Published: September 2023

Kesenjangan gender dalam partisipasi politik perempuan di Indonesia merupakan isu penting dalam demokrasi yang inklusif. Meskipun memiliki hak yang sama, keterlibatan perempuan terhambat oleh bahasa dan simbol-simbol yang tidak responsif gender dalam kampanye. Namun, peraturan hukum, seperti UU Pemilu, memberikan dukungan untuk lingkungan yang inklusif. Pada Pemilu Legislatif 2019, terdapat fokus pada penggunaan strategi kampanye inklusif yang menggabungkan bahasa dan simbol yang responsif gender. UU Pemilu mengamanatkan minimal 30% keterwakilan perempuan dalam daftar calon legislatif. Dengan menggunakan bahasa yang netral gender, kampanye dapat menumbuhkan suasana yang mendorong keterlibatan politik perempuan. Selain itu, peraturan seperti PKPU tentang Kampanye Pemilu mendorong penggunaan bahasa dan simbol yang responsif gender untuk mencegah diskriminasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menemukan, menganalisis, dan menyelesaikan masalah yang terkait dengan kurangnya partisipasi politik perempuan di Indonesia dan kurangnya inklusi dalam kampanye politik, menganalisis tantangan yang terkait dengan gender dalam kampanye politik, mengembangkan strategi kampanye inklusif yang berfokus pada penggunaan bahasa dan simbol gender yang responsif, dan mengukur bagaimana strategi-strategi ini berdampak pada partisipasi politik perempuan. Penelitian ini menggunakan dua metode utama, yaitu online research dan studi literatur. Hasil dari Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kesadaran terhadap masalah gender dalam politik, memberikan pedoman praktis untuk kampanye politik inklusif, dan memberikan bukti empiris yang berguna untuk perdebatan kebijakan.

This study examines the relationship between migration (M), economic activity (EA), and the labour market (LM) in the Republic of Kazakhstan from 2000 to 2022. The research comprises three stages, namely indicator selection, data analysis, and correlation-regression analysis. The study hypotheses propose that migration has a notably adverse influence on both the labor market and economic activity. Secondary data from the World Bank and the National Bureau of Statistics of the Republic of Kazakhstan were employed, covering the years 2000 to 2022. The chosen variables encompass migration growth, GDP, labor productivity, investment in fixed assets, real wages, and unemployment rates. The research includes three latent variables: migration (M), economic activity (EA), and the labor market (LM). The measurement models for these variables show acceptable to high reliability, suggesting a sufficient association between the included variables. Regression analysis reveals a significant negative impact of migration on both economic activity and the labour market. Migration can significantly influence economic activity, unemployment rate, and real wages. The findings support the hypotheses, indicating positive economic indicators and the country's socio-economic development trends. These results are valuable for understanding population dynamics and the potential impact of migration on the economy and social processes in Kazakhstan. Overall, the study provides insights into the relationships between migration, economic activity, and the labour market, highlighting the importance of these factors in shaping the country's development.

Published: September 2023

In this paper, Review on bi-directional DC/DC buck-boost converter with dual control strategy during regenerative braking is used for a two-wheeler application. To reduce the harmful emissions from automobiles and massive surges in fuel prices, automotive electric vehicles are an effective alternate solution. In this paper, a cascaded bi-directional DC/DC buck-boost converter with dual control strategy during regenerative braking is used for a two-wheeler application. The dual control strategy with the cascaded converter is used to increase the average power stored during the braking period and to reduce the vehicle’s stopping time. The converter with the proposed control strategy used in this work has made it possible to charge the battery even when the back emf of the machine is less than the battery voltage. A fuzzy logic control strategy is used to consider the non-linear factors like SOC, speed of the vehicle and the required brake force. This is done in order to make the system more reliable and realistic. implementing the dual control strategy, the average power stored by the battery is increased by 2.5 times and the vehicle comes to halt faster in comparison with the existing control strategy. The versatility of the strategy is shown by examining three different scenarios during the regenerative braking process

Published: September 2023

Ionic liquids (ILs) carrying special properties can act as electronic as well as steric stabilisers by preventing nanoparticle (NP) growth and NP aggregation. The effect of visible light on the catalytic properties of silver nanoparticles is a hot topic of extensive research nowadays. The present report demonstrates the current developments in the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles in ionic liquids and a detailed study of the room-temperature catalytic and photocatalytic reduction of p-nitrophenol (PNP) to p-aminophenol (AP). The Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) functionalised by ionic liquids are prepared in the 40-140 nm range and are found to be spherical in shape. The photocatalytic properties of these nanocomposites for the reduction of PNP to AP were studied. Photocatalytic degradation of PNP was also analysed by these composite nanostructures. The plasmonic photocatalytic properties of the synthesised AgNPs revealed activity significantly higher than that of the room-temperature catalysis. Density functional theory calculations showed that strong interactions exist between nanoclusters and ILs. Natural bond orbital analysis showed that IL also activates the nanoparticles for further photocatalytic reduction by transferring electron transfer from the donor (IL) to the acceptor (Ag cluster) and activating the silver NPs for further catalytic reaction. Photocatalytic degradation of PNP (reduction of PNP to AP) using NP in the absence of light follows first-order kinetics, whereas in the presence of light it follows zero-order reaction kinetics.

