Authors: Reddy Narahari Srinivas , Raju Akondi Butchi
Published: May 2018

Gossypium herbaceum commonly known as cotton plant cultivated world over and the main produce is used by the textile industries. Other parts of this plant including leaves can also be explored for their best utilization, hence in this direction we have evaluated efficacy of cotton plant leaf extract against an inflammatory condition i.e rheumatoid arthritis. Freund’s complete adjuvant (FCA) induced arthritis model was selected for this study and. All the rats received treatments of plant extract from 10th day of the induction of arthritis and continued up to 28 days of the study. Once in every 7 days, the arthritic assessments i.e. paw volume; body weight and paw erythema were assessed. Arthritic rats showed severe paw swelling, erythema, reduced body weight, abnormal changes in haematological, biochemical and antioxidant parameters (p less than 0.05) compared with normal control. Studies showed that treatment with MEGH (200mg/kg) was effective in reversing the symptoms and restore the normalcy by restoring the elevated parameters. Over all the plant proved useful in treating Rheumatoid Arthritis in rodents and further studies in this direction are necessary to understand its mechanism.

Published: May 2018

Five pedons (P) were evaluated for their suitability to maize as alternate crop for the existing dominant rice crop at water scarce condition by variation in physiography, parent materials, and soil nutrients in Ponnaniyar basin. The pedons had the parent materials of non-calcareous gneiss with feldspar (P1), granite and feldspar intermingled (P2), weathered gneiss (P3), weathered quartz and felspatic gneiss (P4) and gneiss with lime (P5) with soil orders of Vertisol (P3, P5), Inceptisol (P1, P2) and Alfisol (P4). The soils were low, medium and high in available N, P and K status respectively. Based on the soil analytical report suitability of maize was established. Kunnatur, Eliyattur and Tiruchengodu series are moderately suitable (S2) for maize cultivation. Whereas, Manapparai and Pilamedu series are highly suitable (S1) for maize cultivation. Also, based on the soil fertility data, the map was generated using-the software Arc GIS 10.1 with the help of GPS information for future reference.

Published: May 2018

Birds play a crucial role in many food webs of aquatic ecosystem and the birds are known as good ‘bio-indicators’ as they are very sensitive to minor environmental changes. The present study was carried out in Purbasthali bird sanctuary of West Bengal (India) and its surroundings from January 2016 to December 2016 to explore the current status and diversity of avian fauna. The point count and line transect methods were implemented in bird counting. A total of 86 species of birds belonging to 31 families were recorded from the study area. Anatidae and Ardeidae were the dominant families with highest relative diversity. Residential status, IUCN Red list status and Relative abundance of bird species were also considered. Different diversity indices were also calculated. Purbasthali bird sanctuary supports a huge amount of bird diversity. So continuous monitoring of avian fauna and health condition of the ecosystem by local or state levels on taking integrated management programs will helpful to maintain a sustainable development of the habitat.

Authors: Reddy A Nagarjuna , Seshiah Ch Venkata , Sudhakar K , Kumar D Srinivasa , Reddy P. Ravi Kanth
Published: May 2018

The objective of the present study was to determine the effect of the duration of the dry period (DP) on milk yield, milk composition, and reproductive performance of Murrah buffaloes in the subsequent lactation. High yielding Murrah buffaloes (n=48) were assigned to either shortened (30 to 45 d (n=16); and 45 to 60 d (n=16)) or traditional (>60 days (n=16)) dry period lengths. The buffaloes were fed individually according to the production status. The buffaloes in >60, 45 and 30 d dry period groups had similar (P>0.05) milk yield, 6% Fat corrected milk (FCM), milk fat, and total solids; however, the former groups had an increased (P less then 0.05) 6% FCM yield change, and SNF percentage of milk. The mean service period (days) was least (P less then0.05) with the higher number of services required for conception in buffaloes allocated to traditional dry period length compared to those assigned to shortened dry periods. Further, 6% FCM had a negative correlation with Serum Glucose (SG) values at 30 d postpartum, followed by a significant positive (P less then 0.01) correlation at 60 or 90 d postpartum. It is concluded that extended DP of more than 60 days is not advantageous and would be a costly affair for the farmers in both productive and reproductive backdrop.
Changes in land use pattern and factors responsible for variations in current fallow land in Bihar, India
Authors: Ahmad Nasim , Sinha D. K. , Singh K. M.
Published: May 2018

