Authors: Maslennikov Aleksandr A. , Demidova Svetlana A. , Svyatkina Marina D. , Novikova Olga N. , Erunova Nataliya V. , Kucherskoy Semen A. , Zemlyanoj Aleksandr V.
Published: August 2024

Introduction. In the process of production, storage and application of a new environmentally friendly hydrocarbon fuel – naphthyl, intended for use in the Soyuz and Angara family of launch vehicles, its ingress into the water of reservoirs is not excluded, which determines the mandatory assessment of the danger of its single contamination of this environmental object.
Material and methods. A sample of naphthyl rocket fuel (RG–1), CAS number 94114-58-6, with a specific density of d420 = 830.0 kg/m3 was used as an object of research. The brutta formula of naphthyl is CI2,79H24,52.
It is a colorless (or slightly yellowish) oily liquid with a characteristic odor of petroleum products.
It is practically insoluble in water.
Results. It was found that the ecotoxicant content in water in concentration 10.0 mg/l led to a change in its transparency, the appearance of color and odor of petroleum products. The indicated naphthyl concentration is determined as a threshold for organoleptic harmfulness. During the study of the effect of the toxicant on the general sanitary regime of reservoirs, in the absence of changes in the indicators of biochemical oxygen consumption, its negative effect on nitrification processes and saprophytic microflora was revealed.
The threshold concentration of the substance according to the general sanitary indicator of harmfulness is 5.0 mg/l. With a single intragastric injection to male rats, the tested xenobiotic caused a significant increase in heart rate and a change in a number of hematological parameters. The threshold for a single general toxic effect of naphthyl is 20.0 g/kg.
Limitations. The identified features of naphthyl behavior must be taken into account when it once pollutes the water of reservoirs (in case of an emergency). However, the data obtained are insufficient to substantiate the hygienic standard of the compound in the water of water bodies.
Conclusion. The results of the experiments indicate that a single ingress of naphthyl into the water represents an ecological and toxicological hazard, registered according to three basic signs of harmfulness, which are taken into account when justifying its maximum permissible concentration in the water of reservoirs.
Development and validation of an immunochromatographic test system for the determination of microcystins in water and tissues of freshwater fish
Authors: Singov Evgeny K. , Morenkov Оleg S. , Sipin Sergey V. , Vrublevskaya Veronika V.
Published: August 2024

Introduction. Certain genera of cyanobacteria produce hepatotoxins associated with the group of microcystins (MCs). During periods of water blooms, cases of poisoning and death of fish, birds, wild and domestic animals, as well as humans, associated with the consumption of water, blue-green algae or other aquatic organisms contaminated with MC, have been recorded. Timely detection of MC in water reservoirs, in drinking water and in hydrobionts is necessary for carrying out preventive measures to prevent poisoning of people and animals with microcystins.
Results. An immunochromatographic test system has been developed for the determination of MC in drinking water, fresh water and fish tissues. When using the visual method of recording the results, the detection limit of the test system for determining MC-LR was no more than 0.1 ng/ml for drinking water and no more than 0.5 ng/ml for river and lake water, which is lower than maximum allowable concentration for MC-LR established by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Rospotrebnadzor. When analyzing fish tissues, the detection limit of the test system was no more than 3 ng/g tissue. The use of an instrumental method for recording results led to a 2–3-fold decrease in the minimum detectable concentration of MC-LR. The test system allowed semi-quantitative determination of MC content in water and fish tissues and detected different types of MC and the structurally similar hepatotoxin nodularin with varying efficiency.
Limitations. The test system does not allow the detection of some types of MC, but it identifies the most widespread and dangerous types, including MC-LR.
Conclusion. The developed test system can be used to monitor the content of MC in drinking water, water from open reservoirs and in fish tissues.

