Authors: Dinh Viet Chien , Nguyen Thi Anh Huong ,   National Institute for Food Control, Hanoi, Vietnam,   Vietnam National University, Hanoi, Vietnam
Published: October 2023

Benzyldimethyloctylammonium chloride (BAC-C8) and Benzyldimethyldodecyl ammonium chloride (BAC-C12) are bactericidal surfactants which widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as anti-microbial disinfectants in skin antiseptic solution. According to current international regulations, the standard of finished antiseptic solution must have regulations on the limit of preservatives when used in the formulation. In this study, simultaneous determination of BAC-C8 and BAC-C12 was performed by capillary electrophoresis using capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (CE-C4D) with analytical conditions including: fused silica capillary (50 µm ID.) with effective length of 40 cm, background electrolyte solution of 100 mM acetic acid (Ace) added 30% acetonitril (ACN); hydrodynamic sample injection at height of 10 cm in 20 s; separation voltage of +15 kV. The detection limit of BAC-C8 and BAC-C12 were 1.5 mg/L and 3.5 mg/L, respectively. This method has been applied to determine the content of BAC-C8 and BACC12 in the disinfectant solution samples.
Initial research on the application of the liquid chromatography - quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF-MS) method for monitoring pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables
Authors: Dinh Dang Huy ,   Food Safety and Toxicology Laboratory, Vinmec Hi-Tech Center, Ha Noi, Viet Nam
Published: October 2023

Currently, there are thousands of plant protection chemicals being allowed for use in agriculture. Abuse or improper use of pesticides lead to increase residues in products, exceeding the maximum residue limit according to the regulations. Therefore, the need for developing methods, which can monitor, detect, and identify many pesticides simultaneously is necessary. The liquid chromatography quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF-MS) method has advantage of being able to simultaneously quantify and screen many compounds at once, are being a trend in analytical techniques for analyzing and screening pesticide residues in foods. In this study, the LC-QTOF-MS method was used to quantify 186 pesticides in fruit and vegetable samples. The limit of detection (LOD) for all compounds is 3.0 µg/kg. The recovery is in the ranged of 74.4 -118%, relative standard deviation (RSD) <20%. At the same time, the method was initial researched for nontarget screening by reprocessing previously acquired data without re-injection of the samples. The list of pesticides can be screening, which are up to 500 chemicals, by comparison results with the available high resolution mass spectral library. The screening detection limit of the method (SDL) is 100 µg/kg. The method has been applied to quantify 186 pesticides, and nontarget screening analyse in 160 fruit and vegetable samples in the first 06 months of 2023.

Síndrome del histiocito azul marino en médula ósea secundario a nutrición parenteral total. Reporte de un caso.
Authors: Fernández D , Maymó D , Alfonso G
Published: October 2023

El histiocito azul marino se describió por primera vez en 1947 en un aspirado esplénico(1). Se trata de macrófagos cargados de gránulos de fosfolípidos que se tiñen de azul marino con la tinción de May- Grünwald-Giemsa. Estos gránulos resultan de acumulación lisosomal de lípidos oxidados no digeribles o material de lipoproteínas(2). Pueden presentarse en una amplia variedad de condiciones hematológicas y en diferentes trastornos del metabolismo, como el síndrome de Niemann-Pick o la enfermedad de Gaucher(3,4). El síndrome del histiocito azul marino cursa con hepatoesplenomegalia y/o pancitopenia por acumulación de histiocitos azules en médula ósea y/o hígado(4). Corresponde a una entidad poco frecuente. Aquí presentamos el reporte de un caso asociado a nutrición parenteral.

