Latent Fingerprint Visualization and Subsequent DNA Extraction Using Electron Beam Evaporation of Metallic Ultra-Thin Films
Authors: Wang Haiping , Mi Dongbo , Wang Wanxu , Zhang Hongliang , Tong Dongsheng , Wang Shengjiang , Gao Feng 
Published: June 2018

Background:
Proper detection and subsequent extraction of biological evidence are crucial
for crime scene reconstruction. Vacuum metal deposition is currently an effective technique used
in latent fingerprint development. However, the established procedures commonly undergo a direct
plasma bombardment, a high ablation fluence and/or a high temperature process in vacuum metal
deposition system.

Method:
In this work, electron beam evaporation (EBE) was used to investigate the development of
latent fingerprints and subsequent DNA extraction of biological evidence. Gold or copper is preferentially
nucleated on the background surfaces rather than the fingerprint residues due to the difference
of the nature of the surface, which indicates that the gold / copper and copper agglomerates are
binding to the fingerprint valleys not the ridges of the fingerprint, revealing bright patterns with excellent
ridge detail clarity on black surfaces.

Result:
It is demonstrated that the co-extraction of the latent fingerprints and DNA is attributed to
electron beam evaporated one-step process with relatively low energy bombarding energetic species
and neutral particles, less possibility of contamination and without toxic and fluorine-based gases.

Conclusion:
Our results demonstrate that EBE is a promising technique for the latent fingerprints
and DNA co-extraction.

Therapeutic Advancement in Alzheimer Disease: New Hopes on the Horizon?
Authors: Singh Ajeet , Hasan Abshar , Tiwari Sakshi , Pandey Lalit M. 
Published: June 2018

Background & Objective:
Over the last two decades, Alzheimer disease (AD) associated
research has accomplished an overwhelming momentum, as it is one of the major current healthcare
issues in the developed world. AD is characterized by the presence of Aβ mediated extracellular amyloid
fibrils and tau-mediated intracellular neurofibrillar tangles and reports have highlighted their subsequent
effects on neuronal synaptic activity, antioxidant response and recently explored mitochondrial
dysfunction. Additionally, recent reports have demonstrated the mitochondrial dysfunction and
associated physiological as well as cellular alterations triggered by fibrillar structures inside the brain
tissue. Accumulated evidence indicated that mitochondrial dysfunction also plays a detrimental role in
AD pathogenesis and reduction in mitochondrial dysfunction may provide an additional beneficial effect
in AD patients. Currently available drugs are ineffective in disease progression and more symptomatic
while mechanism oriented drug explorations have been intensively investigated. Therefore,
search for effective therapeutic approaches in Alzheimer disease has directed the ongoing research
more towards specific biomarker selection, physicochemical properties of drugs and its subsequent interaction
with target molecules.

Conclusion:
In present review, we have comprised an overview of the therapeutic advancement in
Alzheimer disease with a prevalent hypothesis and current ongoing putative therapeutic approaches to
provide recent insights in AD pathogenesis.

Authors: Zhang Qiang , Hai Zhenyin , Wang Jie , Jian Aoqun , Duan Qianqian , Ji Jianlong , Zhang Wendong , Sang Shengbo 
Published: June 2018

Background:
With the increasing serious problem of water environment pollution, it is a
hot spot to study the high efficient sewage treatment method. Owning to the photosensitization of
carbon nanomaterials, carbon doped TiO2 (C-TiO2) has higher photocatalytic activity.

Method:
Here, we proposed a new method, carbon-assisted method, to prepare C-TiO2 nanomaterials.
We first used degreasing cotton as a dispersant to fully absorb the TiCl4 sol.

Results:
After high-temperature calcination, C-TiO2nanomaterials were obtained. Characterizations
results showed that the high specific surface area C-TiO2 nanomaterials in the size of about 50 nm
showed a broader light absorption and narrower bandgap spectrum than P25 (commercial TiO2
nanoparticles).

Conclusion:
The C-TiO2 nanomaterials showed stronger photocatalytic ability than P25.
Titania Based Nano-ionic Memristive Crossbar Arrays: Fabrication and Resistive Switching Characteristics
Authors: Sahoo S. , Manoravi P. , Prabaharan S.R.S. 
Published: June 2018

Introduction:
Intrinsic resistive switching properties of Pt/TiO2-x/TiO2/Pt crossbar memory
array has been examined using the crossbar (4×4) arrays fabricated by using DC/RF sputtering under
specific conditions at room temperature.

