Authors: - Yukthapriya R , - Arun Kumar Y M
Published: September 2024

An earthquake is known as a devastating and feared calamity on Earth due to the sudden release of energy from beneath the surface, causing movement in the crust. This movement subject structures in contact with the ground to seismic forces. To resist the lateral forces produced by earthquake and wind we are providing shear walls and friction dampers.This paper aims to study the behavior of high-rise irregular structures with shear walls and frictional dampers when subjected to horizontal forces caused by earthquake. In this study, a series of G+40 buildings are compared with similar structures after adding shear walls and frictional dampers for various seismic zones using the response spectrum method. All structures will be compared to regular structures under the same conditions. Dynamic analysis is carried out on different soil types in various seismic zones. The response spectrum method is a seismic analysis technique that provides the response of structures subjected to seismic loads. The complete modeling and analysis are performed using the well-known FEM integrated software "ETABS," considering relevant data for specific seismic zones according to IS 1893(Part 1): 2016. All reinforcement criteria for RCC structure components will be considered according to IS 456:2000 and IS 13920:2016. By the results we can conclude that the structure with shear walls is more susceptible compared to the other two structures. Mostly shear walls should be provided in zone V. In zone IV and V the structure with shear walls, displacement is reduced by 34% & 30% and base shear is increased by 61% and 40%.

Published: September 2024

In cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) male and female flowers’ production rate is not the same in every variety, which is the main cause to create variation in fruit set. Though natural pollinators (honeybees and flies) are significant catalysts in fruit settings, but if genetically the female flower production rate is lower then we cannot expect more fruits from that plant. Knowing the female flower-bearing characteristics of selected cucumber plants is important otherwise cannot expect the desired yield from the plant. Considering the overall issues, a study was conducted for the evaluation of performance of five cucumber varieties namely, Timun Putih Besar (TPB), Timun Hijau Manis (THM), Timun Hijau Tanga (THT), Timun Susu Besar (TSB), and Timun Putih (TP). The study was carried out in Nethouse 7 at the Faculty of Sustainable Agriculture (FSA), Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS), Sandakan. Data on plant height (cm), numbers of leaves, days to first male and female flowering, total numbers of male and female flowers, fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), fruit weight (g), total numbers of fruits per plant, total yield (kg), and leaf chlorophyll content were collected and analysed. The result showed that there were significant differences (p<0.05) among the varieties for days to first male and female flowering, total numbers of female flowers, fruit length (cm), fruit diameter (cm), fruit weight (g), total number of fruits per plant, total yield (kg) and chlorophyll content, respectively. Overall, Timun Hijau Manis (THM) significantly (p<0.05) exhibited the best performance for days to first female flowering (25.50 days), total numbers of female flowers (21.50), total number of fruits per plant (5.75), and total yield (1.99 kg) compared to other 4 varieties. Therefore, THM variety is highly recommended to farmers for the overall performances and yield followed by TBP, THT, TSB and TP cucumber varieties, respectively.

Bentong ginger is the most well-known variety of Zingiber officinale in Malaysia, owing to its extensive use in traditional medicine and as a culinary spice. It is vegetatively propagated, and large quantities of rhizomes are required as initial planting materials. In addition, a variety of different soil-borne diseases are associated with the vegetative propagation of ginger using its rhizomes; hence, producing them on a massive scale requires a lot of time. Plant tissue culture techniques have utilised many plant species to produce disease-free planting materials. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the effects of ethanol on the surface sterilisation of shoot bud explants as well as the optimisation of 6-Benzylaminopurine (BAP) and Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on shoot and root propagation. The shoot bud explant was successfully sterilised using 20% (v/v) of Clorox and Tween20 for 30 minutes and 95% (v/v) of ethanol for 1 minute, resulting in a 58% contamination-free explant. The highest number of shoots and roots were initiated from shoot bud explants of Z. officinale on MS solid medium supplemented with 4.0 mg/l BAP and 1.5 mg/L NAA, respectively. MS medium incorporated with a combination of 3.0 mg/l BAP and 1.5 mg/l NAA produced the highest length of shoot. These results suggested that the protocols used can be adopted for large-scale propagation of disease-free planting materials of Zingiber officinale var Rosc.

