Background: The kidneys play a vital role in maintaining fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance. Disruptions in these functions are seen in both acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Effective management of fluid and electrolytes is crucial for patient outcomes in renal disorders. Aim: This review article aims to consolidate best practices in fluid and electrolyte management for patients with renal disorders, focusing on acute and chronic conditions. Also, to assist the roles for healthcare providers. Methods: A comprehensive review of current literature and clinical guidelines was conducted to outline fluid and electrolyte management strategies. Key areas covered include fluid therapy, hydration assessment, and the use of different fluid types and administration routes. Results: The review highlights that individualized fluid therapy is essential for both AKI and CKD patients. Accurate assessment of hydration status is critical, with various methods discussed. Intravenous fluid administration is preferred in hospitalized patients, though alternatives like intraosseous and subcutaneous routes are also noted. Balanced polyionic solutions are recommended for initial resuscitation, while dextrose solutions are used for maintenance. The review also emphasizes the importance of cautious fluid administration to prevent overhydration and its associated risks.

Published: September 2024

The study proposes a fractal model based on B. Mandelbrot's geometry. Mandelbrot geometry to describe the scale effect in concrete. It has been experimentally established that under-loading concrete undergoes degradation of its structure, which is expressed in the sequential destruction of fractals at different scale levels. It was found that the scale reduction leads to an increase in concrete strength: 20x20x20 mm specimens showed the highest strength among all four compositions (23.3-25.3 MPa). The average density of tuff concrete was also investigated: the smallest specimens had a density of 1961.3 kg/m³, while the largest specimens had a density of 1974.2 kg/m³, which is explained by the heterogeneity of the structure and pore distribution. The water permeability of concrete, evaluated through air permeability, showed that specimens with higher air permeability (30.2-30.5 s/cm³) had better water resistance (W14). These data indicate a correlation between air permeability and water resistance, which may be due to the denser structure and improved pore distribution. The study of air permeability makes it possible to predict the durability of concrete structures when exposed to moisture, as well as to improve the quality of building materials and reduce the cost of their operation.

Mechanical and Metallurgical behavior of Manual Metal Arc Welded P91 Ferritic Martensitic Steel Joints
Authors: K Karthick , K Vinoth Kumar , M Balasubramanian
Published: September 2024

In the nuclear power plant industry, Cr-Mo ferritic steels are indispensable due to their high-temperature tensile strength, creep strength, and resistance to stress corrosion cracking. This study evaluated and analyzed the mechanical properties and metallurgical behavior of indigenously developed filler (over matched with base metal) manual metal arc welded Cr-Mo ferritic steel (hereafter referred as P91 steel). The analysis revealed that the ultimate tensile properties of the weld joint exceed those of the unwelded metal, being 6% higher than the base metal. Consequently, the joint efficiency for the weld joint is 106%. However, the impact toughness of the weld pad is significantly lower compared to the unwelded metal, nearly 2.5 times less than the base metal. The weld metal region’s microstructure is characterized by untempered lath martensite pinned with dense dislocations, which is attributed to rapid cooling from the liquidus range. Furthermore, a distinct Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ) was identified adjacent to the weld metal region, which results from the elevated temperature experienced in this area.
L’anglicisme comme poétique de la mer dans les œuvres de Marguerite Duras
Authors: Chen Xiaolin
Published: September 2024

Les mots anglais s’introduisent de temps en temps dans l’écriture de Marguerite Duras qui n’est pas une écrivaine bilingue. L’intrusion de l’anglicisme paraît d’autant plus mystérieuse qu’il renvoie souvent, que ce soit explicite ou non, aux éléments aquatiques, un des leitmotivs incontournables chez l’écrivaine. Outre l’avantage phonétique dû à son grand nombre de mots monosyllabiques, l’anglicisme employé par Duras est aussi porteur biographique qui fait allusion au contexte colonial du Cycle indien et à l’enfance indochinoise de l’auteure, que l’incarnation d’une rêverie linguistique mallarméenne qui suggère un ailleurs, une autre possibilité que la langue française défaillante, coincée dans le « mot-trou ». Cette rêverie correspond justement à la poétique de l’eau caractérisée par la vastitude, l’étrangeté et l’intangibilité qui se transfigure vers la fin de la carrière de l’écrivaine en une « écriture courante » – fruit de sa longue recherche stylistique.
Sensorial Memories of the Colonial Space in the Films of Marguerite Duras
Authors: Royer Michelle
Published: September 2024

