The influence of organizational and technological complexity on the period of job execution
Authors: Dorogan Igor A.
Published: November 2019

Introduction. An essential index of the efficiency of the construction organization is its building period, which depends on the timing of individual work items. It is especially significant for large projects of public buildings including ones of medical establishments being complicated installations regarding their space-and-planning and technological aspects. It is known that the job duration is influenced by its complexity and number of workers assigned for it. However, the influence of the job complexity remains unexplored. It can be expressed by the average job grade and quantity of requirements for the job results. In addition to this, the nonlinear feature of the dependencies is not studied.

Materials and methods. A statistical study was conducted to examine the feature of the processes and the reason for managing requirements. It was based on the data of the job labor content, complexity and duration, the number of workers during the construction of the Research Institute of Pediatric Oncology and Hematology building of the Scientific Medicine Centre of Oncology named after N.N. Blokhin in Moscow. The analysis showed the regression equation, the correlation, and determination coefficients. The significance of the coefficients was estimated using the Student’s criterion.

Results. The study demonstrated a nonlinear dependence on the factors considered on the job duration. However, the average job grade is of a minor effect and can be excluded from the influencing factors. On the contrary, the quantity of requirements has a significant impact, which indicates the need to manage the requirements in the course of construction.

Conclusions. To reduce the job duration, it is necessary to create a requirements management system that will also improve the quality of the performed work. In the future, it is expedient to conduct research on other construction projects.
Container shipping in the Great Lakes: current situation and future potential
Authors: Floyd John , Roach James L , Taylor John C
Published: November 2019

Containerization has had an outsized impact on the growth of global trade over the past 60 years. The Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway is an important bi-national waterway. Since the advent of containerization in the 1950’s there has been much excitement about the prospects of scheduled container shipping in the Great Lakes. There is a perception that direct container service will add value to the economy of the Great Lakes- St. Lawrence Basin (GLSLB). However, due to unique shipping constraints in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Seaway, significant container service has not materialized. This research seeks to explain the current state of container shipping in the Great Lakes, as well as provide an analysis of the feasibility of future container shipping in the Great Lakes. It is very important for policymakers to understand both the opportunities for container shipping, and the barriers and issues with such services. A lack of understanding of these points can lead to missed opportunities and/or the potential for significant expenditures of time and money on unrealistic projects.
Measurement invariance of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale in parents of individuals with disabilities
Authors: Park Eun-Young , Kim Joungmin
Published: November 2019

We aimed to verify the factor model and measurement invariance of the abbreviated Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale by conducting a confirmatory factor analysis using data from 761 parents of individuals with intellectual disabilities who completed the scale as part
of the 2011 Survey on the Actual Conditions of Individuals with Developmental Disabilities, South Korea, and 7,301 participants from the general population who completed the scale as part of the 2011 Welfare Panel Study and Survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, South Korea. We used
fit indices to assess data reliability and Amos 22.0 for data analysis. According to the results, the 4-factor model had an appropriate fit to the data and the regression coefficients were significant. However, the chi-square difference test result was nonsignificant; therefore, the metric
invariance model was the most appropriate measurement invariance model for the data. Implications of the findings are discussed.
Psychological detachment and research performance: Work engagement as a mediator
Authors: Guo Yungui , Zhu Yanting
Published: November 2019

We examined the mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between psychological detachment and research performance using structural equation modeling and bootstrapping analysis. Participants comprised 923 teachers from 39 key universities in China, who completed measures
of psychological detachment, research performance, and work engagement. The results indicated that psychological detachment was negatively associated with research performance, and that work engagement mediated this relationship. Our findings enrich understanding of the effects of psychological
detachment on research performance. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
The effect of power on donation intention: A moderated mediation model
Authors: Liu Yanbin , Yuan Ping , Lu Hongxu , Ju Fanghui
Published: November 2019

Drawing on the theory of planned behavior, we examined if powerful individuals are more likely to demonstrate a donation intention if they have a strong moral identity, and if sense of power coupled with moral identity can transform the perception of obligation into donation intention.
Participants were 372 passersby who were randomly recruited from 6 survey points we set up near commercial districts in Ningbo, Zhejiang, China. Results demonstrated a higher donation intention in individuals with a sense of power when coupled with moral identity, and this interactive effect
on donation intention was mediated by perception of obligation to others in need. Our findings reveal the significance of emphasizing an individual’s moral identity and perception of obligation in fundraising activities. The implications of the fundraising activities of civil affairs
department staff in China are discussed.
Predictors and outcomes of Vietnamese university graduates’ networking behavior as job seekers
Authors: Lin Shang-Ping , Le Son-Tung
Published: November 2019

