Habitar territorios en riesgo: apropiaciones espaciales y disputas simbólicas en dos barrios periféricos de Quito
Authors: Santillán Alfredo , Puga-Cevallos Elisa
Published: January 2023

Con la antropología se ha introducido la noción de cultura en el estudio de los riesgos y de los desastres naturales para entender la producción de sentido, una contribución más allá de las posturas de las ciencias físicas y probabilísticas. En este artículo se incorpora la noción del habitar a esta discusión, considerando los modos y las tensiones de la reproducción cotidiana de la vida en territorios considerados riesgosos. Se analizan dos barrios, similares en contexto, pero con diferente calificación, a través de métodos etnográficos que reflejan procesos cognitivos y estrategias de adaptación y convivencia para garantizar su permanencia material y simbólica. Desde este enfoque, se aporta al debate sobre los sesgos en la gestión de riesgos, que en la práctica tiende a abstraerlos del espacio en que se ubican, y explicitar las divergencias entre los análisis científicos, las instituciones y la población. Mediante la observación de los procesos de domesticación del espacio y las racionalidades que están detrás de ellos, se discute la selección del riesgo como mecanismo para lidiar con un contexto de carencias económicas y de ausencia de servicios básicos. Se concluye que para entender las posiciones de la gente ante la contingencia o proximidad de un daño hay que considerar sus vínculos emocionales, sus formas de habitar el territorio y sus perspectivas de futuro.
Entre la familia y el mercado: pobreza femenina en un programa de asistencia social en Chile
Authors: Calquin-Donoso Claudia , Guerra-Arrau Rodrigo
Published: January 2023

En este texto se presentan los resultados de una investigación cualitativa y documental, que tuvo como propósito indagar acerca de las denominadas problematizaciones sobre la pobreza en un corpus discursivo del programa gubernamental de asistencia Chile Seguridades y Oportunidades. Se trazaron los modos en que la pobreza se construye en cuanto problema de gobierno. Se recolectó y analizó un corpus natural elaborado en el marco de la creación de esta política pública, compuesto por el programa de gobierno, los mensajes presidenciales y las discusiones de senadores y diputados. Los resultados indican que la problematización de la pobreza se construye mediante un discurso en el que se articulan la retórica empresarial y la conservadora; así el problema no radica en el modelo económico, sino en la dependencia que tienen los sujetos del Estado y, en el caso específico de las mujeres, en una crisis de los valores y de la familia. ¿La consecuencia lógica?: la propuesta de un sujeto emprendedor habilitado por el Estado para habitar las “fuerzas de la libertad” empresarial, a través de una serie de técnicas individualizantes como el emprendimiento. Se concluye que la producción de una tecnología de gobierno basada en el cruce de un férreo neoliberalismo y un nuevo conservadurismo social reproduce la clásica división sexual del trabajo en un esquema empresarial.
Structure and Rhetorical Aim of Deut 4:32-40: Blending of Historical, Universal, Sensorial and Relational Motifs
Authors: Coetsee Albert J.
Published: January 2023

Various scholars view Deuteronomy 4:32-40 as the climax of Moses' first speech. While the passage has received considerable attention on the literary-critical front and in terms of its theology, the structure of the passage has not received as much scholarly attention, possibly because the structure seems quite simple (Deut 4:32-35, 36-39, 40). The question, however, that has not been adequately addressed is: why does Deut 4:36-39 repeat Deut 4:32-35 in part and what can be deduced from this repetition? The article attempts to answer this question by investigating the occurrence of four primary themes found in the text, namely historical, universal, sensorial and relational themes, each made up of various motifs. It is argued that the blending of these motifs indicates a deliberate development in the structure of the passage. The article concludes by reflecting on the multifaceted rhetorical aim of the text in light of its structure.
How Susceptible are Skills to Obsolescence? A Task-Based Perspective of Human Capital Depreciation
Authors:   Seoul National University, Walter Sonja , Lee Jeong-Dong ,   Seoul National University
Published: January 2023

This article investigates the link between human capital depreciation and job tasks, with an emphasis on potential differences between education levels. Using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel, fixed effects panel regression is applied to estimate an extended Mincer equation based on Neumann and Weiss’s model. Human capital gained from higher education levels depreciates at a faster rate than other human capital. The depreciation rate is also higher for specific skills compared to general skills. Moreover, the productivity-enhancing value of education diminishes faster in jobs with a high share of non-routine interactive, non-routine manual, and routine cognitive tasks. These jobs are characterized by greater technology complementarity or more frequent changes in core-skill or technology-skill requirements. The presented results point to the urgency of elaborating combined labor market and educational and lifelong learning policies to counteract the depreciation of skills. Education should focus on equipping workers with more general skills in all education levels and adapt educational programs to take into account the rapid upgrade of production technologies and changing competency requirements.