This article argues that Marguerite Duras’ films evoke memories of the colonised Orient through fragments of sonic, haptic and olfactic events, which happen, seemingly randomly, in the liminal spaces of Duras’ filmic representation of place. In these interstitial gaps, the possibility of cultural hybridity is opened while the assumed or imposed hierarchy between the colonised and coloniser’s space is deconstructed. Through a detailed analysis of Duras’ films, this article unearthes the fragments of these buried sensorial memories of intercultural contact in the colonial space.
Être « de gauche » de Mai 68 aux années 1980
Authors: Pagès-Pindon Joëlle
Published: September 2024

Pour Marguerite Duras, la parole politique procède des mêmes ressorts que la parole poétique : c’est l’expression d’une expérience existentielle et le geste d’un sujet lyrique. Nous nous intéresserons d’abord à son engagement dans le mouvement de Mai 68 au sein du « Comité d’action étudiants-écrivains » : son action est vécue comme un prolongement de l’exigence surréaliste, à travers des slogans révolutionnaires dominés par une forme musicale et poétique. Nous examinerons ensuite plusieurs de ses articles de journaux parus dans les années 1980 et repris dans Le Monde extérieur, en soutien à une politique de gauche contre les assauts du parti de Jean-Marie Le Pen : ces textes font écho à une vision phénoménologique du monde et mettent en œuvre une écriture marquée par l’importance des sensations et des émotions.
Le phénomène Qingren en Chine
Authors: Wang Zhuya
Published: September 2024

Dans l’histoire de la traduction littéraire en Chine au XXe siècle, L’Amant de Marguerite Duras occupe une place singulière. D’une part, il figure parmi les rares textes littéraires contemporains qui ont donné lieu à plusieurs traductions chinoises quasi simultanées : en 1985 et 1986, un an après sa publication en France, on voit paraître en Chine six versions concurrentes du roman français. D’autre part, l’une de ces traductions, le Qingren de Wang Daoqian, a eu une profonde influence sur de jeunes auteurs chinois d’avant-garde des années 1980. Pour quelles raisons L’Amant a-t-il fait l’objet de si nombreuses traductions chinoises immédiatement après sa parution française ? Comment expliquer le succès du Qingren de Wang Daoqian auprès de l’avant-garde littéraire chinoise de l’époque ? C’est à ces deux questions que nous tentons de répondre dans cet article.
L’hypotypose contrariée
Authors: Majorel Jérémie
Published: September 2024

Dans Le Square (version théâtrale, 1965), loin de s’effacer au profit du dialogue, le récit persiste, tend vers l’hypotypose qui transcende les pièces ultérieures de Duras : un duo communie au sein d’une même évocation. Mais cette première pièce de la romancière a pour singularité de contrarier son mouvement vers l’hypotypose. La Jeune Fille, bonne à tout faire, se méfie des stéréotypes qui semblent entacher le récit mythifié que l’Homme, représentant de commerce, lui fait d’un voyage dans une ville étrangère avec un jardin zoologique en bord de mer. Quand elle se lance à son tour, c’est cette fois sur le mode d’un fantasme de meurtre à l’encontre de la très vieille femme qui est à sa charge. Mais l’Homme trouble la pureté fantasmatique en l’incitant au passage à l’acte ou en avançant plusieurs hypothèses qui amélioreraient son quotidien. Au lieu de communier, chacun donc contrarie l’hypotypose de l’autre, qui expose pourtant le plus intime de son existence. C’est une source de tension dans ce drame statique et d’ouverture du sens dans ce huis-clos : fragilisation-renforcement d’une vision partageable-impartageable.
Dispositif de la scène vide dans Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein
Authors: Lojkine Stéphane
Published: September 2024

En 1965, Lacan découvrant Le Ravissement de Lol V. Stein y trouve la confirmation de ce qu’il théorise. Il s’écarte alors du paradigme structural et linguistique pour s’orienter vers une modélisation par mathèmes, c’est-à-dire par dispositifs. Le texte de Duras lui fournit un point d’appui essentiel, et réciproquement la théorisation lacanienne éclaire le fonctionnement de la scène durassienne. Si Le Ravissement se déploie apparemment à partir de la scène traumatique liminaire du Bal, et du « mot-trou » qui la désigne, c’est la scène écran qui se répète à partir d’elle qui fournit la substance du roman. La fenêtre de l’hôtel où Jacques Hold retrouve Tatiana fait tableau pour Lol, mais tableau vide, et fait écran, par la silhouette interposée de Tatiana : toutes les autres scènes sont organisées sur ce modèle de scène vide. L’enjeu de la scène n’est pas l’interaction de deux personnages sous le regard d’un tiers, mais la répétition du guet, qui fait travailler la schize du sujet, aux dépens même de sa substance. La révolution que Duras introduit dans le dispositif scénique procède de cet évidement.
« C’est fait » : la mort feinte dans Moderato cantabile
Authors: Phaneuf-Jolicoeur Xavier
Published: September 2024

