Published: June 2023

Muara sungai berperan sebagai agen transfer dan penyimpanan bahan organik sebagai bagian proses ketersediaan zat hara di perairan. Sungai Banjir Kanal Timur merupakan salah satu sungai di Kota Semarang yang melintasi daerah padat pemukiman dan aktivitas industri sehingga memiliki kondisi dinamis akibat inputan limbah dari hasil aktivitas manusia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui konsentrasi karbon organik dalam suspensi (POC) dan konsentrasi klorofil-a serta menentukan jumlah karbon yang terkandung dalam fitoplankton sebagai hasil sekuestrasi karbon di daerah muara sungai. Analisis klorofil-a dilakukan dengan metode spektrofotometri dan analisis POC dilakukan dengan metode LOI (loss of ignition) pada sampel MPT. Nilai klorofil-a hasil pengukuran lapangan berkisar antara 2,15 –20,44 μg/L dan POC berkisar 0,0273–0,1894 μg/L. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sekuestrasi karbon terjadi melalui proses fotosintesis oleh fitoplankton dan berjalan maksimal di daerah dekat muara (pantai). Konsentrasi klorofil-a yang tinggi menunjukkan tingginya biomassa fitoplankton yang sekaligus menjelaskan banyaknya carbon yang terserap. Estuaries act as agents for the transfer and storage of organic matter as part of the nutrient availability process in the waters. The Banjir Kanal Timur (BKT) Estuary is a waters and river mouth that crosses dense residential areas and industrial activities so that it has dynamic water conditions as a result of waste resulting from human activities. This study aimed to determine the concentration of organic carbon in suspension (POC) and the concentration of chlorophyll-a and to determine the amount of carbon contained in phytoplankton as a result of carbon sequestration in the estuary area of the river. Chlorophyll-a analysis was carried out by spectrophotometric method and POC analysis was carried out by LOI (loss of weight on ignition) method on MPT samples. The chlorophyll-a values from field measurements ranged from 2.1456 μg/L – 20.6424 μg/L and the POC ranged from 0.0273 – 0.1894 μg/L. The results showed that carbon sequestration occurs through the process of photosynthesis by phytoplankton and runs optimally in areas near estuaries (beaches). A high concentration of chlorophyll-a indicates a high phytoplankton biomass which also explains the amount of carbon absorbed.
Managing Employees’ Diversity Practices in Private Higher Education in Ethiopia; Evidence from Selected Private Higher Educational Institutions (PHEIs) in Mekelle, Tigray

Published: June 2023

Diversity means having a range of people with various racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, and cultural backgrounds and various lifestyles, experience and interests. The efforts with regard to the study of managing employees’ diversity in private higher educational institutions (PHEIs) have helped private colleges in keeping their global competitiveness and overall ability to have a confrontation at an international level. However, studies show that managing employees’ diversity are no longer the only topical issues for argument in organizations but are now a reality to be challenged in the day to day activities of private higher educations. For this case, the debate on issues related to managing employees’ diversity practices in private higher education is desire to create safe, welcoming and conflict free work places in the higher education environments established by people of diverse backgrounds. Hence, the objective of this study was to examine employees’ diversity management practices in the selected private higher education institutions in Mekelle. The study employed a descriptive cross sectional survey design by applying both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The researcher used open ended interview and a semi-structured questionnaire that used a 5-point Likert scale to collect the primary data from 131 employees and the higher administrative bodies of the selected higher education respectively. The study used descriptive and econometric techniques to analyze the collected data. Following the dimensions of diversity namely; age, nationality, ethnicity, language, physical disability, socio-economic status and gender were considered as they were viewed as being more applicable dimensions for private higher education in Mekelle. Descriptive results of the study showed that respondents slightly agree with performance of physical disability and language on managing employees’ diversity; while, they slightly disagree with the other dimensions of diversity. The correlation result shows physical disability and socio-economic status have strong and significant; while, three dimensions (Nationality, Ethnicity and Language) have moderate and significant and the remaining two have weak and significant association with managing employees diversity. Finally, the regression result revealed that 65.7% of managing employees’ diversity was explained by the seven diversity dimensions. Moreover, all except age and gender have significant effect on managing employees’ diversity in the selected PHEIs. Finally, the study forwarded a number of recommendations for the management of the selected higher education to improve managing employees’ diversity practices.

