Authors: Andronie Mihai , Lăzăroiu George , Ștefănescu Roxana , Ionescu Luminița , Cocoșatu Mădălina
Published: December 2021

Research background: With growing evidence of consumer adoption of mobile shopping apps, there is a pivotal need for comprehending Internet-enabled consumer devices in mobile shopping behavior. Mobile shopping platform features and user technological readiness configure consumers? expectations and demands as regards mobile retailing adoption, leading to acceptance of mobile shopping apps and payment services.

Purpose of the article: In this research, prior findings have been cumulated indicating that mobile social apps extend throughout consumer attitudes and behaviors by the widespread adoption of smartphones. We contribute to the literature by showing that cutting-edge technological developments associated with customer behavior in relation to mobile commerce apps have resulted in the rise of data-driven systems. Consumer behavioral intention and adoption intention in relation to mobile shopping apps/websites are developed on perceived risk and trust consequences.

Methods: Throughout February and March 2021, a quantitative literature review of the Web of Science, Scopus, and ProQuest databases was carried out, with search terms comprising ?mobile shopping app?, ?mobile commerce platform?, ?mobile payment service?, ?Internet-enabled consumer device?, ?consumer technological adoption?, and ?mobile shopping behavior?. As research published between 2018 and 2021 was analyzed, only 330 sources met the suitability criteria. By removing questionable or indeterminate findings (insubstantial/inconsequent data), results unconfirmed by replication, too imprecise content, or having quite similar titles, 66, chiefly empirical, sources were selected. A systematic review of recently published literature was carried out on technological adoption of mobile commerce apps by employing Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The Systematic Review Data Repository was used, a software program for the gathering, handling, and analysis of data for the systematic review. The quality of the academic articles was determined by harnessing the Mixed Method Appraisal Tool.

Findings & value added: The consumer purchase decision?making process in mobile app-based marketing involves consumer engagement and willingness to adopt mobile commerce apps. Further advancements should clarify how technological-based consumer adoption of mobile shopping throughout social commerce can improve the payment for products and services.
The Vernaculars of No One, Really. The (Un?)Translatable Fictional Languages
Authors:   Babes-Bolyai University, Chiorean Anca
Published: December 2021

The present paper aims to show the two possible directions, effects, manifestations of the fictional languages in general. Thus, according to the purposes of their creation, fictional languages have, throughout history, been created in order to achieve certain political, aesthetic or playful purposes, but the most fundamental feature that divides them into two categories is one strongly linked to the purpose of their creation: whether or not they can be learned and used in day-to-day life. Thus, whether they originated in the Sci-Fi, Fantasy or in the literary Avant-Garde universes, the issue of their purpose (to hide or to reveal meaning) also raises the issue of their translatability and, most of all, the issue of their “educability”, issues that may or may not harm their aesthetic dimensions.
Donald W. Winnicott’s Theory, Literature, and Migration
Authors:   University of Bucharest, Manolachi Monica
Published: December 2021

When Donald W. Winnicott conceived his psychoanalytical concepts and theories, initially meant to address problems associated with the relationship between a mother and her child, the British paediatrician was aware they could be meaningful for understanding cultural issues too. One of the key questions when dealing with literature as a form of culture is to what extent the representation of the self in it is true or false. Winnicott’s theory of transitional objects – items used to provide psychological comfort – can operate as a significant critical tool when trying to answer such questions. This paper firstly explores the reception of Winnicott’s theory of transitional objects and phenomena and other associated concepts in literary criticism. It moves further to demonstrate it is especially relevant when literature travels or deals with international migration. Last but not least, it presents several possible limitations for the field of literary criticism, taking into consideration contemporary theories about the location of culture.
Time as the Rhythm of Theoretical Practices
Authors:   Babes-Bolyai University, Berszan Istvan
Published: December 2021

Many scholars would agree today that no theory is timeless. But they would probably mean the historicity of theoretical thinking, including the concepts and preconceptions of time propagated by theoretical literary studies. In this paper, I will investigate a usually ignored but unavoidable problem: the rhythmic dimension of theorising. How do those practices, to which different theoretical attempts are linked, influence their orientation in time(s)? Gathering positive data of the past in positivism, revealing the work of formal devices of poetic language in formalism, following a rhetorical change in postmodernism or reducing every kind of change to historical construction are not only ideological patterns but practical rhythms considered as paradigmatic for other – and sometimes for all – happenings. Based on practice-oriented physics, I propose research of time projections by which literary reading and writing are transposed to the kinetic spaces of certain theoretical practices.
Fiction May Confront Theories. Locating Determinism of the Newspeak in G. Orwell’s 1984
Authors:   Alexandru Ioan Cuza University of Iași, Constantinescu Cătălin
Published: December 2021

