Introduction: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) better known as Covid-19 is a new type of coronavirus that transmitted to humans. This virus is contagious quickly and has spread to almost all countries, including Indonesia, in just a few months. Public awareness and behavior are needed to prevent and control COVID-19.
Objective: This activity aimed to increase public knowledge and attitudes to actively participate in preventing and controlling the transmission of Covid 19.
Method: The implementation of this activity begins with the process of evaluating the level of knowledge and attitudes of PKK cadres regarding the prevention and control of Covid-19 by conducting a pre-test using a questionnaire. Then, the team provided education about the prevention and control of Covid-19 by using appropriate media. This activity was carried out using the transfer & sharing method of knowledge by using aids of audiovisual media and leaflets. Besides being open for discussion sessions, questions, and answers related to Covid-19.
Result: The results showed an increase in respondents' knowledge before and after education by as much as 47%, while the attitudes of respondents showed an increase before and after education by as much as 47%.
Conclusion: We concluded that providing education related to Covid 19 could increase people's knowledge and attitudes.
Classification and Percent Severity of Pechay Damage Caused by Cutworm (Spodoptera litura)
Authors: de Ocampo Anton Louise , Manalo Angelica , Silva Mary Jane , Villanueva April Kristine , Florendo Romel Brian
Published: October 2022

Agriculture is one of the most important sectors of any country, especially the Philippines. Pechay is the sixth-ranking crop for agricultural production in Batangas, according to the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA). However, pechay is constantly threatened by different pests, such as the occurrence of cutworm (Spodoptera litura), which primarily feeds on its leaves, stalks, and stems and even cuts off the plants that destroy the entire leaf in no time at all. Detection of the presence of pests at the earliest can help farmers to employ the necessary intervention to mitigate the spread of the infestation. This paper proposes a system that can classify whether pechay plants are healthy or damaged and assess the severity of the damage using image processing techniques and machine learning. Images of pechay plants are gathered and pre-processed to remove the background, resize, and enhance. Then statistical measures derived from GLCM (gray level co-occurrence matrix) are used with diagnostic feature explorer (DFE) to select the most appropriate features for the classification. The clustering to assess the severity of damage used k-means to segment the damaged areas from the entire leaf. The system can classify healthy and destroyed plants and grade the severity of damage with an accuracy of 88.31%.
Organoleptic and Physicochemical Characterization of Ethnic Smoked Pork Delicacy (Kinuday) Produced by the Ibaloy Indigenous People in Cordillera, Philippines
Authors: Garambas Cynthia , Luna Myrna Benita , Chua Consuelo
Published: October 2022

Descriptive sensory analysis was implemented to characterize 24- and 36-h smoked samples of pork delicacies (kinuday) native to the Ibaloy indigenous people in the Cordillera, Philippines. Twenty-four (24) English lexicons and their corresponding local terms were generated by eight trained panelists to describe kinuday samples. Characteristics of samples smoked for 24- and 36-h smoking duration in terms of color, texture, visual dryness, aroma, saltiness, and smoky flavor were compared. Smoking duration modifies the organoleptic characteristics of kinuday – particularly its uncooked outer skin and lean color, the cooked inner lean color, saltiness, and smoky flavor. When color is analyzed objectively, the color of skin, fat, and lean considering smoking duration as a factor is very distinct, distinct, and with a slight difference, respectively.
Safety Assessment of a Fungal-based Red Colorant Produced by Monascus purpureus MTCC 25436
Authors: Tambalo Fides Marciana , Garcia Jayson , Estrellana Cyrene
Published: October 2022

