Transformation of the Judiciary in Turkmenistan after 1991. Aspects of Development of Administrative Judiciary
Authors: Burenko Roman
Published: December 2021

The article examines the process of formation of the Turkmen judicial system after Turkmenistan declared independence in 1991. The stages of reforming and transformation of the judicial system in the Republic of Turkmenistan in different periods are studied: 1990–2000, 2001–2020. In addition, the structure of the judicial system of Turkmenistan, the system of courts of general jurisdiction (regional courts and local courts), the system of arbitration courts, judicial boards of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Turkmenistan (in civil cases, arbitration cases, administrative cases, criminal cases) is analyzed, and the judicial selfgovernment bodies of the Republic of Turkmenistan are also investigated: the National Conference of Judges, the Qualification Board of Judges, the Council of People’s Assessors at district courts. In addition, the norms of the Civil Procedure Code of the Republic of Turkmenistan, the Arbitration Procedure Code of the Republic of Turkmenistan and the Code of the Republic of Turkmenistan on Administrative Procedures on issues arising from administrative and public legal relations are analyzed. The article draws attention to the lack of functioning of the constitutional judicial system and the Constitutional Court in the Republic of Turkmenistan, as well as the need to establish constitutional control over normative acts of the legislative and executive branches of the republic in the country. It is proposed to establish administrative courts in Turkmenistan in all regional centres of the country and the capital of the republic, as well as to adopt the Code of Administrative Procedure of Turkmenistan in the country. The article draws attention to the fact that the creation or liquidation of arbitration, regional or local courts would be carried out not only on the basis of a Presidential Decree, but also on the basis of a proposal of the Supreme Court of the Republic of Turkmenistan with the consent of the Parliament of the Republic of Turkmenistan.
The aspects of dehumanization in the condition of hybrid war: on the example of attitudes the citizens of Ukraine to Russian soldiers – participants of the Russian-Ukrainian war
Authors: Skorokhod K.
Published: December 2021

The article examines the features of dehumanization of Russian soldiers participating in the Russian-Ukrainian war in the perception of different groups of the population. Dehumanization is seen as a mechanism for denying human characteristics to individuals or groups of people, helping to justify violence, which is a necessary attribute of war. Against the background of the long Russian-Ukrainian war, it was possible to predict that the citizens of Ukraine would have blatant dehumanization of the enemy. However, one of the features of the hybrid war and in particular the information component in it is the blurring and weak personification of the image of the enemy, which is often labeled as an invading state. The aim of the article was to find out whether and how the mechanism of dehumanization works in these conditions. Achieving the goal required a clear personification of the object of dehumanization. The Russian military was chosen as such as the direct participants in the conflict, representing the attacking state. A qualitative method of pseudo-experimental research and in-depth interviews were chosen to identify the level and form of dehumanization. The experimental group was made up of internally displaced persons from the East, who represented the category of the population most affected by the actions of the Russian military due to the destruction of their homes, the loss of relatives or friends, and so on. The reference group was formed of people who were not directly injured during the war. To analyze the dehumanization of the Russian military, a scale of dehumanization has been developed, with blatant dehumanization at one extreme and subtle unconscious dehumanization at the other. It turned out that both in the experimental and in the reference group there was almost no blatant dehumanization, which may be due to the peculiarities of hybrid warfare, in particular the blurring of ideas about how the war is fought and who the enemy is. Instead, subtle forms of dehumanization, such as robotization and heroism, prevailed, confirming the influence of propaganda, which is one of the most important components of hybrid warfare. At the same time, in both groups, after the intervention, there was a shift from subtle forms of dehumanization to more blatant.

The author has analyzed ranking indexes of the state in the period before and after active European integrational practices – in 2013 and in 2019. The indexes which, by their content, correspond to the principles which serve as a foundation for social and economical policy of the EU have been paid attention to. As a result, it has been concluded that the reputational progress of Ukraine is conditioned by European integration reforms, in particular, in the areas of entrepreneurship, economic rights and freedoms, information openness in relation to economics and public finances, creating conditions for citizens to manage their property and labor. The study highlights those aspects of the socio-economic plane that are sensitive to European integration processes: migration processes to increase labor, touristic and academic mobility. It has been stated the dual nature of the geographical reorientation of labor migration from Ukraine to the West in contrast to the Russian Federation, due to both the worsening of labor conditions and environmental safety in Russia and the simplification of employment procedures in the EU countries. It is emphasized that this layering of circumstances, in fact, made a choice on behalf of people and European integration in this case is a favorable condition, not a key reason. Four levels of European integration factor in the socio-economic development of Ukraine have been emphasized: adaptation of domestic legislation to the integration of principles and values of EU policy into Ukrainian practices; support and acceleration of systemic reforms, correlated with the European integration course by means of macro-financial assistance and loans; assistance in activation and reorientation of social mobility of Ukrainians to the European direction – within the framework of labor migration, academic mobility and touristic flows; improvement of Ukraine’s reputation indexes in world’s rankings.

