Mobile Apps for Dental Caries Prevention: Systematic Search and Quality Evaluation (Preprint)
Authors: Chen Rebecca , Santo Karla , Wong Grace , Sohn Woosung , Spallek Heiko , Chow Clara , Irving Michelle
Published: May 2020

BACKGROUND

Dental caries is the most common multifactorial oral disease; it affects 60% to 90% of the global population. Dental caries is highly preventable through prevention behaviors aimed at improving oral hygiene, adequate fluoride usage, and dietary intake. Mobile apps have the potential to support patients with dental caries; however, little is known about the availability, target audience, quality, and features of these apps.

OBJECTIVE

This review aims to systematically examine dental caries prevention apps; to describe their content, availability, target audience, and features; and to assess their quality.

METHODS

We systematically identified and evaluated apps in a process paralleling a systematic review. This included a search strategy using search terms; an eligibility assessment using inclusion and exclusion criteria focused on accessibility and dental caries self-management behaviors, including oral hygiene, dietary intake, and fluoride usage; data extraction on app characteristics, including app store metrics; prevention behavior categorization; feature identification and description; a quality appraisal of all apps using the validated Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS) assessment tool; and data comparison and analysis.

RESULTS

Using our search strategy, we retrieved 562 apps from the Google Play Store and iTunes available in Australia. Of these, 7.1% (40/562) of the apps fit our eligibility criteria, of which 55% (22/40) targeted adults, 93% (37/40) were free to download, and 65% (26/40) were recently updated. Oral hygiene was the most common dental caries prevention behavior domain, addressed in 93% (37/40) of the apps, while dietary intake was addressed in 45% (18/40) of the apps and fluoride usage was addressed in 42% (17/40) of the apps. Overall, 50% (20/40) of the apps addressed only 1 behavior, and 38% (15/40) of the apps addressed all 3 behaviors. The mean MARS score was 2.9 (SD 0.7; range 1.8-4.4), with 45% (18/40) of the apps categorized as high quality, with a rating above 3.0 out of 5.0. We identified 21 distinctive features across all dental caries prevention behaviors; however, the top 5 most common features focused on oral hygiene. The highest-ranking app was the Brush DJ app, with an overall MARS score of 4.4 and with the highest number of features (n=13). We did not find any apps that adequately addressed dental caries prevention behaviors in very young children.

CONCLUSIONS

Apps addressing dental caries prevention commonly focus on oral hygiene and target young adults; however, many are not of high quality. These apps use a range of features to support consumer engagement, and some of these features may be helpful for specific patient populations. However, it remains unclear how effective these apps are in improving dental caries outcomes, and further evaluation is required before they are widely recommended.

Published: May 2020

BACKGROUND

In this study, we describe a participatory, co-design process to develop a technology-based pilot intervention (Mobile SunSmart) for sun safety for children and their families. Our methodology embraces and leverages the expert knowledge children and their families have about their sun safety practices to directly influence the design of our JITAI-intervention.

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this paper is to describe our research procedures and summarize primary findings to be used for the development of our JITAI prototype.

METHODS

We conducted iterative co-design workshops involving design expert KidsTeam UW children (N=11) and subject expert children and their families from local communities in Southern California (N=48). Based on the qualitative data from co-design discussions and artifacts, relevant themes and distinct concepts were extracted and coded by the investigators.

RESULTS

Three overarching themes emerged: 1) preference for non-linear educational format with less structure for sun safety-related education, 2) situations are not always ideal or convenient for prioritizing sun safety, 3) challenges, barriers and ambiguity relating to sun safety to protect oneself and one’s family. The discussions also highlighted that not all technological artifacts would be equally suitable for everyone or across all contexts. Based on the design ideas and feedback provided by our participants, three modules are under development: personalized and interactive data intake module, narrative-education module, person-level and real-time tailored JITAI and assessment modules.