Belumosudil: una nueva alternativa en el tratamiento de la enfermedad injerto versus huésped crónica
Authors: Castellanos L , Basquiera AL
Published: October 2023

La enfermedad de injerto contra huésped crónica (EICHc) es un trastorno inflamatorio y fibroesclerosante inmunomediado que se caracteriza por daño tisular y afectación de órganos multisistémico(1). Es la principal causa de morbilidad, mortalidad tardía sin recaída y deterioro de la calidad de vida después de un trasplante alogénico de células hematopoyéticas (aloTCH)(1-4). La EICHc afecta hasta el 50 % de todos los receptores de aloTCH(2). La fisiopatología involucra una desregulación de células T y B con una reparación deficiente de los tejidos con la consecuente reacción fibrótica(1). El tratamiento estándar de primera línea en las formas moderadas y severas se basa en esteroides, con o sin la asociación de inhibidores de calcineurina o sirolimus(5). Hasta 70% de los pacientes requerirán líneas adicionales de tratamiento(6). Actualmente se encuentran aprobados como tratamientos de segunda línea ruxolitinib (inhibidor selectivo del JAK1 y JAK2, basado en estudio clínico fase 3) e ibrutinib (inhibidor BTK, basado en estudio fase 2)(7). El 16 de julio de 2021, la Administración de Drogas y Alimentos (FDA) aprobó el belumosudil, para pacientes adultos y pediátricos mayores de 112 años o más con EICHc después del fracaso de al menos dos líneas previas de terapia sistémica(7). El belumosudil es un inhibidor selectivo de ROCK2 (del inglés Rho-associated coiled-coil containing kinase2). ROCK2 es una serina/treonina quinasa que regula múltiples funciones celulares, incluida la organización del citoesqueleto, la migración celular, y transcripción de genes(8-10).

As constantes transformações no contexto mercadológico revelam a importância de abordagens comerciais eficazes que correspondam às novas demandas. Nesse prisma, o marketing sensorial é destacado como uma estratégia de negócio promissora, uma vez que se fundamenta nos órgãos dos sentidos e nas subjetividades da mente humana. Frente a uma sondagem teórica, foram observados aspectos de afinidade entre o marketing sensorial e o secretariado executivo, despertando o interesse em explorar mais a fundo a sinergia entre os domínios. Definiu-se como objetivo geral identificar as percepções dos profissionais de secretariado executivo a respeito do marketing sensorial e como o incorporam em seus cotidianos de trabalho. O estudo utiliza a metodologia qualitativa, descritiva e explicativa, conduzindo uma pesquisa de campo com seis profissionais graduados no curso de bacharel em secretariado executivo. Os resultados indicam que o marketing sensorial está integrado às rotinas de trabalho dos secretários diante de estratégias que visam oferecer experiências satisfatórias e envolventes aos consumidores. Os secretários consideram o marketing sensorial como elementar para o sucesso de uma marca. No entanto, os conceitos relativos a esse segmento ainda são introdutórios nas realidades dos profissionais. O marketing sensorial e o secretariado executivo manifestam panoramas de equivalências, oportunizando o fortalecimento profissional dos secretários mediante a interseção de conhecimentos entre as duas áreas.

Ecological and biological bases of creating source material of sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) on adaptability and productivity for further breeding
Authors: Moskalets Tetiana , Rozhko Ivanna , Hulko Bohdan , Datsko Tetiana , Rozhko Ihor
Published: October 2023

The research relevance is determined by the constant striving to improve and enhance sea buckthorn genotypes by using different genetic resources and breeding methods to achieve better adaptability, higher productivity, and fruit quality. The research aims to expand the genetic diversity of sea buckthorn, which combines high productivity and quality for further breeding. Phenology, morphological studies, and evaluation of breeding material for economically valuable traits were carried out according to the methodology for the examination of plant varieties, and molecular genetic studies – according to the polymerase chain reaction method, which is based on multiple copies of a specific DNA region. The formative process in sea buckthorn breeding for adaptability, productivity and quality was expanded by using the gene pool of related forms, which is one of the ways to solve the problems of creating source material for further breeding and is the basis of the research, which established a wide range of formative process by morphological traits and biological properties as a result of the hybridisation of biotypes, which allowed to select valuable hybrids for a set of breeding and, in particular, new forms of Soborna and Adaptyvna Improved were identified, characterised by high winter and drought resistance, productivity and fruit quality, absence of thorns and dry fruit separation, and submitted to the State Variety Testing. The obtained genotypes of sea buckthorn plants combine resistance to high and low environmental temperatures with a complex of other economic traits: disease resistance, low or no thorniness, fruit quality and their suitability for processing and production of products for healthy nutrition. The practical value of the study is based on the fact that the results of the research expand the information on the use of sea buckthorn adaptability, productivity, and quality in breeding, selected and studied in the natural and fallow ecosystems of Polissia and Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. As a result of the study, the best samples were selected and included in the Genetic Bank of Plants of Ukraine as material with valuable horticultural traits and involved in breeding work at the Institute of Horticulture of the National Academy of Agrarian Sciences of Ukraine

