Durante años la evolución del cuidado intensivo ha intentado ofrecer una atención basada en protocolos y paquetes de manejo agrupados por patologías y cuadro sindromáticos. Aunque se logró disminuir la mortalidad en diferentes patologías (sepsis y síndromes coronario agudo y de distrés respiratorio agudo), no se han resuelto por completo los problemas clínicos, en especial el diagnóstico y el manejo. Una nueva opción ha surgido en el horizonte denominada “medicina de precisión”, entendida como estrategia de prevención y tratamiento que tiene en cuenta la variabilidad individual. La sepsis es un síndrome con múltiples aristas en cuanto al fenotipo y genotipo, cuyo diagnóstico temprano es relevante para los desenlaces clínicos. Hasta el momento el enfoque principal ha sido la identificación de un germen etiológico para diferenciarla del síndrome de respuesta inflamatoria sistémica (SIRS). En los últimos años el paradigma en enfermedades infecciosas ha cambiado debido a estudios que demuestran como la respuesta inmunitaria del paciente séptico tiene un papel clave en el desarrollo de la enfermedad, con implicaciones en el diagnóstico, pronóstico y tratamiento, que podrían ayudar a cambiar el abordaje en los próximos años gracias a una estrategia basada en medicina de precisión. Hoy los aislamientos microbiológicos y los cultivos siguen siendo el estándar de referencia con varias desventajas como el tiempo para obtener resultados, sobre todo en infecciones por gérmenes resistentes u hongos, que pueden retrasar el inicio de la terapia antimicrobiana. Como alternativa se ha planteado el uso de biomarcadores en sepsis que siendo productos de la respuesta inflamatoria del individuo ante la infección, son útiles para el diagnóstico y pronóstico primordialmente en los críticamente enfermos. Decidimos realizar esta revisión narrativa acerca de la utilidad de los biomarcadores en pacientes con sepsis críticamente enfermos, para enfocarlos en un modelo de medicina personalizada.

Published: April 2020

Kurzfassung

Der Digital Twin soll Unternehmen über Closed-Loop-Zugriffe wertvolle Einblicke in allen Phasen des Lifecycles geben. Dadurch lassen sich in sämtlichen Bereichen, von der Entwicklung bis zur Wartung, erhebliche Einsparungen erzielen und neue Geschäftsmodelle etablieren. In der Praxis scheitern jedoch viele entsprechende Initiativen, weil keine Aktualisierungen von Metadatenmodellen erfolgen. Die Ursache dafür ist häufig eine schlecht integrierte PLM-Software. Gefragt sind deshalb Lösungen, die komplett selbst anpassbar sind und einen durchgehenden Blick auf sämtliche Daten liefern.
Digitaler Zwilling und Produktion 4.0
Authors: Himstedt Steffen
Published: April 2020

Kurzfassung

Der Digitale Zwilling ist einer der am häufigsten benutzten Begriffe im Umfeld Industrie 4.0 und digitaler Transformation. Fragt man jedoch nach, was unter dem Digitalen Zwilling eigentlich zu verstehen ist, erhält man unterschiedliche Antworten. Der Bezug auf das 3-D-Modell des Produkts ist dabei das vorherrschende Beispiel, darauf aufbauend dann Anwendungen der virtuellen oder erweiterten Realität für Instandhaltung und Service. Dabei liegen, wie bei einem Eisberg, 90 Prozent der Daten und Prozesse, die einen Digitalen Zwilling repräsentieren, häufig nicht im Blick der Beteiligten. Wie sieht also eine ganzheitliche Perspektive über Wertschöpfungsstufen und Systemgrenzen hinweg aus?

