Assessing consumer-perceived food quality using conjoint analysis
Authors: Le Tam Minh , Le Sébasien , Nguyen Dzung Hoang 
Published: January 2019

Quality is considered the most indispensable means to compete in the marketplace for all food companies. Apart from the objective quality concerning the physical – chemical – microbiological characteristics, which links to the concept of food security; the subjective quality concerning the quality as perceived by consumers is utmost important since it links to the concept of consumer demand [1].
This paper proposed a new methodology which aimed to assess the subjective quality as follows: (1) to examine whether consumers could perceive and/or understand the quality criteria used by experts to assess the product quality, and (2) in case consumers could do, to investigate whether these expert criteria related to the consumer-perceived quality.
This methodology is based on the traditional conjoint analysis combining with an add-on, the sorting task. Consumers are asked to sort 9 pictures of bananas, and then to rate the pictures according to their perception of the perceived quality presenting on the pictures. The methodology will be illustrated through a case study performed on Vietnamese consumers.
The results showed that: (1) consumers could perceive the experts’ quality criteria such as bruise, shape, and color; and (2) the consumer-perceived quality related to these expert quality criteria. In addition, the results also showed that bruise was the most important attribute affect consumer appreciation of quality.
For practical application, we expected that this methodology could provide useful information about the subjective quality for those researchers who want to improve the quality based on consumer demand.

Infections due to Gram-negative bacteria are common affairs in cancer patients during aggressive therapy. The present study characterizedmulti-drug resistant bacteria (MDR) isolated from cancer aspirates collected from patients admitted to the National Cancer Hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A total of 210 aspirate samples were collected from cancer patients. Out of 210 samples Acinetobacter spp.led the list of isolates (8.89%, n=45). Of these species, 50% exhibited resistance to Amoxycillin and Nitrofurantoin, each, 25% exhibited resistant to Cefotaxime, Azithromycin, Ciprofloxacin, Clindamycin, and Sulfamethoxazole. A total of 33.33% of the Bordetella spp.which accounted 6.67%of the total isolates exhibited resistance to Cefotaxime. All oftheLegionellapneumophila,comprising 4.4%of the isolated species, wereresistant to Cefotaxime, Azithromycin, and Clindamycin.In contrast, 50% were resistant to Cefotaxime, Azithromycin, and Ceftriaxone. Of the Escherichia coli(4.4%, n=45) isolated,50% exhibited resistance to Cefotaxime, Clindamycin, Ceftriaxone, Amoxycillinand Sulfamethoxazole.The only isolate of Klebsiella sp. was demonstrated to be an ESBL producer. The isolation of multidrug resistant bacteria from cancer patients is of particular concern in Bangladesh where cancer and drug resistance are both common phenomena but treatment facilities are poor. To our knowledge this is the first report of the isolation of drug resistant bacteria from cancer patients from Dhaka city.

This study was performed to evaluate the in vivo anticancer activity against ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells and in vitro antimicrobial activity of Psidium guajava bark extracts. By soxhlet apparatus, the P. guajava bark extracts were obtained using four solvents (n-hexane, petroleum benzene, chloroform, and methanol) according to their increasing solubility. In case of in vivo anticancer activity of the sample extracts, mice were seeded with approximately 1x105 ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells. After seven days of consecutive treatment, the negative and positive control groups (n=8 each group) showed an average EAC cell count of 2.4x108 and 1.8x108 respectively, and the experimental groups showed the cell count of 2.2x 108, 2.1x108, 1.9x108, and 1.41x108 when mice received h-hexane, petroleum benzene, chloroform, and methanol extract respectively. Experimental group that received methanol extract showed percent increase of life span (% ILS) of 33.3 when compared with the negative control. However, treatment in a cyclic manner of the mice showed % ILS of 52.15 for experimental group when compared negative control. In antimicrobial activity experiment, an intermediate zone of sensitivity of the crude methanol extract was found against Escherichia coli, Shigella flexneri, and Staphylococcus aureus when compared with amoxicillin. All these results indicated the anticancer activity and antimicrobial activity of the methanol extract of P. guajava barks on different experimental models.