अंतरिक्ष विज्ञान में इंसान के सफलता से एक बात तो स्पष्ट हो गई है की इंसान वो सब कुछ कर सकता है, जो ना कभी किसी ने सोचा हो, ना कभी किसी ने देखा हो, ना कभी किसी ने किया हो ओर ना कभी किसी ने महसूस किया हो, वो सब कुछ जिसको हम सोचते हैं वो सब कुछ हम कर सकते हैं। भारतीय अंतरिक्ष कार्यक्रम को मुख्य रूप से भारतीय अंतरिक्ष अनुसंधान संगठन (ISRO) के तहत निष्पादित किया जाता है। चंद्रयान-1, चंद्रमा के लिए भारत का पहला मिशन, 22 अक्टूबर 2008 को सतीश धवन अंतरिक्ष केंद्र, श्रीहरिकोटा से सफलतापूर्वक लॉन्च किया गया था। चंद्रयान-1 ने चंद्र सतह पर हाइड्रॉक्सिल और पानी के अणुओं की उपस्थिति और स्थायी सूर्य छाया क्षेत्र के क्रेटर के आधार में उप-सतह जल-बर्फ जमा की खोज की। चंद्रयान-3 का 23 अगस्त 2023 को चंद्र के दक्षिणी ध्रुव के पास 70 डिग्री अक्षांश पर उतरने से चंद्रमा के दक्षिणी ध्रुव पर उतरने वाला भारत विश्व का पहला देश बन गया है। चंद्रयान-3 मं एक लैंडर मॉड्यूल, प्रोपल्शन मॉड्यूल और एक रोवर शामिल है। विक्रम लैंडर पर लगे चेस्ट (ChaSTE) पेलोड से पता चलता हे की चंद्रमा की सतह का तापमान 50 डिग्री सेल्सियस है, गहराई में जाने पर तापमान तेजी से गिरता है। रोवर पर मौजूद अल्फा पार्टिकल एक्स-रे स्पेक्ट्रोमीटर (ए.पी.एक्स.एस.) ने एल्यूमीनियम, सिलिकॉन, कैल्शियम, आयरन जैसे प्रमुख अपेक्षित तत्वों के अलावा, सल्फर समेत दिलचस्प सूक्ष्म तत्वों की उपस्थिति की खोज की है। प्रारंभिक मूल्यांकन से संकेत मिलता है कि चंद्र सतह को घेरने वाला प्लाज्मा अपेक्षाकृत विरल है।
Green industry experts’ consensus about wildlife-friendly landscape maintenance: Delphi-informed implications for agricultural and extension educators
Authors: Kalauni Dharmendra , Warner Laura A. , Silvert Colby J. , Gusto Cody , Diaz John M. , Daniels Jaret
Published: October 2023

This study was designed to understand the current state of wildlife-friendly landscape maintenance practices and the associated barriers and motivations among Florida green industry professionals. A Delphi technique to achieve consensus, along with descriptive survey questions, was used to facilitate feedback from Florida-based green industry professionals and Extension professionals. The expert panel identified 55 wildlife-friendly landscape activities, 25 barrier items, and 25 motivator items. Descriptive findings showed that green industry professionals believe, on average, Florida residents request wildlife-friendly maintenance services less frequently than wildlife-friendly landscape services are offered by Florida green industry professionals. Consensus findings demonstrated the barriers with the greatest agreement were a lack of public awareness about wildlife-friendly landscaping, its ecological and environmental benefits, professional focus on profit, homeowner association (HOA) regulations, and demand for formal landscape aesthetics. Consensus findings also revealed Florida green industry’s major motivators were clients’ demand for native, Florida-Friendly plants and wildlife-supporting landscapes, the desire to promote the company as wildlife-friendly, and public interest in native and Florida-Friendly Landscaping. Extension professionals, along with policymakers, educators, and program planners should reduce the identified barriers and expand on the motivators to encourage green industry professionals to engage in landscape maintenance activities that support wildlife.
Technical agriculture skills teachers need to teach courses in the animal systems pathway
Authors: Wells Trent , Solomonson Jay , Hainline Mark , Rank Bryan , Wilson Matthew , Rinker Skyler , Chumbley Steven
Published: October 2023

