An inquiry into divergent literacy practices among communities resident in Nandi County
Authors: Kitur Joseph Patrick
Published: March 2024

The study is an inquiry into divergent literacy practices among communities resident in Nandi County. This means that the study will explore the different literacy literacies among multicultural and multilingual residents in the County. In this study, a purposive stratified sample of 60 rural-urban mixes of intercultural group locations in Nandi County comprising a purposive selection of 20 respondents in each location using the snowball technique was used, face-to-face interviews, literacy diaries, observation, video with inbuilt audio recording, and documentation. The results of the study indicated significant ways in which multilingual residents of Nandi County use literacies in their everyday lives. For example, it was established from interviews and observations made in churches in Nandi County that the church had elaborate literacies evident in its programmes and activities. For instance, the Sunday school curriculum was structured and developed into lessons that children were taken through. In some churches, the lessons were structured to fit the children’s ages, that is, lower and upper classes. It was concluded that the skills required for navigating and performing in today’s information age invite us to focus on a wide range of literacies. It is evident that individuals and groups always go beyond the literacy they possess when confronted with situations that require them to act or solve a problem. Consequently, this calls for inquiry into literacy practices that are unique to each setting. It was recommended that individuals and groups are not limited to the knowledge and skills they possess only, and therefore, what they do with literacies should be investigated.

Потенциальные возможности культуры реализуются на физиологическом уровне, включающий процесс фотосинтеза. В исследованиях были изучены особенности формирования и работы фотосинтетического аппарата люпина узколистного в условиях степной зоны Северного Казахстана в зависимости от агроприемов: сроки посева, нормы высева и применение регуляторов роста. Опыты проводились на базе Северо-Казахстанской сельскохозяйственной опытной станции в 2023 году. Объектом служил среднеспелый сорт узколистного люпина Орловский кормовой.

В статье представлены результаты изучения показателей фотосинтетической деятельности: ассимиляционная поверхность, накопление сухого вещества, фотосинтетического потенциала, чистая продуктивности фотосинтеза. Определение данных показателей позволило объективно оценить их зависимость от элементов агротехники, а также влияние фотосинтетической активности на продуктивность люпина. Исследования показали, что обработка регуляторами роста Мегамикс Семена до посева (1,5 л/т) и по вегетации Мегамикс Бор (1 л/т) обеспечивают максимальные показатели в фазу плодообразования - по ассимиляционной поверхности (48,5 см2), фотосинтетического потенциала (55,25 тыс.м2 х сутки/га), в фазу созревания - по сухой биомассе (3,91 г/растение), чистой продуктивности фотосинтеза (96,1 г/м2 в сутки). Посев 5 мая с нормой 1,0 млн.в.с. был оптимальным в условиях засушливого климата для формирования продуктивности – 9,7 ц/га. В данных опытах отмечается положительная корреляция урожайности с площадью листовой поверхности (r= 0,87-0,91) и накоплением сухого вещества (r= 0,79-0,96.)

Published: March 2024

Urban soil is one of the most polluted components of the environment. An increase in anthropogenic load on urban soils, as well as pollution by various wastes, the accumulation and compaction of particularly dangerous non-recyclable substances, covering the soil surface with a waterproof layer during construction provoke a violation of the structure and a change in the physical and chemical composition of the soil.

Soil serves as a natural filter that absorbs and neutralizes toxic substances released by anthropogenic influences. This activity occurs at different levels depending on the mechanical and granulometric characteristics of the soil. Therefore, when studying the state of pollution of urban soils, it is necessary to pay attention to the species composition of soils.

This article provides an assessment of the granulometric characteristics of soils in Astana. In the city of Astana, soil samples were analyzed from the microdistricts of Saryarka, Baikonur, Almaty, Yesil, Nura (60 points in total). The soils of the territory of the city of Astana are represented by the following types: dark chestnut soils and their varieties, meadow-chestnut soils and their varieties, solonchaks and urbanozems; according to the granulometric composition of the soil, they are represented by heavy, medium and light loams.

