Sensitive and rapid Bradford and BCA protein assay by a common desktop scanner
Authors: Parween Shahila , Nahar Pradip
Published: April 2023

Introduction and Aim: The conventional method of protein quantification involves the need for a costly spectrophotometer which is a bulky and expensive instrument. Also, it requires a considerable quantity of protein which is often valuable or not affordable. In this communication, we report a sensitive image-based protein assay method overcoming the challenges faced by the conventional method. BCA and Bradford protein assay in a miniaturized form is carried out on a polypropylene micro-test plate (PPµTP) using only 1 µl of the precious protein solution in the nanogram range without the need for expensive equipment for quantification.
 
Materials and Methods: In this procedure, after the assay reaction, the assay plate with a color solution is turned upside down for capturing images in a desktop scanner. The image is then quantified digitally by a color space using freely available Adobe Photoshop and Macbeth color calculator software.
 
Results: Standard graphs made by the present image–based method agreeably correlate with the absorbance–based method carried out in a microtiter plate with a Pearson coefficient of 0.995178 and 0.981006 for BCA and Bradford assay respectively. A test protein quantified by this method shows an accuracy of 97%. Further, we have reduced the protein assay time to 75 s only by performing the assay on PPµTP by microwave irradiation. 
 
Conclusion: Image-based protein assay is also performed in an ultra-miniature assay plate (UAP) which requires only 1 µl of assay solution, reducing the detection limit further to the 10 femtogram/test zone. In short, image–based protein assay on PPµTP and UAP platforms could be an outstanding alternative either to spectrophotometric or paper–based protein assay.
The "Weight" of Territorial Issues: Evidence from Catalonia, Scotland, and Northern Ireland
Authors: Balcells Laia , Daniels Lesley-Ann , Kuo Alexander
Published: April 2023

Territorial debates complicate the politics of the affected regions, as parties decide whether to compete on a territorial dimension alongside other longstanding important issues. Yet, empirical evidence is scarce regarding how much voters politically weigh territorial issues against others. We theorize that in contexts when such issues are salient, they have a greater weight relative to others due to their identity-oriented nature. We present evidence from conjoint experiments from three European regions with active territorial debates: Catalonia, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. We find that territorial preferences matter more than others for candidate choice, as the reward (punishment) of congruent (incongruent) candidates is greater, and individuals are less willing to trade off on this issue. Our results have comparative implications for political competition in multidimensional spaces.

Published: April 2023

Background: In the past several decades, assertiveness and psychological empowerment have played an important role in developing successful nurses. Nurse leaders who can empower others will be able to motivate the frontline nurses with whom they work and help them manage difficult events in the workplace. The purpose of the study was to examine the correlation between the level of assertiveness and psychological empowerment possessed by the year 3 Diploma in nursing students at a private healthcare University College in Malaysia. Methods: A quantitative cross sectional survey design with convenience sampling was used in this study. The questionnaires were distributed to 144 prospective respondents using google forms. The response rate was 86% (n-119). Findings Based on the findings, the final-year students are non-assertive (53.8% representing 64 respondents) and not psychologically empowered (100% representing 119 respondents). Moreover, the study showed a positive and significant correlation between assertiveness and psychological empowerment at 0.570 with a p-value curriculum revision to include elements of assertiveness or psychological empowerment as soft skills development during nursing training

Published: April 2023

Over the last 50 years, schooling has expanded dramatically in most low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, while children are in school more than ever before, on average, over 50% of them are not acquiring foundational literacy and numeracy skills, and that proportion is expected to increase to 70% over the coming years due to the Covid-19 pandemic.1 Although a myriad of factors contributes to this learning poverty, the role of language is essential as all learning happens in and through language. This systematic review, funded by the Centre of Excellence for Development Impact and Learning and supported by UK aid from the UK Government, examined the impact of language of instruction (LOI) policies – especially LOI transition policies – on literacy and biliteracy outcomes for primary school children across LMICs. Nearly 40% of students in LMIC’s are educated in languages they do not use or understand (World Bank, 2021). In addition, nearly all LMIC’s students need to transition to a new LOI by the end of upper primary school, even though very little is known of when and how this transition should be made.
Divergent convective outflow in ICON deep convection-permitting and parameterised deep convection simulations
Authors: Groot Edward , Kuntze Patrick , Miltenberger Annette Katharina , Tost Holger
Published: April 2023

