Rainfall, landforms, lithology or soil characteristics, and geological structures are geo-environment aspects that might be used to assess stability of the land in a disaster-prone area, e.g. in a case of study around the Lembang active fault zone of the western part of Bandung Basin, Indonesia.
In this study, such geo-environment aspects were weighted and scored constantly in five class of value and importance, due to its influence on the land stability. After this scoring method applied, firstly, a land capability of the research area in relation to disaster potential will be recognized and used to analyze its land stability.
According to such analyses, the study area can be divided into two zones of land stability, i.e. (i) moderate area which dominates the research area, and (ii) non-stable or unstable area near Lembang active fault zone. The dominant moderate and unstable area show that the fault zone has still widely affected the surroundings landscape and its physical characteristics. In fact, the current evaluation of existing landuse show that the development has been carried out intensively on these areas. It indicates that the development of the area is contituted as a high risk activity. Therefore, in this case, a good spatial planning or an environmental good governance must be applied appropriately in such disaster-prone area.

Published: November 2024

The soil bacterium Streptomyces rochei is well-known for its anti-bacterial/fungal defense activities. The Open Reading Frame-112 (ORF-112) gene resided in the large linear plasmid pSLA2-L, which encodes a hypothetical 218 amino acid protein of unknown function. In this work, we explored cellular functionality in Eukaryotic cells. The ORF-112 gene was synthesized by tagging GFP (Green fluorescent protein) tag at the N-terminal, then sub-cloned into the mammalian plasmid pMAX-GFP. The protein expression and cellular localisation of GFP-ORF-112 were monitored in COS-7 cell line, using a fluorescent microscope. We have observed a concentrated peri-nuclear aggregation of GFP-ORF-112. In contrast, the control GFP expression exhibited a uniform cytoplasmic/nuclear expression. Notably, the expression of GFP-ORF-112 resulted in significant distortion of overall cell morphology. In addition, we have observed the detachment of cells, cell-rounding and cell floating feature, which is commonly associated with abnormal cell stress. These observations suggest that the expression of GFP-ORF-112 induces cellular toxicity or instability in mammalian cells.

The aim of the current study was to determine the amounts of heavy metals and to illustrate the potential risk they posed to birds by measuring the bioaccumulate of cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) in cestode worms and the liver and kidney tissue of Columba livia (host) infected with Raillietina sp. Three hundred C. livia birds were gathered from an Al-Nassiriyah city local market. The birds were split into two groups: the healthy group and the group infected with Raillietina sp. The three genera of tapeworms that infected the 119 birds were Raillietina sp., Cotugina sp. and Apronia sp. with relative infection rates of 52.8%, 27.9% and 19.1% respectively. The Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (FAAS) was used to measure the amounts of heavy elements. In the summer, the quantity of cadmium in the liver tissues of infected birds was highest (0.60 μg/g) as dry weight, while in healthy birds, the highest value was observed in the autumn. When comparing cadmium with arsenic concentrations, the latter has lower bioaccumulation levels in infected birds. The highest concentration was found in intestinal tissues during the winter, reaching 0.0092 μg/g of dry weight. Similarly, high concentrations were found in liver tissue during the summer, amounting to 0.009 μg/g of dry weight.

Published: November 2024

Thyrotoxicosis is the clinical manifestation of excess thyroid hormone action at the tissue level due to inappropriate high circulating thyroid hormone concentrations. Hyperthyroidism, a subset of thyrotoxicosis, refers specifically to excess thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion by the thyroid gland. This study aims to show the difference between men and women affected with thyrotoxicity in different ages and the histological changes with hormonal evaluation. This study was done using 50 patients with hyperthyroidism (25 women and 25 men). Patients have been taken from Arrazzi private hospital and Al- Ramadi hospital. Hormonal testes (TSH, T3, T4) was collected and recorded. Information of patents like name, age and gender was recorded. The pathological samples of thyroidectomy were collected after operation and saved in 10% formalin for Histopathological studies. A significant (p< 0.05) increases in thyroid hormone (T3 and T 4) in women was observed as compared to men. Slides showed a diffuse area of hemorrhage and diffuse inter follicular lympho-neutrophilic infiltration was seen in the tissue. The results of the study reflected that the incidence of thyrotoxicity was more effective in women than men.
From personalization to institutionalization of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) at the United Nations.
Authors: Pouzoulet Marion
Published: November 2024

