An Algorithm for Computing Average Mutual Information using Probability Distribution Smoothing
Authors: Goneid Amr M.S.
Published: July 2020

There is continuing interest in using Average Mutual Information (AMI) to quantify the pair-wise distance between dataset profiles. Among several algorithms used to find a numerical estimation of AMI, the histogram method is the most common since it provides simplicity and least cost. However, this algorithm is known to underestimate the computed entropies and to overestimate the resulting AMI.  Kernel Density Estimator (KDE)-based algorithms advanced to alleviate such systematic errors rely on bin-level smoothing. In the present work, we propose an alternative algorithm that uses smoothing on the probability distribution level. We consider several smoothing functions, both in the probability space and in its frequency space. An experimental approach is used to investigate the effect of such modification on the computation of both the entropy and the AMI. Results show that, to a significant extent, the present method is able to remove systematic errors in computing entropy and AMI. It is also shown that the present algorithm leads to better reconstruction of multivariate time series when AMI is used in conjunction with their independent components.

Published: July 2020

The conventional technique of measuring the quality of water is to gather the samples manually and send it laboratory for analysis, but this technique is time overwhelming and not economical. Since it is not feasible to take the water sample to the laboratory after every hour for measuring its quality. The water quality measuring system can measure the essential qualities of water in real time. The system consists of multiple sensors to measure the standard of water, microcontroller and wifi modem to send the information to the watching center. It's a true time system which is able to endlessly measure the standard of water and can send the measured values to the watching center when each predefinedtime.

During the past decade, water needs have increased unpredictably in India. Increasing demand of water supply has become a major challenge for the world. Wasteful usage of water, climatic changes and Urbanization has further depleted the resource. Conservation and management of the resource must be given utmost importance. In this paper, we present an IoT design for water monitoring and control approach which supports internet based data collection on real time bases. This paper proposes a system that addresses new challenges in the water sector -flow rate measuring and the need for a study of the supply of water in order to curb water wastage and encourage its conservation. We also measure the quality of water distributed to every household by deploying pH and conductivity sensors. The traditional water metering systems require periodic human intervention for maintenance making it inconvenient and often least effective. This system is designed to overcome for shortcoming of the existing models for a ubiquitous usage of wireless systems for smart quality monitoring and communicate datawirelessly.

Authors: Osman Sahar Elderdiri Gafar , Mohammed Ahmed Ehab Mohammed Elmadenah Mohammed , Hussain Nazik Elmaliaka
Published: July 2020

Abstract:
Background: The World Health Organization recommends molecular tests (PCR) to the diagnosis of COVID-19, which detect the (SARS-CoV2) virus RNA. However, these tests are expensive and give a high negative result. There were urgent medical and public health needs for early diagnosis and treatment to minimize the spread of COVID-19. This review aimed to summarize known to date information about the latest research progress of the sensitivity and specificity of rapid combined IgM/IgG antibody test to diagnose the pandemic novel coronavirus.
Methods: The literature search was conducted using PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct, supplemented by (Web of Science electronic databases), with the search term (COVID19 or COVID-19, novel coronavirus, SARS CoV-2 or SARS CoV2, Rapid antibody test, IgM/IgG, sensitivity, specificity).
Results: The review included eight clinical studies for a total of 782 patients with COVID-19 and 631 healthy control. The sensitivity and specificity of Gold Chromatography Immuno-Assays (GCIAs) IgM/IgG rapid test vary greatly among published studies. The IgM/IgG sensitivity ranged from 73.9 to 89.3% in 6/8 (75%) studies and the IgM/IgG specificity ranged from 88.9 to 100% in the eight (100%) reviewed studies. The pooled data revealed that the average of sensitivity and specificity was 70% and 94.5%, respectively. They agreed on its simplicity, fastness, and fewer requirements.
Conclusion: The GCIAs IgM/IgG rapid tests are simply fast and safe. Besides their short turnaround time, no specific equipment or skilled technicians’ requirements, they can serve as a rapid diagnostic test of RT-PCR-negative symptomatic patients and screening of SARS CoV-2 carriers. It cannot take the place of PCR, but the huge lab diagnosis pressure can be greatly relieved and more research is needed to detect its reliability in limited-resource settings.

