Authors: Dutra de Brito Max , De Alencar Machado Albuquerque Fernanda 
Published: February 2024

O município de Diamantina/MG recebeu, em 1999, o título de Patrimônio Cultural da Humanidade devido à sua riqueza histórica, cultural e natural. A cidade surgiu a partir do descobrimento das jazidas minerais pelos bandeirantes e, mesmo após o declínio da mineração do diamante, manteve-se com o apuro de uma vida social refinada por bons costumes advindos pelo gosto ao teatro, pela arte, também expressos na arquitetura e na música. Além da sua diversidade cultural existe ainda uma exuberância natural que se espalha pela região através dos rios, cachoeiras, grutas e fontes de águas termais. E nesse contexto, está inserida a Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri-UFVJM, criada inicialmente por Juscelino Kubitschek com a Faculdade de Odontologia de Diamantina-FAOD. Sendo assim, devido ao fato de uma significativa parcela dos alunos ingressantes não residir no município, percebeu-se a necessidade de apresentar a cidade e sua história, através de uma visita guiada, oportunizando o conhecimento e, consequentemente, o respeito a esse patrimônio cultural e natural. Nesse sentido, o presente trabalho tem a finalidade de proporcionar ao aluno ingressante na Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri-UFVJM, em Diamantina/MG, o conhecimento sobre a história e o patrimônio da cidade através de um tour cultural no centro histórico, por meio de um projeto de extensão em parceria com a pró-reitoria. A forma metodológica decorre da revisão de literatura e documental sobre patrimônio, educação patrimonial e temas afins, como também de uma pesquisa quali-quantitativa através da aplicação de um questionário semiaberto com o objetivo de acompanhar a evolução com relação à participação e interesse dos alunos e de compreender a satisfação e a efetividade do projeto. Dessa forma, o estudo sugere a necessidade de apresentar o projeto de extensão “Giro cultural: conhecendo o nosso patrimônio” através da história de Diamantina e do conhecimento de seus principais atrativos turísticos, bem como a infraestrutura da cidade no que se refere aos hospitais, postos de saúde, serviços públicos dentre outros que possam ser de necessidade e interesse do aluno, além de promover a integração da comunidade estudantil e dos calouros aliando ações de acolhimento e socialização. Por fim, percebe-se a efetividade da ação, tendo em vista o resultado positivo das avaliações quanto à iniciativa da proposta e a satisfação dos participantes pelo conhecimento adquirido através do tour cultural.

Authors: Kongsomart Boodsakorn , Kannari Naokatsu , Takarada Takayuki 
Published: February 2024

In this paper, the catalytic effects of two different biomass-derived ash catalysts, chicken dropping compost ash (CCA) and empty fruit bunch ash (EFBA) on the performance of CO2 gasification of Loy Yang brown coal (LY) char were studied. The CO2 gasification was done at temperatures between 650 to 800 oC. It was found that the reaction rate is strongly dependent on the CO2 gasification temperature and the carbon conversion increases by increasing the CO2 gasification temperature. By using LY mixed with 10 wt% of EFB ash (EFBA), the maximum char conversion of 1.0 with a high gasification rate was obtained when CO2 gasification was carried out at 800oC for 30 min. Finally, the EFBA is more efficient in catalytic activity compared to the CC ash (CCA) under the same conditions.

Published: February 2024

Xylose is the raw material for xylitol production which can be obtained through hydrolysis of agriculture waste. However, the presence of glucose in hydrolysate interferes in the process. Thin-film composite membrane developed through interfacial polymerization (IP) can be tailored for xylose separation through manipulation preparation conditions. In this study, the impact of curing conditions, specifically curing time was investigated on xylose separation. The thin-film composite (TFC) membrane was formed from IP between triethanolamine (TEOA) and tri-mesoyl chloride (TMC) on polyethersulfone support membrane. Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and contact angle measurement were performed to investigate the formation of thin-film. Evaluation of membrane performances, namely pure water flux, permeation flux, and xylose separation factor was used to evaluate the TFC membrane cured at a different time (2, 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes). A decrease in flux was observed when prolonged the curing time for TFC membrane. A minimum of 5 minutes curing time would be needed for the organic solvent to be evaporated from the membrane at 60 oC, but 15 minute curing time would have better xylose separation.

Increased MCHC*RDW-SD interaction values: indicators of neurological impairment in lead-poisoned children
Authors: Ying Qingji , Ye Mengsi , Zhang Tingting , Xia Zhaobo , Chen Huale 
Published: February 2024

Background
The neurotoxic effects of lead in children can have long-lasting and profound impacts on the developing nervous system. This study aimed to identify a reliable and easily accessible biomarker to monitor neurological impairment in lead-poisoned children.

Methods
We analyzed hematological data from 356 lead-poisoned children, comparing them with age and gender-matched healthy controls. Multivariate logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis were employed to identify and evaluate potential biomarkers for neurological damage.

Results
Significant changes in erythrocyte parameters were observed in lead-poisoned children. Upon further analysis, increased mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and red cell distribution width-standard deviation (RDW-SD) interaction values were found to be significantly associated with neurological impairment. The MCHC*RDW-SD interaction model demonstrated an AUC of 0.76, indicating its effectiveness in reflecting neurological damage. Additionally, the MCHC*RDW-SD Interaction value showed weak or no correlation with other erythrocyte parameters, suggesting its independence as an indicator.

