Authors: Costa-Singh Tainara , Biitencourt Thiago Bergler , Jorge Neuza
Published: November 2023

O óleo da castanha-de-cutia (Couepia edulis) foi extraído por prensagem a frio e caracterizado físico-quimicamente por meio de métodos analíticos padrão para óleos e gorduras. Foram avaliados o teor de ácidos graxos livres, os índices de acidez, de peróxidos, de iodo, de refração e de saponificação e a matéria insaponificável. A estabilidade oxidativa foi determinada com o uso do equipamento Rancimat; o perfil de ácidos graxos, por cromatografia gasosa e por ressonância magnética nuclear de prótons (RMN-H1) por espectrometria. A análise da composição de tocoferóis foi realizada em cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência, e dos compostos fenólicos totais, por espectrofotometria UV-Vis. Por se tratar de óleo prensado a frio, os resultados dos índices de acidez e de peróxidos confirmaram a estabilidade das amostras prensadas, uma vez que o processo não interfere na qualidade do óleo. Quanto à composição química de ácidos graxos, evidenciaram-se maior percentual de ácidos graxos insaturados, aproximadamente 52,78%, e a presença de ácidos graxos conjugados. O óleo apresentou ainda relevante teor de compostos fenólicos totais, os quais constituem fonte viável de α- e γ-tocoferóis. Por ser fonte de compostos bioativos, há perspectivas de uso do óleo da castanha-de-cutia como matéria-prima para indústrias químicas e farmacêuticas.

Published: November 2023

No presente trabalho, foi procedida a produção de barras de cereais adicionadas de erva-mate, e as características físico-químicas e sensoriais foram avaliadas a fim de viabilizar uma nova alternativa de aproveitamento tecnológico dessa matéria-prima. Foram elaboradas quatro formulações de barras de cereais, adicionando-se 0%, 5%, 10% e 20% de erva-mate em pó do tipo chimarrão, as quais foram submetidas às análises físico-químicas para efetuar a determinação dos teores de umidade, cinzas, proteínas, lipídeos e carboidratos, e das características sensoriais de aceitação dos atributos referentes a aparência, sabor, textura, impressão global e intenção de compra. As barras de cereais adicionadas de 5% e 10% de erva-mate apresentaram índices de aceitabilidade de aproximadamente 70%. A formulação com 10% de erva-mate resultou em 9,13% de proteínas e 8,77% de lipídeos, cujos valores foram superiores e inferiores, respectivamente, aos dos detectados nas barras de cereais comercializadas na região. Esses produtos mais saudáveis, de maior valor nutricional e de menor teor de gordura atendem às exigências do atual mercado consumidor. Os resultados obtidos neste estudo comprovam a viabilidade de uso da erva-mate no desenvolvimento de novos produtos alimentícios.

Published: November 2023

A formulação do bolo de chocolate foi otimizada efetuando-se a substituição parcial da farinha de trigo por fécula de mandioca e farinha de albedo de laranja. A metodologia utilizada adotou um planejamento fatorial 23, com variáveis independentes – fécula de mandioca (X), açúcar (Y) e farinha de albedo da laranja (Z) – e variáveis dependentes para os atributos da análise sensorial – aparência, aroma, sabor, textura e impressão global. Os bolos foram avaliados sensorialmente por 50 provadores, por meio de teste de aceitação, e intenção de compra, utilizando-se escala hedônica. Os parâmetros de otimização foram definidos por planejamento fatorial e análise gráfica de superfície de resposta. Os dados obtidos quanto a preferência, intenção de compra e resultados físico-químicos das formulações otimizada, padrão e comercial foram submetidos a análise de variância, e as médias comparadas, pelo teste de Tukey (p < 0,05). Os bolos elaborados obtiveram avaliações médias para todos os atributos sensoriais, situadas na região positiva da escala. O produto otimizado foi constituído de 7,5% de farinha de albedo, 27,5% de fécula de mandioca e 110% de açúcar. A formulação otimizada de fécula de mandioca demonstrou características físico-químicas adequadas, com melhor e maior teor de fibras.

