Published: November 2024

Near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy can be an alternative method that is faster and more
accurate in monitoring the deterioration of cooking oil quality compared to chemical
methods. This study aimed to assess NIR spectroscopy for monitoring the quality change
of cooking oil that was used repeatedly, to determine the best spectra data pre-treatment
and the number of main factors of partial least square (PLS) for prediction of the quality
of cooking oil. Cooking oil samples were produced 0-15 times in the frying process using
the double layer of the fryer so that there were variations in quality at each stage of frying
with a total of thirty-two samples. Transflectance of cooking oil was measured by fourier
transform NIR spectrometer at the wavelength of 1000-2500 nm. Peroxide number and
free fatty acid content as the main chemical content of cooking oil parameters were
determined by chemical method. Some spectra pre-treatments were applied and the
calibration between NIR data and chemical data was carried out using PLS. The best
calibration was selected based on the highest correlation coefficient (r), the lowest
standard error of calibration (SEC), and the lowest standard error of prediction (SEP). The
best accurate prediction of peroxide number was obtained by absorbance spectra with
detrending pre-treatment at a PLS factor of 7 with a r value of 0.93, SEC of 0.17%, and
SEP of 0.16%. Meanwhile, free fatty acid (FFA) content was original absorbance spectra
at 8 factors of PLS with a r value of 0.94, SEC of 0.016%, and SEP of 0.019%. These
results indicated that NIR spectroscopy can be used to monitor the quality change of
cooking oil.

Authors: Zhang Jie
Published: November 2024

English Stylistics is provided as an elective course by the Business English major at Guangdong Technology College, whose evaluation mechanism significantly impacts how well students learn the language. A novel assessment model is put forth in this study with the intention of transforming from a single summative assessment to a combination of formative and summative assessment in light of the shortcomings of the current assessment methodology in the course. In order to take advantage of blended teaching and integrate the online and offline learning resources of English Stylistics, all-round reforms have been carried out at multiple levels, including teaching content, teaching methods, and assessment approaches. Therefore, a more reasonable and diversified assessment method has been adopted to more comprehensively reflect students’ learning objectives and proficiency in foreign languages.
Analisa Perbandingan Metode Regresi Linier dan Regresi Non Linier Berdasarkan Data Kebutuhan Listrik Di Provinsi Jawa Tengah Pada Tahun 2021 dan 2023
Authors: Andini Rizka -
Published: November 2024

Penelitian ini menyajikan analisis kebutuhan listrik di wilayah Jawa Tengah, dimana konsumsi listrik semakin meningkat akibat pertumbuhan penduduk dan perluasan industri. Studi ini membandingkan dua pendekatan statistik untuk memodelkan permintaan listrik pada tahun 2021 dan 2023 menggunakan regresi linier dan regresi nonlinier. Meskipun regresi linier memberikan hasil yang akurat dengan koefisien korelasi yang tinggi, regresi linier mungkin tidak sepenuhnya menangkap kompleksitas pola konsumsi daya. Sebaliknya, regresi nonlinier memberikan lebih banyak fleksibilitas  dalam memodelkan hubungan kompleks antar variabel, namun memiliki koefisien korelasi yang lebih rendah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kedua metode tersebut memiliki keunggulan masing-masing dalam memprediksi konsumsi daya dan dapat digunakan secara saling melengkapi tergantung pada karakteristik data dan tujuan analisis. Temuan-temuan ini diharapkan dapat memberikan kontribusi terhadap perencanaan energi yang lebih efektif di masa depan dan memberikan panduan bagi para pengambil kebijakan dan pemangku kepentingan di sektor energi.

Authors: Данилюк-Терещук Тетяна
Published: November 2024

The article elucidates the features of the Kosach family’s gastronomic culture, using the letters and memories as the case study material. The food preferences of the family were formed in the traditions of national cuisine, however, the processes of food preparation and its processing had distinct regional features. Family practices of harvesting and processing fruits and berries (jam, jelly), vegetables (pickling), preparation of festive and ritual dishes (kutia), and cooking (cherry dumplings, cookies, pies) are defined as the tastes of home. The information about festive culinary traditions (Christmas, Easter) is essential in thiscontext. The family changed places of residence (Zviagel, Lutsk, Kolodiazhne, Kyiv) but hospitality remained unchanged, as evidenced by the memories of parents' friends and children. The study findings argue that food was a significant element of intercultural communication in the family. The family members shared their impressions about new tastes experienced during travels. Over time, the tastes of home and foreign dishes were combined and established as favorites because, in addition to nutritional value, they conveyed various senses and encouraged reflection. Izydora Kosach-Borysova's recipes for "Grandma Lyzaveta's Borsch" and French dessert"Floating Islands (Oeufs a la Neige) are evocative illustrations for family gastronomic stories.

