Published: April 2021

Surface modified tapioca starch was developed by enzyme treatment (using STARGEN™ 002 enzyme) and alcohol-enzyme treatment. The effects of acetylation treatment on surface modified tapioca starches were evaluated for acetyl content (Ac%), degree of substitution (DS), morphology using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal properties, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. After acetylation treatment, Ac% and DS value of the samples were significantly increased for acetylated (0.67% and 0.03), enzyme-acetylated (1.13% and 0.04), and alcohol-enzyme acetylated (1.76% and 0.07). The acetylation treatment led to the formation of a few starch granules due to the introduction of hydrophilic groups of acetyl molecules into starch granules. The incorporation of acetyl groups into starch molecules also was shown at peak 1750 cm-1 , 1369 cm-1 , and 1230 cm-1 in the FTIR spectra. The enzyme-acetylated and alcohol-enzyme acetylated starch granules retained the A-type crystalline structure with decreased in the gelatinization enthalpy (ΔH) after acetylation.

Published: April 2021

Tea is considered as the most consumed drink in the world containing high antioxidant capacity. In this study, the volatile compounds, the phenolic content, catechins and caffeine including antioxidant activities of 22 Camellia sinensis var. assamica (Assam tea) cultivars were investigated. The volatile compounds were investigated by GC-MS. At least forty-five volatile compounds representing 94.99-99.65% of all cultivars were identified. Limonene, trans-linalool oxide, cis-linalool oxide, linalool, and furfural were detected as the major components among these cultivars. Varied ranges were found in all Assam tea cultivars for the contents of phenolics (113.45-245.55 mg gallic acid/g dry weight), total catechins (170.03-355.59 mg/g dry weight), caffeine (0.92-3.40 mg/g dry weight), and antioxidant activities (1418.68-2728.46 µmol Trolox/g dry weight and 1448.98-2864.17 µmol Trolox/g dry weight for DPPH and ABTS assay, respectively). The antioxidant activity was correlated with phenolic compounds such as epigallocatechin gallate, epicatechin gallate, and catechin gallate. The specific differences among Assam tea cultivars are dependent on the tea cultivar and altitude which may play a significant role in breeding Assam tea cultivars in Thailand for providing its potential health benefits.

Published: April 2021

Cocoa powder is an important ingredient in the confectionery industry and, mannitol is an alternative sugar alcohol. In this work, mannitol powder was mixed with cocoa powder and compacted into tablet form via the uniaxial die compaction process. The frictional, compaction, tablet mechanical and disintegration properties were studied due to their importance in characterizing the behaviour of the tablets during processing and its final product characteristics at varying mannitol contents. The composition of mannitol in the mannitol-cocoa tablet varied at 95% w/w, 50% w/w and 5% w/w, while pure 100% w/w mannitol and cocoa tablets were set as controls. The compaction pressures used in making the tablets varied at 37.67 MPa, 75.34 MPa, 113.01 MPa, 150.68 MPa and 188.35 MPa. The compaction behaviour of the powder during the compaction process was evaluated using the plastic work and the maximum ejection stress values. The tablet strength was determined using the tensile strength method and tablet disintegration study was also conducted. The results showed that the increase in the compaction pressures increased the plastic work, maximum ejection pressure, tablet strength and also its disintegration time. The tablet formed having 95% w/w mannitol composition exhibited the highest plastic work value of 10.32±0.01 J, highest maximum ejection pressure value of 4.4±0.06 MPa, highest tensile strength value of 1.06±0.04 MPa and shortest disintegration time of 171±51 s amongst the three different mannitol compositions studied. Meanwhile, the effects of mannitol composition in the tablet on these observed responses were also dependent upon the compaction pressures used during tablet formation. In conclusion, the addition of mannitol improved the tablet strength and shorten the disintegration time in the experimental range employed in this study.

