Triptycene Based 3D Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs)—An Emerging Class of 3D Structures
Authors: Borkowska Monika , Mrówczyński Radosław
Published: September 2023

Covalent Organic Frameworks (COFs) are a newly emerged class of porous materials consisting of organic building blocks linked by strong covalent bonds. The physical and chemical properties of COFs, i.e., modularity, porosity, well-developed specific surface area, crystallinity, and chemical-thermal stability, make them a good application material, especially in the aspects of adsorption and gas separation. The organic compositions of their building blocks also render them with biocompatible properties; therefore, they also have potential in biomedical applications. Depending on the symmetry of the building blocks, COF materials form two-dimensional (2D COF) or three-dimensional (3D COF) crystal structures. 3D COF structures have a higher specific surface area, they are much lighter due to their low density, and they have a larger volume than 2D COF crystals, but, unlike the latter, 3D COF crystals are less frequently obtained and studied. Selecting and obtaining suitable building blocks to form a stable 3D COF crystal structure is challenging and therefore of interest to the chemical community. Triptycene, due to its 3D structure, is a versatile building block for the synthesis of 3D COFs. Polymeric materials containing triptycene fragments show good thermal stability parameters and have a very well-developed surface area. They often tend to be characterized by more than one type of porosity and exhibit impressive gas adsorption properties. The introduction of a triptycene backbone into the structure of 3D COFs is a relatively new procedure, the results of which only began to be published in 2020. Triptycene-based 3D COFs show interesting physicochemical properties, i.e., high physical stability and high specific surface area. In addition, they have variable porosities with different pore diameters, capable of adsorbing both gases and large biological molecules. These promising parameters, guaranteed by the addition of a triptycene backbone to the 3D structure of COFs, may create new opportunities for the application of such materials in many industrial and biomedical areas. This review aims to draw attention to the symmetry of the building blocks used for COF synthesis. In particular, we discussed triptycene as a building block for the synthesis of 3D COFs and we present the latest results in this area.
Prediction of Wastewater Treatment Plant Effluent Water Quality Using Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) Models
Authors: Wongburi Praewa , Park Jae K.
Published: September 2023

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has recently emerged as a powerful tool with versatile applications spanning various domains. AI replicates human intelligence processes through machinery and computer systems, finding utility in expert systems, image and speech recognition, machine vision, and natural language processing (NLP). One notable area with limited exploration pertains to using deep learning models, specifically Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), for predicting water quality in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). RNNs are purpose-built for handling sequential data, featuring a feedback mechanism. However, standard RNNs may exhibit limitations in accommodating both short-term and long-term dependencies when addressing intricate time series problems. The solution to this challenge lies in adopting Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) cells, known for their inherent memory management through a ‘forget gate’ mechanism. In general, LSTM architecture demonstrates superior performance. WWTP data represent a historical series influenced by fluctuating environmental conditions. This study employs simple RNNs and LSTM architecture to construct prediction models for effluent parameters, systematically assessing their performance through various training data scenarios and model architectures. The primary objective was to determine the most suitable WWTP dataset model. The study revealed that an epoch setting of 50 and a batch size of 100 yielded the lowest training time and root mean square error (RMSE) values for both RNN and LSTM models. Furthermore, when these models are applied to predict effluent parameters, they exhibit precise RMSE values for all parameters. The study results can be applied to detect potential upsets in WWTP operations.

Published: September 2023

This paper presents an exploratory qualitative Social Life Cycle Analysis (S-LCA) of intensive greenhouse tomato farming in Almeria, Spain, with a specific focus on the social impacts on migrant workers. By setting as a functional unit the production of 10 kg of greenhouse tomato, the study investigates the social dynamics and challenges faced by migrant workers within the industry. The research sheds light on the negative aspects of intensive greenhouse farming for migrants, i.e., labor conditions, health and safety risks, social inequality, and exploitation of migrant labor. Utilizing document analysis, this study contributes to the field of S-LCA by providing a nuanced understanding of the social dimensions surrounding tomato production and migrant workers’ experiences. It emphasizes the need for sustainable practices, improved labor conditions, and ethical considerations to ensure a socially responsible tomato farming industry. The findings have implications for policymakers, industry stakeholders, and consumers, providing insights for informed decision-making and the promotion of socially sustainable agricultural practices that prioritize the well-being and rights of migrant workers in the context of intensive greenhouse farming in Almeria.

