Basic Features of Funeral and Memorial Rites in the Forest-steppe Altai in the First Millennium
Authors: Kazakov A.A. , Kazakova O.M.
Published: July 2022

The article deals with the issues of general theoretical nature related to the problem of determining local cultural traditions. The processes of settling the forest-steppe Altai by the tribes of the Kulaiskaya archaeological culture, which laid the basis for the formation of the Altai variant of the culture, have been briefly characterized. The settlement began in the 4th-3d centuries BC with the infiltration of small groups of the population of the Novosibirsk variant of the Kulaiskaya culture into the local environment, then it was followed by migration flows of representatives of the Sarovskii stage of the Kulaiskaya culture from the territories of the Tomsk Ob region at the end of the 2nd century BC, which led to a change in the culture of the aboriginal population. The formation of the Altai variant of the Kulaiskaya culture took place on the basis of cultural interaction of the alien Kulaiskaya culture population of the Sarovskii stage with the local population belonging to the Staroaleiskaya and Kamenskaya cultures, which led to the appearance of sites of the final Fominskii stage. Chronological line of the turning points of the local cultural traditions (2nd century AD) has been determined in the article. It characterizes the main features of the funeral and memorial rites of the new population that can be considered local from that moment. Those traditions can be seen as basic, the sources of further development and transformation of funeral and memorial traditions of the forest-steppe Altai throughout the 1st millennium.

Published: July 2022

The article is devoted to the analysis of belt sets found in the burials of the Xianbei period of the Karban-I necropolis located in the Chemal region of the Altai Republic. In 1989-1990 expedition of the Barnaul Pedagogical Institute (now Altai State Pedagogical University) found sixteen belts in eleven burials. It was presented by 15 buckles, 38 plaques, eight „blocks“ and two „pendant tips“. The typological analysis of the majority of classified items indicates their dating within the 2nd — 3rd centuries AD. The considered sets demonstrate the variability in the design of the belts of the population of the Northern Altai in the early Xianbei period. The authors have identified common, special and single elements of the belt design. It has been established that the variety of sets of belt accessories from the burials reflects the individual preferences of the deceased people, as well as the peculiarities of their status in the social stratification of the population of the Northern Altai at the initial stage of the Great Migration period.

This article deals with the problem of utilization of the solid residue of fir tree greens formed during the industrial production of essential oils. The objective of this study was to study the chemical composition of bioconversion products of substrates based on fir tree greens. The strain PP-3.2. Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fr.) Quél acted as a biodestructor.

In the process of bioconversion, the content of polysaccharides and lignin substances decreases to 38 and 28%, respectively. Up to 20% of protein accumulates in the bioconversion products of fir tree greens. The amount of nucleic acids is no more than 1.5 g per 1 kg, the content of heavy metals does not exceed the maximum permissible concentration. The decrease in the mass of the substrate reaches 15%. When the fallen leaves and the post-extraction residue of poplar buds are added to the substrate, the protein content increases by 3%, and the substrate-destroying activity of fungi also increases. The digestibility of products as a result of bioconversion increases by 1.6-2.8 times, depending on the composition of the substrate.

The obtained data allow us to recommend post-fermented substrates based on fir tree greens and balsamic poplar biomass for use as a protein feed additive.

Currently, there is a tendency to deepen the mycotoxin problem, which is associated with the global warming and environmental pollution. The results of a study of the sorption capacity of adsorbents samples based on natural materials diatomites and lignins in relation to mycotoxin T-2 are presented. The chemical composition of diatomites of the Inzensk deposit before and after modification is given and the parameters of the surface-porous structure of the samples are established. The isotherms of adsorption and desorption of nitrogen on the surface of diatomites were studied and for the first time it was shown that they belong to the type IV(a) acording to IUPAC classification. The distribution of pores by size was studied and it was established that a significant proportion of the pore space of diatomites are mesopores with an average width of 7–12 nm. The highest adsorption rates of mycotoxin T-2 were established for a diatomite sample subjected to acid modification. Data on the adsorption of mycotoxin T-2 by samples of lignins isolated from the wood of birch Betula verrucosa, stems of rye Secale sp. and cabbage Brassica oleracea are given. The results of the determination of functional groups, elemental and monomeric composition of lignins are presented. It has been established that the adsorption capacity of drugs depends mainly on the peculiarities of the chemical structure of the studied samples. The highest adsorption rates of mycotoxin T-2 are established for lignin isolated from cabbage stems. Comparison of mycotoxin T-2 adsorption, surface porous structure parameters and chemical structure of various samples leads to the conclusion that for both diatomites and lignins, the chemisorption process plays the most important role.