Endowment of fertile Gangetic alluvial soil and abundant water resources, particularly groundwater resources altogether constitute core components for development of agriculture in Bihar. Efforts have been made in this paper to analyze factors responsible for changes in land use pattern, especially increase in current fallows, shrinking net sown area and shifting of land for non-agricultural purposes in the state. A larger concentration of current fallow lands was accounted for in Gaya, Patna, Purnea, Munger, Jehanabad and Kishanganj districts. The rainfall and road length have significant impact on the level of current fallows. Erratic monsoon and labour scarcity during the study period of present century resulted in accumulation of current fallow lands. It was further observed that the non-agricultural use of land was identified as the dominant factor for changes in common lands as it affected the current fallows negatively. It is a challenging task for policy makers to maximize the income of farmers from a continuously declining in net sown area, deteriorating climatic conditions as well as labour scarce conditions, thereby resulting in aggregation of current fallows. In order to boost the production and enhance farmer’s income, it is necessary to discourage the rising tendency in current fallows or to bring current fallows under cultivation.

The proteins Wnts are considered a key regulator of the early development of the skeleton. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the presence of the protein Wnt10b as a marker of bone repair in critical size defects surgically created in the calvaria of rabbits treated with fragmented autogenous adipose tissue graft. Methods: A total of 28 rabbits were divided into two groups: the Control group (C) and Adipose Tissue Graft group (ATG). A CSD measuring 15 mm in diameter was created in the calvaria of each animal. In rabbits of the C group, the defect was filled only with blood clot, and in ATG group, the defect was filled with fragmented adipose tissue graft. The two groups were divided into two subgroups (n = 7) for euthanasia 15 and 40 days after surgery. Histological and immunohistochemically analyses were performed to evaluate the neoformed bone and the presence/concentration of Wnt10b protein. The Kruskal-Wallis test was performed to compare the means and standard deviations of the number of Wnt10b + cells/mm2 in both groups in each postoperative period. It was assumed a significance level of 5%. Results: After 40 days, the mean concentration of the protein Wnt10b in ATG group was 26.26 (+-6.97) significant higher (p<0,001) than the mean in C group that was 305 (37.41). Conclusion: The protein Wnt10b would play a crucial role in the signaling of bone formation in bone defects treated with fragmented autogenous adipose tissue graft.
Melhorar o mundo, a escola e a si próprio: os caminhos entrecruzados da experiência juvenil
Authors: Caetano Pedro
Published: May 2018

O problema da apatia política, sobretudo dos mais jovens, constitui-se atualmente como uma séria ameaça à qualidade da democracia. À escola, como instância socializadora, é justamente pedido que trabalhe as competências críticas dos mais jovens, bem como as suas capacidades de subir em generalização, ajudando-os a ler o mundo. Contudo, o problema da apatia dos jovens estende-se às próprias atividades em comum realizadas em contexto escolar. O problema coloca-se tanto a uma escala macro como micro. Com vista a explorar as razões desta apatia, pretende-se dar conta neste artigo das tarefas que a educação pode ser chamada a desempenhar para a melhoria da democracia. Neste sentido, por meio do recurso a material empírico coletado em pesquisa em três escolas secundárias de Lisboa, mormente a partir de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e observação de atividades promovidas pelos próprios estudantes, os resultados sugerem uma pluralidade de engajamentos e de relações com a política, correspondentes a uma diversidade de tarefas que a escola pode vir a desempenhar na formação política dos jovens. Assim, paralelamente à socialização política clássica, descortina-se o engajamento por individuação, caracterizado essencialmente pela participação na vida da escola e pela vontade de experimentação, e o engajamento por subjetivação, o qual se apresenta como uma problematização da política centrada no aperfeiçoamento de si próprio. Estes engajamentos, componíveis entre si, representam tanto diferentes formas de ser como quadros morais de avaliação e de ação. Eles dão conta de um domínio alargado da política enquanto experiência de relação com o mundo.

