description: Objectives: The transfer of xenobiotic compounds into human breast milk has raised serious concerns in the last few years. The present study is aimed to assess whether simple physicochemical properties exert significant impact on human breast milk transfer of drugs and chemicals. Methods: A large data set of 375 xenobiotic compounds with available experimental milk to plasma (M/P) ratios was systematically compiled from the literature and explored with their physicochemical properties being further analyzed with respect to their extent to transfer into breast milk. Results: Xenobiotic compounds with increased breast milk transfer (M/P ≥ 1) were characterized by enhanced lipophilicity and decreased molecular size (p p p p Conclusions: The present study supports evidence that simple physicochemical properties related with lipophilicity, polarity, molecular size and ionization status exert significant impact on drugs and chemicals transport into human breast milk.

description: Fermentation profiling is a common tool to identify Lactobacillus paracasei from other related members of Lactobacillus genus. Because of the proximate biochemical characteristics, identification based on the fermentation pattern within L. casei group (L. casei, L. paracasei and L. rahmnosus) has considerable limitation. On the other hand, members of L. casei group are genetically very closely related and sequencing of signature region is the most reliable and rapid method of differentiation. In this study, instead of sequencing entire 16S or 23S ribosomal RNA gene, we have sequenced 16s-23s rRNA intergenic spacer region and compared them across the members of L. casei group. We also compiled thirteen signature sequences within 16s-23s ISR rRNA gene of L. casei group members. Our isolated strain (L. paracasei ssp. paracasei-1) resembled 100% and 99% similarity when compared with 16s-23s rRNA intergenic spacer region of L. paracasei and L. casei respectively. Our study summarizes that sequencing of short 16s-23s rRNA intergenic spacer region carries great significance in identification of closely related probiotic bacteria such as the members of L. casei group. The findings of this research could be very much helpful for food and pharmaceutical industries who are dealing with probiotic bacteria.

description: Efficient operation of urban water systems necessitates accurate water demand forecasting. We present daily, weekly, and monthly water demand forecasting using dynamic artificial neural network (DAN2), focused time-delay neural network (FTDNN), and K-nearest neighbor (KNN) models for the city of Tehran. The daily model investigates whether partitioning weekdays into weekends and non-weekends can improve forecast results; it did not. The weekly model yielded good results by using the summation of the daily forecast values into their corresponding weeks. The monthly results showed that partitioning the year into high and low seasons can improve forecast accuracy. All three models offer very good results for water demand forecasting. DAN2, the best model, yielded forecasting accuracies of 96%, 99%, and 98%, for daily, weekly, and monthly models respectively.

description: Context: Brassicaceae plants are associated with protection against cancers due to their glucosinolate contents. Objectives: We investigate fresh leaves, roots and ripe seeds of Lobularia libyca (Viv.) C.F.W. Meissn. (Brassicaceae) to identify their glucosinolate constituents, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities Materials and methods: The glucosinolates were identified using GC-MS analysis of their hydrolysis products and LC-MS analysis in the case of seeds. Disc diffusion (1 mg/disc) and minimum inhibitory concentration (0–160 μg/mL) methods were used to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of seed hydrolysate. In vitro cytotoxicity against colorectal HCT-116, hepatic HUH-7, breast MCF-7 and lung A-549 cells was evaluated for seed hydrolysate (0.01–100 μg/mL) using the sulforhodamine B assay and doxorubicin as a standard Results: Three glucosinolates were identified for the first time in this plant and genus Lobularia. Glucoiberverin was the major compound accumulated in the seeds and leaves, while glucoiberin and glucoerucin were detected only in the seeds. No glucosinolates were detected in roots under the same experimental conditions. Other volatile constituents, e.g., terpenes and fatty acids were only identified in the seeds. The seed hydrolysate showed significant antimicrobial activities against Candida albicans and Pseudomonas aeruoginosa (MIC = 64 and 82 μg/mL, respectively). The seed hydrolysate exhibited a marked selective cytotoxicity in vitro against colorectal, hepatic and breast cancer cell lines. The IC50 values were 0.31, 2.25 and 37 μg/mL, respectively. Discussion and conclusion: The results indicated the antimicrobial activity of L. libyca and the selective effect of the seed hydrolysate as a cytotoxic drug that is potentially more active than doxorubicin against HCT-116.

description: Co(III) complex with a 2-hydrazonylthiazole ligand was synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the inner sphere of the complex, two monoionic ligands are coordinated tridentately forming octahedral geometry around Co(III). Activity of the complex was investigated on MCF-7 breast cancer cell line, with cisplatin (CDDP) as a reference compound. Results showed that after 24-h incubation, Co(III) complex revealed stronger cytotoxic activity compared to CDDP. Treatment of MCF-7 3-D cell model with the complex at 10 μM concentration achieved complete suppression of spheroid growth in almost the same extent as at 100 μM. In combination treatments on MCF-7 spheroids, the complex acted synergistically with CDDP, while additive interaction type was achieved when the complex was applied together with paclitaxel.