Authors:   University of South Africa - UNISA, Makoni Patricia , Kajumbula Richard ,   University of South Africa - UNISA
Published: August 2024

This study aimed to establish the nexus between CEO power and bank risk. Previous studies on how CEO power affects risk-taking have produced mixed results. Some studies show that CEO power reduces risk, while others show the reverse. This lack of conclusive findings motivated this study. This study used secondary data from a sample of 14 commercial banks in Uganda covering a period from 2010 to 2020. System GMM was used to establish the relationship between variables, while ARDL was used to infer causality. Findings show that commercial banks with powerful CEOs have lower risk. Such powerful CEOs have prestige power, are internally hired, have ownership, and have served for more than 4 years up to 7 years, and hence possess expert power. We further found a long-run positive relationship between previous bank risk and current bank risk, as well as a causal relationship between CEO power and bank risk. In case there is a need to reduce bank risk in Uganda, making adjustments in CEO power will help. It may also be necessary for persistent adjustment and implementation of decisions and policy actions, if bank risk is to be minimized

Authors: Phillis Dedans
Published: August 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the effects of recreational therapy on anxiety levels in patients with chronic illness.
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study indicated that engaging in recreational activities, such as art, music, and physical exercise, can significantly alleviate anxiety symptoms. These activities provide a distraction from pain and discomfort, enhance mood, and promote relaxation. For instance, studies have demonstrated that music therapy can lead to decreased levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, and increased production of endorphins, which are natural mood elevators. Similarly, physical activities like yoga and tai chi help in reducing tension and improving overall mental health by fostering a sense of physical well-being and empowerment. Art therapy, through creative expression, allows patients to process their emotions and experiences, leading to reduced feelings of anxiety and depression. Overall, recreational therapy offers a holistic approach to managing anxiety in chronically ill patients, contributing to improved quality of life and better mental health outcomes.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Cognitive-behavioral theory, biopsychosocial model and flow theory may be used to anchor future studies on assessing the effects of recreational therapy on anxiety levels in patients with chronic illness. Practitioners should consider combining different types of recreational therapies to maximize therapeutic benefits. Policymakers should recognize the value of recreational therapy and integrate it into national healthcare guidelines and policies. This integration can promote the widespread adoption of these therapies in various healthcare settings, ensuring that patients with chronic illnesses have access to comprehensive care options.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the effect of electrolyte concentration on the efficiency of electrochemical cells in India.
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study found that higher electrolyte concentrations generally enhance the conductivity of the cell, which improves the overall cell efficiency by facilitating the movement of ions between the electrodes. This results in a reduction in internal resistance, leading to a more efficient electrochemical reaction. Conversely, low electrolyte concentrations can hinder ion transport, increasing resistance and decreasing the efficiency of the cell. Additionally, optimal electrolyte concentration ensures a stable electrochemical environment, minimizing side reactions and enhancing the durability and performance of the cell. Therefore, maintaining an appropriate electrolyte concentration is crucial for maximizing the efficiency and longevity of electrochemical cells used in various applications, including energy storage and conversion technologies.
Implications to Theory, practice and policy: Nernst equation, butler- Volmer equation and grotthuss mechanism may be used to anchor future studies on assessing the effect of electrolyte concentration on the efficiency of electrochemical cells in India. Based on empirical findings, manufacturers should focus on developing and commercializing electrolyte formulations that are optimized for specific cell types and applications. Policymakers should develop and enforce standards and guidelines for the optimal electrolyte concentrations in different types of electrochemical cells.
Impact of Temperature on the Solubility of Ionic Compounds in Water in Cameroon
Authors: Nwanak Sarah
Published: August 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess impact of temperature on the solubility of ionic compounds in water in Cameroon.
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study found that the solubility of most ionic compounds increases with an increase in temperature. This is because higher temperatures provide more kinetic energy to the ions, helping them to break free from the crystal lattice and dissolve in water. For example, the solubility of salts like potassium nitrate (KNO3) significantly increases as the temperature rises, allowing more of the compound to dissolve. However, this trend is not universal for all ionic compounds. Some, such as calcium sulfate (CaSO4), exhibit a decrease in solubility with rising temperature. This anomaly can be attributed to the exothermic nature of the dissolution process for these compounds, where heat is released when they dissolve. As temperature increases, the equilibrium shifts to favor the solid form, reducing solubility. Therefore, while temperature generally enhances the solubility of ionic compounds in water, specific behaviors can vary depending on the individual compound's dissolution characteristics and thermodynamic properties.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Le Chatelier’s principle, Arrhenius theory of dissociation and solubility product constant (KSP) theory may be used to anchor future studies on assessing impact of temperature on the solubility of ionic compounds in water in Cameroon. Practical applications of temperature-dependent solubility data should be integrated into industrial processes, particularly in fields such as pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, and desalination. Policymakers should consider incorporating temperature-dependent solubility data into environmental regulations, particularly concerning water pollution and waste management.

