Authors: Moiseev S. V. , Kuz’mina N. E. , Severinova E. Yu. , Simonova E. P. , Kosenko V. V.
Published: July 2023

Gentamicin sulfate is a broad-spectrum bactericidal aminoglycoside antibiotic produced by Micromonospora purpurea and used in clinical practice as an active substance containing a mixture of gentamicins C1 and C2. Gentamicin content is a standardised parameter controlled as part of a pharmaceutical product review. Currently, the quality control of the active substance gentamicin sulfate involves the use of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the indirect identification of the component composition by comparison with a reference standard and for its quantification by calibration against the reference standard.

The aim of the study was to develop a procedure for identifying and quantifying the components of the active substance gentamicin sulfate using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy that would not require reference standards.

Materials and methods. The authors studied a sample of the active substance gentamicin sulfate using an Agilent DD2 NMR spectrometer operating at 600 MHz to record NMR spectra and an Agilent 1200 HPLC system equipped with a multiple wavelength detector (MWD) to obtain chromatograms.

Results. Having determined the spectral properties of the C1, C1A, C2, C2A and C2B gentamicins comprising the active substance, the authors observed characteristic signals of the same type that corresponded to each of the gentamicins and did not overlap with other signals in the 1H and 13C spectra. These characteristic signals provided spectral markers indicative of the gentamicins of interest in the sample, with normalised integrated intensities equal to the mole fractions of the analytes. The authors compared NMR and HPLC measurements of the active substance composition.

Conclusions. The authors developed a procedure for identifying and quantifying the constituents of the active substance gentamicin sulfate by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, which requires less effort than HPLC procedures and no reference standards for the intended applications.

Published: July 2023

Biyoetanol üretiminde mevcut hammaddelere, mikroorganizmalara ve yöntemlere alternatiflerin araştırılması önem gerekmektedir. Bu amaçla bu çalışma ile etanol üreticisi Escherichia coli FBR5 ve bu suşun Vitreoscilla hemoglobini (VHb) eksprese eden türevi olan TS4 suşlarının fermentasyon ortamı olarak malt özütü (MEM) ve maltoz-glukoz (MGM) besiyerlerinin kullanılması ile biyoetanol eldesinde etkinliği araştırılmıştır. Ayrıca çeşitli mikrobiyal metabolitlerin üretiminde verimi arttırdığı bilinen aljinat aracılı hücre immobilizasyonunun bu bakterilerin biyoetanol üretkenliklerine etkisi değerlendirilmiştir. VHb ekspresyonu ve immobilizasyonun birlikte kullanımının MEM besiyerinde 72 saat sonunda E. coli TS4 suşunun etanol üretimini (23.67 g L-1) FBR5 suşu ile elde edilenden %58’e varan oranlarda arttırdığı belirlenmiştir. Böylece VHb ekspresyonunun ve hücre immobilizasyonunun malt özütü gibi bir kaynaktan biyoetanol üretimini arttırmada etkin bir strateji olduğunu belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, arpa malt özütünün biyoetanol üretiminde potansiyel alternatif bir karbon kaynağı olabileceği görülmüştür. Sonuç olarak bakteriyel hemoglobin eksprese eden E. coli suşunun immobilize formdaki hücrelerinin arpa malt özütünden etanol üretimini arttırmada ümit verici bir yaklaşım olabileceği belirlenmiştir.

Published: July 2023

The illusory experience of self-motion known as vection, is a multisensory phenomenon relevant to self-motion processes. While some studies have shown that neck muscle vibrations can improve self-motion parameter estimation, the influence on vection remains unknown. Further, few studies measured cybersickness (CS), presence, and vection concurrently and have shown conflicting results. It was hypothesized that 1) neck vibrations would enhance vection and presence, and 2) CS to negatively relate to presence and vection, whereas presence and vection to positively relate to one another. Thirty-two participants were visually and audibly immersed in a virtual reality flight simulator and occasional neck muscle vibrations were presented. Vection onset and duration were reported through button presses. Turning angle estimations and ratings of vection quality, presence, and CS were obtained after completion of the flights. Results showed no influence of vibrations on turning angle estimation errors, but a medium positive effect of vibrations on vection quality was found. Presence and vection quality were positively related, and no strong association between CS and presence or vection was found. It is concluded that neck vibrations may enhance vection and presence, however, from the current study it is unclear whether this is due to proprioceptive or tactile stimulation.
A practical primer on the use of inverted items in psychometric self-report scales
Authors: Blötner Christian
Published: July 2023