CONCLUSIONS

Mobile SunSmart is one of the first projects that maximally engage children co-designers and families to build a technology to improve sun safety with iterative and intentional design principles. Our scalable approach to design a mobile JITAI to improve sun safety will lay the foundation for future public health investigators for similar endeavor.
Enhancing the Performances of Polymeric PVDF Membranes for Oil/Water Separation by Hydrophilic and Underwater Oleophobic Surfaces Modification
Authors: Senusi Faraziehan , Ballinger Benjamin , Ismail Suzylawati
Published: May 2020

This paper investigates the permeability and separation performance of polyphenolic-amine coated PVDF membrane with hydrophilic (26.9 ± 5.6°) and underwater oleophobic (162.1 ± 5.1°) surface modification. Surface chemical structures, surface compositions and hydrophilicity of membranes were investigated by Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and contact angle analyses, respectively. The separation of emulsion oil solutions was evaluated using cross-flow filtration mode in term of high permeation flux and excellent oil resistance. Then, the flux recovery ratio of filtration process was calculated at different transmembrane pressures (TMP) and initial concentrations of emulsion feed solutions. The results showed a decrease in the flux recovery ratio at higher pressures and initial oil concentrations. By applying Hermia’s blocking model, formation of cake layer shows dominant fouling mechanism for the emulsion oil separation process.

Published: May 2020

Smallanthus sonchifolius [Poepp. & Endl.] H. Robinson (Asteraceae) also known as Yacon or insulin plant, is traditionally used for treating diabetes. Varying geographical origins and postharvest handling, however, seem to affect quantitative and qualitative metabolites in the leaves of Smallanthus sonchifolius [Poepp. & Endl.] H. Robinson (Yacon). The study was conducted to compare and differentiate metabolites profile/fingerprint of Yacon leaves which were grown and obtained from different locations in Pulau Jawa i.e. Lembang (Jawa Barat) and Wonosobo (Jawa Tengah). Three different solvents (95% ethanol, 50% ethanol and water) were used to synthesize Yacon leaves extracts, in order to determine the suitable solvent to produce discernable differentiation through FTIR and HPLC-based metabolomics. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of FTIR data (4000–400 cm1 wavenumber) indicated that Yacon leaves extracted with ethanol at 95%, had a distinctive FTIR fingerprint profile when compared to others. However, the FTIR-based PCA could not differentiate the extracts based on their geographical origins, although PCA analysis of HPLC-data successfully differentiated the extracts based on their geographical origins. Furthermore, the prominent peak for the leaves extract from Lembang and Wonosobo as regards retention time, was observed at 21.59–25.10 min and 20.69–21.695 min respectively. Notably, R2Y and Q2 value obtained by cross-validation and permutation tests showed all multivariate models were statistically reliable. Overall, there is the need to conduct further research using a more sophisticated tool such as LC-MS, to identify which metabolites represented by the aforementioned FTIR and HPLC data.

Published: May 2020

Graphene oxide with eggshells (GO/ES) adsorbent has been studied for fluoride ions (F–) removal. An adsorption study was conducted in batch experiments at different adsorption parameters, which are initial F– concentration, contact time, and temperature. The effects of these adsorption parameters towards F– removal by using GO/ES adsorbent were investigated. The adsorption parameters were then analyzed with adsorption isotherms (Langmuir and Freundlich), kinetics (pseudo-first-order and second-order) and thermodynamic studies. Under various parameters, GO/ES is proven as an effective adsorbent with an adsorption capacity of F– are up to 48 mg/g. The experimental data were satisfactorily fitted with Langmuir isotherm, which illustrated the monolayer pattern of F– adsorption into GO/ES adsorbent. The adsorption kinetic analysis indicated that the adsorption data could be well described by Pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which indicated the chemisorption process, while thermodynamic studies revealed that the adsorption of F– was an exothermic process.

