Published: October 2023

One effort to reduce the transmission of malaria is the provision of antimalarial drugs. However, the use of drugs that are not according to standards causes resistance to Plasmodium. This condition triggers the exploration of various natural compounds to prevent malaria. Secondary metabolites derived from Streptomyces sp. are known to have antimalarial activity. However, information related to secondary metabolites from Streptomyces sp. strains InaCC A497 and AB8 as antimalarials are not yet known. The purpose of this study was to determine the metabolite compounds secondary contained in Streptomyces sp. strains InaCC A497 and AB8 as antimalarial candidates. This research method is descriptive by testing secondary metabolites which are carried out through chemical compound tests, thin layer chromatography (TLC), fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR), and gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS). Test results of chemical compounds and FT-IR analysis of Streptomyces sp. InaCC A497 contains alkaloids, flavonoids, and triterpenoids, while Streptomyces sp. AB8 contains alkaloids and tannins. In the TLC test, Streptomyces sp. InaCC A497 produced an Rf value of 0.257 and Streptomyces sp. AB8 of 0.314. Based on the GC-MS test, Streptomyces sp. InaCC A497 produces acetic acid compounds, ethyl ester including the ester group, and 1,2-benzene dicarboxylic acid, dioctyl ester including the alkaloid group. Streptomyces sp. AB8 produces the compound 2-pentadecyn-1-ol which belongs to the aromatic alcohol group and cochlioquinone A belongs to the quinone group. Both compounds have antimalarial activity.

Published: October 2023

Euglena sp. is a type of microalgae are widely recognized for producing an important compound called paramylon. If Euglena sp. is grown in a medium containing a carbon source, it can produce more paramylon. The culture medium alternative must be optimized to maximize biomass production and specifically targeted metabolites. This study aims to compare the effects of glucose and glutamic acid as carbon sources on the growth rate, biomass, and paramylon (β-1,3-glucan) content of Euglena species. The treatment that carried out as the different organic carbon sources were glucose and glutamic acid. About one g/l of each treatment were added to Cramers and Myers (CM) culture medium to see how they affected growth rate, biomass, and paramylon content in Euglena sp. culture. The optical density based on absorbance was used to calculate the density of the cells, biomass was known by measuring the dry weight, and paramylon content produced was analyzed using the phenol-sulfuric acid method. The CM medium treatment with glucose added (CM+Glucose) had the highest specific growth rate, biomass, and paramylon content, with values of 2.902±0.338 (OD680/dx10-1), 0.476±0.023 g/l, and 2.416±0.129 mg/ml Euglena sp. can be utilized to produce paramylon on an industrial scale, so it is necessary to carry out further identification process regarding the species of Euglena sp. local strain, and it is hoped that there will be further research on other possible methods to increase the paramylon content in Euglena sp., such as using organic waste to replace the organic carbon source in the medium.

Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the prevalence of chronic Anaplasma marginale infection in beef bulls from eastern Kansas and compare breeding soundness parameters between A marginale–infected and uninfected bulls. We hypothesized that bulls with chronic anaplasmosis would have inferior breeding soundness exam (BSE) outcomes as a result of persistent A marginale infection or the consequence of initial clinical disease compared to uninfected bulls.

ANIMALS

535 client-owned beef bulls from eastern Kansas undergoing routine BSE.

METHODS

Complete BSEs were conducted by participating veterinarians according to the second edition of the Society for Theriogenology Manual for Breeding Soundness Examination of Bulls. Blood samples were collected for PCV determination and analysis of A marginale infection status via quantitative PCR and cELISA. Logistic and linear regression methods were used to evaluate factors associated with A marginale infection status and BSE parameters.

RESULTS

Prevalence of chronic A marginale infection was 46% (245/535) among bulls. Unsatisfactory BSE outcome was not statistically associated with chronic anaplasmosis in this study population, although more bulls with chronic anaplasmosis had unsatisfactory BSE outcomes (15.0 ± 2.4% vs 12.0 ± 2.2%).

