Haematostaphis barteri est une espèce des savanes de l’Afrique tropicale qui fait objet d’usages multiples et qui joue un rôle socio-économique important pour les populations rurales. C’est une espèce d’Afrique tropicale, allant de la Côte d’Ivoire au Soudan, en passant par le Ghana, le Togo, le Bénin, le Nigéria, le Cameroun et le Tchad. Au Bénin, l’espèce est confinée le long de la chaîne de l’Atacora et fait partie des espèces ligneuses confrontées à un problème de régénération naturelle susceptible d’affecter sa diversité génétique. Dans la présente étude, des marqueurs moléculaires de type RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) ont été utilisés pour déterminer la structure génétique des populations de Haematostaphis barteri qui existent au Bénin. La diversité génétique révélée à partir de dix amorces est relativement importante (h = 0,250 ; HT = 0,295 ; Hs = 0,245). Par contre le coefficient de différenciation entre sous-populations est faible (FPT = 0,17) ; ce qui signifie que 17% de la diversité totale est inter sous-populations. Le flux de gènes estimé est modéré (Nm = 2,345 migrants par génération) indiquant un échange de graines et de pollens relativement modéré entre les sous-populations. En outre, trois différents groupes génétiques ont été obtenus avec une différenciation bien marquée des accessions du groupe de Boukombé par rapport aux deux autres groupes, indiquant l’existence d’une barrière génétique probablement due à la chaîne de l’Atacora et une limitation des échanges de graines et de pollens avec les autres sous-populations. Les allèles rares mis en évidence au niveau de quelques accessions du groupe génétique de Boukombé pourraient être utilisés, s’ils sont associés à des caractères morphologiques et biochimiques intéressants, dans des programmes de sélection et d’amélioration génétique.

Plantains (Musa spp) are among the most important cultivated horticultural crops in West Africa. Various varieties and cultivars are produced in Benin. This study aimed at evaluating the physical characteristics and some proximate composition of some plantain cultivars consumed in Benin. Physical parameters including weight of the bunch, number of hands and fingers, weight of hands and finger, pulp percentage and flour yield were assessed using five cultivars of plantain (Aloga, Aloga 2M, Gnivlan, Kpahissi, Orishele) and one cooking banana (Pelipita). In addition, color parameters, dry matter as well as total minerals contents were assessed for the pulp of the various cultivars. It came out that Kpahissi cultivars had heavier bunches and a lot of hands than the other cultivars while Aloga 2M had the highest weight of hands and fingers. Finger number varied from 2 to 12 among the six cultivars. The pulp percentage ranged from 51.3 to 70.71%. Kpahissi pulp was brighter but less yellow and red than the other pulps cultivars. Significant differences were observed in dry matter and total minerals contents of pulps with highest values for Pelipita pulp. This study provides baseline information on plantain diversity in terms of their physical characteristics in Benin. Results can be helpful in the choice of plantain bunches during purchasing.

Published: December 2022

La problématique de la contribution des agriculteurs aux charges financières de la vulgarisation agricole reste d’actualité dans les pays de l’Afrique subsaharienne marquée par la prédominance de petits exploitants agricoles vivant dans un contexte de pauvreté, d’insécurité alimentaire et d’un faible taux d’alphabétisation. La présente étude vise à analyser le consentement à payer (CAP) des agriculteurs pour suivre des vidéos de formation agricole. Cette étude a été conduite auprès de 173 agriculteurs dans 6 villages des communes de Dangbo et Adjohoun (Bénin). La Méthode d’Evaluation Contingente (MEC) a été utilisée pour recueillir le CAP des agriculteurs. L’analyse des données a été faite avec des statistiques descriptives et le modèle Tobit censuré. Les agriculteurs enquêtés sont prêts à payer en moyenne 250 F CFA (0.4 $ US) pour suivre une vidéo. Les résultats révèlent aussi que le genre, le niveau d’instruction, la fréquence des visites du conseiller agricole, l’accès au crédit agricole et le nombre d’années de pratique agricole affectent positivement le consentement à payer des agriculteurs. Aussi, le CAP des agriculteurs varie d’un village à un autre. Ces résultats donnent de l’espoir sur une possibilité de contribution des agriculteurs au financement des services de vulgarisation agricole ; ce qui favoriserait l’émergence de services privés de vulgarisation agricole pour le renforcement des systèmes d’innovation agricole. Les résultats obtenus sont conformes à plusieurs travaux scientifiques antérieurs qui ont montré que les caractéristiques socio-économiques des agriculteurs déterminent leur consentement à payer pour l’obtention de divers biens. L’originalité de la présente étude est qu’elle utilise la méthode d’évaluation contingente pour un service qui est resté longtemps par le passé public et gratuit.