Authors: Santos Jovenilda Freitas dos , Lubisco Nídia Maria Lienert
Published: May 2018

Pesquisa descritiva que objetiva discutir, sob uma perspectiva histórica, o desenvolvimento do Marketing e sua convergência com os paradigmas da Ciência da Informação, conhecidos como paradigma físico, cognitivo e social. Sob o paradigma físico, pontua-se a relação do nascimento de ambas as áreas do conhecimento, que exclui o papel ativo do sujeito cognoscente de todo processo informativo e comunicativo. Em seguida, sob a visão cognitiva, analisa-se a proximidade das áreas, a partir das interações e necessidades do usuário em relação aos sistemas de informação, onde ambas as áreas não tinham como compreender o usuário, de modo a ajustar os serviços a ele. O último estágio do Marketing assemelha-se ao último paradigma da Ciência da Informação, cujo objetivo é integrar a abordagem física e cognitiva, considerando a constituição social do indivíduo para construir um modelo ideal que beneficie a todos os envolvidos no processo. Trata-se do paradigma social preconizado por Shera. Conclui-se o estudo, baseado em pesquisa bibliográfica, destacando a sintonia entre o Marketing e a Ciência da Informação, a qual beneficia não só teoricamente ambas as áreas, mas também as teorias e práticas da Administração e da Biblioteconomia, a partir de um objetivo comum a esses dois campos do saber: a satisfação das necessidades informacionais dos usuários/clientes.

A partir das estatísticas de óbitos produzidas e publicadas pela Repartição de Estatística e Arquivo do Estado de São Paulo, pode-se verificar que, naquele momento, a população desse bairro vivenciou um padrão de mortalidade característico de sociedade em pré-transição demográfica – alta mortalidade geral e alta mortalidade infantil – impactado pelo movimento imigratório, pelo ambiente, pelas condições de vida e trabalho e pela precariedade das políticas públicas de saúde.
A presença de escravos carmelitas na Fazenda Capão Alto, no Paraná: questões historiográficas
Authors: Gomes Joselia Maria Loyola de Oliveira
Published: May 2018

O artigo tem como objetivo coligir questões da historiografia regional relacionadas aos escravos carmelitas da Fazenda Capão Alto (PR), apontar ações cooperativas entre os escravos carmelitas de Castro (PR), contextualizar o arrendamento e a posterior venda dos cativos para o interior de São Paulo e indicar as comunidades de remanescentes de quilombos (CRQs) na região de Castro (PR). O referencial direcionou-se para artigos, dissertações, teses e livros que se valeram de documentos compostos por listas nominativas de habitantes, registros de batismos e casamentos, processos judiciais e cartoriais, jornais e correspondências oficiais. Os escravos carmelitas administraram a Fazenda Capão Alto entre 1770 e 1867. O arrendamento dos escravos, em 1864, causou revolta e resistência. A saída definitiva dos cativos para o interior de São Paulo foi dividida em dois grupos, provavelmente em 1867. No primeiro grupo, 50 escravos foram levados para trabalhar na construção da ferrovia que ligava a cidade de Jundiaí a Campinas. No segundo grupo, foram comercializados 186 escravos da Fazenda Capão Alto ao comendador Francisco Teixeira Vilela, de Campinas (SP). Das comunidades de remanescentes de quilombos (CRQs), na região de Castro (PR), três apresentam descendência de escravos fugidos da Fazenda Capão Alto.