Through the past decade, United Nations (UN) agencies have developed various initiatives in favor of the promotion of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE): the creation of the UNTFSSE in 2013, the adoption of a resolution in the International Labor Conference in June 2022, the annual ILO Academy on SSE, etc. The SSE transnational networks, which are still trying to legitimate the SSE at the international level, often quote these activities as strong institutional support to the SSE. However, this emphasis raises questions about the actual place of SSE concerns in the UN system. The hypothesis here is that, despite the big announcements, SSE (and the few agents who promote it) occupy(s) a fringe position within the UN agencies. Based on a set of semi-directive interviews with UN agents, this paper provides an opportunity to understand why, despite the absence of a general guideline, SSE has made its way into the agenda of several UN agencies. The analysis assumes that, before being an institutional interest, this appetence for SSE is the result of the commitment of several UN staff. The underlying objective is also to understand whether the emergence of SSE within the UN agencies has produced 'innovations' and 'changes' in the institutions. All this research work is facilitated by the author’s position as a Ph.D. student with a CIFRE agreement. This is a French specificity that enables her, in parallel to her research activities, to be a mission officer for SSE International Forum, one of the major networks of SSE actors on an international scale. This position, therefore, facilitates her access to the field and to the agents interviewed, whom she meets regularly in the context of her employed activities. In addition to the interviews conducted, this paper is therefore based on participant observation and analysis of archive documents.
Designing Molecular and Two Dimensional Metalloporphyrin Catalysts for the Electrochemical CO2 Reduction Reaction
Authors: Uddin Amira , Crespo-Otero Rachel , Di Tommaso Devis
Published: November 2024

A computational investigation of the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2R) on metalloporphyrin (M-POR) catalysts, featuring varying metal centres (Ni, Fe, Cu, and Co), oxidation states, and anchoring ligands, was conducted using density functional theory calculations. The evaluation of the thermodynamic and electrochemical stability of the M-POR systems concluded that neutral systems are more stable than charged systems, with the doubly reduced systems being the most unstable. The reaction free energy profiles for CO2R to the C1 products CO and HCOOH were computed according to two possible mechanisms: coupled proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) and proton transfer – electron transfer (PT-ET). The PCET pathways was found to be by far the most favourable, leading to the preferential formation of HCOOH over CO. Among the catalysts, Fe-POR exhibited the best catalytic performance for CO/HCOOH formation. To evaluate competition with the competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), overpotentials of the CO2R and HER were compared for all systems. This comparison, along with the PCET analysis, revealed that most systems favour HCOOH production. The most promising M-PORs were then to generate models of two-dimensional (2D) carbonaceous frameworks, exploring their potential for CO2R, with 2D Fe-PORs being active towards C1 formation.

Ni(cod)(dq) (COD: 1,5-cyclooctadiene; DQ: duroquinone) with an appropriate bipyridine ligand is available for the dehalogenative polycondensation of dihaloarenes to afford -conjugated polymers. The reaction of 2,7-dibromo-9,9-di(n-hexylfluorene) with nickel complex composed of Ni(cod)(dq) and 4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine in DMF/toluene (1:4) proceeded at 120 °C for 72 h. Polyfluorene was obtained in 81% yield with Mn = 13000 (Mw/Mn = 2.0). Ni(cod)(dq) was found to be stored under an ambient atmosphere at room temperature and the use of which after several month vs. a freshly opened nickel complex resulted to afford the corresponding polymer in a comparable yield and molecular weight. Other dihal-oarenes such as fluorene with different alkyl chain structures, 1,4- and 1,3-dihalobenzenes, 5,5'-dibromo-2,2'-bithiophene, and 2,6-dibromo-cyclopentadithiophen also underwent the dehalogenative polymerization to afford the corresponding conjugated polymers in excellent yields with an appropriate degree of polymerization.
Math matters or maybe not: An astonishing independence between math and rate of learning in chemistry
Authors: Koedinger Kenneth R. , Blaser Mark , McLaughlin Elizabeth A. , Cheng Hui , Yaron David J.
Published: November 2024