The paper presents the results of a study of the paramagnetic activity of humic and hymatomelanic acids extracted from sapropels of ten small lakes on the right bank of the Ob River and ten small lakes on the left bank of the Ob River (Western Siberia). Quantitative studies were carried out by two methods: the ABS spins method and the method using a double resonator with respect to TEMPO. A comparison of the two methods is presented. The values ​​of the concentration of paramagnetic cents per gram of humic and hymatomelanic acids, as well as the molecular weights of the conditional paramagnetic molecules of humic and hymatomelanic acids were calculated. Based on the results obtained, a conclusion was made about the greater paramagnetic activity of humic acids relative to hymatomelanic acids. Differences in the paramagnetic activity of humic acids and hymatomelanic acids have been established. Three samples from lakes on the right bank of the Ob River and one sample from a lake on the left bank of the Ob River have the greatest differences in paramagnetic activity between HAs and their corresponding HMCs. The concentration of paramagnetic centers in the HAs of these samples is six times higher than in the corresponding MMCs. The contribution of the conjugated aromatic component to the structure of the macromolecules of these HAs is the greatest.

The aim of this study was studying the effect of acidic hydrolysis conditions on the molecular parameters of galactomannan, such as weight average degree of polymerization (DPw), weight average molecular weight (Mw), product yield, depolymerization reaction rate, and mannose/galactose (Man/Gal) ratio in the presence of hydrochloric acid and obtaining low molecular weight oligogalactomannans soluble in water. A preparing possibility low molecular weight galactomannans by acid hydrolysis of guar galactomannan (DPw=1160, Mw=563.8 kDa, Man/Gal=1.89) in the presence of hydrochloric acid was studied. The studies were carried out in hydrochloric acid solutions with various concentrations (0.05–1.0 mol/L) for different times (10–240 min) at a constant temperature (80 °C). In the course of the studies, effects of the reaction conditions on the molecular parameters of the product obtained were analyzed. The conducted reactions yielded low molecular weight galactomannans and oligogalactomannans with different molecular parameters (DPw=6–1021, Mw=2.6–505.1 kDa, Man/Gal=1.90–3.19) and yields (2.8–97.1%). Based on the results obtained, the optimal reaction conditions (HCl 0.1 mol/L, 240 min, 80 °C) were supposed for the preparation of galactomannan  oligosaccharides. The structural studies of the products indicated that products with reduced galactose residues could be prepared by this method.

Introducción: Los estímulos y consecuencias que proporciona la succión de una alimentación imitada afectan al desarrollo de las estructuras máxilo-mandibulares, hecho a tener en cuenta de cara a interceptar precozmente patologías estomatológicas en el ámbito de la atención primaria. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar los parámetros sociodemográficos, hábitos parafuncionales orales y maloclusiones asociados a una lactancia artificial prolongada.
Metodología: Se realizó un estudio epidemiológico observacional, descriptivo e inferencial sobre una muestra aleatoria de 343 preescolares. El trabajo de campo radicó en un cuestionario de salud oral cuyas variables de estudio estaban relacionadas con las características sociodemográficas y hábitos de salud oral. En una ficha de exploración odontológica un investigador calibrado registró los datos derivados de la exploración intraoral y extraoral. Para el análisis de los mismos se utilizó el programa SPSS Statistics 25.0 para Windows, mediante el procedimiento descriptivo y de frecuencias, tablas de contingencia, prueba de Chi-cuadrado y análisis de regresión logística.
Resultados: El 62,6% de preescolares alimentados con biberón y de forma prolongada hicieron uso del chupete durante más tiempo, presentando con mayor frecuencia succión digital (66,7%), onicofagia (58,7%), bruxismo (61,4%) y respiración oral (50%). Con respecto a las características oclusales destaca en el plano anteroposterior el escalón recto (53,9%) y la sobremordida en el plano vertical (59,4%). La mayoría de progenitores que optaron por esta forma de lactancia eran trabajadores manuales cualificados o semicualificados con estudios de segundo grado. En el análisis de regresión logística, el uso prolongado de biberón se asocia significativamente con el origen de progenitor extranjero (OR=1,702; I.C. 95%=1,069-2,709; p=0,025), el uso prolongado de chupete (OR=2,547; I.C. 95%=1,580-4,104; p<0,001), y el hábito de respiración oral (OR=0,568; I.C. 95%=0,331-0,973; p=0,040).
Conclusiones: El origen extranjero del progenitor y el uso prolongado del chupete aumentan la probabilidad de usar de forma prolongada el biberón y el hábito de respiración oral la disminuye. La lactancia artificial prolongada podría favorecer la aparición de un mayor porcentaje de maloclusiones.