Materials and Methods:
The growth of filament is envisaged from bottom electrode (BE) towards the
top electrode (TE) by forming conducting nano-filaments across TiO2/TiO2-x bilayer stack. Non-linear
pinched hysteresis curve (a signature of memristor) is evident from I-V plot measured using Pt/TiO2-x
/TiO2/Pt bilayer device (a single cell amongst the 4×4 array is used). It is found that the observed I-V
profile shows two distinguishable regions of switching symmetrically in both SET and RESET cycle.
Distinguishable potential profiles are evident from I-V curve; in which region-1 relates to the electroformation
prior to switching and region-2 shows the switching to ON state (LRS). It is observed that
upon reversing the polarity, bipolar switching (set and reset) is evident from the facile symmetric
pinched hysteresis profile. Obtaining such a facile switching is attributed to the desired composition of
Titania layers i.e. the rutile TiO2 (stoichiometric) as the first layer obtained via controlled post annealing
(650oC/1h) process onto which TiO2-x (anatase) is formed (350oC/1h).

Results:
These controlled processes adapted during the fabrication step help manipulate the desired potential
barrier between metal (Pt) and TiO2 interface. Interestingly, this controlled process variation is found
to be crucial for measuring the switching characteristics expected in Titania based memristor. In order to
ensure the formation of rutile and anatase phases, XPS, XRD and HRSEM analyses have been carried out.

Conclusion:
Finally, the reliability of bilayer memristive structure is investigated by monitoring the
retention (104 s) and endurance tests which ensured the reproducibility over 10,000 cycles.
Hydrophobic Modification of Copper Nanospheres for Incorporation into Poloxamer Micelles, Aggregated Micellar Nanocages and Supramolecular Assemblies
Authors: Xu Yunlong , Melkis Kaspars , Sia Chinn T. , Sarker Dipak K. 
Published: June 2018

Background:
Polymer nanogels are increasingly used for the encapsulation of
nano-solids and quantum dots such as in advanced forms of drug and therapeutic isotope
delivery.

Objective:
Unlike ex vivo application of systems in vivo application and internalization
are likely to suffer from aspects of failure to ensure safety and biocompatibility. Biocompatible
hydrophilic poloxamer (Pluronic F108 and F68) micelles were studied by light
scattering and tensiometry.

Methods:
The micelles of nano-gels are synthetic heteropolymer aggregates, which are
used to encapsulate drugs but in this study chemically-modified (hydrophobized) copper
nano-spheres, for the purposes of demonstration for further application and medical use.
Copper benzoate nano-particles (CuBzNPs) were produced by maceration and subsequently
stabilized in Pluronic F108 solution was added at different concentrations.

Results:
The resulting particle size increase was studied by dynamic light scattering. Moderate
size increase was observed at low Pluronic F108 concentrations, which indicated successful
coating, but at higher F108 concentrations large size agglomerates formed. Coated
copper benzoate nano-particles (CuBzNPs) were fabricated as a proof-of-principle and as a
substitute for bare metal nano-particles (MNs), which were not successfully entrained in the
poloxamer nano-gel. As part of the synthesis copper benzoate (CuBz) beads and their characterization
through contact angle measurements were performed.

Conclusion:
Micelles sizes of 4 nm for F68 Pluronic at equilibrium surface tensions of 36
mNm-1 were captured in weak, 1.25 to 2.0 Pas pseudoplastic gels fabricated from hydroxypropylmethylcellulose
(HPMC).

A ESTÉTICA DO CAPITAL E O MUNDO DAS COISAS
Authors: Doti Marcelo , Delgado Darlan 
Published: June 2018

O presente ensaio tem como eixo temático de desenvolvimento a concepção de um espaço produzido pelo capital e inundado de coisas. Porém coisas do capital, ou seja, sua objetivação mais espetacular (no próprio sentido de espetáculo), a mercadoria. Esta fere os sentidos de uma forma completamente diferente de outros objetos, pois se carrega de simbologia estética. Isso conduz a uma forma própria de educação do capital, além de outras: a educação estética e sua violência. Entretanto, não se coloca essa problemática sem a devida referência nas relações de classe e os detentores do poder de decisão de como tal estética irá educar centralizando não apenas capital como também a centralização dos sentidos.
A PESQUISA EM TRABALHO E EDUCAÇÃO NAS REGIÕES NORTE E NORDESTE
Authors: Araujo Ronaldo , Oliveira Ramon , Cêa Georgia 
Published: June 2018