Published: November 2023

O trabalho teve como objetivo verificar a qualidade microbiológica do chocolate artesanal ao leite produzido e comercializado na região sul do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Foram pesquisadas a presença de Salmonella e as contagens de mesófilos aeróbicos, coliformes totais, coliformes termotolerantes, bolores e leveduras, Staphylococcus coagulase positiva e clostrídios sulfito-redutores em 40 amostras de chocolate artesanal ao leite obtidas em estabelecimentos comerciais da região de estudo. Treze (32,5%) amostras mostraram ser impróprias para o consumo humano. Dessas, 11 (27,5%) apresentaram contagens de bolores e leveduras acima dos limites estabelecidos, das quais 7 (17,5%) demonstraram apenas esse parâmetro fora dos padrões. O segundo parâmetro microbiológico mais frequente foi a contagem de coliformes totais, e em 5 amostras (12,5%) foram detectados valores acima dos aceitáveis. Apenas 1 amostra apresentou contagem de Staphylococcus coagulase positiva acima dos limites permitidos. Salmonella e clostrídios sulfito redutores não foram isolados das amostras analisadas. Esses resultados são indicativos de problemas de ordem higiênica, provavelmente relacionados a práticas inadequadas de fabricação ou ao não cumprimento de boas práticas de fabricação.

Published: November 2023

Neste estudo, foi avaliada a qualidade de produtos saneantes e antissépticos utilizados em hospitais da rede pública, por terem papel relevante como medida de controle e prevenção das infecções e doenças. O presente estudo, proveniente do Programa de Monitoramento do Município de São Paulo, avaliou 54 produtos, dos quais 47 contidos em embalagens originais lacradas e sete previamente diluídos nos hospitais. Vinte e seis amostras de detergentes e desinfetantes foram avaliadas quanto aos parâmetros microbiológicos, pH e teor de substância ativa; 25 antissépticos e três produtos esterilizantes foram analisados somente quanto ao teor de componente ativo. Cinco das amostras de desinfetantes em embalagem original estavam em desacordo com a legislação vigente, no que diz respeito ao componente ativo, à ausência de atividade antimicrobiana e/ou rotulagem. Sobre as amostras de desinfetantes diluídos nos hospitais, 60% não apresentaram atividade antimicrobiana. Das 13 amostras de detergentes, 30,8% demonstraram contaminação microbiana, e em três amostras foi detectada a ocorrência de Pseudomonas, o que indica a necessidade de melhoria nos processos de fabricação. Os produtos antissépticos e detergentes foram considerados satisfatórios em relação aos demais ensaios realizados. Ressalta-se, ainda, a escassez de publicações de dados de programas de monitoramento de produtos dessas categorias no nosso país.

Devem-se considerar os aspectos que fogem ao controle do processador, como por exemplo, o autosserviço, a fim de garantir a inocuidade dos alimentos. Neste estudo foram avaliadas as atitudes de risco dos consumidores que podem favorecer a contaminação dos alimentos durante o autosserviço. Foram avaliadas treze atitudes de risco que possam contaminar os alimentos na distribuição e exposição destes em um restaurante da cidade de Santa Maria (RS). A análise foi feita durante cinco dias consecutivos no mês de setembro de 2011. A avaliação foi efetuada a cada cinco indivíduos no período de maior movimentação do restaurante (das 11h às 14h), totalizando 657 observações. De acordo com os resultados obtidos, notou-se que a atitude de risco mais cometida pelos consumidores foi falar sobre as preparações alimentícias expostas (51%). Em 46% dos casos, os consumidores utilizavam os utensílios de uma preparação em outra já servida no seu prato. Concluiu-se que há probabilidade de ocorrência de contaminação alimentar causada pelos próprios consumidores em restaurantes de autosserviço.

TEMPORARY NON-PERFORMANCE AND TERMINATION OF THE POWERS OF THE PRIVATE PRACTITIONING NOTARY: FATE OF LABOR RELATIONSHIPS
Authors:   Saratov State Law Academy, ABALDUEV V.
Published: November 2023

From the standpoint of labor law, the position of a private notary as an employer is considered in cases of suspension of his notarial powers, during a period of temporary replacement, or in the absence for other reasons. It is noted that the temporary restriction of the rights of a notary to perform notarial acts does not affect his legal status in relations regulated by the norms of labor legislation and other branches of law. It is proposed to specify in the Fundamentals of the legislation of the Russian Federation on the notary the powers of the employer during the period of temporary suspension of notarial activities. The grounds for termination of a notary’s powers and related issues of termination of employment relations are also investigated.