Published: November 2024

Food safety has become a global issue. Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) is a food safety assurance system in the world that emphasizes prevention efforts. This research is a qualitative descriptive epidemiological study which aims to examine the application of HACCP in the distribution chain of frozen chicken meat in Sikka Regency on the growth parameters of total bacteria, Salmonella, and antibiotic residues through field observations at supplier companies and retailers, as well as laboratory tests on 30 frozen chicken meat samples, and 30 fresh chicken meat samples as a comparison. Laboratory tests found antibiotic residues in 60% of samples (16.7% in fresh chicken meat), and microbial contamination in 33% of samples without Salmonella contamination (40% in fresh chicken meat without Salmonella contamination). Monitoring of antibiotic residues has not been carried out properly by supplier companies because the number of samples is very small, sales in markets without refrigeration facilities for up to five hours together with fresh chicken or near fresh fish allows contamination of chicken meat. HACCP principles have not been properly applied in the frozen chicken meat distribution chain. Guidance and regular monitoring are needed so that the quality of frozen chicken meat is maintained.

PRODUKTIVITAS DAN KESEHATAN AYAM BROILER PASCA LARANGAN ANTI GROWTH PROMOTERS DI INDONESIA
Authors: Sihombing Dewi Elfrida , Fajri Aulia Irhamni
Published: November 2024

Antibiotic Growth Promoters (AGP) have been used in the broiler industry to improve growth performance. The use of AGPs over a long period of time has led to antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Therefore, the Indonesian government has banned the use of AGPs. This has led to the search for alternative strategies to maintain productivity and the health of broiler chickens. This review aims to examine the productivity and health of broiler chickens following the AGP ban and explore potential alternatives. The ban on AGPs has resulted in decreased productivity and increased mortality in broiler chickens. Several alternatives to AGPs have been proposed, including the use of natural growth promoters and the implementation of strict biosecurity measures. Natural growth promoters, such as plant extracts have shown promising results in improving growth performance and gut health in broiler chickens. The implementation of biosecurity measures can help to prevent and control diseases, thus reducing the need for antibiotics. In conclusion, the ban on AGPs has created challenges for the broiler industry in Indonesia. However, the use of natural growth promoters and the implementation of biosecurity measures offer potential solutions to maintain productivity and the health of broiler chickens.

Authors: Syarifuddin Ahmad
Published: November 2024

Enucleation is a procedure for removing the eye in cats due to pathological conditions that cannot be treated with medical therapy, such as uncontrolled glaucoma or intraocular tumors. Prolapse of the bulbus oculi in cats is generally caused by glaucoma (increased intraocular pressure), bacterial or viral infections, trauma from being hit by a vehicle, scratches or fights with other animals, and eye tumors. The subject of this case was a male cat named Chiko, approximately 1 year old, weighing 2.5 kg, who was brought to the She Wee Veterinary Clinic in Palembang with the complaint of a protruding eye. Based on the anamnesis, physical examination, and clinical symptoms, Chiko was diagnosed with bulbus oculi prolapse and underwent medical treatment in the form of an enucleation surgery. The treatment administered included antibiotics, vitamins, analgesics, and ointments. The use of an Elizabethan collar was also recommended to prevent the wound from being scratched. Recovery showed good wound healing within approximately 7 days without serious complications. It was concluded that the enucleation procedure performed on Chiko, using the transpalpebral technique, had a fausta prognosis.
Keywords: Prolapse, Bulbus Oculi, Enucleation, Eye and Cat.

PSYCHOLOGICAL SUPPORT AND CORRECTION OF COPING STRATEGIES OF WOMEN VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Authors:   UNIVERSITY OF EDUCATIONAL MANAGEMENT, Popovych Yaroslava
Published: November 2024

The article raises the topic of psychological support and correction of coping strategies of women victims of domestic violence and summarises the algorithm of actions.

Coping strategies are a necessary component of a person's life under any conditions of struggle. The ways and methods of overcoming difficult circumstances depend on many factors, including the possible division into constructive and destructive strategies. There are many reasons for this or that choice, ranging from the conditions of early development, growth and personality formation to the presence of aggravating circumstances. Domestic violence, unfortunately, is still a topical issue in Ukrainian society, where the habit of justification and suffering in the face of abuse are intertwined, which undoubtedly affects the choice of coping.

The overwhelming majority of victims of domestic violence are women, and they are the focus of this article, which discusses the main approaches to the formation of constructive coping strategies and ways to achieve this goal.