Published: May 2020

It is very important to develop controlled-release fertilizers to ensure efficiency and environmental protection. This study aims to make a superabsorbent hydrogel-based controlled-release urea fertilizer. Superabsorbent hydrogels were prepared from the cellulose of corn cobs cross-linking with epichlorohydrin, and then an amount of urea as a fertilizer was stored inside the hydrogels (GEL-A). The GEL-A functionalization with carboxy-methyl was also carried out in this study to improve the hydrophilicity of hydrogels (GEL-B). GEL-A and GEL-B were immersed in water at a certain pH and temperature range and the urea concentration released from the hydrogels was monitored by a spectrophotometer. The results showed that the urea released by GEL-A and GEL-B was not much different. Respectively, the urea efficiency of GEL-A and GEL-Bwas around 5.29% and 5.56% for 180 min. The urea released from both hydrogels was not significantly affected by changes in the temperature of the solution. Urea release was influenced by pH, and the rate of urea release of GEL-B was faster than GEL-A, so pH control was needed in the application of this slow-release fertilizer.
Evaluation of Total Flavonoid, Total Phenolic Contents, and Antioxidant Activity of Strychnobiflavone
Authors: Ullah Sana , Hyun Chang-Gu
Published: May 2020

This work evaluates the antioxidant activity of strychnobiflavone due to the increasing demand of the antioxidant agents day by day. Various in vitro antioxidants assays such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) were used to investigate the antioxidant activity of strychnobiflavone. The results of both DPPH and ABTS show that strychnobiflavone increase the scavenging activity in a concentration-dependent manner due to the phenolic and flavonoid contents. This study revealed that strychnobiflavone is one of the promising and an effective compound for the antioxidant agent.
Education Policy: Addressing Racial Health Disparities in Educational Contexts
Authors: Williams-Breault Beth D.
Published: May 2020

Race, ethnicity, and Socioeconomic Status (SES) influence physical and mental health throughout the life course. Institutional and interpersonal discrimination is particularly detrimental, especially for children, and is associated with poor health outcomes. One of the most important determinants of long-term health is lifelong educational attainment. Center-based Early Childhood Education (ECE) and School-Based Health Centers (SBHCs) can help overcome educational obstacles and increase medical services in disadvantaged populations while fostering health equity. Educators involved in ECE programs and SBHCs for poor and minority youth must be involved in the policy making process in order to ensure that educational quality is considered essential to the long-term effects of health equity.

E3 ubiquitin ligase components (version 2019.5) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database
Authors: Faccenda Elena , Layfield Robert
Published: May 2020

Ubiquitination (a.k.a. ubiquitylation) is a protein post-translational modification that typically requires the sequential action of three enzymes: E1 (ubiquitin-activating enzymes), E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes), and E3 (ubiquitin ligases) [16]. Ubiquitination of proteins can target them for proteasomal degradation, or modulate cellular processes including cell cycle progression, transcriptional regulation, DNA repair and signal transduction. E3 ubiquitin ligases, of which there are >600 in humans, are a family of highly heterogeneous proteins and protein complexes that recruit ubiquitin-loaded E2 enzymes to mediate transfer of the ubiquitin molecule from the E2 to protein substrates. Target substrate specificity is determined by a substrate recognition subunit within the E3 complex.
SARS-CoV-2 proteins (version 2020.2) in the IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology Database

Published: May 2020

Coronaviruses are large, often spherical, enveloped, single-stranded positive-sense RNA viruses, ranging in size from 80-220 nm. Of the four structural proteins encoded in the viral genome, the RNA winds around the highly basic nucleocapsid (N) protein. The three other structural proteins, envelope (E), membrane (M) and spike (S), are transmembrane proteins. The E protein is a small (9-12 kDa) single transmembrane domain protein, which enables virus assembly with the M protein, a larger (23-35 kDa) 3TM protein. Coronaviruses are named for the crown-shaped appearance of the virus due to the large (120+ kDa) S spike 1TM glycoprotein, which forms extended homotrimers. The spike protein binds to the animal host cell by interacting with specific anchoring proteins, typically proteinases, such as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 or aminopeptidase N. This binding facilitates viral entry into the cell and the release of the genome. Aside from the four structural proteins, the remainder of the genome encodes accessory or non-structural proteins and includes proteinases to cleave the two encoded polyproteins. The remainder of the genome encodes elements for viral replication, assembly and release, as well as proteins which manipulate the host's innate immune system.