The results of fish-breeding works on artificial reproduction of sander — Stizostedion lucioperca in the West Siberian fishery basin, carried out at the fish-breeding and production base of LLC “Rybkhoz”, are presented. In the course of the research, standards for artificial reproduction of sander were worked out, taking into account the indicators approved for other regions of the country by the Order of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation dated 30.01.2015 № 25, “On approval of the Methodology for calculating the volume of extraction (catch) of aquatic biological resources necessary to ensure the conservation of aquatic biological resources and ensure the activities of fish farms, when fishing for aquaculture (fish farming)”, as well as according to literary sources. Such biotechnical indicators have not been developed for the West Siberian Fishery basin before. The process is briefly described, including trapping, transportation and bonitization of producers, their injection, obtaining eggs, fertilization, de-gluing and incubation, rearing of sander juveniles up to 0.5 g. The producers selected for artificial reproduction were divided into three experimental groups by weight categories, which were subsequently kept in the same conditions to obtain reliable results fertilization and incubation of eggs. Recommendations are given on the selection of the most suitable producers of sander with an average weight of 1.7 kg, superior to other weight groups in terms of relative fertility, the percentage of maturation of producers and the percentage of fertilization of eggs obtained from them. Recommendations are also given on the conditions for the rearing of juvenile and its release into the reservoirs of the Novosibirsk region.

Aquaculture is the fastest growing food production industry. The priority direction of freshwater aquaculture is sturgeon breeding. One of the significant stages of the technological cycle of industrial rearing of sturgeons is the maintenance of juveniles during the transition to exogenous nutrition. In industrial fish farming, based on keeping fish under fully controlled aquatic conditions, the use of natural feed is becoming increasingly limited.Despite the use of artificial compound feed, balanced in terms of the main nutrients, only live food serves as a supplier of all biologically active substances, contains proteins that include all essential amino acids, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, enzymes and other vital substances, and also helps to increase the activity of all digestive enzymes, causing the overall activity of the body. The article describes the experience of growing beluga (Huso huso L.) in the pools installed in the RAS “Educational and Scientific Complex of Pilot Aquaculture Production” LLP (Uralsk, Kazakhstan).The results of an experiment to determine the optimal feeding schemes for the sturgeon in the early stages of ontogenesis are presented. It has been established that feeding only аrtemia nauplii and decapsulated аrtemia cysts leads to a mass departure of larvae, and analysis of their stomach contents showed that there was no food in them. To facilitate the transition from feeding live food to artificial food, it is optimal to combine different types of live food with pelleted food. The addition of brine shrimp and bloodworms to the diet of dry granulated food contributes to the greatest increase in the growth rate and survival of larvae and juvenile beluga.

Published: September 2023

Currently, there is a need to find alternative sources of food supplies in the context of sanctions pressure on the Russian Federation, and one of the most effective options is the creation of city farms. Previously, agriculture was carried out only on traditional land, but with the advent of a new direction, such as city farming, agriculture began to undergo changes and gain popularity. City farms are an innovative approach, where beds are grown in several tiers above each other, which allows you to achieve a higher yield compared to traditional agricultural methods. Moreover, artificial intelligence plays an important role in growing plants, which is especially relevant and modern these days. The article analyzes the possibility of increasing food production in cities, thanks to the use of technologies that allow growing vegetables and fruits on a relatively small area. The project examines the advantages and disadvantages of various city farm systems, as well as assessing their effectiveness from a production, economic and environmental point of view. The results of the study allow us to draw conclusions about the advisability of using city farms in the Russian Federation as a factor in increasing food security under sanctions pressure.
Embodied Episodic Memory: a New Case for Causalism?
Authors: Perrin Denis
Published: September 2023