Currently, groundwater is largely becoming the main source of fresh water in most developing countries. However, various deleterious impacts resulting from anthropogenic activities beneath the earth’s surface have significantly affected groundwater quality, as evidenced in several areas endowed with mineral and hydrocarbon deposits, agricultural activities, and industrial processes. The possible etiological impacts may include cancer and genetic aberrations which result from the toxic effects of organic waterborne contaminants ingested by humans and animals over time. The motivation behind this study was to identify and determine the concentration profiles of various organic pollutants in the wells located along the Kerio Valley water basin near the exploratory wells for hydrocarbons and mining activities. Therefore, this study is necessary in unraveling the level of organic contaminants in the sampled borehole water, which can then be extrapolated to cover other boreholes within the Kerio Valley basin. The study was carried out during the dry season of December 2022. The water samples from the boreholes were extracted using a solid phase extraction procedure and characterized using a gas chromatograph interfaced with a mass selective detector. The findings indicate that benzene derivatives which were mainly xylenes, 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, 1-ethyl-3-methylbenzene, 1-methyl-2-propylpentylbenzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as naphthalene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, azulene, and pyrene were found in most of the boreholes sampled. Furthermore, long-chain hydrocarbons were present in all groundwater samples with varying concentrations. The concentration of benzene derivatives ranged from 2.84 to 20.47 ppm. However, polycyclic hydrocarbons exhibited the highest concentrations of all organic pollutants, with pyrene giving a concentration of 23.14 ppm, fluoranthene (18.54 ppm), phenanthrene (14.13 ppm) and anthracene (11.06 ppm). According to the findings reported in this study, most of the borehole water in the Kerio Valley basin is contaminated and may be unsafe for drinking. Most of the reported concentration levels were several times higher than the standards of the U.S. Environmental and Protection Agency. However, it is necessary to develop a policy framework on the assessment and monitoring of water quality in the region and propose urgent measures to ensure a clean water supply for the benefit of residents.
Heavy metal concentrations in drinking water in the region north-east of Jhunjhunu, Rajasthan, India
Authors: Kumar Anil
Published: September 2023

Groundwater is contaminated by undesirable elements that are introduced directly or indirectly into a natural water reservoir supplied by human activity, thus changing its physico-chemical properties. The north-east of Jhunjhunu in Rajasthan state of India was chosen as the study area due to the lack of research evidence in the past. The heavy metal content of a total of 42 water samples was analysed using an atomic absorption spectrometer. The copper and iron content in the groundwater of the study area is revealing a spatial distribution range of 1.75 to 4.01 mg/L for copper and 0.44 to 1.22 mg/L for iron. The obtained result was compared with Buero of Indian Standard (10500:2012), Indian Council of Medical Research, and World Health Organisation. There are iron and copper mining facilities in the studied area. Therefore, the concentration of both minerals was observed in the groundwater of all sampling stations. The iron and copper content are much higher in groundwater than the permissible limit of Buero of Indian Standard and World Health Organisation. The manganese content was not detected at all sampling sites. Both iron and copper elements are trace elements, and their higher concentration has proven to be a major problem and there are many health risks associated with it. These observed concentrations indicate a hazardous risk to human health. The official authorities should take the necessary measures in this regard.

Organic salt, 9-aminoacridinium picrate (9-AAcPc), containing equimolar quantities of 9-aminoacridine and picric acid was obtained and a single crystal was grown by the slow evaporation method in the mixture of methanol: tetrahydrofuran solvent (1: 1, v: v). The molecular structure of the prepared compound was confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopic methods, as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The X-ray diffraction analysis of the crystal structure of the title compound showed the presence of the triclinic space group P-1 with no. 2, a = 8.2811(7) Å, b = 10.1003(9) Å, c = 13.4484(13) Å, α = 83.521(3)°, β = 83.330(3)°, γ = 66.595(3)°, V = 1022.56(16) Å3, Z = 2, μ(MoKα) = 0.108 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.375 g/cm3, 56338 reflections measured (5.89° ≤ 2Θ ≤ 56.704°), 5097 unique (Rint = 0.0400, Rsigma = 0.0210) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0552 (I > 2σ(I)) and wR2 was 0.1757 (all data). The molecular geometry was also optimized using density functional theory. The frontier molecular orbitals were calculated, and we discussed the probability that the proton transfers from the phenolic OH group of picric acid to different nitrogen units. The calculated electronic structure properties of the title molecule, such as the HOMO and LUMO analysis, and different molecular electrostatic potential maps, were obtained by using the density functional theory method, and the calculated structure was compared with the experimental structure. The thermal stability of the crystal was also analyzed using the TGA/DTG technique.