A Internet pode ser uma fonte de apoio social que auxilia no aprimoramento de competências parentais. Objetivou-se analisar o panorama internacional das pesquisas que investigaram apoio social online entre cuidadores de crianças e jovens. O estudo consiste em uma Revisão Integrativa em Rede da Literatura (RIRL) que aborda a literatura como uma rede de associação de variáveis e a analisa com base na Teoria dos Grafos. A busca ocorreu em duas bases de dados e os estudos foram filtrados por meio de dois testes de relevância. Foram resgatados 36 artigos, cujos resultados foram convertidos em 53 variáveis, que foram categorizadas conforme suas relações. Considerando-se a recorrência de relações entre as variáveis, conclui-se que “Participação em grupos online” favorece o “Apoio social”, a “Conexão com outras pessoas na mesma situação” e o surgimento do “Senso de comunidade”. Outros achados são discutidos de acordo com as medidas de redes.

Published: May 2020

No presente artigo buscaremos demonstrar como o textualismo e a subsequente análise textual podem ser utilizados como instrumentos de diminuição do arbítrio e proteção de direitos fundamentais a partir da análise do julgamento proferido pelo Supremo Tribunal Federal Recurso Extraordinário nº 661.256/SC, fazendo uma análise dos votos proferidos a partir das teorias explicitadas e como tais produções de intersubjetividade afastam-se da busca pelo significado do texto legal. A partir daí, faremos uma análise teórica do originalismo e do textualismo, postulando o uso dos brocardos latinos “noscitur a sociis” e “ejusdem generis” como ferramentas de auxílio na construção de significado. Ao final, será analisado o diploma normativo subjacente ao recurso qual seja, o parágrafo segundo do Artigo 18 da Lei 8.213/91 e a palavra “prestação” neste contexto, a partir do instrumentário previamente citado, qual seria seu significado, como foi ignorado no julgamento e o perigo sistêmico de, com isso, estarmos em um “governo de homens”, ao invés de um “governo de leis”.
A EXTRAFISCALIDADE DO IPTU COMO FERRAMENTA DE ENFRENTAMENTO CONTRA AS GENTRIFICAÇÕES E DE FORTALECIMENTO DA FUNÇÃO SOCIAL DA PROPRIEDADE
THE EXTRAFISCALITY OF IPTU AS A COOLING TOOL AGAINST GENTRIFICATIONS AND STRENGTHENING THE PROPERTY'S SOCIAL FUNCTION
Authors: Maia Fernando Joaquim Ferreira , Brisola Anna Karla da Silva , Moura Bruna Lis Tavares
Published: May 2020

Esta pesquisa tem por objeto o viés extrafiscal do imposto predial e territorial urbano (IPTU) na perspectiva do dever fundamental de contribuir para o desenvolvimento das cidades. A gentrificação é uma prática comum na América Latina que retira da classe trabalhadora o direito à moradia para concretizar tão somente interesses imobiliários.  Assim sendo, esse artigo se justifica em razão da segregação socioespacial causada pela especulação imobiliária no meio urbano, violando os objetivos da Constituição Federal de 1988.  Utilizar-se-á como método o positivismo lógico, através da análise do IPTU e da função social da propriedade na Constituição Brasileira de 1988 e nas legislações vigentes. O problema central que se pretende enfrentar é a possibilidade de os tributos municipais combaterem ou não a gentrificação urbana. A partir desta problemática, têm-se como objetivos: 1) analisar se a expansão imobiliária causa um processo de exclusão social e fere os objetivos constitucionais; 2) verificar se existe fortalecimento da função social da propriedade com a aplicação do IPTU e uma concretização ao direito à moradia; 3) estudar se a extrafiscalidade serve como mecanismo de combate à gentrificação. Parte-se da hipótese de que a extrafiscalidade tributária pode servir como mecanismo de minimização das contradições geradas pelo processo de gentrificação urbana.
BREVES APONTAMENTOS SOBRE O ILUMINISMO JURÍDICO-CRIMINAL PORTUGUÊS: RUPTURAS E PERMANÊNCIAS NO CONTEXTO DE UM "ESTADO" JURISDICIONAL
BRIEF NOTES ON PORTUGUESE CRIMINAL-ENLIGHTMENT: RUPTURES AND PERSISTENCES IN A JURISDICTIONAL “STATE” CONTEXTO
Authors: Massuchetto Vanessa Caroline
Published: May 2020