The paper focuses on the relationships between theory and practice and the consequences of dislocating theory from practice as they are illustrated through fiction. The case study carried out here concerns an exemplary novel, Ninety Eighty-Four by George Orwell, observing how the literary discourse can display a confrontation between two linguistic models, each resulted from a different theory: “instrumentalism” (Winston Smith) and “determinism” (O’ Brien). Also, the possibility of identifying an Orwellian model as opposed to the Sapir-Whorf and the linguistic models deserves examination. Newspeak is full of problematic aspects: ideology shapes the language by means of “wooden language” (la langue de bois, in Françoise Thom’s terms). Therefore, the historical “regime of relevance” (Galin Tihanov) makes possible a peculiar (use of) theory: an instrument that translates the ideology becomes the very essence of the determinist theory on the language in a totalitarian state. In discussing the practical consequences of literary theory, Stanley Fish points out that they are inexistent, because theory can never be united with practice, as it is actually impossible to separate theory from practice – a similar observation made by Steven Knapp and Walter B. Michaels. Whether consequences are real poses a challenge: following Edward Said’s argument, Steven Mailloux observes that theory can be consequential by rhetorical means: theory does what all discursive practices do and that is that it attempts to persuade its readers (or population in a totalitarian state) to adopt its point of view, its way of seeing texts and the world.
La Sociedad Anónima Europea: una reflexión sobre la dilución de su atractivo en el ámbito de las operaciones transfronterizas de fusión y traslado de la sede social
Authors: Quintas Seara Alberto
Published: December 2021

La Sociedad Anónima Europea nació con la vocación de superar las dificultades tradicionalmente asociadas a la actividad transfronteriza de las empresas europeas. En este sentido, uno de sus objetivos consistía en posibilitar o, en su caso, facilitar la realización de operaciones transfronterizas de fusión y traslado de la sede social llevadas a cabo por sociedades de los diferentes Estados miembros en el seno de la Unión Europea. Sin embargo, su utilidad y atractivo como instrumento para articular estas operaciones se ha ido diluyendo con el devenir de los años, en gran medida por cuestiones vinculadas a la propia configuración de su régimen jurídico por parte del Reglamento (CE) nº 2157/2001, pero también debido a la evolución de la jurisprudencia del TJUE en el ámbito de la libertad de establecimiento y la aprobación de determinadas normas de Derecho de la UE en el plano del Derecho societario y del Derecho tributario.

Derecho a la vivienda y ordenación del mercado del alquiler turístico en la Unión Europea: comentarios a raíz de la Sentencia Cali apartments y su recepción en España
Authors: Macho Carro Alberto
Published: December 2021

El Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea, por medio de su Sentencia Cali apartments, ha reconocido la posibilidad de que los Estados miembros regulen el mercado de viviendas de uso turístico para tratar de garantizar el derecho a la vivienda de sus ciudadanos. En este sentido, la lucha contra la escasez de viviendas podrá considerarse como una razón imperiosa de interés general para justificar la imposición de severos regímenes de autorización a la prestación de un servicio que, en principio, debería poder ejercerse libremente. Además, la Sentencia deja en manos de los entes locales un amplio margen para configurar estos regímenes restrictivos de la libre prestación de servicios, pues entiende son las autoridades públicas mejor posicionadas para evaluar y responder al impacto que este tipo de servicios pueden tener sobre la oferta de vivienda en alquiler de sus respectivos territorios.

El Tribunal Supremo se ha servido ya de esta doctrina para confirmar la legalidad de los estrictos requisitos impuestos a la implantación de viviendas de uso turístico en la ciudad de Bilbao, a través de la potestad local de planeamiento urbanístico, entendiendo que cuenta para ello con un claro respaldo y legitimación democrática
El Pacto Verde Europeo y las propuestas para su desarrollo. ¿Mayor ambición de la UE para alcanzar el desarrollo sostenible?
Authors: García Lupiola Asier
Published: December 2021

El Tratado de Lisboa consagró una política integrada en materia de medio ambiente y energía, a la que se suma la acción climática. Durante la última década la Unión Europea ha avanzado significativamente hacia el desarrollo sostenible. Sin embargo, la recuperación económica tras la crisis global iniciada en 2008 ha ralentizado el ritmo de consecución de los objetivos específicos fijados en esta materia. Una nueva crisis, la derivada de la actual pandemia, parece haber espoleado a la Unión Europea para adoptar una postura más ambiciosa. El texto analiza si el Pacto Verde Europeo y las estrategias y planes que han comenzado a desarrollarlo materializan esa necesaria mayor ambición para alcanzar la sostenibilidad.