Le présent article analyse le rôle central d’une image intrigante dans la poétique de Moderato cantabile : celle de la mort feinte. Il montre d’abord qu’elle se trouve au cœur de la tension que le roman institue entre scènes (initiale et finale, notamment), dialogue et récit, mais aussi entre urgence et passivité. Puis, en venant à réinscrire l’œuvre dans le contexte des expérimentations romanesques des années 1950 et 1960, il examine ce qui fait de la mort feinte l’image d’une dynamique contradictoire par laquelle l’absence de moyens se renverse et devient un moyen poétique, un moyen de prendre l’innommable en charge.
Les Donnadieu en Touraine
Authors: Maurel Hélène
Published: September 2024

La Touraine est présente dans plusieurs œuvres de Marguerite Duras, en particulier dans le roman L’Amant et dans la nouvelle Des journées entières dans les arbres. Nous évoquerons les épisodes nombreux de la vie familiale des Donnadieu qui se sont déroulés dans ce cadre et comment Marguerite Duras s’en inspire librement dans son œuvre, mêlant volontiers les souvenirs à l’imagination. Marguerite est la première à avoir séjourné, brièvement, en Touraine, au château de Cangé de Saint-Avertin, lors du repli du gouvernement français à Tours en juin 1940. Mais c’est la mère qui choisit comme terre d’élection cette région pour y installer Pierre en 1949, afin de lui offrir un cadre de vie sain, qui l’éloigne des funestes tentations citadines. Cette propriété tourangelle achetée à Nazelles-Négron n’avait jamais été identifiée jusqu’ici et elle avait été le plus souvent confondue avec celle que Marie acheta pour y vivre à son retour d’Indochine, à quelques kilomètres de son fils, à Onzain. Le festival du court métrage de Tours fut aussi l’occasion pour la romancière de revenir dans ces lieux familiers.
Assessment of the Energy Potential of Plastics as a Component of ANFO-type Explosives
Authors: Biegańska Jolanta
Published: September 2024

Many methods have been developed to reduce the environmental impact of plastic waste. New technologies have been developed to make high-temperature utilisation of these wastes possible. A promising method for the unconventional disposal of plastics by detonation was identified. The popular explosive ANFO (Ammonium Nitrate Fuel Oil) is a component mixture of oxidiser (ammonium nitrate) and fuel (diesel fuel). The optimal composition is 94.5% oxidiser and 5.5% fuel – a guarantee of complete and total combustion. Plastics have a chemical composition and oxygen balance similar to fuel oil. It is possible to replace the fuel share in ANFO by adding plastics and using the energy they contain. The amount of energy that can be recovered is high for PE and PP (at the level of 0.6) and PS – 0.5. Using polymers as ANFO components is advantageous for economic reasons – plastic waste will be eliminated during blasting works.

Authors: Ruschickaya Ol'ga , Kulikova Elena , Kruzhkova Tat'yana , Zyryanova Tat'yana
Published: September 2024

Small businesses and peasant (farm) households play a key role in agricultural production in Russia, making a significant contribution to the development of the agricultural sector. The relevance of this study is due to the need to analyze the contribution of small enterprises to the total volume of agricultural production and assess their impact on the country's economy. The purpose of the article is to study the role of small enterprises and farms in the agricultural economy of Russia based on data on the share of small enterprises in agricultural production and the main indicators of farmers' activities. The hypothesis of the study is that small enterprises play an important role in the production of crop products, but their contribution to livestock farming remains relatively small. The conducted data analysis showed that small enterprises provide a significant part of the production of grain and oilseeds, but their share in the livestock sector is small. In addition, farms demonstrate steady growth in crop production, especially in the production of grain and oilseeds. The conclusions of the article highlight the importance of further development of small businesses and farms through improved access to financial resources, government support and the introduction of innovative technologies to increase their competitiveness and sustainable growth in the agricultural economy.