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Chronic anaplasmosis is prevalent among eastern Kansas breeding bulls; however, no negative association between chronic anaplasmosis and breeding soundness at time of BSE was observed.
Pseudohyperkalemia in horses with rhabdomyolysis reported by an enzymatic chemistry analyzer
Authors: Valberg Stephanie J. , Clancey Noel P. , Salinger Allison , Waldridge Bryan , Tan Jean-Yin , Barton Michelle Henry
Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE

To investigate pseudohyperkalemia occurring in horses experiencing rhabdomyolysis when serum chemistry profiles are run on an VetScan VS2 analyzer (Abaxis).

ANIMALS

18 horses with rhabdomyolysis (creatine kinase [CK] > 1,000 U/L).

METHODS

In 3 horses with serum CK activities > 5,800 U/L and persistent serum potassium concentrations of > 8.5 mmol/L (VetScan VS2), potassium concentrations were reevaluated with either i-STAT Alinity Base Station (Abbott), Catalyst (Idexx), or Cobas c501 (Roche) ion-specific analyzers. Paired serum samples from 15 additional horses (median serum CK activity, 7,601 U/L; range, 1,134 to 192,447 U/L) were analyzed on both VetScan VS2 and Cobas c501 machines. Serum potassium concentrations were compared between the VetScan VS2 and ion-specific analyzers by Bland-Altman and Wilcoxon ranked tests and correlated to log10 CK activity via Pearson correlation.

RESULTS

Serum potassium concentrations were significantly higher on the VetScan VS2 (6.7 ± 1.6 mmol/L) versus the ion-specific analyzers (4.0 ± 1.1 mmol/L; P < .0001), with high bias shown in Bland-Altman analysis (43.1 ± 27.9). Potassium concentrations positively correlated with log10 CK activity with the VetScan VS2 (R2 = 0.51; P = .003) but not the Cobas (R2 = 0.09; P = .3) analyzer.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

An alternate analyzer to the VetScan VS2 should be used to evaluate serum potassium concentrations in horses with rhabdomyolysis because the VetScan VS2 methodology uses lactate dehydrogenase, which increases in serum with rhabdomyolysis and falsely elevates potassium concentrations.

Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE

To report the prevalence of presumed concurrent medial coronoid process fractures in a series of cases of humeral condylar fractures and evaluate factors influencing the presence of a suspected fracture of the medial coronoid process.

ANIMALS

48 dogs and 7 cats, with a total of 57 humeral fractures.

METHODS

Medical records of dogs and cats diagnosed with a humeral condylar fracture with radiographs were reviewed between October 2013 and March 2022. Species, sex, neutered status, age, weight, and the nature of the trauma were noted. Radiographs were assessed for the configuration of humeral condylar fracture, the presence of a suspected fractured medial coronoid process (MCP), number of MCP fragments, nature of fracture, degree of radioulnar incongruity, soft tissue swelling, and elbow luxation/subluxation.

RESULTS

A presumed fracture of the MCP was seen in 26 of 57 cases. Comminution of the condylar fracture was the only parameter that had a positive effect on the presence of a possible fractured MCP. Body weight was significantly associated with size of the suspected fractured MCP. The presence of this fracture was not associated with the type of humeral condylar fracture. The size of the presumed fractured MCP fragment was positively correlated with body weight.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

There was a high prevalence of presumed fractured MCPs in dogs with humeral condylar fractures (almost 50%) and even more so in animals with comminuted fractures. The consequences of suspected fractured MCP associated with humeral condylar fractures and whether dogs and cats would benefit from removal of the fragment remain unknown.