Genetic purity is a must for the commercialization of any hybrid seeds. In order to identify a pure hybrid, morphological evaluation of seeds from grow-out-test is mandatory in Malaysia, however, the procedure is time- and money-consuming. This study aimed to identify suitable SSR markers for assessing the genetic purity of F1 hybrid seeds in waxy corn (Zea mays L. var. ceratina). Genomic DNA of ten waxy corn hybrids along with their parental lines and three commercial hybrids was extracted from seeds using DNeasy Plant Mini Kit. Ten SSR primers (umc2366, bnlg2181, bnlg2162, umc1005, phi011, umc1196, umc2077, phi112, umc1153 and bnlg381) were screened by PCR amplification, and only one primer (bnlg381) produced complementary banding pattern of both parental lines, which made a way to identify the hybrid. The bnlg381 amplified DNA band at 300bp in the female parent BELLA 1-8 and at 200bp in the male parent BELLA 1-7. The hybrid BELLA 1-8 x BELLA 1-7 has both DNA bands from its parents at 300bp and 200bp, confirming the genetic purity of this hybrid seed. The hybrid seed industry will benefit greatly from the SSR marker identified in this study, which will enable a cheaper and efficient selection of parental lines and evaluation of hybrid seeds in waxy corn breeding programs.

Published: September 2024

In contrast to natural food colours, food manufacturers have increasingly used synthetic food colours to achieve attributes such as low cost, excellent appearance, high colour intensity, increased colour stability, and consistency. Furthermore, natural colourants such as anthocyanins have been linked to potential health advantages such as dietary antioxidants. Pea Flower (Clitoria ternatea) was utilized in this research because the high quantity of polyacylated anthocyanins known as ternatins in blue pea flowers which is a distinctive property of anthocyanins found in blue pea flowers. The purpose of this research is to improve anthocyanin thermal stability via co-pigmentation process from Butterfly Pea flower and to analyse the physicochemical features of gummy. The potential of Response Surface Methodology (RSM) for optimising anthocyanin co-pigmentation from Butterfly Pea (Clitoria ternatea) flower was investigated in this study. The effect of two test variables on the half-life of anthocyanin was studied in a specific range of pH 3-6 and anthocyanin to metal ratio (1:1 to 1:100). The data from the experiment were analysed using the RSM of MINITAB Software (Version 19), and the optimum half-life of anthocyanin of 191 minutes was established and verified. The optimal conditions were stated to be pH 3.75 and an anthocyanin:metal ratio of 1:75. A significant regression equation or model with a correlation value of 95.38% was also achieved at the 5% level. For the application of gummy, three types of gummies (synthetic blue incorporated gummy (F1), anthocyanin incorporated gummy (F2) and co-pigmented anthocyanin incorporated gummy (F3)) were produced to analyse its physicochemical qualities. The physicochemical qualities of F3 gummy were reported to retain the physicochemical since the pH values, water activity, moisture content, and textural properties were not significantly different (p>0.05). However, due to the % difference in polymeric colour present, the colour in terms of hue angle was noted to have a significant difference between F1, F2, and F3.

Published: September 2024

Nitrogen is required practically throughout the vegetative phase of rice especially during tillering and panicle initiation stage. Therefore, many synthetic fertilizers are required in rice cultivation. However, synthetic chemical fertilizers are extremely expensive. In addition, the use of chemical fertilizers has detrimental effects on the environment and human health over time. Thus, the use of Azolla as a biofertilizer can replenish nitrogen in the rice field. However, the effect of fresh Azolla in promoting TR8 rice variety growth and yield has not been reported. This experiment was conducted in the insect-proof rain shelter at the Faculty of Sustainable Agriculture, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Sandakan Campus, Sabah, from August until December 2022. The experiment was laid in a completely randomized design (CRD) for six treatments with five replications. The treatments used in this study were: T1: 60 kg ha-1 N, 30 kg ha-1 P2O5, 30 kg ha-1 K2O + 0% Azolla, T2: 50 kg ha-1 N, 30 kg ha-1 P2O5, 30 kg ha-1 K2O + 10% Azolla, T3: 40 kg ha-1 N, 30 kg ha-1 P2O5, 30 kg ha-1 K2O + 20% Azolla, T4: 30 kg ha-1 N, 30 kg ha-1 P2O5, 30 kg ha-1 K2O + 30% Azolla, T5: 20 kg ha-1 N, 30 kg ha-1 P2O5, 30 kg ha-1 K2O + 40% Azolla, T6: 100% Azolla (50 g). The rice plants were cultivated on the same planting medium of topsoil and goat dung with a ratio of 3:1. The plant height, number of tillers, panicle number per plant, spikelet number per panicle, grain weight per panicle and 1000 grain weight showed significant differences (p<0.05) among the treatments. Results revealed T4 recorded the highest number of tillers (41) compared to T6 (27, negative control) and T1 (32, positive control). There were 51% and 28% differences between T4 and T6 and T1, respectively. In addition, the T3 and T4 produced higher panicle number per plant (47%), spikelet number per panicle (9.4%), grain weight per panicle (27.1%) and 1000 grain weight (9%) compared to T6 (negative control), but showed a similar performance as T1 (positive control). Therefore, T4 is recommended for TR8 rice production with lower chemical fertilizer application with the addition of Azolla.