Le maïs devient une priorité pour l’Etat béninois en raison de son importance pour l’alimentation et pour l’économie nationale. L’étude des effets des périodes de semis sur les performances de la variété de maïs QPM/FAABA a été réalisée dans la commune de Kérou. L’objectif de la présente étude est de déterminer une nouvelle période de semis du maïs face aux actuelles conditions climatiques. Pour réaliser cette étude, un Bloc Aléatoire Complet à trois (03) répétitions et à trois (03) traitements a été installé. Ces traitements sont constitués de : T1 : semis précoce (15 mai-15 juin) ; T2 : semis ‘’normal’’ (15 juin-10 juillet) et T3 : semis tardif (10 juillet-30 juillet). Les paramètres agronomiques évalués sont relatifs à la croissance végétative, au pourcentage d’infestation des plants par la chenille légionnaire (Spodoptera frugiperda) et au rendement en maïs grain. Il ressort de l’examen des résultats que le semis précoce (15 mai-15 juin) permet d’obtenir de meilleures hauteurs ‘’insertion épis’’ et hauteurs totales des plants. Cette même période de semis s’est aussi révélée meilleure concernant le rendement en maïs-grain (2,23 ± 2,01 t/ha). L’étude a révélé que les plants du semis tardif (10 juillet-30 juillet) sont plus vulnérables aux chenilles légionnaires avec 96 % de plants infestés. Les meilleurs taux de remplissage des épis ont été enregistrés au niveau du semis ‘’normal’’ (15 juin-10 juillet) et du semis précoce (15 mai-15 juin) avec respectivement 57,66% et 46,45 % d’épis remplis.

Published: December 2022

Sweet potato (SP) weevils, Cylas spp. are important pests of SP throughout the world and particularly in Africa. They cause damage to the crop as a result of their diet and reproduction. This study was undertaken to identify species of Cylas attached to SP production in southern Benin and to assess the distribution of the insects in study areas. A survey was conducted from October to December 2015 in fifteen districts of the departments of Mono, Couffo, Ouémé and Plateau in agro-ecological zones 6, 7 and 8 of Southern Benin. Weevil adults were collected alone in bulk but also along with infested vines and tuberous roots. Sweet potato vines and tuberous roots were incubated in laboratory for emergency of insect adults. Two species of Cylas were identified: C. puncticollis Boheman and C. brunneus Schoenherr. Cylas puncticollis were observed in 82.70% of total samples collected and were found in all districts prospected while C. brunneus were observed in 17.42% of the samples and were observed only in the districts of Adjohoun, Bopa, Houéyogbé, Ifangni and Klouékanmè. The highest incidence (100.00 ± 0.00%) and the lowest incidence (0.00 ± 0.00%) were recorded with C. puncticollis and C. brunneus, respectively, in the districts of Aplahoué, Comè, Sakété, Adja-Ouèrè and Toviklin. All SP farmers used only vine cuttings for planting, with 10% of them treating planting material with chemical insecticides. Eighty percent of farmers use planting materials taken in their own fields whereas 20% obtain them from neighboring fields either free of charge or purchase them. This study gave use more detailed information on the identity and distribution of sweet potato weevils in Benin and was useful for the establishment of control measures against them.

