AbstractThe photostimulated adsorption of glucose oxidase (GOx) on the surface of single-crystalline Si wafers with an amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer was examined. Estimation of the difference between the surface coverage by GOx molecules deposited under illumination and in the dark showed that this value increased for the structures with a-Si layer by a factor of 2.5 in the case of n -Si and by a factor of 1.5 in the case of p -Si. It is revealed that the n -Si/a-Si structures can be used for preliminary photostimulation of the GOx adsorption process.

Published: December 2018

This paper examines about the dynamics of youth in a political party in Malang, East Java. The proliferation of young people and political parties give us an important picture, especially in the middle of the political situation in Indonesia which is getting negative. Instead of become apathetic, the youth are joined actively in the context of practical politics. A political party that should be an inclusive place for anyone in it (including those of young people) precisely do exclucivity by the others. Some youth who come from minority group especially based on race, class, and gender have experience about discrimination by some people in that party. Using qualitative method with biography approach, there are 3 key informants who will told about their narration related to exclucivity by some people in the political party. Although these youth cadres have experience about racism, class, or gender discrimination, they still seem to be trying to survive and instead fight with in their own way. For these youth the tendency of discrimination must be opposed from within the party because they assume that as a young generation have enough capital to change the future of the party for a better way.

The development of science and technology encourages most people to follow the changes that occur in the world including the use of the internet as a daily necessity. The internet has become inherent in human life, especially in the millennial generation today because it makes it easier to communicate and exchange information, including in Indonesia. However, the impact caused in the use of social media is not always realized by the user so that it can lead to something that is not desired. Therefore, this study aims to determine how the impact of the use of social media affects the civic disposition of users, especially the millennial generation. The research approach used is a qualitative research approach with descriptive research methods. The researcher collected data through observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The results of the study indicate that social media can support the strengthening of national integration because of some of its functions. The culture of mutual cooperation and the love of the country can grow and develop in the community, especially social media users. Then the researcher gave recommendations based on the findings of the research, namely the need for an anticipatory and selective attitude for all parties, especially social media users and other interested parties.