Published: January 2023

The work investigates the effects that a specific science industry collaboration scheme, joint research, generates in three areas, such as: production of academic activities, scientific knowledge commercialization and society at large. It is an in-depth work on joint research in a developing country that covers three different types of effects. The work highlights the specific industrial contributions that make it possible such effects to be verified, with special attention to societal effects, an aspect rarely present in the literature. Based on some dimensions that recent literature has identified and where more empirical evidence is needed, a multiple case study has been carried out through the selection of three public private collaborations in Argentine biopharmaceutical sector responding to joint research characteristics. Among the main findings, the identification of the different ways in which relationship with industry allows science: to intensify its publication activity, by having more resources and identifying new thematic niches to publish; to improve teaching, using co-generated knowledge and shared equipment; to expand its research agenda both towards applied topics and towards more basic ones. Likewise, relationship with industry allows knowledge generation that, in addition to being central in the creation of start-ups and patents, also contribute to perform new services of commercial nature. Finally, joint research generates effects that benefit society in general, through cheaper domestic diagnostic or therapeutic solutions improving public health.

Knowledge intensive business services (KIBS) act as bridges of innovation in the productive fabric. Given this growing importance, the occupational structure and demand of skills in KIBS activities need to be reflected on. This paper examines the occupational structures of KIBS, looks at the role that vocational training profiles can play within them. The focus of this analysis is the case of the Basque Country, to which the mismatch approach was applied. Beyond merely understanding the current role of vocational education workers, this approach makes it possible to explore the potential of VET graduates in KIBS. Three types of mismatches are studied here: vertical mismatch, horizontal mismatch, and skills mismatch. Results show that the relevance of VET workers varies within the different types of KIBS, being particularly important in T-KIBS. This leads to the conclusion that VET graduates can play a key role in digital transformation processes, both in manufacturing and services companies.

he article verifies one of the principles of the general theory of social development, which is called the principle of consistency. According to this principle, the economic growth rate positively depends not only upon the level of technological development, institutions, and culture, but also upon the degree of consistency between these factors. This hypothesis was tested by constructing econometric models on a sample of 154 countries. The output variable is the rate of GDP growth, and the explanatory factors are technology, institutions, and culture. To quantify the latter, the corresponding proxy variables were used: labor productivity, the Doing Business index, and the Corruption Perceptions Index. The constructed models are fixed-effect models, and the coefficients of the explanatory variables are determined by adjusting the variance-covariance matrices. Empirical evidence has confirmed the validity of the principle of consistency for the group of “rich” countries with upper middle income, and have not been confirmed for the group of “poor” countries with lower middle income. The obtained result was interpreted in terms of the concept of a narrow corridor called Acemoglu–Robinson, the concept of structural competition and the theory of self-organization. It is shown that the consistency principle acts as a necessary condition for the appearance of the Red Queen effect in the Acemoglu–Robinson concept.

Lacan’ın Kavramlarıyla Genet’nin Hizmetçiler ve Balkon’unu Okumak
Authors: KEÇİCİOĞLU Simel , AKIN Banu Ayten
Published: January 2023

Bu çalışma Jean Genet oyunlarında karakter temsiliyetlerine ve karakterlerin içinde bulunduğu döngüsel motiflere farklı bir bakış açısı sunmayı amaçlamıştır. Genet oyunlarında karakterleri çoğunlukla aynaların karşısında, kılık değiştirirken, başka insanlar olmayı arzularken, rol oynarken temsil eder. Daima kendilerinde olmayan bir durumun arzusu içindedirler. Bulundukları yer, konum, statü her ne ise ondan apayrı bir yeri arzularlar. Dönüştürmek isteyip, asla dönüştüremedikleri bir çıkmazın, döngünün içindedirler. Genet’nin karakterlerinin içinde bulunduğu bu tema değişmez bir imge gibidir. Lacan’ın teorilerinde de benzer bir motif bulunur. Arzu nesnesi teorisinden yola çıkarak, öteki, nesne a, öznenin inşası gibi kavramlar üzerinden bakıldığında kendisinde olmayanı arzulama hali, başkası üzerinden oluşturulan kimlik gibi kavramsal bağlamda Genet karakterlerine bir yorum getirmek oldukça mümkün. Ayna evresi Lacan’ın psikanaliz dünyasına girişi adına en önemli evresidir. Kimlik inşasındaki öznenin diyalektiği ve yabancılaşma perspektifi Hizmetçiler oyununda aranmıştır. Benlik ve ego oluşumu, Öteki ile ilişki ve objet petit a gibi kavramlar üzerinden de Balkon oyunundaki karakter temsiliyetleri ile paralellik kurmaya çalışarak okunmuştur.