Published: December 2022

La Sécurité Alimentaire et Nutritionnelle (SAN) est un concept multidimensionnel, multisectoriel et complexe. L’identification de zones comparables aux fins d’évaluation d’impact de projets/programmes de SAN constitue un véritable défi pour les chercheurs. Les communes de Dangbo et Tori-Bossito, appartenant au même pôle de développement agricole du Sud-Bénin, ont été identifiées pour étudier leur comparabilité au regard des dimensions de la SAN relatifs à l’accès, le statut socioéconomique (SSE), les pratiques liées à l’Eau, Hygiène et Assainissement (PEHA) des ménages, mais aussi la malnutrition chronique (MC) des enfants. Les variables Accès de la Sécurité Alimentaire (ASA) et le SSE n’ont pas été significativement différents dans les deux zones (P > 0,05). Les pourcentages de ménages en insécurité alimentaire ont été 96,4% et 82,7% et ceux ayant un faible SSE, 82% et 82,7% respectivement dans Dangbo et Tori-Bossito. En revanche, les PEHA et la prévalence de la MC ont été significativement associées aux zones (P<0,05). La proportion de mères ayant une mauvaise pratique d’hygiène était significativement plus élevée à Tori-bossito (56,7%) qu’à Dangbo (25,2%). La prévalence de la MC a été de 25% à Tori-Bossito et 7, 2% à Dangbo. Il ressort de l’Analyse des Correspondances Multiples que les ménages de Dangbo s’opposent à ceux de Tori-Bossito sur plusieurs faits les caractérisant notamment les ordures enterrées dans les fosses ou brûlés, des mères ayant une bonne pratique d’hygiène de lavage des mains et d’évacuation des selles d’enfants, une source d’eau potable et des enfants non malnutris chroniques. En somme, les pratiques relatives à l’EHA et la MC des enfants constituent des facteurs de différenciation des deux zones. Les résultats de cette étude pourraient servir de référence à l’évaluation de l’efficacité des programmes visant à améliorer la SAN des communautés et s’avérer utiles à tous les intervenants en SAN.

Published: December 2022

La présente étude a été conduite afin d’évaluer l’efficacité d’extraits aqueux contre les populations de thrips, le rendement en graines et la résistance variétale de six cultivars de niébé. Les extraits aqueux étaient à base d’Hyptis suaveolens, d’Azadirachta indica, de Manihot esculenta, de Thevetia neriifolia et de Cymbopogon nardus. Un dispositif de Fisher en blocs éclatés a été installé auprès de six producteurs dans la commune de Djougou située au Nord-Ouest du Bénin. L’apparition et le nombre de thrips à 34, 41, 48, 55, 62 jours après semis (JAS), le poids de graines de niébé récoltées dans les parcelles expérimentales et le poids de mille graines de niébé étaient les données collectées, Elles étaient soumises à une analyse de variance univariée à trois facteurs (période, cultivar, extrait aqueux) et à la comparaison par paires des moyennes sur mesures répétées avec le test de Tukey au seuil de 5%. Tous les extraits aqueux sauf celui à base de citronnelle (Cymbopogon nardus) ont réduit très significativement (p < 0,0001), la population de thrips dans le cultivar Katché péha. Thevetia neriifolia, Hyptis suaveolens Manihot esculenta, Azadirachta indica et C. nardus ont été par ordre d’importance décroissante, les extraits aqueux les plus efficaces avec des niveaux de rendement très significativement différents (p < 0,0001). Ces niveaux variaient de 885,76 kg/ha à 587,06 kg/ha comparativement à celui du témoin qui a été de 387,28 kg/ha. Les cultivars Katché peha, puis Katché sôwôho, Kpodjiguèguè et Toura pera, ainsi que Katché peha nan soori et Katché sénégal ont été par ordre d’importance décroissant du rendement en graines décroissant, les plus productifs. Les extraits aqueux sont efficaces à divers degrés et peuvent être recommandés. L’étude peut être poursuivie au champ contre les punaises et les pucerons et aussi pour le devenir des graines face aux bruches en stock.
Rentabilité de la production du riz sous différentes mesures de Conservation des Eaux et des Sols (CES) au Nord Bénin

Published: December 2022

Cet article vise à analyser l’effet des mesures de Conservation des Eaux et des Sols (CES) sur la performance économique de la production du riz paddy dans les communes de Malanville et de Kouandé au Bénin. Cent (100) riziculteurs ont été sélectionnés de façon aléatoire et enquêtés. Des données quantitatives (inputs et outputs de production) et qualitatives (sexe, Commune, localisation des terres, contrainte d'accès au service de vulgarisation, accès au crédit pour la riziculture, etc.) ont été collectés à l’aide d’un questionnaire structuré. Les indicateurs de la rentabilité économique puis le modèle de régressions simultanées apparemment indépendante (SUR) ont permis d’analyser ces données. Les résultats obtenus suggèrent que la marge nette moyenne des riziculteurs était de 159,792 FCFA/Ha et que le taux de rentabilité interne moyen de la zone d’étude est de 0,31. Par ailleurs, les cordons pierreux et les diguettes filtrantes sont les principales techniques des mesures CES utilisées par les producteurs de riz dans la zone d’étude. La construction des diguettes filtrantes a un effet significatif et positif au seuil de 10% sur la marge nette des riziculteurs. Par ailleurs, l’utilisation des cordons pierreux a un effet négatif mais non significatif sur le taux de rentabilité interne des riziculteurs. La bonne application de cette technique semble être très couteuse du point de vue de la maintenance ou de l’investissement initial, ce qui rendait les riziculteurs adoptants incapables de payer les intérêts contractés sur les prêts.