This article focuses on the problem of using large single crystals of type Ib synthetic diamond in single crystal and drilling tools. According to the literature review for the use of large diamonds in drilling equipment relevant conditions. The is shown possible negative effects of the temperature load on the diamond single crystal. The is presented developed technique for estimating the static strength of large diamond single crystals. It has been shown that microcrystals in the form of octahedra and cubes are formed as a result of heat treatment on the surface of synthetic diamond single crystals. The results of studies of the strength of large single crystals of synthetic diamonds of millimeter size are shown. In contrast to the classical approach, when IIb crystals are used for the production of drilling equipment, we present Ib crystals because they are closer to natural diamond in terms of physical and mechanical properties. The static strength criterion was used to assess the strength. It has been shown that crystals with a size of 1000 ... 1100 μm have a higher value of static strength than crystals with a size of 1200 μm and larger.
Influence of longitudinal control magnetic field on efficiency of the arc process
Authors: Elsayed Khaled , Razmyshlyaev Aleksandr , Ahieieva Marina , Bilyk Oleksandr
Published: December 2021

Problematic. When surfacing and welding with the action of a longitudinal magnetic field (LMF), the productivity of melting of the electrode metal increases, it is possible to control the geometric dimensions of the cross-section of the surfaced beads and welds, the structure of the surfaced metal and welds is refined, the hardness increases, the strength and ductility of the weld metal increases, and the resistance of the welds hot cracking.

Research objective. Analyze the literature data on the effect of LMF on the efficiency of the arc surfacing process of worn-out surfaces of parts and structures, taking into account the magnetic properties of electrode wires and base metal to increase the efficiency of this process.

Realization technique. Experiments were performed on submerged-arc surfacing with Sv-08A wire with a diameter of 5 mm with the action of an alternating LMF. Investigated the effect of the LMF frequency on the depth of penetration of the base metal and the width of the surfaced beads.

The results of research. It has been established that at frequencies of the LMF within the range f = 5...50 Hz, the penetration depth is less, and the width of the bead is greater than in surfacing without the action of the LMF. In the future, it is necessary to carry out studies on the effect of LMF during surfacing with flux-cored wires and strips on the metal structure of the surfaced beads and their service characteristics.

Conclusions. It has been established that for grinding the structural components of the metal surfaced with the action of LMF, it is necessary to ensure effective mixing of the liquid metal in the weld pool, that is, along its entire length. In this case, it is necessary to ensure the optimal parameters of the control magnetic fields. There is no theory that would explain the mechanism of refinement of the weld structure during arc surfacing with the action of LMF, and the existing views on this mechanism are contradictory. The data presented in the literature refer to the process of arc surfacing and welding with solid wire, there are no data on surfacing using flux-cored wires and strip electrodes.

Resistance spot welding is a process with high productivity and high level of automation. This rises a number of tasks related to development of quality evaluation and process monitoring systems operating in real-time mode which would allow to detect non-compliant joints during the process run of shortly after it is finished. The more complex task is to make such system as much universal as possible, consisting of relatively simple equipment and with a possibility of full automation of evaluation process. Research was focused on electrical welding parameters which determine the thermal cycle of the welding process as well as the state of metal in the welding zone and its plasticity. Experiments were performed for work pieces with different pre-welding state of surface. Developed method also allows to monitor the state of working surfaces of electrodes and to detect splashes with a relatively high accuracy.