Данная статья отражает влияние наиболее распространенных в Акмолинской области возбудителей вирусных заболеваний на продуктивность картофеля. Цель исследования - изучить влияние вирусов на продуктивность сортов и селекционных линий картофеля в сравнении с неинфицированными клонами. Методы включали: тестирование селекционного материала картофеля на вирусоносительство с помощью визуального наблюдения и иммуноферментного анализа (ИФА), учет продуктивности и структуры урожая. Основные результаты показали, что продуктивность естественнно инфицированных растений снижалась по сравнению со здоровыми растениями на 4-80% в зависимости от вируса и генотипа. При этом зависимость количества клубней от пораженности вирусами не установлена. Выявлено уменьшение продуктивности сорта картофеля Xisen 6 на 80% в результате воздействия ВСЛК. Во время исследования были обнаружены симптомы YВК у сорта Альянс и селекционной линии 17-223-10 в виде пятнистости, мозаики, у сорта Colomba в виде деформации листьев, появления желтых пятен, задержки роста и уменьшения размера листьев, у линий 17-216-9 и 17-250-10 листья имели желтую окраску. У сортов Акжар и Тустеп, подтвердивших инфицированность ХВК методом ИФА, выявлено уменьшение тургора и смыкание долей. Растения сорта Queen Anne, пораженные ВСЛК имели скрученные нижние листья, на кончиках листьев появлялись хлоротичные пятна. Симптомы легкой морщинистости проявлялись на селекционной линии 4-08-02, инфицированной SВК. Проведенные исследования позволяют использовать отобранные клоны в вирусологических и диагностических исследованиях, а также в качестве исходного материала для селекции и первичного семеноводства картофеля. Молекулярно-генетические исследования штаммового состава позволят в будущем более детально охарактеризовать казахстанские изоляты исследуемых вирусов картофеля.

Published: March 2024

Background: Dermatomyositis (DM) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by muscle and skin inflammation, a part of the idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM). Even though the disease is idiopathic, there are multifactorial factors related to dermatomyositis. This care report aimed to describe a DM case in a male patient to increase the knowledge and management of DM patients.
Case description: A 44-year-old Filipino male was referred to the emergency department (ED) of Siloam Hospital Mataram complaining of muscle pain and weakness with skin rashes 3 weeks before admission. Before the skin rash started, he had enlarged femoral lymph nodes in both thighs. The patient was afebrile with normal vital signs and was prescribed ibuprofen and amoxicillin. After that, he experienced skin rashes around his neck and the back of his ears with minimal pruritus.  The symptoms worsened, making him unable to open his mouth and hard to breathe. In the ED, he also threw up dark-colored blood twice. Supporting examination showed elevated transaminase, increased LDH, and creatinine kinase. Biopsy results showed a histologic pattern of dermatomyositis. During hospitalization, he received a high-dose systemic steroid, antibiotic, and symptomatic treatment. He was discharged with a good outcome and planned to continue medical treatment in his country.
Conclusion: Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic autoimmune disease involving skin and internal organs. It is a multifactorial disease yet with unclear etiopathogenesis. Specific treatment guidelines for DM are not yet established, but initial systemic corticosteroid and additional steroid-sparring agents may exhibit good outcomes.

Authors: Odilia Dea Novena  , Gusti Ayu Vina Mery Giovani
Published: March 2024

Introduction: Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. Syphilis in pregnancy is often asymptomatic, so early detection of syphilis is needed to prevent a poor pregnancy outcome and transmission of infection to the baby.

Case: A 25-year-old woman, pregnant with her second child at 24 weeks of gestation, came without any health complaint for a routine prenatal check-up. On syphilis screening, reactive TPHA and RPR titer of 1:2 were found. The patient was diagnosed with syphilis infection in pregnancy. The patient has been treated with Benzathine Benzylpenicillin 2.4 million IU intramuscular injection once a week for 3 consecutive weeks.

Conclusion: Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection that infects pregnant women. Treponemal transmission in pregnant women was detected early in the ninth week of pregnancy. The diagnosis of syphilis was made by dark-field microscopy, treponemal antibody tests (TPHA, FTA-ABS), and non-treponemal antibody tests (VDRL, RPR). Penicillin is the gold standard therapy for syphilis in pregnant women.

Authors: Dewi Gotama  , Prima Sanjiwani Saraswati Sudarsa  , Herman Saputra
Published: March 2024

Background: Pustular psoriasis in children is one of the clinical variants of psoriasis. It is classified into generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP) and localized pustular psoriasis. The aetiology of psoriasis in children has not been known but is believed to be multifactorial. Nail psoriasis rarely occurs in children who suffer from skin psoriasis, with an incidence lower than that reported in adults. The diagnosis is generally made from the clinical and histological examination. The choice of therapy depends on the severity of the disease. Until now, there have been no specific guidelines for the management of psoriasis in children.

