Determination of suitable strategies for the development of biomass energy investments in Turkey by AHP method
Authors: DİNÇER Hasan , YÜKSEL Serhat , YAVUZ Duygu
Published: June 2023

Biomass energy investments are very important for Turkey. Biomass energy can be an important resource for Turkey's energy security. Considering that Turkey is a foreign-dependent country for energy, these investments will contribute to the country's energy independence. In this context, it would be appropriate for Turkey to take action to increase biomass energy investments. The purpose of this study is to identify appropriate strategies to increase biomass energy investments in Turkey. Within this framework, four different criteria are selected by focusing on literature review. In the following stage, the weights of these items are calculated by AHP methodology. The findings indicate that technological plays an essential role to improve the biomass energy investments in Turkey. Additionally, legal efficiency should also be taken into consideration in this context. However, financial evaluation and customer satisfaction are on the last ranks. It is understood that technological development is of great importance to increase biomass energy investments. Technological developments can contribute to increase efficiency in biomass energy production. Thus, both efficiency of the project will be increased, and the operating costs will be reduced. This situation provides the opportunity to increase the competitiveness of biomass energy projects. Technological developments can also increase the environmental sensitivity of these projects. Owing to advancing technologies, biomass energy projects that do not cause any carbon emissions will be able to be created.

Authors: Cletus Otu Obun , Sanda Zumunta Madaki , Wafar Rapheal
Published: June 2023

Introduction: Evaluation of using plants, such as Vitex doniana leaf meal as an alternative feed resource in broiler diets decreases the feed costs. The current study examined how air-dried Vitex doniana, Black Plum Leaf Meal (BPLM) could affect broiler chicken growth performance, hematological parameters and serum biochemical indices, carcass yield, and relative organ weights.
Materials and methods: In a completely randomized design, 54 Arbor Acre broiler chicks aged 28 days old were allocated to two treatments. Each group included 27 chickens with three replicates (nine chickens per replication). The chickens were fed two diets, including basal diet (control) and basal diet with 5% dry matter BPLM for two weeks.  
Results: The results of the nutrient composition of BPLM revealed 17.16% crude protein, 11.10% crude fiber, 1.70% ether extract, 7.10% ash, 39.0% nitrogen-free extract, 2413 metabolizable energy (kcal), 1.34% calcium, and 0.06% phosphorus. As a rich source of phytic acids, BPLM contains (14.69 mg/100g), tannins (3.23 mg/100 g), and oxalates (20 mg/100 g). The results showed that chickens fed a 5% BPLM-supplemented diet had lower feed intake but improved growth performance compared to the control. There was no significant difference in hematological and serum biochemical indices, carcass traits, cut-up parts, and relative organ weights.
Conclusion: Incorporating BPLM into a finisher broiler diet decreases feed intake but improves growth performance. In addition, the results showed no effect on hematological and biochemical parameters or relative organ weights in chickens supplemented with BPLM.