Peran ilmu komputer diberbagai domain ilmu lain telah banyak membantu dalam memecahkan masalah komputasi seperti dalam microbiologi dalam melakukan proses penjajaran DNA. Salah satu teknik dalam penjajaran urutan DNA adalah Needleman-Wunsch yang menggunakan dynamic programming. Kompleksitas dynamic programming ini mencapai O(n2). Untuk mengurangi kompleksitas tersebut, maka salah satunya dengan menggunakan komputer pararel. Penelitian ini berfokus pada paralelisasi Needlemen-Wunsch dengan menggunakan dua komputer yang saling terhubung dan sampel DNA dari GenBank: D85708.1 dan X51404.1. Tahap pengisian matrik dengan komputer pertama mengerjakan matriks segitiga atas, sisanya dengan komputer kedua. Hasilnya nilai speed up menurun drastis hingga 0.3 dan efisiensi mencapai 15 %. Besarnya kompleksitas komunikasi saat pemrosesan menjadi penyebab menurunnya performa hingga 3 kali lipat lebih lambat dari komputer tunggal. Buruknya nilai speed up dan efisiensi tersebut mengindikasikan bahwa untuk mempercepat metode Needlemen-Wunsch sangat tidak mungkin dan keliru memilih komputer pararel untuk menjadi suatu solusi.Kata Kunci: bioinformatika, dynamic programming, komputer pararel, needlemen-wunsch, sequence alignment.
Ekonomi Pancasila di Tengah Arus Kapitalisme Pasar

Published: January 2019

Dalam perekonomian kapitalis setiap warga dapat mengatur nasibnya sendiri sesuai dengan kemampuannya. Semua orang bebas bersaing dalam bisnis untuk memperoleh laba sebesar-besarnya. Semua orang bebas melakukan kompetisi untuk memenangkan persaingan bebas dengan berbagai cara, Pengertian kompetisi dalam moral Pancasila bukan dan tidak sama dengan free fight competition a la barat yang di dalamnya mengandung cara-cara yang boleh merugikan fihak lain (tujuan menghalalkan cara). Hubungan dagang dalam sistem ekonomi Pancasila harus tetap dalam kerangka untuk menjalin tali silaturahmi yang selalu bernuansa saling kasih sayang dan saling menguntungkan, menghindarkan kemuspraan (kesia-siaan). Secara sederhana Ekonomi Pancasila dapat disebut sebagai sebuah sistem ekonomi pasar dengan pengendalian pemerintah atau ekonomi pasar terkendali. Mungkin ada istilah-istilah lain yang mendekati pengertian Ekonomi Pancasila, yaitu sistem ekonomi campuran, maksudnya campuran antara sistem kapitalisme dan sosialisme atau sistem ekonomi jalan ketiga dalam bentuk Koperasi. Koperasi sebagai gerakan ekonomi rakyat sebenarnya memiliki potensi besar untuk tumbuh dan berkembang. Kekuatan partisipasi, totalitas, kemandirian dan kesamaan tujuan menjadi modal dasar bagi koperasi untuk bersaing dengan pelaku-pelaku ekonomi lainnya dalam kancah liberalisasi ekonomi. Koperasi yang menganut prinsip gotong royong, kemandirian, keadilan dan kesetaraan hak sesama anggota menempatkan koperasi sebagai aternatif bagi tumbuhnya suatu bentuk perekonomian yang mengakomodir cita-cita masyarakat untuk memperoleh kemakmuran bersama tanpa meninggalkan aspek-aspek solidaritas, hak asasi dan demokrasi.

