Obtaining high results in the production of highquality beef in beef cattle breeding is impossible without well-organized fattening of gobies. In the conditions of Yakutia, fattening of gobies from 15 months of age can be carried out in autumn, after the summer grazing feeding. Under economic conditions of feeding, high growth rates of fattening young animals cannot be obtained. Therefore, intensive fattening with the use of mineral feeding of cattle is used. The paper presents research materials on the morphological and biochemical composition of blood and its serum in calves of the Kalmyk breed, which are on scientific and industrial fattening. In the experimental group of animals, local natural feed additives – zeolite and salt – were added to the diet, which served as adaptogens and sources of mineral elements. During the feeding period before the slaughter, the morphological composition of blood in terms of indicators has insignificant decreases, but within the physiological norm. We see these changes in the gobies of the experimental control group and associate them with a sharp decrease in atmospheric air temperature to –15 °C in the first ten days of November 2019 and a constant transition to roughage. It is also possible that the use of natural feed additives in the form of feeding zeolite and salt increases metabolic processes in the animal's body. A comparative analysis of biochemical parameters in the blood serum of gobies of the experimental group confirmed significant differences in hepatic enzymes (ALT and AST) in animals. The use of non-traditional natural feed additives with the inclusion in the diet of fattening gobies affects the hematological and biochemical parameters of blood and its serum, and, accordingly, meat quality.

Published: December 2020

The article presents the impact of the degree of holsteinization of cows on the terms of use, the level of dairy products during the period of economic use, and reproducing qualities. The research was carried out in the conditions of the Vologda district. The sample included 592 black and mottled cows that dropped out of the herd in 2008–2017, with the first finished lactation. The analysis of longevity and reproducing qualities was carried out over seven years from the date of the first calving. Studies to analyze the effect of the Holstein genotype on productive longevity found that animals with a 26 to 49 % roofing differed in the duration of economic use (3,4 lactation and 1 569 days) and the lifelong productivity of base fat (27 104 kg). The animals with this genotype received the largest number of calves (4,1 heads) during the period of economic use. There was an increase in the multiple of insemination, reduction of the reproduction rate on reproducible qualities with an increase in blood 50 % or more. It characterizes the intensity of the process of substitution of endangered animals with non-animals, and as a result, lengthening of service and inter-period periods. The findings suggest that crossing black and mottled cows with holsteins and getting blood mixes from 26 to 49 % contributes to increasing the productive life expectancy of cows while increasing lifelong productivity while maintaining reproducing qualities at a reasonably good level.

The paper discusses technical aspects involved in developing seeding control systems for grain seeders and sowing machines. Construction and technological parameters of seeding control systems are based on the analysis of the available machinery. As a result an operation-performing unit was constructed and tested in field trials. The RatinalRose visual simulation environment was used to design the software of the seeding control system. The environment allowed for interpreting the volume concentration of particles. A procedure for collecting and presenting data was developed. COMPAS com106 puter program was used to create a 3D design of the sensor and measure its parameters, then the sensor case was made using a 3D printer. Field trials involved comparing 2 identical drills under identical conditions. The drill equipped with the seeding control system had better indices of time saving and efficiency (by 22 %). The study results allowed us to develop the software for the seeding control system and determine the optimal design and process parameters of the seeding control sensor for a pneumatic drill in order to reduce clogging in the seed pipes and improve the quality of seed distribution.

Published: December 2020

This study is an exploratory descriptive research that attempts to explore the measurement indicators of debtors’ behavior in microfinance industry. It employs as much of previous studies showed little attention in the relation of debtor's behaviour and non-performing loans. On the contrary, they spotlight more on the banking-specific information and macroeconomics factors. Therefore, this research tries to discover the debtor's behaviour which is assumed to have an impact on non-performing loans. The behaviours which employed and proposed are impulsiveness, risk-taking behaviour, and trustworthiness. This study aims to inquiry the measurement scales of proposed behaviours as well as test the validity and reliability of those indicators by employing exploratory factor analysis (EFA). The result shows that there are three indicators accepted being a measuring instrument of impulsiveness, two for risk-taking behaviour, and four signs for trustworthiness. It also examines in the descriptive analysis of the debtor's behaviour based on their socio-demographic criteria such as gender, age, marriage status, and wage. The research result would give an insight into both empirical and practical advantage in terms of microfinancing management. Theoretically, this paper serves a valid and reliable of debtors’ behavior measurement scales that would contribute for future research in testing the relation of such behavior variables to non-performing loans.