Published: December 2021

Research of objects with unilateral access is a promising area for the development of non-destructive testing systems. To create a real system and determine its optimal parameters, it is important to conduct preliminary computer simulations. The paper is devoted to creating a model of a non-destructive system based on backscattered X-rays in the Serpent Monte Carlo code. There are no known studies of the use of Serpent software to build such models. The purpose of the study was to confirm the possibility of detecting a defect, i.e., a material of a different density than the test object, which was placed in this object.
A model was created, the main components of which were the radiation source, the object under study, the defect, and the detector of backscattered radiation. Experiments were performed for several combinations of system parameters, in particular when changing the angle of illumination and the distance between the object and the detector. The energy of the radiation source used in the study was 100 keV. The test object of study was a steel plate, which contained a defect — a lead plate. Calculations were performed for six cases at illumination angles of 30 and 45 degrees (scattering angles of 120 and 135 degrees, respectively), and the distance between the object and the detector 1 and 5 cm. The detector was a plane that coincided with a NaI scintillation plate of 60 by 30 cm in size. It was conventionally divided into 1800 elements to detect the flux density of backscattered radiation.
A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the results met theoretical expectations. In particular, the Compton equation was fulfilled, which states that as the cosine of the scattering angle \theta increases, the energy of scattered radiation also increases. In the case of θ = 1200, the average flux density of backscattered radiation recorded by the detector was 1.1*10-3 units per square centimeter per second, and in the case of θ = 1350, this value was 7.9*10-4.
The results of the study can be used to build real non-destructive testing devices. These devices can be used in medicine, industry, and security systems. The model has some limitations. The radiation source in this model is monoenergetic, in contrast to classical X-ray systems, in which the radiation has a spectrum. Also, a defect is a plate of a large area, which is almost equal to the area of ​​the object under study. For practical use, the device must be capable to detect a defect many times smaller than the object under study, such as a void in the weld, a tumor in the human body, or smuggled substances. The model can be improved in the future.

Published: December 2021

This paper is devoted to in-detail demonstrationand description of the overall functionality and deailed processes in every component of quasi-z-source voltage inverter. Expressions for currents and voltages on all elements of the circuit in standard and "shoot-trough" modes are provided. These ratios demonstrate one of the main technological advantages of the quasi-z-source topology: which is the possibility of the voltage reduction on one of the capacitor that forms the quasi-z-circuitry that led to the overall size and weight reduction of the resulting device and additional reliability increase. Matlab calculations,that are provided in the practical part of the article,fully confirmed the theoretical dependencies. At the same time, obtained practical results of the simulation demonstrated the main advantage of the quasi-impedance topology - the ability to provide a continuous current of the input source without zero pauses. That is additionally confirmed by a graphical representation of transients and the spectrum of the output voltage of the inverter. As the second topic of the article, the problem of the control system operating principle selection was discussed. As it was determined in the process of the previous research and practical modeling of the quasi-z-source inverter, providing a switching of the inverter valves on the frequency that equal to the frequency of the desired output voltage, which for the most of the world’s electrical power systems is equal to 50-60 Hz, is leading to a size and mass increase of the quasi-z-source circuitry, according to its design ratios. Additionally, such component are either not represented in the modern electronic components lineup or providing sufficient energy losses that in some design cases could neglect the voltage boost effect of the quasi-z-source circuitry implementation. To overcome discovered limitations, several PWM control methods were suggested. All of them could be divided into two groups: classic and vector PWM methods. Classic methods are based on combination of the basic PWM modulation techniques that are widely used in conventional full-bridge invertors with the insertion of the “shoot-trough” state activation mode. A model of the control system for the classical approach is offered. It is shown that the method of simple control of the state of "breakdown" is based on the placement of time intervals of the inverter in the state of "breakdown" within the normal period of operation of the bridge inverter. The only difference between the models is the inclusion of an additional constant signal exceeding the amplitude of which the carrier leads to the activation of the “shoot-trough” state.In conclusion the discussion on topic of the classic control methods implementation in up-to-date designs and possibility of its combination with a different modern approaches aimed on a quasi-z-source topology parameters modification are provided.

The potential use of digital laboratories is constantly growing every year, as such a device allows you to conduct research in such fields as biology, physics, chemistry and other natural sciences. It is proved that the use of modern equipment increases the efficiency of laboratory classes in schools. Today, there are a large number of educational digital laboratories, which find many areas of use, from laboratory work at school to laboratories at universities. However, if you analyze these digital labs, you can see that they do not have a user-friendly interface and settings. The purpose of this work is to review existing solutions, as well as find solutions to create an improved version of digital training laboratories. The main disadvantage of existing solutions is the lack of data transfer via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, as well as connection to a computer or smartphone, which could significantly improve the process of working with such a device. One of the solutions to this problem is the creation of digital training laboratories based on the ESP-32 microcontroller. After analyzing the existing digital laboratories, we can conclude that this area needs improvement, as existing technologies allow to create much better devices in terms of ease of use and opportunities for educational purposes. Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are the main elements, the addition of which will significantly improve digital laboratories. One such solution is the ESP-32 microcontroller, as it includes these modules, and its technical characteristics allow you to create a device that will collect data simultaneously from many connected sensors. The creation of a digital laboratory with such characteristics will significantly improve the process of laboratory work in schools and universities, as well as allow more organized distance learning online, which will have a positive impact on the educational process in schools and universities.
Fault-tolerant control system for the formation of carbon products
Authors: Zhuchenko Liudmyla
Published: December 2021