Published: July 2022

In Germany and Switzerland, land use and urban sprawl there has been a central topic of public debate for several years. Cantonal structure plans in Switzerland as well as state and regional plans in Germany contain binding regulations for managing settlement development. Studies that examine the implementation of these regulations are lacking. This paper analyses the implementation of selected instruments of supra-local spatial planning for managing settlement development in Germany and Switzerland using the Policy Arrangement Approach. The case study covers the regions Oberland (Bavaria), Südlicher Oberrhein (Baden-Württemberg) and the cantons of Zurich and St. Gallen. The results show that actors implement spatial-planning instruments in situative negotiation processes in which they exploremargins and alternatives. Central to these processes is a regional specific overlapping of (i) interlinkings of formal and informal instruments, (ii) the interplay between local autonomy, supra-local control and superordinate context factors, and (iii) the overlapping of supra-local and regional discourses. The results show that the Policy Arrangement Approach helps to better understand how spatial planning works.

We investigated the role of the interaction between the Notch and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathways in septic myocardial injury. The sepsis model was induced in rats with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Rats were divided into control, LPS, LPS + TAK242 ((6R)-6-[N-(2-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)sulfamoyl]cyclohex-1-ene-1-carboxylate) and LPS + DAPT (N-[N-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl)-l-alanyl]-s-phenylglycinetbutylester) groups. Heart function was evaluated with a Cardiac Doppler ultrasound. Myocardial morphological changes were detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining (H&E). Apoptosis was assessed by a TUNEL assay. The mRNA and protein levels were detected with real-time PCR, Western blot, and immunohistochemistry analysis. We found that heart function in the LPS + TAK242 group was significantly improved, but not in the LPS + DAPT group. LPS + TAK242 had a lower level of degeneration and necrosis of cardiomyocytes and inflammatory cell infiltration, as well as lower apoptosis and caspase-3 expression than the LPS group. Compared with the LPS group, the inflammatory cell infiltration was reduced in the LPS + DAPT group, while the degeneration and necrosis of cardiomyocytes were not obviously improved. Additionally, the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and Interleukin-6, the protein contents of Notch intracellular domain and Hes1, and the P65 nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) to P-P65 NF-κB ratio in LPS + TAK242 group and LPS + DAPT group were significantly lower than those in LPS group. Conclusively, the interaction between TLR4 and Notch signaling pathways enhances the inflammatory response in the septic heart by activating NF-κB. Blocking the TLR4 pathway with TAK242 can improve heart dysfunction and myocardial damage in sepsis, while blocking the Notch pathway with DAPT cannot effectively prevent heart dysfunction and myocardial damage in sepsis.
Gongolaria barbata forest in the shallow lagoon on the southern Istrian Coast (northern Adriatic Sea)

