Determination of the water absorption index (WAI) and the water solubility index (WSI)
Creators: name: Schneeweiß, R

description: The hydration capacity of raw materials for extrusion as well as semi-finished products and finished extrudates is an essential quality criterion. On average, the proteins bind water in a weight ratio of 2:1 to 1:10. The water binding properties are influenced by several internal factors and external parameters. Determination of the water absorption index (WAI) and the water solubility index (WSI) is a descriptive characteristic used for the processing of legumes and cereals. For extrusion, it is an inexpensive method because it can be used to characterise raw materials and end products. During extrusion, it determines the amount of water required to be added to the raw materials. For extrudates, it is a sensory characteristic that describes the solubility and mouthfeel when consumed. The water solubility index (WSI) is the quotient of the mass of the dried residue to the mass of the sample in percent. The water absorption index (WAI) denotes the mass of the gel per gram of dry material in percent.

Subjects: Breast self-examination, Female, Students, Public Universities

description: This study investigated the correlates of breast self-examination among female students in public universities, Rivers State. A descriptive correlational research design was adopted for this study with a population consisting of forty-four thousand, eight hundred and sixty-four (44,864) female university undergraduates in Rivers State. A sample size of 1,200 was selected using a multi-stage sampling procedure. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire with a reliability coefficient of 0.74. Data collected were analyzed using point biserial correlation and regression analysis at 0.05 level of significance. The finding of the study showed that the level of practice of breast self-examination among female undergraduates in higher institutions in Rivers State was low (38.2%). Statistically significant relationship was found between practice of breast self-examination and variables such as family history of breast cancer [f(1,1172) = 9051.85, p<0.05], self-efficacy [f(1,1172) = 4187.78, p<0.05], perceived susceptibility [f(1,1172) = 4820.23, p<0.05], and attitude [f(1,1172) = 4925, p<0.05]. It was concluded that the practice of breast self-examination among female students in public universities, Rivers State was low and factors correlated with their practice were: family history of breast cancer, self-efficacy, perceived susceptibility, and attitude. It was recommended among others that, healthcare institutions should help the family members of their patients with breast cancer by assigning health officers to their families to counsel, teach and monitor them practice BSE, and undergraduate students should enhance their self-efficacy by taking out time to learn it constantly until they are able to do it appropriately

description: Gemäß der Statistikbehörde Eurostat gehört Deutschland europaweit zu den Spitzenreitern in puncto Müllverursachung. Zahlreiche verbraucherpolitische Maßnahmen zielen daher auf Verhaltensänderungen der Bürger und Bürgerinnen ab. Solche Maßnahmen basieren – häufig wohl implizit – auf der Theorie des geplanten Verhaltens (Ajzen 1991), die einen Zusammenhang zwischen der Einstellung, der Intention und dem Verhalten einer Person unterstellt. Eine empirische und verbraucherpolitische Schwäche dieser Theorie sind die regelmäßig feststellbaren Diskrepanzen: So werden trotz kritischer Diskussion um die deutsche Wegwerfkultur und des großen öffentlichen Interesses an einer Reduzierung der Ressourcenverschwendung umweltbewusste Einstellungen von den Verbrauchern kaum in tatsächliches Verhalten übertragen. Diese Diskrepanzen zwischen Einstellung, Intention und Verhalten sind in diesem Beitrag Gegenstand einer theoriegeleiteten empirischen Studie, deren Ergebnisse abschließend kritisch gewürdigt und daraus resultierende Handlungsempfehlungen genannt werden.

