description: A rapid, specific and accurate isocratic HPLC method was developed and validated for the assay of abacavir sulfate in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The assay involved an isocratic – elution of abacavir sulfate in Grace C18 column using mobile phase composition consists of (38:62 v/v) of methanol and 10ml of potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate. The wavelength of detection is 255nm.The method showed good linearity in the range of 10-50.0mg/mL. The runtime of the method is 8 mins. The proposed method can be used for routine quality control samples in industry in bulk and in finished dosage forms. In present study, a rapid specific precise and validated HPLC method for the quantitative estimation of abacavir sulfate in pharmaceutical dosage forms has been reported. The developed method can be applied to directly and easily to the analysis of the pharmaceutical tablet preparations. The percentage recoveries were near 100% for given methods. The method was completely validated and proven to be rugged. The excipients did not interfere in the analysis. The results showed that this method can be used for rapid determination of abacavir sulfate in pharmaceutical tablet with precision, accuracy and specificity.

description: The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) has been widely used in research for more than 2 decades and is recognized as the leading measure of burnout. Malaysia is a multi-ethnic country and English is regarded as the second language. Therefore, it is essential to have a culturally acceptable translated Malay version of MBI, which can easily be understood by Malaysians, in order to study the burnout level in our population. Hence, the objectives of this study are to translate, cross-culturally adapt and validate specifically the Malay versions of the Maslach Burnout Inventory – Health Services Survey (MBI-HSS), Maslach Burnout Inventory – Educators Survey (MBI-ES) and Maslach Burnout Inventory – General Survey (MBI-GS) in Malaysia. Intraclass correlation was used to examine the test-retest reliability of the Malay versions of the MBI-HSS, MBI-ES and MBI-GS, while Cronbach’s alpha was used to assess the internal consistency of the subscales and the instruments as a whole. Exploratory factor analysis involving the principle component analysis extraction and varimax rotation were used to investigate the construct validity of the instruments. Overall, high intraclass correlation and Cronbach‘s alpha values were achieved in the Malay versions of the MBI-HSS, MBI-ES and MBI-GS. The eigenvalue in factor analysis revealed all items in the Malay versions of the MBI-HSS, MBI-ES and MBI-GS can be grouped into 3 components, which were very similar to the original English versions. In conclusion, the findings from this study had demonstrated the Malay versions of the MBI-HSS, MBI-ES and MBI-GS were valid and appropriate to be used in Malaysia.

description: Chenin blanc, Mauzac and Chardonnay musts were hyperoxidized using three different oxygen levels fixed according to the maximum oxygen consumption capacity determined for each must. Phenolic composition of the control and oxidized musts and that of the corresponding wines were analyzed by HPLC. The wines were also submitted to sensory evaluation. Hyperoxidation hardly modified phenolic composition of Chenin blanc and Mauzac musts which were in fact almost totally oxidized after pressing. As well, it induced no change in wine quality in these two varieties. In Chardonnay musts, concentrations of caffeoyl and p-coumaroyl tartaric acid, 2-S-glutathionyl caffeoyl tartaric acid and catechin decreased with increasing oxygen supplies. Wines contained larger amounts of phenolic compounds than musts because part of the quinones formed during oxidation were reduced when sulfiting, especially for intemediate oxygen levels. Thus, sulfiting should be omitted or delayed to allow quinone condensation and maximum efficency of the hyperoxidation technique. Hyperoxidized Chardonnay wines were rated higher in quality and lower in color than the control.

