THE EVIDENTIARY VALUE OF THE RESULTS OF EXPERT EXAMINATION OF DIGITAL IMAGES OF HANDWRITTEN DOCUMENT DETAILS
Authors: Шведова Н.Н. 
Published: April 2024

Статья посвящена одной из актуальных проблем экспертной практики – производству судебных экспертиз изображений рукописных реквизитов. Автор анализирует существующие методические подходы к исследованию объектов данной категории, имеющих цифровую природу, акцентируя внимание на электрофотографической технологии получения таких изображений. В статье обращается внимание на тот факт, что способ цифровой электрофотографической печати зачастую используется для маскировки различных фальсификаций документов, в том числе компьютерного монтажа. В распечатках, полученных данным способом, невозможно соблюсти требования методики по установлению признаков технической подделки подписи, что снижает обоснованность и достоверность последующего идентификационного исследования. Отмечается, что дефекты узлов и механизмов печатающего устройства могут влиять на качество отображения штрихов почерковых объектов на бумаге и искажать результаты экспертного исследования. Подчеркивается, что в данных обстоятельствах закономерным является отказ эксперта от решения вопроса, а любая формулировка условного вывода бессмысленна и лишает его какого-либо доказательственного значения.
The article is devoted to one of the urgent problems of expert practice -forensic examination of images of handwritten requisites. The author analyses the existing methodological approaches to the study of objects of this category having digital nature, focusing on the electrophotographic technology of obtaining such images. The article draws attention to the fact that the method of digital electrophotographic printing is often used to disguise various document falsifications, including computer editing. In printouts obtained by this method, it is impossible to comply with the requirements of the methodology for establishing the signs of technical forgery of a signature, which reduces the validity and reliability of the subsequent identification study. It is noted that defects in the units and mechanisms of the printing device may affect the quality of displaying the strokes of handwriting objects on paper and distort the results of the expert study. It is emphasised that in these circumstances it is natural for the expert to refuse to solve the question, and any formulation of a conditional conclusion is meaningless and deprives it of any evidentiary value.

Traceability in the coffee supply chain is crucial for ensuring transparency and authenticity. It helps safeguard the interests of both producers and consumers by minimizing the risk of fraudulent practices and ensuring fair trade. Different geographical origins can lead to variances in coffee taste, quality of product and economic value. Just because controlling the authenticity of the geographical origin of coffee beans is of great importance for producers and consumers worldwide. This study determined parameters (caffeine, chlorogenic acids, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total polyphenols content (TPC) volatile compounds, pH, water activity aw and dry matter) based on which was testing classification of geographical origin of coffee beans. For this research, six samples of 100% Coffea arabica medium roasting coffee beans, from the two major growing country of America and Africa were studied. As part of the research, variability in chemical composition based on geographical origin was confirmed. For America samples were significant parameters TAC, 4.5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, 3.5-dicaffeoylquinic acid, caffeine and chlorogenic acids. Second group was sample from Africa. For these samples was determine parameter like TPC, cryptochlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid and pH. Volatile substances, caffeine, pH, chlorogenic acids were considered the most important parameters that can help to identify the geographical origin.

India presently depends on imports of crude oil from overseas sources. However, the increasing demand for fossil fuels and the depletion of these finite resources are contributing to a rise in the costs associated with these imports. There has been a pressing demand for the development of cost-effective, renewable, and environmentally sustainable solutions. Biofuels, which are obtained from a wide range of biomass sources such as plants, animals, and microbes, present a potentially viable answer. Microorganisms exhibiting the ability to accumulate lipids in excess of 20% in the form of triacylglycerols and wax esters are commonly denoted as "oleaginous". The primary objective of this work was to isolate and screen bacterial strains with high lipid accumulation potential from soil samples collected along riverbanks. A total of fourteen strains were isolated and subjected to screening in order to assess their lipid production capabilities. Among these strains, Bacillus velezensis strain DAA1 exhibited the highest level of lipid synthesis. Response Surface Methodology was used to optimize carbon and salt concentrations. The experimental findings indicated that the utilization of carbon at a concentration of 12.5 g/L with salt concentration of 17.07 g/L, resulted in a noteworthy lipid content of 79%. The major fatty acid found through Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) for lipid characterization was determined to be 12-methyltetradecanoic acid, constituting 41% of the overall lipid composition. This work highlights the potential of Bacillus velezensis DAA1 as a promising alternative for lipid production, with possible implications for biofuel generation in the industry.
ENHANCING CELLULASE PRODUCTION VIA RESPONSE SURFACE METHODOLOGY FROM CLADOSPORIUM SP.: FRUIT WASTE ADDITION IMPACT
Authors: Poludasu Rama Mohan 
Published: April 2024