ESTIMATION OF FIELD PRODUCTION PROFILES IN CASE OF ASPHALTENE DEPOSITION
Authors: Olkhovskaya V. , Struchkov I. , Evich K.
Published: July 2020

In this work, we aimed to predict possible field production scenarios in case of asphaltene deposition based on field data as well as recommend remediation and stimulation measures to mitigate the risks of asphaltene deposition in the reservoir. We considered the influence of asphaltene formation in the near-wellbore of producers on the production data without reservoir pressure maintenance system in one of the oil fields. The asphaltene envelope in the reservoir oil was obtained, and the operating conditions of the field were evaluated under the possibility of asphaltene deposition. According to the results of dynamic modeling, the pressure map was plotted and the low-pressure areas in the near-wellbore were shown, which contributes to the aggravation of the problem associated with the asphaltene envelope. Based on the geometrical features of the low-pressure area, the dependence of the permeability reduction in the near-wellbore of the production well on the operating time was obtained using the asphaltene deposition model proposed by Wang and Civan. Based on the Buckley-Leverett theory, the field production profiles were calculated with and without asphaltene deposition. A decrease in the oil rate and consequently, the decrease in cumulative oil production in the field is expected due to the damage formation by solids. Maintenance of the production level will be facilitated by treating the near-wellbore with aromatic solvents and maintaining the reservoir pressure above the asphaltene onset pressure.

Results of the ANOVA indicated that the substitution of Artemia nauplii to Phronima sp. had a significant effect (P <0.05) on survival rate. Based on the result of the proximate analysis of Phronima, the protein and fat content is insufficient for juvenile requirements, which only ranged from 37,12% and 3,82%. The results of the amino acid analysis of Phronima, the total of essential amino acids are deficient in juvenile requirements. The treatments of C and D produces the highest survival value of 96,67%. While in E treatment produce the lowest survival value of 63,33%. Based on the juvenile quality analysis, it can be concluded that the use of Phronima as an alternative feed for seahorse juveniles H. barbouri can be given at a substitution rate of up to 75%.

Objective of the study was to differentiate the Administrative Districts of theTransbaikalTerritory at the time of Tick-borne viral encephalitis (TBVE) incidence recession by epidemiological risk groups and to characterize them by volume of specific and nonspecific preventive measures.

Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis of TBVE epidemiological situation is based on the statistical reporting data “Information on infectious and parasitic diseases” in 2009–2019 and other materials of the Rospotrebnadzor Administration in the Transbaikal Territory. The clustering of areas with various levels of epidemiological risk was conducted by calculation of 95 % confidential interval for long-term annual average of TBVE cases in municipal units of the Territory over a decade and assessment of appurtenance of the deviating values to the aggregate under study.

Results and discussion. Twenty four out of 32 districts of the Transbaikal Territory are endemic for TBVE. These areas are divided into five groups: with very high epidemiological risk (2 districts), high (5), medium (8), and low (8) risk respectively, as well as the administrative center of the constituent entity which by the whole complex of indicators (disease manifestation, population density, factors of targeted TBVE decrease, social-and-living and economical conditions) cannot be considered together with the rest of municipalities. Each group of the districts was characterized by the number of cases and TBVE incidence rates, medical aid seeking by persons who suffered from tick bites, vaccination volumes, seroprevention, areas of acaricide treatments. Recommendations are presented for the essential complex and scope of measures to prevent TBVE in the groups of administrative districts that differ by the level of epidemiological risk.

Objective. Construction of positive control samples based on recombinant retroviral particles and their application in RT-PCR diagnostic assays for RNA detection of agents of dangerous and particularly dangerous viral infections.

Materials and methods. Molecular biological, genetic engineering, and immunological methods were used: polymerase chain reaction, restriction, ligation, cloning, transformation, transfection, flow cytometry.

Results and discussion. Technology of positive control samples producing based on recombinant virions has been developed and tested. It includes construction of retroviral vector with cloned diagnostic sequence of the viral genome; obtaining a packaging cell line producing chimeric retroviral particles; determination of recombinant virions titer by flow cytometry and polymerase chain reaction; application of the obtained preparation as a control sample for PCR diagnostics of infectious agents. Positive controls based on retroviral vectors as carriers of genomic RNA fragments of pathogenic viruses were used in the development of PCR diagnostic kits for dangerous and particularly dangerous viral infections. Their application increased the kits quality and made it possible to exclude the work with concentrated hazardous infectious agents (Lassa virus, tick-borne encephalitis virus, lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, Puumala virus).
Search for Genetic Markers of Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus for Its Specific Indication, Genomic Analysis
Authors: Khammadov N. I.
Published: July 2020

Objective of the study is to analyze the genetic markers of tick-borne encephalitis virus, which can be used to specifically indicate the maximum number of virus strains and isolates.