Compensation strategies for gait impairment in Parkinson’s disease. Towards personalized gait rehabilitation
Authors: Tosserams Anouk
Published: November 2023

Gait impairments are among the most disabling motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). As the disease progresses, gait impairment generally becomes increasingly more severe, markedly affecting a person's mobility, independence and quality of life. While dopaminergic therapy may have some beneficial effects on gait speed and step length, pharmacological treatment alone rarely suffices to adequately ameliorate gait quality. Therefore, complementary non-pharmacological interventions form an essential part of the management of gait impairment in PD. This dissertation focusses on one specific element within the broad spectrum of non-pharmacological interventions for gait impairment in PD: the application of compensation strategies. The term compensation strategies refers to a wide variety of “detours” that are typically spontaneously invented by persons with PD to improve their gait. Examples of such strategies include: walking while rhythmically counting, while bouncing a ball, or while mimicking the gait pattern of another person. The present work includes reports on the objectively measured (lab-based) efficacy, as well as the subjective (patient-rated) efficacy of compensation strategies in improving gait in PD. It touches upon the suspected mechanisms underlying the various forms of compensation and provides concrete recommendations for clinical practice based on the presented evidence.

Վերջին տարիների ուսումնասիրությունները ցույց են տալիս, որ Արգիշտիխինիլի քաղաքի արևմտյան ամրոցի դամբարանադաշտը տարածվել է դեպի հյուսիս- արևմուտք՝ ընդգրկելով այժմյան Նոր Արմավիր գյուղի բնակելի տարածքները ։ Այստեղից հայտնաբերված կարասային թաղումներն ամենաշատն են եղած դամբարանների մեջ։ Studies carried out in recent years have shown that the necropolis of the western fortress of Argishtikhinili City extended to the northwest, including the residential areas of the present-day village of Nor Armavir. The pot burials found here are the largest in number among the existing tombs. The excavations held from 1962 till 2022 revealed that the pot burials of the Hill of David and the nearby areas date from two periods: 8th to 6th centuries BC, and from the early Armenian transitional period (2nd half of the 6th century BC) to the Hellenistic Age. Исследования последних лет показывают, что могильник западной крепости Аргиштихинили (холм Давида) простирается в северо- западном направлении от крепости, на населенных участках села Нор Армавир. Обнаруженные здесь карасные захоронения составляют наибольшую часть исследованных погребений. Раскопки 1964-2022 гг. выявили, что карасные захоронения, обнаруженные на холме Давида и окрестностях, разделяются на две хронологические группы: 1. карасные захоронения, датируемые VIII-VI вв. до н.э; 2. позднеурартские и раннеармянские захоронения, такие как карасные погребения детей в третьем раскопе в «саду Левона».

The architectural material as palimpsest. Monitoring climatic changes within the built environment
Authors:   “Ion Mincu” University of Architecture and Urbanism, Bucharest, RO, Trif Stephany-Emma
Published: November 2023

The Earth is a dynamic system, yet our understanding of this system relies on fixed, human-imposed lines, measurements and boundaries, which obscure those dynamics. The tension between the fixed nature of our modes of representation and the dynamic nature of the Earth’s system becomes increasingly apparent in the context of accelerating global environmental changes. Rising temperatures on the Earth’s surface are changing climatic zones around the planet and creating complex shifts in ecosystems. Landscapes are changing as sea levels rise, deserts increase and the tropics expand, urging people to improve their ways of representing, monitoring and caring for their surroundings. As such, memory, empathy and experience are central elements of this paper as it discusses environmental changes through the lens of the architectural material. The challenge of translating between abstract global images and the human experience inhibits individual, empathetic awareness of the planetary scale of climate change. As such, this paper aims to identify ways in which the architectural material can help bridge the gap between individual and planetary scales of change while mediating cultural and environmental loss. Through an interdisciplinary approach that draws from academic fields such as geography, earth sciences, architecture and environmental studies, this paper examines the historical development of fixed representations of the Earth’s systems to propose enhanced ways of viewing, understanding and representing the planet within change. Exploring the architectural material as a palimpsest, the following paper investigates the potential of materials to become sensors as they employ their ability to record aspects of environmental change, storing them as memories. As such, the scientific and emotional data accumulated through the architectural material could enable both emotional and physical resilience, and, through its representation, facilitate an empathetic awareness of the environmental crisis humanity currently faces.