DEFORMATION OF CONSUMER DEMAND UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ARTIFICIAL INFORMATION ASYMMETRY
Authors: Anzhelika GERASYMENKO , Victoriya KOVTUN
Published: December 2020

Background. The formation of the information economy has stimulated eco­nomic entities to form and operate artificial information asymmetry, which highlights the importance of research in this problematic area. Analysis of recent research and publications. Information asymmetry has become the subject of research by a number of Nobel laureates and less-known econo­mists who have studied the effects of artificial information asymmetry in the system of "principal-agent" relations, competitive, contractual relations, and so on. The aim of the article is to determine the mechanism of influence of artificial information asymmetry on consumer demand. Materials and methods. The research is based on the theoretical and economic analysis of scientific works of researchers of the phenomenon of information asymmetry, as well as the analytical processing of statistical data. Graphic modelling of the influence of manipulative practices of creating artificial information asymmetry on the consumer value of economic good is carried out. Results. Deceptive commercial practices are becoming increasingly popular in the information economy, making it possible to critically increase the consumer value of economic benefits in terms of its emotional component. At the same time, the use of digital algorithms for consumer identification and collection of consumer histories allows the most productive exploitation of the corresponding increase in consumer value, converting it into additional income by means of price personalization. Conclusion. Regardless of the tool used to increase information asymmetry between buyers and sellers of consumer goods, the mechanism of its deforming influence remains unchanged: the primary deformation is subjective assessment of the total utility of con­sumption of goods, which causes overestimation of the emotional component of its consumer value, resulting in deformed consumer demand, the reserve price of the corres­ponding good increases, and with it - the personalized price of its sale for the concrete consumer.

Authors: Rakhshaee Zahra , Maasoumi Raziyeh , Nedjat Saharnaz , Khakbazan Zohreh
Published: December 2020

Background: Sexual health literacy enables an understanding and application of sexual health information and has benefits beyond health. Health literacy is an important element for achieving cognitive skills in health promotion. One of the most important problems in sexual health and sexual function in women is infertility. This study aims to explore the dimensions of sexual health literacy among women with infertility. Materials and Methods: In this qualitative study, a total of 18 individual interviews with 15 Iranian women with infertility, and three key informants, were conducted in infertility centers in Rasht (the North of Iran). Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews using interview guide questions. Data were analyzed using the conventional content analysis approach. Results: Five themes emerged: informational needs of sexual health, information seeking, informational perception, validation of information, and information application. Sexual issues are taboo in Iranian culture. They are not taught in health and educational centers. All the participants believed that there was a lack of information about the sexual response cycle, preventing sexually transmitted infections, targeted intercourse, and consequences of infertility in sexual life. Participants mentioned the embarrassment, privacy, and lack of centers for sexual health as information-seeking barriers. Searching different sources and questioning the informants were ways for understanding information. Women evaluated the accuracy of the information by considering the validity of the source of information, comparing information from different sources, and asking the experts. They applied the information received about sexual health, satisfaction, and especially targeted intercourse to increase the chance of pregnancy. Conclusion: Sexual health literacy in infertile women includes different dimensions. It can help promote sexual health, satisfaction, and increasing the chance of pregnancy. [GMJ.2020;9:e1862]

