Abstract
In traditional large-scale industrial applications of solvent extraction, there are some limitations such as low extraction efficiency, emulsification, co-extraction, and potential safety hazards. Recently, the application of microfluidic technology in solvent extraction has been dedicated to avoid the above problems effectively. However, manufacturing microchannels becomes a key problem before the application of such a new technology. In this article, the design and fabrication of a “Y”-shaped microreactor by using a three-dimensional (3D) printer, and its feasibility for extraction and separation, is illustrated. The extraction performance of a “Y”-shaped microreactor was investigated by carrying out the extraction of In3+ and Fe3+ from a sulfate solution under different experimental conditions. When the residence time was 210 s, the volume fraction of extractant (D2EHPA) was 30%, and the initial pH value of the aqueous solution was 0.7, the extraction rate of In3+ and the separation coefficient βIn/Fe were 98.07% and 1593, respectively. Remarkably, the handling capacity of the 3D-printed “Y” microreactor presented in this work with a channel length of 36 mm was superior, whereas the extraction rate of In3+ was very close to that of the previously reported microchip with a channel length of 120 mm.

Authors: Vedmedeva K.V. 
Published: February 2019

Abstract
Aim of our research was to study the genetic diversity and establish the inheritance of top branching trait in the collection of 34 sunflower lines of the Institute of Oilseed Crops of the NAAS.
Experiments were carried out in 2005–2016 according to classical cultivation methods, using manual castration, crossings, forced self-pollinating, isolation and visual assessment of the first and second generation of obtained descendants. The statistical reliability of the obtained ratio was confirmed by calculating the Pearson’s chi-squared test.
Presence of two loci determining the inheritance of the branching trait in sunflower was established. In one locus, recessive alleles are responsible for manifestation of the branching trait. In the second locus, dominant alleles are responsible for the manifestation of the branching trait.
In 23 lines of sunflower, it was established that a recessive homozygote for one gene causes phenotypical top and full branching.
In 8 lines of the collection, full branching trait is due to the dominant allele of the gene. In the lines InK235, APS49, the presence of two genes was established, the dominant alleles of which determine full branching trait. In the APS56 line, full branching is controlled by the dominant alleles of three genes.

Published: February 2019

AbstractBackgroundA provisionary screening programme for 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD) was initiated in Beijing in 2014. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and the associated clinical characteristics of neonatal congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in Beijing and to provide evidence-based guidance for its application in CAH screening.MethodsLive birth newborns (n=44,360) were screened for CAH in Beijing from July 2014 to April 2018. The levels of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) in the blood were estimated using the time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay. Neonates with a positive result and a level >30 nmol/L of 17-OHP were called for a retest. CAH was diagnosed based on further laboratory findings combined with clinical signs, such as weight loss, feeding difficulties, skin pigmentation, and atypical genitalia. Through a review of medical records, the clinical findings including molecular data were reported.ResultsOf the 44,360 neonates screened, 280 cases were deemed positive. Of these, 203 neonates were recalled for further tests and six patients (three boys and three girls) were diagnosed with CAH. Five cases of classic salt-wasting and one case of simple virilising 21-OHD were identified. The incidence of CAH in Beijing was 1:7393. The most frequent 21-OHD mutation was c.293-13C/A>G.ConclusionsThe incidence of CAH in Beijing was higher than the national average. The results support the need for neonatal CAH screening in Beijing. This pilot study demonstrates the clinical characteristics of 21-OHD through newborn screening. Early detection and treatment through neonatal screening may reduce mortality rates and optimise developmental outcomes.
Effects of maternal obesity, excessive gestational weight gain and fetal macrosomia on the frequency of cesarean deliveries among migrant and non-migrant women – a prospective study
Authors: Breckenkamp Juergen , Razum Oliver , Henrich Wolfgang , Borde Theda , David Matthias 
Published: February 2019

Abstract

Background
Maternal obesity, excessive gestational weight gain and fetal macrosomia may affect the health of the mother and the newborn, and are associated with cesarean delivery. Pregnant women with a migration background have a higher risk of obesity but nevertheless a lower frequency of cesarean deliveries than women from the majority population. This study assesses which of these factors most influence the risk of a cesarean delivery and whether their prevalence can explain the lower cesarean rates in migrant women.