Authors: Galvíncio Amanda Sousa , Espindola Maíra Lewtchuk , Costa Jean Carlo de Carvalho
Published: May 2018

As mulheres, na virada do século XIX para século XX, começaram a protagonizar o debate público brasileiro. Nísia Floresta traduziu e publicou “O Direito das Mulheres e injustiça dos Homens”, em 1832, o escrito da inglesa, Mary Wollstonecraft, originalmente intitulado de “Vindication Of The Rights Of Woman”, em 1792. Na Parahyba do Norte, em 1913, Catharina Moura, em conferência pública na Universidade Popular, proclamou discurso com igual título, retomando as teses defendidas pelas suas antecessoras. O objetivo desse trabalho é compreender o projeto educacional proposto pelas mulheres intelectuais que participaram do debate público, particularmente, o da Catharina Moura. As fontes utilizadas são os jornais e revistas do período que foram suporte da escrita dessas mulheres, mais especificamente, o jornal parahybano, A União. Como referencial teórico-metodológico foi utilizado a História dos Intelectuais que auxilia a compreender a trajetória, a geração e as redes de sociabilidades que atravessaram a vida dessas mulheres, bem como a participação delas e as ideias que propagavam no debate público do período. Nesse sentido, é possível concluir que as mulheres atuaram como intelectuais se posicionando em favor da emancipação feminina pela via da educação escolar e cultural. Catharina Moura fez parte da tradição de mulheres escritoras e engajadas do período, defendendo a igualdade de oportunidades entre homens e mulheres nas mais diversas profissões e também destacando a legitimidade do voto feminino.
Desperdício de alimentos: fator de insegurança alimentar e nutricional
Authors: Nascimento Silvia Panetta
Published: May 2018

O crescimento demográfico projetado para as próximas décadas implicará na necessidade de maior produção de alimentos para alimentar as cerca de 9 bilhões de pessoas que deverão existir no ano de 2050. As modernas técnicas de produção de alimentos, tanto na agropecuária como nos processos de beneficiamento e armazenagem, promoveram maior produtividade e eficiência dos sistemas produtivos. Esses sistemas, entretanto, vêm reduzindo a capacidade de recuperação dos solos, desregulação da dinâmica hídrica e redução da biodiversidade, o que pode pôr em risco a produção de alimentos, em função da escassez dos recursos naturais. Os recursos devem, portanto, ser preservados e muito bem utilizados, no entanto, diversos estudos demonstram que há alto grau de desperdício na cadeia de produção e consumo de alimentos. Neste artigo, por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica, propôs-se fazer uma análise sobre os impactos do desperdício de alimentos na segurança alimentar. Concluiu-se que, embora sejam muitos os aspectos que interferem na segurança alimentar e nutricional, principalmente aqueles de caráter sócio econômico, as perdas na produção de alimentos consomem recursos naturais, os quais podem se tornar escassos e comprometer a produção e consumo de alimentos no futuro, gerando mais um fator de insegurança alimentar.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a atividade de ácidos orgânicos e compostos clorados comerciais para o controle de Salmonella spp. A concentração inibitória mínima (CIM) do dióxido de cloro, dicloro isocianurato de sódio e ácidos tricloro isocianúrico, lático e peracético foi determinada para cepas padrões de S. Enteretidis, S. Typhimurium e a S. Heidelberg e avaliada com 54 cepas isoladas de frigorífico e o produto com melhor desempenho foi avaliado em água de chiller artificialmente contaminada com Salmonella spp. Entre os clorados, apenas o dicloro isocianurato (60 ppm) foi capaz de inibir Salmonella spp. A CIM dos ácidos lático e peracético variou de 0,5 a 2,0%. Os ácidos peracético (1,0%) e lático (2,0%) foram capazes de inibir 98,14 e 100% das cepas isoladas, respectivamente. O ácido lático a 2,0% foi capaz de inibir completamente o crescimento das três cepas padrões de Salmonella spp. inoculadas na água do chiller. Os dados reforçam a necessidade de discussões para regulamentar o uso do ácido lático na tecnologia de abate de aves.

Heat stress is exposing birds to degrees of temperature higher than the optimal, which results in numerous health problems i.e. respiratory deficits decrease feed intake and thus lower weight at marketing age. Heat stress represents one of the most important factor that has negative effects on poultry production. Heat stress also leads to negative effects on the carcass properties and thus lower meat quality, consequently leads to severe shortage in the market. Most important solutions are using feed additives that have positive effects for resisting thermal stress. Betaine that has several other beneficial effects of mild heat stress. Most of the trials were reported slight positive effects; however, systematic results were rare. Since there are almost unlimited possibilities concerning dosage and products of betaine there is still more research required. Nevertheless, there is still further research under more standardized conditions needed to evaluate the right dosage and combination as well as the exact mechanism of actions of anti-stress effects of betaine.

