Authors:   Department of Pharmacognosy, Lachoo Memorial College of Science & Technology, Jodhpur, Rajasthan, 342001, India, Asif Mohammad
Published: February 2022

Background: Efavirenz, a first line anti-retroviral drug has variable bioavailability owing to its limited aqueous solubility. Piperine, a bioavailability enhancer has been often used to enhance the bioavailability of many drugs. Objective: The present study was aimed to investigate the possibility of improving the bioavailability of efavirenz using piperine. Methods: Two doses of efavirenz 9.33 mg/kg and 28 mg/kg which corresponded to 200 and 600 mg/kg of human dose were selected. Single oral dose of efavirenz and piperine co administration was given to rabbit and at fixed time interval drug blood concentration was estimated by HPLC. Pharmacokinetic parameters of efavirenz and piperine co administration were determined. Results: Efavirenz 9.33 mg/kg co administration with piperine 20.8 mg/kg increased area under the curve significantly at p<0.01 and Cmax at p<0.05 compared to efavirenz control (9.33 mg/kg). The relative bioavailability of efavirenz and piperine co-administration was found to be 149.08%, i.e., higher than efavirenz control. T1/2 of piperine co-administration was also increased significantly at p<0.05 compared to efavirenz control. Tmax of piperine co-administration was found to be 0.5 h, followed by efavirenz control i.e., 1 h. Co-administration of efavirenz (28 mg/kg) with piperine (20.8 mg.kg) significantly increased AUC and Cmax at p<0.001 compared to efavirenz control (28 mg/kg). The relative bioavailability of Piperine co-administration was found to be 158.92%, higher than efavirenz control. There was significant increase in T1/2 of piperine co-administration at p<0.01 compared to efavirenz control. Tmax of piperine co-administration and efavirenz were found to be same i.e., 1 h. Conclusion: Based on the results it can be concluded that piperine co-administration significantly increases the oral exposure of efavirenz. Bioavailability of efavirenz with piperine was found to be higher than efavirenz control.
Certification Regimes in the Global Agro-Food System and the Transformation of the Nature-Society Relationship
Authors: Saidul Islam Md
Published: February 2022

Recent years have witnessed a proliferation of environmental certification regimes in the global agro-food system—a trend characterized as an example of the ecological modernization approach—which emerged largely because of the rise of consumer sovereignty and the neoliberal push for environmental and social “quality” in food production and processing. Based on a robust analysis of global aquaculture, the article argues that the environmental certification regimes privilege some actors, species, and cultures while marginalizing others. While the fundamental tenet of the ecological modernization approach is to shape capitalism by ecological principles, I argue instead that through environmental certification, ecology or nature itself is largely shaped, transformed and restructured to fit into and thereby serve neoliberal global governance and accumulation in a normalized manner. The example of certification regimes is therefore more like a “modernization of ecology” rather than ecological modernization.

Biometric portrait as one of the most important means of identifying requirements through strict definition of dimensional relationships, preservation of realistic information about all technical characteristics of the photographic image, so that all biometric values can be digitized and used in recognition. The great variety and accessibility of applications for digital processing of digital record of a photographic image has enabled a visually convincing display of a forged photograph that leaves a different impression on the viewer and transmits a different, that is, a forged message. Due to the need to prove the authenticity of the digital record of the photographic image, methods have been developed for the analysis of the record that can detect deviations from the real record even when there are no visual signs of processing the photographic image. Not all analysis techniques can detect certain methods of photo manipulation, so multiple digital photography detection and analysis techniques need to be applied. In order to prove its authenticity, the scientific paper deals with methods for analysis and detection of forgery of digital photography with respect to the digital record and the structure of JPEG format.