The production of carbon products is largely resource- and energy-intensive. That is why increasing the efficiency of this production is an urgent scientific and practical task, especially in modern conditions of constant growth of energy costs. An effective way to solve this problem is to create a modern process control system, taking into account possible failures of system components.
A method for the synthesis of a fault-tolerant control system for the cyclic formation of carbon products has been developed, which takes into account control errors that are caused by malfunctions of controllers under conditions of unknown disturbances. According to the cyclic nature of the technological process under consideration, a control method with iterative learning was used in the synthesis of the control system. This method considers cyclic processes based on a two-dimensional model (2D model).
The proposed control algorithm ensures the convergence of the control process with the task both in time and in each work cycle in order to promote the required quality of control even in the event of unknown disturbances and errors in the performance of controllers. The synthesis of the control system is based on the solution of a system of linear matrix inequalities.
Based on the combination of a control method with iterative learning and a control method that takes into account failures in controllers, a method of constructing a fault-tolerant control system for the cyclic formation of carbon products has been synthesized to ensure acceptable operation of the control object in abnormal conditions.
The control system has been synthesized by solving a system of linear matrix inequalities with the MATLAB software.
In the future, it is necessary to consider optimal settings of the proposed control system and examine its effectiveness in comparison with conventional fault-tolerant systems for non-cyclic processes.

The paper presents the results of a study of catalysts for the conversion of carbon monoxide based on aerated concrete, modified with magnetite and chromium ferrite separately and in aggregate. It was found that at a consumption of 100 g of catalyst powder per 1 dm3 of a typical mixture for producing aerated concrete and obtaining blocks of modified aerated concrete according to the traditional technology, their efficiency is 70-85% at 400 °C and decreases to 9-13% at 200 °C. In terms of strength and physicochemical properties, aerated concrete samples differ little from standard ones, and in some cases even exceed them. The proposed method for fixing catalyst particles in blocks of aerated concrete makes it possible to build fundamentally new schemes for neutralizing carbon monoxide when placing modified blocks directly at the loading of electrode raw materials in furnaces. This greatly simplifies the conversion process and its control system.

Considerations and Challenges for Sex-Aware Drug Repurposing
Authors: Fisher Jennifer , Jones Emma , Flanary Victoria , Williams Avery , Ramsey Elizabeth , Lasseigne Brittany
Published: December 2021

Sex differences are essential factors in disease etiology and manifestation in many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegeneration (1). The biological influence of sex differences (including genomic, epigenetic, hormonal, immunological, and metabolic differences between males and females) and the lack of biomedical studies considering sex differences in their study design has led to several policies. For example, the National Institute of Health’s (NIH) sex as a biological variable (SABV) and Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER)) policies to motivate researchers to consider sex differences (2). However, drug repurposing, a promising alternative to traditional drug discovery by identifying novel uses for FDA-approved drugs, lacks sex-aware methods that can improve the identification of drugs that have sex-specific responses (1,3–5). Sex-aware drug repurposing methods either select drug candidates that are more efficacious in one sex or deprioritize drug candidates based on if they are predicted to cause a sex-bias adverse event (SBAE), unintended therapeutic effects that are more likely to occur in one sex. Computational drug repurposing methods are encouraging approaches to develop for sex-aware drug repurposing because they can prioritize sex-specific drug candidates or SBAEs at lower cost and time than traditional drug discovery. Sex-aware methods currently exist for clinical, genomic, and transcriptomic information (3,6,7). They have not expanded to other data types, such as DNA variation, which has been beneficial in other drug repurposing methods that do not consider sex (8). Additionally, some sex-aware methods suffer from poorer performance because a disproportionate number of male and female samples are available to train computational methods (3). However, there is development potential for several different categories (i.e., data mining, ligand binding predictions, molecular associations, and networks). Low-dimensional representations of molecular association and network approaches are also especially promising candidates for future sex-aware drug repurposing methodologies because they reduce the multiple hypothesis testing burden and capture sex-specific variation better than the other methods (9,10). Here we review how sex influences drug response, the current state of drug repurposing including with respect to sex-bias drug response, and how model organism study design choices influence drug repurposing validation.