Published: June 2023

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the variation of the moisture content and drying rate over time, temperature, and position by NMR techniques. Chickpea puree was selected for drying, and the drying experiments were performed at 50–70 °C for 3 h using cylindrical shaped samples with dimensions of 6 cm × 1 cm. The moisture contents of samples were measured using oven, time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods. The change in moisture content and drying rate with temperature and position was evident. Hence, the drying rates ranged at 0.34–0.44 kgH2O/m2h and drying times were estimated as 440–320 min for 50–70 °C and r = 1–3 cm. It was concluded that TD-NMR and MRI methods were effective, high-sensitive and precise in estimating moisture content during chickpea drying process.

Abstract
Ovine pneumonia is a disease in sheep that is associated with major animal welfare issues and economic losses and for which there is no effective vaccine. We tested the adjuvanticity of our most promising α,α′-trehalose 6,6′-glycolipids, lipidated brartemicin adjuvants p-C18Brar (3), o-C18Brar (4), and amide-TDB (5) in vaccines for ovine pneumonia containing Mannheimia haemolytica and Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae whole cell antigens. p-C18Brar (3) and o-C18Brar (4) led to strong antigen-specific IgG antibody titres that were better than those elicited by the prototypical α,α′-trehalose glycolipid trehalose dibehenate (TDB, 2) and amide-TDB (5). T-cell responses, as determined by measuring IFN-γ and IL-17A production from antigen-stimulated whole blood cultures, revealed that p-C18Brar (3), but not TDB (2), o-C18Brar (4), or amide-TDB (5), led to statistically significant increases in these cytokines. We then optimised the synthesis of p-C18Brar (3) (3 steps, 72 % overall yield) and undertook further vaccination studies to determine the optimal dose of p-C18Brar (3) that would be used for future large scale ovine pneumonia field trials. At a dose of 3.75 mg per vaccine, the adjuvanticity of p-C18Brar (3), as measured by levels of anti-M. haemolytica IgG antibody and T-cell responses (IFN-γ and IL-17A) was better than that elicited by the commercially available adjuvant Quil-A, and had reduced reactogenicity. Taken together, the excellent immunological profile of p-C18Brar (3) and its ease and efficiency of synthesis makes it an attractive adjuvant for use in veterinary vaccines.

In the process of establishing the Hungarian Royal Ministry of Justice, the “first organization” actually happened twice: in 1848 and 1867. The former has its 175th anniversary in 2023, the latter had the 155th one in 2022 parallel with other ministries that were already in operation as departments in 1848. This particular duality will be presented in brief focusing on the work and leadership of such Hungarian statesmen as Ferenc Deák and Boldizsár Horvát and their talented contemporaries.

Na Região dos Lagos, no estado do Rio de Janeiro, concentra-se um dos maiores centros de biodiversidade do planeta. Uma estratégia de conservação adotada para a região foi a criação de uma unidade de conservação de proteção integral descontínua, o Parque Estadual da Costa do Sol (PECSol) em 2011. O presente trabalho visou analisar a estrutura e composição da paisagem de um dos núcleos do PECSol, o Núcleo Atalaia-Dama Branca em 2016, como subsídio para a elaboração de estratégias ambientais de conservação. Foram utilizadas imagens do Google Earth, técnicas de Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) e de Ecologia da Paisagem. Os resultados evidenciaram que a vegetação nativa se encontra conservada, no entanto, existem áreas de conflito espacial. A espécie exótica invasora Casuarina equisetifolia está se estabelecendo em áreas que foram degradadas anteriormente e solo exposto (praias e dunas). As métricas apontaram que os fragmentos de vegetação nativa são, na sua maioria, pequenos e encontram-se isolados. Algumas propostas de manejo são sugeridas mediante os resultados obtidos.ABSTRACTIn the Região dos Lagos, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, one of the largest biodiversity centers on the planet is concentrated.