Although networking is considered a positive job search behavior, scholars have paid little attention to the role of networking in an individual’s job search outcomes. In this research we used structural equation modeling to test empirically the relationship between networking
behavior and job search outcomes with a sample of 773 Vietnamese university graduates. We also integrated individual difference theory and social network theory to investigate the predictors of networking behavior that indirectly influence employment outcomes. Results show that networking
behavior had a positive effect on a job seeker’s chances of obtaining a job interview and receiving a job offer. In addition, the individual differences of personality traits, jobsearch clarity, and networking comfort, as well as network size and tie strength in the structure of the
network, were significant antecedents of job seekers’ networking behavior. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
Creating mandalas reduces social anxiety in college students
Authors: Bi Yufang , Liu Yongfang
Published: November 2019

In 2 experiments we investigated the effectiveness of creating mandalas for reducing social anxiety in college students. In Experiment 1 we measured social anxiety in a sample of 71 college students using the Interaction Anxiety Scale, comparing a group who created a mandala with a
group who engaged in free drawing. The results indicated that creating a mandala reduced social anxiety more than free drawing did. In Experiment 2 we used the Interaction Anxiety Scale and measured electrodermal activity, which is an important physiological index of anxiety, to further compare
social anxiety changes between creating a mandala and drawing within a square in a sample of 75 college students. We found that creating a mandala was more effective for reducing electrodermal activity and social anxiety scores than was drawing within a square. These findings indicate that
creating mandalas can be used to relieve and treat social anxiety.

Évaluation de l’exactitude du Système canadien hospitalier d’information et de recherche en prévention des traumatismes dans la représentation des taux de traumatismes crâniens légers au Québec
Authors: Keays Glenn , Friedman Debbie , Gagnon Isabelle , Beaudin Marianne
Published: November 2019

Introduction

L’augmentation récente du nombre de cas de traumatismes crâniens légers (TCL) dans la population pédiatrique est étayée par de nombreuses études au Canada et aux États-Unis. L’objectif de notre étude était de comparer les taux de TCL du Système canadien hospitalier d’information et de recherche en prévention des traumatismes (SCHIRPT) à Montréal aux taux fondés sur la population (taux de TCL au Québec).

Méthodologie

Nous avons calculé les taux de TCL du SCHIRPT selon deux méthodes, en utilisant comme dénominateur : 1) toutes les blessures du SCHIRPT et 2) le nombre d’enfants et de jeunes de 0 à 17 ans vivant dans un rayon de 5 km de l’un des deux centres participant au SCHIRPT à Montréal. Nous avons comparé les taux de TCL du SCHIRPT aux taux provinciaux en fonction du sexe et de l’âge.

Résultats

Que le dénominateur soit l’ensemble des blessures du SCHIRPT ou le nombre d’enfants et de jeunes de 0 à 17 ans vivant dans un rayon de 5 km de l’un des deux centres participant au SCHIRPT à Montréal, les fluctuations observées dans le SCHIRPT se sont révélées parallèles à celles des taux du Québec entre 2003 et 2016. Avec la stratification des données selon le sexe et l’âge, le SCHIRPT a généré de meilleures estimations des taux fondés sur la population pour les groupes d’âge les plus jeunes (de 0 à 4 ans) et les plus âgés (de 13 à 17 ans).

Conclusion

Le SCHIRPT de Montréal est un outil valable pour estimer les variations des taux de TCL au sein de la population. Il pourrait donc aussi être utilisé pour estimer les taux fondés sur la population pour d’autres types de blessures.
THE DRAMATURGY OF THE AMBITION TO ELIMINATE CORRUPTION : THE BRIBERY CASE OF IMPORTED SUGAR DISTRIBUTION
Authors: Asmara Teddy , Wahid Abdul
Published: November 2019

This non-doctrinal study analyzes the practice of ignoring the values of logical-factual justice and righteousness to eliminate corruption among the high-positioned state officials. The aim is to describe the establishment of criminal trials which are ambitious, which yet has counterproductive effects. There is not only injustice, but there is also the ignorance of the premise of material righteousness as the rational working character of criminal law. The primary data is in the form of interview to the perpetrators and the informants. The secondary data is in the form of case documents, which are analyzed qualitatively with the hermeneutic interpretation technique. Results of the study show that the ambitious elimination of corruption has the potentials to break the logics of criminal trials and restricts the ratio and conscience of law enforcers.