In psychometric research, the decision of whether or not to include inverted items is highly disputed. Opponents argue that inverted items lower estimates of reliability of the total score, that regular and inverted items of a genuinely unidimensional construct constitute different factors rather than a common one, and, given lower correlations among items with different polarity, that inverted items appear to assess different constructs than the regular items. However, inverted items possess desirable effects if developed, employed, and modeled adequately (see Weijters & Baumgartner, 2012, 2022, for overviews of the discussion). In this study, I provide an overview of the pros and cons of items with different polarities, illustrate their interplays, differentiate allegedly negative effects of inverted items, and demonstrate how to handle items with different polarity in latent analyses. The study is guided by demonstrations in a simulated dataset and conducted with the programming language R in order to ensure a wide applicability among researchers. Furthermore, I provide practical recommendations in an attempt to foster a more differentiated understanding of the use and misuse of inverted items.

Background: Integration of digital technologies in schools raises the need for studentsto master technological, cognitive, and social digital literacy (DL) competencies.Objectives: Based on Hofstede's dimensional paradigm for defining culture, weaddress the cultural context and examine perceived and actual DL of Arabic-speakingminority students in Israel.Methods: First, 402 Arabic-speaking minority students from elementary Arabic-speaking schools and 232 students from middle schools reported their DL based onthe DL framework. Among them, 347 elementary and 205 middle school studentsperformed a battery of DL tasks.Findings and Conclusions: The findings revealed a very low level of DL performanceby minority students in both elementary and middle schools. The highest performance score was in information literacy: M = 1.49 and M = 1.55 out of 5.00 for elementary and middle school students respectively. Despite the ubiquitous use of socialnetworks, the lowest score was obtained in social–emotional literacy—0.23 for bothelementary and middle school students. In contrast to performance, both elementaryand middle school minority students estimated their digital literacy competencies ashigh or very high. Among the elementary students, a weak correlation was foundbetween their DL perceptions and performance of the photo-visual, branching, andsocial–emotional literacies. Among the middle school students, the only significantcorrelation was found between perceptions and performance of reproduction literacy. The findings raise the need to improve the DL competencies of minority studentsand develop their metacognitive abilities. This helps to assess their DL more accurately, in order to ensure their successful functioning in digital environments. Theoretical and educational implications of the findings are discussed.KEYWORDSactual competencies, digital literacy, cultural differences, digital literacy, educational stagedifferences, minority school students, perceived digital literacy skills
Ontology-Driven Processing of Transdisciplinary Domain Knowledge

Published: July 2023

The monograph discusses certain aspects of modern real-world problems facing humanity, which are much more challenging than scientific ones. Modern science is unable to solve them in a fundamental way. Vernadsky’s noosphere thesis, in fact, appeals to the scientific worldview that needs to be built in a way that overcomes the interdisciplinary barriers and increases the effectiveness of interdisciplinary interaction and modern science overall. We are talking about the general transdisciplinary knowledge. In world practice, there is still no systematic methodology and a specific form of generally accepted valid scientific theory that would provide transdisciplinary knowledge. Non-linear interdisciplinary interaction is the standard of evolution of modern science. At the same time, a new transdisciplinary theory (domain of scientific research) is being de facto created and the process is repeated many times: from an individual or group of disciplines, through interdisciplinary interaction, in a direction that brings us closer to creating a holistic general scientific worldview.