Published: July 2022

The Gongolaria barbata forest inhabiting Šćuza lagoon on the southern Istrian coast (northern Adriatic) represents the last significant refuge for this species among the shallow waters of the Istrian Coast. The lagoon is characterised by extreme winter and summer temperatures. Moreover, the absence of certain grazers could be one of the main factors favouring the development and growth of G. barbata forest. Two morphologically distinct forms of G. barbata inhabit the lagoon: attached and detached. Abundance and morphological characteristics of each form were analysed in randomly sampled thalli. The wet weight, thallus length, number of cauloids and total cauloid length were significantly higher in the detached than in the attached form. Although the main cauloid was highly branched in both forms, its total length was up to three times higher in the detached than in the attached form. Our study suggests that this population of G. barbata can thrive in the extreme conditions found in the lagoon, while also exhibiting two distinct forms. Furthermore, this large population could serve as a donor for future restoration attempts on the western Istrian Coast where a decline of G. barbata has been confirmed in recent years.
The Band’s The Weight – a semio-cognitive narratological adventure
Authors: Cronquist Ulf , Knap Torben
Published: July 2022

After providing information about details of the song’s historical genesis and an exegetic Explication De Texte we proceed to analyze the lyrics as a modernist, surrealist narrative that is not always easy to make clear sense of, yet best can be understood as a classical structure of dramatic complications and possible catharsis with reference to Per Aage Brandt’s work on diegesis and narrative forces and spaces. Brandt’s contributions to cognitive narratology provide an extended framework of force dynamics, catastrophe theory and structuralist psychoanalysis – also with considerations of intentionality and imagination as integral parts of intersubjectively experienced story-worlds. Our empirical object of study departs from the original canonical recording song lyrics produced in 1968 on the album Music from Big Pink, where the many consecutive live performances by The Band and other artists remain quite faithful to the original text. To the best of our knowledge, a thorough scholarly analysis of the lyrics of The Weight has not yet been available until we now present our detailed, philological amplification on the details of this piece of art.

Published: July 2022

Apple pomace, a byproduct of juice and cider production, is rich in phenolic compounds with antioxidant activity. This work studies the kinetics of solid–liquid extraction of phenolic compounds from apple pomace. Extraction kinetics were determined using a 50% water–ethanol solution and fitted to a phenomenological model. Equilibrium isotherms were also modeled. Effective diffusion coefficient values between 1.85x10−11 and 7.37x10−11 m2/s were found. External mass transfer resistance showed negligible results. The best yields (43.94%) were obtained at 60 °C with a solid–liquid ratio of 1:10 g/mL. Those conditions resulted in a total phenolic content of 9.95 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/g apple pomace d.b., antioxidant FRAP activity of 5.07 mmol ascorbic acid equivalents (AAE)/100 g apple pomace d.b. and 3.74 mmol trolox equivalents (TRE)/100 g apple pomace d.b. based on a DPPH assay. Apple pomace extract efficiently stabilized sunflower oil and may represent a natural alternative to synthetic antioxidants.
Improving the thickness distribution of parts with hybrid thermoforming

Published: July 2022

With the aim of improving the thickness gradient of thermoformed parts, and thus increase their performance and/or reduce their weight, the concept of hybrid thermoforming is introduced, whereby local thickness differences in extruded sheets are created prior to thermoforming. Material is removed by CO2 ablation or 3D printing of an over-thickness at specific locations of sheets previously extruded. The feasibility and potential usefulness of the approach is explored experimentally for the production of a truncated conical cup, since this is a well-characterized application. The conventional thickness distributions obtained by conventional vacuum forming are significantly changed with the new strategy and can be tuned by adequately selecting the locations and amount of material do be removed and/or added.

Authors: Bera Sudip , Dey Hiranya Kishore
Published: July 2022

For a group 𝐺, the enhanced power graph of 𝐺 is a graph with vertex set 𝐺 in which two distinct vertices

x
,
y

x,y

are adjacent if and only if there exists an element 𝑤 in 𝐺 such that both 𝑥 and 𝑦 are powers of 𝑤.
The proper enhanced power graph is the induced subgraph of the enhanced power graph on the set

G
∖
S

G\setminus S

, where 𝑆 is the set of dominating vertices of the enhanced power graph.
In this paper, we at first classify all nilpotent groups 𝐺 such that the proper enhanced power graphs are connected and calculate their diameter.
We also explicitly calculate the domination number of the proper enhanced power graphs of finite nilpotent groups.
Finally, we determine the multiplicity of the Laplacian spectral radius of the enhanced power graphs of nilpotent groups.