Pigment production by Monascus species for application to a wide array of food products has been explored in many countries. However, possible contamination with citrinin, a mycotoxin, has been a concern with different Monascus-based products leading to a regulated usage of the microbial food additive worldwide. In the Philippines, there is no known local large-scale producer of microbial pigments. A red colorant from Monascus purpureus MTCC 25436 was successfully produced and patented by the National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology–University of the Philippines Los Baños (NIMBB-UPLB). The produced colorant was subjected to various safety assessment tests to determine its safety for food applications. The AMES test determined that the product was not capable of inducing reverse mutations in Salmonella typhimurium mutant strains, and this non-mutagenicity of the colorant is further confirmed by the mammalian micronucleus test. Establishing the LD50 was done to determine the lethal dose of the colorant. No model animal died, even after feeding with the highest allowable experimental concentration. Based on the dermal sensitization test, the colorant was a very weak sensitizer. Lastly, detection of citrinin was done using high-performance liquid chromatography. According to the generated chromatograms, citrinin was at non-detectable levels. In conclusion, the colorant obtained from the local strain M. purpureus MTCC 25436 is safe for consumption. The results of the study can be used by the local regulating agencies as a baseline for possibly crafting regulations for the registration of microbial-derived food colorants, which the Philippines currently lacks.
Molecular Phylogeny of Three Unarmored Dinoflagellates from Masinloc Bay, Zambales, Central Luzon, with a Description of the Morphology of Gymnodinium catenatum H.W.Graham
Authors: Benico Garry , Azanza Rhodora
Published: October 2022

Unambiguous identification of unarmored dinoflagellates is important in distinguishing toxic from non-toxic species occurring in the coastal waters of the Philippines. In this study, molecular phylogeny inferred from rDNA sequences of Gymnodinium catenatum, Gymnodinium impudicum, and Akashiwo sanguinea – collected from Masinloc Bay, Zambales, Central Luzon – is reported for the first time. Morphology of G. catenatum was critically examined using light and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The three unarmored dinoflagellates were identified as G. catenatum, G. impudicum, and A. sanguinea based on their phylogenetic positions inferred from LSU and SSU rDNA. Both G. catenatum and G. impudicum grouped in a well-supported clade of Gymnodinium sensu stricto, which includes other genera of unarmored dinoflagellates, confirming the polyphyly of the clade. Akashiwo sanguinea separated into four subclades, which is similar to previous reports – with our strain grouping with sequences from Malaysia, Singapore, and China. Cellular characteristics of our G. catenatum are congruent with earlier reports particularly its long chain-forming habit (up to 64 cells) and large cell size (44.6–63.3 μm long). Our result is the first verified record of G. impudicum and A. sanguinea in the Philippines, and the first record of G. catenatum as another highly toxic dinoflagellate species occurring in Masinloc Bay.

Published: October 2022

This is the first report on hydrodynamic models to determine current and water residence time patterns for Matarinao and Murcielagos bays in the Philippines, which have a long history of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Field surveys were conducted in Matarinao Bay in April and August 2010 and in Murcielagos Bay in February 2011. Hydrodynamic models of the bays were developed, and spatially explicit water residence times were estimated from the models based on rates of concentration decrease of a tracer within the bay. Both bays exhibited two distinct areas – the mouth with faster current flow and low residence time, and the head area with slower current flow and higher residence time. During the southwest monsoon, the residence time at Matarinao Bay was 5 d longer than that during the northeast monsoon. Phytoplankton sampling in both bays confirmed blooms of Pyrodinium bahamense, but the spatial distribution did not consistently correlate with the simulated residence time patterns. While residence time plays a significant role in algal blooms, extraneous factors may also influence the distribution of phytoplankton within embayments.
Phylogenetic Study of Sargassum polycystum (Sargassaceae, Ochrophyta) in Eastern Samar, Philippines Based on the Nuclear rDNA Sequences
Authors: Dumilag Richard , Yap-Dejeto Leni , Fabillo Melodina , Sison-Mangus Marilou
Published: October 2022

Sargassum polycystum is an economically important seaweed endemic to Southeast Asian waters. Genetic diversity studies conducted for this alga have been based on samples from various areas in the Indo-Pacific region. Here, we examined the phylogenetic patterns of S. polycystum in Eastern Samar, Philippines using the nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA) region – including ITS1, 5.8S gene, and ITS2. The phylogenetic and haplotype analyses using these loci indicate that the Eastern Samar samples contain 13 haplotypes. Using the ITS2 region sequences alone (to include other Indo-Pacific samples), we found that the number of Eastern Samar haplotypes was reduced to six, with one common haplotype found in Singapore and Indonesia. Our findings indicate that the genetic diversity of Eastern Samar S. polycystum is substantially higher than previously suggested. Consistent with the previous hypothesis, the populations of S. polycystum in Southeast Asian waters indicate a range expansion. The study could extend our understanding of the genetic diversities of S. polycystum in the Philippines and elsewhere.
Diversity of Coastal Phytoplankton in Balayan Bay, Batangas, Philippines
Authors: Evangelista Luisito , Pascual Jhaydee Ann , Martinez-Goss Milagrosa
Published: October 2022