Case report: A-15-years-old Balinese girl presenting with erythema, confluent scaly plaques over the trunk and extremities with pustules localized on the lower extremity. She had a history of fever before the lesions appear. Right third digital nails examination showed subungual hyperkeratosis and onycholysis. Positive auspitz sign and karsvlek phenomena were found. Biopsy result suitable for psoriasis. The patient got improvement after treated with methotrexate tablet orally and desoximetasone cream topically within four weeks without any side effect.

Conclusion: Combination therapy with methotrexate tablet and desoximetasone cream give an effective result. However, the safety and side effects of methotrexate in children still need further monitoring.

Published: March 2024

Buschke Lowenstein tumor (BLT)/giant condyloma acuminatum is a rare variant of sexually transmitted infection caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) type 6 and 11. HPV has its viral factors that exist to avoid immune surveillance and control through 1) infecting only the basal layer of the epithelium, 2) downregulation of host immunity, 3) suppression of proinflammatory proteins essential for viral clearance. The incidence of BLT/GCA is estimated to be 0.1% in the general population, with males having 2.7 times increased risk than females. The definitive diagnosis of BLT/GCA is typical morphology along with histopathological examination, and/or viral serotyping. Treatment of BLT/GCA requires a multidisciplinary approach, determined based on age, the extent of the lesion, organ involvement, and organ location.

Authors: Nyoman Suryawati  , Herman Saputra
Published: March 2024

Introduction: Lower extremity ulcers often create diagnostic challenges and influence patient morbidity and mortality. The most common causes are venous insufficiency, arterial insufficiency, and neuropathic. Ulcers associated with systemic condition often face diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. We report a necrotic lower extremity ulcer caused by calciphylaxis in a patient with chronic renal failure.

Case: We reported a 48-year-old Javanese woman, complained of painful lower extremities ulcers since 1.5 months ago. The patient had a history of renal failure and hypertension, undergone routine hemodialysis since 13 years ago, and used Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) since one year ago. Dermatology status on dorsum pedis sinister as well as cruris dexter and sinister showed multiple ulcers on livid skin covered by black eschar, accompanied by tenderness. Laboratory results showed anemia (Hb 7.6), hypoalbuminemia (2.7), increased serum urea level (170.4 mg/dl), increased serum creatinine (11.23 mg/dl), increased calcium (10.4 mg/dl), high inorganic phosphorus (8.5 mg/dl) and high parathyroid hormone (2,164). BOF examination showed abdominal calcification, while radiographic examination on cruris dexter et sinister showed soft tissue calcification and osteoporosis. Histopathology result supported the presence of calciphylaxis. The patient was diagnosed with stage V chronic renal failure, hypertension, and calciphylaxis caused by secondary hyperparathyroidism. She was managed by low calcium and phosphate diet, lanthanum, paracetamol, folic acid, adalat oros, captopril and wound debridement.

Conclusion: Calciphylaxis is rare phenomenon of cutaneous necrosis associated with end-stage renal disease. Control of end-stage renal disease may be an important factor for treatment of calciphylaxis and patient with calciphylaxis usually had a poor prognosis.

A prisão em flagrante é uma medida crucial no enfrentamento à criminalidade, desempenhando papel fundamental na preservação da ordem pública e na garantia da segurança da sociedade. O estudo tem como objetivo analisar possíveis violações em prisões em flagrante delito realizadas pela Guarda Municipal metropolitana de Palmas, Tocantins. O estudo exploratório-descritivo utilizou métodos qualitativos, com pesquisa bibliográfica em fontes jurídicas e documental sobre a Guarda Municipal Metropolitana de Palmas. Analisou-se a legislação e relatórios de prisões em flagrante, com dados extraídos dos sistemas PPE/SINESP e eProc, focando no período de julho a dezembro de 2023. As prisões efetuadas pela Guarda foram examinadas, e as decisões judiciais nas audiências de custódia foram avaliadas quanto à sua legalidade. O estudo identificou a atuação concreta e relevante da Guarda Municipal de Palmas, Tocantins nas prisões em flagrante delito, indicando que a maioria delas foi convertida em liberdade provisória com restrições. Somente duas foram convertidas em prisões preventivas, entendendo o judiciário, portanto, que as alegações e justificações para manutenção da prisão cautelar não foram apresentadas. Ademais algumas queixas de excessos e realizações de diligências têm sido apresentadas contra a Guarda Metropolitana, indicando para possíveis descumprimento aos princípios constitucionais e direitos fundamentais, bem como, a execução de atribuições que fogem a legislação.As Guardas Municipais no Brasil, reconhecidas como órgãos de segurança pública com funções específicas, têm gerado debates sobre suas competências. Os tribunais superiores têm esclarecido essas funções, incluindo a capacidade de realizar prisões em flagrante, respeitando os limites legais. Ainda há discussões sobre as condições para tais prisões, mas está claro que as Guardas não devem realizar atividades de policiamento ostensivo ou investigativo. A formação jurídica contínua dos guardas é essencial para garantir a legalidade e a confiança da comunidade nas suas ações.