Published: November 2019

La habilidad de programar es una de las capacidades que desarrollan o, en su caso, potencializan los estudiantes de Ingeniería en Computación, algunos estudios en la literatura parten de la premisa de que dicha habilidad tiene asociación directa con la capacidad creativa de los estudiantes; a partir de lo anterior, la presente investigación tuvo como objetivo identificar la relación que existe entre la creatividad de un estudiante de Ingeniería en Computación y su rendimiento como programador, representado por el promedio obtenido en ciertas asignaturas. El método aplicado fue cuantitativo, transversal, de alcance explicativo y para la recuperación de datos se utilizó el test CREA. Los resultados indican que la creatividad no es incidente para la habilidad de programar y que son otros factores los que influyen para desarrollarla, tales como la motivación incentivada principalmente por el docente y el contexto que rodea al programador.
Effect of FSW welding parameters on the tensile strength of aluminum alloys
Authors: Serier Mohamed , Berrahou Mohamed , Tabti Affaf , Bendaoudi Seif-E
Published: November 2019

The friction stir welding process is an innovative technique for joining metals using plasticity, without presenting the fusion. It was first applied to aluminum alloys, for example copper, steel alloys, polymers and others. In this work the effects of the rotational speed, the speed of travel and the axial force of the tool were grouped in a mathematical model to quantify their influences on the weld seam. In this context and with of the experimental tests, the desired objective through this study is to describe the tensile strength of the cord resulting from this welding operation, for the qualification of this type of parts with an optimum adapted to a given application.
The impact of changes in the geological conditions of road bedrock layers while the road was in use
Authors: Smugala Stanislav , Kubečková Darja , Indra František
Published: November 2019

This article examines the effective road reconstruction technologies applied during construction processes to ensure the required final quality of construction work. The construction quality and especially the overall levelness of roads are influenced by several factors. These factors include high-quality implementation of road structural layers, including active zones, which can be adversely affected by the undisciplined application of technology, insufficient engineering and poor geological surveys. Suitable and effective reconstruction technology provides the required quality of construction work yet does not significantly extend construction time. The authors propose stabilisation using cement or lime during reconstruction. This stabilisation method is used if the structure of the bedrock layers is finely granular. The stabilisation process consists of excavating the unacceptable bedrock layer and mixing it with additives and water. A principally different bedrock stabilisation method consists of completely replacing it with a gravel layer, which is used when individual base layers are diverse and stabilisation using additives would not guarantee the required results, i.e. improved strength characteristics. In some cases, the existing base layers are not suitable for use as road base layers because of their characteristics, such as volumetric instability. For this reason, they must be replaced with more suitable materials. This topic is documented by a practical example.
Analysis of Operation Parameters of Fish Refrigeration by Exergy Analysis. Case Study
Authors: Terehovics Edvins , Veidenbergs Ivars , Blumberga Dagnija
Published: November 2019

Unlike energy efficiency, in terms of exergy efficiency it is possible to compare the existing operation of an energy conversion system with the ideal operation. Exergy loses and exergy destruction make it possible to identify the shortcomings of an existing system, which should be improved immediately. With exergy analysis, it is possible to identify the priority actions that need to be taken in order to improve the functioning of the system: greater exergy loss prevention is the highest priority. Energy efficiency refers to the useful work and investments needed to obtain useful work and investments needed to obtain energy efficiency; this is important to some extent, but the effectiveness of exergy makes it possible to compare system performance with the ideal. Results shows that the highest exergy destruction of a single-stage compressor refrigeration system from all working condition is found when ambient temperature and freezer temperature difference is 10 ºC, pressure in compressor is 0.62 MPa, ammonia temperature after compressor is 90 ºC, total exergy destruction of single-stage compressor refrigeration system 97.84 kW. The highest exergy efficiency of a single-stage compressor refrigeration system from all the working conditions is found when ambient temperature and freezer temperature difference is 39 ºC, pressure in compressor is 0.45 MPa, ammonia temperature after compressor is 128 ºC, exergy efficiency of a single-stage compressor refrigeration system is 59.76 %. The highest total exergy destruction of a two-stage compressor refrigeration system from among all the working conditions is found to be when the ambient temperature and freezer temperature difference is at 13 ºC, pressure in compressor 0.44 MPa, ammonia temperature after compressor 76 ºC, total exergy destruction 83.86 kW. The highest exergy efficiency of a two-stage compressor refrigeration system from among all the working conditions is found to be at an ambient temperature and freezer temperature difference of 39 ºC, pressure in compressor 0.56 MPa, ammonia temperature after compressor 92 ºC, exergy efficiency 53.55 %.