Published: January 2023

The current condition in Indonesia, especially in children, is still experiencing a double burden of nutrition, namely lack of and excess nutrition. Many factors are involved in nutritional problems in Indonesia. One of the efforts that support the prevention of nutritional problems is through direct socialization to children by providing information about balanced nutrition so that it is expected to be able to educate from an early age, especially in choosing the types of food that are good for health and the introduction of body conditions related to nutritional disorders. The purpose of this study is that students in the Tugu Negeri Desa Cihideung. Parongpong District, West Bandung Regency, Indonesia. get additional education about balanced nutrition and at the same time the introduction of canker sores as an example of a disease that can be caused by a nutritional disorder. filling out a questionnaire that is applied to early childhood with an age range of 7-9 years using pre-test and post-test questionnaires. The result is that from a total of 20 students who filled out the questionnaire, as many as 62 students (67%) experienced an increase in the score on their post test results, and as many as 100% of grade 1 students experienced an increase, this shows that the implementation can be well absorbed by most students. A good counseling process requires several supporting factors including careful preparation and during implementation, interactive material delivery techniques are needed, as well as good team coordination. Continuous activities need to be carried out to monitor the application of the knowledge gained from the results of the counseling so that it is hoped that there will be an increase in the health quality of Indonesian children. The child's body is stronger against infection with other diseases.
“Empathetic Egoist” and “Obedient Individualist”: Clash Between Family Practices and Normative Images of Children
Authors: Sikorska Małgorzata
Published: January 2023

The initial aim of this article is to analyze the clash between everyday family practices and parents’ normative images of perfect children. I identified five sets of features and behaviors of the actual child that mirror daily parents–children interactions (including parental socialization strategies) and three sets of features and behaviors that reflect parents’ perceptions of a perfect child. The analysis revealed two “dimensions of contradiction”: egoism vs. empathy and obedience vs. independence. Investigating how family practices combine with parents’ normative images results in insights into parents’ ambivalent attitudes toward children. The second aim is to identify the social sources of these clashes. The Polish case appears to be intriguing due to a particularly rapid systemic transformation, resulting in overlapping patterns of everyday practices, divergent social norms, variant meanings, and contradictory discourses. This article’s contribution is to illustrate the hypothesis that systemic transformation might have a more immediate effect on changing social norms, meanings, and discourses on parenthood and childhood (and thus change parents’ normative images of children), while family practices are transformed with parents’ resistance. The concept of family practices developed by David H. Morgan is employed as a theoretical framework and starting point for the study. The analysis draws on qualitative data and in‐depth interviews with 24 couples of parents and six single parents.
Sources of Loneliness for Older Adults in the Czech Republic and Strategies for Coping With Loneliness
Authors: Kafková Marcela Petrová
Published: January 2023

In this article, issues of loneliness and exclusion from social relations in old age are examined from the perspective of older men and women. Our focus is on sources of loneliness they themselves perceive and what strategies they use to cope with it. Twenty‐nine interviews with older adults at risk of loneliness in the Czech Republic and their models of social convoys are analyzed. Surprisingly small gender differences in feelings of loneliness are found. A major source of loneliness for both men and women is the loss of a life partner. Perceptions of loneliness and the shape of social networks differ substantially in the case of lifelong singles and childless people. A second significant source for feelings of loneliness includes unsatisfactory relationships with close family. Based on the participants’ accounts, three strategies for coping with loneliness are identified.