description: The amplitude of weak lensing should increase with source distance, rising steeply behind a lens and saturating at high redshift, providing a model-independent means of measuring cosmic geometry. We measure the amplitude of weak lensing with redshift for three massive clusters, A370 (z=0.375), ZwCl0024+17 (z=0.395) and RXJ1347-11 (z=0.451), using deep, three-colour Subaru imaging. We define the depth of lensed populations with reference to the COSMOS and GOODS fields, providing a consistency check of photo-z estimates over a wide range of redshift and magnitude. The predicted distance-redshift relation is followed well for the deepest dataset, A370, for a wide range of cosmologies, and is consistent with less accurate data for the other two clusters. Scaling this result to a new survey of ~25 massive clusters should provide a useful cosmological constraint on w, complementing existing techniques, with distance measurements covering the untested redshift range, 1

Through the kaleidoscope : a common worlds attunement to lively child-place relationships
Creators: name: Van Groll, Nancy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Contextualizing early childhood pedagogies within the 21st century requires a readjustment of the lens through which early childhood education (ECE) is viewed and enacted. Provoked by Taylor and Pacini-Ketchabaw’s (2015) statement that “we can no longer afford the illusion of our separateness from the rest of the natural world” (p. 45), this thesis seeks to untangle and re-tangle the complexities of reconfiguring human relationships with(in) the places we inhabit, experience and hold as meaningful. I look to reconceptualize what early childhood pedagogy might look like in the Anthropocene if educators and children attune to our relationships with(in) place. Explorations into the pedagogical possibilities of enacting place-conscious practices are innovative research engagements that make visible ways of living and learning reciprocally in times of climate precarity. A variety of theoretical and epistemological traditions such as developmental and environmental psychology; ecojustice and sustainability initiatives; and postcolonial, feminist and Indigenous research, are critically analyzed in order to deconstruct romanticized and capitalistic assumptions of nature as pedagogical or developmental resource. Using a narrative methodological approach informed by a common worlds theoretical framework, research was undertaken with four four-year-old children at a forest preschool in British Columbia to surface and assemble rich, detailed and relational insight into place-child relationships. Data were collected using pedagogical narration and conversive wayfinding and analyzed from a lively storytelling approach conceptualized as a spiral of attunement. The stories created and retold offer an opportunity to disrupt artificial nature/culture binaries embedded in ECE practices, to assemble place-conscious pedagogies that resist anthropocentrism, and to reconceptualize methodological approaches to early childhood studies. Opportunities to re-examine the ethical responsibilities of 21st century early childhood educators and to expand common notions of well-being to be inclusive to more-than-human community members are suggested. Learnings could ultimately inform early childhood educators while they make pedagogical choices, inspire researchers to examine similar questions, and motivate policy makers to reconsider what is important in decision-making in the early years.

description: Im folgenden Artikel werden die zentralen Ergebnisse einer im Jahr 2015 von der Arbeiterkammer Wien durchgeführten Studie vorgestellt. Mittels einer repräsentativen Online-Umfrage sowie einer qualitativen Befragung wurde der Frage nachgegangen, wie lange Produkte in privaten Haushalten genutzt und warum diese ersetzt werden. Die Erhebung orientierte sich dabei nicht nur an den Produkten und den technischen Mängeln, ein reiner Fokus auf die vieldiskutierte "geplante Obsoleszenz" erscheint zu kurz. Der gewählte Ansatz nimmt die Perspektiven der KonsumentInnen in den Blick: Indem Beschaffungsgründe und Einflüsse auf Ersatzkäufe analysiert werden, werden vielfältige Einflussfaktoren auf die Nutzungsdauer von Produkten sichtbar.

description: We have measured the distributions of protons and deuterons produced in high energy heavy ion Au+Au collisions at RHIC over a very wide range of transverse and longitudinal momentum. Near mid-rapidity we have also measured the distribution of anti-protons and anti-deuterons. We present our results in the context of coalescence models. In particular we extract the "volume of homogeneity" and the average phase-space density for protons and anti-protons. Near central rapidity the coalescence parameter $B_2(p_T)$ and the space averaged phase-space density $ (p_T)$ are very similar for both protons and anti-protons. For protons we see little variation of either $B_2(p_T)$ or the space averaged phase-space density as the rapidity increases from 0 to 3. However both these quantities depend strongly on $p_T$ at all rapidities. These results are in contrast to lower energy data where the proton and anti-proton phase-space densities are different at $y$=0 and both $B_2$ and $f$ depend strongly on rapidity.

