Fertilizer and maturity stage affect the nutritional content and quality of tomatoes. This study aimed to obtain the best dosage of amino acid fertilizer on the qualities and shelf life and to determine the effect of the maturity stage on the qualities of Servo tomatoes. The research design used factorial RCBD with 3 blocks as replications. The Servo tomatoes were grown in Wonosobo District and foliar fertilized with 4 levels of amino acid fertilizer, namely 0, 1, 2, and 4 L ha-1 amino acid fertilizer, and 2 L ha-1 comparison fertilizer. Observation of tomato fruit quality was conducted in Horticulture Sublaboratory, UGM at 27,5 °C with relative humidity of 73%. The quality observed was CO2 concentration, visual quality rating, weight loss, fruit firmness, fruit color, TSS, TTA, carotenoids, lycopene, flavonoids, and vitamin C. The observation was terminated when the score of VQR reached 3 as shelf life of tomatoes. Amino acid fertilizer can improve the quality of Servo tomatoes as seen from the parameters of fruit color (a*) and total titrated acid (TTA). In terms of other parameters, the amino acid fertilizer does not affect the quality of Servo tomatoes. The highest value on fruit color (a*) and TTA resulted from 2 L ha-1 of amino acid fertilizer. The maturity stage significantly affects the quality improvement of fruit firmness, weight loss, VQR, CO2 concentration, TTA, total soluble solids, carotenoids, and flavonoids. L ha-1

Published: August 2023

In this study, Corynebacterium kutscheri infection was reported in Sprague-Dawley rats that were stressed due to intense exercise during an experimental study. Weight loss, indifference to the environment, fluffy feathers, and hunched posture were observed in affected rats. The lungs contained numerous, randomly distributed, variably sized, slightly raised, cream-colored caseopurulent foci. There were occasional weak adhesions between the lung lobes and the adjacent costal pleura. Multifocal to coalescing necro-suppurative pneumonia with intralesional scattered large colonies of bacteria was observed histopathologically. Adjacent in the pulmonary parenchyma, interalveolar hypercellularity, type II pneumocyte hyperplasia, fibrinonecrotic vasculitis, and pleuritis were observed. Brown-Breen staining revealed gram-positive cocobacilli in the lesion areas. Furthermore, cardiac lesions in which the atria were more severely affected than the ventricles were identified. This lesion was characterized by thickening of the epicardium with intense infiltrates of macrophages admixed with scattered neutrophils. In severely affected rats, this lesion was also involved to the underlying myocardium. Bacterial culture yielded positive growth for C. kutsheri from the lesioned organ. Polymerase chain reaction was used to confirm the presence of genetic material for C. kutscheri. As a result, it was revealed that Sprague-Dawley rats were infected with C. kutscheri due to intense exercise stress. Periodic controls of C. kutscheri have been suggested in units where experimental animals are raised, both because of its negative effects on the results of the studies to be conducted and because of its zoonotic nature.
Learning With Dogs: An Exploration of Student Outcomes from a Canine-Assisted Experiential Learning Intervention
Authors: Star Rebecca , Taylor Anna , Brent Isabelle
Published: August 2023

Pedagogical researchers are increasingly investigating the impact of experiential learning models, which include hands-on or immersive engagement with content, on student outcomes, as compared to traditional transmission-based learning models. Many previous studies focused on academic competencies and learning outcomes, but the present research investigated non-academic positive outcomes such as self-awareness and wellbeing. Self-awareness and meta-learning can be explained by neural reward pathways that govern motivation; active engagement with activities leads to deeper cognitive processing and higher motivation. Thus, students that are actively engaged and interested in their own learning processes tend to have better learning outcomes. Wellbeing is studied less in this context but is preserved and enhanced through this model of learning. This may be in part because experiential activities often allow for increased peer relationships, which are known to act as a buffer against stress. Combining the literature on experiential learning with the literature on canine-assisted learning provides a particularly interesting area of investigation, as several researchers have attempted to integrate the power of experiential learning with the well-known health and wellbeing benefits derived from interacting with dogs. Students reported increased confidence, wellbeing, and literacy skills after engaging with canine-assisted learning programs. Data from a novel case study conducted at Bader College in 2022-23 supported the link between experiential learning and wellbeing. In this case study, ten students took part in a dog training program over the course of the academic year. The students submitted weekly learning reflections, which highlighted the benefits they derived from the experience in relation to wellbeing, deeper cognitive processing, and meta-learning. The results of this case study suggest the need to take a more holistic approach to student outcomes when contrasting experiential learning models with traditional learning models. The study also raised awareness of the benefits of learning activities involving dogs.