description: Crushed grapes of cv. Pedro Ximenez were macerated together with their must for 4, 16, 24 and 48 h at temperatures of 10, 15 and 25°C. The musts obtained after pressing were used for the determination of 14 phenolic compounds from the following fractions: hydroxybenzoic acids, hydroxycinnamic acids, other nonflavonoids, flavan-3-ols and flavonols. The temperature was found not to exert a marked influence on the extraction of the phenolic compounds in the first 16 h of maceration. After that time, however, it had a significant effect, so maceration times longer than 16 h are inadvisable unless subsequent oxidation is applied. The analytical results obtained showed that the flavan-3-ols, catechin and epicatechin were extracted at the highest rates, related with maceration temperature, followed by hydroxbenzoic acids, other nonflavonoids, hydroxycinnamic acids and flavonols. The flavan-3-ol fraction was also extracted in higher proportions under the different conditions assayed, through very closely followed by that of hydroxybenzoic acids.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The idea of collaboration instead of competition among business enterprises in a same level has been growing rapidly. Small and medium sized enterprises as well as large ones are in a search to change their relationships with suppliers. Although there is plenty of literature on the vertical relationship between supplier and customer, fresh and comprehensive academic literature is very scare in the debate of horizontal collaboration among competitors. In this context, the implementation of inter-firm collaboration and networks is accelerating among small firms. Group purchasing also known as horizontal collaboration in purchasing is the most common use inter-firm collaboration among small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) in which the firms join a strategic alliance to gain bargaining power over suppliers. In the first stage, the paper presents a brief overview on the literature of group purchasing, and in the next step a case of horizontal collaboration in purchasing among a group of food SMEs will be discussed. During the methodology progress, data was collected through quantitative questionnaires through direct contact with the SME firms for the pre-implementation time period and the purchasing alliance for the after implementation. Data measurement was done to evaluate the implementation effects of purchasing alliance on both cost effectiveness and lead time aspects. The results illustrate a significant decrease on both purchasing price and delivery time from suppliers.

description: Heatwaves are one of the most concerning consequences of climate change, with record-breaking temperatures becoming more frequent and intense, and projected to continue. Extreme heat is particularly alarming in cities, where it leads to the Urban Heat Island effect. This effect causes higher local temperatures and urban areas to become hotter than surrounding suburban regions and rural areas. This is connected to the presence of more sealed surfaces and higher density of both people and heat-emitting infrastructures. We need to rapidly reduce greenhouse gas emissions to limit climate change. At the same time, we should adapt by diminishing exposure and vulnerability and increasing the overall resilience and adaptive capacity of cities. The deployment of green and blue infrastructures is one of the most effective measures to counteract the urban heat island effect. However, the combination of several strategies adapted to the local circumstances is the most powerful. This policy brief focuses on how to tackle severe heat in cities and provides recommendations, best practices and analytical tools that can be used by local authorities.

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: Blended learning, a convergence of e-learning approach and face-to-face learning, has been regarded as a new paradigm in modern education. The degree of learners' satisfaction with blended learning played a crucial role in evaluating the effectiveness of blended learning adoption. Therefore, this study examined the primary factors affecting learners' satisfaction in blended learning environment. A comprehensive questionnaire was used to assess the impact of six dimensions such as learner, instructor, course, technology, design and environment, on perceived e-learner satisfaction specifically on the e-learning component within the blended learning environment. The respondents for this study were generally young with an average age of 20 years old. Results from univariate regression analysis revealed all six dimensions to be positively associated with perceived e-learner satisfaction. Subsequent multivariate regression analysis evidenced only the design dimension to be the critical factor influencing perceived e-learner satisfaction. This study concluded younger generation prioritized the design dimension to be the most critical factor in their satisfaction towards e-learning component in blended learning environment. Therefore, it may be more strategic for institutions to emphasize on the design dimension in their e-learning implementations within the blended learning environment specifically for younger learners.

Scarcity and survival horror: trade as an instrument of terror in pathologic

Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 360502
subject: Computer gaming and animation

description: This paper questions the extent to which the relative scarcity of both gameplay options and in-game resources in survival horror video games can be read as a subversion of the metaphorical and idealised capitalist systems that underpin many forms of gameplay. While survival horror games do tend to offer an alternative to the usual rhythms of work, reward and empowering reinvestment found in many video games, the dystopian absence of common resources, gameplay and features (particularly that of an in-game economy) can just as easily be read as creating a nostalgic longing and appreciation for the norms of more conventional gameplay. Ice-Pick Lodge's Pathologic (2005) is considered as a rare and potentially subversive example of a survival horror game that creates an atmosphere of terror and uncertainty for the player through the fluctuations and predatory movements of its in-game economy, rather than through the absence of this feature.

description: In order to study the compensation mechanisms related to leaf removal, gas exchange response to defoliation as well as chlorophyll content were investigated in field-grown Pinot noir grapevines. Mature 16 years old bearing plants and 2 years old fruitless potted plants were compared. Defoliation treatments were performed 1 week after full bloom. Besides topping, three levels of main leaf removal (3, 6 or all 12 main leaves retained) were combined with two levels of laterals (all retained or all removed). The single leaf measurements (on the 11th main leaf from the base) were carried out from treatment time to fruit maturity.