Published: November 2019

In a research project conducted in a multilingual classroom, the teaching practice and pupils’ texts are studied during their first years of schooling. The teaching practice entails explicit teaching of text structures and experiences for the students to use in their writing. The aim of the study, presented here, is to investigate students’ first school texts, students’ relations to their texts and the texts’ relation to the teaching practice. The material of the study consists of pupils’ written texts, and data are also collected by observations and interviews. The study draws on dialogism, systemic functional linguistics and theories of the language of schooling. The main theoretical framework is supplemented by theories of second language acquisition and discoursal construction of writer identity. The main findings of the analysis are that the students in their texts make use of the teaching of text structures and the experiences they were involved in. The texts are characterized by everyday knowledge and language, as well as attempts to use scientific knowledge and language. The students show high text movability, i.e. ability talk about their texts in different ways, which indicates their potentials to take discourse roles and positioning themselves in the texts.
Wujudkan Karakter Budaya Cinta Lingkungan Bersih Melalui Kegiatan “Selamatkan Bumi Dari Sampah” Pada Siswa SDN Bangkal II Sumenep
Authors: Herowati Herowati , Azizah Lutfiana Fazad
Published: November 2019

Fenomena buang sampah tidak pada tempatnya disebabkan kurangnya rasa peduli lingkungan bersih dari masyarakat. Masalah sampah merupakan masalah yang rumit karena kurangnya pengertian masyarakat terhadap akibat-akibat yang dapat ditimbulkan oleh sampah. Hal ini juga terjadi di Desa Bangkal kecamatan kota Sumenep, tumpukan sampah dijumpai di setiap pojok bawah jembatan sungai dan juga di beberapa tempat di pinggir sungai yang merupakan limbah buangan dari rumah tangga. Masyarakat belajar dengan cara yang paling mudah adalah dengan meniru dan sebagain besar masyarakat belajar suatu perilaku adalah dengan meniru. Begitupun dengan perkembangan psikologi anak merupakan seorang peniru ulung. Setiap saat, mata anak selalu mengamati, telinganya selalu menyimak, dan pikirannya selalu mencerna apapun yang dilakukan oleh orang disekitarnya. Fenomena ini tidak boleh ditiru oleh generasi berikutnya. Masyarakat usia belajar membaca dan berimajinasi (7-12 tahun) Desa Bangkal merupakan generasi penerus bangsa yang diharapkan memiliki karakter baik yang pada saat dewasa, salah satu karakter yang perlu ditanamkan pada anak dilingkungan sekolah adalah cinta kebersihan dan lingkungan. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian dengan sasaran masyarakat usia belajar membaca dan berimajinasi (7-12 tahun) yaitu siswa/siswi SDN Bangkal 2 adalah 1). kegiatan edukasi cinta lingkungan bersih di lingkungan sekitar dan lingkungan sekolah dengan tema “selamatkan bumi dari sampah”. 2) kegiatan melatih dan menciptakan atmoser cinta lingkungan bersih di lingkungan sekitar dan lingkungan sekolah dengan gerakan minimalisasi penggunaan bahan plastic sebagai tempat makan dan minum. Berdasarkan hasil kegiatan yang telah dilaksanakan diperoleh informasi berupa dokumentasi dan hasil kegiatan, dapat dibuat simpulan bahwa kegiatan edukasi cinta lingkungan bersih di lingkungan sekitar dan lingkungan sekolah dengan tema “selamatkan bumi dari sampah” di SDN Bangkal 2 sangat bermanfaat dan dapat dilaksanakan untuk program pengabdian kepada masyarakat, dengan terwujudnya lingkungan bersih di lingkungan sekolah yang secara tidak langsung mengajarkan anak untuk mencintai dan melestarikan lingkungan.