Published: August 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the role of nanoparticle size in the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants.
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: The study indicated that smaller nanoparticles exhibit a higher surface area-to-volume ratio, providing more active sites for pollutant interaction and adsorption, which enhances the overall degradation process. Additionally, smaller nanoparticles tend to have higher charge carrier mobility and reduced recombination rates of electron-hole pairs, further improving photocatalytic activity. This increased efficiency is critical in environmental applications, as it allows for the effective breakdown of various contaminants, including dyes, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals, at lower catalyst loadings and shorter reaction times. The optimization of nanoparticle size, therefore, plays a crucial role in developing advanced photocatalytic systems for environmental remediation.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Optical absorption theory, surface area and reaction kinetics theory and charge carrier dynamics theory may be used to anchor future studies on assessing the role of nanoparticle size in the photocatalytic degradation of pollutants. Develop robust methodologies for synthesizing nanoparticles with precise control over size distribution. Establish standardized protocols for evaluating the performance and safety of nanoparticle-based photocatalytic materials. This includes setting benchmarks for degradation efficiency, durability, and potential environmental impacts.

Does Uncertainty Drive Herding Behavior in Indonesia Stock Exchange
Authors: Windijarto Windijarto , Komalasari Puput Tri
Published: August 2024

Herding behavior increases along with market risk, corporate uncertainty aggregate uncertainty. This research aims to investigate herding behavior in the Indonesian capital market by considering conditions of uncertainty. There are two uncertainty indicators used in this research, namely stock market volatility and COVID-19. By using daily data from companies listed on the LQ45 index, the research found that herding behavior was not detected when using the basic herding model, but when entering transaction volume variables and lagged dependent variables, we found that there was herding behavior during the 2017-2023 period. Furthermore, by including uncertainty variables, our research found an asymmetry of herding behavior: investors tend to herd when the market experiences high volatility and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Outside of these two periods, we found no empirical evidence of herding behavior in Indonesia. These results strengthen the theoretical framework that high uncertainty triggers herding behavior.

Published: August 2024

Knowledge sharing is one of the positive actions in providing information carried out between individuals in order to share knowledge and improve thoughts and ideas for achieving goals. Government organizations like the Cooperative and SMEs Agency of the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY) require knowledge-sharing activities to enhance the public services they offer. The purpose of this study is to comprehend the antecedents of knowledge sharing, with a specific focus on analyzing how organizational culture influences knowledge sharing through the mediation of intrinsic motivation and job satisfaction. This research is a quantitative study that uses primary data collection with a questionnaire instrument. The census collected data from a number of respondents for the study. We processed the data using regression analysis and the Sobel test. The results showed that organizational culture has a role in strengthening intrinsic motivation and building employee satisfaction but is not significant in its contribution to improving knowledge sharing. Likewise, intrinsic motivation is not a predictor of knowledge sharing, which indicates the existence of other factors that need further research. However, this study reveals confirmation of the mediation relationship in the series of organizational culture, job satisfaction, and knowledge sharing variables.