O presente artigo realiza um repasse nas questões jurídicas do iluminismo português mantendo maior enfoque na seara criminal a partir do estudo às Ordenações Filipinas, à legislação extravagante e aos Estatutos da Universidade de Coimbra (1772). O objetivo é identificar quais elementos iluministas, circulantes na Europa da segunda metade do século XVIII, impactaram na ordem jurídica criminal do Antigo Regime português a ponto de causar rupturas e quais práticas permaneceram em reprodução. O panorama considerado é a configuração do que António Manuel Hespanha denomina de “Estado” jurisdicional, isto é, uma estruturação político-jurídica de administração do Império embasada muito mais na faceta judiciária – o que concedia um amplíssimo espaço de arbitrariedade de aplicação legislativa por parte dos magistrados – do que em métodos de coerção advindos diretamente do rei. Assim, foram privilegiadas as especificidades e as diferentes dimensões presentes na ordem jurídica lusitana, permitindo concluir pela dificuldade na reprodução práticas de certas teorias e ideais iluministas específicos da seara criminal.
O PROBLEMA DO AFETO NO DIREITO DE FAMÍLIA: O AFETO COMO VÍNCULO OBJETIVO CONSTITUTIVO E DISTINTIVO DE PERTENCIMENTO À ENTIDADE FAMILIAR
THE PROBLEM OF AFFECTION IN FAMILY LAW: THE AFFECT AS A LINK OBJECTIVE CONSTITUTIVE DISTINCTIVE OF THE FAMILY ENTITY
Authors: Poli Leonardo Macedo , Corcione Giulia Miranda
Published: May 2020

Partindo da indenização por abandono afetivo, analisam-se neste texto duas perspectivas sobre o afeto: o sentimento e o dever de cuidado. A revisão das duas correntes leva à necessidade de fundamentar uma nova perspectiva que acolha a complexidade das relações familiares contemporâneas: o afeto enquanto vínculo constitutivo e distintivo da entidade familiar. A afetividade passa a ser entendida como o elemento necessário à constituição de família e à distinção desse tipo de relação frente a outras. Serão analisadas as teorias da causalidade adotadas no Brasil e na Itália, para avaliar a que melhor se aplica ao caso mencionado. Distinguem-se também os danos moral e existencial, para verificar qual deles é incidente em situações de abandono parental. Numa abordagem interdisciplinar, reavalia-se o princípio da afetividade e sua abordagem no ordenamento jurídico atual. Conclui-se que a subjetividade do afeto é inelidível e, por si mesmo, não pode constituir elemento gerador de direitos ou deveres. Postula-se então que os componentes de um grupo social têm autonomia para reconhecer o afeto como constituinte de sua relação, atribuindo-lhe constância tal, que se expresse no desejo mútuo de manter sua pertença e fortalecer sua vinculação recíproca. Esse ato de nomeação pelo qual tal grupo, em razão de seu afeto, se percebe como família é uma forma de objetivação suficiente para que o direito recupere, no afeto autodeclarado, seu objeto de intervenção.