La mémoire incarnée : une nouvelle défense du causalisme ? Une connexion causale appropriée à l’expérience passée qu’il représente est-elle une condition nécessaire pour qu’un état mental soit un souvenir épisodique ? Cette question donne lieu depuis plusieurs années à un débat intense entre la théorie causaliste (CTM) et la théorie simulationniste (STM) du souvenir épisodique. Cet article vise à explorer la perspective ouverte par une approche incarnée de ce type de souvenir, et à évaluer la possibilité d’élaborer grâce à elle une défense du causalisme. Dans une section critique, il soutient que les données empiriques auxquelles STM fait appel sont à la fois incomplètes et non-concluantes, et qu’à y regarder de plus près elles suggèrent même d’adopter une version procéduraliste de CTM. Dans une section constructive, il élabore la notion d’une connexion causale nécessaire en termes de schèmes procéduraux particuliers acquis à l’encodage et opératoires lors de la remémoration, et il appuie cette proposition sur des données empiriques récentes relatives au rôle des mouvements oculaires dans l’imagerie mentale mnésique.

Passivation of hole traps in SiO2/GaN metal-oxide-semiconductor devices by high-density magnesium doping
Authors: Mizobata Hidetoshi , Nozaki Mikito , Kobayashi Takuma , Shimura Takayoshi , Watanabe Heiji
Published: September 2023

A major challenge in GaN-based metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) devices is significant hole trapping near the oxide/GaN interface. In this study, we show that the density and energy level of the hole traps depends crucially on the concentration of magnesium (Mg) dopants in GaN layers. Although the surface potential of a conventional SiO2/p-GaN MOS device is severely pinned by hole trapping, hole accumulation and very low interface state densities below 1011 cm−2 eV−1 are demonstrated for MOS capacitors on heavily Mg-doped GaN epilayers regardless of the degree of dopant activation. These findings indicate the decisive role of Mg atoms in defect passivation.

Recirculated aquaculture systems (RAS) have increased in preponderance in producing fish and shrimp protein. Yet, the economic sustainability of constraining RAS from negatively impacting aquatic ecosystems remains challenging. The future of RAS agriculture will eventually be settled by the relationship between water treatment costs and the impacts on downstream ecosystems. We present a user-friendly simulator of the costs of the treatment of water from RAS farms. This open-source freeware accounts for consumables and energy needed to protect the fish stock from ammonia and nitrite distress, as well as the cost of effluent treatments for specific nitrogen emission targets. This simulation platform uses information inflows about a RAS farm's layout, filters’ performance, toxicity limits, and operational costs. It monitors the budget of water, ammonium, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate, as well as the cumulative costs of management decisions for controlling nitrogen inorganics. In combination with local environmental regulations, such an assessment is essential for making business projections that correspond with acceptable impacts on downstream ecosystems. This simulator helps determine whether a specific RAS farm is both financially sound and environmentally sustainable. Such analyses are key to constraining pollution in the surrounding ecosystems and contributing to the conservation of biodiversity.

Poor regional spatial planning makes the lack of water catchment functions and green open spaces result in environmental problems, particularly in Pekanbaru City, Indonesia. The solution is to utilise the potential of the Siak River and its historical heritage through waterfront city (WFC) management. Structuring a WFC based on a low-carbon concept can solve environmental problems by significantly reducing carbon emissions. This study aims to inventory, map, and evaluate the condition of the existing landscape, analyse public perceptions, and develop recommendations for a WFC with a low-carbon landscape concept. The methods used are historic urban landscape analysis, spatial analysis with land evaluation, community perception, and the preparation of recommendations. The results showed that the management of historical and cultural heritage is still poor. Based on the evaluation of land suitability, the WFC area has the potential to develop tourism, settlement, conservation, and pond areas with varying degrees of suitability according to the function of the area and several limiting factors. Through public perception, the level of enthusiasm of respondents is very high for applying the low-carbon landscape concept. Recommendations are made with the 15-Minute City Strategy through zoning and management programmes, namely tourism, mixed-use, conservation, and cultural preservation.