Digital soil mapping to enhance climate change mitigation and adaptation in the Lower Fraser Valley using remote sensing
Creators: name: Paul, Siddhartho Shekhar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Globally, the agriculture sector is constantly being challenged by multiple climate change-induced stresses while agricultural activities are responsible for a large portion of global greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, agroecosystems have a sizable potential to mitigate climate change through the sequestration of atmospheric carbon-dioxide as soil organic carbon (SOC); a key soil quality parameter that can also enhance climate change adaptation. Although the dual benefits of SOC are well established, intensive agricultural production and associated land use/land cover (LULC) changes continue to drive large declines in SOC. Alternatively, sustainable LULC practices can potentially reverse this trend and improve SOC stocks. Digital soil mapping (DSM) using remote sensing can help elucidate SOC dynamics associated with LULC change and agricultural management practices by producing spatially explicit information on SOC at the field- and landscape-scales. In this research, I developed and applied innovative DSM techniques to study the spatiotemporal changes in SOC and related soil properties in the Lower Fraser Valley (LFV), one of the most intensive agriculture regions of British Columbia, Canada. At the field-scale, I evaluated various sampling strategies for DSM using unmanned aerial vehicle imagery, mid-infrared spectroscopy and geostatistical models to identify the most cost-effective approach. At the landscape-scale, using Landsat satellite imagery and machine learning tools, I produced maps of soil workability thresholds (WT) for the agricultural lands in Delta and then, assessed the SOC dynamics across the entire LFV since 1984. My analysis identified that 40% of Delta’s agricultural lands had a WT of <30%, making them extremely vulnerable to the shifting precipitation patterns expected for the region. In addition, 61% of LFV lost SOC, 12% of the region gained SOC, while 27% remained unchanged between 1984 and 2018. Areas that lost the most SOC were those that had experienced changes in LULC; however, I concluded the majority of SOC loss occurred due to agricultural practices. The dissertation contributes to devising cost-effective approaches to quantify and monitor changes in SOC at the field- and landscape-scales that can help in the development of effective agricultural climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.

description: Dieser Beitrag befasst sich mit den Herausforderungen sozialer Innovationen für den klassischen Verbraucherschutz. Er fokussiert sich beispielhaft auf "neue Konsum- und Nutzungsformen", die von Verbrauchern praktiziert werden, um gebrauchte Produkte als "Second-Hand" weiter zu nutzen. Der Wiederverkauf oder Tausch gebrauchter Produkte kann online und offline erfolgen. Danach werden zwei zentrale Herausforderungen sozialer Innovationen für die Verbraucherarbeit skizziert: Es besteht ein "Strukturierungsproblem", weil der Anbieter-Nachfrager-Dualismus, auf den der klassische Verbraucherschutz fußt, aufgeweicht wird. Und es besteht ein "Verhaltensproblem", weil soziale Innovationen oft weniger nach rechtlichen Schutzmechanismen rufen, sondern häufig auf Vertrauensmechanismen basieren. Der Beitrag wendet sich dann neuen Konsumformen zu, die der Weiternutzung gebrauchter Produkte dienen. Ausgehend von den in der Verbraucherforschung diskutierten Verbraucherleitbildern werden ihre Potenziale und Risiken betrachtet. Aus diesen ergeben sich für Verbraucherorganisationen neue Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten, die diskutiert werden.

description: Adjoint field methods are both elegant and efficient for calculating sensitivity information required across a wide range of physics-based inverse problems. Here we provide a unified approach to the derivation of such methods for problems whose physics are provided by Poisson's equation. Unlike existing approaches in the literature, we consider in detail and explicitly the role of general boundary conditions in the derivation of the associated adjoint field-based sensitivities. We highlight the relationship between the adjoint field computations required for both gradient decent and Gauss-Newton approaches to image formation. Our derivation is based on standard results from vector calculus coupled with transparent manipulation of the underlying partial different equations thereby making the concepts employed here easily adaptable to other systems of interest.