An Empirical Analog Benchmarking Workflow to Improve Hydrocarbon Recovery
Authors: Sun Shaoqing , Pollitt David A.
Published: December 2021

Benchmarking the recovery factor and production performance of a given reservoir against applicable analogs is a key step in field development optimization and a prerequisite in understanding the necessary actions required to improve hydrocarbon recovery. Existing benchmarking methods are principally structured to solve specific problems in individual situations and, consequently, are difficult to apply widely and consistently. This study presents an alternative empirical analog benchmarking workflow that is based upon systematic analysis of more than 1,600 reservoirs from around the world. This workflow is designed for effective, practical, and repeatable application of analog analysis to all reservoir types, development scenarios, and production challenges. It comprises five key steps: (1) definition of problems and objectives; (2) parameterization of the target reservoir; (3) quantification of resource potential; (4) assessment of production performance; and (5) identification of best practices and lessons learned.

Problems of differing nature and for different objectives require different sets of analogs. This workflow advocates starting with a broad set of parameters to find a wide range of analogs for quantification of resource potential, followed by a narrowly defined set of parameters to find relevant analogs for assessment of production performance. During subsequent analysis of the chosen analogs, the focus is on isolating specific critical issues and identifying a smaller number of applicable analogs that more closely match the target reservoir with the aim to document both best practices and lessons learned.

This workflow aims to inform decisions by identifying the best-in-class performers and examining in detail what differentiates them. It has been successfully applied to improve hydrocarbon recovery for carbonate, clastic, and basement reservoirs globally. The case studies provided herein demonstrate that this workflow has real-world utility in the identification of upside recovery potential and specific actions that can be taken to optimize production and recovery.
Nonequilibrium steady states in the Floquet-Lindblad systems: van Vleck's high-frequency expansion approach
Authors: Ikeda Tatsuhiko , Chinzei Koki , Sato Masahiro
Published: December 2021

Nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs) in periodically driven
dissipative quantum systems are vital in Floquet engineering. We develop
a general theory for high-frequency drives with Lindblad-type
dissipation to characterize and analyze NESSs. This theory is based on
the high-frequency (HF) expansion with linear algebraic numerics and
without numerically solving the time evolution. Using this theory, we
show that NESSs can deviate from the Floquet-Gibbs state depending on
the dissipation type. We also show the validity and usefulness of the
HF-expansion approach in concrete models for a diamond nitrogen-vacancy
(NV) center, a kicked open XY spin chain with topological phase
transition under boundary dissipation, and the Heisenberg spin chain in
a circularly-polarized magnetic field under bulk dissipation. In
particular, for the isotropic Heisenberg chain, we propose the
dissipation-assisted terahertz (THz) inverse Faraday effect in quantum
magnets. Our theoretical framework applies to various time-periodic
Lindblad equations that are currently under active research.
Analysis technology of a bank’s competitive position in the deposit market
Authors: Tysiachna Yunna
Published: December 2021

The structurally balanced resource base of a bank determines its ability to achieve its goals and, as a result, its performance and has a decisive impact on the reproductive process in the economy by converting borrowed funds into investments. Despite a significant reduction in the number of banks over the past 10 years (from 175 to 73), the deposit market is a highly competitive environment. This necessitates the search for approaches to the formation of deposit resources that are adequate to modern conditions, aimed at their stabilization and sufficiency. The objective of the study is to develop a technology for analyzing a bank’s competitive position in the deposit market, which is the basis for choosing a strategy for managing the formation and use of the bank’s deposit resources. The technology of analysis of the bank’s competitive position in the deposit market consists of the following stages: building a system of indicators characterizing the formation and use of bank’s deposit resources, calculation and analysis of integrated taxonomic indicators of the formation and use of a bank’s deposit resources, developing the “formation of a bank’s deposit resources – use of a bank’s deposit resources” matrix, positioning of banks in this matrix, determining the strategies for the formation and use of a bank’s deposit resources, and making appropriate management decisions and their implementation. The proposed technology has been tested on the example of existing banks in Ukraine as of January 1, 2021. Its use allows determining the current competitive position of a bank in the deposit market and choosing a strategy for managing the formation and use of deposit resources from the proposed: preservation, activation, balancing, directed action, intensification, and aggressive strategy.