Published: December 2022

Prices volatility is one of the critical problems that highly affects smallholder producer’s income; therefore, it might contribute to deeper poverty. This study applies portfolio analysis to identify the optimal portfolio of governance structures (GSs) selection for paddy marketing. Data were collected in Benin in 2015 from 300 rice producers randomly selected. The results indicate that the optimal portfolio of two GSs consists of selling 17% and 83% of the production through spot market and formal contract, respectively. The best portfolio of three GSs consists of selling 13%, 57%, and 30% of the production through spot market, formal contract, and farmer association. Finally, a portfolio that consists of selling 10%, 25%, 43%, and 22% of the production through spot market, informal contract, formal contract, and farmers association, respectively, is the best one in the case of four GSs. Formal contract is included in all the best portfolios identified and always presents the highest percentage. Therefore, these formal contracts can be used to enhance rice producers’ revenues and reduce price fluctuation risk. The portfolios developed in this research can be used to advise paddy producers for a better marketing decision.

L’Acer 35EC est le nom commercial d’un des insecticides (acaricide binaire composé de 20 g/l de lambda-cyha- lothrine et 15 g d’acétamipride) utilisés dans le programme phytosanitaire du cotonnier au nord Bénin. Dans le but de con- tribuer aux programmes d’évaluation des impacts écotoxicologiques des pesticides agricoles dans les écosystèmes aquatiques récepteurs du bassin cotonnier béninois, la présente étude a été initiée. Elle vise à déterminer en condition de laboratoire la toxicité aigüe et subaigüe de l’Acer 35EC, de la lambda-cyhalothrine (la plus toxique de ses matières actives) et d’un cocktail (de composition semblable à l’Acer commercial : 20 g de lambda-cyhalothrine + 15 g d’acétamipride dissous dans 1 l d’acétone) chez les œufs et les adultes matures (géniteurs) de Clarias gariepinus, excellent modèle biologique de nos eaux au regard de sa forte représentativité dans les milieux récepteurs. Ainsi, des tests d’exposition à ces biocides ont été effectués en aquariums sur les œufs fécondés et les géniteurs femelles de C. gariepinus, conformément aux lignes directrices 203 et 212 de l’OCDE. Il ressort de ces investigations que, aussi bien avec les œufs que les géniteurs, les taux de survie sont, quel que soit le pesticide utilisé, inversement proportionnels aux concentrations nominales testées (p<0,05). Chez les œufs, la lambda-cyhalothrine est plus toxique (CL50-48h = 0,150 ppm) comparativement au Cocktail (CL50-96h = 13,26 ppm) et à l’Acer 35 EC (CL50-96h = 73,54 ppm). Chez les géniteurs, l’Acer 35EC (CL50-96h = 0,175 ppm) s’est révélé au moins 420 fois plus toxique que chez les œufs. Par ailleurs, des troubles comportementaux de même que des lésions cutanées ont été également observés chez les géniteurs exposés à l’Acer 35EC, indiquant une altération probable de certaines fonctions vitales, notamment nerveuses et immunitaires.

Authors:   Department of Community Medicine, Goa Medical College, Goa, India, Sawant Dessai Bhargav P , Shah Hemangini K ,   Department of Community Medicine, Goa Medical College, Goa, India
Published: December 2022

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has rendered a large proportion of the workforce unable to commute to work to mitigate the virus's spread. Employees now based at home might like to continue to Work From Home (WFH). These may be fully, or in some capacity, for the foreseeable future, especially in the IT sector. In view of a sudden change in the work environment, we aimed to study the effects of WFH on Information Technology (IT) workers. Methods: Astudy was conducted using a pre-designed questionnaire to compare WFH with routine work and assess its impact on the worker. A total of 876 IT workers consented and participated in the study. They consisted of workers from Bengaluru, Gurugram, and Pune. IT workers who had worked for more than one year in the office and more than six months in WFH during preceding period were eligible for the study. The data was collected via google forms through snowballing technique. Results: The study included 876 Information Technology workers, of which 564 (64%) were males and 312 (36%) were females. About 324 (37%) of the study participants found the work environment suitable for working. A significant lower proportion of stress and productivity outcomes was seen among males as compared to females. About 336 (38%) would prefer working from home even if the pandemic subsides. Conclusion: WFH has had a negative effect on workers' productivity and work-life balance, especially among females who have been hampered with dual responsibilities of work and home care. Hence most females want to return to working in offices.