description: To achieve greater transit-time reduction and improvement in reliability of transport services, there is an increasing need to assist transport planners in understanding the value of punctuality; i.e. the potential improvements, not only to service quality and the consumer but also to the actual profitability of the service. In order for this to be achieved, it is important to understand the network-specific aspects that affect both the ability to decrease transit-time, and the associated cost-benefit of doing so. In this paper, we outline a framework for evaluating the effectiveness of proposed changes to average transit-time, so as to determine the optimal choice of average arrival time subject to desired punctuality levels whilst simultaneously minimizing operational costs. We model the service transit-time variability using a truncated probability density function, and simultaneously compare the trade-off between potential gains and increased service costs, for several commonly employed cost-benefit functions of general form. We formulate this problem as a constrained optimization problem to determine the optimal choice of average transit time, so as to increase the level of service punctuality, whilst simultaneously ensuring a minimum level of cost-benefit to the service operator.

description: The facile synthesis of a partially protected OSW-1 disaccharide moiety, having a 2-O-p-methoxybenzoyl-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-2-O-acetyl-L-arabinopyranoside structure, was elaborated by glycosylation in a β-stereoselective fashion. The xylopyranose donors were synthesized by a short synthetic approach via convenient selective 1,2-diacetal protection of 3,4-trans-diequatorial hydroxyl group. Regioselective ring opening of 1,2-diacetal-protected substrates efficiently led to the arabinopyranose acceptor with a free 3-hydroxyl group. Glycosylation of the xylopyranose donor with the arabinopyranose acceptor provided the β-disaccharide.

description: A gold(I)-catalyzed regioselective method for the preparation of 3-bromo/iodo-tetrahydropyran-4-one derivatives from homopropargyl acetal is reported. A one-pot procedure based on a gold(I)-catalyzed Petasis–Ferrier rearrangement/cyclization and subsequent electrophilic halogenation was developed. Corresponding hemiacetals were not suitable substrates for the formation of the 3-halo-pyran derivatives. The present transformation is a useful method to readily afford highly substituted 3-halo-tetrahydropyran-4-ones, which are suitable substrates in a variety of reactions in further synthesis.
Determination of the photosynthetic capacity of grapevine leaves

Year: 2015

description: At fully irrigated, container-grown vines (cv. Riesling) kept outdoor, measurements of stomatal conductance and photosynthesis of leaves were performed in the morning and in the afternoon. The results revealed reductions of the photosynthetic capacity (maximal net photosynthesis at saturating light conditions and at saturating CO2 partial pressure) in the afternoon. This observation was associated with a higher sensitivity of stomata to CO2 in the afternoon: 0.0016-mu-bar-1 in the morning, 0.0046-mu-bar-1 in the afternoon. Due to inhibition of photorespiration determinations of photosynthetic capacity in the morning at 1-2% O2 revealed maximal values at lower CO2 partial pressures and, thereby, at maximal stomatal conductance. These values, corrected for photorespiration, were close to those obtained at ambient O2 and high CO2 partial pressures. Thus, it is assumed that in our experiments stomata did not limit the rates of photosynthesis which were determined in the morning. To avoid reduction of photosynthesis by photoinhibition it is proposed to minimize the duration of exposure of leaves to high light and to reduce light intensity to values where photosynthesis begins to reach light saturation.

description: The several factors which control extracellular auxin catabolism were studied in grapevine (Vitis vinifera cv. Gamay), using cells cultured in suspension as a model system. From the results, it is concluded that, contrarily to previous observations with cultured cells, auxin catabolism in the spent medium depends on a massive sequential secretion of both basic and acidic isoperoxidases. It also depends on the secretion of phenolic compounds, characterized as of an 'auxin protector' nature, which modulate the IAA-oxidase activity of the extracellular isoperoxidases throughout the culture period. Thus, unlike observations of peroxidase activities, IAA-oxidase activities are expressed mainly during the beginning of the post-exponential growth phase of the cultured cells, giving to this highly compartmentalized catabolic process an apparent central role in the depletion of the IAA content, once the cultured cells have stopped growing.