Batch spawning in five species of minnows (Cyprinidae) from Ontario, Canada
Authors: Quinn Norman W.S.
Published: May 2020

Batch spawning, the act of spawning more than once within a spawning season, is assessed in six species of minnows (Cyprinidae) from Ontario, Canada. The bimodal frequency distribution of egg size in mature specimens suggests that the following species are batch spawners: Blacknose Dace (Rhinichthys atratulus), Brassy Minnow (Hybognathus hankinsoni), Common Shiner (Luxilus cornutus), Creek Chub (Semotilus atromaculatus), and Hornyhead Chub (Nocomis biguttatus). However, there is no evidence that Northern Pearl Dace (Margariscus nachtriebi) is a batch spawner. Thus, we now have evidence that 11 of 39 cyprinid species in Ontario are batch spawners. Knowledge about the reproductive habits of these species should be integrated into the comprehensive standards for the protection of fish habitat in Ontario to ensure the survival of populations.
A successfully breeding, partially leucistic American Robin (Turdus migratorius)
Authors: Zitani Nina M. , Grieves Leanne A. , Thorn R. Greg
Published: May 2020

American Robin (Turdus migratorius) is the most abundant and broadly distributed thrush in North America. Both sexes likely engage in mate choice, and there is some evidence of assortative mating based on breast colour in this species. Over two breeding seasons, we documented a case of partial leucism, primarily of the breast feathers, in a male American Robin in London, Ontario, Canada. We report evidence that the leucistic robin was capable of successful breeding. How the fitness of leucistic versus normal robins compares and how leucism influences mate choice in this and other species remain to be explored.
Tall grass prairie ecosystem management—a gastropod perspective
Authors: Nicolai Annegret , Forsyth Robert G. , Grantham Melissa , Hamel Cary D.
Published: May 2020

Less than 5% of the original tall grass prairie in North America remains. A portion of this remnant, composed of wetland, grassland and forest, is protected by the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) in southern Manitoba. This heterogeneous ecosystem has rich biodiversity; however, gastropods have not been surveyed in Canada’s tall grass prairie. We studied gastropods in Prairie, Wet Meadow, Forest, and Wet Forest habitats of the Manitoba Tall Grass Prairie Preserve that vary with respect to land management practices (prescribed burning, grazing by cattle). Gastropod community composition was unique in the Prairie where mounds of grass litter form permanently moist cavities harbouring aquatic species, while dry-habitat species colonized the upper parts of these mounds. Gastropod communities in Prairie habitats were negatively affected by grazing and burning that occurred in the five years prior to our survey. Unburned Forest patches included both forest gastropod species and edge effect influenced open-habitat species and harboured the most diverse gastropod communities. These unburned Forest patches potentially provide a species pool for post-burn prairie recolonization. The gastropod community of Wet Meadows was not affected by grazing and was composed mainly of aquatic species. In this gastropod survey five species were recorded from Manitoba for the first time. The rare Blade Vertigo (Vertigo milium) is also reported.
First record and new host record of the obligate dulotic ant, Polyergus bicolor (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), in Alberta, Canada

Published: May 2020

We describe the discovery of Polyergus bicolor, an obligate slave-making ant species, as a new provincial record in Alberta. This species was previously known mostly from eastern Canada and the northeastern United States and has been sparsely collected: only once in the past 50 years. Polyergus bicolor was discovered parasitizing Formica podzolica, which is also a new host for the species. This discovery marks a significant expansion of both range and host for P. bicolor.