Research spanning nearly a century has found that math plays an important role in the learning of chemistry. Here, we use a large dataset of student interactions with online courseware to investigate the details of this link between math and chemistry. The activities in the courseware are labeled against a list of knowledge components (KCs) covered by the content, and student interactions are tracked over a full semester of general chemistry at a range of institutions. Logistic regression is used to model student performance as a function of the number of opportunities a student has taken to engage with a particular KC. This regression analysis generates estimates of both the initial knowledge and the learning rate for each student and each KC. Consistent with results from other domains, the initial knowledge varies substantially across students, but the learning rate is nearly the same for all students. The role of math is investigated by labeling each KC with the level of math involved. The overwhelming result from regressions based on these labels is that only the initial knowledge varies strongly across students and across the level of math involved in a particular topic. The student learning rate is nearly independent of both the level of math involved in a KC and the prior mathematical preparation of an individual student. The observation that the primary challenge for students lies in initial knowledge, rather than learning rate, may have implications for course and curriculum design.

Published: November 2024

Combustion ion chromatography (CIC) has emerged as a highly valuable tool in the analysis of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in biological and environmental samples, to determine total fluorine content. The information from CIC complements results from targeted analysis using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and indicates the presence of many other organofluorine compounds that remain unaccounted for by the latter technique. However, the effect of different matrices and PFAS types on combustion efficiency has not been systematically evaluated, such as varying chain lengths and head groups, different combustion times, and different types of matrices. Comparison of PFAS with chain lengths of C4 to C12 using equal fluorine equivalents of 5.27 nmol (100 ng) demonstrated no significant differences in the CIC responses, indicating uniform combustion. Further, no significant differences in signal were observed between combustion times ranging from 7.5 to 15 min. However, fluorotelomer alcohols (FTOHs) exhibited losses due to volatility, which could be mitigated using activated carbon, improving intensities by 200-1400%. Variations in matrix exhibited no observable changes in PFAS combustion efficiency for all chain lengths in water, blood, and biosolid matrix. To validate further, CIC was applied in the analysis of real blood and biosolid samples to compare the total fluorine concentrations observed with the concentrations determined by LC-MS/MS. The results of this study highlight the strengths and limitations of CIC as an important complementary method for PFAS analysis for different matrices and provide guidance for optimizing conditions for specific applications and for proper interpretation of CIC results.
Greenhouse Gas Accounting Procedures in Low Carbon Fuel Policies Lead to Undervalued Benefits of Miscanthus-based Sustainable Aviation Fuel

Published: November 2024

Low carbon fuel policies such as the U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS), Canada Clean Fuel Regulations (CFR), and California Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS) are intended to reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from transportation. Cellulosic feedstocks, optimized biorefineries, and favorable farming locations can significantly reduce biofuel carbon intensity (CI). Despite the emergence of field-to-fuel GHG monitoring technologies that could verify such benefits, programmatic constraints in CI accounting procedures may limit fuel producers’ ability to capitalize on these opportunities. To elucidate the implications of this challenge, this work examines a miscanthus-to-sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) pathway (i) to demonstrate how program provisions drive estimates of biofuel CIs and (ii) to explore potential CI and financial benefits of spatially explicit life cycle assessment (LCA). In comparing policy-based vs. spatially explicit CI scores (estimated via DayCent and BioSTEAM) for SAF production from miscanthus via alcohol-to-jet (ATJ), programmatic CI accounting requirements underestimated GHG benefits in 60-99% of simulated scenarios. These underestimates result in policy-induced SAF price differentials of -1.19 [(-)3.46 to (-)0.23], -0.07 [(-)1.06 to (+)0.37], and -0.48 [(-)2.46 to (+)0.16] $·L-1 for the RFS, CFR, and LCFS, respectively. Ultimately, this work demonstrates the importance of LCA methodological specifications in low carbon fuel policies.
The The potential of words to become swearing: An ethno semantic study
Authors: Amilia Fitri , Astri Widyaruli Anggraeni  , Anita Fatimatul Laeli  , Kemal Edwar
Published: November 2024