Construcción de identidad y estructuras de poder y control en el aula de clase
Authors: López Jiménez Nelson Ernesto , Celeita Buitrago Laura Estefany , Perdomo Cortés Wilson Roberto
Published: November 2019

Dando continuidad a la línea de trabajo investigativo, el Grupo PACA, Categoría A de Col­ciencias, se presenta un estudio sistemático sabre las relaciones de poder y control que subya­cen en el aula de clase y que a la postre contribuyen a la construcción de identidad profesio­nal o subjetividad de las estudiantes.

Los conceptos de poder y control, en la teoría de Bernstein y continuadores (Dias Villa, Lopez Jimenez, Ortega, Cox, Daniels, Morais ... ) aunque estan interrelacionados, son analíticamen­te diferentes y operan en niveles distintos. El poder crea límites, establece límites, legitima límites, reproduce límites entre categorías, sean estas agentes, agencias o discursos. El con­cepto de control, tarnbien establece limites pero ya no entre categorías, sino en el nivel de la comunicación. El control nos remite a la interacción, a las relaciones de poder de la interac­ción, a los límites de la interacción.

Se plantearon coma objetivos principales el estudio de las estructuras de poder y control que permean y determinan la relaciones en el salon de clase y, a su vez, el impacto que tienen dichas relaciones en la construcción de subjetividades o identidades profesionales.

La Asociación Colombiana de Universidades, comprometida con el mejora­miento de la calidad de la educación superior, considera el tema de la lecto- escritura como uno de los más urgentes y relevantes. En efecto en educación superior, la lectura y la escritura no se pueden separar de asuntos tan sensibles como la del abandono, el rendimiento académico, el fortalecimiento de la in­vestigación, la producción de conocimiento y el desarrollo de competencias laborales, entre otros, que representan, hoy por hoy, criterios básicos para los procesos de acreditación.

Las investigaciones recientes en este campo han mostrado que los diversos saberes requieren de diferentes prácticas lectoras y escritúrales, las cuales, a su vez, precisan de procesos formativos específicos. Así, se viene reconociendo cada vez más que tales procesos no son exitosos cuando, como ocurre tradi­cionalmente, sólo se los deja a cargo de los profesores de lengua y comunica­ción. Las dificultades que la universidad enfrenta en este terreno, no puede ser resultados sin una política que comprometa a todas las personas implicadas en el formación universitaria.

Breast cancer continues to be a significant public health problem in the world. Early detection is the key for improving breast cancer prognosis. Mammography has been one of the most reliable methods for early detection of breast carcinomas. However, it is difficult for radiologists to provide both accurate and uniform evaluation for the enormous mammograms generated in widespread screening. Breast cancer computer aided diagnosis (CAD) systems can provide such help and they are important and necessary for breast cancer control. Micro calcifications and masses are the two most important indicators of malignancy, and their automated detection is very valuable for early breast cancer diagnosis. Since masses are often indistinguishable from the surrounding parenchymal, automated mass detection and classification is even more challenging. This research presents algorithms for building a classification system or CAD, especially to obtain the different characteristics of mass and micro calcification using association technique based on classification. Starting with an individual-speciﬁc deformable of 3D breast model, this modelling framework will be useful for tracking visible tumors between mammogram images, as well as for registering breast images taken from diﬀerent imaging modalities. From the results, the classifier developed able to perform well by successfully classifying the cancer and non-cancer (normal) images with the accuracy of 97%. Apart from that, by applying color map to the final results of segmentation provides a more interesting display of information and gives more direction to the purpose of image processing, which distinguishes between cancerous and non-cancerous tissues.