Conclusion
Our findings propose the increased MCHC*RDW-SD interaction value as a robust and independent biomarker for detecting neurological impairment in lead-poisoned children. This underscores the potential of utilizing specific erythrocyte parameters for screening the neurotoxic effects of lead exposure in pediatric populations.
Abundance of termites important in tree-hollow formation in eucalypt forest in the Upper Blue Mountains, New South Wales, following seven years of extreme weather and mega-fires
Authors: Graham Michael , Smith Peter , Smith Judy 
Published: March 2024

ABSTRACT
This study has investigated the status of tree-hollow-forming termites in eucalypt forest in the Upper Blue Mountains, New South Wales, following seven years of extreme weather and mega-fires. Tree hollows are a critical denning and breeding resource for many fauna species. The general abundance of termites in this cool temperate area was low, with at least 65% of large eucalypts having no internal hollows and thus never having supported termites. There was evidence of a recent decline of at least 55% in the number of trees being actively worked by termites, based on the number of trees with no termites present but evidence of termite activity within the last five years. Despite this decline, hollow-forming termites were still present in at least 61% of the survey sites. Recovery could be expected to occur given adequate time and stable conditions. However, the increasing pace of climate change may not allow it. In this paper, we draw attention to the importance of hollow-forming termites and the existential threat that they face under on-going climate change. We hope that it will prompt more interest and research of this issue.

Study Design: Cross-sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: Dubai health authority clinics, between February and May 2023.
Methods: The sample size was 312; it was done through a cross-sectional study through a Google Forms questionnaire distributed among known cases of migraine who are more than 18 years of age attending Dubai Health Authority (DHA) clinics. The survey includes 2 parts: the consent then the questionnaire, which is subdivided into 4 parts: demographics, questionnaire about migraine characteristics, Rome 4 criteria to screen for irritable bowel syndrome, a questionnaire to screen for anxiety and depression using Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS). Analysis was done through the IBM SPSS Statistics version 28.0 program.
Results: The prevalence of IBS was 36.9% among migraine patients. The prevalence is greater among females, students, and those in the 30-39 age group. It was significantly noticed that those with longer headache duration have a higher prevalence of IBS 52.4% (p-value= 0.050); also, those with a family history of migraine had a higher prevalence of IBS 43.1% (p-value= 0.019). In the food allergy analysis, 27.6% of the patients were having food allergies. We have found that people allergic to citrus, coffee, and dairy products are more likely to develop IBS symptoms. We have found that the prevalence of IBS was higher in those with mild and moderate forms of anxiety and depression.
Conclusion: In conclusion, there is an association of IBS in migraine patients attending Dubai Health Authority clinics, but further study is needed.

The present investigation was conducted to isolate effective cellulolytic fungal flora from soil samples collected from various forests in Maharashtra (India). The study aimed to determine hydrolytic zones and relative enzyme activity for selecting most efficient fungal isolates. Further, the isolates were identified using morphological identification technique.
Altogether 137 fungal isolates were obtained in the present study, collected from forests of Lonavala, Chandrapur, Mahabaleshwar, Gadchiroli and Bhandardara. The screening of these fungal isolates for cellulase production revealed that 41 isolates had varying degrees of cellulolytic activity. However, isolate C77 produced the largest clearance zone (4.8 cm) on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) medium. The relative enzyme activity, expressed as the cellulolytic index, ranged from 1.1 to 3.5 among the 41 fungal isolates. Notably, C65 displayed the highest cellulolytic index, indicating superior enzyme activity, while other isolates like G5X, B24 and M145 also exhibited significant cellulolytic activity. From the present investigation it is concluded that Aspergillus terreus Thom, Trichoderma spp. Aff. T. harzianum Rifai, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Aspergillus spp. Aff. A. flavus Link isolated from the forests of Chandrapur, Gadchiroli, Bhandardara and Mahabaleshwar, respectively, were the most efficient cellulose degrading fungi.
Investigation of Microplastics Contamination in African Catfish Clarias gariepinus and Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus Fish Species in Owe River Ile-Oluji, Ondo State, Nigeria

Published: March 2024

The primary aim of this study is to investigate the presence of microplastics (MPs) contamination in surface water and two fish species (Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus) in Owe River. One Litre (1 L) of water samples were collected from four different locations along the river in triplicates, samples were digested to remove organic matters. Eighteen (18) numbers of fishes were collected for each species. Samples collected were dissected and the guts excised were digested with 10% Potassium hydroxide and 10% Hydrogen Peroxide. Both digested water and fish samples were filtered using 0.45µm membrane through a vacuum filtration apparatus. The filter papers were then observed under digital microscope (1600X RoHS China) for MPs identification. MPs were classified into colours and shapes. A total of 104 items was found in the gut of both fish species with an average of 4.33 ± 1.71 and 1.44 ± 0.70 items/individual for Clarias gariepinus and Oreochromis niloticus respectively. Fiber was seen to be dominant in fish species compared to other MPs shapes identified.The abundance of MPs in the water samples ranged from 203 ± 50.64 to 724.33 ± 129.89 Items/L with a total of 1898± 198.34 Items/L. Most of the recovered MPs from river water samples were fragments. Attenuated total reflectance– Fourier transform infrared (ATR – FTIR) spectroscopic analyses led to the identification of four (4) plastic polymer types, with polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) jointly constituting 82 % of the plastic particles. The enormous anthropogenic activities and indiscriminate disposal of plastic themed wastes along the river course are notably contributing factors to the MPs contamination of Owe River. A serious monitoring of waste disposal and necessary mitigation process is advised.