Who Gave You Authority to Baptize?
Authors:   Simple Church Global Network, Adams Milton
Published: July 2023

"This paper will explore the age-old, yet still relevant question, “And who gave you authority to baptize?”(Mark 11:27-33; John 1:25). First, biblical authority will be examined regarding who is allowed to baptize. Second, the writings of Ellen G. White, as they relate to biblical authority for baptizing, will be considered. Third, a counter-argument will be discussed. And finally, two baptismal tracks within the current conventional Adventist church system will be compared. This paper will conclude with a missional way forward that is faithful to Scripture, sustainable, scalable, and missionally effective in light of current cultural trends."
Toward an Adventist Theology of Refugees
Authors:   Andrews University, Miller Nicholas , Quetz Janna ,   Lake Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists
Published: July 2023

"The Bible encourages God’s people to help immigrants, and does not leave it up to just the state, but says the people of God should personally help them. Whatever path is taken in the future it is important to keep in mind that Christ calls us brothers, and we too should call the sojourner within our gates brother. Immigration policy is complex, and there may be no clear guidance from God’s Word on parts of it. But whatever policies are arrived at, the Christian has a role to advocate for the creation and implementation of a humane and moral policy that respects the image of God in all people of whatever nationality, race, or religion."
God’s Call to Embrace the Stranger
Authors:   Andrews University, Sanchez Samia
Published: July 2023

"The refugee crisis is being used by God in his provision to bring millions of refugees into our communities, giving God’s people an opportunity to introduce them to the loving, caring God of the Bible. God wants to reach them as he wants to give them new hope and a new life, for now and eternity. In this God invites us to be his hand, his feet, and reflect his loving heart as we interact with these new arrivals in our cities and towns. Furthermore, in reaching out to them it just might be another way God seeks to save the church from a self-focused agenda and pushing the church back towards its biblical role—to be a light to the world."
Insider Movements Among Muslims: Reflections on Their History, Identity, and Theology
Authors:   Asbury Theological Seminary, Doss Richard
Published: July 2023

"The enormity of the task still facing Christian missions is almost incomprehensible. Nearly 4.1 billion people are still in need of the gospel (Johnstone 2014:65). In some ways, the task of reaching the unreached is most difficult among Muslims. With nearly 1.3 billion adherents, Islam represents a significant challenge to the spread of the gospel. Or does it? Given the complex nature of the relationship between Christianity and Islam, could it be that the inability of Christian missionaries to shed the social, cultural, and political trappings of the West and Christendom have limited the effectiveness of the gospel? Might the cleansing of the gospel of its cultural trapping result in the release of its power among Muslims? If this is to be done, the “leaven” of the gospel must be separated from the “lump” of dough that is culture (Whitehouse 2008:7). As the gospel has spread from its origins in Judea to the far corners of the world, it has repeatedly changed its cultural form and shape. Is it time for the gospel to once again change its form and shape (Walls1996:6)? Many who have spent time in missionary work among Muslims—who have sought to distinguish between the “leaven and the lump”—recognize the existence of what are called “insider movements” and promote them as viable contextualized models of Christian community. In this paper, I give an overview of the history of these insider movements, then describe paradigms for understanding the concept of identity as it relates to “insiders” before examining the theological lenses through which insider movements can be viewed. Finally, I will briefly address several lessons that can be learned from this overview of insider movements. I use the term “insider movement” generically to define the broad concept of someone coming to Jesus while remaining within their cultural, social, and communal context."
A Biblical Approach for an Inner Healing Discipleship Cycle for Migrants and Refugees
Authors:   Adventist International Institute of Advanced Studies, Cruz Diói
Published: July 2023

"Within the Adventist Church many immigrants struggle silently with the consequences of emotional pain, fear, failure, anxiety, stress, inadequate parenting, rejection, and abusive relationships. Many try to cope with the ongoing results of involvement in the occult or other false religions, and the effects of physical illness, accidents, and trauma continue to impact their lives. It is God’s desire that we prosper and be in good health (3 John 2) because he created us in his image. “For in Him we live, and move, and have our being” (Acts 17:28). Therefore, if we are to reflect his image we must experience inner healing and extend it to others, for “God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love, and of a sound mind” (2 Tim 1:7). Spiritual and emotional healing provides a deep sense of meaning and purpose and transforms our immigrant friends into an extension of God’s healing hands for the salvation of the lost, the last, and the least. This is the “whole” life God wants for His foreign children."
Overcoming Barriers to Effective Missions
Authors:   Adventist University of Africa, Onongha Kelvin
Published: July 2023

