It was shown that the scent and taste of tea are determined by the level of protein and amino acid. Certainly, protoingens that make up most part of proteins are noted among amino acids. All of them are considered L-shaped. Green tea mostly consists of proteins. Even the high level protein doesn’t adversely impact the quality of tea yet that of black tea might be negatively influenced by that. Also, its taste will also be worsened by that.As a result of analysis 16 amino acids and 8 unsubstituted substance was found. The main part of amino acid is taken by teanin. It take 41.3% of Azerbaijan-1, 38.8% of Kolxida types respectively. In all stages of tea leaf processing the decrease of teanin and increase of glutamin is witnessed. Also, the loss of teanin happens during the purification (by 34%) and the fading stages.As a result of the work carried out, it has been found that the size of the tea leaf particle, the temperature and the extraction time influence the extraction of the theanine. The optimum are: the size of the tea leaf particle is 200–450 mkm, the extraction temperature is 80–85 °C, and the extraction time is 20–25 minutes.

Dimeric products of the oxidation of flavonoids (including most abundant of them – quercetin) are observed rather often even in the dilute aqueous solutions. For explaining the formation of such products the free-radical and electrochemical oxidation of simpler substrate – 4-isopropyl phenol – is considered. It is shown that the products of these processes correspond with the formation of quinone methide intermediate. The formation of similar intermediates seems to be possible at the oxidation of natural flavonoids. The principal chemical property of quinone methides is conjugated addition of various nucleophylic reagents, including water, as well as the initial phenolic compounds. Just this reaction allows explaining the formation of dimeric oxidation products of both 4-isopropyl phenol and flavonoids.For identification of 4-isopropyl phenol oxidation products the technique of HPLC-MS-MS (mass numbers of most abundant signals of mass spectra) combined with evaluations of hydrophobicity factors and ground state energies of supposed reaction products were used.

The paper discusses the joint effect of cytokine 6-BAP and different spectra when illuminated by LEDs on the morphological parameters of growth, development and the content of phenolic compounds in plants of St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) of two genotypes – wild and cultivated (cultivar Zolotodolinskiy) – in conditions of in vitro cultivation.It is shown that the light of different spectral composition and the hormonal composition of medium influences the morphogenesis, the productivity of biomass and the synthesis of phenolic compounds by plants under in vitro cultivation conditions.It is established that the combination of the light spectrum, and the hormonal composition of nutrient medium may substantially increase the content of soluble phenolic compounds in both wild and cultural genotypes of Hypericum.The analysis of the obtained results shows a direct correlation dependence of the content of phenolic compounds on the number of shoots and their mass. The correlation between the number of shoots and the content of phenolic compounds has a direct character and strongly expressed.

Specific and most representative group of biologically active substances of peat are humic acid (HA) and bitumen, which is a complex mixture of high molecular weight and polyfunctional alicyclic compounds, hydroaromatic, aromatic and heterocyclic nature. Preparations from HA and bitumen are used in medicine and veterinary medicine. However, the spectrum of peat BAS is quite wide and heterogeneous in individual peatlands and depends of peat formation of the swamp, the depth of peat deposit, botanical composition and other factors. The identification of the highest quality raw material base for the production of specific drugs requires the study of the organic composition of peat, including HA and bitumen on all swamp depth. The article substantiates the need to identify the highest quality raw material base (peat deposit or combinations peat deposits) for the production of specific products. On the example of the peat deposit Gazoprovodnoe, presents the results of the analysis of HA and bitumens throughout the profile of the peat deposit and establishes the possibility of using peat resources of this peat deposit in the production of a wide range of drugs for medical purposes and household chemicals.
Nonlinear Sherman-type inequalities
Authors: Niezgoda Marek 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
An important class of Schur-convex functions
is generated by convex functions
via the well-known Hardy–Littlewood–Pólya–Karamata inequality.
Sherman’s inequality is a natural generalization of the HLPK inequality.
It can be viewed as a comparison of two special inner product expressions
induced by a convex function of one variable.
In the present note,
we extend the Sherman inequality
from the (bilinear) inner product
to a (nonlinear) map of two vectorial variables
satisfying the Leon–Proschan condition.
Some applications are shown
for directional derivatives and gradients of Schur-convex functions.
Der Preis der Überlieferungsnähe. Zur neuen Ausgabe der ›Virginal‹
Authors: Kragl Florian 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
With respect to the new edition of the ›Virginal‹ and looking back on recent philological practice in the field of Medieval German studies, the article discusses the paradigm of the ›überlieferungsgeschichtliche Edition‹. It is argued that the potential and the value of an ›überlieferungsgeschichtliche Edition‹ vary substantially, depending on the research interest of the user/reader as well as on the characteristics of the transmission of the text. Generally speaking, the ›überlieferungsgeschichtliche Edition‹ should by no means be regarded as the philological joker as which it is commonly seen. The consequences which arise from the ›Gestalt‹ of an edition for literary history are reflected with regards to the text family usually referred to as ›aventiurehafte Dietrichepik‹.
“Closing the loop”: a mixed-methods study about resident learning from outcome feedback after patient handoffs
Authors: Shenvi Edna C. , Feupe Stephanie Feudjio , Yang Hai , El-Kareh Robert 
Published: September 2018

Abstract

Background
Learning patient outcomes is recognized as crucial for ongoing refinement of clinical decision-making, but is often difficult in fragmented care with frequent handoffs. Data on resident habits of seeking outcome feedback after handoffs are lacking.