Conflicto armado, palma de aceite y bosque en Colombia: una exploración de relaciones espaciales
Authors: Salazar Arcila Luis Felipe
Published: November 2019

Las FARC-EP, uno de los más contundentes grupos armados al margen de la ley, ejercieron presencia histórica en aproximadamente el 45% del área continental de Colombia, librando un conflicto armado por más de 50 años. Desde la perspectiva del “´Posacuerdo de Paz” y la territorialidad, el presente ejercicio tiene como propósito principal explorar y analizar las posibles relaciones espaciales existentes entre tres fuentes de información geográfica nacional: Presencia histórica de las FARC-EP en los municipios de Colombia; Cobertura de monocultivo de palma de aceite y Cobertura de “bosque no bosque”; e indagar cómo dichas interacciones podrían afectar el futuro ambiental de Colombia, así como la posible implicación en la conservación y uso adecuado de los recursos naturales. La observación se efectúa nivel nacional y en tres regiones específicas de estudio: Orinoquía, Norte y Nariño. La observación se soporta en el empleo de herramientas de Sistemas de Información Geográfica.

Objetivo: Identificar o grau de conhecimento das gestantes em um munícipio do estado de Minas Gerais (MG) quanto aos tipos e os fatores que as influenciam na escolha da via de parto. Métodos: Este estudo tem uma abordagem descritiva, exploratória de natureza quanti-qualitativa, realizado a partir de entrevista semi-estruturadas em encontros na unidade básica de saúde. Participaram da pesquisa 39 gestantes assíduas às consultas de pré-natal, que concordaram em assinar o termo de consentimento de livre esclarecido. Resultados: Por meio da pesquisa, concluímos que as gestantes participantes apresentam algum tipo de conhecimento acerca dos tipos de parto e que fatores como: recuperação pós-parto, o medo da dor e de surgirem complicações durante o parto, crises hipertensivas, desejo de realizar esterilização cirúrgica, opiniões de familiares e profissionais da saúde, são os principais responsáveis por influenciarem a gestante na escolha da via de parto. Conclusão: Em síntese há uma parcialidade quanto a escolha da via de parto, algumas das gestantes levantam a questão de menor risco durante o parto normal, outras relataram uma preocupação quanto danos na pelve, períneo, uretra e ânus, está é uma preocupação recorrente por esta razão acreditamos que o parto cesáreo seja mais bem aceito pelas gestantes.
Gastroretentive Microspheres: An Innovative Approach for Prolonging Gastric Residence

Published: November 2019

Gastro-retentive drug delivery systems (GRDDS) like gastro-retentive microspheres have gained immense popularity in the field of oral drug delivery. It is a widely employed approach to retain the dosage form in the stomach for an extended period of time and release the drug slowly that can address many challenges associated with conventional oral delivery, including poor bioavailability. Different innovative approaches like magnetic field assisted gastro-retention, swelling systems, mucoadhesion techniques, floating systems with or without effervescence are being applied to fabricate gastroretentive microspheres. Apart from in-vitro characterization, successful gastro-retentive microspheres development demands well designed in-vivo study to establish enhanced gastro-retention and prolonged drug release. Gama scintigraphy and MRI are popular techniques to evaluate in-vivo gastric residence time. However, checking of their overall in-vivo efficacy still remains a major challenge for this kind of dosage form, especially in small animals like mice or rat. Reported in-vivo studies with beagle dogs, rabbits, and human subjects are only a handful in spite of a large number of encouraging in-vitro results. In spite of the many advantages, high subject variations in gastrointestinal physiological condition, effect of food, and variable rate of gastric emptying time are the challenges that limit the availability of gastro-retentive microspheres in the market.

In this study, easy and robust RP-HPLC method was developed and validated to determine acceptable residual limit of citalopram hydrobromide for cleaning procedures. The United States, Food and Drug Administration has mentioned that the acceptable limit for residues present in the equipment during processing or manufacturing should be based on logical criteria. In present study, acceptable residual limit for cleaning procedure of citalopram hydrobromide was calculated by using three approaches including therapeutic dose method, 10 ppm criteria and visual limit of inspection. The value by erapeutic dose approach was less among three calculated values hence, selected as acceptable residual limit (10.66 µg/25 cm2 ) for analytical method development and validation for the detection of this drug residues on the surfaces of manufacturing equipment. A RP-HPLC assay method was developed using C18 column and mobile phase containing mixture of methanol and ammonium acetate buffer (pH4.6) (70:30) with flow rate of 1.6 ml/min. System suitability parameters like theoretical plates and tailing factor were calculated for the validation of the developed method as per ICH Q2B guidelines. After analyzing recovery study data, it was found that stainless steel plate has minimum recovery (88.87%) and pre-analyzed tablet solution has maximum recovery (99.29%)