This research aims to describe the potential of words as swear words through an ethno semantic study. This research differs from other swearing studies examining the form and meaning of swear words. This study presents the potential of words to become swear words. This research employs a phenomenological approach. Swear words are expressive words that convey emotions and are easily found in both oral and written forms, whether directly or on social media. The data collection technique for swear words is documentation. The steps in documentation include recording sentences that contain swear words and classifying them based on the characteristics of swear words. The analysis technique for swear words uses conceptual meaning analysis. Based on the classification of the data, the words are analyzed for their components of meaning, both lexically and in terms of meaning derived from cultural associations and societal thought. Thus, the findings reveal the potential of each lexical word to become a curse word using an ethno semantic approach. Through an ethno semantic study, two potentials exist for words to become swear words. First, conceptual meaning is added due to the speakers' ideas, thoughts, knowledge, and culture. Second, there is a loss of conceptual meaning in the form of functional components in the lexical meaning of a word.
Design of BIPA learning based on short story “Basa-Basi” for understanding the phenomenon of chit-chat in Indonesian society
Authors: Rudi Ekasiswanto  , Kurniawati Wira , Warouw Nicolas
Published: November 2024

Chit-chat is a socio-cultural phenomenon ethnographically embedded in Indonesian society's culture, also discursively presented in literary works, namely the short story "Basa-Basi" by Yohanes Prananto. This research aims to outline a BIPA learning design based on literary works to understand the phenomenon of chit-chat. Methodologically, this research uses the literature study, development, and retrospection. This research finds that literary works can be applied to listening-reading, speaking, writing, and Indonesian insight skills. The short story “Basa-Basi” is presented as reading material for students. It is classified as a simple literary work because the degree of structural complexity is not that high. So, it is considered appropriate for advanced students 1. In speaking skills, students are asked to express their ideas about the substance of the short story in general and specifically about the chit-chat. Through this short story, students receive Indonesian insights and cross-cultural comparisons. After that, students are asked to compare it with equivalent phenomena in their countries of origin. The results of this comparison are applied to narrative writing skills of 300-500 words. The procedure is derived from a pragmatic approach for BIPA teaching, which situates language learning within its context. Through literature-based BIPA learning, with the formulated approach, design, and procedures, this research underlines that the use of literary works enables learners to not only learn the language but also understand the socio-cultural phenomena within the community of the language speakers.

Planning literature education in schools based on literary ecology
Authors: Nori Anggraini  , Ariyana Ariyana
Published: November 2024

This study aims to describe how ecological values that emphasize environmental awareness can be incorporated into literature education in schools. This research is qualitative, using an ecocritical and collaborative approach. The results show that literature serves not only to entertain but also to educate and can be used to raise awareness among students by integrating ecological values into literature learning. The application of these values can be observed through the teaching of reading and writing literary works with themes about the current state of nature, the beauty of nature if undisturbed by human activity, how humans can protect the universe, and the consequences of environmental destruction for the survival of humanity and all it encompasses. This application can be implemented by adapting reading and writing materials to literary ecology within the Learning Objectives Flow, which will be developed in the Lesson Plan (RPP). It includes the use of learning resources aligned with the materials in the RPP, employing relevant learning media based on literature-based ecological reading and writing materials, and designing effective teaching methods suited to the material. By incorporating ecological values into literature education in schools, it is hoped that students will gain ecological awareness to contribute to saving the earth from further degradation.