Abstract. Upper-tropospheric deep convective outflows during an event on 10th–11th of June 2019 over Central Europe are analysed from simulation output of the operational numerical weather prediction model ICON. Both, a parameterised and an explicit representation of deep convective systems are studied. Near-linear response of deep convective outflow strength to net latent heating is found for parameterised convection, while coherent patterns in variability are found in convection-permitting simulations at 1 km horizontal grid spacing. Furthermore, three hypotheses on factors that may affect the magnitude of the convective outflow are tested in the convection-permitting configuration: organisation of convection through dimensionality of the systems, organisation of convection through aggregation and convective momentum transport. Convective organisation and aggregation induce a non-linear increase in the magnitude of deep convective outflows with increasing net latent heating, as shown by the confidence interval of the best fit between power transformed net latent heating and detected magnitude of outflows. However, mixed and weaker than expected signals are found in an attempt to detect the representation of dimensionality of the convection and its consequences for the divergent outflows with an ellipse fitting algorithm that describes the elongation of the intense (convective) precipitation systems. As opposed to expectations, convective momentum transport is identified to slightly increase the magnitude of divergent outflows in this case study.

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Land cover is a key environmental variable, underpinning widespread environmental research and decision-making. The UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology (UKCEH) have provided reliable land cover information since the early 1990’s; this supports multiple scientific, government and commercial objectives. Recent advances in computation and satellite data availability have enabled annual UKCEH land cover maps since 2017. Here we introduce the latest, annual UK Land Cover Map, representing 2021 (LCM2021) and describe its production and validation. LCM2021 methods replicate those for LCM2017 to LCM2020 with minor deviations to enhance accuracy. LCM2021 is based on the classification of satellite and spatial context data into 21 land cover/habitat classes, from which a product suite is derived. The production of LCM2021 involved three highly automated key stages: pre-processing of input data, image classification and production of the final data products. Google Earth Engine scripts were used to create an input data stack of satellite and context data. A set of training areas was created, based on data harvested from historic UKCEH land cover maps. The training data were used to construct a Random Forest classifier, which yielded classified images. Compiled results were validated against 35,182 reference samples, with correspondence tables indicating variable class accuracy and an overall accuracy of 82.6 % for the 21-class data and 86.5 % at a 10 aggregated-class level.  The UK Land Cover Map product suite includes a set of raster products in various projections, thematic and spatial resolutions (10 m, 25 m and 1 km) and land-parcel/vector product. The data are provided in 21-class (all configurations) and aggregated 10-class versions (1 km raster products only). All raster products are freely available for academic and non-commercial research. The data for Great Britain (GB) are provided in the British National Grid projection (https://epsg.io/27700) and the Northern Ireland (NI) data are in the TM75 Irish National Grid (https://epsg.io/29903). Information on how to access the data is given in the Data Availability section of the paper.

ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OF PULP AND PAPER MILL EMISSIONS
Authors:   Institute of Biology, Komi Scientific Center, Ural Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, VASILEVICH M. I.
Published: April 2023

Eco-chemical monitoring of the snow cover in the impact zone of a pulp and paper mill was carried out. Conditional impact zones of the mill were identified. The interannual variations in their area were shown. There was a more than 50% decrease in the area of impact zones after the reconstruction of the mill. It was estimated that the seasonal features of the wind regime significantly influenced the formation of a snow pollution plume. A calculation of air mass trajectories showed a probable area of displacement of emission components from the mill. A comparison of field data on the pollution dispersion obtained during the snow cover study with data on the wind direction and air mass transport confirmed the consistency of these data.

The paper presents the results of studying the conversion of various types of energy, taking into account the formation and dissipation of a warm core in the central part of cyclones. The contribution of energy types (kinetic, potential, and internal) and their impact on the intensity of the cyclone development were also assessed by the example of the evolution of a mesocyclone. The mesocyclone was generated on the periphery of the main subtropical cyclone in January 2016 over the Sea of Japan and caused heavy precipitation and strong winds on the southern coast of the Primorsky krai. It is shown for each of the two analyzed cyclones that the stage of their deepening is accompanied by the formation of the warm core with a simultaneous decrease in the bulk values of all potential energy indicators for the vortex in the central region. At the stage of dissipation of the warm core, the values of all potential energy indicators increase. A change in water vapor reserves in the central part of both cyclones is similar to a change in internal energy, which is associated with the transformation of water vapor in the atmosphere (forced and free convection).

