Acoustic Territories
Authors: Labelle Brandon 
Published: October 2019

The revised edition of Acoustic Territories: Sound Culture and Everyday Life offers an expansive reading of auditory life. It provides a careful consideration of the performative dynamics inherent to sounding and listening, and discusses how sound studies may illuminate understandings of contemporary society. Combining research on urbanism, popular culture, street life and sonic technologies, Acoustic Territories opens up a range of critical perspectives--it challenges debates surrounding noise pollution and charts an "acoustic politics of space" by engaging auditory experience as found within particular cultural histories and related ideologies. Brandon LaBelle traces sound culture through a topographic structure: from underground territories to the home, and further, into the rhythms and vibrations of streets and neighborhoods, and finally to the sky itself as an arena of transmitted imaginaries.
The new edition includes an additional "global territory" of the relational, positioning acoustics as a range of everyday practices that rework dominant tonalities. Questions of orientation and emplacement are critically raised, reframing listening as multi-modal and intrinsic to resistant socialities and what the author terms "acts of compositioning." The book is fully updated to include new relevant research and references surfacing since 2010, as well as a new preface to the second edition. Acoustic Territories continues to uncover the embedded tensions and potentialities inherent to sound as it exists in the everyday spaces around us.

Akurasi evaluasi struktur perkerasan lentur menjadi penting karena keputusan strategi pemeliharaan perkerasan merupakan bagian integral sistem manajemen perkerasan berdasarkan evaluasi tersebut. Lendutan FWD merupakan salah satu cara yang ditawarkan oleh Pd T-05-2005-B (2005). Lendutan dipengaruhi temperatur perkerasan dan beban yang bekerja pada saat pengujian. Pedoman menggunakan temperatur 35oC dan beban 4.08 ton sebagai temperatur dan beban standar. Dari hasil analisis, koreksi lendutan akibat beban tidak standar dapat digunakan dan menghasilkan solusi yang akurat. Akan tetapi, koreksi lendutan akibat pengukuran pada temperatur tidak standar akan menghasilkan kesalahan lendutan, sehingga juga pada prediksi umur sisa. Kesalahan prediksi umur sisa akan semakin besar jika pengujian lendutan dilakukan semakin jauh dari temperatur standar. Koreksi lendutan disarankan diubah dengan Persamaan 19, yang akan memberikan prediksi umur sisa lebih akurat seperti tampak pada Tabel 2. Optimal pavement maintenance based on evaluation of pavement structure "“ makes the accuracy to the evaluation is very important - as an integral pavement management system, FWD deflection is one alternatif used in Pd T-05- 2005-B (2005) for pavement structure evaluation. Deflection measured depends on pavement temperature as well as the load applied on FWD. The Guide (Pd T-05 2005-B) specified 35oC pavement temperature, and 4.08 ton of FWD loading as standard testing. Correction factors are provided when deflection test condition deviates than the standard. From this research, correction factor provided for non standard load is perfectly accurate. However, the correction factor provided for non standard pavement temperature is inaccurete. Equation 19 is proposed as better correction factor.

Abstract
Background: In response to a need for accurate and reliable methods for food allergen regulatory compliance, a method for the detection and quantitation of whole egg, whole milk, peanut, and hazelnut in eight food matrices was developed and evaluated in a single-laboratory validation. The matrices include cookies, cookie dough, bread, breakfast cereal, salad dressing, ice cream, and red wine. Objective: The method was compared with Standard Method Performance Requirements (SMPR) 2016.002 established by the AOAC Stakeholder Panel on Strategic Food Analytical Methods. Methods: The method involves tryptic digestion of allergen proteins in food matrices incurred or spiked with allergen standards [reference materials (RMs), Standard RMs (SRMs), or in-house prepared standard] and uses labeled peptide internal standards. LC-tandem MS analysis of the signature tryptic peptides of the four allergens is performed using multiple reaction monitoring. Results: For 10 allergen/matrix combinations, the method demonstrated adequate sensitivity with a minimum quantitation limit of 3 mg/kg for whole egg and 10 mg/kg for milk, peanut, and hazelnut allergens. Repeatability precision across 3 days of analyses was &lt;17% with analytical range of 10–1000 mg/kg. Recovery from incurred and spiked matrix-matched standards varied from 60 to 118%. Conclusions: The method met the minimum performance requirements of SMPR 2016.002 for whole egg in cookies, bread, cookie dough, and salad dressing; whole milk in cookies and red wine; peanut in breakfast cereal; and hazelnut in cookies. Highlights: The ERP determined that the data presented met the SMPR and accordingly recommended the method to be granted First Action status. In September 2017, the Official Methods Board approved the method as First Action.

Optimization of Ultrasound-Mediated Drug Delivery for Treatment of Onychomycosis
Authors: Kline-Schoder Alina , Le Zung , Sweeney Liam , Zderic Vesna 
Published: October 2019