description: A debated topic in star formation theory is the role of magnetic fields during the protostellar phase of high-mass stars. It is still unclear how magnetic fields influence the formation and dynamics of massive disks and outflows. Most current information on magnetic fields close to high-mass protostars comes from polarized maser emissions, which allows us to investigate the magnetic field on small scales by using very long-baseline interferometry. The massive star-forming region W75N contains three radio continuum sources (VLA1, VLA2, and VLA3), at three different evolutionary stages, and associated masers, while a large-scale molecular bipolar outflow is also present. Very recently, polarization observations of the 6.7 GHz methanol masers at milliarsecond resolution have been able to probe the strength and structure of the magnetic field over more than 2000 AU around VLA1. The magnetic field is parallel to the outflow, suggesting that VLA1 is its powering source. The observations of water masers at 22 GHz can give more information about the gas dynamics and the magnetic fields around VLA1 and VLA2. The NRAO Very Long Baseline Array was used to measure the linear polarization and the Zeeman-splitting of the 22 GHz water masers in the star-forming region W75N. We detected 124 water masers, 36 around VLA1 and 88 around VLA2 of W75N, which indicate two different physical environments around the two sources, where VLA1 is in a more evolved state. The linear polarization of the masers confirms the tightly ordered magnetic field around VLA1, which is aligned with the large-scale molecular outflow, and also reveals an ordered magnetic field around VLA2, which is not parallel to the outflow.

description: Premna cordifolia Roxb. is one of the popular herbs consumed by the Malaysian community. This herb is cherished for its phytochemicals and antioxidant contents that contribute to many health benefits. The aroma compounds responsible for this P. cordifolia functional drink were evaluated by solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME). In contrast, a hedonic test was carried out to assess the sensory acceptability towards the drink. Results revealed that P. cordifolia functional drink prepared using WF_2 was the most accepted by consumers. Overall, volatile analysis exhibited 35 compounds. Specifically, for WF_2 P. cordifolia functional drink contained higher alcohol compounds comprising (E)-3-hexen-1-ol, 1-hexanol, 1-octen-3-ol, 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, and 1-nonanol. These compounds contributed to green, herbal, fresh, and earthy odour notes. Besides colour, aroma, and texture, panellists preferred P. cordifolia functional drink prepared by WF_2 and gave a high mean score in taste, bitterness, aftertaste, and overall acceptability. Therefore, it was concluded that WF_2 was the most appropriate sample preparation to produce P. cordifolia functional drink.
Authentication of rhizobia (screening strains for nodulation)

description: Authentication is the term used to obtaining proof that a given isolate is indeed the nodulating rhizobium. Ideally, a putative nodulating strain is tested for its ability to nodulate legume species from which it was originally isolated (Koch’s postulates). Alternatively, the rhizobial strain could be tested on another legume species from the same cross-inoculation group, particularly when a small-seeded legume can be substituted for a large-seeded one. Large-seeded legumes like beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), Leonard jars and growth pouches are recommended as growth units for authentication, although beans with small seeds can be successfully grown in glass tubes (Somasegaran and Hoben, 1994).

description: Many new physics models beyond the standard model ($SM$) can give rise to the large anomalous top couplings $tqg$ ($q=u$ and $c$). We focus our attention on these couplings induced by the topcolor-assisted technicolor ($TC2$) model and the littlest Higgs model with $T$-parity (called $LHT $ model), and consider their contributions to the production cross section and the charge asymmetry for $tW$ production at the $LHC$. We find that the anomalous top coupling $tqg$ induced by these two kinds of new physics models can indeed generate sizable charge asymmetry. The correction effects of the $LHT $ model on the production cross sections of the processes $pp\rightarrow tW^-+X$ and $pp\rightarrow \bar{t}W^++X$ are significant large, which might be detected at the $LHC$.