Published: December 2018

There are evidences of 22 past tsunamis generated in the Black Sea area. Shabla area is the most dangerous for the Romanian shoreline and triggered past high magnitude earthquakes and tsunamis. According to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) data base, 3 important events occurred in Shabla: the most recent, on 31st of March 1901, an earthquake of magnitude 7.2 triggered waves of 5 m, other sources estimating 2.5 - 3 m; the oldest documented event, in the1stCentury BC, in Bisone area, and the third one, year 543 AC, when a 7.5 magnitude earthquake generated tsunami waves of 2 - 4 m.
Tsunami modeling was accomplished for Shabla area using two software, Tsunami Analysis Tool (TAT) and TRIDEC Cloud, and past earthquake parameters (location, depth, focal mechanism). A comparison between the results of the two software was accomplished, for the same input parameters: magnitudes of 7, 7.2, 7.5 and 8, depths of 5, 10 and 30 km and 5 fault plane solutions. The worst case scenario with TRIDEC software displays waves of maximum 2.62 m in Varna, for a magnitude 8 and a depth of 5 km, with 0.32 m in Constanta; the worst case using TAT software shows maximum waves of 4.3 m in Kamen Bryag, with 4Romanian locations affected (2 m waves in Costinesti). Moderate waves are given by scenarios using magnitude 7.5, with 0.6 - 0.8 m heights. For lower magnitudes (7 - 7.2), the modeling estimates very low waves, 0.2 - 0.4 m.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess proportionate mortality ratios (PMRs) for suicide among male and female US veterinarians from 1979 through 2015.
DESIGN PMR study.
SAMPLE Death records for 11,620 veterinarians.
PROCEDURES Information for veterinarians who died during 1979 through 2015 was obtained from AVMA obituary and life insurance databases and submitted to a centralized database of US death records to obtain underlying causes of death. Decedent data that met records-matching criteria were imported into a software program for calculation of PMRs for suicide stratified by sex and indirectly standardized for age, race, and 5-year calendar period with 95% confidence intervals.
RESULTS 398 deaths resulted from suicide; 326 (82%) decedents were male, 72 (18%) were female, and most (298 [75%]) were ≤ 65 years of age. The PMRs for suicide for all veterinarian decedents (2.1 and 3.5 for males and females, respectively), those in clinical positions (2.2 and 3.4 for males and females, respectively), and those in nonclinical positions (1.8 and 5.0 for males and females, respectively) were significantly higher than for the general US population. Among female veterinarians, the percentage of deaths by suicide was stable from 2000 until the end of the study, but the number of such deaths subjectively increased with each 5-year period.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results of the study indicated that PMRs for suicide of female as well as male veterinarians were higher than for the general population. These data may help to inform stakeholders in the creation and implementation of suicide prevention strategies designed for veterinarians.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding heartworms (Dirofilaria immitis) and mosquito vectors among residents (dog owners and non-dog owners) in 2 neighborhoods in Florida and to perform entomological surveys of mosquito species in these neighborhoods and identify mosquito species infected with heartworm.
DESIGN Cross-sectional study.
SAMPLE 2,572 mosquitoes and 96 residents of 2 northern Florida communities.
PROCEDURES A 32-item questionnaire was orally administered to a convenience sample of community residents to collect information on their knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding heartworms. Afterward, mosquito larvae were collected from the respondents' properties and adult mosquitoes were collected in both communities from surrounding wooded areas and residences of respondents. Mosquito species distribution and D immitis infection rates were determined.
RESULTS Many residents (59% [57/96]) were unaware that mosquitoes transmit heartworms. Compared with non-dog owners, dog owners were significantly more likely to know about mosquito transmission, be concerned about heartworms, accurately estimate cost of treatment, and demonstrate willingness to pay for treatment. Most owners (71% [47/66]) administered heartworm preventives; those who did not cited lack of risk awareness, and cost was the least common reason. Of 28 mosquito species collected, Anopheles quadrimaculatus, Culex erraticus, Culex nigripalpus, Coquillettidia perturbans, Culiseta inornata, Aedes albopictus, and Aedes aegypti were positive for D immitis infection.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Findings suggested that improved veterinary and public health messaging regarding the role of mosquitoes as vectors, higher cost of heartworm treatment versus prevention, and mosquito reduction and avoidance methods is needed.
Activated carbons by zinc chloride activation for dye removal – a commentary
Authors: Hock Pua Eng , Zaini Muhammad Abbas Ahmad 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Zinc chloride is a commonly used activator in chemical activation of activated carbon. Various carbonaceous materials have been studied as potential source of activated carbon. The operating conditions are manipulated with attention to improve the properties and performance of activated carbon in the adsorption of water pollutants. However, the generalized attributes of zinc chloride activation in relation to the adsorptive performance of activated carbon are not well documented in much of published literature. Therefore, the present work is aimed to highlight the activation strategies and mechanisms of zinc chloride activation of activated carbon. The roles of impregnation ratio, period of activation and temperature are discussed to offer some insight into textural characteristics of activated carbon. The case studies on methylene blue adsorption are integrated to shed light on the external factors affecting the adsorption.

Published: December 2018

Abstract
Arsenic (As) is metalloid, naturally present in the environment but also introduced by human activities. It is toxic and carcinogenic and its exposure to low or high concentrations can be fatal to human health. Arsenic contamination in drinking water threatens more than 150 million peoples all over the world. Therefore, treatment of As contaminated water is of unquestionable importance. The present review begins with an overview of As chemistry, distribution and toxicity, which are relevant aspects to understand and develop remediation techniques. The most common As removal processes (chemical precipitation, adsorption, ion exchange, membrane filtration, phytoremediation and electrocoagulation) are presented with discussion of their advantages, drawbacks and the main recent achievements.