Authors: Marton Zsuzsanna
Published: April 2020

Az emberi elme egyik sajátossága a jövőről való gondolkodás, melynek kontextusa életkoronként, életszakaszonként változik. A jövővel kapcsolatos gondolatok főként a jövőbeni célokra, preferenciákra és azok stratégiai megvalósítására terjednek ki. Az egyén lélektani fejlődését tekintve a serdülőkor az az időszak az emberek életében, amikor már előtérbe kerülnek a felnőtt életformával kapcsolatos, jövőképet nagyobb mértékben meghatározó (stratégiai fontosságú) döntések.A jövőképvizsgálat szempontjából a fiatal serdülők egyik speciális szegmensét képezik a szakképzésben tanuló diákok, ugyanis ők középiskola-választásukkal egy lépéssel közelebb kerülnek a felnőtté váláshoz, a munka világához, mint más egykorú társaik. Jelen tanulmány a szakképzésbe bekapcsolódó fiatalok jövő-orientációját vizsgálja különös tekintettel a család szocio-demográfiai hátterének szempontjaira.Thinking about the future is a unique attribute of the human mind, whose context changes by ages or lifecycles. Future thoughts mainly focus on future goals, preferences and their strategic implementation. From the psychological development’s point of view, the adolescence can be considered a determining life period of people, when strategic decisions related to adulthood get priority. Regarding future studies, students in vocational education form a form a special segment of the young adolescents; hence, they got one step closer to adulthood and work than their contemporaries. This study aims to analyse the future orientation of vocational school students with special focus on the family and its socio-demographic background.

Published: April 2020

Purpose- Prevalence of corporate frauds is critical, therefore, identifying and institutionalizing the bad apples in the barrel which are engaged in wrongdoings is much needed and must be brought to the lights through whistleblowing. Design/Methodology- Data were collected from the South Asian countries through a structured questionnaire from the employees of the telecom sector. Three hundred twenty-nine samples were gathered to test hypothesized relationships. Findings- Results showed that whistleblowing intentions of employees through psychological stress mediates the behaviors of their leaders, which turns ethical leadership at the workplace. Further, ethical leadership positively impacts employees’ intention to blow the whistle at the workplace. Furthermore, the analysis showed that interactional justice moderates the relationship between ethical leadership and intention to blow the whistle of employees Practical Implications- This research gives a different perspective to the managers to develop such a culture that enables an honest and trustworthy environment, which may enable the employees to point out the wrongdoings they witness while working at the workplace.

Published: April 2020

The aim of this study was to explore the changes in the adipokines leptin and adiponectin in obese patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who underwent seven days of fasting and 21 days of low-calorie diet (LCD). The plasma leptin and adiponectin concentrations were measured in 14 obese patients with T1DM at baseline, immediately after 7 days of fasting, and after 21 days of LCD. 13 non-obese patients with T1DM were studied only after an overnight fasting. Bioimpedance technique was used for determination of body composition. Obese T1DM patients lost 6.0 kg (6.0; 6.8) (median, 25 %; 75 %) and decreased their fat tissue after fasting and LCD. Plasma leptin in obese T1DM was significantly higher than in non-obese T1DM patients: 9.10 (5.06; 25.89) vs. 1.71 (1.12; 7.08) µg ∙ l−1 and transiently decreased immediately after fasting: 3.45 µg ∙ l−1 (1.47; 7.00), (P<0.05). Adiponectin/leptin ratio in obese T1DM was significantly lower than in non-obese T1DM patients: 0.67 (0.57; 1.49) vs. 3.50 (2.46; 6.30) ∙ 103 and transiently increased immediately after fasting: 2.22 (1.26; 3.24) ∙ 103, (P<0.05). We conclude that obese patients with T1DM are characterized by hyperleptinemia that is reduced by prolonged fasting, but only slightly affected by low calorie diet.

