Abstract
The demand for corn in Indonesia is dominated as raw material for animal feed, so the high and low price of corn will have a big impact on the price of livestock products such as chicken and chicken eggs. The Covid-19 gives an impact on the uncertainty of food commodity prices. As we know, food price stability is one of the supports for maintaining a balance of production and consumer buying power. This study aims to analyze the price volatility of corn, chicken meat, and chicken eggs in Indonesia during the Covid-19 pandemic. The ARCH/GARCH model was used as an approach to analyzing volatility in the monthly prices of corn, chicken meat, and chicken eggs at the consumer level during the January 2011-June 2020 period. This research showed that the price of corn and chicken is categorized as high volatility category, while chicken eggs are a low volatility category with the form is asymmetric. It can be concluded that the price uncertainty faced by consumers in the future for corn and chicken meat will be bigger, while chicken eggs will be decreased. Therefore, it is expected that the government will make policies for maintaining the stability of food supply and prices.

Abstract
The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of formic acid and/or Saccharomyces cerevisiae on breast meat characteristics of the Indonesian indigenous crossbred chickens. A total of 200 day-old chicks were randomly distributed to four experimental groups (with five replications each), including T0 (chicks fed control diet), T1 (chicks fed diet supplemented with formic acid at 2g/kg), T2 (diet supplemented with S. cerevisiae at 3g/kg) and T3 (diet supplemented with formic acid at 2g/kg and S. cerevisiae at 3g/kg). At week 9, the chicks were slaughtered and from which the samples of breast meat were collected. Our results showed that total protein was higher (p < 0.05) in breast meat of T3 than that in other groups. The moisture content and water holding capacity were lower (p < 0.05) than that in other groups. The breast meat from T0 showed higher (p < 0.05) L* (lightness) values than other meats. The fat content, pH, a* (redness) and b* (yellowness) values of meats were not substantially affected by the treatments. In conclusion, dietary supplementation of a combined mixture of formic acid and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was effective in improving the breast meat quality of the Indonesian indigenous crossbred chickens.

Abstract
Nano-materials are considered as a fundamental constituent in almost every field of medical science to engineering. However, the field of application of nano-material largely depends on its structural, chemical and optical properties of nano-material. Doping of nano-materials results in changes their particle size and band-gap which effects its applications. In this work, the effect of change in band-gap and particle size has been studied for 2nd group element doped ZnO (Zinc Oxide) nanostructures synthesized on AAO (Anode Aluminum Oxide) template having a pore size of 180.5 nm fabricated using chemical bath deposition and Anodization respectively. Fuzzy logic rule based system is used to study the effect of 2nd group element doping in ZnO nano-structure fabricated on AAO template with a fix pore size on the band-gap and output nanostructure. With addition of 2nd group element in ZnO nano-structure, a variation in rod length and band-gap has been observed. A decrease of rod length and an increase in band-gap have been observed by the addition of 2nd group including Be, Mg, Ca and Sr elements in ZnO nano-crystal.

Published: July 2021

Abstract
In this study, SiC nanocoatings were prepared on graphite substrates via a laser treatment process. Different laser energy densities were employed in the laser treatment. The surface morphology and elemental composition were systematically studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the phase composition and coating microstructure. A high-temperature oxidation test was also conducted to determine their anti-oxidation performance. The results show that laser irradiation triggers the transformation from micro SiC particles into SiC nanocoating consisting of numerous polycrystalline SiC nanoparticles. At the laser energy density of 10.42 kJ cm−2, the prepared SiC nanocoating reveals the best oxidation resistance at a high-temperature environment in tested samples. In addition to its dense and crack-free surface morphology, the formation of SiO2 in the SiC nanocoating also helped to enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance as a self-healing agent. Laser preparation of SiC nanocoating enhances the high-temperature oxidation resistance and protects the underneath graphite substrate, which serves as an efficient and effective manufacturing method for SiC protective coatings.

Abstract
Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) has been extensively investigated in the fields of environment and energy, whereas its practical implementation is still limited due to its unsatisfactory energy efficiency. In order to improve the energy efficiency of DBD, a novel double dielectric barrier discharge (NDDBD) reactor with high field emission and secondary electron emission was developed and compared with traditional DDBD (TDDBD) configuration. Firstly, the discharge characteristics of the two DDBD reactors were analyzed. Compared to TDDBD, the NDDBD reactor exhibited much stronger discharge intensity, higher transferred charge, dissipated power and gas temperature due to the effective utilization of cathode field emission and secondary electron emission. Subsequently, toluene abatement performance of the two reactors was evaluated. The toluene decomposition efficiency and mineralization rate of NDDBD were much higher than that of TDDBD, which were 86.44%–100% versus 28.17%–80.48% and 17.16%–43.42% versus 7.17%–16.44% at 2.17–15.12 W and 1.24–4.90 W respectively. NDDBD also exhibited higher energy yield than TDDBD, whereas the overall energy constant

of the two reactors were similar. Finally, plausible toluene decomposition pathway in TDDBD and NDDBD was suggested based on organic intermediates that generated from toluene degradation. The finding of this study is expected to provide reference for the design and optimization of DBD reactor for volatile organic compounds control and other applications.
New perspectives on propofol allergy
Authors: Johnson Jessica L , Hawthorne Ashley , Bounds Michael , Weldon David J 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

Purpose
Propofol is an intravenous sedative used in many patient populations and care settings. Although generally considered safe and effective, the drug has historically been avoided in patients with reported allergies to egg, soy, and/or peanut on the basis of the manufacturer’s prescribing information. Concerns exist for potential adverse events, increased medication costs, reduced efficacy, and risk of medication errors when using alternative agents. Here we present a critical examination of the literature concerning cross-reactivity of food allergies with propofol to provide evidence-based recommendations for the evaluation and management of potential allergic reactions.

Summary
Literature regarding the history of propofol allergy warnings and clinical trial data were assessed to provide an alternative perspective on avoidance of propofol in patients with food allergies. Suspected trigger molecules are discussed, with evaluation of the antigenic potential of excipient ingredients used in the manufacture of multiple propofol formulations. Evidence-based recommendations are provided for pharmacist-led screening of adult patients with reported food allergies to support selection of propofol or alternative therapy.

Conclusion
There is a lack of definitive evidence that propofol must be routinely avoided in patients with reported allergies to egg, soy, and/or peanut products. Data from clinical trials suggest that propofol is safe for patients with nonanaphylactic food allergies. Patients who do experience allergic reactions following administration of propofol should undergo further testing to definitively identify the specific trigger and prevent future unnecessary avoidance of preferred medication regimens. Pharmacists can play an important role in interviewing patients with reported food allergies to better determine the risk vs benefit of propofol avoidance.