Background: The function of healthcare workers, particularly nursing staff, in taking care of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients, cannot be overemphasized. As the pandemic lasts, burnout among the nursing staff needs to be considered as an important challenge. This was aimed to assess the nurses’ burnout and factors affecting this variable. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, Maslach Burnout Inventory was completed by 261 nurses in Shiraz hospitals (Iran) in April 2020. This questionnaire addresses different aspects, including emotional exhaustion, personal achievement, and depersonalization, to determine the intensity of perceived burnout among nurses during the outbreak. Results: Our data demonstrated that the nurses’ burnout in Shiraz hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic was high (64.6%). Emotional exhaustion and depersonalization were observed in 63.6 and 53.3 percent of the participants, respectively. Moreover, the rate of successful personal achievement among these nurses was >97%. Work experience <10 years (P=0.016), hospital ward (P=0.044), the number of deaths observed by nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic (P<0.001), and the total number of shifts during the COVID-19 pandemic (P=0.006) had a positive correlation with emotional exhaustion. Conclusion: Workload and stress resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak seem to be one of the major causes of emotional exhaustion in nurses. The emotional exhaustion among nurses must be considered in epidemics, such as COVID-19. [GMJ.2020;9:e1956]

Published: December 2020

The publication presents the first translation into Russian of the 15th chapter from the hagiographic collection by Farid ad-Din ʻAttar (d. ca. 1221 AD) Memorial of God’s friends (Taẕkiratu’l-awliyā) originally written in Persian. The chapter deals with biography, exploits and sayings of ʻAbdallah b. al-Mubarak of Khorasan, a recognized collector and transmitter of hadith, a renown ascetic, successful merchant, and severe warrior, but first of all a devoted and true worshiper (ʻābid) of God. The translation has been completed from the critical edition by Muhammad Esteʻlami. It is introduced by short preface, which provides basic information on Ibn Mubarak’s life and his place in the tradition of Muslim piety. The translation is supplied with historical and linguistic commentary. The tranlator stresses the fact that although being constructed on Arabic sources the actual narrative created by ʻAttar fits into the framework of Iranian hagiography. In describing the life and deeds of ʻAbdallah b. al-Mubarak of Khorasan ʻAttar created an Iranian version of the “Sufi prototype”. He emphasized features, such as humility, self-abasement, miracle-working, and participation in miraculous events.

Children are the mandate from Allah in that children have the rights to live and be loved by parents. Children’s growth and development are very dependent upon how parents educate and guide them. Children are like white paper given the potential by Allah, and such potential must be developed by parents in any condition and situation even though, for instance in a particular case, the parents must get divorce. Departing from this argument, this study aimed to find out a depiction of children's (17 children) education continuity after their parents got divorce in Babakan Baru Village, Bermani Ulu Raya District, Rejang Lebong Regency, Bengkulu. This study used a qualitative approach with key informants referring to parents who got divorce, close family members, child victims of divorce, and community and religious leaders. In addition, the marriage registrars of KUA in Bernani Ulu Raya were involved as the secondary informants. The data were obtained from observations and interviews, and they were analyzed using the approach of Miles et al with the stages encompassing data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusion. This study found the conclusion that the continuity of children's education after parental divorce in Babakan Baru Village was not solely grounded in parental divorce, but it was more dominantly influenced by economic factors and parents' awareness of the importance of children’s education.
Synthesis of heterogeneous catalysts based on manganese oxides applied for the aerobic oxidation of p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol to p-hydroxybenzaldehyde
Authors: Le Viet Lam Anh , Luu Thi Xuan Thi , Le Tien Khoa Khoa
Published: December 2020

In order to synthesize p-hydroxybenzaldehyde from p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol under oxygen atmosphere, we prepared the new heterogeneous catalysts based on manganese oxides by in-situ growth method at different pH values. The crystal structure, phase composition, morphology, and surface groups of catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, field emission electron scanning microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. According to the experimental results, the solution pH used for the preparation of the catalysts strongly affected their properties and their catalytic activities. When the pH was increased from 2 to 4, the a-Mn2O3 content increased with the dominant presence of the rod-like particles. The quantity of Mn on the surface also enhanced which might improve the conversion of p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol while maintaining the high selectivity to p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (about 70%). However, when the pH was highr than 4, the quantity of rod-like particles,a-Mn2O3 and surface Mn species decreased which lowered the catalytic activity.
Synthesis of ZnO material: A new approach by hydrothermal method