Published: August 2024

This research aimed to investigate the effect of workload and motivation on employee performance. The study was conducted at The Banjarmasin City Land Office from September to October 2023, with a sample of 40 employees selected using a non-probability sampling technique with a purposive sampling or judgment sampling type. The data analysis method used is Structure Equation Modeling (SEM) and the SmartPLS (Partial Least Square) program to process data and carry out analysis of the data. The results showed that workload (X1) has a negative and significant influence on performance (Y), with an Original Sample value of -0.533 and P Values of 0.005. This means that the greater the workload, the lower the employee's performance. Meanwhile, motivation (X2) has a positive and significant influence on performance (Y), with an Original Sample value of 0.618 and P Values of 0.000. This means that the higher the employee's motivation, the higher their performance. The research supports Koesomowidjojo’s (2017) theory that workloads that are too high can reduce productivity and reduce employee performance, and also supports research by Wolor et al. (2019), and Paais & Pattiruhu (2020) who found that motivation has a positive influence on performance. Motivation is needed in organizations to encourage employees to achieve organizational goals. Motivation can come from within, so organizational leaders must create situations where employees can motivate themselves.
Is Work Engagement More Important than Job Satisfaction to Increase Employee Synergy and Performance? Studies at State-Owned Companies in Indonesian
Authors: Hadiyat Yayan , Herman Herman , Ramly Amir T , Handrianto Budi
Published: August 2024

This study aims to investigate how job attitudes, specifically employee satisfaction and engagement, affect both synergy and performance among employees. The research was conducted at a state-owned enterprise (BUMN) in Jakarta, which manages ports across Indonesia and operates in four regional areas nationwide. The study utilized a quantitative design with a survey method, and sampling was performed through a census, taking all workers as the unit of analysis with a response rate of 91.3% (6,378 respondents out of 6,986 workers). Both job attitude components simultaneously predict employee synergy by 66% and performance by 65%. Employee engagement had a higher path coefficient in predicting both employee synergy and performance compared to employee satisfaction. This supports the view that employee engagement more significantly represents an individual’s psychological aspects towards their organization and the tasks associated with their work roles, indicating that high employee engagement reflects a robust psychological attachment—physical, cognitive, and emotional—and plays a more significant role in influencing performance. Employee satisfaction and engagement are two crucial job attitude components for workers and should continue to be a focus in the state-owned company to maintain their attachment to the organization and enhance their contribution and optimal performance. The findings of this research reinforce the viewpoint that differentiates the two; employee engagement is more related to the psychological aspects and the nature of the relationship between workers and the organization, whereas employee satisfaction pertains to the positive-negative affective process, or satisfaction-dissatisfaction regarding what is received from the company, both in terms of rewards and recognition, whether intrinsic or extrinsic.

This paper analyses the moves and linguistic features in valedictory speeches of ten graduating students of some Colleges of Education in the Western and Central Regions of Ghana. Ten speeches ranging from 2013 to 2019 were selected from Holy Child College of Education, Takoradi, Our Lady of Apostle College of Education, Cape Coast and Foso College of Education, Fosu. Valedictory speech is important to graduating students of tertiary institutions and some high schools; as a specific form of genre, it shares the characteristics of both oral and written genre in the context of English for specific purposes which is geared towards English for Academic Purposes (EAP). The exemplars were analysed according to move patterns and their textual space as well as its linguistic features. This study adapted mix method design. Interview, focus group discussions and questionnaires were the instruments used. The study revealed that, communicative elements in the valedictory speech are very important to the graduating students and their message they intend to send to the audience. It also identified that it brings out a picture of issues that had contributed to the success of the graduating students and the end result of they being awarded their diplomas or degree. It was clearly established of linguistic features of valedictory speeches. For the analysis of moves and linguistic features in valedictory speeches, one relevant theory is Swales’ Genre Analysis. This theory is instrumental in understanding the structure (moves) and language use (linguistic features) in specific types of discourse like valedictory speeches. This investigation was underpinned by genre analysis theory foundered by Swales, J. (1990). Swales’, Genre Analysis focuses on how different types of texts (genres) are structured to achieve particular communicative purposes. The theory is especially useful in understanding academic and professional communication, as it provides a framework for analyzing the “moves” within a text—segments of discourse that serve specific functions. It was recommended that linguistic features within these moves should realize the functions and contribute to the overall purpose of the genre. Again, framework can be applied to valedictory speeches to analyze the rhetorical structure and the specific linguistic choices made to achieve the communicative goals of the speech.