A floristic analysis was carried out based on floristic surveys on three regions in western Algeria according to an aridity gradient. This allowed us initially to count 100 species belonging to 75 genera and 40 families, which are predominated by asteraceae and lamiaceae with 08% of each family, Mediterranean elements dominate the biogeographical type with a percentage of 43% followed by the western Mediterranean elements. Therophytes predominate the biological spectrum of this flora with 39% followed by chamephytes with 28%. The abundance analysis shows the predominance of common elements with more than 83% of the flora, 12% of rare elements and 4% quite rare. Three morphological forms predominated by perennial woody. The Shannon (H) biodiversity index was between 2.99 and 3.37, while the Simpson index was between 0.91 and 0.95, and the Piélou equitability situated from 0.86 to 0.89. Whereas the disturbance index (DI) varied between 53 and 71% . These results show the anthropogenic pressure exerted on this ecosystem due to human activities and climate change, which requires the development of emergency restoration and conservation plans.

Zygophyllum album L. (Zygophyllaceae) is a species of arid and hyperarid zones that has been the subject of many biochemical, pharmaceutical, and medicinal studies, but this species is largely unknown ecologically. This work aims to study the diversity and describe the characteristics of the functional traits of plant species of Zygophyllum album communities associated with water towers in the Algerian Sahara. Based on subjective sampling, 17 phytoecological relevés were carried out at six sites in the Algerian Sahara. Zygophyllum album plant communities were analyzed using diversity parameters (species richness, Shannon-Weaver index, Pielou equitability) and plant functional traits (life forms, dispersal types, morphological and phytogeographic types). The results revealed the presence of 30 plant species belonging to 16 families and 28 genera. Asteraceae, Poaceae, Amaranthaceae and Apocynaceae were the most species-rich families, accounting for 60% of the total species studied. The plant communities studied were characterized by a high presence of hemicryptophytes (58.84%), anemochores (78.53%), perennial species (86.07%) and cosmopolitan species (41.55%) which witness the anthropogenic impact. Based on ordinary species values, three plant communities were individualized according to the hierarchical ascending classification. The species that dominate these communities are Phragmites communis (82.9%), Imperata cylindrica (35.2%) and Calotropis procera (28%) for community 1, Zygophyllum album (15.1%), Cistanche phelypaea (10%) and Launaea glomerata (5.1%) for community 2, Launaea resedifolia (10.2%), Hyoscyamus muticus (5.3%) and Cistanche Phelypaea (5.1%) for community 3. Community 1 is the most diverse (H’= 2.88; E= 0.88), while community 3 is the least diverse (H’=2.32; E= 0.93). This study provides baseline data for managing and conserving Zygophyllum album plant communities in arid areas.

Vehicle hood modal analysis is an essential step in the design and development process of a hood system. It involves studying the dynamic response of the vehicle’s hood structure under different operational conditions and helps in designing a proper geometry that can withstand durability and fatigue. There are many parameters in the hood system that can influence its modal response as: hood stiffness, body stiffness, equipment stiffness and position and others. Our paper summarizes some research on this topic and then provides a case study on a numerical modal analysis of a steel hood on body with and without maintain bumpers. The resonant frequencies, mode shapes, global and local displacement responses are presented for each of the selected configurations. The influence of the maintain bumpers on the dynamic response of the hood is highlighted and conclusions are made for each of the computed configuration. Finally, the paper presents a general view of the future studies on hood modal response.
Ukrainian Women are Raped, Men are Killed: The Russian Federation Violates International Law
Authors: Zavorotko Inna
Published: October 2023

The large-scale use of rape against women and the murder of men by the Russian armed forces has been widely documented since it first invaded Ukraine in February 2022. Consequently, many Ukrainian families have been affected both physically and mentally by the use of sexual and gender-based violence as a method of war. This paper presents a detailed analysis of these ‘classical’ sexual and gender-based violence cases from the perspective of grave breaches of international humanitarian law. According to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and case law, these cases constitute war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide. Investigations have already commenced into cases of sexual and gender-based violence on both the national and international level. The first Russian soldier formally accused of raping a female (wife) and killing her husband, is already standing trial before the Ukrainian courts. The International Criminal Court, within the ad hoc jurisdiction given by Ukrainian authorities, as well as specially established mechanisms and law enforcement agencies of foreign states; have also begun investigations into cases of ‘classical’ sexual and gender-based violence on the international level.
Evaluating the persisting relevance of the Uniting for Peace resolution for the maintenance of international peace and security: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Security Council Resolution 2623 (2022)
Authors: Melling Graham
Published: October 2023