Employees, their knowledge, and skills are becoming an increasingly important factor in the performance and competitiveness of companies in the XXI century. Approaches to talent management vary around the world. The more technological the company, the more unique the technology of using human capital and the higher the level of employee stress. The aim of the study is to establish statistically significant differences in exclusive and inclusive approaches to talent management in Ukrainian IT companies. The study employed methods of psychodiagnostic and descriptive statistics. The research period is from January to June 2021. The total number of respondents is 150 employees from the TOP-50 largest IT companies in Ukraine as of 2020. The population of the empirical study included 70 men (46.7%) and 80 women (53.3%) aged 21 to 40 years. The results of empirical analysis show that, indeed, the degree of employee burden in IT companies is enormous. The study empirically confirmed and theoretically proved that there are statistically significant differences in exclusive and inclusive approaches to talent management. IT companies that use an exclusive approach show burnout rates at an average level (according to 38.5% of respondents), and talents are already working at the limit of their psycho-emotional resource capabilities.

Published: December 2021

The purpose of this research was to evaluate the potential of plant-immobilized bacterial cells synergism for enhanced remediation of polluted river water. The polluted river water sample was collected from Kalyani river, Uttarakhand, India and characterized by high concentration of COD (1010 mg/l), BOD (230 mg/l), NO3−-N (30 mg/l), PO43−-P (48.9 mg/l), and Pb (1.028 mg/l). This water sample was treated on a lab scale with immobilized bacterial cells and Epipremnum aureum in various treatment setups. The treatment system 3 using a combination of immobilized bacterial cells and Epipremnum aureum had the highest pollutant removal efficiency of all the treatment setups tested. At 96 hours, the total COD, BOD, NO3−-N, PO43−-P and Pb contents of polluted river water sample were reduced to 60 mg/l, 20 mg/l, 2.4 mg/l, 11.7 mg/l, and 0.065 mg/l, respectively. Based on the findings, it is possible to conclude that utilizing plant-immobilized bacterial cell synergism is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach for enhanced remediation and rejuvenation of polluted river water. Furthermore, a field-scale application of plant-immobilized bacterial cell synergism via floating wetland construction for on-site treatment of contaminated water on the Kalyani river is recommended.

Background:

The essential oils isolated from several medicinal plants have been reported
to possess anticancer activities. Both the essential oil and extracts of many Piper species (Piperaceae)
possess potential cytotoxic effects against cancer cell lines and are being used in traditional
systems of medicine for the treatment of cancer. There is a need to evaluate and validate the anticancer
properties of essential oils extracted from other wild species of Piper.

Objective:

The current research was undertaken to determine the chemical composition and investigate
the anti-proliferative activity of wild-growing Piper trioicum leaf essential oil. The selected
five major constituents were subjected to molecular docking to identify possible modes of binding
against serine/threonine-protein kinase (MST3) protein.

Methods:

The essential oil of leaf of P. trioicum was extracted by hydrodistillation method, and its
chemical composition was evaluated by GC-FID and GC-MS. The anti-proliferative activity of the
essential oil was evaluated by the MTT assay against normal (3T3-L1) and various cancer (HCT
116, HT-29, PC-3 and HepG2) cell lines. Molecular docking analysis was performed using the AutoDock
4.2 software. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of the major constituents
were determined using absorption, distribution, metabolization, excretion and toxicity (ADMET)
analysis.

Results:

The GC-MS analysis revealed the identification of 45 constituents with δ-cadinene (19.57
%), germacrene-D (8.54 %), β-caryophyllene (6.84 %), 1-epi-cubenol (4.83 %) and α-pinene (4.52
%) being predominant constituents in the leaf essential oil of P. trioicum. The highest cytotoxicity
of essential oil was observed against HT-29 cells (IC50 value of 33.14 μg/ml). 1-epi-cubenol and δ-
cadinene exhibited low binding energy values of -6.25 and -5.92 kcal/mol, respectively. For prediction
of in silico pharmacokinetic and drug-like properties of the major compounds, the ADMET
prediction tool was used, the results of which were observed to be within the ideal range.

Conclusion:

The present findings demonstrated that P. trioicum essential oil possesses significant anti-proliferative activity and could be effective against cancer treatment.