A quantitative comparison of sea level differences calculated from sea surface current velocities and satellite altimetry measurements was carried out. The velocities were calculated by the automatic method for tracing thermal inhomogeneities based оn a sequence of infrared images with a priori estimation of the calculation accuracy. Comparisons were carried out along the tracks of an altimetry satellite and at the points of the regular grid, to which the values from the tracks are interpolated. Ageostrophic components were estimated for the calculated velocities. At the distances of about 100 km, their contribution did not exceed the accuracy of altimetry measurements (2-4 cm). Along the tracks, the estimates of sea level differences calculated from the velocities were close to those computed from satellite altimetry. At the regular grid points, the estimates of sea level differences by velocities were significantly higher than the estimates of sea level differences by satellite altimetry, which is explained by the drawbacks of the optimal interpolation scheme used. It was concluded that the joint use of two types of measurements to retrieve the World Ocean circulation is reasonable.

For large-scale heat waves that occur in the south of the European part of Russia (EPR), the frequency variability since the beginning of the 20th century is considered, including variations on decadal scales and a trend during the global warming period, accompanying variations in the aridity index SPI, and the structure of the longest waves. The geographic distribution of air temperature anomalies on the territory of the Russian Federation, large-scale circulation conditions, the North Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies, which accompanied heat waves in the south of the EPR, are analyzed using the composite analysis. In particular, the wave structure was revealed of the composite field of the air temperature anomaly for days with heat waves and the related 500 hPa geopotential height (H500) fields over Russia. The H500 field structure generally corresponds to the negative phase of the East Atlantic-Western Russia (EAWR) circulation pattern. Similar structures of the geopotential field are observed during heat waves in the northern half of the EPR. However, in this case, there are specific features that contribute to the inflow of cold air from the north to the southern regions. It is shown that the values of the EAWR index are significantly shifted towards negative values in the months when long heat waves occur over the southern EPR. The waves are accompanied by positive anomalies of the North Atlantic SST and the strongly increased blocking anticyclone activity. The downward trend in the EAWR index observed in recent decades and the SST rise expected with the global warming increase a risk of droughts in the main grain-producing region of the country.
A UNIVERSAL FORMULA FOR EVALUATING THE COMPRESSIVE AND FLEXURAL STRENGTH OF SEA ICE FOR THERMODYNAMIC CALCULATIONS
Authors:   Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute, ANDREEV O. M.
Published: April 2023

Thermodynamic modeling of the ice cover of freezing seas is carried out according to their hydrometeorological conditions. It is an important tool in assessing the evolution of the main ice parameters. However, the calculation of the ice strength properties is currently complicated by a need to introduce additional full-scale parameters. A new universal formula that is devoid of this drawback was developed for assessing the main strength properties of ice. The results of a comparison of calculations performed according to the formula and methods from the main regulatory documents are presented. A comparison of the calculations based on the formula with field measurements was provided and showed a high accuracy of the average ice strength values estimated using the proposed formula.

Published: April 2023

The article seeks to confront the analyzes carried out by the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB) and by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE) on the Itaú/XP merger, within the scope of their respective competition powers. The corporate operation that was maintained under the “double” approval system had very peculiar characteristics and involved the influence of XP’s innovative performance as an open investment platform. Based on this case, which serves as a paradigm in relation to the competitive analyzes carried out by the BCB and CADE on open platforms, it is proposed to investigate what are the legal challenges that the transformation of market structures in the financial system around digital platforms may bring about the exercise of antitrust and regulatory powers, mainly due to the new Bank as a Platform (BaaP) business models facilitated by the implementation of open finance and the operation of digital platforms that can be licensed as a Payment Initiation Service Provider.

This paper aims to analyze the complexities of judicial reorganization process from the emotional effects or from constant psychological distress undergone by the parties involved in such an event. Given the expectation of pacification and other results in the reorganization case as well as the possibility of mediation as a way of resolving this collective conflict, this essay proposes a dialogue between Law and Psychoanalysis, primarily based on the contributions of psychoanalytic theory that underlies the psychic distress and its transformation through skilled listening. The study analyzes possible listenings during bankruptcy protection cases and suggests a reflection on the importance of having skilled listening that can take place during mediation practices.