description: The aim of the current research project was to characterise the difference in the sweet spot of a standard and modified (bat with pre-stressed wooden inserts) cricket bat, as utilised by amateur batsmen facing amateur bowlers. The project was divided into three parts, experimental, analytical analysis and finite element modelling. An experimental bat and ball test apparatus was developed to measure the difference in performance of a cricket bat with and without modifications. The outcomes of this work showed that the addition of a specified insert in the sides of a cricket bat can significantly improve a cricket bat's performance. The potential to use this type of insert could be employed in any design of bat to improve its performance without any additional modifications to the profile of the existing layout.

description: Three rapid detection assays (ELISA, dsRNA analysis and ISEM) were compared for their sensitivity, specificity, and simplicity in the detection of grapevine leafroll associated closteroviruses (GLRaV). Each was found to have advantages and disadvantages for routine testing. ELISA is sensitive and easy to use, but different antisera are needed to detect different GLRaV types. Because mixing or blending of antisera can produce good results in a single ELISA test, each antiserum does not need to be used separately unless it is important to determine the type of GLRaV present. DsRNA analysis can detect all the types of GLRaV tested but has a relatively low sensitivity and is labor intensive, which makes it unsuitable for testing large numbers of samples. Furthermore, dsRNA does not give unequivocal diagnosis of GLRaV infections. ISEM is sensitive and rapid. However, like ELISA, this technique requires an antiserum to each GLRaV type tested and an electron microscopy. Our recommendation is that ELISA should be used with multiple antisera for large scale testing programs. Samples for which ELISA results are inconclusive should be retested with ISEM and/or dsRNA. When the disease status of an individual sample must be determined conclusively, a few grams of tissue should be processed to concentrate the virus and then subjected to ELISA and examination by electron microscopy with negative staining.

description: Particulate matter (PM) sources at four different monitoring sites in Alexandra, New Zealand, were investigated on an hourly timescale. Three of the sites were located on a horizontal transect, upwind, central, and downwind of the general katabatic flow pathway. The fourth monitoring site was located at the central site, but at a height of 26 m, using a knuckleboom, when wind conditions permitted. Average hourly PM10 (PM with an aerodynamic diameter <10 μm) concentrations in Alexandra showed slightly different diurnal profiles depending on the sampling site location. Each location did, however, feature a large evening peak and smaller morning peak in PM10 concentrations. The central site in Alexandra experienced the highest PM10 concentrations as a result of PM transport along a number of katabatic flow pathways. A significant difference in PM10 concentrations between the central and elevated sites indicated that a shallow inversion layer formed below the elevated site, limiting the vertical dispersion of pollutants. Four PM10 sources were identified at each of the sites: biomass combustion, vehicles, crustal matter, and marine aerosol. Biomass combustion was identified as the most significant source of PM10, contributing up to 91% of the measured PM10. Plots of the average hourly source contributions to each site revealed that biomass combustion was responsible for both the evening and morning peaks in PM10 concentrations observed at each of the sites, suggesting that Alexandra residents were relighting their fires when they rose in the morning. The identification of PM sources on an hourly timescale can have significant implications for air quality management. Implications: Monitoring the sources of PM10 on an hourly timescale at multiple sites within an airshed provides extremely useful information for air quality management. Sources responsible for observed peaks in measured diurnal PM10 concentration profiles can be easily identified and targeted for reduction. Also, hourly PM10 sampling can provide crucial information on the role meteorology plays in the development of elevated PM10 concentrations.

description: An antiserum against an Italian isolate of grapevine phloem-limited isometric virus (GPLIV) was used in an ELISA survey carried out for assessing the natural distribution of the virus and its association with fleck disease. A total of 591 vines of Vitis rupestris were checked for the presence of GPLIV. Of 150 plants with fleck symptoms, 138 (92 %) were ELISA-positive and 12 (8 %) negative. Of 441 symptomless V. rupestris, 435 (98,6 %) were ELISA-negative and 6 (1,4 %) positive for GPLIV. The virus was detected in about 30 % of 694 vines of different origin grown in Apulia (Southern Italy). The highest infection (53 %) was in a commercial vineyard of cv. Italia and the lowest (8 %) in a plot of certified and visually selected rootstocks. Fleck-infected, but not fleck-free V. rupestris contained virus particles and vesiculated inclusion bodies in phloem tissues. LN 33 plantlets derived from in vitro culture of meristem tips from ELISA-positive fleck-infected mother plants were found to be free from GPLIV, as ascertained by ELISA and thin-sectioning. These vines failed to induce fleck symptoms when grafted on V. rupestris. It is concluded that GPLIV is the agent of fleck and, therefore, it should be renamed grapevine fleck virus (GFKV).