Published: January 2019

Background: Exposure ionizing of radiation in radiation workers has the potential to cause DNA damage in the form of double strand break as the beginning of genomic instability. DNA damage can be observed with γ-H2AX as the biomarker of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). The formation of γ-H2AX in the nucleus can occur after radiation exposure of 1 mGy. This study aims to determine the radiation effects in radiation work environments as a study of adaptive responses of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMCs) after radiation by observing γ-H2AX foci expression.. Methods: Blood samples from nine radiation workers and nine non-radiation workers were irradiated with doses 0 Gy, 1 Gy, 1.5 Gy, and 2 Gy. Detection of γ-H2AX foci was done by immunofluorescence assay. The mean of γ-H2AX foci was counted in 50 PBMCs per sample. The comparison mean of γ-H2AX foci was analyzed using tindependent test. Result: Based on the result study, there were no significant differences in the number of γ-H2AX foci without treatment (p = 0.807). The results of study showed that the formation of 2-3 foci per cell after exposure of 2 Gy increases along with the increasing irradiation doses. Conclusion: The mean of index of γ-H2AX foci in PBMCs within normal limits between non-radiation workers and radiation workers and level of risk DSBs damage is relatively similar after exposure at doses 1 Gy, 1.5 Gy, and 2 Gy.

Konglomerasi media memang sangat berpengaruh pada isi konten televisi, khususnya pemberitaan. Media massa khususnya televisi memrosesnya dengan melakukan berbagai macam pembingkaian berita. Pembingkaian terkait dengan bagaimana suatu media mengkonstruksi peristiwa menjadi sebuah realitas berita. Pemahaman individu dan ideologi organisasi adalah faktor utama terjadinya sebuah framing. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menggambarkan dan menganalisis dua talkshow berita besar di Indonesia dalam membingkai suatu kasus.Paradigma dalam penelitian ini adalah konstruksionis yang bersifat kualitatif deskriptif. Teori yang digunakan ialah Konstruksi Sosial Peter L. Berger & Thomas Luckmann serta teori Hierarchy of Influences dari Pamela J. Shoemaker dan Stephen D Reese (1966) dan teori Semiotika Roland Barthes. Peneliti menggunakan model analisis framing Pan dan Kosicki dengan kerangka konsep obyektivitas. Metodologi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Deskriptif Kualitatif dengan analisis data Analisis Framing. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah talkshow “Mata Najwa” cenderung melakukan framing lebih tegas ke salah satu calon gubernur sehingga terkesan tidak obyektif. Sama halnya dengan “Rosi” yang cenderung lebih dekat dan akrab pada salah satu pasangan kandidat sehingga terkesan tidak obyektif. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah, masih kurangnya unsur obyektivitas dalam pertelevisian Indonesia, khususnya dalam program informasi, yang seharusnya mengusung unsur obyektivitas dalam menyajikan informasi.

Authors: Jensen Henry , Merrild Camilla Hoffmann , Møller Henrik , Vedsted Peter 
Published: January 2019

BackgroundPatients who rarely consult a GP in the 19–36 months before a cancer diagnosis have more advanced cancer at diagnosis and a worse prognosis. To ensure more timely diagnosis of cancer, the GP should suspect cancer as early as possible.AimTo investigate the GP’s suspicion of cancer according to the patient with cancer’s usual consultation pattern in general practice.Design and settingA cross-sectional study based on survey data from general practice of 3985 Danish patients diagnosed with cancer from May 2010 to August 2010, and linked to national register data.MethodUsing logistic regression analysis with restricted cubic splines, the odds ratio (OR) of the GP to suspect cancer as a function of the patient’s number of face-to-face consultations with the GP in the 19–36 months before a cancer diagnosis was estimated.ResultsGPs’ cancer suspicion decreased with higher usual consultation frequency in general practice. A significant decreasing trend in ORs for cancer suspicion was seen across usual consultation categories overall (P<0.001) and for each sex (males: P<0.05; females: P<0.05). GPs’ cancer suspicion was lower in patients aged <55 years in both rare and frequent attenders compared with average attenders.ConclusionGPs suspect cancer more often in rare attenders ≥55 years. GPs’ cancer suspicion was lower in younger patients (<55 years), in both rare and frequent attenders. GPs should be aware of possible missed opportunities for cancer diagnosis in young attenders and use safety netting to reduce the risk of missing a cancer diagnosis.