Introduction. Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare and very aggressive hematological malignancy derived from precursor of the plasmacytoid dendritic cell. We present a case with cervix uteri involvement without skin lesions, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of BPDCN localized in the cervix. Case outline. A 66-year-old previously healthy women initially presented with a four-week history of vaginal bleeding. Gynecologic examination revealed a tumorous bleeding formation on cervix uteri. Except paleness of the skin, physical examination results were normal. Complete blood counts showed anemia and thrombocytopenia. Computed tomography scans showed an expansive tumorous formation at the level of the isthmus and cervix uteri, 60 ? 42 mm in size. Cervical biopsy was done and final pathohistological diagnosis was BPDCN. Karyotype analysis results from the bone marrow aspiration specimen demonstrated tetrasomy of chromosome 2 and monosomy of chromosome 16. The patient did not accept treatment and died two months after the initial diagnosis was established. Conclusion. Attributes such as aggressive clinical course of BPDCN, demonstrated unusual localization, infrequency, and the absence of consensus about standard treatment options, demand constructive clinical reasoning and tight cooperation between medical professionals of various fields.

Las metamorfosis de la Colección Tezontle. El primer catálogo literario del Fondo de Cultura Económica
Authors: Cervantes Becerril Freja Ininna
Published: May 2020

En este ensayo se analiza la conformación del catálogo literario de la Colección Tezontle del Fondo de Cultura Económica. Para ello se estudia el origen de las publicaciones literarias en el desarrollo del proyecto fundador de la editorial, y se atienden las peculiaridades de la colección entre 1940 y 1965. En este periodo de la historia del Fondo, que corresponde a las dos primeras direcciones de Daniel Cosío Villegas y Arnaldo Orfila Reynal, se observa la aparición de las primeras ediciones literarias con el sello Ediciones Tezontle y Tezontle que hasta 1954 el Fondo distribuyó y comercializó “desinteresadamente”. A partir del Catálogo general de 1955, la serie Tezontle aparece como una colección más de la empresa editora, sumando su catálogo al resto de las publicaciones. Esta transición de sello independiente a colección exigió una metodología propia para el estudio de su naturaleza pragmática, la cual se relaciona con las políticas culturales de los editores del Fondo y su práctica editorial.

Tissue culture have been used for plant propagation generally, and the medium has been important role in its growth. Vegetative propagation on Phalaenopsis sp orchids can be through the protocorm like bodies (PLB). Medium of affect on propagation of PLB was carried out on medium type, kind of basal medium and concentrations ratio of naphtaleneacetic acid (NAA) and benzylamino purine (BAP). The experiment used Completely Randomized Factorial Design with 3 replications and continued with the Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) if there were significant differences. The results showed that the best callus formed in a combination of solid medium type and Murashige & Skoog (MS) basal medium was 100%. The most number of PLB produced from a combination of liquid medium types and a concentration ratio of NAA 1 mgL-1 and BAP 5 mgL-1, the most number of plantlet produced from a combination of MS basal medium and the concentrations ratio of NAA 0.1 mgL-1 and BAP 0.1 mgL-1, the number of PLB germination and PLB with leaves were influenced by each single factor.

Non-tidal swamp is one of suboptimal land available to increase rice production in Indonesia. The problems is stagnant flooding during vegetative growth phase of the crop. Therefore, it is important to have rice varieties that tolerant flooding. Crossing and selection have been conducted to obtaine BC2F2 genotype from local swamp rice varieties, i.e. Siam, Pegagan and Pelita Rampak. This research was aimed at knowing the growth and production of several genotypes BC2F2 and their parental varieties, Siam, Pegagan and Pelita Rampak. The research was conducted in non-tidal swamp in Village Sako, sub-district Rambutan, District Banyuasin, South Sumatra from October 2017 to March 2018. Rice genotypes have been used BC2F2 Siam, BC2F2 Pegagan, and BC2F2 Pelita Rampak, and their parental varieties i.e. Siam, Pegagan, and Pelita Rampak. The results showed that genotype BC2F2 had vegetative and generative characters different from those of Siam, Pegagan, and Pelita Rampak. The production of the tested rice varieties was high, ranged from 4.52 to 7.95 tonnes per hectare. The best of each genotypes planted in the first season were SM 2, PGG 4, and PLR 3. While the best BC2F2 of each genotypes planted in the second season were SM 2, PGG 3, and PLR 3.

