Chamaecrista rotundifolia is one of the few plant species growing on heavy metal-contaminated Nigerian Air Force shooting range, Kaduna. This microbially unexplored plant species can have microbial association with endophytes. This study was aimed at isolating, identifying and characterizing endophytic bacteria associated with the roots of Chamaecrista rotundifolia growing on the Nigerian Air Force shooting range, Kaduna. The identification of the endophytic bacteria was done using standard biochemical methods and 16S rRNA sequencing analysis. The isolates were then screened for antibiotic resistance, plant growth promoting properties and heavy metal tolerance using standard techniques. Varied concentrations of heavy metal salts (Pb2+, Cr3+, Ni2+ and Mn2+) were used to test the isolates for their heavy metal tolerance. Four endophytic bacteria isolated from the roots of C. rotundifolia were Aerococcus viridans, Peribacillus simplex, Staphylococcus simplex and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Results on antibiotic sensitivity test revealed that the four isolates were resistant to most of the antibiotics. The isolates possessed plant growth promoting properties by showing positive results for Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic (ACC) deaminase activity and phosphate solubilizing. Results also revealed that the isolates showed some degree of tolerance to the heavy metals. The tolerance of both A. viridans and P. simplex to chromium and manganese showed significant difference (p<0.05) across all the concentration levels of the metal salts. It is therefore concluded that Chamaecrista rotundifolia growing on Nigerian Air Force shooting range, Kaduna, is associated with endophytic bacteria which could be the reason the plant species thrive in heavy metal-contaminated site.

Hydraulic transients are accelerated by the wicket gate closing in hydroelectric power plants. When the wicket gate is closed, there is a sudden change in velocity due to the closure. Therefore, a study has been carried out here, wherein water hammers on different hydropower components use optimum closure laws: Fast closure laws, slow closure laws, and instant load rejection. Hammer V10i software was used to investigate the phenomenon of pressure transient. The results show that the maximum transient pressure is strongly influenced by a very short closing time and was increased to 41.24% from the slow to the fast closure.
Furthermore, the results from instant load rejections reveal that the transient pressure will be less than the fast and slow closure. So, the closing law selection can positively influence the entire hydropower plant system. Furthermore, the results show that there was a decrease in pressure near the turbine during the different load rejections, Fast closure, slow closure, and instant load rejection, where 57.7%, 15%, and 0.46%, respectively, and the decrease in turbine rotation speed were as 5.1%, 60%, and 24% respectively. Moreover, results reveal that maximum and minimum flow variation reached -29.75% and 41.2% during the fast closure.
Polystyrene degradation by bacteria isolated from the larvae of <i>Rhynchophorusphoenicis</i>
Authors: Immanuel O.M. , Isaiah I.A. 
Published: March 2024

The larvae of insects of the order Coleoptera have been reported to biodegrade plastics aided by their chewing mouthparts and the activities of their gut biota. However, there is no report of this ability by the African palm weevil (Rhynchophorus phoenicis). This study aims to the ability of R. phoenicis larvae to biodegrade polystyrene (PS). A total of 100 R. phoenicis larvae were fed for 21 days with PS foam, and afterwards, the gut contents of survivors were investigated for possible PS-degrading bacteria. Bacterial isolates were screened for PS biodegradation in an Erlenmeyer flask with PS film as the sole carbon source, in a mineral salt medium (MSM) at a temperature of 30oC and a pH of 7, for a period of 28 days. The isolates were used for biodegradation assay under the same conditions, for 60 days. The weight of PS films was determined before and after the biodegradation assay. Chemical changes in the films were confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Two bacterial isolates were recovered from the gut of the only surviving R. phoenicis larvae fed with 100% PS. The isolates were identified based on their 16S rRNA sequences as Lysinibacillus macriodes and Pantoea dispersa with accession numbers OQ652017 and OQ652023 respectively. The isolates caused an 8.8% reduction in the weight of PS film and FTIR spectroscopy results confirmed the formation of groups suggestive of degradation products with the carbonyl group showing up as absorption peaks in the range of 1640-1760 cm-1 and the hydroxylic group at 3000-3700 cm-1 . The isolates were able to produce polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) equivalent to 1.4g/L, under PS degradation conditions. Therefore, coupling the biodegradation of PS with PHAproduction could be useful for the valorization of PS waste.

