A study on processing conditions of fermented acerola juice
Authors: Le Thanh T.
Published: September 2021

This study investigated some key processing steps of fermented acerola juice, including variety, maturity, enzyme treatment, sugar concentration and fermentation and pasteurization conditions. One or two-factor experiments were randomly designed to determine the most suitable processing variables based on the investigated parameters, including the content of vitamin C, sensory quality and physicochemical properties of the resultant juice. The results showed that the Brazil variety (Malpiphia emarginata D.C) had highest vitamin C content (1567.9 mg/100 g), followed by sour variety (Malpiphia glabra L.) (882.9 mg/100 g) and sweet variety (Malpiphia punicifolia L.) (630.4 mg/100 g). However, according to sensory evaluation results, the sour acerola juice after fermentation had the highest overall score, indicating to be the most suitable for processing. The fermented juice of sour acerola variety at 100% maturity had the highest sensory score and vitamin C content compared to other levels of maturity. In order to enhance the clarity of acerola juice, the addition of 0.15% pectinase enzyme (Pectinex ultra SPL, Novozymes) was the most effective compared to 0.05 and 0.1% (w/w) enzyme concentrations. The fermentation at 15oC in 48 hours with 22% sugar concentration and 0.1% commercial yeast (Saf-instant, France) obtained the highest quality fermented juice. The fermented product was pasteurized at 80oC for 10 minutes to stop fermentation process as well as to retain the color and taste of the fermented juice. The good quality of the fermented acerola juice, in terms of physicochemical, sensory and microbiological properties could be maintained for at least 6 months.

Hormesis, screening and practical use of biostimulators in agriculture
Authors:   Institute of Genetics, Physiology and Plant Protection, Republic of Moldova, Dascaliuc Alexandru
Published: August 2021

The term hormesis describes the biphasic response of any biological system to increasing the dose of the stress factor of a different nature, characterized in that low doses have stimulating, beneficial effects. In contrast, high doses cause harmful, inhibitory effects. The hormonal response is practically universal, being stimulated by the action of toxic substances, heavy metal ions, hormones, including physical factors. The standard type of response to different factors suggests installing these evolving mechanisms, so they are of particular interest in elucidating plant adaptation mechanisms to various stressors, including developing screening methods and practical use of biostimulators. The practical use of hormesis principles was the theoretical basis for elaboration and rational use of the biostimulator Reglalg in agriculture.

The antennae reaction of the males Heliothis armigera was estimated by means of the electroantenographic apparatus to the components obtained from the extract of the pheromone glands of the females. It was found that the main component (Z11-16Al) caused a well-pronounced reaction on the male antennae. It has been shown that the pheromone emitted by the females of the native population does not differ from the pheromone emitted by the females of the species Heliothis armigera, which lives in the geographical area of the Asian continent. The seasonal sexual cycle of the species Heliothis armigera was determined in the conditions of the natural habitat of the Republic of Moldova.

The aim of this work was to test the seeds of the Kuyalnik variety (harvest of 2019) for the presence of pathogens of the genera Fusarium, Myrothecium, Alternaria, Penicillium, and Aspergillus by molecular genetic methods (PCR, nested-PCR). The use of species-specific primers for these pathogens allowed to detect 6 species of Fusarium (F. verticillioides, F. avenaceum, F. oxysporum, F. equiseti, F. sporotrichioides, F. incarnatum) in the seeds of the disease-resistant variety of winter wheat. It was found that the seeds of this variety of winter wheat also contained a large amount of Alternaria alternata, and a trace amount of Penicillium spp. Phytopathogens of the Myrothecium spp. genus and of the Aspergillus parasiticus were not identified in the DNA isolated from the seeds of the winter wheat variety Kuyalnik. The presence of such a diversity of fungal pathogens in the seeds of the resistant winter wheat variety Kuyalnik requires treatment of seeds with fungicides.