Published: December 2020

Zinc oxide (ZnO) material possesses various morphologies which have given ZnO many fascinating applications in practice. Thus, the controlled synthesis of morphology and size of ZnO microstructures has attracted great interest. Many synthetic methods exhibited their effectiveness in producing pure ZnO, and the hydrothermal synthesis expresses its own considerable advantages for controlling the morphology of ZnO with low particle-size distribution. Moreover, the hydrothermal synthesis can be performed under mild condition rather than the conventional harsh ceramic method. In this work, we performed hydrothermal synthesis by altering different initial seeds by pre-treating of Zinc acetate solution prior to hydrothermal action. Characterization methods such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman and Infrared (IR) spectroscopy were used to determine the morphology and surface functional groups of ZnO final products. Firstly, we processed the pretreatment of Zinc acetate solution by annealing it at 90 ◦C for 1h before putting the solution into autoclave together with NH3 solution for hydrothermal synthesis (this process is called as two-step hydrothermal synthesis). Secondly, the reaction temperatures (120 ◦C, 150 ◦C, 180 ◦C) were investigated to provide the role of temperature synthesis in controlling size and shape of ZnO, and at 150 ◦C, ZnO particles were formed with reasonable uniform morphology. Finally, we examined the effects of initial seeds by pre-treating Zinc acetate solution with H2O2, or, the initial seeds change from only Zn(OH)2 (without H2O2) to mutual existence of Zn(OH)2 and ZnO2 (with H2O2). In this case, ZnO Wurtzite phase was obtained with 100% purity at 180 ◦C, or at higher temperature than other samples whose ZnO Wurtzite phase was formed at only 150 ◦C. The results show that the nature of initial seeds greatly impact not only on the shape and size, but also on the surface functional groups of ZnO final product.

Published: December 2020

Current bone regeneration surgeries focus on regenerating damaged bone tissue structures rather than replacing them. Bone-derived hydroxyapatite (HAP) is a natural bone component with good bone resilience, emerging and a promising bone graft material. Factors in the synthesis process are very important to the properties of hydroxyapatite. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of three different furnaced temperatures on the size and phase purity of the HA crystal. The research consists of the following two stages: after combining physical and chemical methods in the first period to eliminate most of the organic components; bones continue to be heated at temperatures of 600oC, 700oC and 800oC to create the various size of HA crystals in bone particles. Product composition and size of HA crystal are determined by TGA, XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDX methods. The results show that crystal size and phase purity can be controlled and increased with the temperature. In particular, the HA crystal size did not change significantly in the range of 600◦C but increased 10-times above 700◦C. Single crystal HA is expected to form in the range of 600 - 700◦C. After the sample was heated to 600◦C, the organic compounds such as blood and bone marrow were completely burned. In addition, two trace elements, Na and Mg, were not completely removed as in other cases but were still retained inside the bone particle. The Ca/P ratio is 1.63 is similar to the Ca/P ratio found in human bones.

Background and objectives: The increasing incidence of COVID-19 continues to cause distress, concern, and anxiety amongst the public, mostly for healthcare workers, as they are the most vulnerable individuals at risk of contracting this new SARS-CoV-2 outbreak. This study measured levels of knowledge and attitude regarding COVID-19 among health care workers in Libya.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among healthcare workers in Libya between April 22 and June 16, 2020 using online pre-validate questionnaire. A total of 272 valid participants from 28.7% nurses, 25.3% physicians, 34.2% pharmacists, and 11.8% other health care workers, were included.
Results: The majority of respondents (54.4%) were from the western part of Libya, and most of participants (41.2%) used international health websites as a source of information. Most of the participants (89.3%) perceived that they had adequate knowledge about COVID-19, and (95.6%) of respondents affirmed that COVID-19 can be life-threatening disease. All participants agreed that the transmission of COVID-19 can be prevented by using standard and isolation precautions given by the health care authorities. In addition, most participants had good attitude toward the adequate information about COVID-19 in Libyan society.
Conclusion: Readiness for the pandemic were low among government institutions as spotted from this study. Therefore, an effective educational training program should be implemented to ensure maintenance of appropriate practices during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Motivación: un recorrido histórico y teórico de los principales marcos conceptuales
Authors: Serafini Matías , Cuenya Lucas
Published: December 2020

