Gertrude/Ophelia: Feminist Intermediality, Ekphrasis, and Tenderness in _Hamlet_

description: This essay argues that feminists can productively use theories of intermediality to consider postmodern representations of Shakespeare's Ophelia fabricated by women (or by creators self-identified as female, in the case of online avatars), in order to explore the following questions: under what circumstances might we imagine femininity as essential, constructed, or contingent and in between? Can the subject of an artwork express a kind of selfhood or is such a subject invariably objectified through being turned into art? Can artists' ironic use of sexist tropes interrogate such tropes without reinforcing them? The figure of Ophelia in some of the artworks produced does seem to give women and girls explicitly feminist avenues for self-expression and self-realization: they present Ophelia as self-creating artist, not just as artifact. Other incarnations of this character, however — because of the material contexts in which they are created and disseminated — reiterate the voyeurism that earlier critics found in Gertrude's elegy on the drowned Ophelia. The essay reconsiders Gertrude's speech through its textual variants to find spaces for tenderness and interactivity between Gertrude and Ophelia, spaces that attest to the complex, non-binary solutions available to women artists as they seek to represent themselves and each other in their arts.

Developing Anaerobic Fungi As a platform for Efficient lignocellulose hydrolysis
Creators: name: Hooker, Casey A.
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2019
Subjects: Agricultural engineering

description: Lignocellulose is an ubiquitous source of fixed carbon that is presently underexploited for renewable energy technologies. Currently, producing enzyme cocktails that robustly degrade these feedstocks is a significant economic bottleneck. Anaerobic gut fungi native to the digestive tracts of ruminants and hindgut fermenters are widely understudied despite their inherent ability to degrade a significant portion (~50%) of the lignocellulose in herbivorous animals. Challenges in cultivation due to their strict oxygen sensitivity, and the lack of a central repository to maintain axenic stocks substantially impede the progress with anaerobic fungi. Yet, these microbes have evolved elegant strategies and may harbor novel biomass degrading enzymes that could be used to more efficiently hydrolyze lignocellulose. Developing these organisms through characterization and genome engineering will yield significant contributions to the bioenergy community by improving hydrolysis technologies. In this work, we report the isolation of four novel species of anaerobic gut fungi. A more complete characterization of one of our four fungal isolates is investigated, whereby the effects of substrate composition and the corresponding fungal growth rates are compared. I also explore the growth of one of our fungal isolates on transgenic poplar to understand how fungal growth and enzyme secretion adapt to variable lignin composition. Notably, no significant reductions in growth were observed highlighting the ability of anaerobic fungi to degrade diverse feedstocks regardless of lignin composition. I have additionally included preliminary work intended to identify what epigenetic regulational strategies exist for anaerobic fungi, and how they relate to carbohydrate active enzyme expression. We hope to leverage this knowledge to engineer base enzyme cocktails that release significant portions of the fermentable sugars in untreated or mildly treated plant biomass as a means to make bioenergy technologies more efficient.

description: Various non-spore forming bacteria, including Escherichia coli, enter a dormant-like state, the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state, characterized by the presence of viable cells but the inability to grow on routine laboratory media. Upon resuscitation, these VBNC cells recover both culturability and pathogenicity. In 2011, a large outbreak involving more than 3000 cases of bloody diarrhoea and haemolytic uremic syndrome was caused by an E. coli O104:H4 strain expressing genes characteristic of both enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) and enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC). The ability of the outbreak strain to enter the VBNC state may have complicated its detection in the suspected sources. In this paper, we investigated the ability of the outbreak strain to enter and subsequently recover from the VBNC state. We found that in a nutrient-poor micro-environment, various stresses such as toxic concentrations of copper ions or certain types of tap water are able to render the bacteria unculturable within a few days. Without copper ion stress, the majority of cells remained culturable for at least 40 days. Incubation with the stressors at 23°C compared with 4°C hastened this observed loss of culturability. The integrity of a considerable fraction of copper ion- and tap water 1-stressed bacteria was demonstrated by live/dead staining and microscopy. Relieving stress by copper-ion chelation facilitated resuscitation of these bacteria while preserving their fitness, major virulence gene markers (stx2, aggR, aggA genes) and specific phenotypes (ESBL resistance, autoaggregation typical for EAEC strains).