Continuous normobaric hypoxia (CNH) renders the heart more tolerant to acute ischemia/reperfusion injury. Protein kinase C (PKC) is an important component of the protective signaling pathway, but the contribution of individual PKC isoforms under different hypoxic conditions is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression of PKCε after the adaptation to CNH and to clarify its role in increased cardiac ischemic tolerance with the use of PKCε inhibitory peptide KP-1633. Adult male Wistar rats were exposed to CNH (10 % O2, 3 weeks) or kept under normoxic conditions. The protein level of PKCε and its phosphorylated form was analyzed by Western blot in homogenate, cytosolic and particulate fractions; the expression of PKCε mRNA was measured by RT-PCR. The effect of KP-1633 on cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was analyzed after 25-min metabolic inhibition followed by 30-min re-energization in freshly isolated left ventricular myocytes. Adaptation to CNH increased myocardial PKCε at protein and mRNA levels. The application of KP-1633 blunted the hypoxia-induced salutary effects on cell viability and LDH release, while control peptide KP-1723 had no effect. This study indicates that PKCε is involved in the cardioprotective mechanism induced by CNH.

Oxidation of Ni-Cr-Co-Al-Mo-Ti-Re-Ta-W-Ru Single Crystals at 1000 oC in Air
Authors: Hahn Junhee , Xiao Xiao , Lee Dong Bok
Published: April 2020

Three kinds of Ni-based single crystals with the compositions of 63.8Ni-7.5Cr-5.1Co-4.8Al-1.9Mo- 0.9Ti-3Re-11.8Ta-1.2W, 61.4Ni-7.4Cr-5Co-4.8Al-1.8Mo-0.9Ti-3.1Re-11.6Ta-4W, and 60.9Ni-7.5Cr-5Co-4.8Al- 2Mo-1Ti-2.9Re-10.9Ta-1.2W-3.8Ru, in wt%, were cast in a Bridgman furnace. In the cast alloys, Cr, Co, Re, Mo, W, and Ru became microsegregated in dendrites consisting of γ-Ni, while Ni, Ta, and Al microsegregated in interdendrites consisting of eutectic γ/γ . The cast alloys were oxidized at 1000 oC up to 275 h in air to study the effect of alloying elements on high-temperature oxidation. The oxide scales consisted primarily of CrTaO4, with some NiCr2O4, NiO, and α-Al2O3. The oxidation resistance was dependent on the formation and continuity of the α-Al2O3 scale. Ta and W were beneficial, while Ru was harmful in improving the oxidation resistance. The selective oxidation of Al in dendrites led to the formation of thin, uniform α-Al2O3 scales, i.e., uniform oxidation. The competitive oxidation of active elements such as Al, Ti, and Ta in interdendrites led to the formation of porous, crack-susceptible oxide nodules, i.e., nodular oxidation. Less active elements such as Ru, Re, Ni, Co, Mo, W, and Cr tended to enrich in the vicinity of the oxide nodules. The oxidation progressed through the outward diffusion of cations and the inward diffusion of oxygen. This inward diffusion formed internal alumina islands, beneath the oxide scale.
Effects of Growth Temperature on the Physicochemical and Photoelectrochemical Properties of a Modified Chemical Bath Deposited Fe2O3 Photoelectrode
Authors: Hong Yaejin , Jeon Seung-Hwan , Ryu Hyukhyun , Lee Won-Jae
Published: April 2020

In this study, Fe2O3 photoelectrode thin films were grown on fluorine-doped tin oxide substrates at various temperatures ranging from 145 to 220 oC using modified chemical bath deposition. The morphological, structural, electrical, and photoelectrochemical properties of the resulting Fe2O3 photoelectrode were analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and a three-electrode potentiostat/galvanostat, respectively. Growth temperature and hydrochloric acid etching both affected the growth of the Fe2O3 photoelectrode, with Fe2O3 thin film thickness first increasing and then decreasing as growth temperature increased. The pH value of the precursor solution varied according to growth temperature, which in turn affected film thickness. The highest photocurrent density (0.53 mA/cm2 at 0.5 V vs. saturated calomel electrode) was obtained from the Fe2O3 photoelectrode grown at 190 oC, which yielded the thickest thin film, smallest full width at half maximum and largest grain size for the (104) and (110) plane, and highest flat-band potential value. Based on these findings, the photoelectrochemical properties of Fe2O3 photoelectrodes grown at various temperatures are strongly affected by their morphological, structural, and electrical properties.