In terms of international integration processes in the system of higher education of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan and an increase in the proportion of foreign students, the issue of development of the communicative competence of future specialists becomes crucially acute. An analysis of foreign practice shows that the developed foreign concepts of teaching the “English language” academic discipline are being implemented with great difficulties. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the attempt made by the authors to answer the research question posed in the article related to the substantiation of the conceptual foundations for the formation of communicative competence in the course of studying the “English language” academic discipline using multimedia technologies. The assessment of the reliability of the presented results is based on an integrative approach, on the methods of analysis and synthesis of scientific literature. A comparative analysis of foreign experience in the formation of students’ communicative competence shows that the problem under study has not been sufficiently developed. The components of communicative competence are substantiated. The existing foreign concepts of the formation of communicative competence are analyzed. The analysis of domestic and foreign studies made it possible to establish that most of the scientific provisions put forward in the concept, characterizing the features of the formation of communicative competence using multimedia technologies, have been confirmed in other studies and do not contradict them. The results of the study are important for the theory and methodology of teaching English in higher education.

The large number of private universities in Indonesia creates a quality gap. The unification of private universities is a solution to improve the quality of private higher education. One of the successful ones is the Surya Sehat Midwifery Academy Surabaya with Dr Soetomo University Surabaya. However, the unification process still needs to be examined more deeply about the basic considerations for the unification between the two private universities and the legal consequences of the unification. The unification of the Surya Sehat Midwifery Academy with Dr Soetomo University resulted in the loss of the Surya Sehat Midwifery Academy in the higher education database and merged into Dr Soetomo University into a midwifery study program at the health sciences faculty. which is quite long, namely three years, causing legal uncertainty in the field. This should not need to happen if the government, in this case the Ministry of Education and Culture, applies a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for licensing and furthermore to avoid service barriers for alumni of the Surya Sehat Midwifery Academy Surabaya, it is necessary to include alumni data in the health sciences faculty database so that it is physically integrated. as well as virtually.
SETTLEMENT OF MEDICAL DISPUTES THROUGH THE FORUM OF THE INDONESIAN MEDICAL DISCIPLINE HONORY ASSEMBLY (MKDKI) BASED ON THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 66 OF LAW NUMBER 29 OF 2004 CONCERNING MEDICAL PRACTICE
Authors: Dwi Atmoko
Published: December 2022

Doctors are one of the professions that get the public spotlight, because the nature of their service to the community is very complex. Lately, many people have been highlighting the performance of doctors, both the spotlight delivered directly to the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) as the parent organization of doctors, and broadcast through print and electronic media. Disputes between doctors and patients often arise because of the inharmonious relationship between doctors or hospitals and patients. Health disputes that begin with a gap in perceptions and interests between patients and health service providers (doctors and/or hospitals) often lead to legal settlements. There are several ways that patients can choose to solve their problems, one of which refers to Article 66 of Law Number 29 of 2004 concerning Medical Practice. In this study, the author uses a normative legal research method. In addition to using the normative legal method, the author also uses a legal approach and a concept approach in order to provide answers to the problems studied. The results showed that the Indonesian Medical Discipline Honorary Council (MKDKI) was the institution authorized to determine whether there were errors made by doctors and dentists in the application of medical and dental disciplines, and to impose sanctions. The procedure for complaints as referred to in Article 66 of Law Number 29 of 2009 concerning Medical Practice is carried out by MKDKI based on Indonesian Medical Council Regulation No. 16/KKI/PER/VIII/2006 concerning Procedures for Handling Cases of Alleged Violations of Discipline of Doctors and Dentists which has undergone several changes, including the Regulation of the Indonesian Medical Council Number 20 of 2014 concerning Procedures for Handling Cases of Alleged Violations of Discipline of Doctors and Dentists and Regulations Indonesian Medical Council Number 50 of 2017 concerning Procedures for Handling Discipline Complaints for Doctors and Dentists. The procedure for the complaint in question is to make a complaint, establish a Preliminary Examination Council, establish a Disciplinary Examination Council and finally prove.