description: The αLβ2-integrin LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) is known as an important molecule for leukocyte migration. However, the precise role of LFA-1 in the pathogenesis of EAE has so far remained unclear. We describe here the disease development in LFA-1(-/-) mice compared with WT controls. Ablation of LFA-1 resulted in more severe EAE with increased demyelination and increased numbers of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-reactive CD4(+) T cells in the CNS. However, the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-17 and IFN-γ was unchanged on the level of antigen-specific T cells. Interestingly, LFA-1-deficient mice showed a clearly reduced frequency of Treg in the inflamed CNS. Moreover, Treg counts in spleens and thymi of unimmunized LFA-1(-/-) mice were lower in comparison to the WT controls, indicating an impairment of Treg generation. In combination, these results suggest a substantial role of LFA-1 in Treg generation and subsequent expansion of effector T cells and highlight the importance of Treg in limiting EAE.

Functional Properties of Protein and Chitin from Commercial Cricket Flour
Creators: name: Hirsch, Andrew J.
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2019
Subjects: Food sciences not elsewhere classified

description: The House Cricket (Acheta domesticus) is a promising alternative to traditional protein sources, as these insects produce over 12 times the mass of protein for a given mass of food/water when compared to cattle, while also producing lower amounts of greenhouse gases and NH3 emissions (Kim et al. 2017, Hanboonsong, Jamjanya and Durst 2013, Van Huis 2013). Additionally, previous studies have demonstrated significant emulsification and gelling properties of insect flours, such as from cricket, which has been attributed to the functional properties of the protein (Kim et al. 2017). Ground cricket flours contain significant quantities of both protein and fibrous polysaccharides, particularly chitin. Since chitin particles are also capable of preparing emulsions as a Pickering stabilizer, there remains a question on the relative role of the protein and chitin components in crickets for stabilizing emulsion products. Relative contributions of each component was identified by first isolating the water-soluble protein and water-insoluble chitin fractions from ground cricket flour and then determining their interfacial properties and stability of prepared oil-in-water emulsions. Dynamic interfacial tension measurements indicated significant surface activity of the protein fraction, while there was minimal evidence of significant surface pressure development in the presence of 5-10 μm chitin particles. 10 % (w/w) canola oil-in-water emulsions were prepared with 0.5-2% (w/w) of the water-soluble protein fraction and 5.29% (w/w) canola oil-in-water emulsions were prepared with 0.688% of the chitin fraction. Stability of the emulsions against creaming was between 75% and 90% for emulsions stabilized by the protein fraction over three weeks of storage and between 93% and 96% for emulsions stabilized by chitin over 24 hours of storage. Significant fractions of precipitate- and oil-layers found in chitin-stabilized dispersions was attributed to the presence of large chitin particles (79 μm volume weighted mean diameter) and inefficient adsorption to droplet interfaces during homogenization, respectively. Volume-weighted mean diameter of emulsified oil droplets remained at 17-24 μm among protein-stabilized (>1.5 wt%) emulsions over three weeks of storage but only 60 μm over 24 hours among chitin-stabilized emulsions. Light micrographs of emulsion droplets showed successful adsorption of chitin fractions to oil droplets in the emulsion layer, verifying their potential as Pickering stabilizers. These findings demonstrated that both water-soluble protein and chitin particles obtained from ground cricket flours are legitimate emulsion stabilizers, yet the chitin fraction is much less effective without a more intensive approach to reduce their particle size.

