Homology Modeling of the Squalus Acanthias AHR1 To Locate Structural Determinants of Function
Authors: Bock Timothy
Published: September 2020

The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that mediates a toxic response to many environmental contaminants. Cartilaginous fishes, due to gene duplication events, express 4 distinct AHR genes. Squalus acanthias AHR1 (SaAHR1) does not bind to typical AHR agonists, including dioxin-like chemicals (DLCs), whereas SaAHR2 binds to DLCs and subsequently upregulates genes containing dioxin responsive elements. Three-dimensional homology models were created based upon both human HIF1α and human HIF2α structural templates. These models yielded different secondary structural characteristics, most notably in the length of the β-strand on the C-terminal end of the ligand binding domain, which is centrally located in the antiparallel β-sheet that makes up a large portion of the ligand binding cavity. Residue A375 is located in a possible hinge area on this β-strand, and the mutation A375C would change this alanine residue in the nonbinding SaAHR1 to its analog in the DLC-binding SaAHR2, which may increase SaAHR1’s binding affinity to DLCs. The SaAHR1 also has a novel diproline motif comprising residues 379 and 380, located on the same β- strand as residue 375. This motif is not known to be found in any other AHR isoforms. Reversion of the diproline motif to proline-leucine, its analogous residues in SaAHR2, did not restore PCB 126 induced activation of a luciferase reporter gene. Epifluorescence microscopy using a heterologous expression system and an eGFP-SaAHR1 DNA construct revealed a nuclear localization unique to this isoform. Further characterization of this non-binding receptor could help to determine species-specific sensitivities to AHR agonists, especially in animals that are unavailable for direct experimentation (i.e.: endangered species).

Application of the Agrimonia eupatoria L. Extract for the Kvases Production
Authors: Miller Yuliya , Golub Olga , Zakharova Karina
Published: September 2020

The article concerns the research of the herb Common Agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria L.)
use in the kvass manufacture, because the plant has a high content of flavoring and biologically active substances (flavonoids, tannins, arbutin, etc.). Researchers used standard, adopted in the brewing and soft drinks industry test methods and methods of processing obtained results. To produce kvass with the best quality characteristics, a man has to use Agrimonia eupatoria L. extract. In order to obtain this extract with the maximum amount of flavoring and biologically active substances (polyphenolic substances, ascorbic acid) a man must macerate 3-5 mm cut grass using purified water as a solvent in a ratio of 1:10 at a temperature of 40 ± 3 °C for 5-6 hours. Agrimonia eupatoria L. extract is an opaque brown liquid with a weak greenish tint, weakly expressed sweet-apricot aroma and taste; the mass fraction of dry substances is 3.0 ± 0.1 %; acidity – 2.5 ± 0.2 units; the content of polyphenolic substances is not less than 13.5 mg / 100 cm3; the content of ascorbic acid – not less than 4.5 mg / 100 cm3 . The authors developed kvass technology, including the preparation of kvass wort and Agrimonia eupatoria L. extract separately, its blending, fermentation, cooling, clarification and bottling. Based on the organoleptic and physical and chemical parameters obtained during the study, the researchers recommended the optimal ratio of kvass wort and Agrimonia eupatoria L.: 90:10 – 80:20. They developed regulated quality indicators of the new kvass: appearance – a transparent foaming liquid with opalescence, without foreign inclusions; color – brown with greenish tones; aroma and taste – refreshing, sweet and sour, bread, with light tones of Agrimonia eupatoria L. extract. The use of an aqueous extract from the herb Agrimonia eupatoria L. in the kvass production enables to get products with original organoleptic characteristics
Canned Products Based on Animal Hearts as Collagen and Ferrum Sources
Authors: Mitryashkina Olga , Shulgina Lydia , Shulgin Yuriy
Published: September 2020

To activate the elastic tissues regeneration, a man needs to receive at least 5 g of such
amino acids as proline and oxyproline, which are involved in the process of the body’s own collagen production, with food every day. The source of collagen can be products made from the hearts of farm animals. High temperature influence destroys collagen, and there is an accumulation of low-molecular peptides that are available to the human body. The article presents the results on the development of new types of canned food based on the farm animal hearts and plant raw materials. The animal hearts are high-protein raw materials in terms of protein content. The fat content does not exceed 3.7 ± 0.5 %, which results in a lower energy value compared to muscle tissue. Proteins in animal hearts are balanced in terms of amino acid composition; the content of collagen in them is 4.8–4.5 %, which is significantly higher than its amount in muscle tissue proteins. The researchers developed technology and recipes of canned food based on animal hearts and vegetable raw materials. The mass fraction of hearts in canned food recipes is 60.0–65.0 %. The additional components were beans and vegetables. Developed canned food made on the basis of animal hearts and vegetable raw materials had high organoleptic characteristics: protein content was 10.7–12.6 %; fat – 7.6–9.1 %. 100 g of canned food contains 0.85 ± ± 0.5 g of collagen-forming amino acids, which allows the human body to provide 16.5 ± ± 0.5 % of the daily need for them. Canned food is an additional source of iron (the content of which is 2.9 ± 0.3 g/100 g). A man recommends canned foods based on animal hearts and vegetable raw materials as specialized products for dietary and preventive nutrition of people of older age groups and persons with reduced processes of elastic tissue regeneration.

Perilaku merupakan hasil kombinasi dari berbagai faktor, baik faktor internal maupun faktor eksternal. Faktor internal merupakan karakteristik bawaan yang dimiliki oleh seseorang, seperti kecerdasan, tingkat emosional, jenis kelamin, pengetahuan, sikap dan sebagainya. Sedangkan faktor eksternal merupakan lingkungan sekeliling yang dapat berupa lingkungan fisik, sosial, budaya, pendidikan, politik atau ekonomi Perilaku di bawah standar dan kondisi di bawah standar merupakan penyebab langsung suatu kecelakaan dan penyebab utama dari kesalahan manajemen. Di PT. Glow yang bergerak dibidang koveksi, belum ada sistem manajemen K3 yang nyata/jelas sehingga membuat para pekerja masih ada yang belum tahu tentang perilaku aman K3. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode Antecedent Behavior Consequences yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan gambaran dengan mempelajari mengenai faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi perilaku K3 menggunakan cara pendekatan, observasi atau pengumpulan data sekaligus pada suatu saat (point time approach) di bagian jahit PT. Glow. Sehingga menjadi upaya pencegahan kecelakaan kerja secara proaktif yang berfokus pada perilaku berbahaya yang berpeluang menyebabkan terjadinya kecelakaan dalam bekerja. Hasil dari penelitian bivariat didapatkan tidak ada hubungan antara pengetahuan dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,208) , ada hubungan antara persepsi dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,005), tidak ada hubungan antara sikap dengan perilaku K3 (p value (0,116), tidak ada hubungan antara tingkat pendidikan dengan perilaku K3 (p value 0,245). Dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa dari empat variabel yang diteliti tentang hubungannya dengan perilaku K3, hanya persepsi yang mempunyai hubungan atau terdapat perbedaan bermakna dengan perilaku K3 di bagian jahit PT. Glow. Untuk itu, perusahaan harus meningkatkan perhatian terkait segi keselamatan kerja agar angka kecelakaan kerja dapat terus ditekan pada tahun-tahun yang akan datang. Perhatian ini dapat berupa perbaikan manajemen terkait kebijakan K3, serta membangun komitmen bersama seluruh karyawan dalam melaksanakan program K3.