PEMIKIRAN KRITIK SANAD HADIS
Authors: Sahputra Hery
Published: March 2024

Hadith sourced from the Prophet Muhammad in the form of words, deeds and takrir. Hadith can be accepted as dalil in Islam, if the Hadith meets the criteria of Sahih Hadith or Hasan Hadith. This status is determined by the sanad and eyes of a Hadith. The function of Hadith as the second source of Islamic law aims to describe everything that is conveyed in the Koran which is global, vague and concise. Therefore, the Koran and hadith become a unified guideline for Muslims.According to the Decree of the scholars and critics of Hadith, a hadith can be c to be valid in terms of sanad, if it is continuous with its sanad, fairness, dabit, safety and prevention of Hadith and its narrators from syaz and 'illat. Meanwhile, from an observational perspective, a hadith must not contradict the Koran, with a stronger Hadith, historical facts and common sense. Hadith is an explanation of the Koran, so the authenticity of Hadith is very necessary both in terms of sanad and matan. The position of Hadith as the second source of law requires a very deep research to avoid forgery in a Hadith.
Hadis Tentang Eksistensi Allah SWT
Authors: Siregar Idris
Published: March 2024

Efforts to prove the existence of God is an important endeavor, not only to convince other people (read: atheists and agnostics) that God exists rationally, but also to pave the way for claims to the truth of revelation, if the arguments are strong. However, efforts to prove the existence of God through philosophy are also not without risk, because if that effort fails, in the sense that it does not have strong and irrefutable arguments, then it becomes a reason for an atheist or agnostic to stick to his stance: not believing in the existence of God. The hadith about the existence/form of Allah SWT after being studied and traced from the path of Imam Bukhari and Ahmad is sourced from Imran bin Husein with continued sanad and tsiqqah, starting from the initial sanad to the end of the sanad. Likewise from the point of view of the matan it also looks authentic because there is no apparent conflict with the Qur'an. In understanding this hadith, the form of Allah SWT described in the hadith is monotheism and the beginning and the end.
Pemahaman Hadis Tentang Mencukur Alis (studi Analisis Hadis Dalam Kitab Sunan An-Nasa’i)
Authors: Akbar Insan

This study aims to discuss eyebrow embroidery in the perspective of hadith. This research is a qualitative type by applying literature study. The results and discussion of this study include an overview of eyebrow embroidery, a review of the hadith about namaṣ (shaving or plucking the eyebrows) and the relevance of the hadiths about shaving the eyebrows in relation to today's concrete reality. This study concluded that shaving the eyebrow hair is haram if it is completely shaved or removed, eyebrow embroidery or eyebrow tattoo because it can remove the original structure of the eyebrows and have a bad impact on health. This is what is said in the hadith to change Allah's creation. This research is expected to provide benefits for a wide audience of Muslims, especially women. It is admitted that this research has limitations in presenting the hadith related to Sulam Alis. This study recommends that further research be conducted on the hadith about Sulam Alis which has a correlation with contemporary concepts.
Hubungan Keimanan Dengan Imunitas Dalam Persfektif Hadis

Published: March 2024

This study discusses the quality of the Hadith about the morning prayer in Sunan Ibnu Majah, how are the views of the scholars regarding the increase in the descent of faith and immunity and what is the relationship between faith and immunity. This research was conducted to find out how the quality of the Hadith regarding the morning prayer in Sunan Ibnu Majah, how faith affects the body's immunity through the views of Ulama and research. The method used in the research that I will discuss is using the thematic method (Maudu'i), namely by collecting hadiths related to the title of the theme to be studied, and in this study the authors used library research, namely by using references- References from literature that are relevant and in accordance with this study, namely: in the form of writings or books, these sanad Ḥadīṡ fulfill the criteria for sanad shahih. As for the assessment of matan, Ḥadīṡ does not conflict with the Qur'an and Ḥadīṡ shaḥīḥ, does not conflict with reason and law. However, when viewed from a single isnad, the matan of Sunan Ibn Majah above is a dhaif matan. However, after the I'tibar sanad was carried out, the matan of Sunan Ibnu Majah's Hadith above rose to become shahih lighairihi because it was strengthened by the authentic sanad and matan. Thus, Sunan Ibn Majah's Hadith can be used as Hujjah. The relationship between the ups and downs of faith and immunity is that immunity in the body will follow the state of faith in us. Therefore it is highly recommended to strengthen our faith by dhikr, pray 5 times a day and draw closer to Allah so that the Immunity within us can be stable. If all of that is not done it will affect the quality of immunity

