Abstract
Previous studies have shown that traceability system is an important technical means to solve food safety problems. As a way of information disclosure, traceability system can effectively improve the problem of information asymmetry in the food supply chain, so as to overcome market failure and improve food safety to a certain extent. However, the mechanism of information transmission of traceability system is controversial. One view is that consumers obtain more food safety information through food traceability to judge whether food is safe or not. Another view is that the traceability system sends quality signals to consumers to improve their confidence and effectiveness in purchasing food. According to the current research results, based on the origin and quality attribute two variable scale design, using the survey data of chengdu, 1116 consumers SPSS factor analysis is adopted to establish the index of correlation matrix, combined the theory of information entropy, determine the index weight of two kinds of attribute information, to verify that the consumer information transfer mechanism of food traceability system preferences. The results show that 72.22% consumers prefer the food traceability system to directly transmit quality assurance signals to them, which verifies that the traceability system is more effective in solving information asymmetry through signal path.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are efficient adsorption materials for carbon capture and storage. We proposed a strategy of solid-liquid in-situ reaction method to grow MOFs in activated carbon granule (AC), preparing high efficient CO2 adsorbent. At first, metal salts were solidified in the pores of AC granule carriers by 445 K treating. Then the organic ligands were introduced into the pores of AC. The MOF can be successfully prepared by solidliquid reaction method. By this method, MOFs uniformly disperse in AC pores, making it possible for MOFs used in fixed bed adsorption separation. The CO2 adsorption was tested by conducting breakthrough experiments in a fixed bed. When organic ligand concentration increased from 0 to 6%, the CO2 uptake value increased from 0.2868 mmol⋅g−1 to 0.3324 mmol⋅g−1 in the CO2/Air atmosphere with CO2 concentration of 10%. The CO2 uptake value increased 67% at 5000 PPM compared to original AC.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
It is challenging to remove low concentration CO2 from water. Membrane degassing has potential advantages in degassing from water. In this paper, PP hollow fiber membrane (HFM) was prepared via TIPS method using carnauba wax (Cwax) and soybean oil (SO) as binary green diluents. The effects of extrusion temperature on the membrane properties were studied. The results showed that when the extrusion temperature increased from 155 °C to 170 °C, the membrane pore size first increased and then decreased, and the maximum value was obtained at 165 °C. The extrusion temperature had little effect on morphology and liquid entry pressure (LEP) of the membrane. Considering the pore size and LEP synthetically, the optimized PP HFM was prepared at the extrusion temperature of 170 °C, and fabricated into the membrane module. The CO2 degassing performance from the water in RO system was studied. The results showed that the degassing efficiency (η) decreased as the water flow rate increased, which was mainly due to the decreasing water residence time in the membrane module. When the effective membrane length increased to 4.41 m, the η was almost stable at 80%.

Authors: Hu Jinmei , Zhou Lin 
Published: November 2019

Abstract
Sesame seeds are being used since long time worldwide and particularly in China as a food ingredient. However, insufficient information is available with micro mineral concentrations in different varieties of sesame seeds. The study compared the mineral composition in six varieties of black and white sesame seeds in China. Eleven trace elements (V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Se, Mo and Ba) were quantified on inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) after closed-vessel microwave digestion. In general, average levels of Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn and Ba in selected varieties ranged 1.07-7.40 mg/100 g, based on dry weight of the samples. Nevertheless, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Se and Mo were found at lower concentrations (<0.14 mg/100 g). The average concentrations of Mn, Fe and Zn in black sesame varieties were higher than that of the white varieties. No significant variation was noted for V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Se, Mo and Ba contents between black and white sesame seeds. On the whole, black varieties of sesame exhibited similar levels of investigated elements, which could be helpful to suggest the consumption value of sesame seeds based on mineral contents.

Abstract
Mycorrhiza has been known could increase plants’ nutrient uptake through promoting root zone which resulted in higher yield production. A glasshouse experiment was conducted to optimize the technology for arbuscular mycorrhiza biofertilizer production through hydroponic system with automatic watering system and nutrient solution modification. Sorghum bicolor was used as host plants, grown for six weeks on medium contained mixture of zeolite and rice husk charcoal with the addition of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi inoculum. Different hydroponic techniques (Deep Flow and Ebb Flow) and phosphorus content in nutrient solutions (0, 20, 40, 80 ppm) were tested. Results showed that different types of hydroponic system and rates of P in nutrient solution gave significant differences in increasing mycorrhizal colonization in roots, number of mycorrhizal spores, P uptake and biomass of plants. The best hydroponic technique was Ebb Flow with P content 40 ppm which was 50% lower than the standard nutrient solution for hydroponic. These findings suggest that the production of mycorrhiza biofertilizer through optimization of nutrient solution and growing medium in hydroponic system was potential for future practice. This technology could be used for mass production of “clean” and good quality of mycorrhizal biofertilizer.