Fundamentally, agricultural teacher education programs and their faculty are tasked with preparing competent teachers capable of teaching students enrolled in public schools. As part of their design, an important facet of these programs is ensuring pre-service teachers are ready to provide educational opportunities in aspects of school-based agricultural education (SBAE), including teaching technical agriculture skills to students. We used a three-round Delphi technique to identify the technical agriculture skills SBAE teachers in Illinois and Iowa need to effectively teach courses in the Animal Systems pathway within the broader Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources (AFNR) Career Cluster. Thirty-four SBAE teachers who were nominated by state-level SBAE leaders and other SBAE teachers in their states contributed data for our study. Twenty-two teachers participated in all three rounds. In total, we identified 35 technical agriculture skill items. To help ensure teachers are competent and prepared to teach courses in the Animal Systems pathway, we outline several approaches agricultural teacher educators should contemplate: (1) facilitating opportunities to foster technical agriculture skill development within agricultural teacher education programs, (2) collaborating with agricultural faculty who teach technical agriculture courses to pre-service teachers, and (3) using our list of 35 skills to facilitate future scholarly investigation on the topic. While not generalizable beyond the SBAE teachers in these two states, we do believe our findings have value for SBAE stakeholders. To overcome the limitation of generalizability and to delve deeper into teachers’ technical agriculture skill needs, we suggest that our study be replicated in other states.
Grower experience affects business education needs for a profitable specialty crop farm operation in the central United States
Authors: Megan C. McManus  , Cary L. Rivard  , Londa Nwadike  , Candice A. Shoemaker
Published: October 2023

Beginning and small-scale growers face significant challenges to maintain their economic sustainability, including maintaining a sufficient level of income. Despite this growing problem, there is little information currently available on what kind of education and/or skills beginning farmers need in order to make their operations profitable. The primary objective of this study was to conduct a needs assessment based on grower feedback to inform business education curricula for beginning small-scale specialty crop producers. We also compared the business skills, resources and obstacles that experienced and beginning small-scale specialty crop farmers viewed as necessary to be successful. A mixed-methods design was conducted in Kansas and Missouri. Electronic survey (n=106) results suggested that farmers place high emphasis on all standard business education curricula. However, perception of resources surrounding these skills were mostly neutral to unsatisfied. Responses differed among the types of farmers, indicating years of experience, status and ownership can impact the perception of skill importance and satisfaction of resources. Furthermore, a series of four asynchronous and synchronous online focus groups (n=24) revealed themes on business skills, obstacles to profitability, resources and desired courses surrounding business education. These findings can help provide educators a better idea of what beginning small-scale specialty crop farmers need for business education. Curricula developed from this data could promote farmer business literacy and ultimately improve farm business viability.
A quantitative analysis of the perceptions of CTE administrators on the integration of employability skills into agricultural aducation
Authors: Norris William , Swortzel Kirk , McCubbins OP
Published: October 2023