Published: September 2024

Labor pain is an unavoidable part of childbirth, often causing significant distress and anxiety in parturient women. While pharmacological pain management options exist, there is growing interest in non-pharmacological alternatives, such as aromatherapy, due to their potential to provide relief with minimal side effects. Lavender essential oil, in particular, has been recognized for its calming and analgesic properties. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of lavender essential oil aromatherapy in reducing pain intensity during the first stage of labor. A randomized controlled trial was conducted, involving 100 participant women experiencing their first stage of labor. Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n=50), receiving lavender essential oil aromatherapy, or the control group (n=50), receiving a placebo aromatherapy. Pain intensity was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) before and after the intervention. The results demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in pain intensity in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The mean VAS score decreased from 7.2 ± 1.5 to 4.3 ± 1.2 in the intervention group, while the control group showed a decrease from 7.0 ± 1.6 to 6.2 ± 1.4. In conclusion, lavender essential oil aromatherapy appears to be an effective non-pharmacological method for reducing pain intensity during the first stage of labor. The findings suggest that it can be a valuable addition to the pain management strategies offered to women during childbirth.

Published: September 2024

This study explored the prevalence and pattern of antimicrobial activity of Oxytetracycline on Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from chicken presented with cases of diarrhoea at the Avian Clinic of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto. Cloacal swab samples were taken from 50 chicken of various types and age groups with suspected Colibacillosis. Bacterial culture and identification was carried out, 72% of the isolates were presumed to be E. coli, with 40% confirmed after biochemical characterization. Distribution analysis indicated highest prevalence of the organism in layers (8 isolates), followed by broilers (7), local chicken (2), cockerels (2), and lastly noilers (1). No statistical significant differences were found among types of chicken using Chi square with P > 0.05%. Regarding age, 40% of the isolates were from young chicken, and 60% were from adult ones, with no statistical significant difference observed among them (P > 0.05%). Additional investigations, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis, were conducted to further confirm the isolates. Oxytetracycline susceptibility test to elucidate antibiotic resistance in these E. coli isolates revealed 30% sensitivity and a concerning 70% resistance, indicating a challenge in managing E. coli infections in chicken in Sokoto using oxytetracycline. E. coli isolated from commercial (exotic) chicken were found to be more resistant to oxytetracycline than the ones isolated from local chicken (77.8% and 0% respectively). E. coli isolates from adult chicken were found to be more resistant to oxytetracycline than the ones isolated from young chicken (75% and 62.5% respectively). In conclusion; this study identifies the substantial presence of oxytetracycline-resistant E. coli strains in chicken in Sokoto. Vigilant monitoring and judicious antibiotic use are crucial to curb further antibiotic resistance spread in poultry through creation of awareness among farmers and veterinary drug vendors about dangers associated with antibiotic resistance. Further in vivo studies should be undertaken to correlate the in vitro susceptibility results to help validate the findings and guide future treatment protocols