Wide-field VLBI observations of the COSMOS field

description: The aim of our project is to observe ∼3000 radio sources in the COSMOS extragalactic field with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 1.4GHz. The goals are to study with statistically relevant numbers the faint radio source population, and so to complement the sensitive multiwavelength COSMOS data with milli-arcsec resolution radio images. The scientific motivation is to investigate the interplay between Active Galactic Nuclei and their host galaxies. The radio ejecta from AGN can severely impact on the way that stars are formed in galaxies - they can either heat the gas and so prevent it from collapsing into stars, or they can compress clouds of gas, thereby triggering star formation. It is therefore necessary to determine which galaxies do have radio-active AGN. Whilst there are several diagnostics, a relatively easy and direct way is a detection in a Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observation. The reason is that the emission needed to make a detection must come from a very small volume in the target object, because the resolution is so high in VLBI observations. Here we present the survey design, observations and calibration, along with a few first results.

description: Representative profiles for particulate matter particles less than or equal to 2.5 µm (PM2.5) are developed from the Kansas City Light-Duty Vehicle Emissions Study for use in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) vehicle emission model, the Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES), and for inclusion in the EPA SPECIATE database for speciation profiles. The profiles are compatible with the inputs of current photochemical air quality models, including the Community Multiscale Air Quality Aerosol Module Version 6 (AE6). The composition of light-duty gasoline PM2.5 emissions differs significantly between cold start and hot stabilized running emissions, and between older and newer vehicles, reflecting both impacts of aging/deterioration and changes in vehicle technology. Fleet-average PM2.5 profiles are estimated for cold start and hot stabilized running emission processes. Fleet-average profiles are calculated to include emissions from deteriorated high-emitting vehicles that are expected to continue to contribute disproportionately to the fleet-wide PM2.5 emissions into the future. The profiles are calculated using a weighted average of the PM2.5 composition according to the contribution of PM2.5 emissions from each class of vehicles in the on-road gasoline fleet in the Kansas City Metropolitan Statistical Area. The paper introduces methods to exclude insignificant measurements, correct for organic carbon positive artifact, and control for contamination from the testing infrastructure in developing speciation profiles. The uncertainty of the PM2.5 species fraction in each profile is quantified using sampling survey analysis methods. The primary use of the profiles is to develop PM2.5 emissions inventories for the United States, but the profiles may also be used in source apportionment, atmospheric modeling, and exposure assessment, and as a basis for light-duty gasoline emission profiles for countries with limited data. Implications: PM2.5 speciation profiles were developed from a large sample of light-duty gasoline vehicles tested in the Kansas City area. Separate PM2.5 profiles represent cold start and hot stabilized running emission processes to distinguish important differences in chemical composition. Statistical analysis was used to construct profiles that represent PM2.5 emissions from the U.S. vehicle fleet based on vehicles tested from the 2005 calendar year Kansas City metropolitan area. The profiles have been incorporated into the EPA MOVES emissions model, as well as the EPA SPECIATE database, to improve emission inventories and provide the PM2.5 chemical characterization needed by CMAQv5.0 for atmospheric chemistry modeling.

description: A gold(I)-catalysed regioselective method for the preparation of 3-bromo/iodo-tetrahydropyran-4-one derivatives from homopropargyl acetal is reported. A one-pot procedure based on a gold(I)-catalysed Petasis-Ferrier rearrangement /cyclization and subsequent electrophilic halogenation was developed. Corresponding hemiacetals were not suitable substrates for the formation of the 3-halo-pyran derivatives. The present transformation would represent a useful method to readily afford highly substituted 3-halo-tetrahydropyran-4-ones, being suitable substrates in a variety of reaction in further synthesis.