ธุรกิจครอบครัวมีความสำคัญอย่างยิ่งต่อเศรษฐกิจโลกและต่อเศรษฐกิจของประเทศไทย มีการประมาณการว่า 75 เปอร์เซ็นต์ของธุรกิจบนโลกใบนี้คือธุรกิจครอบครัว สำหรับประเทศไทย มีการประมาณว่า 72 เปอร์เซ็นต์ของระบบเศรษฐกิจไทยคือธุรกิจครอบครัว ธุรกิจครอบครัวเป็นตัวขับเคลื่อนหลักของเศรษฐกิจไทยและทำให้เกิดการจ้างแรงงานมากมายเพื่อมาปฏิบัติการในองค์กรธุรกิจครอบครัวเหล่านี้ อาการส่งต่อธุรกิจครอบครัวไม่สามารถดำเนินต่อไปได้ และธุรกิจครอบครัวเกิดความล่มสลาย นอกจากจะส่งผลต่อเศรษฐกิจไทยแล้วยังส่งผลต่อภาคแรงงานส่วนใหญ่ ก่อให้เกิดภาวะการว่างงานและกลายเป็นปัญหาสำหรับรัฐบาลที่ต้องเพิ่มมาตรการเยียวยาและใช้งบประมาณจำนวนมากเพื่อแก้ปัญหา
ในระยะเวลาหลายสิบปีที่ผ่านมาธุรกิจครอบครัวในประเทศไทยเกิดคดีความมากมายที่สืบเนื่องมาจากการขัดแย้งเรื่องผลประโยชน์การชิงอำนาจการบริหารงานระหว่างสมาชิกกันเอง โดยปัญหาส่วนใหญ่จะเกิดในสมาชิกรุ่นที่ 2 เส้นทางให้การส่งต่อธุรกิจครอบครัวไปยังรุ่นที่ 3 เป็นไปได้ยากหรืออาจจะเป็นไปไม่ได้เลย ความขัดแย้งกันในบางกรณีเป็นการฟ้องร้องกันและให้กฎหมายเป็นผู้ตัดสิน แต่ในบางกรณีก็บานปลายจนกระทบความสัมพันธ์ของครอบครัวจนเลือกที่จะใช้ความรุนแรงถึงขั้นจ้างวานฆ่าสมาชิกในครอบครัวเพื่อจบปัญหา
ในขณะเดียวกันก็มีธุรกิจครอบครัวไทยที่ประสบความสำเร็จในการดำเนินการส่งต่อธุรกิจจากรุ่นสู่รุ่น ซึ่งการส่งต่อธุรกิจจากรุ่นสู่รุ่นนั้นประกอบด้วยหลายปัจจัย เช่นความสามารถในการเป็นผู้บริหารเจ้าของกิจการและบริหารคนในครอบครัวไปพร้อมกัน ความสามารถของทายาทที่จะรับช่วงสืบทอดธุรกิจ ความสามารถในการบริหารความขัดแย้งเป็นต้น นอกจากให้ความสำคัญกับปัจจัยที่มีผลกระทบต่อความอยู่รอดของธุรกิจครอบครัวแล้ว ยังต้องมีการนำหลักและวิธีการทางกฎหมายเข้ามาจัดการและบังคับภายในองค์กรธุรกิจครอบครัวอย่างจริงจัง ซึ่งเป็นอีกทางเลือกหนึ่งที่จะลดความขัดแย้งในครอบครัวรวมถึงส่งเสริมให้ธุรกิจไทยสามารถดำรงอยู่ได้อย่างยั่งยืน
กฎหมายอาจเป็นเครื่องมือที่สำคัญและจำเป็นในการสร้างแผนสืบทอดธุรกิจครอบครัวรวมถึงช่วยส่งเสริมให้ธุรกิจครอบครัวไทยดำรงอยู่ได้อย่างยั่งยืนและจากการสันนิษฐานนี้ จึงเป็นที่มาของการศึกษาเพื่อค้นหาเรื่อง การจัดทำสัญญาระหว่างผู้ถือหุ้นเพื่อลดความขัดแย้งและสร้างความยั่งยืนให้ธุรกิจครอบครัว โดยกำหนดคำถามวิจัยไว้ว่า การจัดทำสัญญาระหว่างผู้ถือหุ้นส่งเสริมให้เกิดความยั่งยืนในธุรกิจครอบครัวได้อย่างแท้จริง และควรเผยแผ่ ชักจูงให้ธุรกิจครอบครัวไทยหันมาให้ความสำคัญและเริ่มจัดทำแผนการสืบทอดธุรกิจรวมถึงเอกสารทางกฎหมาย เพื่อนำมาใช้เป็นแนวทางบังคับให้สมาชิกในครอบครัวหลีกเลี่ยงการสร้างปัญหาให้กับธุรกิจ เป็นแผนรับมือเบื้องต้นเมื่อเกิดปัญหา และหากปัญหานั้นไม่สามารถจัดการกันได้เองภายในครอบครัว ยังสามารถนำเอกสารที่สร้างขึ้นจากกฎหมายนี้เข้าจัดการแทนได้

Due to their intimate contact with sick patients, nurses working in public hospitals are more likely to catch COVID-19. They must, therefore, be well-versed in COVID-19 prevention strategies if they are to reduce the danger of the virus spreading to susceptible patients. Nurses are better prepared to give their patients safe and effective care if they are informed about the virus’s mechanisms of transmission, symptoms, and how to utilize personal protective equipment (PPE). As a result, this study was carried out to evaluate the level of awareness of COVID-19 prevention among nurses working in Dhaka, Bangladesh’s public hospitals. Three public tertiary hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, were the sites of a descriptive type cross-sectional study with a sample size of 384 from October 2021 to December 2021. According to the study’s findings, a total of 93.25 percent of respondents had strong knowledge, whereas 6.75 percent had low knowledge. The respondent’s greatest degree of education and years of experience were substantially correlated with their level of expertise. According to the study’s findings, Dhaka’s public hospital nurses generally possess a high degree of expertise in COVID-19 prevention. To protect their safety and stop the spread of COVID-19, more training should be given on how to utilize PPE and disinfection techniques.

