The Study of the impact of pollutants on the aquatic ecosystem for the purpose of biological indication of areas subject to anthropogenic pollution is extremely important for the Caspian sea. The article presents the restriction DNA analysis of fishes (Neogobiusgorlap) and polychaetes (Nereisdiversicolor) from three habitats of the
coastal zone of the Caspian sea. Currently, the method of DNA analysis, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), developed in 1985, is widely used to assess genome stability [1]. The sensitivity of PCR makes it possible to successfully analyze even degraded DNA from Museum and archaeological samples. In this paper, we used the RAPD-PCR analysis method. In the total selected sample of 3 biotopes, 4 to 11 fragments were evaluated. Visual analysis of DNA fragments obtained for samples had a very high degree of differences (difference). All selected primers showed a different picture of inter-species differentiation. It is absolutely reliable markers (interbreeding specific DNA fragments) to identify phenotypic interbreeding, studied fishes. The most important primers for the samples were OPA09 and OPA-10. During the analysis of polymerase chain reaction spectra with polymorphic and monomorphic DNA of fish caught in sites with different levels of pollution were found. The specific properties of the DNA spectra of the studied fish and polychaetes were determined. A unique DNA fragment was found in polychaetes from the polluted environment, which can be used as a DNA marker.

Published: December 2018

In-service tubular conductors are prone to such anomalies as the wall-thinning defect and hidden corrosion which pose a severe threat to structural integrity. In this paper, a capsule-typed electromagnetic acoustic transducer is proposed for inspection of tubular conductors such as small-diameter pipes subject to external corrosion. An efficient hybrid model of Electromagnetic Acoustic Transduction (EMAT) is established in an effort to reveal the underlying physical phenomena and simulate the resulting responses to external wall-thinning defects in tubular conductors. The model integrates a fast analytical model computing the electromagnetic field and resulting Lorentz force with Finite Element Modeling (FEM) for simulation of ultrasonic field. The established model is corroborated via FEM and experiments, and beneficial to the optimization of the proposed capsule-typed electromagnetic acoustic transducer for non-destructive evaluation of tubular conductors.
Calculation of thermal field and ampacity of overhead power transmission lines using finite element method
Authors: Vo Long Van Hoang , Vu Tu Phan
Published: December 2018

The population explosion and development of the national economy are two main causes of increasing the power demand. Besides, the Distributed Generations (DG) connected with the power transmission and distribution networks increase the transmission power on the existing lines as well. In general, for solving this problem, power utilities have to install some new power transmission and distribution lines. However, in some cases, the install of new power lines can strongly effect to the environment and even the economic efficiency is low. Nowadays, the problem considered by scientists, researchers and engineers is how to use efficiently the existing power transmission and distribution lines through calculating and monitoring their current carrying capacity at higher operation temperature, and thus the optimal use of these existing lines will bring higher efficiency to power companies. Generally, the current carrying capacity of power lines is computed based on the calculation of their thermal fields illustrated in IEEE [1], IEC [2] and CIGRE [3]. In this paper, we present the new approach that is the application of the finite element method based on Comsol Multiphysics software for modeling thermal fields of overhead power transmission lines. In particular, we investigate the influence of environmental conditions, such as wind velocity, wind direction, temperature and radiation coefficient on the typical line of ACSR. The comparisons between our numerical solutions and those obtained from IEEE have been shown the high accuracy and applicability of finite element method to compute thermal fields of overhead power transmission lines.

Slot die coating of nanocellulose on paperboard
Authors: Kumar Vinay , Bousfield Douglas , Toivakka Martti
Published: December 2018

Constantly growing interest in nanocellulose usage and applications is pushing the scientific community to search for suitable production and processing techniques. One example is use of nanocellulose as a barrier material in packaging applications, which requires processing of nanocellulose into films and coatings. It is challenging to coat nanocellulose suspensions using conventional pigment coating techniques due to their yield stress behavior and very high viscosity, even at low solids concentration. This work demonstrates a novel roll-to-roll coating method of nanocellulose on paperboard using slot die geometry. The rheology of nanocellulose suspensions in pressure-driven flow is found to play a critical role in enabling their coating using the said process. In this work, the slot die is used in an unconventional manner where the shearing and metering elements are combined to aid wet film formation and application of nanocellulose suspension onto the paperboard. Barrier performance of the nanocellulose coated paperboards against air, water, heptane vapor, grease, and oils was found to be reasonable and warrants further research on the subject.

