Mean green water savings through trade of agricultural and industrial commodities (1996-2005)
Authors: Guefradj Najet 
Published: July 2018

The national water saving of a country as a result of trade in a certain commodity is calculated as the net import volume of this commodity times the water footprint of the commodity per commodity unit in the country considered. A negative sign means a net national water loss instead of a saving. Here, green water savings through the trade of industrial and agricultural products are considered.
Annual estimations are given for the period 1996-2005, in million cubic meter per year. In the table, data are also disaggregated per commodities: crop products, animal products, and industrial products.

DETERMINATION OF GLYCOGEN IN BEE ORGAN TISSUES AS AN ENERGY METABOLISM PARAMETER
Authors: Serduchenko I. V. , Gugushvili N. N. 
Published: July 2018

New method of glycogen determination in bee organ tissues, considerably different from the existing ones, was suggested. Ghoreishi’s colorimetric method used today is time-, labor- and cost-consuming as the major reagent – orcin – is quite expensive. Comparison of cost-effectiveness of the two methods demonstrated that the proposed technique makes it possible to reduce expenses by using a more available and less expensive resorcin instead of orcin and reducing total test time from 4 to 3 hours 5 minutes. Glycogen contents determination using the updated method was performed in bees of four breeds: Italian-Carpathian, Carpathian, Oka, gray Caucasus mountain honeybees. It was determined that the Oka honeybees demonstrated the highest glycogen level. It is known that the higher is glycogen contents in organs and tissues the better is energy metabolism in insects. Consequently, honeybees of Oka breeds have higher resistance to unfavorable weather conditions and can produce progeny with a higher level of immunity. So, the specified method of glycogen determination in bee organ tissues increases the accuracy of diagnosis and plays a very important role in determining the level of energy metabolism in insects and will be useful for apiculture.

Published: July 2018

Urinary bladder diverticulum presenting as an inguinal hernia is an uncommon condition found in about 1-5% of inguinal hernia. Long standing increase of the intravesical pressure resulting from urinary bladder outlet obstruction can cause both secondary bladder diverticula and groin hernias. We present a case of urinary bladder diverticulum herniating through the left inguinal canal, which was confirmed by micturating cystourethrogram. Although these conditions are usually, diagnosed intraoperatively, radiological diagnosis still holds its utmost importance to improve the overall management.

Asean Economic Community (AEC) implemented in 2015 is an effort to increase economic growth in Southeast Asia. Logistics is one of the priority integration sectors in the AEC. In the logistics service sector, as a maritime country, Indonesia consists of thousands of islands which are inseparable unity. This condition makes Indonesia as a country that has import port transportation on front line and inter island transportation. In facing the , Indonesia is required to build an integrated National Logistics System (Sislognas).According to the Logistics Performance Index of World Bank 2010 Indonesia was ranked 75 out of 183 countries. Logistic system in Indonesia still need better handling, besides settling vision problem and mission which not yet integrated. In addition to infrastructure, vision and mission to support the improvement of business competitiveness in Indonesia is also not well integrated and coordinated. The system can be realized if supported by human resources who have logistics knowledge. Lack of human resources in the field of logistics more due to two factors, namely quality and speed. With the implementation of AEC, the government and business people must be ready and face it by preparing business strategy, especially improving human resources in logistics so that Indonesia can compete in this era.Management professionalism, information systems, culture, functional strategies must run simultaneously to achieve a corporate objective. In facing the challenges of globalization of companies or businesses, government and academia need to develop national workforce such as improving the quality of curriculum, as well as effective training to support and improve the quality and motivation of human resources.
Ground-based Optical Transmission Spectroscopy of the Small, Rocky Exoplanet GJ 1132b
Authors: Diamond-Lowe Hannah , Berta-Thompson Zachory , Charbonneau David , Kempton Eliza M.-R. 
Published: July 2018

Abstract
Terrestrial solar system planets either have high mean molecular weight atmospheres, as with Venus, Mars, and Earth, or no atmosphere at all, as with Mercury. We do not have sufficient observational information to know if this is typical of terrestrial planets or a phenomenon unique to the solar system. The bulk of atmospheric exoplanet studies have focused on hot Jupiters and Neptunes, but recent discoveries of small, rocky exoplanets transiting small, nearby stars provide targets that are amenable to atmospheric study. GJ 1132b has a radius of 1.2 R
⊕ and a mass of 1.6 M
⊕, and orbits an M dwarf 12 parsecs away from the solar system. We present results from five transits of GJ 1132b taken with the Magellan Clay Telescope and the LDSS3C multi-object spectrograph. We jointly fit our five data sets when determining the best-fit transit parameters both for the white light curve and wavelength-binned light curves. We bin the light curves into 20 nm wavelength bands to construct the transmission spectrum. Our results disfavor a clear, 10× solar metallicity atmosphere at 3.7σ confidence and a 10% H2O, 90% H2 atmosphere at 3.5σ confidence. Our data are consistent with a featureless spectrum, implying that GJ 1132b has a high mean molecular weight atmosphere or no atmosphere at all, though we do not account for the possible presence of aerosols. This result is in agreement with theoretical work suggesting that a planet of GJ 1132b’s mass and insolation should not be able to retain a H2 envelope.