Chinese in the Linguistic Landscape of Chinese Communities in Malaysia: A Tale of Three Cities
Authors: Jiao Yuling , Singh Manjet Kaur Mehar
Published: September 2024

The study of linguistic landscapes (LL) in Malaysia has emerged as a prominent area of research in Asia, predominantly focused on Kuala Lumpur, the capital city. Despite Chinese constituting over one fifth of Malaysia’s population, the presence of Chinese in the LL remains insufficiently explored. This empirical study addresses this gap by examining the visibility of Chinese in the LL of Chinese communities across three Malaysian cities: Penang, Ipoh, and Johor Bahru. By analysing a corpus of photographed public signs from various spaces, this research investigates the visibility of Chinese in the LL both quantitatively and qualitatively. The findings reveal that the visibility of Chinese in the LL of Chinese communities in the three selected cities not only signifies Chinese identity but also serves as an effective means to preserve traditional Chinese culture among Malaysian Chinese. This study underscores the importance of understanding the role of minority languages in the LL within ethnic communities, contributing to a more comprehensive view of Malaysia’s multilingual and multicultural context.

Published: September 2024

Com a promulgação da Lei 13.415/2017, aconteceram mudanças significativas na etapa do Ensino Médio brasileiro. A partir de então, a estrutura curricular pôde ser repensada e novas interlocuções com diferentes agentes educacionais puderam ser concretizadas. Com essas premissas como ponto de partida, este artigo objetiva relatar a experiência de elaboração de uma proposta inventiva para o Ensino Médio, a partir de uma parceria firmada entre uma universidade e uma escola. Neste relato, utilizou-se a metodologia descritiva em que se narra o percurso desde a elaboração do projeto até a concretização da matriz curricular. A proposta pedagógica rompe com os modelos de matrizes curriculares disciplinares e concretiza caminhos para idealizar uma identidade escolar inventiva e uma docência compartilhada, superando alguns paradigmas educacionais que, na interface entre essas instituições, podem tecer convergências com as demandas contemporâneas. Desse modo, entende-se que, mesmo que os debates a respeito do Ensino Médio não sejam fáceis, as contribuições desse artigo podem trazer caminhos alternativos que olham para as juventudes e o trabalho colaborativo dos docentes, permitindo que se ultrapassem barreiras comuns no âmbito do ensino e que se repense a atuação das escolas, das universidades e de toda a comunidade escolar na educação básica do país.

Hybrid nanoforms based on silver and antibacterial drug dioxidine (2,3-bis-(hydroxymethyl)quinoxaline 1,4-di-N-oxide) were prepared by the method of joint co-condensation of metal and ligand vapors on a liquid nitrogen cooled surface. The samples obtained by low temperature co-condensation were characterized by FTIR-, UV-Vis and XPS-spectroscopy, ТЕМ, SEM and powder X-ray phase analysis (ХРА). It was shown that cryomodified nanoforms preferably consist of anhydrous triclinic (T-phase) crystal phase of dioxidine, the dimensions of dioxidine particles ranges from 50 to 300 nm, the average size of included silver nanoparticles is (15±3) nm. Broadening of the diffraction patterns belonging to silver shows the transition of metallic silver to the nanoscale state. The FTIR results indicate for hybrid nanoforms stabilized by donor-acceptor interactions of surface silver atoms with hydroxyl groups and with donor N-atoms of quinoxaline cycles of dioxidine molecules.

La motivación es el impulso que hace que una persona actúe de una manera determinada hacia la consecución de algún logro. En la práctica docente la motivación es fundamental porque en buena medida avala el éxito de procesos educativos.  Desde una perspectiva cualitativa este estudio tuvo como propósito conocer los factores que inciden en la motivación para su práctica educativa de los docentes de la Unidad Educativa Monte Olivo de Montecristi, en Manabí, Ecuador. Se aplicó una entrevista semiestructurada a 17 docentes cuyos resultados apuntan a que su motivación se vincula con un buen ambiente laboral donde se puedan reconocer sus esfuerzos, así como el dar importancia al uso de recursos motivadores durante su práctica docente lo que tiene beneficio directo en los procesos educativos pues mejora el rendimiento de los alumnos. Emergen también factores que afectan la motivación en los docentes como el poco reconocimiento a su desempeño laboral y bajos salarios; no obstante, coinciden en que tal realidad adversa es ajena al proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje y no debe afectar el rendimiento de los alumnos.