description: A diverse population of small extracellular vesicles (EVs) that are released by various cells has been characterized predominantly in bulk, a procedure whereby the individual characteristics of EVs are lost. Here, we used a new nanotechnology-based flow cytometric analysis to characterize the antigenic composition of individual EVs in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Plasma EVs were captured with 15-nm magnetic nanoparticles coupled to antibodies against CD31 (predominantly an endothelial marker), CD41a (a marker for platelets), and CD63 or MHC class I (common EV markers). The total amounts of EVs were higher in the ACS patients than in the controls, predominantly due to the contribution of patients with acute myocardial infarction. For all captured fractions, the differences in the EV amounts were restricted to CD41a+ EVs. The increase in the numbers of EVs in the ACS patients, predominantly of platelet origin, probably reflects platelet activation and may indicate disease progression.

description: Considerable interest has been shown in natural sources and their compounds in developing new therapeutically agents for different diseases. In this framework, investigations performed on this topic play a central role for human health and drug development process. Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill is a medicinal and edible plant showing highly advantageous bioactivity and nutritional value. The main bioactive compounds from its fruits are lignans, derivatives of dibenzocyclooctadiene whereas concerning its leaves, phenolic acids, and flavonoids are dominant. The purpose of this study was to investigate the enzyme inhibitory potential on selected carbohydrate hydrolases, cholinesterases, and tyrosinase of extracts from fruits and leaves of Schisandra in relation with their main bioactive compounds. Furthermore, the interactions between dominant compounds (schisandrol A, schisandrol B, schisandrin B, and cinnamic acid) from extracts and selected enzymes were investigated by molecular modeling and molecular dynamic studies in order to explain at a molecular level our findings.

description: 1. Induction is an important mechanism contributing to drug–drug interactions. It is most commonly evaluated in the human hepatocyte assay over 48-h or 72-h incubation period. However, whether the overall exposure (i.e. Area Under the Curve (AUC) or Cave) or maximum exposure (i.e. Cmax) of the inducer is responsible for the magnitude of subsequent induction has not been thoroughly investigated. Additionally, in vitro induction assays are typically treated as static systems, which could lead to inaccurate induction potency estimation. Hence, European Medicines Agency (EMA) guidance now specifies quantitation of drug levels in the incubation. 2. This work treated the typical in vitro evaluation of rifampin induction as an in vivo system by generating various target engagement profiles, measuring free rifampin concentration over 3 d of incubation and evaluating the impact of these factors on final induction response. 3. This rifampin-based analysis demonstrates that the induction process is driven by time-averaged target engagement (i.e. AUC-driven). Additionally, depletion of rifampin in the incubation medium over 3 d as well as non-specific/specific binding were observed. 4. These findings should help aid the discovery of clinical candidates with minimal induction liability and further expand our knowledge in the quantitative translatability of in vitro induction assays.

description: The correspondence between the mathematician Luigi Cremona (1830-1903) and Quintino Sella (1827-1884) highlights aspects of Sella’s political thought and cultural activity. In particular his aims on Rome “capital of science” and on the Accademia dei Lincei as emblem of national culture, encountered difficulties. In spite of some incomprehensions in the initial phase of their relationship, the harmony of ethical, political and cultural intentions for the progress of the country and the synergies implemented by the two friends led to important results. Among them we can mention the renewal of academic membership with prestigious names of scientists and intellectuals, the establishment of prizes to encourage scientific research, the publication of memoirs of the two classes and the exchanges of periodicals with academies and scientific institutions all over the world.

description: This paper develops a new methodology of spatial econometric modelling for regional public investment in local economies. The approach, based on the financial concept of net present value of cash flows, can be applied in the analysis of regional public investment with long-term financial inputs and outputs. With local public revenues related to spending in the model, one can observe economies of scale of investment with possible saturation effects and a marginal investment multiplier, explaining the extent to which public investment costs translate into public revenues. The main advantage of the proposed model is to behave counter-cyclically due to accumulation over the periods and to cover multi-period investments as well as postponed effects. This paper gives an example of public investment efficiency in Polish NUTS-5 municipalities regions.