Este documento se enfocará en investigar el caso de estudio de la “UFPP 02: Azcapotzalco-Cerro del Tepeyac” para analizar la morfología y funcionamiento de las infraestructuras azul, verde y gris dentro de dicho territorio. Se decidió trabajar con mapas de información geográfica en una escala de actuación media (1:50,000). El propósito de esta investigación es crear una metodología enfocada en la planeación paisajística que guíe a visualizar y categorizar los elementos característicos de las diferentes infraestructuras, esto para llegar a métodos puntuales y asertivos que permitan un enfoque crítico. Es así, como se plantea determinar cuáles serán los “paisajes de atención especial”, justificando todos los componentes tanto sociales como ambientales que le asignan valor significativo y sentido de existencia. En este contexto se estableció estudiar seis paisajes de atención especial, que son áreas de mayor oportunidad a una intervención de paisaje; por la conjunción de valores históricos, naturales, sociales, entre otros. Esta metodología demuestra la forma de cómo utilizar los datos encontrados, interpretarlos y posteriormente utilizarlos como ejes de diseño para una eficiente y completa intervención de paisaje. En cada paisaje de atención especial se demuestran los beneficios completos que exponen con dicha propuesta de diseño, asimismo, se pretende que la metodología aplicada aspire a ser una base para las diferentes intervenciones paisajísticas y urbanas de México.
Plan maestro urbano paisajístico para el humedal "La Sabana", Chetumal, Quintana Roo
Authors:   , Koh Romero Dante Ahuizotl
Published: December 2021

Existen múltiples objetivos con respecto del humedal “La Sabana”, sin embargo, poco se aborda en relación a los valores estéticos del paisaje y su relación con la población, así mismo no considera aspectos como movilidad sustentable integradas al paisaje, pero principalmente no establece cómo se va a realizar el planteamiento de todos esos objetivos al interior del polígono del parque urbano “La Sabana”. En resumen, el humedal “La Sabana” ha sido impactado negativamente y presenta una presión constante por el crecimiento urbano de la ciudad de Chetumal, por ello, se requiere incluir en el desarrollo de la ciudad este elemento de carácter paisajístico, para fomentar un uso compatible con las actividades urbanas, a la vez que se mejora su estado de conservación. El problema a atender es la integración paisajística del humedal “La Sabana” a su entorno inmediato urbano y natural, con actividades compatibles para el uso y disfrute de la población. En ello reside reconocer el humedal como un sistema natural; las necesidades urbanas de movilidad, conectividad, áreas de recreo y equipamientos compatibles; y las propias aspiraciones de diseño del paisaje. Este tratamiento del paisaje desde distintos enfoques permite comprender el fenómeno en su conjunto, integrando diversas variables que darán un resultado más lógico y armónico, acorde a su realidad territorial, urbana y social. Nuestra zona de estudio específica, será delimitada por los límites topográficos que indican la escorrentía a manera de microcuenca, la asociación de vegetación y uso de suelo de las cartas del INEGI, más el área urbana adyacente al humedal; dichos límites conforman la etapa de desarrollo de la investigación por lo que serán definidos más adelante. Dentro de este polígono se definirán las estrategias medioambientales, urbanas y paisajísticas para el humedal “La Sabana”, a partir de un Plan Maestro que defina una zonificación primaria y la identificación de proyectos estratégicos compatibles con los objetivos de la planeación urbana con relación al humedal, presentando a grandes rasgos los esquemas conceptuales de las acciones urbanas y paisajísticas para el mejoramiento, recuperación y puesta en valor de “La Sabana”.
Schulleitung zwischen Alltagsbewältigung und Schulentwicklung – Thesen aus einer qualitativen multiperspektivischen Arbeitsplatzanalyse
Authors: Kruse Christoph , Huber Stephan Gerhard
Published: December 2021