Accumulating organic waste stands as a significant challenge in developing nations. Researchers have extensively studied and utilized sugarcane bagasse fiber residues to produce various compounds. Cladosporium sp. NCIM 901 employs peracetic acid (PAA) treated bagasse in solid substrate fermentation (SSF) to generate cellulase enzyme. We utilized a Box-Behnken Design (BBD) to investigate how the fermentation medium components - watermelon juice, lemon peel powder, KH2PO4, (NH4)2SO4, and MgSO4 - affect the synthesis of Filter Paperase (FPase), Carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), and β-glucosidase enzymes. Under the enhanced conditions, the trial exhibited β-glucosidase, CMCase, and FPase activities of 18.6, 19.4, and 17.6 U/gds, respectively. The model calculated R2 values ranging between 91.2–91.4%, suggesting their suitability and potentially usable for estimating the level of culture medium variables needed to achieve optimal enzyme generation by the fungal strain Cladosporium sp. Observations confirm that supplementing lemon peel powder and watermelon juice with MgSO4 enhances enzyme production. The findings of model validation revealed high consistency between the observed experimental and anticipated outcomes. In the simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SsF) process, the processed bagasse yielded more ethanol (26 g/L) compared to the untreated substrate. Based on the result, it can be conclude that, fruit processing wastes are useful for increasing cellulase enzyme production by fungi under solid state fermentation.

Honey is a natural sweetener evaluated in accordance with Council Directive 2001/110/EC. 336 honeys from Czech hobby beekeepers were evaluated in this work. The honeys were classified by the beekeepers using questionnaires, and all samples were subjected to laboratory analysis using physico-chemical and melissopalynological methods. The honey samples were categorized by the beekeepers into blossom honeys (n=272), honeydew honeys (n=32), and blended honeys (n=32). Statistically significant differences between beekeepers’ and analytical determinations of honey origin were confirmed. For blossom honey, incorrect classification was due to hight electric conductivity (39%), hight moisture (29%), low F+G (14%), and high sucrose content (0,4%). For honeydew honey, incorrect classification was mainly due to low electric conductivity (100%). For blended honey due to high electric conductivity (3.2%) and high acidity (3.2%). Our results show that although the beekeeper has a great deal of information at his disposal for the proper classification of honey, the determination of a wide range of honey contents and properties is always crucial. The cumulative assessment of blossom honeys also showed that there are more monofloral honeys in the country than beekeepers themselves identify. The 6.8% and 23.0% of blossom honey was in compliance with the definition for monofloral honeys for upper and lower limit according to Czech and German regulation.

Silver-based nanomaterials have etched an indelible mark in multiple domains. The green synthesis of silver nanoparticles has received significant attention over the last few years vis-à-vis the conventional use of toxic chemicals and reagents in the preparatory stages. In this milieu, the work reported here highlights the use of an aqueous extract of teff (Eragrostis tef) flour to prepare silver nanoparticles (TSNPs). The compositional abundance of various phytochemicals, sunlight-induced bio-reduction of silver ions, and subsequent stabilization of the nanostructures by teff’s biomolecules were adroitly exploited. UV-visible spectroscopic analysis was employed to track the evolution of the TSNPs over time and their month-long storage stability. Exhibiting λmax at around 426 nm and energy gap (as revealed by Tauc’s plot) of 2.26 eV, the silver nanomaterial was employed for methylene blue dye degradation (50% degradation in less than 20 min) and DPPH scavenging (IC50 = 243.42 μL containing 410 μg of TSNPs), attesting their catalytic and anti-oxidant potency. On the other hand, anticoagulant action and a concentration-dependent variation were noted for radicle length post germination of Cicer arientinum seeds, treated with the TSNPs. The TSNPs could have profound implications in multiple domains.

“Morte barroca”: os fundamentos da retórica fúnebre nos sermões de Antônio Vieira
Authors: Lima da Silva Felipe 
Published: April 2024

O presente artigo analisa os fundamentos do tema da morte nos sermões do padre Antônio Vieira, buscando distinguir a maneira como o pregador configura o discurso fúnebre quando se dirige à corte, destacando a relevância da duração temporal como aspecto importante da sua “retórica da morte”. Em contrapartida, demonstraremos como Vieira se utiliza dos topoi da morte para conduzir o seu auditório pela via do desengano, apelando ao medo do tempo e ao temor da ausência de Deus muito mais do que ao macabro figurativamente recorrido. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Morte; Retórica; Antônio Vieira.
Le deuil et la littérature: une lecture de Clarice Lispector et Judith Butler
Authors: Antonaci Gama Carolina 
Published: April 2024