The article is devoted to the problems of marketing support for the process of studying consumer preferences on the market. It is proved that the study of consumer preferences involves the development of a system of marketing research of commodity markets and the determination which products the consumer prefers, the level of satisfaction with the product assortment on the market, how he chooses the place of purchase of the product, when he decides to buy the product, how the decision to re-purchase is made, on which characteristics he chooses the place and time of purchase of the product and so forth. It has been proven that the issue of ensuring the stability of relations with consumers (frequency of consumption, volume, ways, who is consumed), understanding the sensitivity of consumers to competitors’ brands require more detailed study. The purpose of the study is to develop a sequence of research of consumer preferences on the market of heating appliances on the basis of determining the frequency of consumption, modes of consumption, understanding the sensitivity of consumers to competitors’ brands. The study has demonstrated that in choosing an electric heater, buyers pay more attention to its technical characteristics and prefer to consult at the place of purchase. However, a significant number of users still choose online shopping, which means that enterprises should choose intermediaries which can sell in physical stores as well as online (online shopping is especially in demand in the period of the pandemic). One of the selection criteria for users of electric heaters has become the presence of additional auxiliary functions, such as shock protection, frost protection, protection against burns, child lock, thermostat, remote control, timer and warranty service. Enterprises need to improve their production, because this type of product is bought for long-term use, and therefore must meet all safety standards and be easy to use. The market of electric heaters in Ukraine is quite saturated with various brands, but not sufficiently developed in terms of advertising activities. In order to improve their market position, producers of electric heating appliances need to increase their advertising activity through various communication channels and media.

Personnel risks that are most common are analyzed and ways to avoid and minimize them are suggested. The boundary intervals with the distribution of risks by probability of occurrence and level of risk are singled out, and also actions for reduction of risks of the corresponding level are offered. The directions of development of personnel strategy of the enterprise for the purpose of avoidance of personnel risks are offered. The company’s staff is one of the most important resources of any activity, and at the same time is one of the main sources of risk. The presence of risks in the personnel management system has a negative impact on the results of financial and economic activities of the entity. Analysis and assessment of such risks is an important component of the organization, because the “human factor” has a significant impact on the functioning of the management system, the number and types of possible conflicts among staff, the level of corporate culture, enterprise image and trust. Risks associated with the activities of staff are fundamental in the functioning of the organization and its desire to develop and improve efficiency. Personnel risks are also the risk of losing qualified employees or reducing their performance due to reduced motivation. Thus, personnel risk management is becoming increasingly important with the development of a market economy.

In terms of harmonization of domestic legislation with the EU legal field, an important area of regulation is accounting, as an information base for the economic development of individual enterprises and economies, and the European region and the world economy as a whole, especially given the informatization and globalization of socio-economic processes. However, the lack of experience in generating non-financial reports, especially in medium-sized enterprises and financial institutions belonging to micro and small enterprises, and the non-regulated form of the report somewhat complicate the process, so the research of the structure and information content of the management report is relevant. The article examines the legal regulation of the report on management in Ukraine, the main areas of information coverage, depending on the scope of operation, size, and nature of capital formation. The list of basic information to be disclosed in the management report is determined for enterprises (except banks, budgetary institutions, micro-enterprises, and small enterprises), for joint-stock companies, for financial institutions with share capital, for banks and banks with share capital. The difference in the content of the management report of all these entities arises due to differences in the composition of users of information and their needs for it, to make management or other decisions. Enterprises that prepare financial statements by international reporting standards may prepare a management report by domestic law. Any form of management report permitted by IFRS Practice Statement 1 “Management Commentary” In general, the history of non-financial reporting has proven its financial effectiveness, but at the same time, there are some problems associated with its formation. First, due to the lack of a regulated form and high dynamism of the external environment, there is a problem of the content of the report, which would meet the needs of stakeholders and work on a positive image of the company. Secondly, there is the problem of verifying the management report and confirming its compliance with the financial statements of the enterprise, especially in the non-financial component. And, thirdly, another problem that arises from the second – is the tax consequences of publishing a management report, they can be both negative and positive. All these issues need further research and proposals to address them.