Der Beitrag geht anhand einer Interviewstudie den Fragen nach, wie Aufgaben und Schnittstellen im Schulmanagement ausgestaltet sind und wie funktional dies geschieht. Ergebnisse von 18 leitfadengestützten Experten-interviews mit Schulleitungen sowie Sekretariatsmitarbeitenden und Schulpflegemitgliedern werden präsentiert und forschungsbezogen diskutiert. Es zeigt sich, dass eine hohe Belastungsintensität sowie permanente Zeitknappheit aus Sicht der Akteure zwangsläufig zu einer Priorisierung der Sicherstellung des Schulalltags führen, wodurch schulqualitätsrelevante Aufgaben systematisch vernachlässigt werden. Angesichts von Unklarheiten und Optimierungspotenzial bezüglich der Arbeitsteilung wird argumentiert, dass Schnittstellen einen entscheidenden Einflussfaktor für das Handeln im Schulmanagement darstellen.

The biopolitics of private conservation: jeopardizing labor and rhino to optimize capital?
Authors: Thakholi Lerato
Published: December 2021

The conservation of biodiversity has increasingly been analyzed as biopolitical. That is, conservation initiatives such as breeding programs and protected areas seek to optimize some nonhuman life forms while exposing others to harm or degradation. Biopolitical conservation studies have looked at the implications of how human and non-human lives have been valued differently. Wildlife has received more attention than the lives of conservation laborers in studies of private conservation. The article builds on Foucault's conceptualization of biopolitics to dissect the responses of the eco-tourism and wildlife breeding industries to rhino poaching in the Lowveld, South Africa. There are two central arguments. First, their responses hinge on creating new, and re-instating old, avenues of capital accumulation that ironically prioritize the optimization of the wildlife economy over the lives of rhino. Second, I show that private conservation disproportionately exposes black laborers to harm while attempting to protect rhino from poachers, a function of how conservation labor has been governed since the onset of poaching in 2008. I conclude that private conservationists in South Africa make value judgments to construct a hierarchy of life with whiteness at its apex, rhinos following closely behind, with laborers, and finally poachers at the bottom.
A mathematical model of the fractional differential method for structural design dynamics simulation of lower limb force movement step structure based on Sanda movement
Authors: Li Chenguang , Alahmadi Dimah
Published: December 2021

In order to promote the development of sports training robots and improve the training of lower limbs in Sanda, a new mechanical structure of Sanda training robots is designed. The thesis combines the mathematical method of fractional differential equations to design a new type of omnidirectional moving platform mechanism, which realises the movement in any direction in the plane and can turn at any radius during the movement. From the perspective of kinematics, the mathematical relationship between wheel speed and robot trajectory is analysed, and a virtual prototype technology combined with Pro/E and Adams joint modelling and simulation method is used to establish an accurate and reliable virtual prototype model. The experimental simulation results show that the designed virtual prototype model is consistent with the mathematical model, which verifies the practical feasibility of the mechanical structure of the lower limb power generation robot for Sanda movement, and provides a reliable basis for the establishment of the physical prototype.
Gender analysis of vulnerability of smallholder farming households to climate variability and change in North-central Nigeria
Authors: Daudu Abdulrazaq Kamal , Salami Oluwashola Shakirat , Kareem Oyedola Waheed
Published: December 2021

The frequency and intensity of climatic variables as indicators of climate change have been increasingly recognised as global crisis with significant impact on biodiversity, household food security and gender roles. This study therefore analysed gender vulnerability of smallholder farming households to climate variability and change in North-central Nigeria. A multi-stage random sampling technique was used to select 768 respondents from the study area. Indicator-based approach was adopted for this study and a structured questionnaire was used to elicit data from 3, 6, and 8 indicators of three components of vulnerability: exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Data obtained were subjected to linear normalisation, non-weight vulnerability index, and both descriptive and inferential statistics. Results show that both male- and female-headed households were vulnerable to changing climate and the female-headed ones were more vulnerable (0.410) compared to their male counterparts with an index of 0.321. The high vulnerability of female-headed households was due to their extent of exposure (0.839) and sensitivity (0.658) to climate change with low adaptive capacities (0.189). Also, there was a positive and significant difference between male (t = 5.142) and female (t = 5.079) headed households’ in their level of vulnerability to climate change (p ≤ 0.05). This study recommends access to technology that helps farmers receive timely information on climate variables, and farmers’ access to agricultural insurance scheme would help improve adaptive capacity and reduce their vulnerability. Also, gender-sensitive framework that could bridge the gaps between male- and female-headed households are needed to form a policy development agenda by the government in order to encourage more female households’ to participate in climate change mitigation.
Pathogen profile of urinary tract infections in Nephrology Unit
Authors: Chojeta Dariusz , Smarz-Widelska Iwona , Koziol Malgorzata M.
Published: December 2021

Introduction. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common types of infection in both hospitalized and outpatient settings. The etiology is mostly bacterial, and the typical causative agent is uropathogenic Escherichia coli. There is a noticeable increase in drug resistance of pathogenic microorganisms.

