus estudiantes y su enseñanza que garantice una mayor justicia social. Este artículo describe una investigación instrumental centrada en la adaptación y validación en población española de la Disposition for Culturally Responsive Pedagogy Scale (Whitaker & Valtierra, 2018). El objetivo principal es analizar las características psicométricas de esta escala, que evalúa la disposición docente hacia la Educación Culturalmente Receptiva (ECR). No se conocen o no hemos hallado instrumentos específicos en castellano que analicen la disposición docente hacia esta pedagogía. Se ha utilizado una metodología de corte cuantitativo por medio de un método de encuestas administradas a profesores de diferentes niveles educativos y regiones de España (N = 538). El análisis factorial confirmatorio reveló un ajuste óptimo para una estructura de tres factores: praxis educativa, comunidad y justicia social, tras eliminar dos ítems originales. Los resultados del análisis de fiabilidad indican una consistencia interna adecuada, con índices de Alfa de Cronbach (α = .942) y Omega de McDonald (ω = .943) satisfactorios. Además, se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas respecto a las disposiciones hacia la ECR según el sexo, nivel educativo y especialidad del profesorado, lo que sugiere la relevancia de considerar estas variables al evaluar la disposición docente hacia la ECR en diferentes contextos educativos. En conclusión, el estudio proporciona una primera herramienta válida y fiable para conocer la disposición del profesorado hacia la ECR, contribuyendo así a la mejora de una educación más inclusiva y equitativa.

Derivated products of  pine resin have been recognised as competitive commodities in global trade, increasing the need to use resources more efficiently.  A hand-held tapping machine with small hoe-shape cutters called “mujitek” has been widely applied in Indonesia among efforts to answer this challenge. In this study, a series of  observed (actual) work time data were measured and analysed, adopting lean manufacturing to calculate the basic and standard time of  the work and estimate the work produced on the tapping operation. Work elements were identified based on their contribution to change or transform the product and were categorised as value-added, non-value-added, and special allowance.  Quantitative data on the work productivity in the tapping operation can be used as one fundamental data in determining a work plan to establish a continuous improvement process. The variable fatigue allowances taken into account in this study were standing posture, abnormal posture, muscular energy, atmospheric conditions, and noise.  This study shows that non-value-added work elements (repairing machines, chatting, and smoking) cause inefficiency in tapping operation.  Analysis of  added-value work elements proved that this hand-held tapping machine offers a higher (1.7 times) work productivity than conventional hand-held tapping tools. However, since humans have limitations in the physical, physiological, and mental dimensions that limit their ability to carry out work at a certain level, the discovered work productivity level should also be validated with other thresholds, e.g., physical workload and risk perception.

Karst area is highly susceptible to changes to climate parameters. One of the parameters is rainfall variability. In addition to shaping the condition of water resources, rainfall in the Gunung Sewu karst area determines the nature of crop and livestock of the agriculture sectors―the local population's main economic activities, warranting the significance of the rainfall variability studies. Rainfall variability in karst areas also affects disaster conditions such as drought and floods. However, due to insufficient meteorological data in quality and quantity, there has been no rainfall variability studies conducted in this locality. The research intended to analyze rainfall variability in the Gunung Sewu karst area in 1979‒2013 by utilizing rainfall predictions from satellite images that many scholars had tested in different locations and recognized as having good quality. In the analysis, mean monthly rainfall was calculated, and the trends of annual rainfall and average rainfall intensity, dry and rainy seasons, the number of rainy days, and the effect of ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation) on rainfall were analyzed. The research data were 35 years of daily rainfall records derived from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR). The analysis results showed that the mean rainfall, number of rainy days, and rainfall intensity had an increasing trend. Also, El Niño quantitatively influenced the rain in the Gunung Kidul karst area.
STAKEHOLDERS' MAPPING AND STRATEGY FOR RESTORING PEATLAND FOREST IN WEST TANJUNG JABUNG JAMBI, INDONESIA

Published: January 2025

Peatland forests became the centre of discussions in Indonesia because 33% of 2.4 million hectares burned in 2014. This research aims to describe the stakeholders' position and their logic in choosing a strategy for peatland forest areas. The result shows that nine stakeholders were actively involved in peatland forest restoration in West Tanjung Jabung Regency. Based on categorization, the analysis points out that all stakeholders had occupied key players' position. Further analysis using a ladder of participation criteria found two models of participation, i.e. citizen power and tokenism. However, the value of citizen power is higher than tokenism that is 56% and 44%, respectively. It means that stakeholders should develop partnership and other models in citizen power criteria to reach their targets. It also means that trust is an essential variable in the relationship among stakeholders and should be developed in peatland forest restoration. The consequence of this research is that stakeholders can improve two strategies, i.e. collaborative forest management and community-based forest management.