The foundation is the element that receives the forces from the building construction above and channels them to the subsoil, where they function to support the building so that there is no failure of the structure from the bottom. Driven Piles are deep foundations that are precast or finished in the factory to certain specifications. Piles have a long and direct shape with the aim of transmitting structural loads to deeper soil. Bored piles are the foundation for channeling structural loads to great depths. Drilled piles are directly printed in the field (cast in the field) with pre-drilled holes and immediately reinforced in situ. Of these three foundations, they are analyzed and designed in such a way as to be able to support a 2-story house with soil conditions that are former paddy fields. Then, after completing the design, the results are analyzed in terms of price to find out which one is cheaper when using the foundation for a two-story house. The total cost of the pile is Rp. 271,971,237, and for the drilled pile, it is Rp. 286,267,346.

Published: August 2023

Salah satu permasalahan pada operasional sebuah waduk adalah sedimentasi. Kapasitas tampungan waduk dipengaruhi oleh volume sedimen yang masuk ke waduk. Akibat sedimentasi dapat berpengaruh terhadap umur waduk. Untuk menanggulangi permasalahan sedimentasi pada waduk perlu diketahui perkiraan volume sedimen yang masuk ke waduk. Analisis jumlah sedimen yang masuk ke Waduk Jatibarang dilakukan dengan menjumlahkan total sedimen layang dan sedimen dasar. Simulasi dilakukan selama umur rencana waduk yaitu 50 tahun. Sedimen layang dihitung dengan menurunkan persamaan dari data pengukuran debit air dan konsentrasi sedimen. Sedimen dasar dianalisis melalui pendekatan rumus empirik dari Meyer-Petter Muller. Adapun total perkiraan sedimen yang masuk ke waduk selama 50 tahun adalah sebesar 7.629.799,05 m3. Selanjutnya perhitungan sedimen yang mengendap dilakukan dengan metode trap efficiency oleh Brune dan menghasilkan nilai sebesar 6.643.514,71 m3. Dari perhitungan diketahui volume akhir waduk pada tahun ke-50 adalah 13.756.485,29 m3. Sedimen yang mengendap di waduk diperkirakan sebesar 132.870,29 m3 per tahun. Dengan menggunakan data volume dead storage berdasar data teknis waduk 6.800.000 m3, dihitung sisa volume yang ada yaitu sebesar 156.485,29 m3. Perhitungan sisa umur waduk diperoleh dengan membandingkan sisa volume dengan volume sedimen per tahun. Berdasarkan hasil analisa, dapat disimpulkan bahwa rencana umur Waduk Jatibarang adalah 51,1 tahun.

Authors: Keshava Bisma , Usman Wijaya
Published: August 2023

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is a material that can be used to strengthen building structures. This study aims to test two CFRP material types, CFRP-A and CFRP-B, for structural strengthening. CFRP-A is an imported product, while CFRP-B is a locally produced product with more than 40% domestic content. Using local materials in CFRP aims to reduce costs for strengthening building structures. In this study, structural strengthening of beam elements with CFRP-A and B was carried out, where there was an increase in the shear strength of the existing beam structure by 31.147% and 25.154%, respectively. In addition, flexural strength also increased from the existing beam structure, which was 35.431% and 21.515% for CFRP-A and CFRP-B, respectively. From the results of this study, it is clear that CFRP-A is superior for shear and flexural strengthening. However, CFRP-B, a local product with a difference in shear strength increase from CFRP-A of 5.993% and at a relatively cheaper cost, can be considered for shear strengthening. Therefore, CFRP strengthening is an alternative to structural strengthening because it is easy to use, does not require much labor, and does not require many connections.

CFRP-A adalah produk impor yang tersedia di pasar Indonesia, sedangkan CFRP-B merupakan produk yang diproduksi secara lokal dengan tingkat kandungan dalam negeri lebih dari 40%. Penggunaan bahan lokal dalam CFRP bertujuan untuk mengurangi biaya dalam memperkuat struktur bangunan. Dalam penelitian ini, dilakukan perkuatan struktural pada elemen balok dengan CFRP-A dan B, dimana terjadi peningkatan kuat geser dari struktur balok existing masing-masing sebesar 31,147% dan 25,154%. Selain itu, kuat lentur juga meningkat dari struktur balok existing yaitu sebesar 35,431% dan 21,515% untuk CFRP-A dan CFRP-B. Dari hasil penelitian ini terlihat jelas bahwa CFRP-A lebih unggul untuk perkuatan geser dan lentur. Namun CFRP-B yang merupakan produk lokal dengan perbedaan peningkatan geser dari CFRP-A sebesar 5,993% dan dengan biaya yang relatif lebih murah, CFRP-B dapat dipertimbangkan untuk perkuatan geser. Oleh karena itu, secara keseluruhan perkuatan CFRP dapat dipertimbangkan sebagai alternatif perkuatan struktur karena mudah digunakan, tidak membutuhkan tenaga kerja yang banyak, dan tidak memerlukan banyak sambungan.