The use brews in preparing leavens provides yeast cells’ and lactbacteria’s life activity with nutrients. The process of sugaring of bitter brews depending on parameters of their preparation was studied, and it was established, that the most intensity of sugars accumulation takes place during 1 hour of sugaring at the moisture mass share in brew 78,0 %. It is recommended to use such developed bitter brew in the technology of rye-wheat bread with the small content of rye four (10…12 %) or wheat bread of sorted flour.

It is recommended to use the four-phase method of preparing dough by the scheme: “sugared “bitter” brew → brew, fermented by homo-enzymatic thermophilic FMB L.Delbrükii‒76 → hop leaven, fermented by yeast of S. cerevisiae L-1 race and homo-enzymatic mesophilic LMB L. Plantarum-30 → dough». At using 25 % of leaven, the acidity of dough and ready products decreases by 2,0 degrees. That is why it is recommended to use this method of preparing bakery products of wheat flour. At that there is provided the better fluffiness and crumb state and prolongation of freshness of bakery products. According to the research results, there was developed the apparatus-technological productive scheme that can be introduced on special lines.

A semi-product for cooking a smoothie drink was chosen as a subject of the study. It included strawberries, dried apples and oat flocks. A sample was frozen in a low-temperature calorimeter to –20 °С. It was established, that freezing at–20±2 °С favors the full conservation of a sample and storage during 270 days. The results of the organoleptic evaluation of the semi-product before freezing and after refrigeratory storage during 270 demonstrated that the product is characterized by a high quality.

Microbiological parameters of the fresh and frozen semi-product were studied for a quantity of mesophilic aerobic and facultative-anaerobic microorganisms (QMAFMAnM). And also for bacteria of the colibacillus group (BGCB), pathogenic microorganisms of bacteria of Salmonella genus, molds and yeast. The gram-negative microflora – bacteria of the colibacillus group, pathogenic microorganisms including bacteria of Salmonella genus, were not observed in samples of frozen semi-products.

The studies demonstrated freezing advantages from both aspects of minimization of losses of valuable biocomponents of the raw material and of achieving high organoleptic parameters of products after freezing and defrosting. The observance of optimal conditions of freezing excludes the necessity of the additional use of artificial preservatives, provides high-quality products and safety that corresponds to all principles of healthy nutrition.
INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES: ESSENCE AND IMPORTANCE OF GALVANIC PRODUCTION DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Lositska Tetyana
Published: May 2018

The paper highlights the main environmental problems of the galvanic industry, since today's traditional galvanic production worldwide occupies the second place in environmental hazards after cars operating. All components that are emitted or discarded become constituents and aggressive parts of the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. It was investigated that the most dangerous pollutants of the hydrosphere are heavy metal ions contained in industrial effluents of galvanochemical production. The total volume of wastewater in the CIS countries may reach 1 km which carries up to 50 % of the total used metal. The use of the certified computer program Eol-Plus is proposed, which allows to calculate the contamination field for a point model of a source of harmful substances with a round and rectangular pipe mouth, a linear model, two models of an area source, and make calculations taking into account background concentrations. The program also provides a graphical interpretation of the calculation results presented in the form of dispersion maps with the possibility of changing the scale of the map of dispersion of substances in the atmosphere, the construction of the border of the sanitary-forbidden zone, the choice of the point for determining the concentration scale, obtaining printed copies, the module for generating, scanning and printing the calculation results in the table form documents and the mechanism for creating information files on an external data carrier. It is proposed an innovative technology for the purification of rain and industrial surface runoff, which involves the complete purification of the first portion of contaminated wastewater with subsequent use for the production needs of the Ternopil State Scientific and Technological Enterprise "Promin"
Landau levels, response functions and magnetic oscillations from a generalized Onsager relation
Authors: Fuchs Jean-Noël , Piéchon Frédéric , Montambaux Gilles
Published: May 2018