Preparing students for the workforce is a foundational pillar of education. This study sought to assess the perceptions of CTE administrators in [State A] and [State B] on the importance of agricultural educators integrating various employability skills education into their instruction. Traditionally, the relationship between CTE administrators and agricultural educators has been viewed as important. An understanding of the perceptions of [State A] and [State B] CTE administrators that offer agricultural education in their district could be beneficial in determining the importance of employability skills integration into agricultural education. This study utilized the Perkins Collaborative Resource Network Employability Skills Framework to develop the instrument. CTE administrators were asked to rate each individual employable skill on a 1 to 5 Likert scale with 1 = Not Important at All and 5 = Extremely Important. Construct scores for each employability skill category was calculated using the individual employability skills ratings. The results found that participating CTE administrators perceived all employability skill categories to be Very Important or Extremely Important. The employability skills most valued by CTE administrators included Critical Thinking Skills, Personal Qualities, and Communication Skills. A Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was used to ascertain any differences in perception held by CTE administrators in [State A] and [State B]. While the analysis did not return any statistically significant results, it could suggest that CTE administrators in [State A] and [State B] agree on which skills are most valuable for agricultural educators to integrate into their instruction.

Leadership Strategies to Closing the Critical Skills Gap: A Review
Authors: Shah Neil
Published: October 2023

Skill is defined as the knowledge, competencies, capabilities, education, and traits required to do a task or job allocated to a certain individual. It is common for a lack of needed information to prevent a firm or organization from achieving its goals. Assigned individuals cannot execute the work, resulting in a skill gap. In this context, identifying talent gaps in various areas is critical. Bridging skills gaps requires effective strategy, but most importantly, it depends on a leader who acquires the proper knowledge and skills to navigate change and lead their team in upskilling and reskilling in ways that suit the organization. The principle objective of this paper is to review the skills gaps in the Canadian automotive industry and successful strategies that automotive business leaders use to fill skills gaps in post-pandemic. The primary focus is reviewing the printed and documented material on skills gaps to find successful strategies. The study findings were derived from a comprehensive review of existing literature. The results indicate that there exists a deficit of skills in both the formal and informal sectors, thereby impeding individuals’ ability to secure employment. Results indicate that Canada, a developed nation with an advanced economy, ought to prioritize improving its human capital through professional development courses and programs. It is recommended that educational institutions conduct further research on the skills gaps to align their training curricula with formal and informal labor market requirements.
Scent-Triggered Cerebral Activity: How Retronasal Olfaction Influences the Food-Reward Feedback System
Authors: Alcocer-Martinez Pamela , Garduno-Diaz Sara D.
Published: October 2023

The flavour of foods and drinks is inﬂuenced by perceptual interactions between genuine taste and odour active compounds that are sensed retronasally. Interdisciplinary teams of plant and sensory experts have identiﬁed speciﬁc flavour changes that inﬂuence overall favour proﬁles. Currently, it is unknown how retronasal sensations might vary with measures of taste phenotype and taste function, and how such differences might inﬂuence liking and intake of certain foods and drinks over others. Given that neural response depends not only on the type of stimuli, but also in large part on the cognitive context, focus and state of the individual, a conclusive determination of the food reward response triggered by retronasal olfaction is warranted.

Incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the criminal justice system has changed how law enforcement and judicial process’s function. This research paper delves into the effects of AI in this particular context, examining its influence on predictive policing, sentencing and parole determinations, surveillance practices, legal representation, and racial and ethnic disparities. By exploring these concerns, this paper aims to shed light on the challenges posed by AI and propose strategies for protecting the rights and well-being of citizens and individuals involved in the criminal justice system. Together, these different aspects create a story that emphasizes the difficulties present in a justice system that, despite progress, is still far from achieving perfection. This story highlights the importance of addressing these challenges to safeguard the well-being and rights of citizens and professionals closely connected to how the system operates.
The “Piano Casa”: Comparative Analysis and Evolution of an Italian Response Tool to the 2008 Economic Crisis
Authors: Ghirardi Andrea , Badiani Barbara , Chebab Ahmed
Published: October 2023