Methods
A total of 2256 migrant women and 2241 non-immigrant women subsequently delivering in three hospitals of Berlin/Germany participated. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the effects of obesity, excessive gestational weight gain and macrosomia on cesarean delivery. Standardized coefficients (STB) were used to rank the predictors.

Results
Obesity was more frequent in immigrant than among non-immigrant women. The mean gestational weight gain was independent of migration status. The frequency of macrosomia increased with maternal weight. Obesity and excessive gestational weight gain were the most important predictors of cesarean besides older age; fetal macrosomia played a much smaller role. Despite similar distributions of the three risk factors, the frequency of cesarean deliveries was lower in migrant than in non-immigrant women.

Conclusion
The presence of obesity and/or excessive gestational weight gain is associated with an increased risk of a cesarean delivery; fetal macrosomia does not increase the risk when obesity and weight gain are considered. The distribution of these risk factors is similar in migrant and non-immigrant women, so they cannot explain the lower frequency of cesarean deliveries in migrant women.
Polymorph-induced photosensitivity change in titanylphthalocyanine revealed by the charge transfer integral

Published: February 2019

Abstract
The crystal form of semiconductor materials is keenly correlated with the photosensitivity of optoelectronic devices. Thus, understanding the crystal form-dependent photosensitivity mechanism is critical. In this work, the microemulsion phase transfer method was adopted to prepare α- and β-titanylphthalocyanine (TiOPc NPs) with an average diameter of 35 nm. The photosensitivity (E
1/2) of α-TiOPc NPs was 2.73 times better than that of β-TiOPc NPs, which was characterized by photoconductors under the same measurement conditions. DFT was performed to explain the relationship between crystal form and photosensitivity by systematically calculating the charge transfer integrals for all possible dimers in the two different crystal forms. The hole and electron reorganization energies of TiOPc were respectively calculated to be 53.5 and 271.5 meV, revealing TiOPc to be a typical p-type semiconductor. The calculated total hole transfer mobility (μ
+) ratio (2.83) of α- to β-TiOPc was almost identical to the experimental E
1/2 ratio (2.73) and the calculated photogeneration quantum efficiency (η
e-h) ratio (2.23). In addition, the optimum hole transfer routes in the crystal of α- and β-TiOPc were all along with the [1 0 0] crystal orientation, which was determined by the calculated μ
+. A high charge transfer mobility leads to a high photosensitive TiOPc crystal. Consequently, these results indicate that the selected theoretical calculation method is reasonable for indirectly explaining the relationship between crystal form and photosensitivity. The TiOPc molecular solid-state arrangements, namely, the crystal forms of TiOPc, have a strong influence on the charge transport behavior, which in turn, affects its photosensitivity.

Published: February 2019

Abstract
The properties of the materials are intimately related to the nature of the chemical bond. Research to explain the peculiarities of superionic materials by focusing on the bonding character of the materials is presented. In particular, a brief review of some fundamental aspects of superionic conductors is given based on the talk presented at “Solid State Chemistry 2018, Pardubice” in addition to some new results related to the subject. Specifically, the topics on bond fluctuation model of ionic conductors, the role of medium range structure in the ionic conductivity, bonding aspects of non-Arrhenius ionic conductivity and elastic properties of ionic conductors are discussed. Key concepts that are gained from these studies is stressed, such as the importance of the coexistence of different types of bonding, and the role of medium range structure in glasses for efficient ionic transport in solids. These concepts could help the development of new materials.

Zusammenfassung
Breitbandig durchstimmbare Infrarotstrahlung im mittleren Wellenlängenbereich von etwa 3 bis 10 µm bzw. 1000 bis 3200 Wellenzahlen kann effizient zur Spektroskopie gasförmiger, flüssiger oder fester Stoffe und Gemische verwendet werden. In diesem Beitrag wird ein neuartiges quasi-statisches mikro-opto-elektro-mechanisches (MOEMS) Gitter zur spektralen Durchstimmung einer Infrarotlichtquelle auf Basis eines Quantenkaskadenlasers (QCL) vorgestellt. Das Konzept vereint die Vorteile breitbandiger Quellen mit denen kohärenter Laserquellen in einem miniaturisierten Aufbau. Das quasi-statische Antriebsprinzip erlaubt im Gegensatz zur resonanten Bewegung das Scannen mit vorgegebenen Trajektorien und einstellbarer Geschwindigkeiten und damit eine höhere spektrale Auflösung. Zur Stabilisierung der Bewegung wird MOEMS-Bauelement mittels integrierter Positionssensoren geregelt. Dieser Beitrag stellt die dynamischen Eigenschaften eines MOEMS-Mikrospiegels mit integriertem Beugungsgitter, sowie die damit gewonnenen experimentellen Ergebnisse beim Durchstimmen eines QCL im Bereich von 4150 bis 4600 nm Wellenlänge vor.