Phytoplankton composition, density, and their relation with 10 abiotic water parameters in six coastal stations [four marine (Anilao, San Luis, Calatagan, and Balayan) and two freshwater (Palanas and Pansipit)] in Balayan Bay, Batangas, Philippines were examined monthly for one year (February 2006–January 2007). A total of 97 taxa of phytoplankton in four phyla were observed. About 85% of these taxa were diatoms (Bacillariophyta). The mean monthly density of phytoplankton ranged from 2,367 (Pansipit Station) to 2,992 units · mL–1 (San Luis Station), with as much as 93% of the total phytoplankton density being made up of diatoms. Cyclotella meneghiniana, a centric diatom, had the highest mean monthly density (143 units · mL–1) in all the stations. Among the six stations, the marine stations generally showed higher phytoplankton density (maximum monthly value = 4,700 units · mL–1, Anilao, in January), species diversity index (maximum monthly value, H’ = 1.402, Balayan, in March), and species richness (maximum monthly value, 29, Balayan, in March) than the freshwater stations. Clear differences were also detected in the physico-chemical characteristics between the freshwater and marine stations. Among the 10 abiotic parameters monitored, mean monthly salinity ranged from 0.92–1.02 psu in freshwater stations and 29.1–32.6 psu in marine stations. Mean monthly water temperatures ranged from 23–33.5 °C and pH ranged from 7.87–8.23. Conductivity in the two freshwater stations ranged from 2,006.17–2,051.92 μS · cm–1 and was 45x of that of the marine stations, which ranged from 44.57–50.48 μS · cm–1. Generally, marine stations showed higher values of total solids, total dissolved solids, and total suspended solids than the freshwater stations. However, marine stations recorded greater water clarity than the freshwater stations (mean monthly depth of Secchi disc ranged from 1.68–3.65 m). Freshwater stations recorded higher mean monthly orthophosphate-P values but generally lower nitrate-N values than the marine stations. These values (1.65–4.31 ppm PO4-P or 0.29–1.41 ppm P; 2.58–5.35 ppm NO3-N or 0.428–1.509 ppm N) are within or near the Philippine standard value of 1.0 ppm for P and N for clean marine water. Changes in some of these abiotic parameters were correlated with changes in the population density of some of the dominant species, to total mean monthly phytoplankton density, species diversity index, and species richness in some of the stations, but no single parameter can explain the biological patterns observed for all stations. No algal bloom was observed during the course of this study, although a potentially harmful dinoflagellate, Ceratium furca, was observed. It was never a dominant alga in any of the stations.

Catastrophe aversion: social attitudes towards common fates
Authors: Rheinberger Christoph , Treich Nicolas
Published: October 2022

In light of climate change and other existential threats, policy commentators sometimes suggest that society should be more concerned about catastrophes. This document reflects on what is, or should be, society’s attitude toward such low-probability, high-impact events. The question underlying this analysis is how society considers (1) a major accident that leads to a large number of deaths; (2) a large number of small accidents that each kill one person, where the two situations lead to the same total number of deaths. We first explain how catastrophic risk can be conceived of as a spread in the distribution of losses, or a “more risky” distribution of risks. We then review studies from decision sciences, psychology, and behavioral economics that elicit people’s attitudes toward various social risks. This literature review finds more evidence against than in favor of catastrophe aversion. We address a number of possible behavioral explanations for these observations, then turn to social choice theory to examine how various social welfare functions handle catastrophic risk. We explain why catastrophe aversion may be in conflict with equity concerns and other-regarding preferences. Finally, we discuss current approaches to evaluate and regulate catastrophic risk, with a discussion of how it could be integrated into a benefit-cost analysis framework.
Fifty Years of Bangladesh-Japan Relations: Japan’s Contribution to the Freedom Struggle of Bangladesh
Authors:   Department of Political Science, University of Dhaka, Reza S. M. Ali
Published: October 2022