Poznati proizvodi mljekarske industrije u Bosni i Hercegovini su autohtoni Livanjski i Travnički sir koji pripadaju grupi sireva proizvedenih od sirovog, nekuhanog ovčjeg mlijeka. Livanjski i Travnički sir su specifični zbog specifičnog biljnog pokrivača na području gdje se proizvode, kao i klimatskih uvjeta i mlijeka autohtone ovce pramenke, tako da možemo očekivati razlike u sadržaju aromatskih komponenti, koje u velikoj mjeri određuju karakteristike spomenutih sireva. Sinteza isparljivih aromatskih komponenti je dinamičan proces koji započinje sazrijevanjem sira do karakterističnog okusa, koji se razvija u vrijeme sazrijevanja. U formiranju okusa i mirisa određene vrste sira ne sudjeluje samo jedna komponenta, nego mješavina komponenti različitih koncentracija. Izuzetno je teško utvrditi koja komponenta je nosilac “tipične arome” određenog sira ili mliječnog produkta. Cilj ovog istraživanja je bio odrediti aromatske komponente u Livanjskom i Travničkom siru, komponente koje determiniraju senzorne karakteristike ovih sireva, te pratiti promjene u njihovom sadržaju ovisno o periodu uzorkovanja. Prema postavljenom cilju istraživanje je obuhvaćalo uzorkovanje i analizu dvije vrste sira, bijelog mekog Travničkog (Vlašičkog) i tvrdog Livanjskog sira. Od isparljivih aromatskih komponenti u uzorcima Livanjskog i Travničkog sira najviše su bili zastupljeni etanol, acetaldehid, etilacetat i 2-butanol. Aromatske komponenete u uzorcima Livanjskog i Travničkog sira su određene HSGC i GC/MS tehnikama.

Batat (Ipomoea batatas L.) je višegodišnja tropska povrtna kultura koja se koristi u hranidbi domaćih životinja (krava, svinja i peradi), a porasla mu je i konzumacija u ljudskoj prehrani posljednjih nekoliko godina. Cilj istraživanja ovog rada je utvrditi sadržaj pepela i škroba batata, radi probavljivosti, nakon konvekcijskog sušenja – dehidriranjem na tri različite temperature sušenja (50, 60 i 70 °C), brzinu otpuštanja vode prilikom sušenja kao i utjecaj temperature sušenja na boju četiriju sorata batata (narančasti Beauregard, ljubičasti 414 Purple, žuti O’Henry i bijeli Japanese). Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da od četiri istraživane sorte samo jedna brže otpušta vodu prilikom sušenja, dok sve ostale otpuštaju vodu podjednakom brzinom. Kod toga je sadržaj pepela rastao povećanjem temperature dok se sadržaj škroba smanjivao. Također je utvrđeno da sušenje utječe na promjenu boje, te se najmanja promjena očekivano očitovala sušenjem na najnižoj temperaturi. Statističkom obradom rezultata utvrđene su signifikantne razlike između sorata i načina termičke dorade.

Neven (Calendula officinalis L.) se uzgaja zbog svoje ukrasne, ali i ljekovite vrijednosti, iako se u posljednje vrijeme sve više upotrebljava i u prehrambenoj industriji. U svježem stanju cvat nevena vrlo brzo gubi svoja svojstva, odnosno boju i kao takav treba se doraditi optimalnim postupcima dorade. Cilj ovog rada bio je istražiti utjecaj različitih temperatura konvekcijskog sušenja dehidriranjem na intenzitet obojenja cvatova u svrhu korištenja nevena kao komponente u hrani za životinje. U istraživanju su korišteni cvatovi nevena narančaste i žute boje. Sušeni su na tri različite temperature (40 °C, 50 °C i 60 °C), pri čemu su utvrđena i kvalitativna svojstva (sadržaj pepela, škroba i ulja), prije i nakon procesa sušenja u svrhu utvrđivanja iskoristivosti u hranidbi životinja prema zakonu NN 102/2016. Korištenjem polinomnih jednadžbi izrađene su krivulje otpuštanja vode iz cvatova u ovisnosti o temperaturi sušenja. Cvatovi žute boje brže su otpuštali vodu pri svim temperaturama te sadržavali bolji intenzitet boje. Sušenje je također utjecalo na sadržaj pepela u cvatovima nevena i učinkovitije je i bolje na nižim temperaturama. Porastom temperature zraka za sušenje porasli su i sadržaj škroba i ulja za obje boje cvatova. Iz dobivenih rezultata vidljivo je da su cvatovi nevena nakon sušenja pogodna komponenta u hranidbi životinja, a najbolji rezultati su dobiveni sušenjem na temperaturi od 50 °C.