Authors: Burgos Ortiz Andres Mateo , Polanco Barreto Angela María
Published: April 2020

Los estímulos ambientales y socioafectivos que recibe un niño en los primeros años de vida son fundamentales para el aprendizaje y el desarrollo de las habilidades lectoras. En este sentido, gran parte de la población infantil colombiana no alcanza el nivel de dominio lector esperado para la edad, quizá debido a diferentes aspectos contextuales que merman su capacidad cognitiva básica. Este estudio busca comprender si pueden ser considerados los procesos atencionales, como predictores cognitivos de la comprensión lectora de niños y niñas en un colegio distrital de la ciudad de Bogotá. Se empleó un diseño no experimental de un grupo aleatorizado, que se implementó a 30 niños y niñas. La evaluación neuropsicológica se realizó mediante los siguientes instrumentos: Sub pruebas Escala de Inteligencia Wechsler para Niños IV -WISC-IV- (dígitos en orden directos, dígitos en orden inverso, letras y números, animales, búsqueda de símbolos), Trail Making Test (parte B) y Sub pruebas Evaluación Neuropsicológica Infantil -ENI- (precisión y comprensión de oraciones). Se realizó un análisis correlacional de las puntuaciones obtenidas, mediante el coeficiente de correlación de Pearson, lo que permitió determinar que el proceso atencional dividido, tanto visual como verbal, tiene una correlación significativa (r = 0.61 y r = 0.40) con el proceso de comprensión lectora de los niños y niñas evaluados.

Published: April 2020

In this study, stone mastic asphalt (SMA-13) mixtures were designed using three methods, namely the vertical-vibration testing method (VVTM), Marshall method, and superpave gyratory compactor method (SGC). The performances of SMA-13 designed by all three methods were measured and compared. Results show that the optimal asphalt content of the asphalt mixture was 5% lower in the VVTM-designed SMA-13 than in the Marshall-designed and SGC-designed asphalts mixture. In comparison with the Marshall- and SGC-designed asphalts mixture, the VVTM-designed SMA-13 exhibited higher density (2.4% and 2.2% increase, respectively), mechanical properties (32% and 13% increase, respectively), high-temperature rut resistance (30% and 8% increase, respectively), low-temperature crack resistance (20% and 17% increase, respectively), water stability (4% and 3% increase, respectively), and fatigue life (at least 33% and 9% increase, respectively). The VVTM-designed SMA-13 exhibited a deeper short-term aging degree than the other SMA-13 specimens, but a smaller long-term aging degree. In summary, the SMA-13 mixture designed by the VVTM method delivered a better road performance and durability than the traditional design method, enabling improved designs of SMA mixtures.

Published: April 2020

Waterborne pathogens affect all waters globally and proceed to be an ongoing concern. Previous methods for detection of pathogens consist of a high test time and a high sample consumption, but they are very expensive and require specialist operators. This study aims to develop a monitoring system capable of identifying waterborne pathogens with particular characteristics using a microfluidic device, optical imaging and a classification algorithm to provide low-cost and portable solutions. This paper investigates the detection of small size microbeads (1–5 µm) from a measured water sample by using a cost-effective microscopic camera and computational algorithms. Results provide areas of opportunities to decrease sample consumption, reduce testing time and minimize the use of expensive equipment.
A Modified Bursting Energy Index for Evaluating Coal Burst Proneness and Its Application in Ordos Coalfield, China
Authors: Liu Xuewei , Liu Quansheng , Liu Bin , Kang Yongshui
Published: April 2020