Cushing's Syndrome (CS) is a disorder caused by excess cortisol in the blood, which can be exogenous (due to the use of glucocorticoids) or endogenous (due to dysfunctions in the adrenal glands or pituitary gland). This condition is associated with several morbidities, including hypertension, visceral obesity and, especially, osteoporosis, caused by the inhibition of the function of osteoblasts, responsible for bone formation. The narrative review seeks to understand the relationship between the prolonged use of glucocorticoids and the development of osteoporosis.

Authors: Santos Luciano da Costa , Trichês Daniela Menegon
Published: September 2024

The prospection of Rare Earth Elements (REE) in Brazil is of great strategic importance due to the growing global demand for these resources, which are essential in advanced technological sectors, such as electronics, renewable energies (wind turbines), and electric mobility (batteries and high-efficiency motors). The exploration of compounds containing REE in Brazil began in 1885, with the extraction of monazite sand in the region of Prado, Bahia. Since then, both private companies and government institutions, such as the Geological Survey of Brazil (CPRM), have played key roles in this sector. Geological surveys and economic feasibility studies are key steps in identifying viable deposits and developing efficient extraction and processing methods. The methodology used is based on an analysis of historical and scientific sources, highlighting the main challenges, such as the environmental contamination generated by mining waste. It is concluded that, for Brazil to recover and strengthen its position in the global rare earths market, it is essential to intensify the adoption of sustainable mining practices and advance technological innovation, as demonstrated by recent efforts in projects such as LabFabITR.

Este trabajo académico busca ofrecer alternativas para la enseñanza, formulación y aplicación de tecnologías en la educación básica desde la formación docente en la Benemérita Escuela Normal “Manuel Ávila Camacho”, en la licenciatura en Educación Física. La principal problemática que afecta a los practicantes al momento de introducirlas en sus espacios de intervención es la baja aceptación y el poco interés mostrado por los alumnos hacia estas estrategias, ya que, de algún modo, no existen cambios funcionales y significativos en las estructuras tecnológicas que despierten su curiosidad. Por lo tanto, es tarea del educador generar propuestas que sean innovadoras y cambien de manera estructural, más no en su contexto cultural de la forma en que estas se aplican. De tal manera que La tecnología multimedia y de red mejora la educación física al cambiar los métodos de enseñanza tradicionales, involucrar a los estudiantes y mejorar la calidad de la enseñanza a través de herramientas interactivas y digitales en entornos universitarios de acuerdo con Wang (2018). Por tal motivo, se optó por aplicar y demostrar este nuevo proceso formativo, haciendo uso de una propuesta de innovación tecnológica como una forma de fortalecer, motivar y generar interés en el futuro docente, con la finalidad de que replique este tipo de procesos en sus prácticas profesionales.

Los subsidios a los combustibles fósiles han sido objeto de intenso debate global, especialmente en países en desarrollo como Ecuador. Este estudio aborda la problemática del subsidio a la gasolina en Ecuador desde un enfoque multidimensional, fundamentado en la Teoría de la Economía del Bienestar de Samuelson. En este contexto, el objetivo principal es analizar la influencia de este subsidio sobre indicadores macroeconómicos clave durante el periodo 2000-2022. La metodología incluye un análisis descriptivo de la evolución de subsidios y precios de combustibles, y la estimación de siete modelos de regresión lineal simple mediante métodos Mínimos Cuadrados Ordinarios, utilizando datos de fuentes oficiales como el Banco Central del Ecuador, el Banco Mundial y el Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Censos. Los resultados muestran un incremento sustancial en las subvenciones a la gasolina durante los diferentes periodos presidenciales, además indican la relación estadísticamente significativa y positiva entre el subsidio y el PIB per cápita, mientras que no se encontraron relaciones significativas con el índice de Gini o la balanza comercial. Estos hallazgos cuestionan la efectividad del subsidio a la gasolina en Ecuador como herramienta de desarrollo económico y subrayan la necesidad de reevaluar su sostenibilidad a largo plazo en el contexto de la política fiscal ecuatoriana, sugiriendo posibles reformas para mejorar la eficiencia económica y la equidad social.

