Safety Assessment on Isolated Cannabidiol (CBD) as a Novel Food for Use in Food Supplements (RP427)
Authors:   Food Standards Agency,   Food Standards Scotland
Published: August 2024

An application was submitted to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Standards Scotland (FSS) in February 2021 from EIHA Projects GmbH (“the applicant”) for the authorisation of isolated cannabidiol (CBD) as described in RP427, as a novel food. This is a joint application from EIHA associated product partners pertaining to a novel food which is to be prepared and used according to the specification set out within this document. It must be noted that any authorisation subsequent to this application pertains solely to the novel food and not to any proposed uses as an ingredient in any other products.

The novel food is a >98% pure, hemp-derived CBD isolate which is intended to be used in hemp oil as a food supplement for adults.

For CBD a provisional Acceptable Daily Intake (ADI) of 10 mg/day for a healthy 70kg adult has been published by the FSA and was considered in assessing this novel food. The provisional ADI (section 2.7) was recommended, subject to the existing advice that certain populations do not consume CBD, due to remaining data gaps and residual uncertainties concerning the safety of CBD for these groups of consumers. These contraindications would also apply to this novel food.

To support the FSA and FSS in their evaluation of the application, the Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes (ACNFP) were asked to review the safety dossier and supplementary information provided by the applicant. The Committee did not consider any potential health benefits or claims arising from consuming the food, as the focus of the novel food assessment is to ensure the food is safe, and not putting consumers at a nutritional disadvantage.

The Committee concluded that the applicant had provided sufficient information to assure the novel food, an isolated CBD as detailed in application RP427, was safe under the proposed conditions of use. The anticipated intake levels and the proposed use in food supplements was not considered to be nutritionally disadvantageous.
Problematika Cerai Ghoib dan Upaya Hukumnya
Authors: Ristianawati Eka
Published: August 2024

The purpose of this study is to review what are the problems in ghoib divorce and how legal remedies can be taken by the defendant/respondent against the ghoib divorce decision. The type of research used is descriptive. This means that the research will be discussed in the form of a presentation that is elaborated carefully and thoroughly. In this case, the explanation of Ghoib's divorce begins with the conditions, summons, trials, and legal remedies against Ghoib's divorce decision. The result of this study is that, in the technical delivery of the summons, there may be mistakes or negligence on the part of the substitute bailiff, namely the summons is not delivered to the parties as usual. Second, there is a deliberate intention on the part of the husband (applicant) or plaintiff (wife) who deliberately conceals the address/identity of the Respondent or the defendant. Of course, this intentionality is based on the applicant's motive to escape from his rights and obligations after the divorce. The solution of the above two problems is the first: the court first summons the Respondent (wife) or Terggat (husband) to the last address or residence mentioned in the application before the Panel of Judges summons him through notice and the mass media. And the legal remedy if one of the parties objects to the result of Ghoib's divorce decision is to apply for a review.

Smartphones na escola: aplicativos para aprendizagem de química e determinação de grau brix e antocianinas no café
Authors:   , Leonardo Francisco Anésio Roza
Published: August 2024

O café é umas das bebidas mais consumidas no mundo. Em sua composição química estão presentes compostos aromáticos que além de conferir pigmentação aos frutos de café, também são responsáveis por atividades biológicas, como a manutenção da memória. Alguns métodos são descritos na literatura para determinar as atividades biológicas dos compostos aromáticos presentes no café. No entanto, devido ao alto custo de equipamentos e dos reagentes necessários para a realização destas práticas, fica inviável a demonstração dos procedimentos citados nas escolas públicas para que haja uma relação do conteúdo com o ensino do Química. Portanto, é necessário pensar em alternativas tecnológicas visando uma melhor aprendizagem do ensino da Química. O tema orientador deste projeto é “café” e antocianinas. O objetivo é trabalhar o tema gerador no conteúdo de Química Orgânica ao mesmo tempo realizando uma abordagem do conteúdo de Química ao mundo tecnológico. Para isto, serão realizadas práticas e utilização de recursos digitais disponíveis para determinação de antocianinas em amostras de cafés comuns e especiais produzidos na cidade de Espera Feliz- MG. Considerando que os alunos possuem recursos tecnológicos, como por exemplo smartphones, tabletes e notebooks, para realização destes experimentos será utilizado o aplicativo de celulares PhotoMetrix, um espectrômetro de mão que realiza a determinação das substâncias através de imagens extraídas de amostras diluídas de cafés. Realizou-se também a Cromatografia de Camada Delgada (CDD) e extratos de amostras isolados de frutos de café. Por fim a utilização do programa de software IMAGE J, sendo utilizado na captura de imagens automatizadas e desta forma realizar calibrações através de gráficos desses compostos presentes nas amostras de cafés analisadas.