Published: July 2018

Introduction: Confirmation of tuberculosis (TB) cases in endemic TB settings is a challenge; obtaining fast and cheap, though accurate, diagnostic tools such as biomarkers is thus urgently needed to enable the early detection of TB. This paper evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of combinations of host serological biomarkers for identifying TB.
Methodology: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were used on 70 Venezuelan Creole individuals for evaluating host biomarkers (i.e. CXCL9, sCD14, MMP9 and uPAR proteins) and anti-synthetic peptides covering certain Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) ESAT-6 (P-12033, P-12034 and P-12037) and Ag85A (P-29878) antigen sequences. The target population consisted of adults having active TB (ATB, n = 28), the tuberculin skin test positive (TST+) or individuals with latent TB infection (LTB, n = 28) and TST- or control subjects (CTRL, n = 14).
Results: Receiver operator curve (ROC) analysis revealed good biosignature discriminative ability for 5 serological biomarkers; the accuracy of 3 combinations had a good discriminative ability for diagnosing TB. Anti-P-12034/uPAR detected TB with 96.7% sensitivity and 86.0% specificity, followed by anti-P-12033/uPAR having 96.7% sensitivity and 81.4% specificity. Anti-P-29878/MMP9 had the highest sensitivity (100%), but low specificity (52.17%). Biomarker combinations did not prove efficacious for identifying incipient subclinical TST+TB− subjects at high-risk for TB.
Conclusions: The anti-P-12034/uPAR combination could be useful for identifying clinical TB patients. Such an approach holds promise for further validation.
Global Genome Biodiversity Network – Infrastructure for genomic research
Authors: Barker Katharine 
Published: July 2018

Genomic research depends upon access to DNA or tissue collected and preserved according to high-quality standards. At present, the collections in most natural history museums do not sufficiently address these standards. In response to these challenges, natural history museums, culture collections, herbaria, botanical gardens and others have started to build high-quality biodiversity biobanks. Unfortunately, information about these collections remains fragmented, scattered and largely inaccessible. Without a central registry of relevant institutions, it is difficult and time-consuming to locate the needed samples.
The Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) was created to fill this gap by establishing a central access point for locating samples meeting quality standards for genome-scale applications, while complying with national and international legislations and conventions (e.g. the Nagoya Protocol). The GGBN is rapidly growing and currently has 70 members and works closely together with GBIF, SPNHC, CETAF, INSDC, BOLD, ESBB, ISBER, GSC and others to reach its goals.
Knowledge of biodiversity biobank content is urgently needed to enable concerted efforts and strategies in collecting and sampling new material and making ABS a reality. GGBN provides an infrastructure for making genomic samples discoverable and accessible.
While respecting national law, GGBN requires that its members comply with the provisions of the Nagoya-protocol. Thus researchers, collection-holding institutions, and networks should adopt a common Best Practice approach to manage ABS, as has been developed by GGBN. A Code of Conduct; recommendations for implementing the Code of Conduct (the Best Practices), and implementation tools, such as standard Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) and mandatory and recommended data fields in collection databases, are tools which will aid compliance. This talk provides an overview of GGBN and comprises updates on GGBN’s best practices on ABS and the Nagoya Protocol, with examples of their use and applicability.
Management and GGBN publishing of tissue and DNA extract data through Specify software
Authors: Bentley Andrew 
Published: July 2018

Due to the recent establishment of the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) data portal, we have extended Specify collections management software (http://www.sustain.specifysoftware.org/) to more effectively manage, publish, and integrate tissue and DNA extract data by adding support for the GGBN data schema. Specify’s database design now includes a number of data fields and tables proscribed in GGBN standard vocabularies. We also realigned some of the underlying table relationships to address the needs of specimen curation and collection transactions for extract and tissue samples. Specify now also supports “Next Generation” sequencing metadata with fields to record NCBI SRA ID numbers for web-linking tissue and extract metadata to entries in the NCBI SRA databases.
With the ongoing evolution of the TDWG Darwin Core (DwC) standard for specimen data exchange, we generalized Specify 7’s data publishing capabilities to export collections data to any DwC or other standards-based, exchange schema. This generic, external schema mapping capability enables Specify collections to design and map data packages to integrate their data with any community aggregator or collaborative project database based on Darwin Core or other community standard-based format. The development of these versatile new integration capabilities was in collaboration with, and through financial support from GGBN. This talk will highlight these changes in the context of delivery of museum tissue and extract data records to the GGBN data portal for aggregation.
La transformation de la notion de frontière dans l’Union européenne
Authors: Benlolo Carabot Myriam 
Published: July 2018

L’Union européenne entretient avec les frontières une relation ambivalente. Dans l’« espace sans frontières intérieures », l’Union utilise la frontière non pour borner sa compétence, à l’instar de l’État, mais pour la justifier. C’est en effet le franchissement de la frontière qui permet la réalisation de l’espace préconisé. La formalisation progressive et incertaine d’un « territoire » de l’Union marque une évolution importante quoique ambiguë quant à la conception de la frontière qui se développe dans cet ordre juridique singulier.
The theological ethics of human enhancement: Genetic engineering, robotics and nanotechnology
Authors: Kotze Manitza 
Published: July 2018

The recent advances made by biotechnology have been swift and sundry. Technological developments seem to happen sooner than they can be ethically reflected upon. One such trend is the endeavours launched to try and enhance human beings and what it means to be human with movements such as transhumanism, advocating strongly that we should overcome our natural limitations by any means available. With both critics and advocates utilising the expression ‘playing God’, the question of human enhancement is one in which the interplay between church and society comes compellingly to the fore. In this contribution, I wish to examine the bioethical challenges that technologies such as genetic engineering, robotics and nanotechnology raise, specifically from a theological perspective on human enhancement and indicating some paths that future research might take. Christian anthropological views on what it means to be human, especially to be created imago Dei [to the image of God] will provide the doctrinal and theological support to this contemplation.