Coal burst is a type of dynamic geological hazard in coal mine. In this study, a modified bursting energy index, which is defined as the ratio of elastic strain energy at the peak strength to the released strain energy density at the post-peak stage, was proposed to evaluate the coal burst proneness. The calculation method for this index was also introduced. Two coal mines (PJ and TJH coal mines) located in Ordos coalfield were used to verify the validity of the proposed method. The tests results indicate that modified bursting energy index increases linearly with increasing uniaxial compressive strength. The parameter A, which is used to fit relation between total input and elastic strain energy density, has a significant effect on the modified bursting energy index. A large value of parameter A means more elastic strain energy before the peak strength while a small value indicates most of input energy was dissipated. Finally, the coal burst proneness of these two coal mines was evaluated with the modified index. The results of modified index are consistent with that of laboratory tests, and more reasonable than that from original bursting energy index because it removed the dissipated strain energy from the total input strain energy density.
Space Charge Accumulation at Material Interfaces in HVDC Cable Insulation Part II—Simulations of Charge Transport
Authors: Doedens Espen , Jarvid E. Markus , Guffond Raphaël , Serdyuk Yuriy V.
Published: April 2020

Extruded high voltage direct current (HVDC) cable systems contain interfaces with poorly understood microscopic properties, particularly surface roughness. Modelling the effect of roughness on conduction in cable insulation is challenging, as the available results of macroscopic measurements give little information about microscopic charge distributions at material interfaces. In this work, macroscopic charge injection from interfaces is assessed by using a bipolar charge transport model, which is validated against a series of space charge measurements on cable peelings with different degrees of surface roughness. The electric field-dependent conduction and charge trapping effects stimulated by the injection current originating from rough surfaces are assessed. It is shown that by accounting for roughness enhanced charge injection with the parameters derived in part I of the paper, reasonable agreement between computed and measured results can be achieved at medium field strengths (10–40 kV/mm).

Published: April 2020

Big Data and Internet and Communication Technologies (ICT) are being increasingly implemented in the healthcare sector. Similarly, research in the field of dental medicine is exploring the potential beneficial uses of digital data both for dental practice and in research. As digitalization is raising numerous novel and unpredictable ethical challenges in the biomedical context, our purpose in this study is to map the debate on the currently discussed ethical issues in digital dentistry through a systematic review of the literature. Four databases (Web of Science, Pub Med, Scopus, and Cinahl) were systematically searched. The study results highlight how most of the issues discussed by the retrieved literature are in line with the ethical challenges that digital technologies are introducing in healthcare such as privacy, anonymity, security, and informed consent. In addition, image forgery aimed at scientific misconduct and insurance fraud was frequently reported, together with issues of online professionalism and commercial interests sought through digital means.
Molecular Functionality of Plant Proteins from Low- to High-Solid Systems with Ligand and Co-Solute
Authors: Paramita Vilia Darma , Panyoyai Naksit , Kasapis Stefan
Published: April 2020

In the food industry, proteins are regarded as multifunctional systems whose bioactive hetero-polymeric properties are affected by physicochemical interactions with the surrounding components in formulations. Due to their nutritional value, plant proteins are increasingly considered by the new product developer to provide three-dimensional assemblies of required structure, texture, solubility and interfacial/bulk stability with physical, chemical or enzymatic treatment. This molecular flexibility allows them to form systems for the preservation of fresh food, retention of good nutrition and interaction with a range of microconstituents. While, animal- and milk-based proteins have been widely discussed in the literature, the role of plant proteins in the development of functional foods with enhanced nutritional profile and targeted physiological effects can be further explored. This review aims to look into the molecular functionality of plant proteins in relation to the transport of bioactive ingredients and interaction with other ligands and proteins. In doing so, it will consider preparations from low- to high-solids and the effect of structural transformation via gelation, phase separation and vitrification on protein functionality as a delivery vehicle or heterologous complex. Applications for the design of novel functional foods and nutraceuticals will also be discussed.