Indonesia merupakan negara yang amat kaya akan bahan alam yang penuh manfaat bagi kesehatan. Salah satu tanaman yang diketahui memiliki banyak manfaat adalah daun serai karena kandungan minyak atsiri di dalamnya. Diketahui bahwa salah satu bagiannya, yaitu bagian atas (daun) sering tidak terpakai dan menjadi limbah, padahal hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bagian tersebut tidak bersifat toksik dan mengandung anti oksidan tinggi, memiliki daya hambat berbagai mikroba dan jamur. Pelatihan pemanfaat limbah serai sebagai obat kumur dan hand sanitizer dilakukan pada 25 orang di Yayasan Adz Zikra Jakarta Timur yang terdiri dari anak yatim dan ibu-ibu janda untuk dapat meningkatkan perekonomian komunitas tersebut. Pelatihan secara langsung diberikan oleh 5 pemateri yang mencakup latar belakang pemilihan limbah serai, manfaat, teknis pembuatan obat kumur dan hand sanitizer, pengemasan, monitoring dan evaluasi produk serta tinjauan pemberdayaan ekonomi. Antusiasme peserta tampak sangat baik dan evaluasi hasil produk dari segi rasa,warna dan bau seluruhnya dapat diterima dengan baik. Rekomendasi tim untuk dapat meneruskan kegiatan pelatihan ini pada anggota lainnya agar dapat mewujudkan peluang usaha lokal mandiri dari komunitas.

The development of e-commerce in Indonesia rapidly grows along with the consumer preference for online shopping. This study aims to analyze people’s interest in adopting popular e-commerce mobile apps in Indonesia with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT 2) approach. Of the many e-commerce in Indonesia, only five popular e-commerce are the focus of this study. The quantitative method with the verification type was adopted. A survey was conducted and questionnaires were distributed online toward 400 respondents who are users of popular e-commerce in Indonesia. The collected data was analyzed using Partial Least Square (PLS). The findings show that performance expectations and promotion conditions have a significant effect on behavioral intentions, and habits and behavioral intentions have a significant effect on use behavior. The moderator variable of age has a significant effect on the relationship between habit and use behavior, while price value, hedonic motivation, and habit on behavioral intention are moderated by the age variable. Gender variable as the second moderator did not have a significant effect on all relationships. The results can be used by e-commerce as an evaluation and map out future marketing strategies.

Introduction: The lack of social communication is associated with the primary risk of proper brain functions. It is reported that crocin helps relieve this problem. The present study examined the protective effect of two doses of crocin on Long-term potentiation (LTP) of hippocampal cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) area as a cellular mechanism in rats exposed to chronic social isolated stress. Methods: Rats were assigned to the control, sham, isolation stress, and two stress groups (receiving 30 and 60 mg/kg crocin). Chronic isolation stress (CIS) was induced 6 h/d, and crocin was administrated for 21 days. The field excitatory postsynaptic potential (fEPSP) slope and amplitude were measured by input/output functions and LTP induction in the CA1 area of the hippocampus. Also, the corticosterone and glucose levels were assayed in the hippocampus and frontal cortex. Results: The slope and amplitude of fEPSP severity were impaired in both input/output and LTP responses in the CIS group. Crocin at a dose of 30 and particularly 60 mg/kg improved input/output and LTP responses in the CIS group. Also, the corticosterone levels significantly increased in the frontal cortex and especially the hippocampus. In contrast, only a high dose of crocin decreased hippocampal corticosterone levels in the CIS condition. Finally, the glucose levels did not change in the hippocampus and frontal cortex in all experimental groups. Conclusion: The chronic isolation stress impaired neural excitability and Long-term plasticity in the CA1 area due to elevated corticosterone in the hippocampus and probably the frontal cortex. The low and high doses of crocin improved excitability and Long-term plasticity in the chronic isolation stress group by only decreasing corticosterone levels in the hippocampus, but not the frontal cortex.