Količina proizvedenog mlijeka i postotak mliječne masti u mlijeku, uz genetsku predispoziciju ovise i o opskrbi muznih krava energijom i bjelančevinama. U ovom istraživanju željeli smo utvrditi hranjivost uzoraka fermentiranih travnih masa (FTM) na 5 obiteljskih poljoprivrednih gospodarstava (OPG) sjeverozapadne Hrvatske, većih proizvođača mlijeka, tijekom 4 godine (2013. - 2016.). U ukupno 130 uzoraka FTM-a utvrđen je sadržaj suhe tvari (ST), a NIR spektroskopijom procijenjen sadržaj korigirane ST (KST), sirovih proteina (SP), razgradivih SP, neutralnih detergent vlakana (NDV), metaboličke energije (ME), organske tvari (OT), rezidua šećera, probavljivosti OT u ST (D-vrijednosti), kiselost (pH vrijednost) i sadržaj amonijskog dušika (NH3-N). Analizirani uzorci FTM-a ukazuju na osrednju do nisku kvalitetu i visoku varijabilnost svih kemijskih parametara hranjivosti i kvalitete fermentacije. Fermentirana travna masa je visokovarijabilnog kemijskog sastava radi niza čimbenika koji utječu na njenu kvalitetu. Analizom istraživanih parametara hranjivosti FTM-a i poznavajući i vremenske prilike SZ Hrvatske, kao osnovno ograničenje proizvodnje prvog otkosa FTM-a visoke hranjivosti, može se zaključiti da je opisana hranjivost FTM-a rezultat košnje tratine u kasnijoj fazi fitofenološke zrelosti od optimalne za proizvodnju FTM-a visoke hranljivosti koja je značajna za podržavanje visoke proizvodnje mlijeka.

Published: December 2018

Introdução: Ainda que o Método Pilates (MP) tenha se desenvolvido muito nos últimos dez anos, publicações e evidências cientí­ficas sobre os seus efeitos na composição corporal, IMC e perfil antropométrico são escassos. Objetivo: Avaliar e comparar as medidas antropométricas, IMC e composição corporal de mulheres praticantes do MP. Métodos: Foram avaliadas 50 mulheres, das cidades gaúchas de Osório e Canoas, praticantes do MP há pelo menos seis meses, idade entre 20 e 55 anos. Os dados foram coletados de maio a julho de 2015, em três estúdios de Pilates. Foram mensuradas 48 medidas corporais e realizada comparação entre os dois grupos. Os participantes desse estudo praticam o MP contemporâneo, duas vezes por semana, uma hora em média, em aparelhos e solo. Resultados: Quando avaliadas as medidas de dobras cutâneas, perí­metros, circunferências, diâmetros, comprimentos e IMC, não houve diferenças significativas entre os dois grupos estudados. Contudo, a média do IMC mostrou-se bastante próxima í  faixa do sobrepeso. Quanto í  quantificação dentro dos í­ndices de referência para a gordura corporal em indiví­duos do sexo feminino, 56% da amostra estava acima da média. Conclusão: As caracterí­sticas antropométricas, IMC e composição corporal das participantes são muito semelhantes. Ainda que, a prática do MP seja regular, a média do IMC próxima a faixa de sobrepeso é preocupante.Palavras-chave: antropometria, composição corporal, í­ndice de massa corporal, exercí­cio.