El síndrome de Burnout es cada vez más prevalente en personal sanitario. Se planteó como objetivo diseñar un programa de prevención del síndrome de Burnout en la población estudiada. Como metodología se utilizó un diseño de investigación no experimental, de tipo descriptivo, prospectivo, transversal. Se trabajó con 100 profesionales del área de salud y vigilancia epidemiológica, se usaron como instrumentos la escala de Apgar de funcionalidad familiar y el cuestionario Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Para el desarrollo del programa de intervención se llevó a cabo el proceso de validación por especialistas y se hizo la medición Alfa de Cronbach. Entre los principales resultados: el 55% fueron hombres y el 45% tenían entre 31 y 40 años. La mayoría de los trabajadores tienen entre 1 y 3 años de servicio (52%). El 39% evidenció disfuncionalidad familiar moderada. Hubo agotamiento emocional de nivel medio (39%), despersonalización baja (38%) y realización personal baja (41%). No hubo asociación entre los niveles de síndrome de Burnout con la edad y el sexo, pero sí con el puesto de trabajo y 1 a 3 años de servicio. Se creó el programa de intervención con un alfa de Cronbach de .90. Como conclusión el abordaje de los trabajadores permitió establecer sus características, las puntuaciones en cada dimensión del cuestionario y la clasificación de ellos según el riesgo de desarrollar Burnout. Fue posible la propuesta de un Programa de Intervención de Prevención de Síndrome de Burnout a escala individual, familiar y social.

Authors: Güdekli Hayrettin Nebi
Published: September 2024

Bu makalede klasik dönem Muʿtezile kelâmcılarının olağanüstü feno-menlere ilişkin yaklaşım biçimlerine yönelik teorik bir çerçeve sunulmaya çalışılacaktır. Bu bağlamda Muʿtezile kelâmcılarının olağanüstü fenomenlere ilişkin yaklaşımlarının onların bilgi/bilim ve varlık/evren ile ilgili açıklama-larıyla ne ölçüde uyumlu olduğu sorusu ele alınacaktır. Makalede öncelikle Muʿtezile kelâmcılarının bilgi/bilim ve varlık/evren ile ilgili geliştirdikleri farklı açıklama biçimleri ana hatlarıyla serimlenecek, ardından olağanüstü fenomenlerin söz konusu açıklama modelleri çerçevesinde nasıl izah edildi-ğine geçilecektir. Burada söz konusu fenomenlere ilişkin olağanüstü feno-menler (ontolojik doğaüstü); olağanüstü görünümünde olan, ancak gerçekte doğal olan fenomenler (sahte-olağanüstü) ve olağanüstü ancak doğal feno-menler (epistemolojik olağanüstü) şeklinde bir tasnif önerilerek Muʿtezile kelâmındaki bilimsel açıklama modellerinin bu tasnif altında yer alan tikel fenomenleri ne ölçüde izah ettiği sorusu soruşturulacaktır. Bu çerçevede cevher-arazcı, tabiatçı ve cevher-arazcı, tabiatçı ve anti-atomcu şeklinde üç modelin sırasıyla mûcizeleri, sihir, büyü, el çabukluğu gibi olağanüstü görü-nümlü fenomenleri ve epistemolojik olağanüstü fenomenleri nasıl açıkladı-ğını ortaya koymaya çalışacağız. Söz konusu fenomenlerin izahında gerek cevher-arazcı/anti-tabiatçı kelâmcıların tevlîd ve iʿtimâd teorilerine gerek tabiatçı kelâmcıların mahallin tabiatı ve kümûn-zuhûr teorilerine referansta bulunduklarını gözlemlesek de onların bu tür fenomenleri nihai anlamda metafiziksel ilke zemininde nasıl açıkladıklarını ortaya koymaya çalışacağız.

Stingless bee honey (SBH) has a unique sour taste and distinct flavor compared to honey from Apis species. The demand for SBH has increased in the Philippines because of its known therapeutic properties. Even if it is sold immediately after harvest, it is crucial to know its shelf-life in anticipation of large-volume production shortly. Thus, this study was conducted to determine if storage for 5 mo at room temperature will alter its physicochemical characteristics. The average values for the pH level, moisture content, HMF content, reducing sugar content, and total sugar content during the 5-mo storage period were 3.30 ± 0.02, 26.95 ± 0.07%, 2.40 ± 0.55 mg/kg, 46.08 ± 0.43%, and 46.78 ± 1.51%, respectively. The values for each parameter did not change significantly during the duration of the study. This indicates that SBH can remain stable for at least a 5-mo period.