Published: November 2024

Short story writing instruction in the Indonesian Language Education Study Program at the Faculty of Humanities, Unsoed, aims to help students develop ideas through writing and improve vocabulary mastery. However, students often struggle to generate ideas independently and frequently rely on content from other sources. Additionally, many students have limited vocabulary, which affects their confidence in their writing. The project-based learning model has proven effective when applied to various learning activities. Therefore, this study seeks to examine the effectiveness of project-based learning in short story writing instruction within the Indonesian Language Education Study Program at the Faculty of Humanities, Unsoed. The study employs a quasi-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design, with third-semester students from the program as the population. The third-semester students involved in the study totaled 24. Measurements were taken with a pre-test conducted before the intervention and a post-test after the intervention. The results showed an average pre-test score of 68.25 for short story writing. The average post-test score, after applying the project-based learning model, was 80.33. This represents an increase of 12.08 points following the use of the project-based learning model for short story writing. The use of this model was effective, as the average score improved after the intervention.

and are the principles of Te Tiriti O Waitangi considered in the education being offered, if so, how? The pragmatic approach to qualitative research involved sixteen coordinators and seventy-four educators providing semi-structured survey responses, which were thematically analysed as per Braun & Clarke's model. Following analysis, four prominent findings were suggested: At present, formal education in physical activity promotion among future mental healthcare professionals is lacking, and does not appear to be priority; Barriers to offering formal education in physical activity promotion include resource constraints, competing educational demands, and gaps in educator knowledge; Proposed solutions include standardisation across institutions and professions, offering educators evidence about population-specific benefits, and incorporating the Te Ao Māori perspective and cultural considerations in education regarding physical activity and Te Whare Tapa Whā emerged as the preferred framework within which to position physical activity when educating future mental healthcare professionals. Currently, future mental healthcare workers are not prepared for the workplace, with little knowledge of physical activity or how to promote it to clients/patients. Educators could offer a formal education in physical activity promotion across a variety of disciplines prior to employment as a mental healthcare worker.

Smartphone addiction has increasingly emerged as a significant concern among college students. This study aims to investigate the impact of self-esteem and self-control on smartphone addiction within this demographic. Adopting a survey design with a correlational approach, the study involved 130 students selected using convenience sampling. The researchers employed the Smartphone Addiction Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Self-Control Scale for data collection. Descriptive statistics were used to examine the variables, followed by hypothesis testing through simple and multiple regression analyses. The results indicate that both self-esteem and self-control negatively affect smartphone addiction, both independently and collectively. Specifically, higher levels of self-esteem and self-control are associated with lower levels of smartphone addiction among participants. This study provides a novel contribution by examining the combined effects of self-esteem and self-control, offering new insights into the roles of these psychological factors in predicting smartphone addiction among Indonesian university students. These findings have significant implications for addressing smartphone addiction through interventions that enhance self-esteem and self-control.

Published: November 2024

Carbon Dots exhibit exceptional size-dependent optical properties that can be adjusted through surface alterations, thus broadening their applicability across various domains. Furthermore, their facile synthesis, excellent dispersibility, solubility, hydrophilic characteristics, biocompatibility, environmental sustainability, cellular permeability, low toxicity, high photostability, and cost-effectiveness have garnered interest across a wide range of applications, from materials chemistry to nanotechnology.
Carbon Dots have long been utilized as growth enhancers by improving the photosynthesis process in agricultural systems. In this approach, the manufactured Carbon Dots of the specified size are distributed on the plant, where the leaf adsorbs the CDs onto its surface. Consequently, Carbon Dots enhance the absorption rate of sunlight and carbon dioxide. Consequently, the rate of photosynthesis escalates. Consequently, the crop's growth and yield may rise by 10%-20%. Moreover, Carbon Dots possess disease-resistant qualities that safeguard them against many ailments.
The substantial incorporation of Carbon Dots in plants significantly enhances seed germination, root development, leaf quantity, and enzymatic activity for the conversion of CO2 into carbohydrates via an accelerated rate of photosynthesis. Consequently, rice crop productivity rises by 14.8%. Furthermore, it possesses disease resistance that safeguards plants from damage. Moreover, Carbon Dots can transform detrimental UV light into photosynthetically active radiation, hence promoting enhanced plant growth. This study elucidates the physiological roles of carbon dots in crop growth and development, photosynthesis, and their uses in enhancing agriculture.