description: Inspired by spin-electric couplings in molecular magnets, we introduce in the Kitaev honeycomb model a linear modification of the Ising interactions due to the presence of quantized cavity fields. This allows to control the properties of the low-energy toric code Hamiltonian, which can serve as a quantum memory, by tuning the physical parameters of the cavity modes, like frequencies, photon occupations, and coupling strengths. We study the properties of the model perturbatively by making use of the Schrieffer-Wolff transformation and show that, depending on the specific setup, the cavity modes can be useful in several ways. They allow to detect the presence of anyons through frequency shifts and to prolong the lifetime of the memory by enhancing the anyon excitation energy or mediating long-range anyon-anyon interactions with tunable sign. We consider both resonant and largely detuned cavity modes.

description: According to the recent practice in Laopingzi Village, Jiaopingdu Town, Luquan Yi and Miao Autonomous County (Luquan County hereinafter) in dry and hot valley of Jinsha River, the development of Zanthoxylum schinifolium Sieb. et Zucc planting industry can help farmers gradually get rid of poverty and achieve a virtuous cycle of ecological environment. It is a sustainable poverty alleviation way. Based on the three aspects of soil properties, climatic conditions, and topographical conditions influencing the growth of Z. schinifolium, this paper selected eight evaluation factors to establish a suitability evaluation system for Z. schinifolium, used the analytic hierarchy process to determine the indicator, and determined the weight of the evaluation indicators. Besides, it calculated the comprehensive suitability index of land suitability of Z. schinifolium and evaluated the suitability of Z. schinifolium land in Jiaopingdu Town of Luquan County. The results showed that the suitable area for the cultivation of Z. schinifolium in Jiaopingdu Town reached 7 270.78 ha, accounting for 88.69 % of the study area; the area of unsuitable land was 922.07 ha, accounting for 11.31% of the study area. Among the suitable land areas, the high suitability area reached 562.99 ha, accounting for 7.79%; the moderate suitability area was 2 206.76 ha, accounting for 28.61%; the low suitability area was 4 599.03 ha, accounting for 63.6%. Based on the results of suitability evaluation, it came up with pertinent recommendations for the development of Z. schinifolium industry in Jiaopingdu Town.

description: Beyond tertiary lymphoid structures, a significant number of immune rich areas without germinal center-like structures are observed in non-small cell lung cancer. Here, we integrated transcriptomic data and digital pathology images to study the prognostic implications, spatial locations, and constitution of immune rich areas (immune hotspots) in a cohort of 935 lung cancer patients from the TCGA. A high intratumoral immune hotspot score, which measures the proportion of immune hotspots interfacing with tumor islands, was correlated with poor overall survival in lung squamous cell carcinoma but not in lung adenocarcinoma. Lung squamous cell carcinomas with high intratumoral immune hotspot scores were characterized by consistent upregulation of B cell signatures. Spatial statistical analyses conducted on serial multiplex immunohistochemistry slides further revealed that only 4.87% of peritumoral immune hotspots and 0.26% of intratumoral immune hotspots were tertiary lymphoid structures. Significantly lower densities of CD20+CXCR5+ and CD79b+ B cells and less diverse immune cell interactions were found in intratumoral immune hotspots compared to peritumoral immune hotspots. Furthermore, there was a negative correlation between the percentages of CD8+ T cells and T regulatory cells in intratumoral but not in peritumoral immune hotspots, with tertiary lymphoid structures excluded. These findings suggest that the intratumoral immune hotspots reflect an immunosuppressive niche compared to peritumoral immune hotspots, independent of the distribution of tertiary lymphoid structures. A balance towards increased intratumoral immune hotspots is indicative of a compromised anti-tumor immune response and poor outcome in lung squamous cell carcinoma.