Thus, one of the main conditions is the provision of psychological support and the subsequent long-term correctional programme, which is designed to form constructive coping strategies, encouraging them to leave the cycle of violence. Such work requires the gradual involvement of women victims of domestic violence in the process of overcoming, consolidation of the initial result, correction of coping strategies and subsequent participation. It is also important to pay attention to the careful training of professionals who accompany the process of correcting coping strategies, as it requires empathy and constant communication with women.

The path of developing constructive coping strategies for women victims of domestic violence can be long and sometimes difficult, but it can change the quality of life and achieve psychological well-being.
Money, Women, Crosses: The Creation of Sacred Boundaries in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in the 15th –17th Centuries
Authors:   Lomonosov Moscow State University, Shpirt Andrey
Published: November 2024

The article seeks to explore various aspects of Jewish-Christian relations through the lens of social and cultural anthropology. Based on a wide range of literature, act and folklore sources the author poses some questions on sacred and religious violence, creation, perception and observance of social, gender and religious boundaries, institutional inequality as a long durée structure. Sacred space is usually perceived as the result of a synergy of divine and anthropogenic factors. The sacred creates, restores or emphasizes the human connection with the divine. Other features of the sacred are cyclicality and regulation. In this regard, the sacred is often local – ritual, ecclesiastical or near-church space, a place of memory. The literature notes a close connection between the sacred and violence. This article also intends to talk about the “public” sacred space that had been imagined in the post-Reformation era with its re-establishment of religious boundaries between the victors and the vanquished. The potential of new approaches in the study of Jewish-Christian relations in the multi-confessional space of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is demonstrated based on the example of conflicts between Jews and the Uniate clergy in the middle of the 17th century.

Lev Levanda’s novel “The Seething Times”, dedicated to the 1863 Polish uprising, was published in the Jewish Library magazine from 1871 to 1873. The narrative covers the period from 1861 to 1864 and the author focuses on the dramatic process of self-determination of the Jews of Lithuania against the backdrop of an uprising and the process of changing their national and civic orientations. Although “The Seething Times” enjoyed popularity in the 19 th century, currently remains an object of interest to researchers. In particular, we can point to two articles by Shimon Markish, “Is It Worth Rereading Lev Levanda?” (Bulletin of the Jewish University in Moscow (1995, No. 3; 1996, No. 1), included in the collection of his works “Russian-Jewish Literature: From A to Z” (Orenburg, 2020). The first of them contains an article by Samuil Osipovich Gruzenberg “Brief Biographical Information about L. O. Levanda” (Weekly Chronicle of Sunrise, 1888, No. 11), which remains, as Markish emphasized, the most complete overview of the writer’s life and work.Thus, this study, which analyzes issues of personal and social self-determination in the novel, can be considered relevant.

The purpose of the study is to determine the ways of self-identification of the characters of the novel “The Seething Times” and the influence of social processes on their self-determination.

To achieve this goal, the following tasks have been outlined: an analysis of the novel’s text and character descriptions regarding self-identification, as well as an investigation into how contemporary social conditions shaped the characters’ expressions and ideas. The research draws on the text of “The Seething Times” alongside contemporary political and critical writings. Analyzing the text of the novel “The Seething Times” and the journalist texts accompanying it, we can say that the author considers the issue of national self-identification of Jews as a determinative factor in the process of their assimilation into the Russian Empire. On the other hand, the historical background of the 1863 Polish uprising allows the author to go beyond the standard narrative of an anti-nihilistic novel and depict the search for personal and social identification in different strata of Jewish society.
Plots About Kind and “Cultured” Germans in Oral Narratives About the Occupation

The aim of this research is to analyze oral narratives regarding peaceful coexistence with the Nazis in the occupied Soviet territories. The interviews examined in this study were collected by the Sefer Center and the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Center. While such stories are widespread, they are historically inaccurate and lack media parallels. In this article, I seek to explain the popularity and persistence of these narratives within oral tradition by employing methods from Folklore Studies and Cognitive Psychology. My hypothesis posits that their appeal is linked to ethnic stereotypes surrounding German culture. Additionally, it may be attributed to the unique aspects of peasant ethics, where judgment is made only to members of the local community.
Bioenergetic modeling reveals opposing effects of ocean and terrestrial warming of an intertidal crustacean