The aim of the study was retrospective analyses of etiological agents of UTI and their antibiotic resistance patterns in Nephrology Unit patients.

Material and methods. An infection was diagnosed based on the patient’s symptoms and positive results of urine culture, carried out over 26 months. The clinical material was tested by using the VITEK system, the drug susceptibility of the emerged pathogens was identified.

Results. The most common etiological agents of UTI were Gram-negative rods: Escherichia coli (51.23%), Klebsiella spp. (19.3%) and Proteus spp. (13.68%). The analysis of drug resistance profiles of these pathogens showed a high percentage of strains resistant to broad-spectrum penicillins and fluoroquinolones. At the same time, it seems that E. coli isolates presented the most favorable pattern of drug susceptibility in this comparison.

Conclusions. The alarming tendency of increasing drug resistance among pathogens causing UTIs to antibiotics such as penicillins or fluoroquinolones prompts a careful choice of drugs in empirical therapies. The most appropriate practice in this regard seems to be meticulous control of nosocomial infections and making therapeutic decisions based on the knowledge of local microbiological data.
The COVID-19 – related problems encountered by nursing homes in Poland and the steps undertaken to prevent disease spread in the first phase of the epidemic
Authors: Nieradko-Iwanicka Barbara , Iwanicki Janusz , Dyczewski Blazej , Herbet Mariola
Published: December 2021

Nursing Homes (NHs) are institutions of social assistance run by local governments or non-government organizations. Their purpose is to provide individuals with basic services. On March 20, 2020, the Regulation of the Minister of Health issued the declaration of the COVID-19 epidemic in Poland. The introduction of legal regulations allowed the authorities to take actions to prevent infections at NHs. The aim of the study was to analyze the COVID-19 – related problems encountered by nursing homes in Poland and the steps undertaken to prevent disease spread in the first phase of the epidemic.

The survey was conducted with use of an original questionnaire e-mailed to 532 NHs throughout Poland in May 2020. Results were analysed by way of the IBM SPSS Statistics program.

A total of 89 completed questionnaires were received from: 40 NHs organized by local government (44.9%), 24 run by churches (27.0%), 13 established by non-governmental organizations (14.6%) and 12 operating privately (13.5%). Among them, 78 NHs had less than 100 employees (87.6%) and 11 had more than 100 employees (12.4%), while 68 had up to 100 inhabitants (76.4%) and 21 had more than 100 inhabitants (23.6%). All NHs had problems with recruiting and retaining enough nursing staff.

The most commonly used method of COVID-19 spread prevention at NHs in the first phase of the pandemic was establishing an increased sanitary regime, monitoring of temperature of residents and staff members and preparing isolation rooms. The greatest problem was personnel shortages.
Determinant Port-related Factors Affecting the Flow of Shipping Trade and Logistics in Nigerian Seaports
Authors: Nwokedi Theophilus C. , Ndikom Obed C. , Okoroji Lazarus I. , Nwaorgu Jonathan
Published: December 2021

The need to eliminate bottlenecks to port operations in Nigeria was a fundamental goal of the port privatization about 2 decades ago. Current trends in ports management; however, suggest existence of numerous inefficiency challenges reflected in long ship turnaround time, increasing trend of cargo dwell time, high cargo pilferage risk rate, poor condition of port infrastructure and superstructure, multiple charges and government agencies, cumbersome cargo clearance & examination procedures, port congestion related delays particularly in Apapa and Onne ports, etc. The study identifies the decisive port-related factors constraining the flow of shipping trade in Nigerian ports using a survey to obtain data on the influence of the identified factors on the flow of shipping trade in Nigerian ports. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to analyze the data obtained. The results indicate that high cargo pilferage risk profile, long ship turnaround time and increasing trend of cargo dwell time constitute the significant port-related factors constraining the flow of shipping in Nigerian ports. It can be concluded that terminal operators should prioritize solutions to the problems of high cargo pilferage risk profile, long ship turnaround time and increasing cargo dwell time, which constitute the major constraints to the flow of shipping trade.