Published: January 2023

Purpose. The article is focused on the analysis of the content of determining certain termsformulated in the Law of Ukraine «On Administrative Procedure» with further provision ofsuggestions on their improvement.Methods. The research methodology consists of various methods of scientific cognition, includingcomparative and legal, systemic and structural, analysis, synthesis and others, which allow ussystematically and consistently to solve scientific tasks, to study and compare the scholars’ pointsof view, the provisions of legal acts of the respective countries, court caselaw and to formulate theauthor’s conclusions.The results. The author of the article claims that domestic researchers, including drafters ofregulatory legal acts, are rather superficial and sometimes irresponsible while formulatingdefinitions of the relevant legal terms, which has an extremely negative effect on the efficiency ofadministration of the law. It is due to the fact that the definition contains an abstract model andwhich is compared to the real existing social relations, which are waiting to be regulated with thehelp of an administrative act.The content of the definitions of the following terms «administrative body», «administrative act»,«arbitrary power» has been analyzed in the article. Those terms have received legal wording inthe Law of Ukraine «On Administrative Procedure».Conclusions. Based on the results of the relevant studies, the author has offered to change thedefinition of an administrative body and to understand it as any entity that performs publicadministration functions related to the adoption of an administrative act on a permanent or temporary basis. It has been proved that the legal definition of an administrative act suffers fromits incompleteness, which is manifested in the following: lack of the “link” of an administrativeact to the sphere of administrative and legal regulation; impossibility of extending the effect of anadministrative act to a group of entities, which can be determined on the basis of certain criteria;disregarding the possibility of an administrative act’s existence without an addressee; ignoringthe fact that an administrative act should be limited only by external impact.According to the author’s opinion, the definition of arbitrary power also seems problematic,since the specific features of this category were not taken into account during the process of itsdefinition. The author of the paper suggests to understand arbitrary power as a certain spacegiven to an administrative body in order to make a choice between several decisions permissiblefrom the point of view of law.

Modern production is impossible to imagine without integrated data management information systems that ensure the stability of technological, financial, logistical and other processes. The concept is based on the construction of a single information space based on advanced information technologies. One of the key aspects of building a single information space of the enterprise is the integration of automated systems of all divisions of the enterprise into a single information space. The implementation of such a concept is the key to improving the efficiency of production processes, reducing the time of development and launch of new products, increasing the total output. Moreover, it happens with the simultaneous deep integration of project teams of different departments into a single highly professional team of the company, which aims to achieve a common goal. This approach requires appropriate transformations of the information space of the enterprise. The paper considers the elements of the information space, their parameters and relationships that form a single information space of a manufacturing enterprise with critical infrastructure. The elements of the information space are presented in the form of separate nodes with established connections in a fully connected topology. The algorithm for restoring the parameters of atomic elements of the information space in a single information space and the algorithm for identifying the input atomic elements of the information space in a single information space are described. The latter is based on a step-by-step analysis of the features of the object using queries to enable it to make decisions to identify it. The method of identification of the input element of the information space in the information space has been tested with the help of machine learning methods.

Effective development of the military sphere of Ukraine in the future is considered possible under the condition of integration of all military formations of the state into a unified structure with its further transformation into an integral system of military organization of the state. At the same time, special attention should be paid to the creation of unified subsystems to ensure its viability. The variability and uncertainty of the current geopolitical situation on a global and regional scale makes new demands to ensure Ukraine's national security and the adequacy of its military-political model to the threats and challenges of today. Each armed conflict forces to adjust the models of use of bodies (units) of military and law enforcement agencies, including the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, full-scale armed aggression of the Russian Federation in Ukraine is no exception. In the realities of the war, the role of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, which is an important component of national security, and together with other military formations and public authorities is the core of the security and defense sector of Ukraine. The need to study this issue as part of the theory of operational art of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine is due to its significant changes in the nature and content of recent wars and local conflicts (military confrontation in Chechnya, Russian-Georgian conflict in 2008, Joint Forces operation). hybrid war ”) in eastern Ukraine and the Russian armed invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022). The lack of research in this aspect significantly reduces the effectiveness of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine in the context of aggravation of the military-political situation, the effectiveness of its activities in performing tasks to ensure the security of the state border. Based on the general regimes of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, the article identifies the main tasks and provides recommendations for the actions of forces and means of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine in the period of complicating the military-political situation.