Published: December 2022

This paper aims to analyze the legal aspects of the execution of tax arrears assets that have been tied to Mortgages in State-Owned Banks. This type of research is normative legal research using a statutory approach and a conceptual approach. Primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials were obtained through library studies and supplemented by interviews. The collected legal materials are then analyzed qualitatively. The results showed that the tax office has the right to receive prepayment for the execution of the taxpayer's property due to a tax debt. State-owned banks also have the right to receive repayments first compared to other creditors for the execution of mortgage objects, as a result of default by the debtor. In this case, the Tax Office and the State-Owned Bank both have the right to receive payment first compared to other parties. Based on the applicable regulations, there is no article that specifically and in detail regulates which payment should be prioritized if the Tax Office and State-Owned Bank both have an interest in the execution of the same object for the settlement of tax debts and debts to creditors. Therefore, it is necessary to coordination between the Tax Office and State-Owned Banks to obtain solutions in solving problems, with consequences that are not detrimental to the Tax Office and State-Owned Banks.

Maintaining fitness and a healthy bodyweight can enhance police officer safety, de-escalation, and subsequently survivability in addition to overall health and wellness. Within a law enforcement agency, it can be difficult to implement a health and wellness program without the support of the police chief and command staff. However, support for health and wellness programs and the perceived impact on the job by law enforcement police chiefs is not well known. This article analyzes police chiefs’ perspectives on police officer physical fitness and bodyweight, and their impact on multiple aspects of the job, as well as barriers to implementing health and wellness programs. A survey of 425 Texas police chiefs indicated 99.5% of respondents believed it was important or somewhat important for officers to be at a healthy bodyweight. The top potential barriers to officers’ physical fitness represented by police chiefs were individual unwillingness and laziness. A more thorough understanding of perceptions and beliefs by law enforcement leadership can help enhance the alignment of programs, impact habits, and ultimately influence daily choices that officers make. These perceptions can also assist in the development of programs to further support officer readiness, safety, and survivability, as well as overall health.

Authors: Sánchez-Domínguez Eduardo , Cruz-Pérez Fabian de Jesús
Published: December 2022

Introducción: El ruido es el sonido desagradable que afecta la salud y que es factor de riesgo para hipertensión y cardiopatía isquémica. La aviación genera ruido y contaminación del aire que daña la audición a nivel mundial y a quienes trabajan en los aeropuertos, por lo que debe ser analizado. Sobre el tema se han publicado trabajos diversos, más sin embargo son pocos los estudios hechos en zonas aledañas a bases aéreas y brindándose poca atención preventiva a la población que labora dentro de ellas.

Objetivo: Determinar la existencia de niveles de ruido ambiental dañino en instalaciones de trabajo no operativas de bases aéreas militares.

Material y métodos: Se midió el ruido ambiental en turnos laborales por 7 días, en las bases aéreas de Santa Lucía, Mex. y Zapopan, Jal., con sonómetro ambiental Extech® Mod. 407732, clase 2, normas ANSI y IEC 651 Type 2 y calibrador 407744 de 94 ó 114 dB., en áreas expuestas al ruido cercanas a la pista de aterrizaje en horas de máxima actividad aérea.

Resultados: Se encontró ruido dañino no satisfactorio y peligroso entre los 68 dB y 82.06 dB de nivel equivalente sonoro de ruido (LEQ), fuera de norma para ruido ambiental.

Conclusiones: Los niveles de ruido encontrado se salen de los parámetros aceptables de exposición al ruido ambiental en la comunidad, por tanto resulta nocivo y se debe contar con medios de protección y programas preventivos para evitar la pérdida de la audición.

As the consumer interest and market for plant-based meat alternatives grows, understanding the nutritional differences between alternative and traditional meats is essential. This article describes an untargeted gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS)-based metabolomics approach that compares the chemical profiles of a popular plant-based meat alternative and grass-fed ground beef using a GC system coupled to a GC–MS device. The samples were derivatized to simplify the chromatographic process and render the polar metabolites more volatile for GC–MS analysis. Statistical and multivariate analysis of the acquired and processed GC–MS data revealed that 90% of the annotated compounds differed between the plant-based alternative meat and the grass-fed ground beef samples. The ground beef and plant-based products each contained several compounds that were found in much smaller quantities, or not at all, in the other product. These results indicate differences in organic composition even though the nutritional labels on the back of the products were nearly identical. Heat maps, principal component analysis (PCA) score plots, variable importance plots (VIPs), and the clustering of compounds into metabolite classes provided further insights into the differences between the two types of meat products. The biological significance of the comparative data was studied using online databases and pathway analysis tools.
An Adventurous Journey Around the Thermodynamics of Liquid Chromatography
Authors: Sepsey Annamária
Published: December 2022