Abstract
In this work, drying of tomato slices was studied in a laboratory scale batch dryer working at conditions specific for geographical locations with low ambient pressure and low relative humidity of air. Tomato is a perishable farm product with high moisture content. Despite their high value, tomatoes are subjected to wastage and spoilage during their seasonal period; to last longer after harvested, they need to be treated by drying. Drying is one of the most widely used methods of tomato preserving for a longer period of time. This study involves experimental work on tomatoes drying in a tray laboratory batch dryer with the dimensions of (490 × 330 × 310) mm, a load cell-force sensor (range: 0–5 kg), fan (speed: 0–2500 rpm), air flow sensor (0–150 l/min) and a temperature and humidity monitoring system. This study was aimed at the development of a suitable drying method for the production of dehydrated agricultural products under specific air properties and climate conditions such as low ambient pressure and low relative humidity. During the experiment, the average ambient pressure was 82 kPa, and the average relative humidity of air was 20 %. Drying characteristics of tomato slices were determined at three temperature levels, namely: 50 °C, 60 °C and 70 °C,and three air flow rates: 30 l/s, 40 l/s and 50 l/s, for each temperature level. In this study, the effect of temperature, air flow rate, and ambient conditions on the drying rate of tomato slices were studied. The results indicate that during the experiments, tomatoes were dried to the final moisture content of 32.2 % from 92 %. Drying time at 50 °C, 60 °C and 70°C, and air flow of 30 l/s was 17.80 h, 15.80 h, and 14.08 h, respectively. For the air flow rate of 40 l/s, the drying time was 15.0 h, 12.9 h and 11.7 h and for the air flow rate of 50 l/s, the drying time of tomato slices was 14.0 h, 11.6 h and 10.2 h, respectively.
Design of operational temperature for immobilized glucose isomerise using an accelerated inactivation method
Authors: Illeová Viera , Polakovič Milan 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Thermal inactivation of immobilized glucose isomerase in a concentrated glucose solution was investigated in the batch mode and temperature range of 83–95 °C, which is substantially higher than the temperature used in the industrial production of high-fructose corn syrup. Simultaneous evaluation of all inactivation data showed that first-order kinetics with the Arrhenius temperature dependence of the rate constant provided a good approximation of the biocatalyst stability under the investigated conditions. The model parameters were then used to predict the operational temperature for this biocatalyst in the production of high-fructose corn syrup based on the set operational life-time of the biocatalyst. The simulation predicted a window of operational temperature of 60–65 °C, which corresponds very well with the industrial applications of this biocatalyst. This observation demonstrates that the multi-temperature method of enzyme inactivation can provide a good estimate of biocatalyst process stability and is thus a useful tool in the development of biocatalytic processes.
Comparative Assessment of uNGAL, uNAG and Cystatin C As Early Biomarkers in Renal Post-Transplant Patients
Authors: Nikolov G. , Boncheva M. , Gruev T. , Trajkovska K. T. , Kostovska I. 
Published: December 2018

Abstract
Urinary neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (uNGAL), urinary N-acetyl-bd-glucosaminidase (NAG), urinary α1-microglobulin/creatinine ratio and cystatin C have been suggested as potential early markers of delayed graft function (DGF) following kidney transplantation. We conducted a prospective study in 50 consecutive kidney transplant recipients to evaluate serial changes of these biomarkers within the first week after transplantation and assess their performance in predicting DGF (dialysis requirement during initial post-transplant week) and graft function throughout the first year. Urine samples were collected on post-transplantation days 0, 1, 2, 4, and 7. Statistical analysis: Linear mixed and multivariable regression models, receiver-operating characteristic (ROC), and areas under ROC curves were used. At all-time points, mean urinary NGAL levels were significantly higher in patients developing DGF. Shortly after transplantation (3-6 h), uNGAL and uNAG values were higher in DGF recipients (on average +242 ng/mL; NAG – 6.8 U/mmol creatinine, considering mean dialysis time of 4.1 years) and rose further in the following days, contrasting with prompt function recipients. On Day-1 uNGAL levels accurately predicted DGF (AUC-ROC = 0.93), with a performance higher than serum creatinine (AUC-ROC = 0.76), and similar to cystatin C (AUC-ROC = 0.95). Multivariable analyses revealed that uNGAL levels at days 4 and 7 were strongly associated with one-year serum creatinine level. Urinary NGAL, serum cystatin C is an early marker of graft injury and is independently associated with dialysis requirement within one week after transplantation and one-year graft function.

Abstract
Provision of quality health services to population of the rural areas with limited access to dental treatment and educating dental students in high standard of professional conduct when delivering health services to the population, represents the main reason for the foundation of a dental college in an area like Mangalore. The purpose of this study was to assess the satisfaction of patients visiting the dental college clinics. A cross-sectional study was conducted between May 1 and July 31, 2017. A questionnaire, covering 4 items: patient-dentist relationship; efficiency of the general clinic; patients perception of dental care quality; college healthcare opinion, was distributed to 400 patients visiting the dental clinic. Data were treated statistically using overall percentage distributions and Fisher exact test. The mean percentage of agreement for the 4 items was 85.86 ± 24.51% denoting a high level of satisfaction. Fisher exact test showed (p < 0.01) statistically important difference between first time and multiple time visitors answers. Majority of the patients were satisfied with the clinical settings and the benefits of the fast delivered treatment. The quality of the services was appreciated by the majority of visitors. The attitude of the providers of healthcare was perceived as very friendly and gentle. The assessment of patients’ contentment and perception of healthcare services could be an efficient tool to evaluate the overall activity of an educational healthcare institution.