Literatura sobre estudios motivacionales presenta una enrevesada yuxtaposición de definiciones provenientes de marcos teóricos disímiles. Un inconveniente que surge al revisar esta literatura es la polisemia que hay en torno al constructo. En un sentido general la motivación se relaciona con procesos básicos que proporcionan energía y dirección a la conducta. La energía implica que el comportamiento tiene fortaleza, intensidad y persistencia. La dirección refiere a que la conducta tiene un propósito y está orientada a una meta en particular. Se puede esbozar una división en torno al origen de la energía (i.e., interna vs externa) o la dirección del comportamiento (i.e., intrínseco vs extrínseco). La motivación no debe entenderse como una serie de categorías aisladas u opuestas, sino como un sistema multicomponente que dinamiza y orienta la conducta hacia el logro de una meta. En esta revisión se recorren los principales marcos conceptuales de las ciencias del comportamiento a partir de los que se desprenden términos motivacionales, desde la psicología experimental en modelos animales y los últimos hallazgos neurocientíficos hasta los trabajos sobre psicología sociocognitiva en humanos, con el objetivo de entablar lazos entre los estudios básicos y aplicados.
Análisis semiótico del lexicón de la comida peruana amazónica
Authors: Loayza Maturrano Edward Faustino
Published: December 2020

La semiótica cultural es un campo de la llamada semiótica contemporánea alternativa, caracterizada por su originalidad en el abordaje interdisciplinario en el análisis crítico del discurso. Este trabajo se centra en el repertorio léxico de la comida amazónica tomando como objetivo principal reconocer y caracterizar los distintos significados pragmasemióticos desde el enfoque sociocultural-semiótico propuesto por Lotman. Empleando el diseño etnográfico de la comunicación y el interaccionismo simbólico se analiza el repertorio de la comida amazónica desde una perspectiva interdisciplinaria: sociolingüística, comunicativo-intercultural y semiótica. Los principales resultados del estudio se concentran en una propuesta de interpretar las interacciones simbólicas de los significados del lexicón de la comida amazónica. Se concluye que la comida amazónica peruana configura un aparato simbólico multicultural, metafórico y polisémico como estrategia comunicativa intercultural, y un código lingüístico diasistémico particular de la sociedad peruana.
Educación superior no universitaria en tiempos de COVID-19: posibilidades y limitaciones de una experiencia en el conurbano bonaerense
Authors: Biazzi Laura , Báez Juan Ignacio
Published: December 2020

En este artículo se presenta una experiencia en torno a la educación mediada por tecnologías digitales en época de pandemia en dos cátedras de nivel superior no universitario, en un Instituto Superior de Formación Docente y Técnico de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Durante el ciclo lectivo 2020, la aparición del COVID-19 implicó reconfiguraciones en todos los niveles, las prácticas que se venían manteniendo en la presencialidad debieron transformarse rotundamente, porque estas no alcanzaban a cumplir con los objetivos mínimos a la hora de transitar una educación que sea a distancia. Las carreras seleccionadas para compartir la experiencia de trabajo realizado corresponden a un Profesorado en Enseñanza para la Educación Secundaria y una Tecnicatura Superior en Psicopedagogía.

