ANTIBIOFILM AND IN VITRO CYTOTOXIC ACTIVITY OF PIGMENT EXTRACTED FROM MARINE BACTERIA Kocuria flava (AP2)
Authors: RAJENDRAN ISHWARYA , JAYAKUMAR THARANI , MANI GEETHA , DHAYALAN SANGEETHA
Published: November 2022

Natural pigments can be obtained from various sources like plant, microorganisms, and marine algae because synthetic pigments have some toxicity issues and are carcinogenic to both products and workers. Therefore, it is thought that bacterial pigment is a crucial metabolic product beneficial to bacteria and may possess certain biological features like antioxidant, antibacterial, and anticancer activity. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the antibiofilm and anticancer activities of crude pigment extract from a marine bacterial isolate. The Antibiofilm assay was studied by the 96-well plate method. The pigment from K. flava (AP2) has the ability to inhibit biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Serratia marcescens, Enterobacter sp, Enterococcus faecalis, and Escherichia coli. The optical density at 570 nm wavelength on a plate reader to quantify the overall bacterial growth in each well. Among the six strains, moderate biofilm inhibition were observed at 2.5 µg/ml. In-vitro anticancer activity of bacterial pigment extract was evaluated by MTT assay against human colon cancer (HT-29). As a result of the pigments' strong cytotoxic action, they could be employed as biological agents in medicine.

جهود الخليفة العباسي المقتفي لأمرالله في التخلص من السيطرة السلجوقية
Authors: المحاقري إيمان أحمد محمد
Published: November 2022

يتناول هذا البحث موضوع دور وجهود الخليفة المقتفي لأمرالله العباسي في التخلص من السيطرة السلجوقية؛ فقد أخذ هذا الخليفة على عاتقه مهمة التخلص منهم، وخاصة بعد علمه بأنهم السبب في قتل الخلفاء السابقين له؛ فقد أصبحوا هم المسيطرين على بغداد وأمر الخلافة بها، حتى أصبح لهم الأمر في تعيين أو عزل الخليفة، فقد كانوا يولون الخليفة الذي يكون تحت سيطرتهم، وإذا ماحاول خليفة الخروج  عن طاعتهم سلطوا عليه من يقتله، أو يعزله، أو يطرده، كما أنهم تمادوا وتسلطوا، حتى لم يكن للخليفة سوى الخطبة، لهذا عندما تولي المقتفي لأمرالله الخلافة قررالتخلص منهم والخروج من تحت سيطرتهم، ولكنه انتظر الفرصة المناسبه لذلك، وخطط للتخلص منهم وفق خطة مدروسة بتكوين جيش خاص به، واستعان بالصبر،واستفاد من أخطاء الخلفاء السابقين له، وتجنب الوقوع فيها كي لايُقتل مثلهم، واستطاع بسياسته هذه وصبره التخلص منهم بعد أن دخل معهم في مواجهات عسكرية، وانتهت آخر مواجهة بينهم بانتصار الخليفة عليهم، وبذلك تخلص منهم، حيث أعتبرهو الخليفة الوحيد الذي استطاع التخلص من السيطرة السلجوقية، فبعد ما أصبح السلاجقة هم المسيطرين على بغداد وأمر الخلافة أعاد الخليفة المقتفي لأمر الله هيبة وقوة الخلافة إلى ما كانت عليه في السابق، كما أنه سهل الطريق  لباقي الخلفاء الذين جاؤوا من بعده للتخلص نهائياً من السلاجقة.

Impact of Processing Stages and Additives on the Structural Quality of Cornstarch Bihon-Type Noodles
Authors: Azanza Maria Patricia , Alejandro Celina Bianca , Jim Jamielou , Katigbak Samantha Kathryna
Published: November 2022

The study evaluated the structural changes in cornstarch-based bihon-type noodles formulated with xanthan gum (XG), rice flour (RF), palm olein (PO), and salt as adjunct ingredients at different processing stages that included: pre-gelatinization of starch binder, dough formation, manual extrusion, cooking by boiling, cold-shocking, and drying. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), light microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were utilized to monitor the structural changes. SEM results showed denser, flakier binder of the cornstarch xanthan gum rice flour noodle (CSXRFN) compared to cornstarch noodle (CSN) and cornstarch xanthan gum noodle (CSXN). The formation of spherulites as dense, hard, and brittle structures in dried noodles was also documented in SEM. Light microscopy indicated that CSN was less dense in structure and more prone to breakage, forming a hollow center in its dried noodle form, which was not established in noodles with XG and RF. DSC results showed endothermic thermograms. The DSC results of cooked samples were explained based on rehydration uptake mechanisms of the cooked samples and not gelatinization.
Balance y liquidación de la fenomenología en el Perú durante el siglo XX
Authors: Villanueva Barreto Jaime
Published: November 2022