The year 2022 marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Bangladesh and Japan. Japan was one of the first countries to recognize Bangladesh officially, on 10 th February 1972, fewer than two months after the latter gained independence. This article investigates the great assistance that Japan extended to Bangladesh at this crucial juncture in its history, while also exploring several new insights into Japan’s contribution to the freedom struggle in 1971. The widespread support and cooperation of the Japanese people towards Bangladesh during its resistance against the Pakistan military were spontaneous and overwhelming. Many Japanese organizations, like the 'Japan-Bangladesh Friendship Association' (JBFA), the 'Bangladesh Solidarity Front' (BSF), and the Japan Red Cross Society (JRCS), made an immense contribution to Bangladesh's War of Liberation. Notable Japanese politicians and professionals, like Takashi Hayakawa (MP), Professor Tsuyoshi Nara, and Professor Setsurei Tsurushima, coordinated and strengthened their collective efforts to support Bangladesh. The Japanese press and media, like the Japan Times, Daily Yomiuri, and Asahi Shimbun, also played a very positive role in mobilizing public opinion in favor of the independence of Bangladesh. The Japanese government was sympathetic towards the defecting Bengali diplomats who left the Pakistani side and were in Japan under special permission from the Japanese government. Even the Japanese United Nations (UN) Mission came forward to sponsor or co-sponsor several resolutions supporting the means of Bangladesh. We earnestly hope that fifty years of bilateral relations will elevate into "heart- to-heart" relations, from a comprehensive partnership to a strategic partnership.

Critical Sociolinguistics Meets Curriculum Design
Authors: Mendez Seijas Jorge , Spino LeAnne
Published: October 2022

This manuscript describes a course for heritage speakers (HSs) of Spanish implemented at a large state university in the Northeast US. As has been reported, HSs face pervasive language-based discriminatory practices and attitudes within academic and societal contexts. To challenge this discrimination, heritage language (HL) education must provide students with knowledge and analytic tools to deconstruct denigrating language ideologies as well as some of the sociopolitical forces undergirding them. Doing so may help break the symbolic shackles of these ideologies and foster linguistic gains through the appreciation of linguistic variation. Critically-oriented HL courses looking to achieve this goal, however, are still scarce in the US. Hence, this work aims to contribute to ongoing discussions of how to design this type of course by presenting the rationale behind this new curriculum and making explicit connections between critical sociolinguistics research and the content and tasks of each course unit. Unlike other HL courses whose critical component is an add-on to more traditional linguistic and cultural content, this course makes demystifying language ideologies its main driving force.
Die religiöse Gemeinde als organisationaler Akteur. Das Wachstum der „Megakirchen“ in den USA
Authors: Kern Thomas , Pruisken Insa , Schimank Uwe
Published: October 2022

Der Beitrag führt das Größenwachstum der Megakirchen in den USA auf eine neuartige Verzahnung zwischen Gesellschafts-, Organisationsund Interaktionsebene zurück. Auf der Grundlage eines Vergleiches von vier US-amerikanischen Gemeinden - davon drei Megakirchen - identifizieren wir vier von den Gemeindeleitungen strategisch eingesetzte Wirkkräfte des Wachstums: Die ersten beiden Wirkkräfte beschreiben unspezifische Bedingungen für Wachstum, die sich auf die Akteurwerdung der Gemeinden beziehen und insofern auch für andere Organisationen gelten. (1) Mit der Umstellung auf Zweckprogrammierung lösen sich die Megakirchen von der Denomination. Konditionalprogramme werden zunehmend durch Zweckprogramme ersetzt (oder ergänzt). (2) Organisationsstrukturen werden auf der Basis von präferenzbasierten Standards evaluiert. Die Angebote der Gemeinden werden auf diese Weise - über Denominationsgrenzen hinweg - vergleichbar gemacht. Die weiteren beiden Wirkkräfte sind spezifische Bedingungen für das Wachstum der Megakirchen: (3) Wachsende Gemeinden bilden an ihrer Peripherie eine breite Zone der populären Kultur aus. Durch organisierte Events werden so viele Personen wie möglich in die Gemeinde integriert. (4) Der Modus der Einbindung von Mitgliedern verschiebt sich von der Identifikation mit der Denomination auf das Angebot einer Vielzahl an Leistungen zur Förderung der persönlichen Spiritualität. Über Angebote zur methodischen Selbstperfektionierung wachsen die Mitglieder aber nicht nur spirituell, sondern werden systematisch immer stärker in die Organisation eingebunden.