The limited budget allocation and storage chemicals space are the main reasons food SMEs manufacturers took cleaning and sanitation for granted. A portable Electrolyzed Water Cleaning Rig which can generate sanitation solution and at the same time generated high-speed water will ease the cleaning and sanitation process for SMEs. In this study, the theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ method) is applied in the development of portable electrolyzed water cleaning rig. A new conceptual design for the rig, which is robust and affordable is proposed. The rig could improve cleaning efficiency significantly in SME food industry in Malaysia, which is a major cause of a low number of SME with GMP certification. However, the final conceptual design has to undergo several modifications for assembly and manufacturing purposes, which will be performed in further study. The idea of generation for the portable electrolyzed water cleaning rig design was illustrated based on the TRIZ contradiction matrix. This portable unit will be able to generate both strongly acidic electrolyzed water (AcEW) and strongly alkaline electrolyzed water (AlEW) solution continuously. Both cleaning solutions are green cleaning solutions which can replace the commercial cleaning sanitation solutions. The development of the conceptual design of the portable Electrolyzed Water Cleaning Rig will help food SMEs tremendously.

In recent years, losses and damages from flash floods have been steadily increasing worldwide as well as in Vietnam, due to physical factors, human activities, especially under a changing climate. This is a hotspot issue which requires immediate response from scientists and policy-makers to monitor and mitigate the negative impacts of flash floods. This study presents a way to reduce losses through increasing the accuracy of real-time flash flood warning systems in Vietnam, a case study developed for Ha Giang province where the topography is relatively complex with severe flash floods observed. The objective of this paper is to generate the real-time flash flood system based on bankfull discharge threshold. To do this, HEC-HMS model is applied to calibrate and validate observer inflow to the reservoir with nine automatic rain gauges installed. More importantly, on the basic of measured discharge at 35 locations from the fieldtrips, an empirical equation constructed is to identify the bankful discharge values. It bases on the relationship between basin characteristics of river length, basin area and bankfull discharge. The results indicate an effective approach to determine bankfull threshold with the established-empirical equation. On the scale of a small basin, it depicts the consistency of flood status and warning time with the reality. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091687 Full Text: PDF

University–construction industry collaboration (UIC) has become an essential part of driving innovation and fostering construction industry growth. Measuring the performance of such collaboration is an emergent field of study that is scattered through the current literature. This study aims to identify the UIC performance indicators advocated by the top-cited references, and map UIC performance indicators in the context of the state of Qatar. The present research evaluated the literature related to measuring the performance of UIC, considering publications in selected scientific databases over the period of 2004 – 2020. The publications were obtained through a search of the Science Direct, Emerald Insight, Scopus, Web of Science, Springer Link, SAGE, Research Gate, and Taylor & Francis Online databases. Keywords used in searching for publications included university, construction industry, business, cooperation, collaboration, relation, performance, and measurement. The findings were discussed and confirmed in the context of Qatar’s education and innovation ecosystem through semi-structured interviews with two renowned scholars who are involved in UIC. The study revealed that both universities and the construction industry are increasingly focused on measuring the performance of collaboration through specific performance indicators. The results show that both universities and the construction industry share some interests when it comes to four key performance indicators. These performance indicators are (1) the number of registered patents, (2) the number of patent applications, (3) the number of innovations (process/marketing/product/organisational), and (4) the number of publications. This study contributes to a general understanding of measuring UIC performance and defining trends in this research field. It also highlights research limitations and provides an arena for future research in the field. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091688 Full Text: PDF