Abstrak
Pemberantasan tindak pidana korupsi merupakan bagian dari sistem peradilan pidana yang bertumpu pada jalur represif semata, karena bila hanya dengan menyeret para koruptor ke Pengadilan tidak mungkin dapat menekan laju perkembangan tindak pidana korupsi. Besarnya kerugian keuangan negara yang diakibatkan oleh korupsi sangat tidak sebanding besar pengembalian keuangan negara akibat korupsi. Pelaksanaan pengembalian kerugian keuangan negara akibat tindak pidana korupsi juga tidak serta merta dapat begitu saja dilakukan. Selain menunggu pembayaran uang pengganti dari para terpidana kasus korupsi yang memerlukan waktu yang lama, pengembalian uang pengganti ke kas negara tidak dapat langsung dilakukan. Hal ini diakibatkan harus ada prosedur birokrasi yang dilewati. Dengan menggunakan metodologi penelitian yuridis normatif penulis bermaksud mencari jawaban atas permasalahan yang ada. Efektifitas dari penerapan pidana tambahan uang pengganti dalam rangka pengembalian kerugian keuangan negara dalam tindak pidana korupsi belum efektif, hal ini harta benda terpidana sudah terlebih dahulu disita. Ini membuktikan bahwa diperlukan waktu yang sangat panjang guna memperoleh pengembalian kerugian keuangan negara dengan uang pengganti dari para terpidana. pelaksanaan pengembalian kerugian keuangan Negara bahwa pembayaran uang pengganti secara langsung atau apabila terdakwa tidak membayar uang pengganti tersebut dalam jangka waktu 1 bulan setelah putusan pengadilan mempunyai kekuatan hukum tetap, maka dapat dilakukan penyitaan terhadap harta bendanya kemudian di lelang untuk menutupi uang pengganti tersebut.

“The Past that doesn’t Pass”: National Socialism in the Memory Policy of the FRG and the Historical Policy of the GDR
Authors: Stelmakh S. 
Published: March 2024

The article provides a comparative analysis of the coverage of the legacy of National Socialism in the memory policy of the FRG and historical policy of the GDR and various commemorative practices. The author revealed the conceptual apparatus that is used in professional historiography and public discourse. Its various contents and features of use in different chronological periods were also determined in the article. The author considered numerous methodological approaches used by researchers of memory problems. The difference between the concepts of “memory policy” and “memory culture” in content is that the first term provides for a set of government measures to preserve memory, while the second term is broader and focuses on involving public institutions and society in the discussion of “memory” problems. The article shows the differences in the attitude to the National Socialist past in the FRG and the GDR on specific examples. The author paid attention to new approaches to the memory of the World War II in modern Germany, which has resulted from the processes of migration and the transformation of the country into a multicultural community. Two factors influence contemporary debates about the politics of memory in Germany: a) globalization, cultural transfer and migration, which exacerbate conflicts in nationally oriented memory politics. Like most countries in Western Europe, Germany is an immigration country, comprising a population that can’t longer be differentiated by nations and ethnic groups. Accordingly, historical memory refers less and less to national or ethnic historical foundations, as an ever-increasing proportion of the population has a second family origin and is therefore confronted with a past that lies beyond their ethnic beliefs; b) the Russian-Ukrainian war turned attention to the crimes of National Socialism during the Second World War (1939-1945) in Eastern Europe and Ukraine in particular.

Univerbation is a problematic way of word formation in German language
Authors: Gataullin Ravil G. 
Published: March 2024

The article analyzes derivational univerbation as one of the forms of compression functioning in word formation. Univerbation is a merging, pulling together of a free or stable word combination, a sentence or a sentence fragment into one verbal whole. The new word-forming construction in its form corresponds with one word, and in its semantics with the whole word combination. It is not uncommon for a new word to “absorb” the meaning of the context. The activity of universalization is closely connected with the need for “economical” nominations of new concepts, as well as with the need for stylistic variation of the name. This way of word formation allows creating compact, economical, concise and succinct forms of expressing thoughts without special speech efforts. The problematic character of this derivational model is that there is an extended interpretation of the essence of word formation methods.

Restricted size Ramsey numbers and restricted size Ramsey minimal graphs for matching versus wheel upto order six
Authors: Sharma Isha , Jakhar Jagjeet 
Published: March 2024

The notion of the restricted size Ramsey number arises from the amalgamation of the theory of Ramsey numbers and the size Ramsey number for graphs. The concept of the (restricted) size Ramsey number of small graphs was first introduced by Harary and Miller in 1983. They derived specific values for certain pairs of small graphs, each having a maximum count of four vertices. In that same year, R. J. Faudree and J. Sheehan furthered the research and expanded the findings to encompass all the pairs of small graphs with a maximum order of four. The restricted size Ramsey number and size Ramsey number for all pairs of small forests of maximum order five was given by Lortz and Mengersen in 1998. In this study, our research endeavours to advance the understanding of the restricted size Ramsey number by ascertaining the restricted size Ramsey numbers and restricted size Ramsey minimal graphs involving 2K2 and wheel graph upto order six. More specifically, we find r * (2K2, W3) = r* (2K2, W4) = 15 and r * (2K2, W5) = 19.