This paper presents a model for developing research
questions that are aligned to research aims for research design in
e‑learning. The model is proposed as a solution to the on‑going
problem of heterogeneity of research problems. The model is based on
Burrell and Morgan’s four social paradigms, and integrates four
research aims, namely, explore, explain, develop and describe; four
design positions, namely, formalist, populist, functionalist and
conventionist; and four pursuits of (hu)mankind, namely, virtue,
value, power and knowledge. Four of Roode’s (1993) research
questions are mapped onto each of the consolidated paradigms. The
feasibility of the model was tested against eight papers in previous
issues of this journal. Two questions drove the study: what are the
paradigms in which the selected articles can be classified, and how
are these paradigms aligned to the research aims and research
questions? The model was found to be useful in aligning the implied
research aims and research questions of the selected papers. The
model is proposed as a useful tool for supervisors and novice
researchers to assist with the development of integrated research
aims and research questions. Further research will include the
development of generic question stems that can be used as the first
few words of the questions that correspond to each aim.
Medical Student Perceptions of Integration of a Customized
Cloud Based Learning Operating System into Problem Based Learning
Tutorials
Authors: Razzak Rima Abdul , Hasan Zuheir , Stephen Arpan
Published: April 2020

Since its inception, the College of Medicine and Medical
Sciences (CMMS) at the Arabian Gulf University (AGU) has adopted the
problem based (PBL) pedagogy in Medicine relying on paper‑based
trigger material. However, delivery of such paper‑based triggers
during tutorial sessions was not optimal to promote medical student
interactivity and engagement within tutorial sessions. As
involvement of multimedia resources and tools in PBL are more
valuable than simple print textual modes of learning and can have a
positive impact on learning and knowledge integration, we aimed to
digitize all our trigger material. Over the past three years CMMS
has integrated after customization to PBL standards, the cloud‑based
operating system, UNIO into its problem‑based learning (PBL)
curriculum. The aim of UNIO integration was to digitize text
triggers and enhance the quality of visual triggers in order to
improve medical student interactivity and engagement within tutorial
sessions. UNIO electronic platform was customized from a
teacher‑centered design to fit a PBL pedagogy. It was utilized to
link student and tutor hardware within a group together for
promoting interaction and collaborative learning. The effect of this
teaching approach was evaluated from student responses to an
in‑house validated survey at the end of the fifth PBL module.
Customization and integration of UNIO within the PBL curriculum
resulted in an entirely paperless learning process. It created an
integrated PBL system combining conventional text trigger in a
digital form with digital media such as images, videos and other
multimedia, while maintaining face‑to‑face setup. It also provided
online and off ‑live access to content embedded at campus and open
access to open source content online to both tutors and students.
Results of the student satisfaction survey pointed to a
predominantly neutral attitude towards integration of UNIO within
our PBL tutorial sessions, but the item related to effectiveness of
media triggers within UNIO received favorable responses from
students. Further evaluation for a longer term is necessary for
additional student feedback. Other forms of evaluation may be
required in the aim of improvement and for justification of
subsequent implementation of UNIO within our PBL
curriculum.

As the Regulation of the Minister of Research, Technology and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia No. 9 of 2018 concerning the accreditation of scientific journals article 4 which mentions the requirements of scientific journals, it has been announced on the official website page of ARJUNA (National Journal Accreditation), that regarding the Circular of the Director of Intellectual Property Management Number 101 / E5.2 / SE / 2018 dated 18 January 2018 regarding Accreditation of Scientific Periodicals only accepts and processes the proposed national scientific (periodical) journal accreditation that has been managed electronically, so that the assessment process will be easier, faster, accurate and transparent (ARJUNA, 2018). But in reality in the era of the industrial revolution 4.0, the Government was not well organized. There are a total of 3 (three) problems from 2 (two) sides of website users, namely there are still many institutions or agencies that in the management use conventional processes so that people who want to publish their articles digitally are constrained with limited access, there are still minimal agencies that have not been able to provide a forum to provide educational support facilities and Open Journal System (OJS) in the form of attractive website-based e-commerce. In this study there are 2 (two) data collection methods, namely observation and literature study methods. The results of this study are Pandawan e-commerce based websites that provide journal publisher services that can be managed online, as well as solving publisher problems in managing journals online.