Nilwani, S.Ag, M.PdPenelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh timbulnya kesenjangan antara rendahnya konsentrasi belajar peserta didik dengan upaya guru pendidikan agama islam dalam meningkatkan konsentrasi belajar. Mengembangkan konsentrasi sangatlah penting untuk mengoptimalkan kompetensi anak dalam menyelesaikan setiap kegiatan yang dilakukan. Pengaruh konsentrasi yang kurang baik, akan berakibat tidak optimalnya hasil dari semua kegiatan tersebut. Tanpa adanya konsentrasi, maka setiap proses belajar mengajar tidak akan berjalan dengan lancar begitu juga dengan hasil pembelajarannya kurang memuaskan. Melalui metode atau trik belajar yang bisa dilakukan sambil bermain akan membuat semua peserta didik menjadi aktif dan tidak cenderung pasif. Hasil dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa upaya guru pendidikan agama islam (PAI) dalam meningkatkan konsentrasi belajar peserta didik kelas IV di SD Negeri 44 Pontianak diantaranya yaitu sebelum masuk kedalam kelas peserta didik harus baris berbaris terlebih dahulu dengan rapih dan dicek kebersihan serta kerapian dalam berseragam, guru memberikan kesiapan belajar yang bagus yakni dengan kesiapan mental dan rohani sebelum memulai pembelajaran dengan membaca doa belajar, membaca surah-surah pendek didalam Al-Qur’an, menanamkan minat belajar kepada peserta didik yakni berupa penggunaan media-media pembelajaran yang menarik untuk membuat peserta didik tertarik pada pelajaran yang akan dipelajari, menggunakan metode atau trik-trik mengajar yang menyenangkan yakni penggunaan trik manajemen kelas dan trik suasana bisu yang bervariasi bermain sambil belajar untuk mengembalikan konsentrasi peserta didik yang mulai menurun, dan menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang kondusif serta melakukan pengkondisian kelas.

PdPenelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh ketertarikan peneliti akan kegiatan Malam Bina Iman dan Taqwa (MABIT) yang dilaksanakan di SDIT Darul Ihsan Pontianak, mengingat dewasa ini problematika moral yang semakin kompleks khususnya di Indonesia. Sehingga perlu bimbingan keagamaan guna membentuk generasi yang berakhlak islami.  Kegiatan MABIT menjadi salah satu solusi untuk menggembleng atau mendidik akhlak anak-anak di era modern, dengan menciptakan kegiatan yang menjadi kebiasaan seorang muslim menurut pandanngan islam. Bukan sebagai muslim yang hanya menyandang status di KTP saja, akan tetapi substansi muslim itu sendiri. Karena konsekuensi dari seorang muslim adalah menjalankan perintah Allah swt. dengan sepenuh hati dan menjauhi larangan-Nya sekuat tenaga. MABIT di SDIT Darul Ihsan Pontianak kali ini mengusung tema “Birrul Walidain” yaitu berbakti kepada kedua orang tua. Seperti yang sudah kita ketahui rasa hormat dan patuh anak-anak terhadap orang tua terkikis oleh arus kemajuan teknologi. Sehingga kegiatan MABIT diharapkan dapat memberikan edukasi dalam berbakti kepada kedua orang tua. Adapun MABIT kelas atas (III, IV, Dan V) sejalan dengan pendidikan anak dalam islam yaitu tentang anjuran sholat. Dimana pada rentang umur 7 sampai dengan 10 tahun Rasulullah saw. menganjurkan untuk diajarkan sholat. Dengan begitu, awal pembentukan akhlak dimulai dari sholatnya. Jadi seperti itulah salah satu pendidikan dalam islam dengan membentuk kebiasaan anak-anak mulai dari sejak dini. Maka dari itu dibuatlah kegiatan MABIT di SDIT Darul Ihsan Pontianak dengan desain pola hidup seorang muslim menurut pandangan islam.

Published: April 2021

Organic farming has been recommended by many experts in the world because of its positive ecological impacts such as increasing biodiversity. In Indonesia, the practice of organic farming is very widespread, including in smallholder coffee plantations. This study was intended to determine the impact of the organic farming system applied by smallholder coffee farmers for 2 years on soil arthropod diversity. On the two coffee farmlands, the conventional and organics (1 ha each), 10 plots of 5 x 20 meters were set and in each of these plots 5 sampling points were defined for collecting soil arthropods using pit-fall technique. The analysis of arthropod diversity in the two fields was quantified using the Shannon-Wiener diversity index model. The results showed that the two compared coffee farming systems had the same index of diversity (H ') and evenness (E). However, statistical tests using the Hutcheson t-test revealed that the variance in diversity of arthropods in organic coffee farms was significantly higher than in conventional ones (α <0.001). Therefore, it can be concluded that the practice of organic coffee farming, although in a short time, has been able and potent to increase the population and/or diversity of soil animals.