description: Die vorliegende Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit dem tribologischen System beim Tiefziehen, das sich aus verzinktem Stahlblech, Werkzeugstahl und flüssigem Schmierstoff bei Raumtemperatur zusammensetzt. Der Schwerpunkt der Arbeit liegt insbesondere auf dem Zusammenhang zwischen dem Reib- und Verschleißverhalten des Tribosystems und der Zusammensetzung und der Topologie der Kontaktflächen. Die Beschreibung des Tribosystems basiert auf der Annahme, dass die Reibung und der Verschleiß durch Adhäsion und Furchung entstehen. Die Untersuchungen folgen einem modularen experimentellen Rahmen, der tribologische Versuche, Oberflächenanalysen und mechanisches Testen verbindet. Die Arbeit beginnt mit einer umfangreichen Übersicht des Stands der Technik, in der die wichtigsten Ansätze bezüglich der Charakterisierung von Reibung und Verschleiß, der Theorie des Reibmechanismus, die bestehenden Reibungsmodellierungsverfahren und das Konzept des dritten Körpers betrachtet werden. Es folgt die Beschreibung der angewendeten Vorgehensweise und der für die Untersuchung genutzten Materialien. Im Hauptteil der Dissertation werden die Ergebnisse der Versuche vorgestellt. Zunächst wird der Einfluss der Oberflächentopologie auf die Reibung betrachtet. Hierbei hängt die Topographie der Werkzeugoberfläche im Wesentlichen von der Art und der Genauigkeit des Endbearbeitungsprozesses ab. Die Ausgestaltung der Blechoberfläche wird durch das dem Walzprozess folgende Dressieren bestimmt. Anhand der Untersuchungen konnten die wesentlichen Eigenschaften der Kontaktoberflächen, die das Reibverhalten des Tribosystems beeinflussen, ermittelt werden. Es wurden Bleche von einem Coil mit stufenweise unterschiedlichen Dressiergraden in Streifenzieh- und Stiftscheibeversuchen untersucht, wobei Werkzeuge mit unterschiedlichen Oberflächenbeschaffenheiten eingesetzt wurden. Ein wichtiger Teil der Arbeit stellt die anschließende Ermittlung des Anteils der Oberflächenstruktur am Reib- und Verschleißverhalten des Tribosystems dar. Bei einem Vergleich zweier unterschiedlicher Arten von Zinkbeschichtung, nämlich der reinen Zinkbeschichtung und der Zink-Magnesium-Beschichtung konnte beobachtet werden, dass eine Änderung der chemischen Zusammensetzung der Beschichtung einen erheblichen Unterschied im Verhalten des jeweiligen Tribosystems zur Folge hat. Diese Erkenntnis ermöglicht weitere Einsichten hinsichtlich des Hauptmechanismus der Reibung beim Tiefziehen.

description: Language and culture are arguably central to identity and it is also the right of every child to maintain these elements of ‘self’. Nevertheless, the Home Office mantra of quickly learning English and ‘new arrivals’ homogenising with British culture and values is at odds with current Scottish educational policy aiming to foster children’s home language. This paper outlines the impact of the recent Mother Tongue Other Tongue multilingual poetry project which allowed pupils to use their home language, or a language they are learning in school creatively, and also reflect upon culture within a mainstream school environment. The themes of multilingualism and multiculturalism explored within the project will contribute to my PhD thesis which explores the extent to which Scottish educational policy is meeting the needs of multilingual children. Regarding the benefits and importance of plurilingualism, I argue that there is a lack of awareness and knowledge on the part of teachers and parents. Furthermore, children’s well-being would be enhanced if their linguistic and cultural heritage were nurtured. The impact of the project on the children and young people involved has been profound - it has given them a voice!
The Nenagh Mutiny of 7-8 July 1865: a re-appraisal

description: Mutinies or ‘affrays’ by regular and militia soldiers were a constant feature of British military life and civil-military relations during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; neither were they absent from the early twentieth century. This article re-evaluates one such event: that by the North Tipperary Militia in Ireland in 1856. The event is set within both a heretofore lacking Irish social and political context and the broader context of British Army mutinies as a whole.

Military Identification: Identity Discs and the Identification of British War Dead, 1914-18
Creators: name: Ashbridge, Sarah
Publisher: name: British Journal for Military History
Year: 2020

description: Following the ratification of the 1906 Geneva Convention, in August the British Army approved the design for its first identity disc which was designed to assist with the identification of dead or wounded soldiers. A 1914 decision to produce the discs from compressed fibre rather than from aluminium resulted in an inability to identify thousands of soldiers during and after the First World War and it remained a problem despite the introduction of the double identity disc in 1916, created at the insistence of Sir Fabian War, founder of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. This article reflects upon the development of the British identity disc system between 1906-1916 and considers why so many soldiers became ‘unknown’.

description: While suffering through monotony and deprivations, New Zealand Second World War POWs mentally escaped their confines by imagining their eventual return home. They envisaged returning to a world free from the woes of captivity and war. This paper examines their rehabilitation in Britain. While Britain was not New Zealand, the prisoners expected it to conform to their idealised version of home. However, this paper argues prisoners experienced difficulties during their rehabilitation, and they were destabilised when confronted with the continued presence of the war and captivity.

description: Increasingly, digital learning is being used in classroom practice to enhance learning experiences. In this small scale enquiry I investigated, using quantitative and qualitative data, the impact of using an app on the development of Advanced Higher French learners’ skills for independent learning. The research also explored how the use of mobile technology can impact (positively or negatively) on learners’ metacognition within the context of Modern Languages, and its importance in the development of independent learning skills. The findings suggest that while learners enjoy the flexibility afforded to them by accessing their learning via app, the role of the teacher and the training of both teacher and learner are essential if the learning is to be effective. Attention also needs to be given to how skills for independent learning can be developed effectively both before and during the course. The role of metacognitive ability is pivotal here and opportunities for metacognitive development need to be integrated into course content.