Una ley para las milongas: participación social, patrimonio cultural y políticas públicas
Authors: Morel Hernán
Published: April 2023

Un aspecto central en los procesos de salvaguarda contemporáneos está dado por el protagonismo y la participación que adquieren distintos sujetos y grupos de la sociedad civil (comunidades locales, movimientos culturales, asociaciones civiles, ONGs) en la activación y gestión del patrimonio cultural. Al respecto, distintas investigaciones señalan una relación tensa y compleja entre esta participación social y el campo del patrimonio cultural. En este artículo me propongo reflexionar sobre las formas de involucramiento y las estrategias políticas llevadas a cabo por un movimiento de organizadores de milongas surgido en la ciudad de Buenos Aires. A partir de una investigación etnográfica procuraré contextualizar los campos de tensión que se han desplegado en torno a las milongas y los espacios de baile de tango que funcionan en la ciudad. Puntualmente, me interesa analizar el trabajo de formulación de una política pública con el fin de explorar en ciertas problemáticas ligadas a la participación de actores y movimientos culturales que se colocan al frente de determinadas demandas en defensa del patrimonio cultural. De manera más específica, me referiré al proceso de construcción y materialización de una ley -sancionada en el año 2016- a partir de la cual se busca fomentar la actividad que realizan las milongas porteñas.

Actualización sobre los mecanismos genéticos y epigenéticos en el origen de los defectos congénitos sensibles a la deficiencia materna de ácido fólico
Authors: Taboada Lugo Noel , Herrera Martínez Manuela
Published: April 2023

Los defectos congénitos constituyen la primera causa de muerte infantil en los países desarrollados y la segunda en muchos países en vías de desarrollo. El estudio de los mecanismos genéticos que están involucrados en el origen de muchos defectos congénitos ha tenido un aumento vertiginoso, así como el de los diferentes mecanismos epigenéticos relacionados con la deficiencia materna de ácido fólico. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica actualizada con el objetivo de proveer información actualizada sobre los mecanismos genéticos y epigenéticos involucrados en el origen de diferentes defectos congénitos relacionados con la deficiencia materna de ácido fólico. La literatura médica publicada en idiomas español e inglés se recopiló a través de buscadores como PubMed, Medline, Scielo, Lilacs y la biblioteca Cochrane en septiembre de 2018 usando palabras clave apropiadas. El hecho de que las alteraciones epigenéticas, en contraste con los mecanismos genéticos como las mutaciones, son potencialmente reversibles, tiene importantes implicaciones para la implementación de estrategias para la prevención de diferentes defectos congénitos sensibles a la deficiencia materna de ácido fólico.

Activism as leadership: Supporting progressive activists within our work
Authors:   Illinois State University, Weiser Gavin
Published: April 2023

This empirical work is driven by a study on the experiences and motivation of a group of college-aged student activists. Using a cohort of 14 millennial-aged activists who organized their work in response to a rise of right-wing authoritarianism in national and state politics, this paper presents recommendations for how student affairs professionals working in activities-oriented functional areas can leverage these experiences to build capacity around engagement, leadership development, sense of belonging, and work in partnership with these communities to challenge unjust practices within the academy. Further, I argue that in order to do our work of supporting students in their educational ventures, we can no longer claim notions of political neutrality.

Published: April 2023

Additive manufacturing has been one of the most used techniques in the recent years because of its capabilities to fabricate complex structures as required by customer and industrial need from a 3D computer-aided design model without the usage of any tooling, dies and heavy machinery makes it a step ahead in the present manufacturing techniques. In the current study the author’s focus on the welding or joining of additive manufactured Polylactic acid (PLA) parts made by Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). There are several techniques for welding these additive manufactured parts. This study mainly focuses on the joining of 3D printed PLA parts using a 3D pen and investigations on its mechanical properties experimentally. It is a very cheap and effective technique when compared to the other welding methods. This could overcome the drawback of small bed size in most 3D printers by joining smaller parts and it can also be used for repairing the defects caused during the 3D printing. Moreover the experimental testing of the mechanical properties also confirmed that the tensile, flexural and impact strength of 3D pen welded specimens retrieved above 70% of the strength to the original PLA specimen proving it to be a very effective method.