A Influência de Slavoj Žižek no Texto Nuevas Reflexiones Sobre La Revolución De Nuestro Tiempo, de Ernesto Laclau
Authors: Batista Camila , Martínez Horacio Luján 
Published: June 2023

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar a influência do artigo Más allá del análisis del discurso de Slavoj Žižek no texto de 1992 de Ernesto Laclau, Nuevas Reflexiones sobre la Revolución de Nuestro Tiempo. Por meio de uma análise do artigo de Žižek abordaremos a primeira parte do texto de Laclau, em que é afirmada a influência direta de Žižek. Em seu elogio à Hegemonia e Estratégia Socialista (1985), Žižek apresenta o ponto de convergência entre a teoria do discurso e a psicanálise lacaniana. Analisando a questão do antagonismo e das posições de sujeito, Žižek abre caminho para a abordagem presente na primeira parte de Nuevas Reflexiones sobre la Revolución de Nuestro Tiempo, ao tornar necessário uma discussão pontual acerca dos limites do antagonismo e do papel do sujeito no processo hegemônico, tornando possível a afirmação da importância do termo “deslocamento” para a teoria do discurso.
Pós-Estruturalismo, Gênero e hegemonia: Breves Considerações Teóricas na Interface com a Temática da “Religião Pública"
Authors: De Souza Robson da Costa 
Published: June 2023

Trata-se de uma discussão elaborada a partir da apresentação dos resultados parciais da pesquisa “Religião, Gênero e Habilidades Sociais”, projeto em execução no âmbito da Fundação Joaquim Nabuco (PE) e que se insere nos estudos da temática de gênero e do fenômeno religioso contemporâneo, de um lado, e no interesse sociológico pela relação entre religião e “esfera pública”, de outro. Comparando grupos evangélicos distintos e expressivos de 3 (três) capitais brasileiras (Recife, Vitória e Rio de Janeiro), busca-se verificar – em contextos religiosos específicos e de modo interdisciplinar – em que medida a diversidade de configurações discursivo-teológicas presentes no protestantismo brasileiro de origem missionária e pentecostal dialogam (ou não) com as políticas públicas e culturais (ou mesmo iniciativas da sociedade civil) de enfrentamento ao “sexismo”, ao racismo e à intolerância religiosa. Reportando-me, no plano teórico, aos conceitos vinculados ao pós-estruturalismo feminista e aos aportes teóricos pós-coloniais e da “teoria do discurso” em chave marxista e “pós-marxista”, apresento uma contribuição teórico-analítica pautada nos processos discursivos da vida social.

AbstractIntratumor heterogeneity (ITH) is a barrier to effective therapy. However, it is largely unknown how ITH is established at the onset of tumor progression, such as in colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we integrate single‐cell RNA‐seq and functional validation to show that asymmetric division of CRC stem‐like cells (CCSC) is critical for early ITH establishment. We find that CCSC‐derived xenografts contain seven cell subtypes, including CCSCs, that dynamically change during CRC xenograft progression. Furthermore, three of the subtypes are generated by asymmetric division of CCSCs. They are functionally distinct and appear at the early stage of xenografts. In particular, we identify a chemoresistant and an invasive subtype, and investigate the regulators that control their generation. Finally, we show that targeting the regulators influences cell subtype composition and CRC progression. Our findings demonstrate that asymmetric division of CCSCs contributes to the early establishment of ITH. Targeting asymmetric division may alter ITH and benefit CRC therapy.