Published: June 2023

The biostratigraphy and chronostratigraphy of Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous (Tithonian–Aptian) successions at three outcrops in the Kurdistan Region, northern and northeastern Iraq (Amadia, Gara, and Barsarin sections) are studied depending on ammonite, planktic, and benthic foraminiferal contents. The studied formations: Chia Gara, Sarmord, and Qamchuqa, are recorded in all studied localities, while Garagu and Balambo formations are exposed at some studied localities. Age determination of the Chia Gara Formation relied on the ammonite fauna. The ammonites investigated are the major assemblage fauna of the Durangites Zone, which corresponds to the Late Tithonian. The detailed planktic foraminiferal investigation in Balambo Formation permits the recognition of five well-defined zones, these are Favusella hoterivica Interval Zone, Hedbergella sigali Interval Zone, Globigerinelloides ferreolensis Interval Zone, Globigerinelloides blowi Interval Zone, and Globigerinelloides algeriana Taxon Range Zone (part), which reveal a Late Valanginian to Late Aptian age. The stratigraphic distribution of the benthic foraminifera shows three zones, these are Everticyclammina kelleri Assemblage Zone, Pseudocyclammina lituus Assemblage Zone, and Palorbitolina lenticularis Taxon Range Zone, the 1st and 2nd zones were recognized in the Sarmord Formation at Amadia section, which extends in age from late Valanginian to Hauterivian. While the 3rd zone is recorded from Qamchuqa Formation at the Gara section representing the Early Aptian age.

Groundwater potential recharge (GWPR) zones are an important process in managing water resources. Six thematic layers were used to produce GWPR mapping for Wadi Al-Batin alluvial fan, Southwestern Iraq with GIS environment and analytical hierarchical process (AHP), including geology, lineaments density, slope gradient, drainage density, soil, and slope aspect. Based on the importance, the thematic layers are ranked, which control the GWPR. Drainage density, lineament density, slope aspect, and slope gradient maps are classified into five classes, whereas, geology and soil are classified into six classes. The classes are weighted based on the magnitude of groundwater recharge potential. The AHP technique divides the entire into three zones based on GWPR values: high, moderate, and low. The final GWPR map demonstrated that the western and northwestern parts of the alluvial fan have greater groundwater recharge potentials with 70% of the total area due to the increase in the infiltration rates as a result of the gravely and sandy soils besides the agricultural land use in the present areas. However, the other part of the fan ranged between moderate and low with 25% and 5% of the total area, indicating suitable zones for groundwater artificial recharge processes.

The current study aims to assess the groundwater quality in the Wana area, Northwest of Mosul. Water samples were collected from 18 selected wells within the study area during the dry season of October 2020 and the wet season of April 2021. Field and laboratory measurements including electrical conductivity (EC), TDS, pH, Total hardness, and major and some minor ions analyses were performed following standard methods. The results revealed a wide variation of EC values ranging from 0.66 to 5.09 ds⋅m-1. All wells have hard water due to the presence of gypsum and carbonate rocks. The water quality index (WQI) values showed that wells drilled in the Fatha Formation and wells of mixed water from both the Fatha Formation and the Quaternary sediments provide low-quality drinking water. Wells that only penetrate the Quaternary sediments yield good-quality drinking water. According to the irrigation WQI, the Fatha Formation wells produce low-quality irrigation water, and the water quality of wells drilled in Quaternary sediments or that penetrate both the Fatha Formation and Quaternary sediments (mixed water) ranges from excellent to acceptable for irrigation purposes.

Fingertip injury is one of the most commonly encountered injuries in the emergency department. In our country, hand injuries can happen for various reasons, and motorbike chain injuries are the commonest. In this case report, we present a complete traumatic amputation of the right index finger at the distal interphalangeal joint caused by a motorbike chain injury. This index finger injury falls under the category of a crush avulsion. The nerve was not repaired, but the digital artery and vein were repaired during reattachment. The patient expressed satisfaction with the surgical results three months after the procedure, both in terms of functionality and appearance. This case report aims to present a successful reimplantation of the index finger without nerve repair. KeyWords: Fingertip, Tamai Zone II, Motorbike chain, Replantation
Gene-making: some questions answered
Authors: Matheson Stephen
Published: June 2023

In my previous post I attempted to identify all the ways that a new gene can come about, after defining what I meant by "new" and "gene." Two questions came up, one a comment on the post, and the other via Facebook. 1. What about exon shuffling? Isn't that a mechanism by which new genes are made? Exon shuffling is, roughly, the creating of new coding sequences (genes, as I'm defining them in this series) by the rearrangement of pieces of coding sequence. (An exon is a piece of coding...