Background: Onychomycosis is a fungal nail disorder that does not have a successful cure due to the poor permeability of topical anti-fungal drugs through the nail. This study utilizes ultrasound to increase the permeability of the nail to the topical drugs currently used in clinic. The first aim of this study was to optimize ultrasonic parameters within the temperature increase limits set by the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine (AIUM) and the British Medical Ultrasound Society (BMUS). The second aim of the study was to evaluate the optimized parameters for a cause of action of either cavitation (the creation of micrometer pores in the nail barrier) or acoustic streaming (a steady fluid motion which may help push the drug through the nail).
Methods: Porcine and human nails are used in the five studies. PZFlex Modeling Software is used to model the temperature increase in the toe as a result of ultrasonic application and these results were used to develop the three parameters tested throughout the rest of the studies. The three parameters tested were 1 min of continuous ultrasonic application, 3 min of 50% ultrasonic application and 5 min of 50% ultrasonic application. In order to address the second aim of our research work, these three parameters were tested for the presence of streaming and cavitation.
Results: At the three tested parameters, the most permeation of the nail occurs with 1 min of continuous application of ultrasound to the nail. It was also found that there was limited cavitation and significant streaming at all three parameters. This suggests that streaming may be the main mechanism-of-action in ultrasound-mediated drug delivery through the nail.
Conclusion: The parameter of 1 min of continuous ultrasonic testing will continue to be employed as the testing is moved to a rabbit model of onychomycosis.
Investigating the significance of tumor-infiltrating immune cells for the prognosis of lung squamous cell carcinoma
Authors: Zhu Yueyan , Zhang Xiaoqin 
Published: October 2019

Objective
Increasing evidence has indicated an association between immune cells infiltration in LSCC and clinical outcome. The aim of this research was tantamount to comprehensively investigate the effect of 22 tumor infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) on the prognosis of LSCC patients.

Methods
In our research, the CIBERSORT algorithm was utilized to calculate the proportion of 22 TIICs in 502 cases from the TCGA cohort. Cases with a CIBERSORT P-value of <0.05 were kept for further study. Using the CIBERSORT algorithm, we first investigated the difference of immune infiltration between normal tissue and LSCC in 22 subpopulations of immune cells. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to analyze the effect of 22 TIICs on the prognosis of LSCC. An immune risk score model was constructed based on TIICs correlated with LSCC-related recurrence. Multivariate cox regression analysis was used to investigate whether the immune risk score was an independent factor for prognosis prediction of LSCC. Nomogram was under construction to comprehensively predict the survival rate of LSCC.

Results
The results of the different analysis showed that except of memory B cells, naive CD4+T cells, T cells and activated NK cells, the remaining immune cells all had differential infiltration in normal tissues and LSCC (p < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed two immune cells statistically related to LSCC-related recurrence, including activated mast cells and follicular helper T cells. Immune risk score model was constructed based on three immune cells including resting memory CD4+T cells, activated mast cells and follicular helper T cells retained by forward stepwise regression analysis. The Kaplan-Meier curve indicated that patients in the high-risk group linked to poor outcome (P = 8.277e−03). ROC curve indicated that the immune risk score model was reliable in predicting recurrence risk (AUC = 0.614). Multivariate cox regression analysis showed that the immune risk score model was just an independent factor for prognosis prediction of LSCC (HR = 2.99, 95% CI [1.65–5.40]; P = 0.0002). The nomogram model combined immune risk score and clinicopathologic parameter score to predict 3-year survival in patients with LSCC.

Conclusions
Collectively, tumor-infiltrating immune cells play a major role in the prognosis of LSCC.
Composition, Engineering and Industrial Significance of Soil Deposits along Major Highways in Ondo State, Nigeria
Authors: O. Falowo O. 
Published: October 2019

Geochemical and geotechnical studies of soil deposits along some highways in Ondo State were investigated. Field mapping revealed an underlying basement rock suite comprising granite, granite gneiss, migmatite and schist. The geochemical analysis employed X-ray fluorescence and Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS) to determine the major and minor oxide geochemistry while particle size analysis test, Atterberg limit test, compaction test, specific gravity, triaxial compression test and California bearing ratio were determined following the British Standards (BS-1337). Abundances of major elements show a predominant (43.4–61.30%), (18.30–33.70%) and (14.50–23.28%) constitute over 95% of the bulk chemical compositions. Other constituents include and The silica:sesquioxide ratio of the soil shows that all sampled soil are true laterite except samples AL-1 and AF-1 (are lateritic) which correspond to samples taken from sites 1 and 3 respectively. However, the soils satisfy Federal Ministry of Works and Housing of Nigeria and AASHTO recommended standard for subgrade and subbase/base foundation construction materials, but samples AL-3, OF-2, and OF-4 need to be graded with sand or gravel to reduce its plasticity, while only sample AL-2 can serve as base course material for highway construction. It’s concluded from the results that the tested soils have more engineering applications than industrial usage since only samples from sites 1 and 3 can serve as ceramic material and brick clay provided the alumina and iron contents are reduced. The soils in their raw state, may not be able to serve as fillers and coating materials in the paint and cosmetic industries, generally due to an amount of sand in the samples (above 50%), which makes them unsuitable.

Published: October 2019

The impact of partially treated wastewater on the water quality of Notwane river stretch in the Gaborone region of Botswana was investigated. Water samples collected at effluent discharge point and three other sampling sites downstream were analyzed for pH, temperature, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD5), Ammonia-nitrogen (Ammonia-N) and Nitrate-nitrogen (Nitrate-N). Sampling was conducted bi-weekly between February 2013 and April 2013. The ranges of measured parameters were: pH (7.6-8.5), temperature (22-23ºC), BOD5 (11.2-27.0 mg/l), Ammonia-N (2.4-60.5 mg/l), Nitrate-N (20.6-28.6 mg/l). Analysis of variance, Games-Howel multiple comparisons and Pearson correlation were used to separate variable means. The results signal river non-point pollution due to runoff inflow of organics mainly from land use and domestic waste dumping by nearby dwellings. Temperature, BOD5, and pH range values were all within the Botswana Bureau of Standards (BOBS) limit while the maximum Ammonia-N and Nitrate-N were above BOBS limit by 50.5 mg/l and 6.6 mg/l, respectively. Regulations on indiscriminate waste dumping and discharge standards adherence should be enforced.