A generalized semiclassical quantization condition for cyclotron
orbits was recently proposed by Gao and Niu , that goes beyond the
Onsager relation . In addition to the integrated density of states, it
formally involves magnetic response functions of all orders in the
magnetic field. In particular, up to second order, it requires the
knowledge of the spontaneous magnetization and the magnetic
susceptibility, as was early anticipated by Roth . We study three
applications of this relation focusing on two-dimensional electrons.
First, we obtain magnetic response functions from Landau levels. Second
we obtain Landau levels from response functions. Third we study magnetic
oscillations in metals and propose a proper way to analyze Landau plots
(i.e. the oscillation index nn
as a function of the inverse magnetic field
1/B1/B)
in order to extract quantities such as a zero-field phase-shift. Whereas
the frequency of 1/B1/B-oscillations
depends on the zero-field energy spectrum, the zero-field phase-shift depends on the geometry of the
cell-periodic Bloch states via two contributions: the Berry phase and
the average orbital magnetic moment on the Fermi surface. We also
quantify deviations from linearity in Landau plots (i.e. aperiodic
magnetic oscillations), as recently measured in surface states of
three-dimensional topological insulators and emphasized by Wright and
McKenzie .
El tiempo de la escritura

Published: May 2018

Resulta asombroso, por expresarlo de alguna manera, que la labor de la escritura sea tan comprometedora. “Que lo ponga por escrito, en blanco y negro” es la indicación (por no decir: la orden) de nuestro jefe inmediato, cuando se pretende dejar por sentado algo importante y/o significativo: quejas, reclamos, opiniones, decisiones, peticiones, en fin; que, a un acto tan natural y cotidiano para tantos millones de seres humanos, como lo es la escritura, le anteceden miles de años de evolución que le confieren proporcionalmente enormes responsabilidades. Este texto aborda tres puntos de vista del ejercicio de la escritura; en el primero, se aborda la decadencia de la escritura inspirada, a partir de lo que encierra la infancia y la adultez para circunscribirlo al ser; en el segundo, se ahonda en la escritura como un tiempo necesario en la constitución psíquica que se esfuerza por inscribir algo de un orden inatrapable; y, finalmente, en el tercer momento se aproxima al privilegio de la escritura y su relación con la escritura académica.

Nowadays, using high-ductility structures in construction and significant buildings is highly appreciated. To use better ductile structures, effort has been made in this research to introduce box-plate, box-plate with UNP, box-plate with L-plate and ordinary beam-to-column connections. Eleven models with different shapes and thickness were analyzed and compared in this research, and they underwent hysteretic loading. Parameters such as restraint percentage, stiffness, strength, plastic hinge location, and ductility under cyclic loads were calculated for each model. It was found, from their moment-rotation curves that the bending capacity and ductility of the box-plate with UNP connection was greater than any other rigid connections, and those of the latter were greater than those of the normal, typical ones. It was also shown that stress concentration in box-plate with UNP connections disappear over the top and bottom flange plates.
Incipient fault diagnosis of rolling bearing using accumulative component kurtosis in SVD process

Published: May 2018

Rolling element bearing faults account for main causes of rotating machine failures. It is crucial to identify the incipient fault before the bearing steps into serious fault condition. The Hilbert envelope spectrum has been proved powerful and with high practical value to detect transient components in vibration signal but sensitive to noise. Based on the conventional singular value decomposition (SVD) theory, accumulative component kurtosis (ACK) is introduced to de-noising of vibration signal processing. The proposed ACK-SVD emphasizes the accumulative components (ACs) rather than the single singular component (SC) to select the effective SCs to recover signal. The superiority of the ACK-SVD over traditional SVD de-noising is verified by both simulated signals and actual vibration data from two rolling element bearing rigs. The results demonstrate the proposed method can efficiently identify the rolling element bearing faults, especially the early ones with strong background noise.