Yield estimation in common bean
Creators: name: Savvas Dimitrios, Vougeleka Vasiliki
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: The use of common bean as fresh consumption consists in green pods. Farmers require yield estimates to plan harvest and determine storage requirements and profit. In contrast, scientists study yield to determine the impact of factors such as drought, salt or other abiotic or biotic stressors, whilst consumers are interested in fresh pods for their agronomic and nutrient status. Hence, yield is an important factor in evaluating landraces or cultivars of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.).

Toward XAI for Intelligent Tutoring Systems : a case study
Creators: name: Putnam, Vanessa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Our research is a step toward understanding when explanations of AI-driven hints and feedback are useful in Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS). We added an explanation functionality for the adaptive hints provided by the Adaptive CSP (ACSP) applet, an intelligent interactive simulation that helps students learn an algorithm for constraint satisfaction problems. We present the design of the explanation functionality and the results of an exploratory study to evaluate how students use it, including an analysis of how students’ experience with the explanation functionality is affected by several personality traits and abilities. Our results show a significant impact of a measure of curiosity and the Agreeableness personality trait and provide insight toward designing personalized Explainable AI (XAI) for ITS.

description: A policy brief published by the Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society. The gig economy is an economic model where people use digital platforms to find work. A 2021 report by the Federation of Kenya Employers notes that employment in the informal sector has been steadily increasing from 10% in 1974 to 83% in 2018. The inverse is true for employment in the formal sector where employment rates have reduced from 90% in 1974 to 18% in 2018. Furthermore, data from Statista indicates that in 2019, for instance, 768,000 new informal jobs were created in the country compared to 78,600 new formal jobs. Therefore, the present and future of work in Kenya is one where workers will be engaged in multiple gig-work undertakings with varied levels of formality and high levels of flexibility. This policy brief offers concrete policy recommendations towards building a solid foundation for gig economy, digital platforms and gig workers within Kenya's society.
Galaxy Kinematics with VIRUS-P: The Dark Matter Halo of M87

description: We present 2-D stellar kinematics of M87 out to R = 238" taken with the integral field spectrograph VIRUS-P. We run a large set of axisymmetric, orbit-based dynamical models and find clear evidence for a massive dark matter halo. While a logarithmic parameterization for the dark matter halo is preferred, we do not constrain the dark matter scale radius for an NFW profile and therefore cannot rule it out. Our best-fit logarithmic models return an enclosed dark matter fraction of 17.2 +/- 5.0 % within one effective radius (R_e ~ 100"), rising to 49.4 (+7.2,-8.8) % within 2 R_e. Existing SAURON data (R < 13"), and globular cluster kinematic data covering 145" < R < 540" complete the kinematic coverage to R = 47 kpc. At this radial distance the logarithmic dark halo comprises 85.3 (+2.5,-2.4) % of the total enclosed mass of 5.7^(+1.3)_(-0.9) X 10^(12) M_sun making M87 one of the most massive galaxies in the local universe. Our best-fit logarithmic dynamical models return a stellar mass-to-light ratio of 9.1^(+0.2)_(-0.2) (V-band), a dark halo circular velocity of 800^(+75)_(-25) kms, and a dark halo scale radius of 36^(+7)_(-3) kpc. The stellar M/L, assuming an NFW dark halo, is well constrained to 8.20^(+0.05)_(-0.10) (V-band). The stars in M87 are found to be radially anisotropic out to R ~ 0.5 R_e then isotropic or slightly tangentially anisotropic to our last stellar data point at R = 2.4 R_e where the anisotropy of the stars and globular clusters are in excellent agreement. The globular clusters then become radially anisotropic in the last two modeling bins at R = 3.4 R_e and R = 4.8 R_e. As one of the most massive galaxies in the local universe, constraints on both the mass distribution of M87 and anisotropy of its kinematic components strongly informs our theories of early-type galaxy formation and evolution in dense environments.