Cet essai porte sur le rapport entre la littérature et le deuil à partir des réflexions de Judith Butler et de l’analyse du récit Mineirinho de Clarice Lispector. D’abord, nous nous penchons sur le deuil de ceux qu’on aime pour y voir notre vulnérabilité par rapport à l’autre qui, disparu, enlève une part de notre propre constitution. Ensuite, nous élargissons cette réflexion pour essayer de comprendre notre attachement à ceux qui nous sont étrangers, éloignés de notre conception de « familier ». Finalement, nous abordons le deuil des ceux qui, ni étrangers ni familiers, séjournent dans les limbes de notre discursivité.

Internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy
Heather D. Hadjistavropoulos, Hugh C. McCall, and Jill A. B. Price, walk us through internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy tailored to public safety personnel. Public safety personnel (PSP) are first responders and others who ensure the safety of citizens. Canadian PSP report high rates of mental health disorders and face unique treatment barriers, such as limited time, geographical location, and stigma. Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) is a private and convenient mental health treatment that can be accessed anytime and virtually anywhere. Specifically, clients are provided with treatment strategies in an online course with or without therapist support. Therapist support is typically offered via secure, brief, weekly messages and/or phone calls that are designed to complement, rather than replace, online treatment materials. Hundreds of randomized controlled trials show that ICBT is effective for treating symptoms of anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress, and more.

Time to strengthen and enforce the north american migratory bird treaty act
The number of migratory bird populations is declining; Keith Hobson, professor and research scientist at Environment and Climate Change Canada and Western University, outlines the importance of updating conventions to protect these vulnerable species. One of the great current challenges of effective wildlife conservation globally involves the protection of migratory organisms that cross international boundaries during their annual cycle. The challenge is obvious when considering the myriad of obstacles involved with international agreements and requirements for on-the-ground compliance, especially when considering different languages, cultures and political systems. Nonetheless, such international cooperation is needed now more than ever as migratory animals have been found to be declining at greater rates than their non-migratory counterparts. That is especially the case for migratory birds. Not surprisingly, apart from regulations involving trade in wildlife or wildlife parts, such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), few success stories exist.

Stem programs: encouraging an early start with engineering design
Nancy Butler Songer, Associate Provost of STEM Education at the University of Utah, highlights the importance of introducing STEM programs to younger students. Fifty years ago, I was one of three girls (of fifty 11 and 12-year-olds) in the after-school Science Club (Figure 1). Equipped with my bicycle and a large butterfly net, my task was to gather and identify fifty different species of insects before school began again in the fall. Little did I know that this activity was a formative experience leading to a career in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education. My experience as a twelve-year-old is consistent with a wealth of research indicating that pre-teen interest in STEM fields, including Engineering, is a strong predictor of future careers. Research studies indicate that to increase the number of students pursuing engineering and science as a career goal, we must increase activities with engineering as a fundamental component before students reach their teenage years (Sneider & Ravel, 2021).
Invasive electrical stimulation for stroke treatment

Invasive electrical stimulation for stroke treatment
The CorTec Brain Interchange system is a potential tool to improve motor rehabilitation after stroke (Schuettler, 2023). Here, it is sketched how results from studies of other groups are combined to form CorTec’s vision of a new therapy and how first human data was collected to prove the systems therapy capability. In 1949, the neurophysiologist Donald Hebb postulated “Neurons that fire together, wire together,” which became the theoretical fundament for mechanisms underlying motor rehabilitation, e.g., after stroke. Co‐activation of neurons solidifies and even strengthens their synaptic connections. This “learning” can be utilised in conventional, occupational, or physio‐therapeutic rehabilitation approaches. It has been successfully investigated in animal models for decades that electrical stimulation can facilitate this learning process (Bao, 2020). These studies led to the following practical patient studies on stroke rehabilitation (amongst others):

Purple bacteria and their less known applications
Jungwoo Lee, High-School Student, and Arpita Bose, Associate Professor at Washington University in St. Louis, guide us through purple bacteria and their less-known applications, including wastewater treatment and biofertilization. Purple bacteria, also known as purple photosynthetic bacteria, which belong to the phylum Proteobacteria, can be classified into purple sulfur bacteria (PSB) and purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB). In contrast to PSB, PNSB demonstrate the ability to utilize various electron donors and acceptors, which further expands their applications. Their adaptable metabolism, coupled with well-defined genetic manipulation techniques, positions PNSB as ideal models for elucidating the intricacies of metabolic pathways, which hold significant implications for diverse biotechnological applications, including wastewater treatment, and as biofertilizers.