Comparing Different Replacement Policies for Logging Machines in Brazil
Authors: Diniz Carlos , Timofeiczyk Junior Romano , Garzel Joao Carlos , Robert Renato Cesar Gonçalves , Sessions John , da Silva Lopes Eduardo
Published: November 2023

A dynamic programing algorithm to identify schedules that minimize the discounted cost (DC) of logging machines over a planning horizon including gains from technological progress was used. The identified schedules were also compared with three alternative replacement policies derived from the literature and Brazilian forestry companies. The case study used a harvester and a forwarder and a 100-year planning horizon, where the maximum replacement limit was 8 years. To apply the dynamic programing algorithm, it was necessary to generate lists from cash flows, which incorporated the possible replacement combinations of a series of machines according to the length of the planning horizon and the maximum replacement limit. The lists were formed by three descriptors: predecessor node (moment of purchase of the machine), future node (point of sale for the acquisition of a new machine), and arc value (DC information, the mean production cost and mean production). The results show that the DC identified for the series of harvester replacements was higher compared to the forwarder. It was also identified that the harvester's economic life is shorter, and with technological progress, there was a reduction in the economic life of both machines. Technological progress was also responsible for reducing the average production cost and increasing the average production of machines. When comparing the alternative schedules (AS), it was found that, although AS had a higher DC value and mean production costs, there was very little difference between them. In the harvester's case, AS01 had the highest DC value ($4.36 million). By choosing it, the decision maker would bear a DC boost of $54,000, while AS02 and AS03 would trigger an increase of $43,000 and $32,000, respectively. For the forwarder, the schedule with the highest DC value was AS03 ($3.69 million). The postponement of the replacements made in alternative schedule 01 and alternative schedule 02 resulted in an increase in the DC of $5000, while the anticipation of the replacements made in the alternative schedule 03 resulted in an increase of $48,000. The aspect that stood out the most, in relation to the results presented, was the small variation that the alternative schedules presented in relation to the schedules obtained using the dynamic programing algorithm. With a DC variation of less than 1.4%, the results lead us to conclude that the decision maker will not suffer much harm in choosing any of the alternative schedules tested.

A análise revela que muitos estudantes com boa proficiência direcionam suas ações cognitivas para alternativas incorretas, acarretando possíveis dificuldades em conceitos fundamentais da Química, como nomenclatura de compostos e cálculo de massas molares. Ao utilizar parâmetros do TRI e referências teóricas sobre aprendizagem de cálculos químicos, este estudo fornece uma compreensão aprofundada das lacunas no conhecimento dos estudantes. Esses dados não apenas corroboram a literatura publicada, mas também oferecem indicadores valiosos para transformar erros dos estudantes em conhecimento pedagógico, auxiliando educadores a abordar eficazmente tais desafios na sala de aula.

A cidadania define a pertença dos indivíduos à sociedade em que estão inseridos. Entende-se que a cidadania hoje deve ser perpassada por duas noções centrais, a ética e a sustentabilidade, sendo estes conceitos complementares. A cidadania ganhará maior expressão no momento que o sujeito deixa o contexto familiar para se inserir na sociedade através do voto e da atuação profissional. Por isso, a análise do perfil dos jovens na emergência do egresso do ensino médio é representativa. Assim, esta análise visa caracterizar experiências de cidadania em uma cidade do meio oeste de Santa Catarina, vivenciadas por estudantes do terceiro ano do Ensino Médio, na perspectiva da problemática da sustentabilidade. Metodologicamente, a pesquisa é quali-quantitativa, pois mescla técnicas mistas. Conclui-se que muitos jovens têm consciência sobre a necessidade de uma vida ética e sustentável, mas os hábitos ainda, impedem uma ação comprometida com a sociedade expressa por esses conceitos.