Der vollen Ideen und Forschung Sozialen Arbeit im Kontext Mensch mit Behinderung in Deutschland orientiert sich nicht nur nach Inklusion aber auch nach einem ursprünglichen schulpädagogischen Diskurs, der jedoch spätestens mit der Ratifizierung der UN Behindertenrechtskonvention (UB-BRK) im Jahr 2009 in nahezu allen Bereichen der Pädagogik den Fachdiskurs maßgeblich prägt. Ein wichtiges außerschulisches pädagogisches Handlungsfeld, das sich die Verwirklichung einer „inklusiven Gesellschaft“ zur Aufgabe  gemacht hat, ist die sozial-kulturelle Inklusion und Bildung explizit erwähnt. Immer wieder Zukünftig gehe es darum, Menschen mit Behinderungen barrierefreie Zugänge zu den kulturellen Materialien und Orten des Sozial-kulturelles Leben zu ermöglichen.

Authors: Sutoni Akhmad
Published: April 2020

Abstract— The supply chain management of the coconut industry in the Sula Islands district is still felt to be ineffective and inefficient. The advantage of effective supply chain management is to get maximum speed when goods and services move through the supply chain channel, lower costs, and increase added value for customers and product competitiveness in the market. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the management of the coconut industry supply chain. The method used is descriptive qualitative analysis. Those who play a role in the coconut supply chain in the Sula Islands district are farmers, collectors I, collectors II, owners of home industries, transport vehicle owners and marine vessels as modes of transportation. With this supply chain channel, there are only a few benefits for farmers and business operators. The added value of coconut and copra is very small, meaning that the economic value obtained is very small. To provide greater economic value for residents of the Sula Islands district, especially for coconut farmers and coconut entrepreneurs, so coconut fruit must be processed not only until copra, but made in industrial scale coconut oil.Keywords— Supply Chain; Coconut; Industry; Coconut oil; Sula Islands Regency. Abstrak— Manajemen rantai pasok industri kelapa di kabupaten Kepulauan Sula masih dirasakan belum efektif dan efisien.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengidentifikasi dan menganalisis   pengelolaan   rantai   pasokan industri kelapa. Metode yang digunakan adalah Analisis deskriptif kualitatif.  Yang berperan dalam rantai pasokan kelapa di kabupaten Kepulauan Sula adalah petani, pengepul I, pengepul II, pemilik industri rumahan, pemilik kendaraan angkut dan kapal laut sebagai moda transportasi. Dengan jalur Rantai Pasokan seperti ini hanya sedikit keuntungan yang didapat oleh petani maupun pelaku usaha. Nilai Tambah dari Kelapa dan Kopra sangat kecil, berarti Nilai ekonomi yang didapatpun sangat kecil. Untuk memberikan nilai ekonomi lebih besar bagi penduduk kabupaten Kepulauan Sula, terutama bagi petani Kelapa dan pelaku usaha Kelapa, makanya buah Kelapa harus diolah tidak hanya sampai Kopra, tetapi dibuat minyak Kelapa berskala industri.Kata kunci— Rantai Pasok; Kelapa; Industri; Minyak Kelapa; Kabupaten Kepulauan Sula.

Published: April 2020

This research attempts to understand the public perception in Bangladesh regarding the measures taken by the government. Corresponding to the fact that this is a war like situation, this study has found that the measures taken by the Bangladesh government should have been taken earlier and more robust measures are necessary to stop this pandemic. Different government authorities partially failed to communicate the measures of the government to the wider public audience. Moreover, this research finds that a proper coordination among all the agencies would help to contain the disease with a continuous lockdown and social distancing policy. Hospitals should be well equipped and frontline fighters should be well protected as well.