Lithuanian Nobleman Augustin Konstantynowicz: a Pseudo-Descendent of a Courter of Grand Princess Elena Ivanovna
Authors: Domrachev N.E.
Published: January 2023

The article is devoted to analysis of the case, when in 1683 the Ambassadorial Chancellery granted to Lithuanian nobleman Augustin Pohoży-Konstantynowicz the tsar’s diploma, confirming a departure of his antecessor to Lithuania as a courter of grand princess Elena Ivanovna. The emergence of the legend about the origin of Pohoży-Konstantynowicz was linked with fashion on Muscowy-related genealogies, which had spread among new Lithuanian establishment at the middle of 17th century, especially among Oginski, who were patrons of Pohoży-Konstantynowicz. The interest of Konstantynowicz in grand princess Elena Ivanovna’s court was linked to his close contacts with Moscowite diplomats. The role of Konstantynowicz in the organization of contacts between prince Vasiliy V. Golitsyn and prince Marcian A. Oginski in the beginning of 1680s and his service as the Russian agent predetermined the satisfaction of his request by the Ambassadorial Chancellery, despite the absence in the Chancellery any documentary evidence of Pohoży-Konstantynowicz genealogical myth.

Wireless networks, particularly Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs), are undergoing a significant change as a result of wireless technology advancements and the Internet's rapid expansion. Mesh routers, which have limited mobility and serve as the foundation of WMN, are made up of mesh clients and form the core of WMNs. Mesh clients can with mesh routers to create a client mesh network. Mesh clients can be either stationary or mobile. To properly utilise the network resources of WMNs, a topology must be designed that provides the best client coverage and network connectivity. Finding the ideal answer to the WMN mesh router placement dilemma will resolve this issue MRP-WMN. Since the MRP-WMN is known to be NP-hard, approximation methods are frequently used to solve it. This is another reason we are carrying out this task. Using the Multi-Verse Optimizer algorithm, we provide a quick technique for resolving the MRP-WMN (MVO). It is also proposed to create a new objective function for the MRP-WMN that accounts for the connected client ratio and connected router ratio, two crucial performance indicators. The connected client ratio rises by an average of 16.1%, 12.5%, and 6.9% according to experiment data, when the MVO method is employed to solve the MRP-WMN problem, the path loss falls by 1.3, 0.9, and 0.6 dB when compared to the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), correspondingly.

Published: January 2023

The 21st century has brought a number of challenges to the world that humanity has to face. Climate change is one of them and the world community must do everything it can to improve the current situation. Scientists have shown that the main cause of climate change is the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere, driven by human economic activity. The environmental impact of the agricultural sector, in the form of increasing GHG emissions, is becoming more pronounced and farmers need in-depth knowledge of the greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural activities and their potential reduction on farms. This is all the more so as EU support for farms is planned to be linked to measures taken to reduce GHG emissions.

La colonización fecal en lactantes por bacterias resistentes a los antimicrobianos es un potencial riesgo para futuras terapias antibióticas. Nuestro objetivo fue determinar la frecuencia y características sociodemográficas de lactantes portadores fecales de enterobacterias resistentes a ciprofloxacina (PFRC) y sus genes de resistencia asociados. Analizamos muestras fecales de 41 niños lactantes residentes en el distrito de Talara-Piura, Perú, en 2019. Evaluamos la presencia de 3 genes de resistencia a quinolonas: aac(6’)-Ib-cr, qnrB y oqxA y 2 de betalactamasas: blaCTX-M, blaPER-2.El 68% de lactantes fueron PFRC, Escherichia coli (83,3%) fue el más frecuente. El análisis genotípico detectó: oqxA (41,1%), qnrB (26,7%) y aac(6’)-Ib-cr (20%) y al gen blaCTX-M en el 93,3% de los aislados con betalactamasas. La elevada frecuencia de PFRC nos alertan sobre el potencial riesgo en la pérdida de utilidad de esta familia antibiótica en el área de estudio.