Este artículo tiene un doble propósito. Por un lado, realizar un balance de la recepción, temas y problemas que ocuparon a los filósofos peruanos que se interesaron por la fenomenología de Edmund Husserl durante el siglo XX, con la finalidad de señalar las continuidades y rupturas que han ido conformando nuestra incipiente tradición fenomenológica. Por el otro lado, realizar un necesario ajuste de cuentas con esa tradición a fin de abrir las perspectivas de nuevas líneas de investigación en la fenomenología husserliana, es decir, reapropiarnos de ella para establecer los necesarios vasos comunicantes que nos permitan instituirnos como una comunidad.
Filosofía y fenomenología en Chile
Authors: Muñoz Pérez Enrique
Published: November 2022

El artículo busca mostrar que existe un grupo de filósofos y una filósofa en Chile que recepcionaron, tradujeron y explicaron la fenomenología de una manera más bien histórico-filológica que sistemático-problemática. Esta situación se explica, por varias razones, porque efectivamente estaban accediendo a un pensar que no tenía una larga tradición; que esas reflexiones fueron planteadas en textos originalmente en idioma alemán, lo que exigía múltiples esfuerzos de traducción; pero que también se debe a un modo de hacer filosofía en Chile, más bien centrado en un canon filosófico, que en el desarrollo del pensamiento propio y original.
Education 4.0. infusion into asynchronous teaching during a pandemic: A mixed-methods study of in-service TVET teachers in a Caribbean higher education context
Authors: Ferdinand-James Debra
Published: November 2022

The fourth industrial revolution or Industry 4.0. and its resulting shift to Education 4.0. (Ed. 4.0) coupled with the COVID-19 global pandemic catalyzed the education system into emergency remote teaching (ERT). As a teacher educator, the author created an Ed. 4.0. Webquest learning activity for her in-service TVET teachers for modelling asynchronous teaching during the global pandemic. They were required to create a group webquest and infuse Education 4.0. critical characteristics for teaching asynchronously, in response to parents’ calls for more asynchronous sessions in the interest of students’ wellbeing during COVID-19 pandemic. These critical Education 4.0. characteristics include innovation and creativity; digital skills development; and global citizenship. The purpose of this case study is to describe the Ed. 4.0. characteristics TVET teachers infused into their Webquests in a Caribbean higher education context and their perceived readiness for Education 4.0. A Convergent Parallel Mixed Methods design was used for gaining a deeper understanding of the central phenomenon of infusion of Ed. 4.0. into TVET and feelings of readiness for ED. 4.0. The study results revealed that teachers infused all eight Ed. 4.0. characteristics into planned asynchronous teaching. However, only 5 (33%) out of the 15 (100%) teachers felt some level of readiness for Ed. 4.0. In conclusion, the study results suggest that more emphasis is needed  on professional development for teachers’ readiness for Ed. 4.0. The study implications signal that TVET teachers are preparing their secondary school students for life and work in an era of Industry 4.0. and a pandemic.

As technology advances, every industrial sector has continued to innovate and scale. Several property technologies have fast-tracked nominal developments and accelerated growth in the Real Estate market. Real Estate markets in developing countries have endured challenges and issues emanating from various areas such as management, trust, sales, and infotech, many more. This paper aims to implement a model of the online Real Estate Service system via a responsive web application using data analytics and visualization techniques that show insights and improve decision making based on user data. This implementation includes backend clustering and Regression algorithms to produce insights based on available test data of over 62 PropTech firms in Nigeria, thus helping clients, managers, and agents make critical decisions to accelerate organizational growth. The model was developed by analyzing the impact of data growth in the online Real Estate service system, hinging on the study of earlier literature and data from over 7000 PropTech firms. The research adopted a questionnaire and validation method to understand the main domains to focus on, including property search, Agent trustworthiness, and capabilities. The findings presented here include use cases of the application that provides comprehensive solutions with the system feature providing solutions for deeper property search, minimizing the danger of being scammed and making it easier to acquire properties with specific criteria and to easily contact verified agent based on individual needs of the client and agents track record. Test findings reveal that more data introduced to the system will make it more efficient since the threshold of each level adapts based on data inputted in a dynamic cluster.
Referencing and transformation in Sarah Kane’s Blasted
Authors: Beh Emmerencia Sih
Published: November 2022