description: What is the current status of the discipline of Literary Theory and Comparative Literature? How has the work published by 452ºF. Journal of Literary Theory and Comparative Literature contributed to the field? These questions are the starting point for the reflections included in these critic’s notes, which have been conceived as a collective text to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the journal. The authors in these notes –founding members of the journal and/or reknowned specialists– take a retrospective view of the field and consider how the economic crisis and the crisis of literary studies are revealed as trigger events for its reconfiguration and, also, for the emergence of 452ºF. Journal of Literary Theory and Comparative Literature. In turn, these reflections lay out a current panorama of the field that, while not exhaustive, does allow us to draw a cartography whose boundaries extend into other disciplines, revealing sites of intersection where different investigations and perspectives are in dialogue, and which have shaped this journal over the last ten years.

description: Hypertension and arthritis are two common diseases in the general population, with multiple common risk factors. This study aimed to assess the association between hypertension (HTN) and arthritis. This cohort study included 48,372 eligible non-pregnant participants aged ≥ 20 years who had valid data on hypertension and arthritis from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999–2018. The association between hypertension and arthritis was studied by logistic regression, adjusting for demographics, socioeconomic factors, excess sodium intake, physical activity, ever smoking, diabetes status and body mass index (BMI). Among the participants, 48.0% (95% CI: 47.2–48.9) had hypertension and 24.5% (95% CI: 23.8–25.3) had self-reported arthritis. Hypertension was associated with arthritis [OR = 2.90, (95% CI: 2.74–3.07), p < 0.01], which remained significant [OR = 1.27, (95% CI:1.18–1.37), p < 0.01] after adjustments. Stratified by the types of arthritis, the association remained significant in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) [OR = 1.25, (95% CI: 1.11–1.41), p < 0.01] and osteoarthritis (OA) [OR = 1.32, (95% CI: 1.16–1.50); p < 0.01]. There was no clear association between hypertension and OA in participants aged 60 years old and above [OR = 1.08, (95% CI: 0.92–1.26); p = 0.37]. In this large nationally representative survey over 20 years, arthritis, including both RA and OA, was strongly associated with hypertension. Our study demonstrates a need for hypertension screening and blood control among patients with arthritis.Key MessagesArthritis was associated with hypertension.Both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are strongly associated with hypertension.There is an urgency for hypertension screening and blood control among patients with arthritis.

THE PRODUCTION OF VOICE ONSET TIME AND ONSET F0 IN SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNERS OF FRENCH
Creators: name: Hutchinson, Amy
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2019
Subjects: Linguistics not elsewhere classified

description: Voice Onset Time (VOT) and onset f0 are known correlates of voicing distinctions in stops and both contribute to the production and perception of voicing (House & Fairbanks, 1953; Abramson & Lisker, 1965; Ohde, 1984). As the values of VOT and onset f0, which correspond to voicing categories, vary cross-linguistically, a second language (L2) learner has to acquire a novel use of these acoustic cues to produce and perceive voicing in their L2. Although the acquisition of the primary voicing cue, VOT, has been studied extensively in L2 research (Flege & Eefting, 1988; Flege 1991; Birdsong et al. 2007), little is known about the acquisition of onset f0. The present study compares the use of VOT and onset f0 in French and English speech produced by American learners of French (23). The study also examines evidence for phonetic drift in L2 learners by comparing their English productions to a monolingual control group (33). Results indicate that although learners’ VOT values in French were heavily influenced by English, their onset f0 production in both English and French were on target, showing that learners are able to manipulate the two cues independently of one another. Little evidence of the effect of learners’ second language on the first language was found.This study also examines the role of individual learning history on the realization of VOT and onset f0, determining that average number of hours speaking French and age of L2 acquisition (AOA) reported by learners shows the strongest correlation with the learner’s acoustic productions.

description: This study used statistical methods to investigate linkages in phenotypic resistance profiles in a population sample of 321 Salmonella Typhimurium isolates from sporadic salmonellosis cases in Lower Saxony, Germany, collected during 2008–2010. A resistance index was applied to calculate the conditional probability of resistance to one antimicrobial agent given the resistance to one or more other antimicrobial agent(s). A susceptibility index was defined analogously. A contingency plot, which visualizes the association between resistances to two antimicrobial agents, facilitated the interpretation. Linkages between minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were analysed using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient and jittered scatter plots. Applying these methods provided a compact description of multi-resistance and linkages between resistance properties in large datasets. Moreover, this approach will improve monitoring of antimicrobial resistance dynamics of bacteria in human or animal populations by identifying linked resistance to antimicrobial agents (cross- or co-resistance) with a non-molecular method.