"This paper reports an updated overview of a comparative study on the medium-term effects of treatment with three consolidants—laboratory-prepared nanolime, commercial nanolime, and commercial acrylic resin—on fresco paint layers replicas affected by lack of cohesion. This is a follow-up to our preliminary data published in 2021. In 2020, paint layers replicas of frescos were prepared in vitro by buon and lime fresco painting techniques with blue smalt and yellow ochre pigments. The samples were treated with the three consolidants and aged at ambient conditions. In 2023, the authors repeated the analysis to assess and compare the three-year effect of the laboratory-prepared nanolime on the paint layers with regard to the commercial nanolime and acrylic resin. The analytical setup comprised photography, scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and colorimetry or spectrophotometry. Monitored parameters were the impact of the treatments on the paint layer morphology and on the colour. After three years, the presence of all products is still detected on the paint surface, where they maintain their effects on the paint layer morphology. Aesthetical changes that occurred immediately after the treatment have maintained a relatively constant value over the course of time. "

A selection of ten oils on canvas belonging to the Municipality of Oporto were analysed using a set of non-invasive techniques: Infrared Reflectography, Ultraviolet Fluorescence Photography, X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry, Fiber Optics Reflectance Spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. The results obtained suggest the use of materials and techniques established in Europe at the turn of the century. The palette is composed of Pb, Zn, Hg, Cr, Cd, Cu, and Co-based pigments, associated with both traditional and recently introduced materials. The great missing element is Ti, associated with Titanium White, available on the market since 1918.
H2 as Clean Energy for Sustainable Future
Authors: Khan Sovann , Soum Veasna
Published: September 2023

H2 is considered a clean fuel used in Fuel cell technology for electricity generation with zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. The demand for H2 gas, typically for fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs), is increasing. However, the current H2 production relies on natural gas and coals related to carbon oxide gas emission, which gives back to global warming concerns. Low-carbon production processes are needed to contribute to the United Nation's sustainable development goals (SDGs). Water-splitting reaction using photocatalysis or electrocatalysis is a promising method for producing H2 from water, which is the earthabundant resource. These H2 production methods based on catalytic technologies require highly active catalyst materials with long-term stability. The development of non-conventional materials with consideration of nanostructure, multijunction, and defect engineering is explored to achieve highly active catalyst materials. This mini-review discusses a basic understanding of H2 production from water-splitting reactions via photocatalysis and electrocatalysis, with outstanding examples of recent works reported. Last part, we provide a short study on the H2 global market and policy in order to conclude the future direction of H2 energy.

In the management of 148 adult patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) of both sexes without special selection (taken into account only absolute contraindications to its performance) there were used domestic basic antiviral drugs - BAD| (short-living interferons (IFN) α, interferon inducers and nucleoside analogues) in parallel with additional antiviral drugs (drug glycyrrhizinic acid or amantadine) and maintenance therapy (stimulators of T-cell immunity and means of correction of side effects). Treatment was carried out in the framework of the developed complex of principles and approaches including in part, the formation of the starting average weekly dose of interferon IFN with accounting of the character of interferon status of the patient, a gradual increase in the average weekly dose of interferon IFN during the course of therapy, the delayed use of nucleoside analogs and others. As a result, against the background of a significant reduction in financial expenses and the aggressiveness of treatment the stable positive therapeutic outcome in the general population of patients occurred in 92.6%, with 87.2% in patients with genotype (G) 1.

Objective. To evaluate the efficiency of allokin-alpha therapy on the level of isolation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and herpes simplex virus type 6 (HHV-6) DNA copy numbers in saliva samples, on the time course of changes in the production of IFN-α and IFN-γ and on that of clinical complaints in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome in the presence of chronic EBV and HHV-6 infections. Subjects and methods. A total of 53 patients (36 women and 17 men) with with chronic fatigue syndrome in the presence of chronic herpesvirus infection were examined; the patients’ their mean age was 34.51 ± 1.74 years. All the patients underwent determination of the amount of EBV and HHV-6 DNA in their saliva samples by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the blood levels of IFN-α and IFN-γ, and the spontaneous and induced production of these cytokines in the blood lymphocyte cultures. All the patients received allokin-alpha therapy with 9 subcutaneous injections of 1.0 mg every other day. The patients were divided into three groups: 1) 26 patients with chronic EBV infection; 2) 18 patients with EBV + HHV-6 co-infection; 3) 9 patients with HHV-6 infection. Results. After allokin-alpha therapy, in Group 1 EBV DNA was PCR negative in 57.69% of patients; in Group 3, that was positive in all patients. In Group 2, EBV and HHV-6 DNA was found to be absent in 44.44 and 5.55% of patients, respectively. In all the groups, the serum and spontaneous production of IFN-α did not change significantly one month after the end of therapy. The level of induced IFN-α tended to decrease. IFN-γ production also tended to reduce in all the groups. After the end of therapy, the patients in all the groups showed a significant decline in the number of clinical complaints. Conclusion. The efficiency of allokin-alpha therapy varies in patients with chronic herpesvirus infection and depends upon virus type. The greatest efficacy of the drug was found in patients with EBV infection.