Combine harvester is a rice harvester that can cut the panicles of standing plants, knock down and clean the grain while crossing the rice fields. The use of combine harvester can potentially damage the soil, the soil becomes hard and the use of fuel causes potential air pollution in the rice field environment. The objectives of this study were to identify the impact of soil compaction due to the use of a combine harvester machine and to determine what physical properties affect the soil compaction due to the use of a combine harvester machine. Equipment and materials used for the sand cone test in this study include:transparent bottles, calibration funnels, plates for sand funnels, hammers, spoons, brushes, chisels, scales and sand. The results showed that soil compaction causes porosity and soil permeability was reduced so that it can inhibit plant growth. Soil compaction affects soil physical properties such as bulk density, porosity, and groundwater content.

Way Kambas National Park (WKNP) is home of five protected big mammals including sumatran elephants.  It shares its border with 22 of 37 villages surrounding the national park.  Understanding their existence in the wild is a priority, and  wildlife genetics is a crucially needed. Besides poaching and habitat fragmentation, wildlife-human conflict is one big issue.  Elephant Training Center (ETC) in WKNP is built for semi in-situ conservation effort on captive sumatran elephants that mainly have conflict histories with local people.  Participative observation and bio-molecular analysis were conducted to learn the importance of captive Sumatran elephant for conservation effort.  Through captive sumatran elephants, database and applicable methods are expected to be developed supporting the conservation of their population in the wild.  Participative observation and molecular identification was carried on captive sumatran elephants in ETC, WKNP under multiple year Terapan grant of Ministry of Research and Technology Higher Education, Indonesia. Gene sequence and cytological analyses showed that the captive sumatran elephants are closely related and tend to be domesticated.  Translocation among ETC to avoid inbreeding, and maintaining the captive sumatran elephant as natural as possible are highly recommended. Developing genetic database can be a reference for both captive and wild sumatran elephants.

Published: May 2020

Kebebasan berkontrak bukanlah kebebasan tanpa batas. Kontrak standar pengadaan barang dan jasa pemerintah merupakan salah satu pembatas kebebasan berkontrak.  Pembentukan dan pengaturan hak dan kewajiban yang termuat dalam kontrak pengadaan barang dan jasa,  didasarkan pada peraturan standar yang termuat dalam Standar Dokumen Pengadaan/Standar Dokumen Pengadaan Secara Elektronik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis  keberlakuan prinsip kebebasan berkontrak dalam kontrak standar, serta bentuk  kebebasan berkontrak dalam kontrak standar pengadaan barang dan jasa pemerintah. Melalui penelitian yuridis normatif, penelitian ini menemukan  kontrak standar bertentangan dengan prinsip kebebasan berkontrak, kemudian ditemukan bentuk kebebasan berkontrak dalam kontrak pengadaan barang dan jasa pemerintah yaitu pada tahapan pra kontraktual. Pada tahapan kontraktual dan tahapan post kontraktual, kebebasan berkontrak hanya merupakan pelaksanaan dari ketentuan undang-undang. Untuk itu, rekomendasi dari penelitian ini adalah  perlu dilakukan perubahan terhadap ketentuan mengenai hak dan kewajiban para pihak baik pada tahap pra kontraktual, kontraktual, maupun post kontraktual  pada kontrak pengadaan barang dan jasa.
COMPETITION LAW HARMONIZATION: WHAT ASEAN CAN LEARN FROM OTHERS?
Authors: Sayekti Cenuk
Published: May 2020

This paper examines the difficulties of competition law harmonisation in ASEAN. Harmonisation is believed as the main tool to help ASEAN from legal friction and tension when it engaged cross-border trade within its region. The benefits of harmonisation are expected to help the member states to avoid negative impact of anti-competitive conducts. Nevertheless, there is a concern arising from such integration of competition law: differences of treatment and dissonant of legal culture.