The research was devoted to determination of the status level of occupational prestige and the factors it influenced typical for Ukrainians on the background of the world finance-economic crises. Four cycles of complex representative across-country survey (n=2407, n=2394, n =2480 and n =1270) were conducted during 2008–2010. In addition, focus-group research with a variety of target audiences directed to discover occupational prestige factors was carried out. Two occupational typologies - one based on ISCO-88 and another based on the differentiation of the subjects of professional activity (man-man, man-technology, man-nature, man-symbol, man-artistic image) - were implemented for data analyses (n =1251 for adults and n =1250 adolescences). In consequence, the national standard of occupational prestige was created which was compared with the Standard International Occupational Prestige Scale. Five profiles determining their profession as prestigious were created after factor analyses. The most important factor is the idea about high earnings. Women more than men connected occupational prestige with comfortable work conditions, possibilities for rapid career, privileges, glory (fame), stability. In addition, the higher the respondent's education level the more important are such factors as opportunity for creative self-realisation and solving difficult tasks accessible only for some people. The coexistence of the same occupations in different lists of deficitprestige occupations is explained by both stereotypes of consciousness and stereotypes of economic system as remnants of the socialist way of life. Therefore, strategies which include such steps as fixing cycles, information during the detection of the stereotypes, the new cycle of information in collaboration with the system of vocational training is proposed.

Authors: Bravo Meneses Lesly Patricia , Gambos Abón Lidia Verónica
Published: June 2023

El presente artículo de revisión tuvo un enfoque de investigación de la literatura sin metaanálisis, siendo objetivo revisar el estado de conocimiento sobre la justicia militar policial en el control de los actos delictivos de rol en el personal castrense; la población fueron artículos sobre el tema en el mundo, la muestra fueron los artículos de Perú y sus países fronterizos, con el fin de dar una mejor perspectiva. Los resultados permiten concluir que la justicia militar es un sistema de leyes y procedimientos que rige la conducta de los integrantes de las FFAA, es distinta de la ley civil y su propósito es conservar el buen orden y la disciplina dentro de las FFAA, buscando su eficiencia y eficacia en la protección de la nación. Los delitos de función están tipificados en el cuerpo legal castrense, los cuales son endosables solo y únicamente al personal castrense en contexto de funciones, delitos contra la seguridad y la defensa nacional. La controversia del Fuero Militar, y de una única justicia, es una corriente ideológica de la sociedad civil, que vive un ambiente de paz, sin mayor sacrificio que su voluntad; la actividad militar es el compromiso de luchar, dar la vida, ir más allá del deber, ello requiere valores de disciplina, sacrificio y honor entre otros que son opcionales en la justicia ordinaria, privilegio de la condición de civil, los cuales para un policía o militar no son opción. En este sentido, esta revisión considera la idoneidad del fuero militar policial en el control de los delitos de función.

Published: June 2023

Cold plasma technology has developed in recent decades as a method of processing meat that functions as a bacteriostatic and bactericide, and it is used to treat meat as a non-thermal technique to preserve the sensory qualities of meat. Yet, one of the disadvantages of this approach is lipid oxidation. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of aqueous grape seed extract at a (1%) concentration after spraying it onto meat (100 ml/kg) and then treating it with cold plasma (plasma jet) using argon gas at a frequency of 23 kHz, a voltage of 150 kV, a distance of 2 cm, and a time of 5 minutes, as well as to demonstrate the extent of its effect on the sensory evaluation (penal test) of meat at 4 ℃ for 12 days. We separated 100 samples of minced beef into three groups. Group (1)- Control (Con), group (2)-Cold plasma (Cp), group (3)-Grape seeds extract (GSE), and group (4)-Cold plasma mixed Grape seed extract (CP+GSE): Each group has 25 samples, and all parameters were measured. In conclusion, up until the end of the storage period at 4 °C, an analysis of sensory quality revealed that the beef samples treated with GSE and Cp+GSE, respectively, had the highest panel test score.