Fumigant effects of the essential oils from Laurus nobilis L., 1753 (Laurales: Lauraceae), Mentha piperita L., 1753 and Lavandula x intermedia Emeric ex Loisel, 1828 (Lamiales: Lamiaceae) were determined using the lesser grain borer [Rhyzopertha dominica (Fabricius, 1792) (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae)], an important pest species of stored grains. The experiments were conducted in the 2021 in the Department of Crop Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Malatya Turgut Özal University. The experiments were conducted in a controlled-climate chamber at 27 ± 1°C, 50 ± 10% RH and in the dark. The fumigant effects of essential oils were determined at five concentrations (1, 5, 20, 50 and 200 μl/L air) with larva, pupa and adult stages of R. dominica. The highest fumigant effect was with R. dominica larvae was complete mortality with 200 μl/L L. nobilis essential oil and for the adults, 200μl/L of either L. nobilis and M. piperita essential oil also caused complete mortality. However, the complete mortality of pupal stage was not obtained and the highest mortality was 49% with L. nobilis. As a result, it is considered that both L. nobilis and M. piperita essential oils have the potential to be used as effective biofumigants for stored product pests.

Unraveling the role of inert biomass in membrane aerated biofilm reactors for simultaneous nitrification and denitrification
Authors: Ghasemi Maryam , Chang Sheng , Sivaloganathan Sivabal
Published: March 2024

This study presents an innovative 2D spatio-temporal model that sheds light on the intricate formation of biofilms, incorporating two essential biomass decay pathways: cell lysis and endogenous respiration. The model encompasses heterotrophic bacteria (HB), anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria (AHB), and autotrophic bacteria (AB), offering a comprehensive understanding of multi-species biofilm development. Through meticulous simulations, we explore the primary mechanisms behind inert biomass formation in biofilms, revealing the key roles played by the lysis of HB, AHB, and AB, as well as the endogenous respiration of HB. Moreover, the simulations reveal how species of higher abundance contribute significantly to inert biomass generation, reshaping our understanding of biofilm dynamics. Crucially, this study highlights the indispensability of considering biofilm inert biomass when modeling the nitrification and denitrification behaviors of a membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR). The distribution of oxygen and acetate across biofilm thickness is remarkably different when inert biomass is factored in, underscoring the necessity for a more holistic approach to modeling biofilm behavior. With the introduction of the inert biomass inclusive biofilm model, our simulations explore the interactive effects of key process conditions - bulk concentrations of oxygen ($O_{\infty}$), ammonium nitrogen ($N_{1\infty}$), acetate ($A_{\infty}$), and biofilm thickness - on the nitrification and denitrification performance of MABR. A compelling correlation emerges between higher bulk concentrations of oxygen and ammonium nitrogen and optimal nitrification rates, achieving an impressive range of 0.3 to 1.1 g ammonium/$m^{2}/d. Delving into denitrification, we observe that high $O_{\infty}$, low $N_{1\infty}$, and either high or low $A_{\infty}$ levels impede AHB formation and consequently hinder denitrification. Our findings provide a roadmap for achieving simultaneous nitrification and denitrification, contingent on specific conditions: $10[gm^{-3}] < O_{\infty} < 15[gm^{-3}]$, $12[gm^{-3}] < N_{1\infty} < 20[gm^{-3}]$, $A_{\infty}$ ranging from $3[gm^{-3}]$ to $12[gm^{-3}]$, and a biofilm thickness $> 1.4[mm]$. While our study reveals promising avenues for simultaneous nitrification and denitrification, denitrification rates still lag behind nitrification rates under the same conditions. As a result, we advocate for further investigations to devise strategies that can enhance denitrification in MABR systems. In conclusion, this study advances our knowledge of biofilm dynamics by introducing a comprehensive model and illuminating the key factors driving nitrification and denitrification performance in MABRs. These findings pave the way for improved biofilm engineering and wastewater treatment strategies, opening new horizons for sustainable environmental practices.