Apresenta um estado da arte da produção da área Trabalho e Educação no Norte e no Nordeste com o qual revela potencialidades, tendências e lacunas. Utiliza-se de análise documental, considerando resumos de teses, dissertações e trabalhos apresentados nas edições do Encontro de Pesquisa Educacional do Norte e Nordeste (EPENN), no período de 2003 a 2012. A partir do uso de três categorias empíricas, temáticas, referências/referenciais e metodologias, identificou que há disparidades em relação à importância atribuída pelos diferentes tipos de produção a determinados temas, mas que é significativa a presença de estudos sobre a educação do campo, de estudos de cunho teórico-metodológico e de análises que tomam as políticas educacionais como objeto, com destaque para o ensino médio integrado e para políticas específicas de formação de trabalhadores. Identificou, ainda, uma séria fragilidade metodológica das produções e uma hegemonia de estudos de perspectivas críticas, fundadas no marxismo. Conclui que a área Trabalho e Educação está consolidada no Norte e no Nordeste, apesar de haver centralização institucional das produções, mas que o seu fortalecimento requer o enfrentamento dos problemas e lacunas levantados.
ESTADO E EDUCAÇÃO POPULAR NA REVOLUÇÃO PORTUGUESA
Authors: Canário Rui 
Published: June 2018

Este artigo dá continuidade a uma análise das dinâmicas de educação popular na Revolução Portuguesa de 25 de Abril de 1974, com base na contraposição analítica dos conceitos de autonomia e heteronomia das classes trabalhadoras. No caso presente o foco analítico incide sobre as iniciativas heterónomas, por parte do Estado, com intencionalidade educativa, no período de 1974-1976. Três ações são consideradas como as mais significativas: a Campanha de Dinamização Cultural (da iniciativa do Movimento das Forças Armadas), o programa SAAL (Serviço Ambulatório de Apoio Local) e o Programa de ação da DGEP (Direção Geral de Educação Permanente), sendo os dois últimos da iniciativa dos Governos Provisórios. Conclui-se que a ação heterónoma do estado pode manter-se num quadro de total exterioridade em relação aos movimentos sociais (caso da Campanha de Dinamização Cultural) mas também pode revelarse fecunda quando combinada com a iniciativa popular, criam-se então condições para que processos de educação popular se concretizem. No caso do Programa SAAL verifica-se um processo de aliança entre moradores pobres e arquitetos, na resolução de problemas habitacionais. Por fim, o Programa de Ação da DGEP materializa a aposta de um serviço educativo estatal no desenvolvimento de processos de educação popular autogerida.

Authors: Ferreira Luciana , Júnior João 
Published: June 2018

O artigo apresenta, de forma sintética, o estudo de tese sobre o ‘trabalho de professores jovens doutores’, analisado a partir do discurso sobre as práticas cotidianas na universidade e a produção de conhecimento. A empiria sobre o trabalho de professores permanentes da pós-graduação, com bolsa produtividade em Pesquisa e com menos de dez anos de doutoramento, no contexto de trabalho na Universidade Federal de São Carlos, SP. O processo de investigação se constituiu de três momentos interligados: estudo teórico e análise documental; coleta de dados, em bases estatísticas oficiais e Currículo Lattes dos professores; e trabalho empírico. Concentrou-se, ao final, no exercício de reflexão acerca de duas dimensões contraditórias reveladas no discurso dos professores: a paixão pelo trabalho docente e a pressão e estranhamento por ele causados. Constatouse que, no contexto de uma cooperação internacional, como estratégia para promover a formação de quadros de pesquisadores nas universidades e a alta produção de conhecimento se tornaram metas nas regulações de agências de fomento, claramente pautadas na velocidade necessária para acompanhar as mudanças tecnológicas mundiais, pelas quais o Brasil teria que, num enorme esforço, avançar, criando capacidades e competências em áreas estratégicas, por meio de pesquisas e pesquisadores, especialmente pelos jovens-doutores no âmbito da pós-graduação.