Nanometal oxides have attracted considerable research interest because of the widespread applications in which nanomaterials can be synthesised in various oxide forms that can adopt various structural geometries with unique electronic band structures. Additionally, nanometal oxides provide unique features imputed to quantum confinement effects that stimulate changes in their optical, electrical, and optoelectronic behaviours. Meanwhile, introducing such nanometal oxides into host polymeric materials enables the formation of advanced polymeric nanocomposites with versatile properties. Even so, the utilisation of such nanocomposites in diverse potential applications requires a fundamental understanding of their inherent material functionalities. Therefore, this document aims to demonstrate the importance of polymer nanocomposites with a special focus on the impact of nanometal oxides to enhance the optical and electrical behaviours of polymer composites for advanced optoelectronic and energy storage applications.

Published: September 2023

Os antibióticos são agentes farmacológicos utilizados na terapia medicamentosa contra vários patógenos biológicos. As penicilinas fazem parte da classe das beta-latctâmicos. A utilização racional e ou irracional das penicilinas, pode provocar o aparecimento de diversos efeitos alérgicos. Estes efeitos alérgicos são desencadeados pela estimulação do sistema imunológico. A farmácia clínica está diretamente ligada ao cuidado farmacêutico, tendo como foco o paciente. O objetivo do presente artigo é realizar uma revisão integrativa da literatura sobre o tema: uso da penicilina em pacientes alérgicos. Foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico nas bases de dados Scielo, LILACS, LA Referência e PubMed, no período de janeiro de 2013 a julho de 2023, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol. Foram encontrados 15 publicações que atenderam aos critérios de inclusão e exclusão. A análise das publicações demonstrou que as penicilinas fazem parte da classe dos beta-lactâmicos e são pequenas moléculas (<1000Da) cuja interação com o sistema imunológico pode ser explicada por três hipóteses, a saber: a hipótese dos haptenos, a hipótese do “perigo” e a hipótese da interação farmacológica. Outro dado a ser mencionado e a produção de reação cruzada com outros tipos de fármacos beta-lactâmicos. A farmácia clínica tem como objetivo realizar atividades educativas, que dão aos pacientes condições de melhor compreensão sobre sua enfermidade e do tratamento terapêutico, conferindo melhores resultados. Conclui-se que, o farmacêutico clínico é o responsável pela aplicação do cuidado farmacêutico, que objetiva a promoção a saúde, prevenindo e monitorando eventos adversos, intervindo e contribuindo na prescrição de medicamentos para a obtenção de resultados clínicos positivos, melhorando a qualidade de vida do paciente.

O tricoepitelioma é uma neoplasia cutânea do folículo piloso de baixa incidência na rotina clínica veterinária, acometendo principalmente cães com idade superior a cinco anos. Os fatores associados ao seu desenvolvimento permanecem desconhecidos. Na maioria dos casos, as regiões do tronco e membros dos cães são os locais de maior acometimento pela neoformação, podendo afetar outras regiões. O diagnóstico é estabelecido através da associação do histórico do paciente, achados do exame físico e resultado do exame histopatológico. A excisão cirúrgica completa da neoplasia com amplas margens de segurança é considerada o tratamento de eleição. O presente relato tem como objetivo descrever um caso de tricoepitelioma benigno em um cão da raça Golden Retriever de 8 anos de idade, atendido na Clínica Veterinária Universitária (CLIVET) da PUCPR, Campus Toledo, com histórico de presença de uma massa em região dorsolombar. Na avaliação clínica foi observado a presença de uma neoformação aderida ao subcutâneo em região dorsal próxima a lombar, de consistência macia, pedunculada, medindo 4 x 5 x 4,5 cm e parcialmente ulcerada na superfície. O paciente foi submetido a exames complementares de hemograma, bioquímica sérica e citologia por punção aspirativa por agulha fina (PAAF), no qual este último apresentou resultado inconclusivo. Dessa forma, o mesmo foi encaminhado para o procedimento cirúrgico para realização de nodulectomia. Fragmentos da neoformação foram submetidos a análise histopatológica, revelando o diagnóstico de tricoepitelioma benigno. Após recuperação anestésica e estabilidade do quadro cirúrgico, foi instituído alta médica. A escolha da técnica cirúrgica empregada neste caso, denominada nodulectomia, demonstrou-se eficaz até o presente momento, minimizando os riscos de complicações decorrentes da neoplasia.