To encourage the recovery of the construction sector after the 2008 economic crisis, the Italian government has introduced different tools, among which stands out the “Piano casa” (literally translatable as House Plan). The “Piano Casa” is a regulatory tool to incentivise the redevelopment of buildings applicable to different types of buildings and use classifications. It provides volumetric bonuses and discounts on charges for the extension or demolition and reconstruction of buildings. The Plan was implemented starting from a State-Regions agreement in 2009 in which the criteria and minimum bonuses indexes were defined. Subsequently, each region had to issue a specific law that could be calibrated according to the peculiarities of the territory. The paper introduces the working principles of the tool and compares the laws of five chosen regions of north-central Italy (Emilia-Romagna et al.), defining how the State-Regions agreement has been declined in each case study. It also followed the evolution of the selected regional laws over time, highlighting the changes in the objectives and those relating to the bonuses granted. The five regions have been chosen because representatives of the different ways of application and outcomes. One of the most important issues that were addressed during the study was the acceptance of the tool by the actors. In general, the Plan was immediately opposed by planners, municipalities and sometimes even by the same regions that had to issue the laws. In case the economic success achieved was considered minimal by the regional government, the Plan was abandoned in a short time. When the “Piano Casa” was judged positively, the regional government converted it from an emergency tool to a structural one. Moreover, some local authorities feared the risk of reducing their control on urban development, giving too much freedom to the market.

Published: October 2023

Background and Objectives: The importance of Staphylococcus aureus as a persistent nosocomial and

community acquired pathogen has become a global health concern. It has a remarkable

ability of evolving mechanisms Antibiogram of Staphylococcus Aureusof resistance to most antimicrobial agents.

The global spread of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) constitutes one

of the most serious contemporary challenges to the treatment of hospital-acquired

infections.

This study was conducted to screen and assess the antibiotic susceptibility pattern

of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical specimens and determining prevalence of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study in which data of all clinical isolates reported as S aureus from 1st November 2019 to 31stOctober 2020 was collected through the electronic medical records system of Shalamar Teaching Hospital. Record of antibiotic susceptibility profile was categorized and analyzed.

Results: A total of 149 S. aureus isolates were reported during the mentioned period. Out of those  isolates 4.7% were sensitive to Ampicillin, 20% to Ciprofloxacin, 51% to Clindamycin, 40% to Cefuroxime, 14% to Erythromycin, 64% to Fusidic Acid, Fosfomycin showed  6.0% sensitivity, Nitrofurantoin 89%, Cefoxitin  45.0%,Gentamicin 72.5%, Linezolid 100%, Co-trimoxazole 33%,Teicoplanin  100%, and Vancomycin 100%.

Conclusions: According to this study Vancomycin, Teicoplanin and Linezolid are still the most

effective drugs that could be chosen for the treatment of S. aureus infections, as all isolates show 100% susceptibility to these antibiotics.
COMPARISON OF PATHOLOGICAL VERSUS SUSPICIOUS CARDIOTOCOGRAPHY IN PREDICTING FETAL DISTRESS IN TERMS OF APGAR SCORE AND UMBILICAL CORD PH AT ONE MINUTE ON CAESAREAN SECTION
Authors: Saadia Ghafoor  , Muhammad Al Fareed Zafar
Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE:  The goal of this study is to see if there is a link between fetal distress as determined by CTG and immediate postpartum umbilical cord blood pH.

METHODS: This comparative analytical study was carried out at as Obstetrics and Gynecology Department, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore. We included 454 antenatal patients in our research which were divided in two groups: group-A (Pathological trace) and group-B (Suspicious trace) i.e. 227 in each group. All infants were observed for neonatal outcome as were admitted in neonatal ICU and APGAR score < 7.

RESULTS:  The mean age of all participating pregnant females was 28.86 ± 6.56 years while the mean age in group-A (Pathological trace) and group-B (Suspicious trace) was 29.34 ± 6.56 years and 28.38± 6.54 years, respectively, with insignificant p-value of 0.119 (i.e > 0.05). In groups A and B, the proportion of babies with an APGAR score of less than 7 was 80.6 % and 5.7 %, respectively, p-value <0.001. The NICU admission rate in group-A (77.1%) was higher than in group-B (9.3%), p-value< 0.001.

CONCLUSION: When compared to suspicious CTG, pathologically trace showed a higher rate of APGAR score less than 7, foetal distress, and admission to neonatal ICU. Moreover, pathological CTG trace has higher predictive accuracy for neonatal outcome such as fetal distress, APGAR score < 7 and admission to NICU.