A Fibrose Cí­stica (FC) requer uma abordagem multidisciplinar culminando em um complexo regime terapêutico. A fisioterapia tem papel fundamental na depuração das vias aéreas, melhora da ventilação pulmonar e da tolerância ao exercí­cio. No entanto, aspectos como acompanhamento da evolução clí­nica do paciente, identificação de perí­odos de exacerbação pulmonar e avaliação da adesão ao tratamento também fazem parte da rotina fisioterapêutica. Com o objetivo de contemplar os principais instrumentos disponí­veis que auxiliam em um melhor controle, acompanhamento e avaliação de pacientes com FC, elaborou-se o PASFIC - Protocolo de Atendimento e Seguimento Fisioterapêutico na Fibrose Cí­stica. Este protocolo inclui 10 critérios: 1) fisioterapia respiratória, 2) escore de gravidade, 3) escores de exacerbação pulmonar, 4) avaliação do peso e da estatura, 5) avaliação respiratória, 6) espirometria, 7) coleta de secreção das vias respiratórias, 8) aderência, 9) habilidades funcionais, 10) anormalidades posturais. A finalidade do PASFIC é caracterizar a população, identificar as alterações clí­nicas e acompanhar a evolução clí­nica e o atendimento fisioterapêutico de pacientes com FC, viabilizando suporte assistencial individualizado, uma melhor adesão ao tratamento e intervenção precoce durante as agudizações pulmonares, facilitando a monitorização pela equipe multiprofissional, otimizando o atendimento de pacientes com FC.Palavras-chave: fibrose cí­stica, fisioterapia, protocolos, continuidade da assistência ao paciente.

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of airways mediated by T-helper 2 (Th2) cells involving complex signaling pathways. Although resveratrol has previously been shown to attenuate allergic asthma, the role of miRNA in this process has not been studied. We investigated the effect of resveratrol on ovalbumin-induced experimental allergic asthma in mice. To that end, BALB/c mice were immunized with ovalbumin (OVA) intraperitoneally followed by oral gavage of vehicle (OVA-veh) or resveratrol (100 mg/kg body) (OVA-res). On day 7, the experimental groups received intranasal challenge of OVA followed by 7 days of additional oral gavage of vehicle or resveratrol. At day 15, all mice were euthanized and bronchioalveolar fluid (BALF), serum and lung infiltrating cells were collected and analyzed. The data showed that resveratrol significantly reduced IL-5, IL-13, and TGF-β in the serum and BALF in mice with OVA-induced asthma. Also, we saw a decrease in CD3+CD4+, CD3+CD8+, and CD4+IL-4+ cells with increase in CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ cells in pulmonary inflammatory cell infiltrate in OVA-res group when compared to OVA-veh. miRNA expression arrays using lung infiltrating cells showed that resveratrol caused significant alterations in miRNA expression, specifically downregulating the expression of miR-34a. Additionally, miR-34a was found to target FOXP3, as evidenced by enhanced expression of FOXP3 in the lung tissue. Also, transfection studies showed that miR-34a inhibitor upregulated FOXP3 expression while miR-34a-mimic downregulated FOXP3 expression. The current study suggests that resveratrol attenuates allergic asthma by downregulating miR-34a that induces increased expression of FOXP3, a master regulator of Treg development and functions.

Published: December 2018

The combination of adaptive filters is an effective approach to improve filtering performance. In this paper, we investigate the performance of an adaptive combined scheme between two adaptive multiple-input single-output (MISO) filters, which can be easily extended to the case of multiple outputs. In order to generalize the analysis, we consider the multichannel affine projection algorithm (APA) to update the coefficients of the MISO filters, which increases the possibility of exploiting the capabilities of the filtering scheme. Using energy conservation relations, we derive a theoretical behavior of the proposed adaptive combination scheme at steady state. Such analysis entails some further theoretical insights with respect to the single channel combination scheme. Simulation results prove both the validity of the theoretical steady-state analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed combined scheme.

Published: December 2018

We investigated the role of heat shock transcription factors (Hsfs) during induction of defense response by heat-shock treatment (HST) in tomato. Leaf disease symptoms were significantly reduced at 12 and 24 h after HST, consistent with upregulation of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes PR1a2 and PR1b1 peaking at 24 h after treatment. These genes were upregulated at the treatment application site, but not in untreated leaves. In contrast to HST, inoculation of the first leaf induced systemic upregulation of acidic PR genes in uninoculated second leaves. Furthermore, heat shock element motifs were found in upstream regions of PR1a2, PR1b1, Chitinase 3, Chitinase 9, Glucanase A, and Glucanase B genes. Upregulation of HsfA2 and HsfB1 peaked at 6 h after HST, 6 h earlier than salicylic acid accumulation. Foliar spray of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitor geldanamycin (GDA) induced PR gene expression comparable to that after HST. PR gene expression and defense response against Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) decreased when combining HST with Hsfs inhibitor KRIBB11. The Hsfs and PR gene expression induced by heat or GDA, together with the suppression of heat shock-induced resistance (HSIR) against Pst by KRIBB11, suggested a direct contribution of Hsfs to HSIR regulation in tomato.