Aim. To compare data on the features of spleen macrophage composition in pa­tients with fatal myocardial infarction (MI) and in patients from the control group without cardiovascular disease (CVD).Material and methods. The study included patients with fatal MI (n=30) and control group (n=5) — persons without CVD who died from injuries not compatible with life. Macrophage infiltration of spleen and myocardium fragments taken during autopsy was assessed by immunohistochemistry using macrophage markers CD68, CD163, CD206, stabilin-1.Results. There were following number of cells studied by us in the red pulp (RP) in patients with MI: CD163+, 906 (661; 1101), CD68+, 898 (807; 1049), stabilin-1+, 811 (531; 966), CD206+, 11 (9; 19); control group: CD163+, 400 (315; 513), CD68+, 40 (37; 45), stabilin-1+, 186 (107; 206), CD206+, 80 (70; 84). The content of all cells in the RP in patients with MI was high and prevailed over their number in the control group, while only the CD206+ concentration was inferior in number; in the control group, CD163+ cells predominated (p<0,05). There were following number of cells in the white pulp (WP): CD68+, 312 (260; 348), stabilin-1+, 59 (40; 123), CD163+, 29 (17; 56), CD206+, 2 (1; 5) in the group with MI; CD68+, 3 (1; 4), stabilin-1+, 3 (2; 3), CD163+, 23 (1; 48), CD206+, 1 (1; 2) in the control group. In persons with MI, CD68+ cells dominated in WP, while in the control group — CD163+ (p<0,05). The minimum and comparable in WP in both groups was the number of CD206+ cells (p<0,05), which correlated in the control group with the level of stabilin-1+ and CD206+ cells (r=-0,9, p=0,003) and in patients with MI — with the level of CD206+ cells in the myocardium (r=0,6, p=0,004).Conclusion. The dominance of CD163+ cells in all functional spleen areas in the control group and CD68+ cells in patients with MI was revealed. The only cell type, the content of which in the control group prevailed over that in MI in RP and correlated in WP with its myocardial concentration, was CD206+.

En la actualidad resulta imperativo el estudio de los depósitos superficiales ya sea para fines económicos, ambientales o científicos. La presente investigación tiene como objetivo actualizar el mapa de depósitos cuaternarios de la parte NNW de la Cordillera de Guaniguanico a partir de datos de pozos de investigaciones geológicas regionales, para lo cual se realizó la interpretación compleja de la documentación de los sondeos. La metodología empleada consta de las siguientes etapas: revisión bibliográfica, análisis de la base de datos de los registros de pozos, procesamiento del modelo digital del terreno (MDT), interpretación de los mapas regionales (suelos y espectrometría gamma), y la cartografía de los depósitos recientes. El MDT fue procesado para derivar los mapas de pendientes y de formas del relieve, los cuales juntos con el mapa disponible de depósitos cuaternarios, el mapa de suelos, el mapa de radioelementos y un profundo análisis de las condiciones geomorfológicas y litológicas, permitió determinar los tipos de sedimentos presentes en el área. Los espesores calculados en los pozos que atraviesan los depósitos superficiales fueron interpolados mediante el método geoestadístico Kriging Ordinario para construir el mapa de isópacas. El trabajo demostró la utilidad del procesamiento y análisis de los pozos de investigaciones geológicas regionales para actualizar los mapas de depósitos cuaternarios y revelar el patrón de distribución de sus espesores. A través del estudio se pudo identificar los siguientes tipos de depósitos: aluviales, eluvio-coluvio-proluviales, marinos, palustres y depósitos terrígenos constituidos por la Fm. Guane y un conjunto no diferenciable de las formaciones Guane más Guevara. Los resultados obtenidos pueden ser utilizados por ejemplo para la prospección y exploración de yacimientos minerales, la búsqueda de nuevas zonas para la perforación de pozos hidrológicos o estudios para la preservación del medio ambiente.