Published: March 2024

The legal system of any civilized society is built on the principles of justice. Unfortunately, Pakistan's legal system is unable to keep up with the demand. Approximately, two million cases are under trial in Pakistani courts. In Pakistan, justice has become both a dream and an impossible goal. The only practice followed in Pakistan is a delayed. The main goal of this article is to highlight why justice is taking so long. Complex rules, outdated laws that don't work, the way judges and lawyers think, and a backlog of cases in Pakistan's higher and lower courts all add to how long it takes to get justice. This paper discusses about why the courts in Pakistan take so long and what can be done to fix the problems they cause. This study examines the relationship between the growing backlog of cases and the development of injustice. This article also discusses about how slow justice affects both society as a whole and the people who are going to court. This article concludes with suggestions to make an effective Justice system of Pakistan.
Capacity of Minor’s Contracts under the Contract Act in Pakistan: A Critical Appraisal
Authors: Hussain Nadir , Fatima Samza
Published: March 2024

According to Section 10 of the Contract Act, 1872 (CA), an agreement concluded by the parties is only enforceable where the consent of the parties is free with their competence. Section 11 indicates that minors lack the legal competence to enter into contracts. CA specifically highlight the effects if the contract is entered into by the vitiating factor provided under sections 19, 19A and 20 but does not suggest any inference about the contracts of minors. In this regard the Privy Council (PC) in its verdict of Mohori Bibee v. Dharmodas Ghose answer this proposition and interpreted the CA and declared that contracts by the minors are ab initio void neither the contracts are void nor voidable. As to this interpretation contracts of minors cannot be enforced against them and nobody can claim restitution under section 64 as voidable contract and under section 65 as void contract. Since the courts accepted the above interpreted rule in stricto meaning as unquestionable. This article suggests that the PC’s interpretation in the Mohori Bibee (MB) case of CA is problematic, and its creation of new type of contract as void ab initio is not supported by CA. Embargo on the minors to contract or seek remedy need urgent judicial reinterpretation or reforms in legislation in Pakistan. In this paper doctrinal methodology is applied.

Authors: Rahayu Fadilah Siti , Risman Asep , Firdaus Iwan , Haningsih Luna
Published: March 2024

The study investigates the critical factors affecting financial behavior in Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). It analyzes the role of financial literacy, attitudes, and financial technology (Fintech) on financial management behavior among 1.1 million DKI Jakarta MSME stakeholders in 2020 through random sampling. The study reveals that heightened financial literacy positively influences financial management behavior. A solid foundation in financial knowledge, encompassing personal and corporate finance, leads to improved financial practices. This validates theories about cognitive biases, heuristics, and practical financial decision-making. Additionally, it emphasizes the pivotal role of positive financial attitudes in shaping financial management behavior. Stakeholders with constructive attitudes, such as financial self-control and proactive financial approaches, make sound financial decisions. This aligns with theories of planned behavior, which underscore attitudes in guiding future financial actions. Conversely, the influence of financial technology (Fintech) on MSME financial behavior is limited, primarily due to a lack of awareness and understanding among small and micro-enterprise operators regarding Fintech products and services. This study underscores the importance of promoting financial literacy, nurturing positive financial attitudes, and enhancing Fintech awareness among MSMEs. It offers actionable insights for policymakers, financial institutions, and business support organizations, enabling them to bolster MSMEs’ financial knowledge and practices, thereby supporting their role as economic powerhouses.

The aims of this study were to evaluate the microwave drying (MWD) process in radish slices (Raphanus sativus L.) and to select optimal conditions to obtain high quality and nutritious snacks. Mathematical modelling of drying kinetics, energy efficiency and quality of final product (color, antioxidant capacity, total polyphenols, flavonoids and ascorbic acid contents) were determined at 90, 270 and 450 W. The kinetic parameters followed increasing tendency with microwave power (MWP). The Midilli–Kucuk model presented the best fit simulating experimental drying curves and it was used to model the generalized drying curve for the whole MWP range of the performed experiments. High MWP increased the mass transfer and the effective moisture diffusivities, and shortened the drying time until 70.73%. Working at 90W resulted the best MWD treatment that would allow obtaining a radish snack with suitable color, nutritional quality and energy consumption.