The objective of this study was to develop an encapsulated iron supplement for oral ingestion and to determine its effect on the iron nutrition status of suckling pigs. Encapsulated and non-encapsulated iron supplement was prepared. Seventy-two neonatal piglets were assigned to three experimental groups: (1) parenteral group (gold standard treatment), which received one dose of parenteral iron (200 mg), 2 days of age, (2) “non-encapsulated” group (as a control group), which received 4 oral doses of unencapsulated iron supplement at 2, 7, 12 and 17 days of age, and (3) “encapsulated” group, which received 4 oral doses of encapsulated iron supplement on the same days. The encapsulated and unencapsulated iron supplements contained 65.2 and 65.0 mg/iron/dose, respectively. Parenteral treatment was not sufficient to ensure an adequate iron nutritional state in piglets at the end of the lactation period, showing iron depletion (serum ferritin: 8.4 µg/L). In contrast, oral supplementation prevented the development of iron depletion. Higher serum ferritin values were observed in the encapsulated (19.9 µg/L) compared to the unencapsulated group (17.4 µg/L) (p = 0.020). In conclusion, the use of four oral doses of an encapsulated iron supplement prevents iron deficiency anemia and its previous stages in suckling pigs.
Effect of a Strawberry and Spinach Dietary Supplement on Spatial Learning in Early and Late Middle-Aged Female Rats
Authors: Millin Paula M. , Rickert Gina T.
Published: December 2018

The present experiment sought to determine the effect of an eight-week, high antioxidant, whole-foods dietary supplement on Morris Water Maze performance in early and late middle-aged female rats. To improve ecological validity over past experimental studies, rats in the current study received antioxidants by consuming freeze-dried organic strawberries and spinach rather than by being given food extracts or antioxidant injections. Latency and path length measures both indicated that late middle-aged rats fed the high antioxidant diet performed on a par with the younger animals earlier in training than their standard diet counterparts (p < 0.05). Superior performance was not due to improved fitness in the antioxidant-supplemented rats. Thus, our model showed that a high antioxidant diet of relatively short duration mitigated the mild cognitive decline that was seen in control animals during the developmental period of late middle-age. The current results offer support for the promising role of dietary antioxidants in maintaining cognitive health in normal aging and extend past findings to females, who have been relatively neglected in experimental investigations. Moreover, the current model suggests that the period of transition from early to late middle age is a promising target for dietary intervention in healthy adults.
Early Therapeutic Prediction Based on Tumor Hemodynamic Response Imaging: Clinical Studies in Breast Cancer with Time-Resolved Diffuse Optical Spectroscopy
Authors: Ueda Shigeto , Saeki Toshiaki
Published: December 2018

This study reports data from three clinical studies using the time-resolved diffuse optical spectroscopy (TRS) system among breast cancer patients. The parameters of oxy-hemoglobin (O2Hb), deoxy-hemoglobin (HHb), total hemoglobin (tHb), and oxygen saturation (SO2) were evaluated using TRS, and its efficacy was tested in three trials. In trial 1, we recruited 118 patients with primary breast cancer to estimate the tumor detection rate. The cumulative detection rate was 62.7%, while that in T stage 0 was 31.3% and in T stage 1 was 44.7%. These were lower than those of T stage 2 (78.9%) and T stage 3 (100%). Next, we used TRS to monitor tumor hemodynamic response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (n = 100) and found that pathological complete response (pCR) tumors had significantly lower tumor tHb than non-pCR tumors; a similar result was observed in estrogen receptor (ER)-negative tumors, but not in ER-positive tumors. The third trial monitored hemodynamic response to antiangiogenic therapy, bevacizumab (n = 28), and we demonstrated that sequential optical measurement of tumor SO2 might be useful for detecting acute hypoxia 1–3 days after bevacizumab initiation. Next, response monitoring of neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (n = 30) suggested that changes in tumor tHb during treatment can predict and distinguish between responsive and non-responsive tumors early in letrozole therapy. In conclusion, our results show that hemodynamic monitoring of tumors by TRS could pair the unique features of tumor physiology to drug therapy and contribute to patient-tailored medicine. We recently established a platform for performing TRS in patients with breast cancer.