This article will evaluate the question of the persisting relevance of the Uniting for Peace resolution (General Assembly resolution 377 A (V) (3 November 1950)) (henceforth U4P) to facilitating the United Nations’ role in the maintenance of international peace and security and responding to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, February 2022. The United Nations’ principal organ tasked with primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security is the United Nations Security Council. Where the Security is unable to fulfil this responsibility due to the exercise of the veto by one of its permanent members it may have recourse to the U4P resolution. In effect U4P enables the Security Council to side-step the restriction of the veto and, through a procedural mechanism, refer the matter to the General Assembly to convene an Emergency Special Session for its consideration. Alternatively, the General Assembly can initiate the procedure under the U4P resolution where the Security Council fails to take action. The Security Council’s utilisation of the U4P procedure in Security Council resolution 2623 (2022) in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was only the eighth occasion since U4P’s conception in 1950 by the General Assembly. Moreover, the last time the SC resorted to U4P was in 1982. The General Assembly has invoked U4P on at least four occasions since 1997. Under U4P the General Assembly has the power to recommend measures that can be taken for the purposes of the maintenance of international peace and security. However, the power of recommendation that the General Assembly can exercise under U4P are powers derived from the United Nation’s Charter and not from the U4P resolution. Other than introducing the concept of ‘emergency special sessions’, the U4P resolution does not establish a procedural mechanism not already provided for in the UN Charter. Therefore, in responding to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine the General Assembly has the power to make recommendations with or without reference to the U4P resolution. In this article it will be argued that U4P does not give the General Assembly powers it does not already have under the Charter. It is clear from Resolution 377A (V) that a key premise for the resort to U4P is to empower the General Assembly to take ‘collective measures’ for the maintenance of international peace and security in lieu of the Security Council being able to do so due to the casting of the veto by one of the permanent members. However, U4P is not an independent source of the Assembly’s powers, it is merely an aspect of its practice and the General Assembly has the power to make such a recommendation for ‘collective measures’ in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by virtue of the UN Charter, with or without reference to the U4P resolution.

Since the beginning of Christianity, pulpit or church sermons have been the primary mode of delivering sermons. The last decade has seen huge progress in technological advancement in Africa. Several pastors have now empowered themselves with the use of technology in their ministry and in delivering sermons. In 2019, Covid-19 swept across the globe and caused worldwide panic. In South Africa, the National Institute for Communicable Diseases reported the first case of Covid-19 in March 2020. To contain the spread of the coronavirus, the President of South Africa, Mr Cyril Ramaphosa, announced a lockdown for 21 days and alert level 5 was imposed on South Africans. That compelled all South Africans to stay at home, and all faith-based gatherings were prohibited. Thus, preaching the Word of God in churches was prohibited. During the pandemic, online sermons or the streaming of church services online became a popular way of hearing Sunday sermons. This article discusses the historical use of technology, for example, radio and television, which were the tools employed to reach out further. We will explore the recent use of online sermons and electronic communion in churches, particularly in the Catholic Church. Statistics will be scrutinised to examine the effects of online sermons and faith practices (electronic communion). In achieving the goal of this article, the study utilised desk research and oral interviews through a narrative analysis of aspects mentioned by church leaders and congregants considered to relate directly to online sermons and electronic communion. The following will be points of discussion: methodology, with a brief discussion of data collection and analysis; the Covid-19 crisis; the impact of coronavirus and leadership; alternative methods employed by the Diocese of Bethlehem; challenges with online sermons; successes; electronic communion; recommendations; and conclusion.