Propõe-se através de uma pesquisa qualitativa de caráter exploratório compreender o processo de racionalização do trabalho e sua influência sobre os funcionários da autarquia. Sob esta ótica é possível observar as investidas neoliberais do Estado e a pressão do capital financeiro sobre as políticas sociais e seus espaços de efetivação no Brasil, principalmente a partir da expansão do capitalismo no país e da adoção do processo de racionalização do trabalho como norte para a consolidação do mercado interno junto aos países de capitalismo central. Nesse sentido, o avanço da modernização conservadora implementada no seio do INSS vai impactar diretamente sobre o trabalho e configurar uma afronta às conquistas da classe trabalhadora, principalmente no que tange às relações de trabalho, a flexibilização das leis trabalhistas, a precarização do emprego e a redução da proteção social oferecida aos trabalhadores Palavras chave: Trabalho; Precarização; INSS.
External Debt and Economic Growth Nexus in Somalia: 1990 - 2021
Authors: Ga’al Hassan Osman , Ali Abdirashid Abdalla Sheikh
Published: August 2024

Purpose: The study aimed to empirically investigate the effect of external debt on economic growth in Somalia from the period of 1990 to 2021.
Methodology: The study was conducted based on an ex-post facto research design with a focus on longitudinal design. The study fully used quantitative research to evaluate the secondary data for scientific evaluation and to determine the conclusions for the objectives. Augmented Dickey Fuller Test (ADF) was used to examine the stationarity properties of the time series before analysis. Co-integration techniques developed by Johansen (1988) and Johansen and Juselius (1990) and Error Correction Model (ECM) were used to examine the long-run and short-run association between external debt and economic growth respectively. Multiple regression analysis was also done to capture the impact of external debt and economic growth in Somalia from 1990 to 2021.
Findings: According to our research findings, Somalia's economic growth has been adversely affected by its external debt, both in the short-run and long-run, over the past three decades. The impact of external debt on Somalia's economic growth has been found to be negative and statistically significant.
Unique Contribution to theory, Practice and Policy: Firstly, based on our findings, the study recommends that Somali government should avoid borrowing from commercial sources due to the fact that commercial sources have higher interest rate and short maturity periods than multilateral sources. Secondly, the study recommends Federal government of Somalia to launch tight borrowing strategies, external financing management and stimulating economic policies in order to avoid ill effects of external debt and debt crisis in the future. Lastly, there is a need for the Somali government to increase the possibility of easily data accessibility in order to help economists, researchers and all interested parts to be able to use them in an advanced level to contribute to more accurate and reliable findings for the improvement of Somali economic situation today and in the future.

Canibalismo, hibridación y denuncia
Authors: López Izquierdo Ivan
Published: August 2024

En este artículo se abordan varias obras que relacionan el cuerpo con el canibalismo como metáfora de denuncia. El canibalismo continúa siendo un de los grandes tabúes sociales y sirve como vía conceptual para denunciar y visibilizar diferentes temas, sociales, históricos, personales, entre otros. Múltiples artistas han utilizado este tabú a lo largo de la historia del arte hasta llegar al arte contemporáneo, en este articulo solamente nos detendremos en la obra de Tania Bruguera, Minette Vari, Pathy Chang e Iván Izquierdo. En la mayoría de los casos el artista asume el papel del “salvaje” y devora para asumir lo ajeno como propio, para digerir la realidad externa e interiorizarla con diferentes resultados.
Cuerpo y mito; actualidad de la estatuaria griega
Authors: Takkal Fernandez Aixa
Published: August 2024

La presente propuesta reflexiona, desde los códigos del lenguaje del dibujo contemporáneo, en torno a la condición maltrecha y fragmentada desde la que la escultura griega helenística alcanza nuestra contemporaneidad. Se trata de explorar, en un plano estético, el potencial subversivo de estas figuras tan arraigadas al imaginario colectivo en lo que concierne a cierto ideal -tanto pretérito como contemporáneo- de representación del cuerpo y los valores a él asociados. El punto de partida radica en considerar que la materialidad expuesta y degradada de estas representaciones escultóricas y héroes de la mitolología menoscaba la continuación del “relatar mítico” propio de la Ilustración y sus derroteros actuales; en estas estatuas asoman la temporalidad, la fragilidad y la vulnerabilidad propias e inherentes al cuerpo y que, sin embargo, se ha obviado, sino negado, en el curso de la representación e instauración de un sí- mismo propios de la Modernidad y la actual Modernidad tardía.
Image Denoising in Deep Learning: A Comprehensive Survey
Authors: Rusul Sabah Jebur  , Mohd Hazli Bin Mohamed Zabil  , Lim Kok Cheng  , Dalal A. Hammood
Published: August 2024

The utilization of deep learning techniques has garnered significant attention in the domain of image denoising. Each kind of deep learning methods for picture denoising possesses distinct qualities that differentiate them significantly. To be more precise, discriminative learning based on deep comprehension can effectively tackle the issue of Gaussian noise and other types of noise. This is the case because deep learning utilizes a larger and more comprehensive training set. Subsequently, a study conducted by researchers and subsequently published in the journal Science unveiled this potential. Optimization algorithms based on profound comprehension offer several advantages, such as the ability to produce precise assessments of the ambient noise. However, limited research has been conducted in this domain to categorize the many types of deep learning algorithms employed for image denoising. This is an area that needs future improvement. This post seeks to examine different advanced techniques that can be used to effectively remove noise from photos. Initially, we categories the actual noisy photographs based on the blind denoising capabilities of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for both noisy hybrid images and additive white noisy photos. Subsequently, the grainy, hazy, and low-resolution images were merged to produce composite photos with significant noise. Our next step is to examine different methodologies for deep learning, with a specific focus on the underlying ideas and assumptions that drive these methodologies. Subsequently, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the most advanced approaches for reducing noise in data, utilizing publicly accessible datasets. We then proceed to compare these techniques. To summarize, we have examined many obstacles and opportunities for further investigation that may be explored in the near or far future.