Gettier Cases, Mimicking, and Virtue Reliabilism
Authors: Khalaj M. Hosein M.A. ,   Romanian Academy - Iasi Branch
Published: October 2022

It has been argued that virtue reliabilism faces difficulties in explaining why the “because-of” relation between true belief and the relevant competence is absent in Gettier cases. However, prominent proponents of this view such as Sosa and Turri suggest that these difficulties can be overcome by invoking the manifestation relation. In his Judgment and Agency, Sosa supports this claim based on an analogy between Gettier cases and what in the literature on dispositions is called mimic cases. While there are initial motivations for the alleged analogy, I claim there are at least two arguments against it: 1. there is an asymmetry in the nature of context-sensitivity between the problem of mimicking and the Gettier problem; 2. while causal deviance and double luck can be found in both the mimic case and the Gettier case, their causal processes are different in important respects, making it challenging to see them as both falling under the same category. If these arguments are on the right track, the upshot is that virtue reliablists such as Sosa and Turri who describe the “because-of” relation in terms of the manifestation relation still owe us an account of why the manifestation relation is absent in Gettier cases.

As Unidades de Conservação são um instrumento da Política Nacional de Meio Ambiente que determinou a criação de espaços para a proteção e a garantia do equilíbrio ecossistêmico no território brasileiro. A Área de Proteção Ambiental (APA) do rio Uberaba é uma Unidade de Conservação criada com o objetivo de garantir a qualidade das águas do rio Uberaba, sendo este o manancial de abastecimento público da cidade de Uberaba - MG. É caracterizada como uma unidade de conservação de uso sustentável, e algumas atividades altamente impactantes vêm sendo realizadas na sua área, com isso, causando diversas alterações no meio, tais como erosão, eutrofização de cursos d’água e alterações na qualidade e quantidade de água. O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar as perdas de solo e diagnosticar as áreas com potencial natural de erosão (PNE) utilizando a Equação Universal de Perda de Solo (EUPS), o Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) e os produtos de sensoriamento remoto. O PNE apresentou valores baixos (<100 t ha-1 ano-1) em 38,72% da APA, médios (100-200 t ha-1 ano-1) em 31,29% e os valores alto (200-600 t ha-1 ano-1), muito altos (600 -1000 t ha-1 ano-1) e extremamente altos (>1.000 t ha-1 ano-1) totalizaram 29,99% da APA. As estimativas de perda de solo pela erosão hídrica com valores abaixo de 5 t ha-1 ano-1 representam 43,81% da APA. Estimativas de perdas entre 5-10 t ha-1 ano-1 ocorrem em 12,22% da área, de 10-20 t ha-1 ano-1 em 21,82%, entre 20-50 t ha-1 ano-1 em 17,89%, 50-100 t ha-1 ano-1 em 3,92% e perdas superiores a 100 t ha-1 ano-1 em 0,34% da APA. O uso das geotecnologias e da Equação Universal de Perda de Solo possibilitou identificar espacialmente os locais em que ocorrem os maiores e os menores potenciais riscos de erosão, o que permitiu estimar as taxas de perda de solo ao longo da APA do rio Uberaba.
relações de poder entre as crianças: estado da arte a partir das pesquisas produzidas no Brasil, no período de 2000 a 2019
Authors: Costa Rebeka Rodrigues Alves da , Frota Ana Maria Coelho Monte
Published: October 2022