Aim: This study provides a comparative analysis of oral dysbiosis of patients with periodontal diseases: chronic catarrhal gingivitis and generalized periodontitis, associated with various systemic pathologies, using a combination of the enzymatic method and interval scale. Studying the differences in the oral microbiota of patients with periodontal diseases and systemic pathologies can help comprehend the underlying mechanisms and create successful treatments. Methods: An enzymatic method was used to diagnose and monitor the degree of oral dysbiosis of patients with different systemic pathologies and periodontal diseases. We applied particular inclusion and exclusion criteria to include patients in a study. The level of microbial presence in the oral cavity can be measured by analyzing urease enzyme activity. Results: The research established that oral dysbiosis is observed in all groups of patients with periodontal diseases and systemic pathology: chronic colitis, chronic pancreatitis, and primary hypothyroidism. The article discusses an express method of diagnosing the microbiota of the oral cavity in combination with an interval scale. This combination makes it possible to classify patients according to the level of oral dysbiosis and prescribe further recommendations for treatment. Conclusions: The association of periodontitis and linked comorbidities is a complex interplay involving common risk factors, pathophysiology, and bidirectional causal relationships. The imbalance of microorganisms in the oral cavities of patients with systemic and periodontal diseases highlights the need for a personalized medical treatment approach. Correcting dysbiosis of the oral cavity should complement antimicrobial treatment for periodontal diseases and the normalization of metabolic processes in the periodontium. It has been confirmed that there is a correlation between patients’ microbial colonization of the oral cavity and the values obtained by the enzymatic method, suggesting that this approach can serve as a rapid assessment of the oral cavity’s microbiocenosis.

Aspect's work has shown that quantum objects have complete uncertainty in the predictions of their future. Likewise, living systems (systems of the third type according to Weaver's classification) also demonstrate a lack of predictability of the future. This has been proven on many models of the Eskov-Zinchenko effect, where for all living systems there is a similar uncertainty. This uncertainty poses new challenges for modern science and requires the creation of a new science that can describe the special properties of such systems. This new science must be different from modern deterministic and stochastic science, which cannot cope with the lack of predictability of the future.

A Good check on the Bayes factor
Authors: Sekulovski Nikola , Marsman Maarten , Wagenmakers Eric-Jan
Published: September 2024

Bayes factor hypothesis testing provides a powerful framework for assessing the evidence in favor of competing hypotheses. To obtain Bayes factors, statisticians often require advanced, non-standard tools, making it important to confirm that the methodology is computationally sound. This paper seeks to validate Bayes factor calculations by applying two theorems attributed to Alan Turing and Jack Good. The procedure entails simulating data sets under two hypotheses, calculating Bayes factors, and assessing whether their expected values align with theoretical expectations. We illustrate this method with an ANOVA example and a network psychometrics application, demonstrating its efficacy in detecting calculation errors and confirming the computational correctness of the Bayes factor results. This structured validation approach aims to provide researchers with a tool to enhance the credibility of Bayes factor hypothesis testing, fostering more robust and trustworthy scientific inferences.

Rohingya is an ethnic group living in the northern city of Rakhine in the western region of Myanmar. The Rohingya ethnic group suffers discriminatory treatment and various forms of human rights violations. Starting from losing the right to worship, difficulties in access in the employment sector, the health sector, restrictions on the number of children and access to formal education, it is very natural that the percentage of Rohingya ethnic illiterates reaches 80%. Therefore, until now there is still a wave of flight and displacement of the Rohingya ethnic group which has spread to various countries including Indonesia, especially Aceh. The service activities carried out by the psychology team took place in the Ladong area, Aceh Besar in collaboration with Rumoh Seujahtera Aneuk Nangroe (RSAN). The drawing activity carried out by the service team is carried out once a week for one month, apart from carrying out drawing therapy, the children also tell the contents of what is being drawn. Ronghiya children look happy and happy with this drawing activity because they can express what they feel through drawing and telling stories. Keywords: Rohingya Children, Mental Health, Art Therapy.

According to Islamic teachings, human beings are connected to each other, and as such, they naturally require the company of other people. Due to their inherent weakness, humans depend on the support of people around them. Thus, it is not unusual to refer to humans as social beings. This is owing to the fact that humans are beings who will always require the company of other people. This suggests that all Muslims have a duty to uphold friendship, whether it is through familial ties (descendants) or brotherly relationships with other Muslims. It is necessary for non-Muslims to uphold the virtue of mutual respect and appreciation, even if they go about it in various ways. It is hard to establish harmony and peace within a society if its people lack affection, as this always results in arguments, animosity, and ultimately, murder. For this reason, shilaturrahim (engaging with others)—both general and specific—are essential to bringing about the world's peace, harmony, and unification of humanity.