Sarah Kane’s Blasted, published in 1995, starts as a conventional familiar piece but progresses to dreadful cruelty and violence. This play was considered by most critics as an attention-pursuing adolescent play whose plot does not substantiate the extent and grade of violence the viewer/reader is required to sustain. The play was only taken seriously after the Royal Court Theatre did a premiere of it and it aggravated a serious explosion of hatred. The harsh critical responses of this play and two others published after it pushed Kane to publish her fourth play, Crave under a pseudonym, hoping to get a fair judgment and analysis. Sarah Kane’s body of work connects extensively to what Aleks Sierz calls in-yer-face theatre. Her use of referencing, transformational and experimental devices is an indicator that age is not, and shouldn’t be a barrier for literary creativity. As such, Kane’s plays should be taken seriously irrespective of the age at which they were written. The purpose of this article is to do an intertextual reading of Sarah Kane’s Blasted to assess how texts can be interrelated with one another. Incorporating the ideas, styles, texts, theories, and history of writers from Britain and other parts of the world to build up her ideas and style is one of the factors that make her plays interesting and worth reading. In its conclusion, the paper demonstrates that Kane’s first play, Blasted, was seriously influenced by history and the writings of Beckett, Artaud, and Baker.
A comparative study of Kikuyu Proverbs and its English equivalents on the role and position of women: A Natural Semantic Metalanguage perspective
Authors: Gichohi Stella Nyanjugu , Subiyanto Agus
Published: November 2022

Proverbs are part of any culture. They are symbolic as they carry the cultural wisdom and heritage of any community. Studies in the past have shown that proverbs just like other oral traditions help in the construction of identities and ideologies. Such identities and ideologies are as in gender, the roles of those genders and stereotypes alike. Kikuyu proverbs, particularly those on the role and position of women are no different. They are carriers of meaning. Kikuyu proverbs, just like many other proverbs, can be translated to other languages and their equivalents are provided as well. This paper studies selected Kikuyu proverbs about women and their English equivalent. The aim is to investigate whether the Kikuyu and their English equivalent proverbs have a similar semantic structure. The study also makes a comparison of the cultural themes. This study was premised on the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) approach by Anna Wierzbicka (1996) and Cliff Goddard (2002). Data for the analysis were collected from both oral and written sources. From the collected proverbs, 10 were selected for analysis. The analysis involved semantic explication of proverb texts using the five-part semantic template for proverbs analysis: ‘traditionality’, ‘recurrent situation’, ‘advice’, ‘analogy’, and ‘status as folk wisdom’ as proposed by Goddard. The finding was that the selected Kikuyu proverbs did not have a similar semantic structure to their English equivalent. The proverbs lacked elements such as ‘advice’ or ‘analogy’ when compared alongside. There was also a difference in their cultural themes.

Non-Encapsulated Trichinella Species: T. pseudo spiralis, T. papuae and T. zimbawensis
Authors: Sharma Devyani , Kaur Upninder , Sehgal Rakesh
Published: November 2022

Trichinellosis is a meat-borne zoonotic disease caused by nematode worms of the genus Trichinella in humans. Sylvatic animals are the main reservoir hosts of this helminth but domesticated animals, mainly swine, can also acquire the infection when they are fed with scraps of game meat. The genus used to have only one species; however, it has subsequently evolved into a multispecies genus. Due to its broad host range, it has been able to establish itself in both domestic and sylvatic cycles, allowing it to maintain a vast host reservoir. Infection has been documented in a variety of experimental species, showing that it could potentially happen in natural settings as well. Due to the considerable genetic differences among the isolates, researchers predict that the number of species and genotypes discovered within Trichinella will increase. Outbreaks caused by various species in different parts of the world have also been reported therefore prevention and control are critical in order to limit the parasite’s transmission to humans. Although molecular methods are used to identify the Trichinella species but these methods are not appropriate for the diagnosis of the infection in animals.
Importance of Monitoring the Peripartal Period to Increase Reproductive Performance in Dairy Cattle
Authors: Szenci Ottó
Published: November 2022