Finnischer Tangotanztourismus als verkörperter Raum in einer „Kultur der Schweigsamkeit“
Authors: Thimm Tatjana
Published: July 2022

In diesem Beitrag wird der finnische Tangotanztourismus unter Berücksichtigung des Konzeptes des verkörperten Raumes (Low 2003) und des Raumverständnisses von Lefebvre (1991) auf den vielschichtig miteinander verbundenen Ebenen von Körper, Kultur und Raum analysiert. Die finnische „Kultur der Schweigsamkeit“ wird in diesem Zusammenhang im Besonderen betrachtet. Methodisch werden hierbei sowohl Interviews mit Expertinnen und Experten, teilnehmende Beobachtung als auch die Auswertung von Filmmaterial herangezogen. Im Ergebnis zeigen sich vielfältige Wechselwirkungen von Körper, Kultur und Raum, die zusätzlich Potenziale für den finnischen Tangotanztourismus aufzeigen.

Published: July 2022

On 12 April 2020, a tornadic quasi-linear convective system (QLCS) produced two EF-3 tornadoes in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana in close proximity to instrumentation operated by the University of Louisiana Monroe’s (ULM) Atmospheric Science program. In addition to the in situ environmental information, a high-resolution aerial damage survey was conducted by the ULM Unmanned Aerial Systems program. In this paper, these datasets are used to provide a comprehensive environmental and storm-scale analysis of the tornadic QLCS through northern Louisiana. In addition, we discuss the importance of aerial damage surveys, and how Doppler radar-derived tornado intensity estimates compared to the damage survey.

"Glasses of composition (49-x)H3BO3-35TeO2-15PbO-1.0Nd2O3-xY2O3 (x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mol%) were successfully prepared by a melt-quench method. The effect of Y2O3 on the optical properties of the glasses were investigated by using Uv-Vis NIR and photoluminescence spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction pattern of the prepared glasses exhibits amorphous nature. Absorption spectra of the glasses are recorded in the range 400 – 1100 nm and shows eleven absorption peaks. In order to determine the optical band gap of the glass sample, the Uv-Vis NIR measurement has been carried out in the room temperature. The values of direct and indirect optical band gap initially decreasing before increasing, which were attributed to structural changes induced by the inclusion of Y2O3. The luminescence spectra were obtained under 581 nm wavelength."

Authors: Rifai Nurahmad , Kusumaningtyas Ratna Dewi
Published: July 2022

Tanaman krokot (Portulaca oleracea L.) merupakan tanaman lokal yang berpotensi tinggi sebagai sumber asam lemak omega-3. Isolasi asam lemak omega-3 dari daun krokot telah dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik maserasi. Maserasi dilakukan terhadap 100 g simplisia daun krokot kering dengan berbagai variasi volume pelarut (1; 1,6; 2 L) dan waktu maserasi 20 dan 30 hari. Massa ekstrak terbanyak (14,82 g) diperoleh dari proses maserasi terhadap 100 g simplisia daun krokot yang dijalankan selama 30 hari dengan volume pelarut sebanyak 2 L. Hasil pengamatan juga menunjukkan bahwa peningkatan volume pelarut dan waktu maserasi meningkatkan rendemen ekstrak daun krokot. Hasil analisis Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy mengidentifikasi adanya 2 senyawa komponen asam lemak omega3 pada ekstrak daun krokot, yaitu alpha-linoleic acid (ALA) dan eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Kandungan senyawa ALA sebesar 3,89% dan EPA sebesar 6,95%, sehingga total kandungan omega-3 sebesar 10,84%. Berdasarkan perhitungan, diketahui bahwa kandungan omega-3 pada simplisia daun krokot sejumlah 1,6 g/100 g simplisia dan kandungan omega-3 pada daun krokot segar sebesar 0,12%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa tanaman krokot memiliki potensi yang besar sebagai bahan pangan lokal sumber omega-3. Untuk memberikan perlindungan pada senyawa omega-3, dilakukan proses enkapsulasi ekstrak daun krokot dengan metode plate drying menggunakan penyalut maltodekstrin. Hasil observasi visual menunjukkan bahwa rasio bahan inti dengan penyalut 1:1 memberikan hasil kristal yang lebih baik.