Abstract
Crop production is of major supports for ever-growing population. As for other crops, wheat cannot escape from weed interference which may result in significant loss of yield. Therefore, the success of agricultural practices depends on pest and diseases management including weeds. Agricultural chemicals such as herbicides has been widely applied to maximize crop yield including wheat. The present study was conducted to determine the appropriate herbicide to control weeds associated with wheat and wheat growth and yield. The experiment was carried out at farmer’s land at Batu Bagiriek, Jorong Galagah, Kenagarian Alahan Panjang, Solok, the Province of West Sumatra from May to September 2015. The experimental sites is located at 1.0729° S, 100.7831° E, 1616 m above sea level with temperature ranging from 20 to 25 °C. Three treatments i.e herbicide metsulfuron-methyl (25 g ai ha-1), herbicide 2,4 dimethylamine (1.5 L ai ha-1), and no weed control treatment were studied. Each treatment was replicated four times in a completely randomized design. Data were analysed with ANOVA and mean separation of Tukey HSD at 5%. Results demonstrate that herbicide 2,4 dimethylamine was best to control broad leaf weeds resulted in the highest yield of wheat grain of 6.14 tonnes/ha. Lawn grass (Axonopus compressus) and goose grass (Eleusine indica) were found to be dominant weeds.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
Food security can be interpreted by ensuring access to food for each individual to fulfill their food needs in order to live healthy and active. The effort to improve food security is through integrated farming systems. Integrated Farming System (IFS) is a system of managing crops, livestock and fish with their environment to be closed to high productivity, security of production and conservation of resources that are relatively in line with limited land, labor and capital. The results of the analysis of the level of welfare of farmers in Jatisari Village used the indicator of Farmer Exchange Rate method. The results of the calculation can be known to the farmer exchange rate of 81.1% in which Farmer Exchange Rate is less than 100%, meaning that farmers in Jatisari Village are not prosperous. From the results of the analysis of local potential, it can be concluded that food crop farming (rice, corn, and soybeans) is a dominant potential and has not provided farmers’ welfare. The conclusion of this study is that (1) IFS in Jatisari Village has good prospects as an effort to increase community income, (2) IFS will develop optimally by utilizing local resources from various sub-sectors synergy with technology as new sources of income for the community through empowerment.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
Agriculture is an activity burdened with multiple risk factors, some of which are related to yields and price fluctuations. The uncertainty of the yields and also the price on agricultural commodities often leads farmer to loss. Therefore, farmers tend to resist from the possibility of risk and uncertainty of agribusiness. As a decision marker, farmers become reluctant to increase investment to develop and expand their business in agriculture. The research aims to: 1) analyse the risk of cost, production and price; 2) identify farmer behaviour to the risk of corn farming system; 3) determine the factors that affecting farmers’ behaviour toward risk of corn farming system. The research was conducted at Karanggintung Village, Sumbang District, Banyumas Region which is one of corn producing villages in Banyumas Region. Variation coefficient, quadratic utility function model, and regression analysis were used in this study. Results show that farmers face high risk on cost, while it is low on the risk of production and price. From thirty seven respondents, 70.27% farmers are risk averter, 10.81% farmers are risk lover, and the remaining is neutral. Farmers’ behaviour was influenced by harvest area, years of education, and experience.
New horizons in rib fracture management in the older adult
Authors: Coary Roisin , Skerritt Conor , Carey Anthony , Rudd Sarah , Shipway David 
Published: November 2019

AbstractAdults aged ≥60 years now represent the majority of patients presenting with major trauma. Falls are the most common cause of injury, accounting for nearly three-quarters of all traumas in this population. Trauma to the thorax represents the second most common site of injury in this population, and is often associated with other serious injuries. Mortality rates are 2–5 times higher in older adults compared to their younger counterparts, often despite equivalent injury severity scores. Risk scoring systems have been developed to identify rib fracture patients at high risk of deterioration. Overall mortality from rib fractures is high, at approximately 10% for all ages. Mortality and morbidity from rib fractures primarily derive from pain-induced hypoventilation, pneumonia and respiratory failure. The main goal of care is therefore to provide sufficient analgesia to allow respiratory rehabilitation and prevent pulmonary complications. The provision of analgesia has evolved to incorporate novel regional anaesthesia techniques into conventional multimodal analgesia. Analgesia algorithms may aid early aggressive management and escalation of pain control. The current role for surgical fixation of rib fractures remains unclear for older adults who have been underrepresented in the research literature. Older adults with rib fractures often have multi-morbidity and frailty which complicate their injuries. Trauma services are evolving, and increasingly geriatricians will be embedded into trauma services to deliver comprehensive geriatric assessment. This review aims to provide an evidence-based overview of the management of rib fractures for the physician treating older patients who have sustained trauma.

Published: November 2019

Abstract
Moonlighting proteins provide more options for cells to execute multiple functions without increasing the genome and transcriptome complexity. Although there have long been calls for computational methods for the prediction of moonlighting proteins, no method has been designed for determining moonlighting long noncoding ribonucleicacidz (RNAs) (mlncRNAs). Previously, we developed an algorithm MoonFinder for the identification of mlncRNAs at the genome level based on the functional annotation and interactome data of lncRNAs and proteins. Here, we update MoonFinder to MoonFinder v2.0 by providing an extensive framework for the detection of protein modules and the establishment of RNA–module associations in human. A novel measure, moonlighting coefficient, was also proposed to assess the confidence of an ncRNA acting in a moonlighting manner. Moreover, we explored the expression characteristics of mlncRNAs in sepsis, in which we found that mlncRNAs tend to be upregulated and differentially expressed. Interestingly, the mlncRNAs are mutually exclusive in terms of coexpression when compared to the other lncRNAs. Overall, MoonFinder v2.0 is dedicated to the prediction of human mlncRNAs and thus bears great promise to serve as a valuable R package for worldwide research communities (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/MoonFinder/index.html). Also, our analyses provide the first attempt to characterize mlncRNA expression and coexpression properties in adult sepsis patients, which will facilitate the understanding of the interaction and expression patterns of mlncRNAs.