Materials and methods. Plasmid DNA and nucleic acids of the tick, the genus Ixodes and Dermacentor, were used as amplified material. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was conducted on C1000 amplifier with a CFX96 optical unit (BioRad). The species (strain) variety of detected organisms, using the analyzed genetic markers, was determined in the nBLAST software utility. The design of the nucleotide sequences of primers and probes was performed using “Vector NTI 9.1.0” (Invitrogen Corporation). Nucleic acids were isolated by magnetic sorption with a reagent panel MAGNO-sorb. Primers and probes were synthesized at “Evrogen” company, Moscow, Russia. The reagents for PCR were manufactured by “Syntol” company, Moscow, Russia.

Results and discussion. When indicating the genome of the tick-borne encephalitis virus, the main criterion for choosing a marker sequence is the specific detection of nucleic acids of only the desired microorganism. The genomewide nucleotide sequences of various strains and isolates of tick-borne encephalitis virus were analyzed to search for a specific marker nucleotide sequence. Mutual comparison of all the above mentioned genomes made it possible to determine 7 conventionally conservative loci characterized by minimal nucleotide variability. The further work was based on the results of alignment of the nucleotide sequences of tick-borne encephalitis virus isolates, including the nucleotide sequences of heterogeneous microorganisms; primers and probes were designed to amplify each of the marker loci; the most analytically significant oligonucleotides were developed based on loci 4 and 7. Amplification with oligonucleotide primers to indicate tick-borne encephalitis virus was effective, both in a separate PCR with a positive control, and in combination with tick DNA.

Objective of the study was to assess the current epizootic settings along the border part of KharkhiraTurgensky natural plague focus betweenRussia andMongolia.

Materials and methods. Epizootiological survey covered 2715.5 km2. 213 samples of field material were tested (90 specimens of mammals, 102 specimens of ectoparasites, 17 samples of leftover food of predatory birds and dry skeletal remnants of marmots, 4 regurgitates of birds of prey). Laboratory works were carried out in “Microbiological laboratory for express diagnostics” mounted on the platform of the minibus “GAZelle”. Tests of field material were performed using immune-chromatographic (IC) assay and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR and IC positive samples were further investigated applying bacteriological method. Epizootiological surveyed deployed GIS instruments. All the results obtained were plotted on the electronic maps using QGIS 2.18.26 software.

Results and discussion. Capsular antigen (F1) of Yersinia pestis was detected in three (1.4 %) studied samples (n=213), DNA of plague microbe – in eight samples (3.7 %). Bacteriological investigation of positive samples revealed one sample (leftover food of predatory birds – Mongolian marmot) from which plague agent culture was isolated. The culture belonged to Y. pestis of the main subspecies. Geographical positioning of the epizootiological survey sites was conducted, as well as positive findings of immunological and molecular-genetic assays. Results of epizootiological survey are indicative of active phase of plague agent circulation (main subspecies) in Kharkhira-Turgensky natural focus in Mongolia.

Abstract. Detection of epidemiologically significant mosquitoes Ae. аlbopictus in the south of Russia (the Greater Sochi region, the Black Sea coast of Caucasus) suggested the possibility of their introduction into Crimea.

Objective was to determine the possibility of existence of epidemically significant vector – mosquito Ae. albopictus inCrimea.

Materials and methods. Within the frames of entomological monitoring, mosquitoes were collected during May-October, 2018 and May-September, 2019 in different regions of Crimea: Bakhchisaray, Dzhankoy, Razdolnensky, Saksky, Black Sea regions, urban areas ofSimferopol,Sevastopol and Feodosiya. Fully-grown mosquitoes were caught by automatic trap Mosquito Magnet Executive (USA) with octenol-based bait. Actively attacking females were collected with an aspirator by Gutsevich method. The survey was conducted in the evening and night hours. A total of 26 visits were made, 77 hours were spent, and 8463 mosquitoes (adult and larvae) were captured.

Results and discussion. During entomological monitoring of the territory of Crimean Peninsula for the first time bloodsucking mosquitoes Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse, 1895) were found. Given the favorable climatic conditions in Crimea, the trend towards global warming, the adaptation of mosquitoes to the periods of cold, biology of Aedes albopictus, the distribution of this species in the European part of southern Russia, the formation and dissemination of sustainably replicating vector population on the Crimea Peninsula is possible. To confirm the circulation of independent Ae. albopictus population inCrimea, not a random import of adult specimens who die in winter, further entomological surveys are required on a regular basis.