The characterization of the thermodynamics of separations, especially the calculation of the standard molar enthalpy and entropy through the van ’t Hoff plot, is a popular approach among chiral chromatographers, although it is already known that this representation was adopted into chromatography without real critical consideration. In our work, chiral chromatography is modeled with the column-coupling method to obtain the contribution of each adsorption site. Besides the original problems of the van ’t Hoff plot, it was found that the respective change in entropy (ΔS) and change in enthalpy (ΔH) values of each adsorption site differs significantly from the values obtained when both adsorption sites are present. The circumstances of the chromatographic adsorption were also examined to see whether the calculated values are important, or unique values are obtained for each system. Pressure especially affects the determined values, thus the chromatographic system used—high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC)—has to be distinguished. We also have to ask: Is there any suitable equation that is less problematic to calculate thermodynamic quantities?

A REVIEW OF THE EFFECTS OF MAJOR NUTRIENT SUPPLEMENTATION ON RICE UNDER SALINITY
Authors: ZONAYET Md. , PAUL ALOK KUMAR , SYFULLAH KHALID , MAMUN MOHAMMAD MOHIUDDIN AL
Published: December 2022

Salinity stress affects cultivable areas in coastal districts to varying degrees. Bangladesh's coastal and offshore areas include tidal areas, estuaries, and river floodplains in the south along the Bay of Bengal. Agricultural land use in these areas is very poor, accounting for roughly half of the national average. Bangladesh's main food crop is rice. Rice seed germination, plant height, tiller numbers, and leaf area index are all negatively affected by salinity. Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the most important cereal crop in terms of cultivated area and total production. It accounts for nearly 20% of the world's dietary energy supply. Salinity is an important abiotic ecological factor that reduces rice and other plant growth and productivity globally. Soil salinity has a global impact on agricultural productivity. Soil salinization is caused by climate change, and the dynamic scarcity of freshwater has harmed crop production worldwide. Proper nutrient management could increase agricultural production throughout saline areas by reducing the negative effects of salinity. This research can be carried out to determine which nutrient element (or elements) benefit rice the most when it is salted.

Authors: KHANAM YASMIN , SINGH YOGENDER
Published: December 2022

Thermal tolerance of prosobranch snails namely pond Bellamyabengalensis, Gabbiaorcula and Digoniostoma pulchella were studied in freshwater ponds namely Gajner and Kodemdesar pond situated near Bikaner, Rajasthan (Indian desert) as well as under laboratory conditions. Prosobranch snails were more sensitive to low temperature. The absolute lethal temperature for B. bengalensis, G. orcula and D. pulchella was noted as 100C, 50C and 150C or less respectively, while these could survive at higher range of even 450C, though under stress. None of prosobranch snail was found to be active below 50C and above 450C. In field also the population was reduced close to nil in January extremely low and extremely high during June; when water temp. was noted as 160C and 380C respectively during the study hours. However, the minimum and maximum temperatures over diurnal cycle during these months are expected to be still more extreme as evident from meteorological records of the region.

The Arctic Ocean: Round Two
Authors:   Geosciences Professional Services Inc., Kappel Ellen
Published: December 2022

Every decade or so, it is worth revisiting a topic that we previously covered in Oceanography to provide the community with updates on progress. This special issue on The New Arctic Ocean is the latest example. In 2011, we published a special issue on The Changing Arctic Ocean (https://tos.org/​oceanography/​issue/​volume-24-issue-03) featuring some of the advances made in polar science resulting from the International Polar Year of 2007–2008. Articles in this current special issue further explore the continuing, profound, and increasingly rapid changes occurring in the Arctic Ocean, illuminated by another decade of advances in data collection, analysis, and computation, and enriched by infusions of Indigenous knowledge. Continued warming of the “new” Arctic Ocean, which is already exhibiting further sea ice decline and “Atlantification,” more coastal erosion, the potential for more frequent and larger harmful algal blooms, and alterations to ecosystem functioning, among other significant changes, is of great consequence to local coastal communities’ food security and infrastructure, and some changes, such as sea ice decline, likely have global implications.