Exploring the Role of Caspase-3 and IL32 in SARS-CoV-2 Infection among Iraqi Patients
Authors: Abed Alhussien Thaer A. , Fadhil Hula Y.
Published: August 2023

Understanding Caspase-3 (CASP-3) and interleukin-32 (IL32) roles in SARS-CoV-2 infection is critical to linearize the pathogenesis of the virus as well as the resultant disease which may uncover novel therapeutic targets in treating COVID-19 patients. This study aimed to evaluate caspase‐3 (CASP3) and interleukin 32 (IL32) roles and their correlation with the disease severity among patients.  The case-control study (140 patients and 60 healthy controls) was performed with molecular and ELISA assays. CASP3 and IL32 serum levels were determined along with other clinical data of patients. CASP3 levels were classified as significantly higher (p < 0.001), while IL-32 levels were significantly lower in production (p < 0.001) in most critical and severe patients compared with mild-moderate. Additionally, IL 32 production reduced with older age, whereas CASP3 levels elevated with older age compared to younger years. Also, the IL-32 showed a protective factor from the severity of the SARS-CoV-2 progression as a negative correlation with the biomarkers (lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), ferritin and D. dimer) values. Thus, IL-32 appeared as the opposite effect of the CASP3 on the severity of COVID-19 infections. ROC curve analysis indicated that IL32 is a good predictor in providing information about the severity of the disease and host recovery. Whereas CASP3 is associated with progressive disease (cut-off value = 160.7 pg/mL; 5.64 ng/mL respectively). CASP3 and IL32 can possibly provide information about the COVID-19 and could be used as cytokine markers to detect SARS-CoV2 infection severity and determine the most reliable treatment plan. More research is needed on this subject.

Published: August 2023

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a potentially fatal metabolic disorder worldwide, in this COVID-19 era. Long-term allopathic treatment has a variety of side effects, prompting the search for alternative therapies. Oleuropein, the primary bioactive ingredient of Olive Leaf Extract (OLE), has shown noteworthy actions to control T2DM. The present study provides a dynamic study of % improvement in GLUT4 concentration with different doses of metformin (150mg-500mg) in combination with 500mg using a dynamic in silico model developed in Cell Designer 4.4.2, a system biology tool. The results indicated that 300mg of metformin and 500mg of oleuropein is the optimum combination to treat diabetes, ensuring a 2% improvement in GLUT4 concentration and an effective reduction in the dose of the allopathic drug metformin when taken in combination with OLE for the improvement in T2DM. The optimal dose of metformin with oleuropein was obtained successfully using our proposed in silico dynamic model. The research could be used to create an in vivo model to examine the effectiveness of herbal medicine for T2DM.

Published: August 2023

This study aims to overcome the unexpected hydrocarbon non-potentiality detected in the upper Alam El-Bueib (I to IIIE) and justify the hydrocarbon accumulation within Alam El-Bueib (IIIG) at the Emry oil field, also, it is important to highlight the importance of fault seal analysis and the impact of Matruh canyon as a seal. Seismic interpretation and 3D structural framework are carried out using the fault-seal analysis technique for fault no.1 (F1). To assess the fault zone's capacity to be defined as either seal or leakage. Litho-facies juxtaposition diagram (Allan diagram) and Shale Gouge Ratio (SGR) were generated. It is concluded that the possible reason for the dry reservoir of the upper part of Alam El Bueib (Alam El Bueib I to IIIE) due to the leakage of the fault (F1). On the other hand, the seal mechanism for Alam El Bueib IIIG is mainly related to increasing the thickness of the Matruh shale and Matruh Canyon act as a seal rock. SGR for Alam El Bueib IIIG is around 80%, which confirms the presence of the shale in Matruh Canyon is the reason for accumulating the hydrocarbon at Alam El Bueib IIIG.