Parallel with the successful genetic selection for higher milk production in Holstein-Friesian cows, a dramatic decline in fertility rates has been observed around the world. Therefore, to achieve an optimum herd reproductive performance, we must focus on the first 100 days postpartum. During and after calving, a cow overcomes a series of physiological hurdles before becoming pregnant. By selecting accurate diagnostic devices and/or methods, such as predicting the onset of calving, monitoring activity and rumination time to determine cows for early treatment of clinical metritis and/or metabolic diseases, long-term measurement of reticuloruminal pH to monitor subclinical acidosis, perform metabolic profile tests to diagnose subclinical metabolic diseases at the herd level, estrous detectors and/or detection aids, on-farm/in-line P4 test to monitor specific events in the postpartum periods, diagnosis of early pregnancy and pregnancy loss using ultrasonography to correctly identify problems and their potential causes to enable these issues are to be rectified. Despite higher milk production, acceptable fertility results can be achieved, even on large-scale dairy farms, if the impacts of the above factors that contribute to reduced fertility can be moderated. The advantages and disadvantages of the different diagnostic methods are discussed to help the dairy select the most accurate method.
Perspective Chapter: Deep Reinforcement Learning for Co-Resident Attack Mitigation in The Cloud
Authors: Cui Suxia , Homsi Soamar
Published: November 2022

Cloud computing brings convenience and cost efficiency to users, but multiplexing virtual machines (VMs) on a single physical machine (PM) results in various cybersecurity risks. For example, a co-resident attack could occur when malicious VMs use shared resources on the hosting PM to control or gain unauthorized access to other benign VMs. Most task schedulers do not contribute to both resource management and risk control. This article studies how to minimize the co-resident risks while optimizing the VM completion time through designing efficient VM allocation policies. A zero-trust threat model is defined with a set of co-resident risk mitigation parameters to support this argument and assume that all VMs are malicious. In order to reduce the chances of co-residency, deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is adopted to decide the VM allocation strategy. An effective cost function is developed to guide the reinforcement learning (RL) policy training. Compared with other traditional scheduling paradigms, the proposed system achieves plausible mitigation of co-resident attacks with a relatively small VM slowdown ratio.

Dental traumatology is highlighted as an unexpected emergency event which can occur at any moment, age, sex, and gender. Crown fractures account for most traumatic injuries occurring in the permanent dentition. A complete radiographic examination is considered essential in order to assess the state of the pulp, the degree of root development, and the existence of any pathologies affecting the supporting tissues. These examinations also provide a useful tool for subsequent comparisons with those conducted after treatment, ensuring adequate clinical follow-up. Additionally, avulsion of permanent teeth has been highlighted as one of the most relevant dental injuries; therefore, the prognosis of this traumatic event has been directly related to the treatment decision-making process and the time passed since the accident. In addition, dental trauma is also one of the most frequent emergency situations seen in Pediatric Dentistry; moreover, the dental injury of the temporary teeth could also affect to the permanent teeth; hence, it is necessary to perform an exhaustive clinical and radio diagnostic exam to allow a correct diagnosis and a predictable treatment plan. Therefore, the creation of action protocols makes it possible to simplify and facilitate decision-making under stressful situations for patients and clinicians.
Emotional Intelligence and Its Role as a Protective Factor against Symbolic Gender Violence in Peruvian Women
Authors: Rodríguez-Espartal Noelia , Ramírez Meneses Daniela
Published: November 2022

This chapter presents the results of an investigation that aimed to identify the manifestations of symbolic gender violence and its relationship with emotional intelligence, as a protective factor against it, in 225 women from Metropolitan Lima and Callao (Peru). For this, a quantitative methodology research was carried out, which allowed exploring the relationship between the subdimensions of both variables. The results indicate that higher levels of emotional intelligence, specifically the dimension of emotional perception, present an inverse relationship with the dimensions of symbolic violence, acting as a protector against this type of gender violence against women. Likewise, differences were found in all the sociodemographic variables analyzed. These results are encouraging for the approach, prevention, and intervention of gender violence, in a country in which it is very present.
Wettability of Probiotic Powders: Fundamentals, Methodologies, and Applications
Authors: Amin Ali Mohamed , De Coninck Joël , L. Razafindralambo Hary
Published: November 2022