O presente trabalho buscou fazer uma síntese do conhecimento produzido no Brasil sobre o tema das relações de poder entre as crianças, com base na análise bibliográfica das dissertações e teses defendidas nos programas de pós-graduação do país e disponíveis na Biblioteca Digital Brasileira de Teses e Dissertações (BDTD), dos artigos publicados no portal de periódicos da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) e dos pôsteres e trabalhos apresentados na Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação (ANPEd), no grupo de trabalho sobre educação de crianças de 0 a 6 anos (GT07), no período de 2000 a 2019. Foi possível concluir que as relações sociais das crianças são atravessadas por desigualdades sociais, econômicas e questões de gênero que, por sua vez, produzem comportamentos e falas infantis que expressam relações de poder na infância. Tanto a família como a escola configuraram-se, a partir da análise dos textos supracitados, como espaços de reprodução de estereótipos e preconceitos, bem como lugar de resistência e transformação. A temática das relações de poder entre as crianças ainda é pouco explorada no país e o número de trabalhos acadêmicos que relacionam as relações de poder às interações que se estabelecem entre as crianças é muito pequeno, se considerarmos a quantidade de pesquisas realizadas no âmbito da educação.

The aim of this study was to investigate biofilm formation with kefir grains in the presence of soy extract. Kefir grains and soy germs at different concentrations were grown in the culture medium comprising brown sugar solution (40 gl-1) for 20 days. Biofilms that formed in this period were then removed and the pH of the culture medium were measured. Isoflavones of the medium of culture were extracted and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The superficial properties of the selected biofilms were analyzed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The culture medium after 20 days was found to have 19.59±3.57 µgl-1 of glycitein and 23.86±2.21 µgl-1 of genistein. The best concentration of kefir grains in order to extract isoflavone was 40 gl-1, with yield levels at 11.67 µgl-1 of glycitein and 17.78 µgl-1 of genistein. The analysis by AFM and SEM confirmed the increased roughness of the biofilm, dependent of the concentration of the amount of kefir grains. It is suggested that the biofilms incorporated the isoflavones and has potential for therapeutic applications in several pathologies wherein it is necessary the antioxidative processes.

Background: The incidence and survival of colorectal cancer (CRC) are increasing. There is an increasing number of long-term survivors, many of whom are elderly and have comorbidities. We conducted a population-based study in Hong Kong to assess the long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) incidence associated with adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy among CRC survivors. Patients and Methods: Using the population-based electronic medical database of Hong Kong, we identified adults who were diagnosed with high-risk stage II–III CRC and treated with radical surgery followed by adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy between 2010 and 2019. We evaluated the cause-specific cumulative incidence of CVD (including ischemic heart disease, heart failure, cardiomyopathy, and stroke) using the flexible parametric competing risk modeling framework. The control group without a history of CVD was selected from among a noncancer random sample from primary care clinics in the same geographic area. Results: We analyzed 1,037 treated patients with CRC and 5,078 noncancer controls. The adjusted cause-specific hazard ratio (HR) for CVD in the cancer cohort compared with the control group was 2.11 (95% CI, 1.39–3.20). The 1-, 5-, and 10-year cause-specific cumulative incidences were 2.0%, 4.5%, and 5.4% in the cancer cohort versus 1.2%, 3.0%, and 3.8% in the control group, respectively. Age at cancer diagnosis (HR per 5-year increase, 1.16; 95% CI, 1.08–1.24), male sex (HR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.06–1.86), comorbidity (HR, 1.88; 95% CI, 1.36–2.61 for 1 comorbidity vs none, and HR, 6.61; 95% CI, 4.55–9.60 for ≥2 comorbidities vs none), diabetes (HR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.04–1.84), hypertension (HR, 3.27; 95% CI, 2.39–4.50), and dyslipidemia/hyperlipidemia (HR, 2.53; 95% CI, 1.68–3.81) were associated with incident CVD. Conclusions: Exposure to adjuvant fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy was associated with an increased risk of CVD among survivors of high-risk stage II–III CRC. Cardiovascular risk monitoring of this group throughout cancer survivorship is advisable.