Changes of Serum Electrolytes and Serum Vitamin C Levels in a Sample of Iraqi patients Infected with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)
Authors: Aburahma Nuha Nihad A. , Kadhim Nada A.
Published: August 2023

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is widespread and involved in the pathogenesis of the majority of stomach and duodenal diseases. Reduced stomach acidity facilitates the initial infection. Electrolytes (sodium, potassium, and chloride) are essential for the production of stomach acid. This study aimed to observe any changes in the levels of serum electrolytes (Na, K, and Cl) and serum vitamin C levels in a sample of Iraqi patients infected with H. Pylori. We studied 30 infected patients with H. Pylori and 30 matched healthy controls. The results revealed that the serum sodium, potassium, and chloride levels were significantly decreased (p = 0.002, 0.003 and 0.0001, respectively) in the patients infected with the H. Pylori group in comparison with those of the healthy controls. Also, vitamin C levels were significantly lower in patients infected with H. Pylori than in the control group (p = 0.001). The present results suggest that these changes may be attributed to or contribute to the infection itself through changes in gastric acidity, and this needs further study.

The Insecta are the most diverse group of animals on the planet. The diversity of Plecoptera aquatic insect order is used as an environmental and ecological indicator. The study of endemic species is important for confirming the national biodiversity and contributing to the determination of national sovereignty. Despite Vietnam being a biodiversity hotspot, the number of known insect species remains limited. As a result, DNA barcoding has been used as a cutting-edge technique to efficiently and rapidly classify biological species. The Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is widely regarded as a standard barcode for animal classification. In this study, we amplified and sequenced a portion of the COI gene fragment with a molecular weight of 710 bp for eight insect species belonging to the order Plecoptera, endemic to Vietnam. When compared to the previously published sequences of other Plecoptera species, the results of COI gene sequence analysis showed a high divergence of at least 9.9%. Molecular analysis of the studied species accurately demonstrated their endemism and morphological similarities. This study contributes to the development of a DNA barcoding database for endemic insects in Vietnam.

The rGO material was modified with CoFe2O4 nanoparticles by a combination of aqueous precipitation at various pH conditions and reduction at high temperatures. The obtained rGO/CoFe2O4 composite has a porous structure with a substantial surface area and pore volume. At pH 10, the synthesized composite has a specific surface area of 270 m2/g, and the CoFe2O4 particle size is approximately 50 nm. As an electrode material in a supercapacitor system, the material has a specific capacitance of 383 F/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g, and after 1000 cycles, its specific capacitance remains at 91.5%. The obtained results demonstrate that the modification of rGO with CoFe2O4 nanoparticles is an advanced and effective approach to enhancing the electrochemical properties of materials.

A clínica dos transtornos do espectro autista e do retardo mental
Authors: Brunelli Lisandre Frazão , Gomes Lina Nunes
Published: August 2023

Os transtornos do espectro do autismo (TEA) referem-se a um grupo de transtornos caracterizados por um espectro compartilhado de prejuízos qualitativos na interação social, associados a comportamentos repetitivos e interesses restritos pronunciados. Os TEAs apresentam uma ampla gama de severidade e prejuízos, sendo frequentemente a causa de deficiência grave, representando um grande problema de saúde pública. Há uma grande heterogeneidade na apresentação fenotípica do TEA, tanto com relação à configuração e severidade dos sintomas comportamentais. A nova edição do DSM trouxe uma nova estrutura de sintomas, e a tríade de sintomas que modela déficits de comunicação separadamente de prejuízos sociais do DSM-IV, que foi substituído por um modelo de dois domínios composto por um domínio relativo a déficit de comunicação social e um segundo relativo a comportamentos/interesses restritos e repetitivos. Além disso, o critério de atraso ou ausência total de desenvolvimento de linguagem expressiva foi eliminado do DSM-5, uma vez que pesquisas mostraram que esta característica não é universal, nem específica de indivíduos com TEA.

Abstract

Game-based learning brings new experiences for students. The trend of using the gamification approach is increasingly in demand at all levels of education, especially for early childhood education. This study aims to identify the most relevant gamification elements in early childhood education through Focus Group Discussion activities with early childhood teachers in Indonesia. The results of the analysis of the findings indicate that teachers have positive perceptions and preferences toward game-based learning in early childhood education. In addition, the results also confirm that there are nine elements of gamification that are suitable to be applied to in the early childhood environment, namely points and rewards, leaderboards, badges, challenges, leveling, progress bar, avatars, currency, and surprises. The results of this study can be used as the basis for further research in relation to developing a prototype of a game-based learning system in early childhood education with a focus on interaction, rewarding, problem solving, and challenges.