El reciente brote de coronavirus transformó los procesos de formación llevándolos de manera emergente a la virtualidad y obligando a las instituciones de educación a desarrollar estrategias para transitar hacia la enseñanza remota. La Web Social facilitó la transición tecnológica y junto a la conformación de comunidades virtuales de aprendizaje se flexibilizaron los ambientes de enseñanza y crearon diferentes formas de interacción para cumplir los objetivos académicos. Este ensayo, a través de la revisión documental, propone lineamientos para convertir a las Redes Sociales en comunidades de aprendizaje e identifica que entre los principales beneficios están: (1) facilitar el acceso a la información, (2) la interconectividad ubicua y (3) la distribución de contenidos de forma rápida, libre y con gran alcance.
The Impact of Coal and Biomass Co-Firing on the Economy of Power Plant Carbon Capture
Authors: Zhuang Quan , Geddis Philip , Clements Bruce
Published: December 2020

A detailed economic evaluation was carried out to determine the impact of biomass and coal co-firing on power plant carbon capture by methods of plants equipment designing factors and performance, and the sum up of the associated breakdowns of CAPEX and OPEX. Based on the assumptions of the CO2 neutrality of biomass and likely governmental incentives to reduce CO2 emissions, the study results show that biomass and coal co-firing would result in both lower cost of carbon avoided (carbon capture) and lower incremental cost of electricity generation when MEA solvent carbon capture is applied. Two scenarios for co-firing with carbon capture, 30% biomass blending and 90% or 60% CO2 capture from stack, indicate different preference depending on lower or higher incentives.
Date-Palm Fiber as a Reinforcement Filler in Polymer Composites
Authors: Syed Tariq , Thelakkadan Abdul Salam , Al-Hussain Saad
Published: December 2020

Natural fibers offer a great advantage of being used as a reinforcement in polymer matrix composites because of the many advantages natural fibers offer over conventional reinforcement fillers. Date palm fiber is one of the most available natural fibrous materials in the Middle Eastern region to be exploited as a fiber reinforcement in polymers. In the present work, the fibers extracted from the date palm tree trunk, branches, and leaves were used for the reinforcement of the polypropylene matrix. Electron microscopic images show excellent bonding between the fiber and matrix as no fiber pullout is observed. The thermal (heat deflection temperature) and mechanical properties (Izod impact, tensile and flexural modulus) of the composites increased with an increase in the fiber loading from 20% to 60%, which in turn resulted in excellent mechanical properties in the final product. The work has immense significance in using date palm as an easily available natural resource for a useful product.

Sejak pandemi COVID-19 menyebar hampir ke seluruh wilayah Indonesia, proses belajar mengajar berubah dari tatap muka menjadi pembelajaran jarak jauh dengan teknologi dalam bentuk pembelajaran online dan E-learning. Karena sebagian besar sekolah di Indonesia berbasis tradisional, meski sebenarnya sudah banyak yang melaksanakan blended learning, namun mereka masih menghadapi banyak kendala dalam menerapkan pembelajaran jarak jauh menggunakan teknologi. Perbedaan jenis dan tingkat tantangan dalam pendidikan jarak jauh yang dialami sekolah dipengaruhi oleh perbedaan kesiapan yang dimiliki mereka . Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kesiapan SMA N 1 Bawang dalam menyelenggarakan pendidikan jarak jauh dengan teknologi. Kesiapan diukur dengan menilai kesiapan siswa, guru dan institusi. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif yang melibatkan 220 (dua ratus dua puluh) siswa, 4 (empat) guru Bahasa Inggris, dan seorang Kepala Sekolah SMA N 1 Bandar. Kuesioner online digunakan untuk mengumpulkan data. Hasil keseluruhan menunjukkan skor kesiapan siswa 3,44 dan skor kesiapan guru 3,84. Keduanya menujukan bahwa mereka siap menerapkan pendidikan jarak jauh dengan teknologi. Skor kesiapan institusi adalah 3,21 yang menunjukkan bahwa institusi belum siap dan perlu perbaikan untuk penerapan pembelajaran jarak jauh dengan teknologi. Karena kesiapan adalah faktor krusial yang berperan penting dalam keberhasilan pembelajaran jarak jauh dengan teknologi, maka diperlukan penilaian kesiapan di setiap elemen di sekolah. Diharapkan sekolah dapat memanfaatkan hasil penelitian ini untuk meningkatkan kesiapan mereka dalam menempuh pendidikan jarak jauh selama pandemi COVID-19.