Published: November 2024

Organism-level bioenergetics models (OBMs) are an emerging tool for predicting consequences of climate change on organism growth in ecological systems. Global changes in ocean and atmospheric temperature may affect organisms that experience both environments, such as those living in intertidal systems. The acorn barnacle, Balanus glandula, is prevalent throughout the intertidal zone in the Eastern Pacific, and laboratory experiments demonstrate that feeding rates and metabolic costs are sensitive to temperature. We ask, based on these thermal responses, do aerial and aquatic warming decrease B. glandula growth in a field environment because of increased costs and reduced feeding? We measure environmental conditions (aerial and aquatic temperature) at three intertidal heights over two 6-month intervals and compare growth estimates based on an OBM to observed growth. Initial work indicates that growth is less sensitive to elevation than predicted by lab-based physiological rates alone, so we estimate an elevation-dependent compensation factor (Z) when fitting the model to all three elevations and the two intervals. This full model predicts that, in this environment, aquatic warming will counteract increased costs of aerial warming, by virtue of increased feeding at warmer temperatures. This work advances OBMs by combining the effects of multiple decoupled thermal responses (e.g. feeding, respiration) in multiple contexts (aerial, aquatic), drawing on established model selection and “divide and conquer” techniques, and identifying sources of uncertainty in the model. This work indicates that future intertidal OBMs may benefit from an improved characterization of feeding behavior, including empirical estimates of elevation-dependent feeding compensation.
Metabolic Plasticity. An Evolutionary Perspective on Bipolar Disorder, Insulin Signalling and Ketosis
Authors: Campbell Iain , Frye Mark , Campbell Harry
Published: November 2024

The emerging field of Metabolic Psychiatry has brought mechanisms of metabolic dysfunction into focus in bipolar disorder research. In this manuscript we highlight the preserved evolutionary roots of mechanisms of metabolic adaptation and their interaction with established mechanisms of circadian dysfunction in bipolar disorder. Throughout evolutionary history, selective pressures in the environment caused many biological organisms to develop patterns of seasonal metabolic adaptation. States of hypometabolism, characterised by reduced basal metabolic rate, suppression of insulin signalling and glucose metabolism, suppressed circadian rhythmicity, and increased reliance on fatty acid and ketone body metabolism were adaptive during states such as torpor and hibernation. Conversely, seasonal hypermetabolic states were advantageous for survival in scenarios such as migration, where increased fatty acid metabolism was also a critical component of physiological adaptations. The mechanisms underpinning these metabolic changes are intricately interlinked with circadian systems, which are responsive to changes in photoperiod and drive patterns of seasonal adaptation. While humans have been largely removed from the selective pressures of our evolutionary predecessors, similar chrono-metabolic mechanisms underlying seasonal adaptation are preserved in human biology, and play important roles in tuning metabolism to environmental cues. In this manuscript we highlight evolutionarily preserved metabolic and circadian mechanisms which are implicated in bipolar disorder pathophysiology, and we compare these to mechanisms which have mediated seasonal metabolic adaptation throughout evolutionary history.
The Student Feedback Literacy Instrument (SFLI): Multilingual Validation and Introduction of a Short-Form Version
Authors: Weidlich Joshua
Published: November 2024

Feedback literacy is increasingly recognized as essential individual difference for how students approach and learn from feedback in higher education. This study provides validity evidence for a refined version of the Student Feedback Literacy Instrument (SFLI), designed to measure the construct across two dimensions –feedback attitudes and feedback practices– in three languages: German, English, and Turkish. We developed both a full-length and a short-form version (SFLI-S). Using confirmatory factor analyses on different student samples (Ntotal= 1424), we confirmed the two-factor structure across languages, supporting the model of feedback literacy comprising of attitudinal and behavioral components. Associations with related constructs further support the instrument’s convergent validity. As a psychometrically sound, multilingual instrument, the SFLI can facilitate cross-cultural feedback literacy research and provides a valuable tool for research and educational practice. The SFLI-S offers an economical alternative, enabling wider integration into studies on how students engage with feedback.

Authors: Ammar Bahadur Rokaya  , Akhilesh Chandra Pandey
Published: November 2024

This study investigates the perspectives and experiences regarding market opportunities and challenges of organic products in Karnali Province, Nepal. By conducting in-depth interviews with 30 participants, including farmers, entrepreneurs, and experts in the organic sector, the study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the organic market dynamics in this region. The findings reveal significant market opportunities driven by growing local and international demand for organic products, increased health consciousness, and environmental awareness. Integrated agro-tourism, government and NGO support, export potential, and local community empowerment further enhance the market prospects. However, several challenges impede the growth of the organic sector in Karnali Province, Nepal. These include limited infrastructure difficulties in obtaining organic certification, restricted market access, intense competition from conventional products, and a need for more technical skills and knowledge among farmers. Additionally, local consumer awareness and perception of organic products need improvement to sustain market demand. The study underscores the need for collaborative efforts from public and private stakeholders to invest in infrastructure, provide technical training, streamline certification processes, and enhance market access. Addressing these challenges can help maximize the potential of organic farming in Karnali Province, promoting sustainable economic growth, environmental conservation, and improved livelihoods for local communities.