Year: 2017

subject: Eighteenth century

description: The article analyses the relationship between body, mind and soul in Laurence Sterne’s The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman (1759-1767). Starting from a famous “sartorial” metaphor, in the third book of the novel, according to which the body-mind relationship is akin to that of a jerkin and its lining, the article deals with the metaphors of the body as garments, which allude to human sexual sphere through puns and double-entendres. Notwithstanding the reference to Stoic doctrines contained in the above-mentioned metaphor and elsewhere in the novel, as for instance in the motto from Epictetus placed as an epigraph at its beginning, the relationship between the human being and his/her soul is often expressed in corporeal terms. This relationship, however, is communicated in ambiguous ways: both as the embodiment of the soul and as the spiritual elevation of the body. Perhaps this ambiguity is conquered by Sterne’s very writing that gives body and soul to man’s desires and needs.

In order to explore potential effects, two main experiments were developed, which examined French production and perception by monolingual native speakers of English before and after exposure to French film. Across both experiments, two variables were selected for observation: high rounded vowels (/y/ and /u/) and consonant voicing (VOT). The production component of the dissertation investigated whether exposure to French film aided in the ability of monolingual American English speakers (n=74) to shadow French words containing high rounded vowels, /y/ and /u/, as tested through acoustic analyses and native French listener perceptual judgements (n=221). Perception of high rounded vowels and consonant voicing were examined using a perceptual assimilation task with category goodness ratings and a binary forced-choice voicing identification task, respectively. With regard to the role of foreign film in non-native speech production, results indicated that a single session of exposure to French film had a small but significant effect on shadowing of French /y/, which was also perceptible to native French listeners. Shadowing of /u/, however, was not significantly affected by exposure. Additionally, while the acoustic analysis of VOT did not reveal any significant effects of film, native French listeners perceived post-film exposure productions to be significantly more target-like than pre-film exposure productions. This finding suggests that although VOT was seemingly unaffected by foreign film exposure, participants may have adjusted alternative acoustic correlates of voicing and that these modifications were perceptible to native listeners. In general, these results suggest that while potential effects of film are present, they are highly dependent on the variable being observed. Results from the perceptual portion of the dissertation do not provide evidence that film exposure was effective at influencing non-native speech perception for either high rounded vowels or consonant voicing. However, it is suggested that this could be due to the difficulty of the tasks chosen rather than the effectiveness of foreign film. Taken together, the present dissertation provides evidence that exposure to non-native speech via foreign film can affect some aspects of non-native speech learning. It is hypothesized that further sessions may compound these initial benefits, especially in those who are already learning a second language.

description: Because trends in the epidemiology and burden of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are changing, reinvestigating the geographical differences and trend changes is essential. Here we evaluated the latest epidemiologic patterns and trends for GERD, using data from Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019. Annual case numbers, age-standardized rates of prevalence, incidence, and years of life lived with disability (YLDs), and their estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) for GERD between 1990 and 2019 were derived from the GBD 2019 study. Association between GERD burden and socio-demographic index (SDI) was also investigated. In 2019, there were 783.95 million cases of GERD globally. Between 1990 and 2019, the total number of prevalent cases, incident cases, and YLDs increased by 77.53%, 74.79%, and 77.19%, respectively. The global age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized YLD rate (ASYR) increased during this period (EAPC = 0.06 and 0.05, respectively). Tropical Latin America and East Asia had the highest and lowest age-standardiZed prevalence rate (ASPR), ASIR, and ASYR in 2019, respectively. From 1990 to 2019, prevalent cases, incident cases, YLDs, and their corresponding age-standardized rates of GERD were higher in females than males in all years. Higher SDI was associated with lower ASPR, ASIR, and ASYR of GERD in 2019. GERD will continue to be a major public health burden due to increasing numbers of prevalent cases, incident cases, and YLDs. In order to tackle this troublesome disease, it is crucial to understand the changes in both global and regional trends in epidemiology and the burden for policymakers and other stakeholders.
Key messagesThis is the most updated estimate on GERD epidemiology globally, including 204 countries, some of which were not assessed before.The overall burden of GERD continued to worsen with the prevalent cases increasing by 77.53% from 441.57 million in 1990 to 783.95 million in 2019.GERD is likely to remain a common reason for consultation in primary care, and our data may allow for health service provision planning.

