The effect of aldicarb, a systemic, soil applied pesticide, on the growth, carbon and phosphate metabolism of the soil-dwelling tomato will pathogen, Posudomonas solanacearum Smith, was studied. The in vitro growth of the organism was significantly affected at 5 and 10 ppm concentrations of the chemical while at I ppm the insecticide did not have much effect on the growth. In presence of C-glucose in the medium, the insecticide treated cells incorporated more of C activity although the cell yields were less than the untreated cells, More Clable was found to have been assimilated in the cold- TCA soluble fraction while the C incorporation was less in the insoluble protein fraction of the aldicarb treated cells. However, the incorporation of C-sodium acetate by these cells was enhanced in the lipid fraction with a reduction in Clable in alcohol soluble, hot-TCA soluble and insoluble fractions. The enhancement in the incorporation of p-labelled disodium hydrogen phosphate by the aldicarb treated cells indicated that the oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain of the bacterium was not affected.

The development of information and communication technology and the improvement of the development and dissemination of smart devices have caused changes in the form of tourism, and the concept of smart tourism has since emerged. In this regard, researches related to smart tourism has been conducted in various fields such as policy implementation and surveys, but there is a lack of research on application reviews. This study collects Trip Advisor application review data in the Google Play Store to identify usage of the application and user satisfaction through Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic modeling. The analysis results in four topics, two of which are positive and the other two are negative. We found that users were satisfied with the application's recommendation system, but were dissatisfied when the filters they set during search were not applied or that reviews were not published after updates of the application. We suggest more categories can be added to the application to provide users with different experiences. In addition, it is expected that user satisfaction can be improved by identifying problems within the application, including the filter function, and checking the application environment and resolving the error occurring during the application usage.
The Apocalypse iconographic sources in Russian murals of the 17th century

The fact of the Dutch Bibles engravings by Borcht and Piscator (Visscher) use in Russian art in the 17th century well studied for a long time. But these ouvrages practically didn`t become the subject of Russian scientists’ research. The Borcht and Piscator Bibles have been reprinted many times with additions and corrections. At some point some of Borcht’s prints became part of the Piscator Bible, replacing earlier graphic cycles and one of them is the Apocalypse. It was the first cycle that Russian artists created by Western European engravings. Studies of Russian monumental painting rarely concern the type of Piscator edition that the artists used. The Piscator and Borcht-Piscator Bibles often serve as the prototype of the same monument, but they have significant differences in the number of scenes and the design of individual compositions. The identification of the differences between the apocalyptic engravings in the Borcht and Piscator editions can outline ways to solve the problem of identifying iconographic sources of apocalyptic cycles in Russian murals of the 17th century. Today this problem is not only not solved, but also insufficiently emphasized.

Authors:   federal state budget educational institution of higher education «Saint Petersburg State University of Culture», Balash Aleksandra N.
Published: October 2023

Currently, museology experts are involved with an intensive discussion aimed at the revision of the principles of museum ethics. To a significant extent, this discussion is related to the revision of the Museums’ Code of Ethics, which is moderated by the ICOM Standing Committee on Ethics. The suggestion could be made that the declared criteria and methods of working on the provisions of the Code of Ethics are associated with the new Museum definition introduced to ICOM statute in 2022. The ethical components of the new Museum definition are related to the changing values and key issues of modern culture. Attempts to revise museum ethics are also defined by the change in the current mission of a museum. The issue under discussion is the relationship between professional and institutional museum ethics. Substitution of the classical ethical paradigm of the museum with the concept of new museum ethics became an essential factor. The connection between the concept of the new museum ethics and museum activism is obvious. Criteria for radical transparency of museum collections and social responsibility to communities are becoming increasingly influential in practical and theoretical museology.

Authors:   federal state institution «Russian State Archive of Scientific and Technical Documentation», Maslova Julia V.
Published: October 2023

The author considers the lubok «Conversation between a professor and a peasant» as an image of two types of cultures – traditional, with ancient Russian roots, and innovative, borrowed from the Western European world. This lubok is an illustration of the theory of the binary nature of Russian culture. The article provides a visual and textual analysis of the folk image. The text of the lubok in the form of questions and answers has a polemical character. Because for the Old Believer culture the lubok has become an instrument of visual polemics and edification in faith, the author for the first time puts forward a hypothesis about the Old Believer origin of the lubok. A source of the text that was subjected to Old Believer satire was V. N. Tatishchev’s essay «A Conversation about the benefits of sciences and colleges».