Wettability is a macroscopic consequence of microscopic phenomena occurring at the fluid-solid interfaces. This functional property is crucial for the formulation of wettable powders in food and non-food sectors. Basically, powder wettability is mostly assessed through the contact angle measurements of solid particles reacting with dispersing media, by either the sessile drop method or the capillary rise technique. Among the most popular bioactive agents nowadays are probiotics and their metabolites, which are receiving a growing interest for their beneficial effects on our ecosystem health. As live functional ingredients, probiotics are mainly available in a powder form that is sensitive to the environmental stress factors during processing and storage steps. It is therefore crucial to understand and control their wettability, regarding their performance, dispersibility, and stability when probiotic particles come into contact with dispersing media and body fluids. The proposal chapter aims to review: (1) the theoretical aspects of powder wettability by considering compact and porous materials; (2) the analytical tools and methodologies of measurement, including sessile drop and capillary rise methods using models Lucas-Washburn equation and Darcy\'s law; and (3) the applications to probiotic powders as functional ingredients in food and agricultural sectors.

Authors: Delaram Behnaz , Mokari Faezeh , Gholizadeh Mostafa , Absalan Yahya
Published: November 2022

Titanium is one of the most attractive elements, due to its unique advantages such as stability, recyclability, activity under light absorption, cheapness, and safety. The special characteristics of titanium include different oxidation states, high coordination number of Ti4+, and the ability to form strong bonds with oxygen and different ligands, making it a good candidate for the construction of the new composite named metal–organic framework or briefly MOF. MOFs are composites that have opened a new window toward the scientific world due to their special structure that makes them have some properties, including the highest surface activity, high porosity, tunable pore, and high flexibility in design that make them useful in different applications, such as gas storage and separation, liquid separation and purification, electrochemical energy storage, catalysis, and sensing. Titanium, due to the mentioned properties, has been used as a node in the structure of different MOFs and applied in different fields.
Personality Traits in Children of Alcoholic Parents

Published: November 2022

Children of alcoholics (COAs) are children who have grown up in families in which either one or both parents are alcoholic. The interplay of several factors such as environmental, cognitive, and genetic vulnerability has been linked to the psychopathology among COAs. The age of elementary school years, i.e., from 6 or 7–15 years of age, is known as the latency developmental period of children, but this phase of development does not apply to COAs, as they are constantly under stress which hinders their self-development. COAs suffer from direct physical, verbal, emotional, and sexual abuse from their alcoholic parent. There is a high need to address the stress to children of persons with substance abuse. Early detection of psychiatric morbidities in such children and appropriate intervention can produce beneficial changes in such children.
The Rise and Fall of the NGOs in Bangladesh: What Does the Future Hold?
Authors: Baser Shahadat , Abu Hasnath Syed
Published: November 2022

This chapter introduces Bangladesh’s national and international NGOs, followed by an evaluation of some leading NGOs’ roles in alleviating poverty of the economically vulnerable population, particularly women and children. The NGOs address these concerns through microcredit programs, nonformal education, and primary healthcare, creating employment opportunities, promoting participation in asset-building, and grassroots advocacy programs as catalysts for policy action. However, recently, NGOs have faced challenges that tend to diminish their role due to donors’ declining funds and growing government restrictions. Therefore, the chapter suggests that NGOs, in their engagement with a leadership position, survive the present economic and political challenges—and continue to help the people left behind and exploited—through social enterprises and more commitment.

Authors: Inner Burak , Küçük Serdar
Published: November 2022

In this chapter, a dexterous workspace optimization is performed for ten different types of 6-Degrees-Of-Freedom (DOF) General Stewart-Gough Platforms (GSPs). The optimization aims to find the optimum radius of the circumferential circle and separation angles between adjacent vertices of base and moving platforms in order to maximize both the dexterities and workspaces of the manipulators subject to geometric constraints. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), increasingly being applied to engineering applications, is used as the optimization algorithm. Finally, the optimization results for ten different types of 6-DOF GSPs are compared to each other in terms of kinematic performances.

Published: November 2022

Children and adolescents with a neurodevelopmental disorder experience vulnerabilities and coping deficits that contribute to the likelihood of developing co-occurring anxiety disorders. The development of anxiety disorders, including social anxiety disorder, is very often reported in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) has strong evidentiary support both in combination with medication and as a stand-alone treatment for anxiety disorders in general and more specifically for phobic-type anxiety in children, adolescents, and adults. Moreover, specific manualized CBT is an evidentiarily sound method for treating anxiety in children and adolescents with ASD.