"Much today is known regarding the Great Commission of Christ to the church before his ascension for which every member is called to actively engage in missions until Christ’s Second Coming. The Greek word ethne, translated in English as “nation” is better understood as people groups (Matt 28:19). The challenge and responsibility of the Adventist Church, therefore, is to reach the diverse and numerous people groups proximal and distant, by employing all possible means and methods that God has provided for this task. The assignment undoubtedly may appear daunting, however, it still is “mission possible.” For this goal to be achieved the church, especially its leadership, needs to overcome certain barriers inhibiting effective mission. This paper seeks to highlight a few of those barriers; however, it is not exhaustive in scope due to certain understandable limitations. Its objective is to enlighten and arouse mission leadership concerning obstacles to be overcome in order for more effective mission to be conducted in all respective territories. It seeks to create awareness of the reality of the mission situation, the acknowledgment that there might be barriers occurring within our territories, and engender action plans to rectify the present scenario. Other literature may provide several different perspectives on this subject; however, from the present Adventist standpoint the focus is on five issues I consider crucial at this point in time. The five barriers to effective missions discussed in this paper include knowledge, timidity, identity, spiritual, and logistic barriers."

"This issue of the Journal of Adventist Mission Studies focuses on case studies of various attempts to communicate God’s message in understandable ways in a variety of cultural settings. One of the challenges facing the Seventh-day Adventist Church is that since it was founded and grew out of a North American environment most church practices, ceremonies, art, architecture, methods for presenting the gospel, appropriate dress, and many other areas of Adventist life are dominated by the American way of doing things."
Can I Get an “Amen”? Affirming the Contemporary Ghanaian Usage of Amen
Authors:   SPARK, Agana Agana-Nsiire
Published: July 2023

"Altogether then, the claim that amen as used in the instances we have discussed is inappropriate is found to lack firm biblical or etymological foundation. Neither does the suggestion that if it is a vestige of African worship culture then that provides a reasonable ground for thus condemning it. While it is recognized that amen is often babbled from mental laxity, it is suggested that the problem lies not in amen, as a word, but in the person, as a worshipper. Amen is a rich word, capable of communicating a spectrum of positive human intellectual and emotional responses to worship; a spectrum that fits squarely within the umbrella of acceptance 2018, vol. 14 no. 2 and assent. G. B. Funderburk (1976:127) is correct is assessing that amen is “far more meaningful than a stop or signing-off word by which a prayer, song or declaration is terminated. It carries the weight of approval, confirmation, and support for what is said or sung.” Therefore, amen does not need to be curtailed to a few formal, highly rehearsed schemes of worship. It should be embraced as the bona fide, effective, biblical expression of assent it can be in contemporary Christian worship."
Christian Versus Heathen Ways of Praying: A Look from the Age of Postmodernity
Authors:   Zaoksky Adventist University, Drumi Yuri
Published: July 2023

"In many respects, postmodernity resembles paganism, but certainly it does not totally overlap with it. People around us are searching, but they do not search for answers and explanations as much as they are searching for people who are living answers. If prayer is a metanarrative, then my life must be a metanarrative too. In this context, I find helpful the analogy drawn by Crossan between Paul’s metaphor of spiritual maturation and that of an individual Christian growing in prayer. Paul says, “When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things” (1 Cor 13:11). A Christian who wants to grow in prayer is a person “working more and more from prayers of requests (complaint and petition), through prayers of gratitude (thanksgiving or praise), and on to prayers of empowerment (participation and collaboration)— with God who is absolutely transcendent and immanent at the same time” (Crossan 2010:28)."
Case Study: How the Apostle John Contextualized
Authors:   Loma Linda University, Paulien Jon
Published: July 2023

"Three aspects of the Prologue and its background in the Gospel of John make it clear that in the Bible God meets people where they are. He inspires ordinary human beings to write in the language, culture, and concepts that would be familiar to their original readers. First, John made use, for example, of an early Christian hymn to express his exalted insights into the nature and character of Jesus Christ. Second, he also structured the Prologue in ways that would make logical sense to a Jewish reader. Third, he gave Jesus a title (the Word) that was far better known in the pagan Gentile world than such Jewish titles such as Messiah or Son of Man. By these strategies John, under inspiration, created a Prologue that would speak powerfully to every reader of his day, whether Christian, Jewish, or pagan. These three strategies will be examined in greater depth."