Authors: Azzuhri Abdul Adhim , Wibowo Richo Andi 
Published: June 2018

This research aims to find out the reason of lecturers are not interested in competing the research funding of higher education. Afterwards, this research then discusses well the government’s action to respond the problem and then attempts to criticize and suggest solutions towards the action. This research was an empirical normative research, with data analysis based on qualitative method. This research concludes that some lecturers are not interested in doing research through the above mentioned scheme due to: (i) obligation to report of what so called “disposable finance”; (ii) lack of availability for sustainable research scheme; and (iii) unbalanced obligations of the lecturers as stipulated in “Tridharma Pendidikan Tinggi”. The government action in this respect are issuing Financial Ministerial Regulation Number 106/2016; Research, Technology, and Higher Education Ministerial Regulation Number 69/2016; and lately the Presidential Law Number 16 Year 2018 about government procurement. However, these regulations merely answer some of the problems.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui alasan dosen tidak tertarik berkompetisi dalam pendanaan riset pendidikan tinggi dari negara. Setelah itu, penelitian ini akan membahas langkah hukum pemerintah dalam merespon masalah tersebut dan kemudian mencoba memberikan kritik serta tawaran solusi atas langkah hukum tersebut. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian normatif empiris, dengan analisis data didasarkan pada metode kualitatif. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa beberapa dosen tidak tertarik melakukan penelitian melalui skema yang disebutkan di atas karena: (i) kewajiban untuk melaporkan dengan apa yang disebut “keuangan habis pakai”; (ii) kurang tersedianya skema penelitian berkelanjutan; dan (iii) kewajiban dosen yang tidak seimbang sebagaimana ditetapkan dalam “Tridharma Pendidikan Tinggi”. Langkah hukum pemerintah adalah mengeluarkan Peraturan Menteri Keuangan Nomor 106/2016; Peraturan Menteri Riset, Teknologi, dan Pendidikan Tinggi Nomor 69/2016; dan Peraturan Presiden Nomor 16 Tahun 2018 tentang Pengadaan Barang/Jasa Pemerintah. Namun, peraturan tersebut hanya menjawab beberapa permasalahan.
Rekonstruksi Mekanisme Perencanaan Pembentukan Peraturan Pemerintah dan Peraturan Presiden di Indonesia
Authors: Prabandani Hendra Wahanu 
Published: June 2018

There are two competing regulatory planning mechanism that currently exist in Indonesia named preparation program on PP and Perpres and Regulatory Framework. The existing regulatory systems are operated by two diference institutions, Ministry of Law and Humand Right and National Development Planning Board. The problems are becoming complicated since there is another possibility to initiate regulatory process outside regulatory planning mechanism called initiative permit from the President through Ministry of State Secretariat or Secretariat Cabinet. The problem of current regulatory planning is highly time consuming and may lead to inefficiency. Using statutes analysis, coordination theory and comparative study with several countries, this study found that in order to deal with the problems, there should be one single authority for regulatory planning in Indonesia, agreed a national tool of analysis to assess draft of regulations proposed by ministries, and promote a public awarness regarding regulatory agenda in Indonesia.
Abstrak
Saat ini terdapat dualisme mekanisme perencanaan Peraturan Pemerintah (PP) dan Peraturan Presiden (Perpres) yang berlaku di Indonesia yaitu melalui Program Penyusunan PP dan Perpres serta Kerangka Regulasi. Keduanya berjalan dengan dikoordinasi oleh dua institusi yang berbeda yaitu Kementerian Hukum dan HAM dan Badan Perencanaan Pembangunan Nasional. Selain hal tersebut, masih ada mekanisme di luar program perencanaan penyusunan peraturan, yaitu melalui izin prakarsa kepada Presiden RI yang juga dikoordinasikan oleh instansi pemerintah yang berbeda yaitu Kementerian Sekretariat Negara atau Sekretariat Kabinet. Keberadaan berbagai mekanisme yang harus ditempuh untuk memulai pembentukan PP dan Perpres ini menimbulkan dampak timbulnya inefisiensi serta manambah panjang manajemen pembentukan peraturan perundang-undangan. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan analisa peraturan perundang-undangan, teori koordinasi dan perbandingan dengan beberapa negara lain, tulisan ini mengemukakan beberapa solusi yang dapat ditempuh untuk menyelesaikan permasalahan tersebut antara lain membentuk satu otoritas tunggal perencanaan peraturan perundang-undangan, menyepakati mekanisme penilaian terhadap usulan peraturan perundang-undangan dan mendorong partisipasi publik dalam perencanaan perundang-undangan.
Aprendiendo para el futuro: una experiencia en Finlandia
Authors: Garita-González Ileana 
Published: June 2018

En las últimas décadas, Finlandia apostó por un modelo educativo del más alto nivel. De esta experiencia exitosa se ha escrito en reiteradas oportunidades, pero normalmente enfocada en la educación y metodología aplicada en el periodo que ellos llaman «Escuela comprensiva», que se extiende por diez años a partir de que el niño cumple los seis años de edad. En este artículo se aborda una experiencia práctica a través de la participación en la «Semana Internacional de Savonia UAS 2018», evento que reúne a connotados profesores universitarios y funcionarios de diversas universidades del mundo, con gran participación de universidades europeas. En el marco de dicho evento y actividades posteriores realizadas, se pretende conocer un modelo de educación universitaria desde la concepción de la Facultad de Negocios, Turismo y Hospitalidad de la Universidad de Ciencias Aplicadas de Savonia (UAS) y las posibilidades que se brindan de identificar estrategias de enseñanza innovadoras que pueden ser aplicadas en la carrera de Gestión Turística Sostenible de la Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED) y las posibilidades futuras de cooperación interuniversitaria.