description: Das Statistische Bundesamt prognostizierte eine verlängerte individuelle Lebenserwartung der Bevölkerung der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, einhergehend mit einer Verringerung des Anteils jüngerer Menschen. Das wirft die Frage auf, ob diese Entwicklung zu einer verstärkten Inanspruchnahme des Gesundheitswesens führt, die möglicherweise künftig nicht mehr finanzierbar sein wird. Es wird in dieser Stellungnahme versucht, ausschließlich aufgrund vorliegender Gesundheitsdaten eine Antwort zu geben. Dabei wird festgestellt, dass ein längeres Leben nicht unbedingt einhergeht mit einem verlängerten Abschnitt in Krankheit und Pflegebedürftigkeit. Es gibt vielmehr Anhaltspunkte dafür, dass der Alterungsprozess der Bevölkerung nicht zu einem proportionalen Anstieg der Krankheits- und Behinderungslast für das gesundheitliche Versorgungssystem führen muss. Dennoch wird die Erhöhung des Anteils Älterer an der Gesamtbevölkerung, der nicht nur durch die wachsende Lebenserwartung als Ausdruck kultureller, medizinischer und sozialer Entwicklung verursacht ist, sondern auch durch den Rückgang der Geburtenraten, alsbald Anforderungen an die Finanzierung des Gesundheitswesens stellen, über deren Größenordnung es wenig belastbare Daten gibt.
description: The Federal Statistical Office is forecasting an increase of individual life expectancy for Germans, paralleled by a decrease of the proportion of young people in the population. The question arises, whether this development will increase the strain on the German Health system in a way that cannot be financed in the future. This memorandum tries to answer this question solely on the basis of existing health data. It is stated that an extended life span is not necessarily associated with a longer time period of illness and disability. There are indications that the increasing ageing of the population does not lead to a proportional rise in expenditure in health care for the elderly. The increase of the proportion of elderly people does not only reflect improved life expectancy as a consequence of cultural, medical and social developments. Instead, reduction of birth rates will significantly impose constraints of the Health System, the extend of which cannot at present be estimated due to the scarcity of evidence based knowledge.
AUTOMATED SORTING OF PEGS USING COMPUTER VISION

Subjects: Computer vision

description: The thesis covered the creation and testing of a low cost and modular sorting system of pegs used in products by Lafayette Instruments. The system is designed to check peg dimensions through use of computer vision while sorting out nonconforming parts and counting ones that are conforming. Conforming parts are separated into bins of predetermined quantities so that they do not need manual counting. The developed system will save engineers and technicians at Lafayette instruments many man hours from manually sorting and counting the roughly 160,000 pegs a year. The system will be able to sort and count at a speed comparable to a human operator while achieving an overall average accuracy of 95% or higher.

description: A commercial cheese (acid curd) made from pasteurized milk caused a large listeriosis outbreak in Germany from October 2006 through February 2007. The Listeria monocytogenes outbreak strain was identified in humans and in cheese samples from a patient's home and from the production plant. During the outbreak period, 189 patients were affected, which was 97% above the mean case number for the respective time period of the years 2002 to 2005. Of patients with available detailed information on cheese consumption (n = 47), 70% reported to have consumed the incriminated cheese product. Recent European food safety alerts due to Listeria-contaminated cheeses more often concerned products made from pasteurized or heat-treated milk than from raw milk. The findings should be considered in prevention guidelines addressing vulnerable populations.