К ВОПРОСУ О ШЛИФОВАННЫХ ДИСКАХ СРЕДНЕГО ЗАУРАЛЬЯ: ТЕХНОЛОГИЯ, ФУНКЦИЯ, ИНТЕРПРЕТАЦИЯ
Authors: Храмцов Михаил Вадимович
Published: December 2021

Шлифованные диски – категория артефактов, распространенная на широкой территории: от Восточной Прибалтики и Скандинавии до Дальнего Востока. Диски в коллекциях памятников Среднего Зауралья обладают значительным разнообразием, однако в исследовательской литературе отсутствует сформированная типология данной категории артефактов. Скудны и представления о технологии их производства. В результате анализа историографии проблемы, в статье приведено большинство известных шлифованных дисков Среднего Зауралья и построена типология данных артефактов. Рассмотрена проблема соотношения формы изделий и их функции. Несмотря на небольшую выборку, был применены методы статистики с помощью программного пакета STATGRAPHICS Plus. Кроме того, в научный оборот введены два диска из коллекции Липчинского поселения, которые интерпретируются как грузила.

Ativismo judicial, judicialização da política e politização da justiça no estado de direito contemporâneo
Authors: Góes Guilherme Sandoval
Published: December 2021

A “viragem neoconstitucionalista do direito” implicou mudanças paradigmáticas na teoria da eficácia dos direitos fundamentais, na medida em que engendrou um novo arquétipo exegético voltado para a força normativa da Constituição, cuja base fundante é o reconhecimento dos princípios como normas jurídicas. É nesse sentido que desponta o ativismo judicial, daí a pretensão do presente artigo de analisar tal fenômeno, comparando-o com os conceitos de judicialização da política e politização da justiça, de modo a poder traçar os limites exegéticos do protagonismo judicial no âmbito do Estado Democrático de Direito contemporâneo. Seu grande desafio é propor um equilíbrio entre a liberdade de conformação do legislador democrático e a efetividade dos direitos fundamentais.
O papel da advocacia pública no dever de coerência na Administração Pública
Authors: Oliveira Rafael Carvalho Rezende
Published: December 2021

O artigo aborda o papel da advocacia pública na efetivação do dever de coerência da Administração Pública. O Estado Pós-moderno, fortemente marcado pela complexidade, pluralidade e incerteza, acarreta para o gestor público o desfaio de reduzir a insegurança jurídica e dispensar tratamento isonômico aos administrados. A efetividade do princípio da segurança jurídica e da garantia de coerência estatal depende da melhoria da gestão pública, mas, também, da organização e da autonomia da advocacia pública. Destacada no texto constitucional como função essencial à Justiça, a advocacia pública é responsável pelo controle interno e defesa da juridicidade dos atos estatais, garantindo aos administrados uma gestão pública dentro dos parâmetros fixados no ordenamento jurídico. A atuação coerente e isonômica da Administração Pública, evitando a edição de atos contraditórios e o tratamento desigual entre pessoas inseridas em contextos semelhantes, depende, em larga medida, da atuação do advogado público que, por essa razão, deve ter assegurada a sua independência funcional. No exercício de sua missão institucional, a advocacia pública deve zelar pela coerência administrativa, o que revela a necessidade de emissão de pareceres e outras formas de manifestação jurídica, inclusive na esfera judicial, que garantam o respeito aos precedentes judiciais e administrativos.

In its use, shallots produce a lot of waste in the form of skin which can be processed into solid soap preparations because they contain antibacterial properties derived from flavonoid compounds. This study aims to produce solid soap onion skin extract and test the physical quality of the preparation according to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). The research method was experimental which consisted of making simplicia and extracting it by maceration method using 70% ethanol as a solvent. Red onion peel extract formulations were used with a concentration of 5% (Formulation 2) and 0% (formulation 1) as the control basis. Evaluation of solid soap preparations includes organoleptic observation, homogeneity testing, foaming test, pH testing. The preparation was evaluated for 4 weeks at room temperature. Data were analyzed descriptively and compared with SNI. The results of this study indicate that the soap preparation is homogeneous, has a solid texture, is light brown (formulation 1), and dark brown (formulation 2). The average pH value in formulation 1 and formulation 2 is 9. The results of the organoleptic test on solid soap preparations did not change, from the first week to the fourth week it was getting denser. The foam power test on both formulations showed the presence of foam that came out when the test was carried out. The conclusion in this study is that the physical quality of onion skin extract solid soap is in accordance with SNI and is stable for 4 weeks of storage.