Abstract
The presented paper is about the evaluation of products in digital styling formats, such as tutorials, hauls and tops&flops. Therein, we provide an approach to analyze specific para-interactive processes specifically addressing a teenage audience. Semiotic as well as interactional approaches are considered to demonstrate, based on video material, how YouTube influencers use multimodal potentials of various text types para-interactively to integrate their (female) recipients into the video itself. This phenomenon leads to the fact, that the audience may not only share the perception of presented products, but also, the influencers’ evaluation.

Published: February 2019

Abstract
The thermal reaction of diatomic gold boride cation AuB+ with methane has been studied by using state-of-the-art mass spectrometry in conjunction with density functional theory calculations. The AuB+ ion can activate a methane molecule to produce exclusively the free hydrogen atom, an important intermediate in hydrocarbon transformation. This result is different from the reactivity of AuC+ and CuB+ counterparts with methane in previous studies. The AuC+ cation mainly transforms methane into ethylene. The CuB+ reaction system principally generates the free hydrogen atoms, but it also gives rise a portion of ethylene-like product H2B−CH2. The B atom of AuB+ is the active site to activate methane. The strong relativistic effect on gold plays an important role for the product selectivity. The mechanistic insights obtained from this study provide guidance for rational design of active sites with high product selectivity toward methane activation.

The practice of bankruptcy procedures for citizens in Russia showed their lack of effectiveness, which is due, among other things, the uncertainty of legal regulation of the issues of restoring their solvency. Objectives of the article are formation of a logically and scientifically based methodology for developing a plan for the restoration of citizens’ solvency, taking into account the financial and economic features of citizens’ activities and the requirements of legislation, theoretical substantiation of legal and economic criteria for the restoration of citizens’ solvency in order to improve the efficiency of bankruptcy rehabilitation procedures.According to the results of the study at the theoretical level author determinedthe essence of the restoration of the solvency of the citizendebtor, which allowed to formalize the legal and economic criteria for the restoration of their solvency. A methodology has been developed for developing a plan for the restoration of citizens' solvency. Author formulated proposals to improve the legal regulation of bankruptcy procedures of citizens, taking into account their financial and economic features.It was concluded that the plan to restore the solvency of citizens can be considered as a form of a contract between creditors and a debtor, significantly reducing the costs of opportunism and increasing the efficiency of bankruptcy procedures. The obtained results are of practical importance for the regulator and participants in bankruptcy proceedings with respect to citizens, as well as theoretical significance in terms of helping to contribute to the development of the theory of solvency of citizens.

Published: February 2019

Purpose of the study:This article aims to examine critically the roles of Muhammadiyah as one of the largest Islamic civil organizations in Indonesia in interpreting and praticing Islamic normative values, especially with regard to the empowerment of civil society after the fall of President Suharto’s New Order political regime in 1998.
Methodology:This study applies qualitative approach and descriptive analysis that aims to critically describe the roles of Muhammdiyah through its department of Majelis Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (abbreviated as: MPM) in interpreting and practicing Islamic values in the relation of civil society empowerment in the post Soeharto’s New Order regime era. Data is gathered from observation, interview with the MPM leaders, and document analysis. Other previous studies which are also included as the main sources of the study are conducted by Prijono (1996) and Harmsen (2008).
Main Findings and Novelty:The analysis produces some important findings: first, some of normative doctrines of Islam on the issue of society empowerment are reinterpreted. The resulted interpretation is different from classical interpretation and interpretive experiences in other Muslim world. The new interpretation focuses on Sūrah al-Māʿūn of the Qur’an (and some other related verses) and uses such interpretation as a theological ground and spirit for implementing societal empowerment visions and works. Second, the empowerment roles of Muhammadiyah through the Council (i.e. MPM) affirms the theory of civil society in Indonesia, which becomes a strategic partner of the government, whose development program fails engender social welfare and prosperity.
Applications of this study: This study can be useful formanyinterdiscipliner area such civil society, civil empowerment, sociology, and Islamic Studies.