Published: August 2021

The first step for evolutionary studies is usually to establish a hypothesis of relationships between members of the study group. After this, there is a wide range of possibilities depending on the researcher's interest. This contribution presents the generalities of some of the methodologies most commonly used in macroevolutionary studies: the molecular clock and the reconstruction of ancestral characters. Information on other useful techniques for comparative studies that use a phylogenetic framework is also presented, such as phylogenetic signal estimation, independent contrasts, orthonormal decomposition, and phylogenetic principal component analysis.
Métodos de reconstrucción filogenética I: máxima verosimilitud
Authors: Duchen Pablo
Published: August 2021

Phylogenetic inference is widely used in evolutionary biology, aiming to find evolutionary relationships between different species and report the result in the form of a phylogenetic tree (phylogeny). There are several statistical methods used for phylogenetic inference. In this review, the method of maximum likelihood for phylogenetic reconstruction is presented. This technique consists of finding the likelihood of multiple candidate phylogenies, and report the one with the highest likelihood as a representative of the evolutionary relationships of a group of species. In this paper, the likelihood calculation of a phylogeny from multiple-species DNA sequences is reviewed. Also, some key DNA mutation models to calculate transition probabilities between nucleotides are presented. Such transition probabilities are used in the likelihood calculation of a given phylogeny. A simple example is shown to illustrate the necessary steps to infer a phylogeny, as well as the most common software for maximum likelihood inference for larger DNA alignments.
The Participation of Indigenous Australians in Legal Education, 2001–18
Authors: Hobbs Harry , Williams George
Published: August 2021

Indigenous Australians face many challenges in accessing and completing a legal education in Australia. Addressing this problem requires a clear empirical picture. However, no comprehensive study exploring the participation of Indigenous Australians in legal education has been conducted for almost two decades. This article rectifies this by presenting the results of a survey on Indigenous Australian students, graduates and staff members within Australian law schools. We find that while Indigenous Australians are increasingly commencing legal studies and graduating from law school, inequities and challenges persist.
Reconsidering Independent Advice: A Framework for Analysing Two-Party and Three-Party Cases
Authors: Maher Felicity , Puttick Stephen
Published: August 2021

What is the significance of the receipt of independent advice by the plaintiff in a claim to set aside a transaction on the basis of a vitiating factor – such as duress, undue influence or unconscionable conduct? The generally held view has been that it is highly significant. Indeed, the receipt of advice has been understood as an answer to many such claims. The High Court of Australia’s decision in Thorne v Kennedy apparently changes this. Although that case concerned advice in relation to binding financial agreements under the Family Law Act 1975 (Cth), the decision has important implications across banking, commercial and other areas of practice. This article, then, offers a reanalysis of this question in light of this decision and other developments. The authors propose a new framework – based around two key questions – for conceptualising the function and significance of independent advice in a particular case. The article considers and develops this framework with regard to the main general law vitiating factors in both two-party and three-party cases.
MAHABAT KHAN MOSQUE - AN ISLAMIC SYMBOL OF PEACE
Authors: Qureshi Shabbirullah , Khan M. Ashraf
Published: September 2021

It is ironical that the Mughals are remembered as warriors yet their breathtaking architecture offers an inspiration for regional peace. Separatist narratives may attempt to emphasise the ideological differences in the Indian subcontinent, but the centuries-old resonance of architectural magnificence of the Taj Mahal in India and the Shalimar Gardens in Pakistan simply mocks any divisions. It is within this perspective that the preservation and restoration of the Mahabat Khan Mosque in Peshawar deserves more attention than it has been accorded. Papers published so far have served well by detailing its history and features, but its significance as the western-most unifier for the sub-continent has been left unexplored. This article aims to highlight the link that its architectural features create with the Mughal buildings of the whole subcontinent. Photographs from unique angles are shared to highlight this commonality and thus serve as a counter narrative of regional unity based on a common Islamic architectural heritage. Also included is a fresh inventory of its state of disrepair, based on a survey conducted by students of City University in 2019, to revoke attention towards its restoration. Finally, recommendations are offered to address the delay in relocation of surrounding shops that is currently hindering its repair.
TRADITIONAL VALUES VERSUS MODEM CONVENIENCES: AN ANALYSIS OF TRADITIONAL COURTYARD AND CONTEMPORARY HOUSE DESIGN TRENDS IN LAHORE
Authors: Tahseen Fariha
Published: September 2021

Courtyard house, as one of oldest forms of housing tradition, is a remarkable form of residential architecture due to its attributes of naturally climate controlled spaces, spaces of peace and seclusion and as a central nucleus (a social space) around which domestic life revolves. In Lahore, visible transformation of housing trends has continued after independence (1947) with several emerging issues of growing population, rapid densification and exponentially rising land value. By 1960s and 70s, bungalow style of housing with a flavor of modernism inspired middle and upper middle income people to adopt modern life style. All these facts impelled courtyard style of housing into complete disuse. Researchers and designers are certainly aware of the need to cope with local climatic and energy crisis problems in residential architecture to enhance physical comfort of inhabitants which needs to analyze design and performance patterns of traditional courtyard houses, in comparison to modern detached houses. This research paper, through analysis of two local case studies in Lahore, explores how a courtyard house can be revived with minimal interventions to achieve climatically responsive houses that would be address adequately the climatic concerns. Findings on evolution and aspects of housing typologies (courtyard house, detached and semidetached houses), followed by comparative case studies analysis, and field investigation through questionnaire and interviews supplement research methodology for this paper.