Methods
We performed a mixed-methods study including (1) an analysis of chart re-access rates after handoffs performed using access logs of the electronic health record (EHR); and (2) a web-based survey sent to internal medicine (IM) and emergency medicine (EM) residents about their habits of and barriers to learning the outcomes of patients after they have handed them off to other teams.

Results
Residents on ward rotations were often able to re-access charts of patients after handoffs, but those on EM or night admitting rotations did so <5% of the time. Among residents surveyed, only a minority stated that they frequently find out the outcomes of patients they have handed off, although learning outcomes was important to both their education and job satisfaction. Most were not satisfied with current systems of learning outcomes of patients after handoffs, citing too little time and lack of reliable patient tracking systems as the main barriers.

Conclusions
Despite perceived importance of learning outcomes after handoffs, residents cite difficulty with obtaining such information. Systematically providing feedback on patient outcomes would meet a recognized need among physicians in training.

Performance Evaluation of Novel Dynamic Data Replication Algorithm under Optical Burst Switching
Authors: Singh Rekh Nath , Singh Raghuraj 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
The database replication mechanism ensures the duplication of data from one geographical location to another. In recent past, PDDRA (pre-fetching-based dynamic data replication algorithm) is investigated heavily under various classes of request arrivals. The request arriving at a particular server for replication depends on many factors such as bandwidth supported by link, its geographical location and routing algorithms. The number of served requests depends on the processing speed and buffering capacity of a particular server. If a request cannot be served at the server, it is dropped. If a bunch of requests arrive at a server, then traffic modelled as bursty traffic. The objective of this paper is to investigate the performance of dynamic replication algorithm under bursty request arrival. In a similar context, a mathematical model is detailed for the estimation of request burst length, such that both buffering capacity and transmission delay can be kept minimal. Finally, simulation results are present to evaluate the fraction of successful request under diverse conditions.
A pentadic model of semiotic analysis
Authors: Griffin Jonathan 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Kenneth Burke’s dramatistic pentad can be understood as a pentadic model of semiotic analysis. Dyadic, triadic, and other relational models offer valuable benefits, but Burke’s pentad is especially useful and relevant given its focus on both action and motive/purpose. Here we will look in more detail at some of these benefits of Burke’s schema understood in this semiotic light, and then we’ll apply the model to a few examples of object analysis. If it is true that Burke’s pentad works in this way as well as we think it does, then fruitful ground exists here for other researchers as well, particularly since Burke’s pentadic model features much less in the field of semiotics proper than do more common dyadic and triadic based models.
Internet users’ neutralization of the morality of advertisement blocking
Authors: Coles Bryn Alexander 
Published: September 2018

Abstract
Internet revenue is currently threatened by an increase in the use of advertisement blocking software. This presents a moral problem for Internet users, as by blocking advertisements, they deprive content creators of income for their work.
Four hundred and thirty-six comments taken from three naturally occurring online discussions were analyzed from a discursive psychological perspective to explore how posters engage with online debates concerning the morality of blocking advertisements.
Posters were found to orientate to a moral dimension against blocking online advertisements. They sought to manage this moral dimension by drawing upon the neutralization techniques of denial of responsibility, denial of injury, condemnation of the condemners, and appeals to higher loyalty. Two aspects of neutralization discourse have also been shown to be used in a novel manner. Rather than denying the victim, Internet users adopt the subject position of “victim” for themselves. Rather than denying injury, they present themselves as injured by online advertising.
Posters here present blocking online advertisements as being in their own best interests. In order to change this behavior, then, advertisers must reposition themselves with consumers, to orientate to the presence of advertising online as mutually beneficial, rather than parasitic.
A Laboratory Investigation of Factors Influencing the Electrical Resistivity of Different Soil Types

Published: September 2018

Abstract
Field-based electrical resistivity methods offer a nondestructive and rapid means to collect continuous subsurface data. As such, these types of geophysical methods are becoming increasingly popular tools for geotechnical engineers; however, it is challenging to derive geotechnical information, such as soil type, density, and water content, from the field measurements. Laboratory-based soil-box resistivity tests, such as AASHTO T 288-12, Standard Method of Test for Determining Minimum Laboratory Soil Resistivity, are also being used to examine the electrical resistivity of soils; however, it is unclear how density and a number of other factors may affect the results. A laboratory geophysical investigation was carried out to gain a better understanding of the parameters that affect the electrical resistivity of soils and to improve estimates of soil group classifications based on resistivity measurements. Nine different benchmark soils were tested, representing most of the major soil groups according to the unified soil classification system. The effects of water mineralization, water content, degree of saturation, density, and temperature on the measured electrical resistivity of the soils were investigated. The parameters that were found to be most effective in the identification of soil type are bulk density and degree of saturation. While the general trend between saturation and resistivity is known, results indicate that resistivity values reach a lower threshold at around 60 % saturation and that density and water mineralization become less influential as the saturation increases above this threshold. Regardless of the density or saturation, temperature was found to be an important parameter and should be monitored and corrected for in laboratory tests such as AASHTO T 288-12 when results are compared to field data. The influence of particle size and obtaining representative specimens in laboratory soil box testing were also shown to be important.
The Time Course of Target Template Activation Processes during Preparation for Visual Search
Authors: Grubert Anna , Eimer Martin 
Published: September 2018