The paper presents descriptive statistics of the experimental results regarding the potential antifungal activity of four essential oils obtained from new varieties of medicinal plants created in Romania (Yellow basil, Red basil, Marigold and Hyssop). Efficacy tests were performed on the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum ZUM 2407, using four concentrations, each with four repeats. It was observed the direct dependence of the efficacy of the antifungal action of the essential oils depending on the concentration used, but also its decrease in time, due to volatilization and consumption in the control process. It was established that the action of the studied essential oils is rather fungistatic for all the analyzed variants. Based on the efficacy of the antifungal action of those four essential oils, the analyzed variants could be ranked as attack intensity and a measure of economic efficiency was developed in order to further apply these solutions in agricultural practice

C. jejuni and C. coli have the greatest zoonotic potential. In humans, they cause campylobacteriosis with symptoms of food poisoning. Epidemics are mostly related to the consumption of non-chlorinated water and contaminated chicken food and in the spring-summer season. Since 2005, according to the European Food Safety Agency and the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, campylobacteriosis has been considered the leading alimentary intoxication. A review of the literature was published in Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar, electronically available scientific journals, books, textbooks, proceedings books and reports EFSA/ ECDC, FAO/ WHO. Only literature in English, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian is included. As a measure to prevent campylobacteriosis, sanitation is recommended in the primary production of chicken meat, and the use of probiotics in meat as biological preservatives is being investigated

Antibiotic resistance of Staphylococcus is increasing worldwide and is becoming a global concern. The present report exposes the study of the antibiotic susceptibility in isolates of Staphylococcus spp obtained from farm pigs. The samples were collected from healthy pigs, from different farms, in the period between 2019-2020. Forty strains of Staphylococcus were isolated from the anterior nares of individual pigs, and from the skin behind the ears of the animals. These isolates were tested against 12 different antimicrobial agents using the Kirby-Bauer disk-diffusion method. The antibiotic susceptibility profile of different bacteria isolates was studied to detect MAR, MDR. Multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) indices were determined and it was above 0.2 in 24 of the total of 40 bacteria studied. The highest MAR index was detected in Staphylococcus lentus (0.5) and Staphylococcus xylosus (0.41) and 26 (65%) strains was MDR. In conclusion, the high levels of antibiotic resistance generally correlates with high antibiotic usage and antibiotics used are a risk to humans with occupational contact with livestock antibiotics.
ALIPHATIC HYDROCARBONS BIODEGRADATION BY A Pseudomonas STRAIN
Authors: STANCU Mihaela Marilena
Published: January 2023

The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain to tolerate and degrade aliphatic petroleum hydrocarbons. P. aeruginosa IBB<sub<Ct8</sub< was isolated from a seawater sample using crude oil as the sole carbon source in a minimal medium. The bacterium was identified as P. aeruginosa based on its morphological, biochemical, and molecular characteristics. P. aeruginosa IBB<sub<Ct8</sub<, which possesses alkB (870 bp) and rhlAB (216 bp) genes in its genome, showed a higher tolerance and degradation efficiency of the n-hexadecane, n-decane, cyclohexane, or paraffin oil, compared with the tolerance to n-hexane and its degradation. P. aeruginosa IBB<sub<Ct8</sub< cells produced rhamnolipid biosurfactants which showed a very good emulsification activity against the tested aliphatic hydrocarbons. Due to its characteristics, the isolated bacterium could be used in the bioremediation of petroleum-polluted environments.

Weight-length relationships (WLRs), Fulton’s K condition factor and the size structure were investigated for common carp Cyprinus carpio (Linne, 1758) collected from Bițina 3 Pond – a freshwater ecosystem used for recreational fishing, located 40 km away from Bucharest. Negative allometric growth was estimated for common carp as: TW = 0.0563xTL<sup<2.7111</sup<; TW = 0.2301 x SL<sup<2.4175</sup< (N = 30, November 2021). The values for condition factor K ranged between 1.44 and 2.67. Water samples were collected from 7 sampling points (SP) and were subjected to physico-chemical characterization. Consequently, it was determined the following parameters: pH, electrical conductivity (EC), total hardness (TH), chemical oxygen demand (COD), phosphate phosphorus (P-PO<sub<4</sub<<sup<3-</sup<) and nitrogen pollutant species: nitrate nitrogen (N-NO<sub<3</sub<<sup<-</sup<), nitrite nitrogen (N-NO<sub<2</sub<<sup<-</sup<) and ammonium-nitrogen (N-NH<sub<4</sub<<sup<+</sup<). Total hardness values present very significant correlation with conductivity (r=0.7305***) and distinct significant correlation with pH (r=0.5765**). The results indicated that water meets the requirements for optimal development of aquatic organisms. This paper provides novel information on weight-length relationships, Fulton’s K condition factor along with environmental parameters for Cyprinus carpio collected from freshwater ponds designed for sport fishing.