Uma doença crônica infantil representa uma grande fonte de stress para os pacientes e suas famílias. O presente estudo objetivou avaliar o ajustamento psicológico de crianças/adolescentes com doenças crônicas e de seus cuidadores, assim como o papel mediador dos estilos parentais. Participaram desta pesquisa 41 crianças/adolescentes com enfermidades crônicas e 72 crianças “saudáveis” e seus respectivos pais/cuidadores. Os resultados mostraram que os grupos não diferiram entre si com relação ao ajustamento psicológico tanto das crianças/adolescentes quanto dos cuidadores. Também se constatou que a negligência e punição inconsistente mediaram a relação entre o desajustamento infantil e o parental. Conclui-se sobre a natureza multideterminada e multidirecional do ajustamento psicológico, assim como a importância de intervenções psicológicas hospitalares que promovam práticas parentais positivas.

A pesquisa investigou características da violência contra a mulher por parceiro íntimo de maneira online e offline, seus impactos no relacionamento em questão e no enfrentamento desta violência. Participaram doze mulheres com alta escolaridade que reportaram terem experienciado violência em um relacionamento com um parceiro íntimo e que fizessem uso de pelo menos uma rede social virtual no momento do relacionamento relatado. O procedimento de coleta de dados foi por meio da técnica bola de neve, utilizando-se da entrevista episódica. A análise temática foi usada para categorizar os dados. Nos resultados, dois temas foram identificados: (a) violência offline no relacionamento; e (b) violência online no relacionamento. O primeiro tema indicou que os tipos de violência experienciados foram físicos, psicológicos e sexuais. Características como “isolamento social”, “medo de reagir”, “culpabilização da vítima” e a “violência como um ciclo” foram percebidas de maneira offline. O segundo tema apontou para o uso da internet no relacionamento como ferramenta de controle pelo parceiro, como meio de registro de provas da violência e como facilitador de acesso à informação. Sugere-se que novas pesquisas abordem diferentes variáveis sociodemográficas, a fim de investigar percepções variadas acerca da violência online e offline em um relacionamento romântico.

Breast cancer is one of the most leading causes of death in females all over the world. Although, the incidence rate of breast cancer is low, the death proportion is relatively high. For breast cancer patients, the recurrence ratio is rare, yet it still happens. The highest risk of recurrence usually happens at the early time of treatment, and its severeness depends on the diagnosed stage and the size of the tumor. However, the recurrence prognostic of breast cancer still limited due to the poor prediction strength of input data. Therefore, in this study we used four independent data sets (n = 793) with the same chipsets (HG-U133A) of breast cancer patients to investigate a 67 gene signature used in further building the prognostic model for breast cancer patients. Our results ﬁnally conﬁrmed that a 67 gene set was signiﬁcantly associated with the recurrence (RFS) (p = 1.66e−17), and overall survival (OS) (p = 9.27e−06). Besides, the gene signature also correlated with survival outcomes, such as RFS (p = 0.00167), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) (p < 0.001). Remarkably, our classiﬁcation analysis results reveal that the breast cancer patients who were categorized into the low-risk group tend to have signiﬁcantly associated with the longer recurrence time in both training and validation data sets. In conclusion, the 67 gene signature should be considered as potential candidates to be used in building up models or integrated into the current treatment regime for breast cancer.
A Brief Introduction to Causal Inference

Published: September 2021

Causal inference has been of interest in economics for many decades with a great deal of notable work like the Granger’s causality which directly lead to a Nobel Prize in Economics. The question of cause and effect is of paramount importance in making high-stake decisions such as economic policies. Besides, in the last ten years, causal inference in artiﬁcial intelligence has gradually become a mainstream with remarkable work such as the do-calculus by Judea Pearl. In this paper, we would like to discuss some fundamental ideas in causal inference.
Lactational Metformin Treatment in Mouse Dams Ameliorates Maternal High-Fat Diet-induced Metabolic Complications in Male Offspring