Search for target objects in visual scenes is guided by mental representations of target features (attentional templates). However, it is unknown when such templates are activated during each search episode and whether this can be controlled by temporal expectations. We used electrophysiological measures to track search template activation processes in real time. In three experiments, female and male humans searched for a color-defined target object in search displays where targets were accompanied by distractors in different nontarget colors. Brief task-irrelevant color singleton probes that matched the target template were flashed rapidly (every 200 ms) throughout each block. Probes presented at times when the target template is active should capture attention, whereas probes presented at other times should not. To assess this, N2pc components were measured as markers of attentional capture, separately for probes at each successive temporal position between two search displays. Results demonstrated that search templates were active from ∼1000 ms before the arrival of the next search display, and were deactivated after each search episode, even when the preceding search display did not contain a target object. Templates were activated later when the predictable interval between search displays was increased. Results demonstrate that search templates are not continuously active but are transiently activated during the preparation for each new search episode. These activation states are regulated in a top-down fashion by temporal expectations about when an attentional template will become task-relevant.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTIt is often assumed that observers prepare for a visual search task by activating mental representations of search target objects (attentional templates). However, the time course of such template activation processes is completely unknown. By using a new sequential probe presentation technique and electrophysiological measures of attentional processing, we demonstrate that target templates are rapidly activated and deactivated before and after each successive search display, and that these template activation states are tuned to observers' temporal expectations. These results provide novel insights into the temporal dynamics of cognitive control processes in visual attention. They show that attentional templates for visual search are preparatory states that are activated in a transient fashion before each new search episode.
Feature-Specific Awake Reactivation in Human V1 after Visual Training

Published: September 2018

Brain activity patterns exhibited during task performance have been shown to spontaneously reemerge in the following restful awake state. Such “awake reactivation” has been observed across higher-order cortex for complex images or associations. However, it is still unclear whether the reactivation extends to primary sensory areas that encode simple stimulus features. To address this question, we trained human subjects from both sexes on a particular visual feature (Gabor orientation) and tested whether this feature will be reactivated immediately after training. We found robust reactivation in human V1 that lasted for at least 8 min after training offset. This effect was not present in higher retinotopic areas, such as V2, V3, V3A, or V4v. Further analyses suggested that the amount of awake reactivation was related to the amount of performance improvement on the visual task. These results demonstrate that awake reactivation extends beyond higher-order areas and also occurs in early sensory cortex.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTHow do we acquire new memories and skills? New information is known to be consolidated during offline periods of rest. Recent studies suggest that a critical process during this period of consolidation is the spontaneous reactivation of previously experienced patterns of neural activity. However, research in humans has mostly examined such reactivation processes in higher-order cortex. Here we show that awake reactivation occurs even in the primary visual cortex V1 and that this reactivation is related to the amount of behavioral learning. These results pinpoint awake reactivation as a process that likely occurs across the entire human brain and could play an integral role in memory consolidation.

We identifySox14as an exclusive marker of inhibitory projection neurons in the lateral and interposed, but not the medial, cerebellar nuclei.Sox14+neurons make up ∼80% ofGad1+neurons in these nuclei and are indistinguishable by soma size from other inhibitory neurons. AllSox14+neurons of the lateral and interposed cerebellar nuclei are generated at approximately E10/10.5 and extend long-range, predominantly contralateral projections to the inferior olive. A smallSox14+population in the adjacent vestibular nucleus “Y” sends an ipsilateral projection to the oculomotor nucleus. CerebellarSox14+and glutamatergic projection neurons assemble in non-overlapping populations at the nuclear transition zone, and their integration into a coherent nucleus depends onSox14function. Targeted ablation ofSox14+cells by conditional viral expression of diphtheria toxin leads to significantly impaired motor learning. Contrary to expectations, associative learning is unaffected by unilateralSox14+neuron elimination in the interposed and lateral nuclei.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThe cerebellar nuclei are central to cerebellar function, yet how they modulate and process cerebellar inputs and outputs is still primarily unknown. Our study gives a direct insight into how nucleo-olivary projection neurons are generated, their projections, and their function in an intact behaving mouse. These neurons play a critical conceptual role in all models of cerebellar function, and this study represents the first specific analysis of their molecular identity and function and offers a powerful model for future investigation of cerebellar function in motor control and learning.