Published: September 2023

The dynamics of the levels of biological markers in the oral fluid is closely related to the degree of severity of inflammatory phenomena of the oral mucosa. The concentration of squamous cell carcinoma antigen >500 mcg/ml (527 mcg/ml) is characteristic of erosive-ulcerative form, >1000 mcg/ml (985 mcg/ml) should be considered as a predictor of exacerbation or recurrence of lichen planus after 90 days of follow-up.

Authors: Ponomareva Elena Aleksandrovna
Published: September 2023

The article is devoted to the problem of constructing the variable content of physics taught at a medical university. The authors conducted a detailed analysis of integrative academic disciplines taught in medical universities in Russia. It is revealed that there are still no uniform requirements for filling the content of physics as part of integrative disciplines, teaching physics in all medical specialties is carried out on the basis of programs developed by teachers of different medical universities in different ways. The authors propose a combined approach to the construction of the variable content of physics for students of various medical specialties, the main idea of which is to transform the content of the variable part of physical education in a medical university in accordance with the application of physical concepts, which has a high interdisciplinary significance for the profile disciplines of OPOP.

The purpose of this study was to study the effectiveness of the use of efferent methods of treatment (plasmapheresis) and the immunomodulator "Allokin-alpha" in the program of preoperative chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. The study included 79 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer T2a-2bN0-1M0 gy 2. All patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy according to the scheme: cisplatin and bleomycin. Patients in the control group were treated directly with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. All patients of the main group had a plasmapheresis session before the course of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients of the second main subgroup additionally underwent a course of nonspecific immunotherapy with the drug "Allokin-alpha". The dynamics of immunological and biochemical blood parameters were studied in all patients during treatment. Statistical data processing was performed using the Statistica for Windows v.10.0 software package. It has been proved that neoadjuvant chemotherapy in combination with plasmapheresis and nonspecific immunotherapy in the treatment of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer is pathogenetically justified, because it allows to enhance the effect of cytostatics on the tumor and significantly increases the overall 5-year survival of patients. The immunological data obtained during the use of plasmapheresis and Allokin-alpha in the course of chemotherapy can be regarded as prognostically favorable and reflecting the clinical dynamics of patients with cervical cancer. It seems appropriate to include plasmapheresis and immunomodulation with an interferon inducer in the complex treatment of patients with cervical cancer.

Authors: Sapronov Georgy Vitalievich , Belyaeva Natalia Mikhailovna
Published: September 2023

Objective. To determine whether leukopenia might be corrected with allokin-alpha in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) receiving combination antiviral therapy (AVT). Subjects and methods. Sixty-five patients aged 18 to 36 years with CHC and leukopenia resulting from combination therapy with pegylated interferon IFN-α-2а and ribavirin were followed up. For correction of evolving IFN-induced leukopenia, the patients received 18 allokin-alpha injections subcutaneously as three subsequent courses (6 injections for each course) in a dose of 1.0 mg thrice weekly for 2 weeks at a one-week interval between the courses. The drug was administered after 12-week combination therapy. Results. The use of allokin-alpha during standard AVT for CHC leads to the elimination of IFN-induced leukopenia in 75% of the patients, which allows the whole course of therapy to be performed in the majority of patients, without reducing the dose of IFN.