Published: September 2021

Maternal obesity/diabetes severely affects the offspring’s metabolism not only during the fetal and early life development but also later on in the childhood and adulthood stages. Recent evidence suggested that maternal metformin treatment during pregnancy and breastfeeding might provide long-term metabolic beneﬁts on offspring’s glucose homeostasis. We employed a mouse model of maternal overnutrition induced by high fat diet (HFD) to investigate whether an early metformin treatment in mouse dams during lactation period attenuates the maternal HFD-induced metabolic complications in male offspring. The results showed that male offspring from metformin-exposed mothers during suckling period displayed lower body weight and decreased white fat contents. Furthermore, these male offspring had lower blood glucose levels, decreased hyperinsulinemia, enhanced glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. Moreover, we found that short-term metformin treatment during lactation period in mouse dams solely improved the glucose tolerance of male offspring exposed with high fat diet (HFD) during both in utero and early postnatal stages, which might primarily result from an increase in insulin secretion. However, this metformin treatment in mouse dams was enabled to abolish most of the metabolic complications of the male offspring exposed with HFD during lactation period. Together, these ﬁndings suggest that an early intervention in mouse dams by metformin treatment during lactation period may provide long-term metabolic beneﬁts in regulation of male offspring’s glucose homeostasis.

Published: September 2021

These years, the debate surrounding the role of the ﬁrst language (L1) in the second/foreign language (L2) classrooms in general and in English ones has been a controversial issue. On one hand, people support the idea that the inﬂuence of mother tongue should be excluded from second language acquisition. Meanwhile, the component of English-only method emphasizes the signiﬁcance from the use of L1 in English classes. This paper aims to investigate the positive inﬂuences of the use of Vietnamese in English learning process. From this point, two main things will be demonstrated. Firstly, using Vietnamese has a facilitating role to play in the classroom and can actually boost students’ learning. And secondly, there are good reasons for teachers and students to use Vietnamese to fully suit the context of speciﬁc lessons. To conduct this study, both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used. First of all, an online survey was conducted to collect realistic information from the students’ perspective. On the other hand, there were some in-depth interviews for teachers and tutors to express their experience as well as their own ideas about this issue. Finally, two separate classes were formally observed when they took a sample lesson which was taught in different methods. At the end of the course, a small test was provided to students to examine how much they understood their lesson. All the statistics and information received was analyzed, then mentioned in the paper.

Infrastruktur merupakan modal utama yang harus dimiliki negara. Pembangunan infrastruktur mutlak diperlukan terutama dalam upaya meningkatkan perekonomian suatu daerah. Dengan adanya infrastruktur dapat mempermudah aktifitas ekonomi masyarakat dan juga meningkatkan produktifitas serta output/pendapatan. Infrastruktur ekonomi merupakan aset fisik yang menyediakan jasa dan digunakan dalam produksi dan konsumsi final yang meliputi public utilities (telekomunikasi, air minum, sanitasi dan gas), public works (jalan, bendungan dan saluran irigasi dan drainase) serta sektor transportasi (jalan kereta api, angkutan pelabuhan dan lapangan terbang).Pembangunan infrastruktur memiliki karakteristik monopoli alamiah, dimana skala ekonomis yang diperlukan untuk menyediakan infrastruktur tersebut sedemikian besar sehingga diperlukan keterlibatan pemerintah dalam mengalokasikan sumber daya dalam pengelolaannya, baik secara langsung maupun dengan bekerjasama dengan pihak swasta.

The low publication rate of Indonesian researchers in reputable international journals, particularly in arts and humanities,is caused, among others, by difficulties they faced in producing precise expository texts in English, which are differentfrom texts in Indonesian. The present study examines lexical bundles in the corpora of English and Indonesian researcharticles (RA) on literature and linguistics to describe the similarities and differences of conventionalized phraseology inthe scientific genre of English and Indonesian by using corpus software, namely Sketch Engine. The study focuses onthe frequency, structural and functional characteristics of lexical bundles using a mixed-method research design. TheEnglish corpus comprises 1,351,048 words derived from 124 RA, while the Indonesian corpus consists of 637,910 wordscollected from 124 RA. We found that three-word lexical bundles are more prevalent than four-word lexical bundles inboth corpora. Based on the structural forms, prepositional-based bundles are the most frequent form in English RA, whilenoun-based bundles are the most common form in Indonesian RA. There were no participant-oriented bundles foundin the Indonesian RA corpus in terms of functional classification, whereas the English RA corpus involved more variedfunctional categories of lexical bundles. The findings provide an understanding of phraseological combinations in Englishand Indonesian scientific writing, characterizing disciplinary discourse as well as native and non-native English speakers’rhetorical style, and have pedagogical implications for EAP practitioners.