The present study aimed to identify through a range of morphophysiological aspects the effect of water availability in the establishment and growth of Helianthus annuus plants. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse in the State University of Goiás, Ipameri. It was set up in completely randomized design with six treatments (0%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 200% and 400% of evapotranspiration) and six replications of BRS 323 cultivar in 15 liters pots with 12 kg of substrate containing soil, sand and manure in 3:1:1 proportion respectively. The treatments were established 18 days after the seedling emergence and the analysis were performed on 25nd day. Thus, the H. annuus plants tolerate drought due to the high stomatal sensitivity wich limits the loss of water to the atmosphere and by the increase of root system depth. Also, it stands out that H. annuus plants did not show stress symptoms in the excesso of water, because the high transpiration rate removed to atmosphere the amount of excess of water from irrigation.

The objective of the present study was to identify the effect of water availability on corn plant growth. The study was carried out in greenhouse covered with transparent plastic with Sombrite material sides that intercepted this 50% solar radiation located at the State University of Goiás, Brazil, South-East Campus Ipameri. Four corn seeds were planted in each polyethylene pot containing 8 kg substrate consisting of soil, sand and manure at the proportion of 3:1:1, respectively. A completely randomized design was used with six treatments and six replications. After emergence and initial development, the plants were irrigated with volumes of water corresponding to 0%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 200% and 400% of the daily evapotranspiration at 23 days after emergence. At 31 days after emergence the following variables were analyzed: number of leaves, plant height, stem diameter, total biomass, root mass ratio, stem mass ratio, Leaf mass ratio, photosynthetic pigments, relative water content, transpiration rate and chlorophyll a fluorescence. Water shortage and flooding inhibited growth in the corn plants and thus damaged the crop establishment, but at different intensities, because water shortage was much more restrictive to plant development than flooding. Furthermore, it is emphasized that the corn plants are isoydric because they anticipate water shortage through efficient stomata sensitivity that controls water loss by transpiration.

Purpose: Ensuring quality in accreditation standards and process for higher institutions is highly imperative in order to produce qualitative students and staff (national and international), and to securing the recognition of qualifications that institutions are awarding. The objective of this study was to investigates the similarities and differences in the accreditation process in Nigeria, Egypt, Malawi and Japan.
 
Methods: The study was based on qualitative approach. The study adopted the historical method of data collection. This study being descriptive, as well as historical, relied essentially on secondary information sources gathered by the researchers via many books, articles, journal periodicals, internet materials, and notable books. Data were analyzed using a narrative method that leaned more on the interpretivist approach.
 
Results: The study showed that accreditation process in the selected countries has some similarities in process and standards such as setting of minimum standards, self-study, selection and training of reviewers, site visit, reporting, final decision, disclosure, academic matter (curriculum), students, staffing, facilities and funding. Also, there exist some differences in the process and standards across the countries of study in term of preliminary/preassessment visit before actual site visit, factual error checking, virtual visit, third party agencies, verification of external auditor’s report, etc.
 
Conclusion: The study assesses the university accreditation systems in Nigeria, Egypt, Malawi, and Japan. Accrediting agencies need to focus on future accreditation in term of digitalisation of accreditation process, emergence of non-traditional providers of higher education, high demand for competency-based university education/learning, high rate of global competitiveness, and elimination of academic and accreditation corruption in the system.

The idea of the garden – city in Polish urban planning thought at the beginningof the 20th century
Authors: Tomczak Anna Aneta , Szoszkiewicz Julia
Published: November 2023

The term "garden city" is a response to the uncontrolled development of 19th – century cities. It is an idea that combines urban conveniences with the advantages of rural life. In Polish urban planning at the beginning of the 20th century, it took the form of garden cities, green neighborhoods, or cities designed for recreation. Garden cities hada particular form, and their construction principles were clearly defined by the "planner – urbanist" Ebenezer Howard. Not all of these principles were applied in Polish solutions, and only some of them replicated British solutions, yet these cities were already called garden cities at the time of their creation. The degree of implementation of the original principles in Polish urban solutions was examined using selected examples implemented in the interwar period.