wheezing and increased airway responsiveness to a variety of environmental stimuli. The definition of asthma involves various phenotypes and endotypes.The immunopathogenesis of asthma involves many immune cell sand involves the airway epithelium as well as both innate and adaptive components of the immune system. Understanding the Immunology of asthma is essential in its treatment.Asthma is a rising significant global public health burden. The annual prevalence of severe asthma episodes is estimated from 1% to 21% for adults and over 20% for children aged 6–7 years. The prevalence of asthma varies widely around the world, ranging from 0.2% to 21.0% in adults and from 2.8% to 37.6% in 6- to 7-year-old children. The development of novel asthma phenotyping & endo typing plus better classification of patients using machine learning and big data have markedly improved asthma treatment outcomes in both children and Adults.Several research groups have developed cluster analyses of phenotypes and endo-types in severe asthma. These clusters support the importance of disease heterogeneity in asthma and suggest differences in pathophysiologic mechanisms that define these clusters.Biomarkers of asthma include Serum Immunoglobulin, Fractional excretion of nitric oxide and blood eosinophils amongst others. There are five food and drug administration approved biologicals for the treatment of severe asthma.

Authors: Volkan Gelen  , Emin Şengül
Published: April 2021

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the protective effect of Resveratrol, which has a strong antioxidant effect on kidney tissues of rats experimentally induced with carbon tetrachloride with nephrotoxicity, by kidney function tests and histopathology. For this purpose, 32 male Wistar Albino rats were used. The subjects were randomly selected, 1st group control, 2nd group CCl4, 3rd group Resveratrol. The 4th group was divided into 4 groups as CCl4 + Resveratrol. At the end of the experiment, animals were sacrificed under anesthesia and kidney samples were taken in 10% formalin solution for histopathological analysis. In the histopathological examination, it was found that the rats in the control and Resveratrol groups had normal kidney histological structure. In CCI4 group, severe hydropic degeneration in tubules epithelium, mild coagulation necrosis in tubules epithelium and severe hyperemia in the vessels were observed. When kidney tissues of rats were examined in CCI4 + Resveratrol group, mild hydropic degeneration in tubules epithelium and mild hyperemia in vessels were observed. When the kidney tissues of the rats in the Resveratrol group were examined, it was observed that they had a normal histological appearance. As a result, it was determined that Resveratrol has a protective effect on kidney damage caused by CCI4.

New groups of hypolipidemic medications based on inhibition of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Part 1
Authors: Chaulin A. M.
Published: April 2021

Hypolipidemic therapy is one of the essential components for the management of patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). In this regard, the main task of modern research is to find new targets for creating additional effective groups of hypolipidemic medications. Canadian and French research groups led by N. Seidah and M. Abifadel discovered a new enzyme — proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) in 2003. It turned out to play an important role in lipid metabolism later. The main mechanism of action of PCSK9 is to regulate the density of low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR) in the cell membrane of hepatocytes. Increased activity of PCSK9 accelerates the degradation of LDL significantly, and leads to an increase in the concentration of atherogenic classes of lipoproteins — low-density lipoproteins (LDL). In contrast, reduced PCSK9 activity is accompanied by a decrease in LDL concentrations and a reduced risk of developing atherosclerosis and CVD. The second of the recently discovered and less studied mechanism of PCSK9 protearogenic action is an increase in inflammatory processes in the atherosclerotic plaque. Considering this adverse contribution of PCSK9 to the development and progression of atherosclerosis and CVD, the main task of the researchers was to develop medications that inhibit THIS enzyme. Several new groups of medications that target the stages of biosynthesis and the function of PCSK9 have been developed by now. In this article, we will focus on details discussing the mechanisms of action and effectiveness of the following groups of hypolipidemic medications: anti-PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies (alirocumab, evolocumab), small interfering ribonucleic acids (incliciran), and antisense nucleotides.
