description: Impaired wound healing particularly in diabetics creates a significant healthcare burden. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of keratin-butyrate fibers (FKDP +0.1%NaBu) in a full-thickness skin wound model in 30 diabetic rats. Physicochemical examination showed that the obtained dressing possesses a heterogeneous structure and butyrate was slowly released into the wound. Moreover, the obtained dressing is nontoxic and supports cell growth. In vivo results showed that keratin-butyrate dressing accelerated wound healing on days 4 and 7 post-injury (p < .05). Histopathological and immunofluorescence examination revealed that applied dressing stimulated macrophage infiltration, which favors tissue remodeling and regeneration. The dressing was naturally incorporated into regenerating tissue. The highest mRNA expression level of interleukin 1β (IL-1β) was observed during the first 2 weeks in the control wounds compared to FKDP +0.1%NaBu treated wounds, in which IL-1β was significantly decreased. In FKDP +0.1%NaBu dressed wounds, mRNA expression of IL-10 and VEGF increased significantly (p < .05) from day 14. Keratin-butyrate treated wounds enhanced mRNA expression of keratin 16 and 17 and zonula occludens protein-1 and junctional adhesion molecules (p < .05) on days 14, 21, and 28 post-injuries. Our study showed that keratin butyrate dressing is safe and can efficiently accelerate skin wound healing in diabetic rats.

description: Natural fibers investigated in this study are mainly waste from agro industry. The importance of natural fibers in building composites is increasing, as they partially replace nonrenewable natural resources acting as reinforcement in composite materials such as concrete, mortar and earth bricks. Their recycling requires a detailed analysis of the physical, chemical, and mechanical characteristics of the fibers. In this study, tropical natural fibers i.e., palm oil flower fibers (POFL), palm oil fruit fibers (POFR), sugarcane bagasse (Sc), coconut coir (Cn), and banana spine (Bs) were investigated, and their characteristics such as cross-section, density, water absorption, thermogravimetry, chemical composition, and tensile strength of fibers were determined. The area of these fibers ranges from 0.03 mm2 to 0.07 mm2. POFL fibers have highest density (1.36 g/cm3), while Cn fibers have lowest density (0.79 g/cm3). Chemical composition of fibers shows that cellulose content of tropical fibers ranges from 37–54%, followed by hemicellulose 5–27%, and lignin and cutins content 5–25%. Mechanical characteristics of tropical fibers show that tensile strength of these fibers fluctuates between 119–347 MPa. Tensile load-deflection behavior of Cn, Bs, POFL, and POFR fibers is elastoplastic with hardening, while the behavior of Sc fibers is pseudo elastic.

description: Achieving resistance to sedimentation of carbonyl iron powders (CIPs) in ethanol is important to fabricate reliable magnetorheological suspensions. The traditional method to improve the sedimentation stability is to add dispersants, but this approach can suffer from high costs and toxicity of added surfactants. In this study, the surface of CIPs was modified with 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) or tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) to enhance the sedimentation stability of CIP suspensions without using toxic dispersants. After coating APTES or TEOS on the CIP surface, the surface energy of the CIP powders increased, which was attributed to the increased amino or hydroxyl groups on the CIP surface due to APTES or TEOS, respectively. The Gibbs free wetting enthalpy (ΔG) was calculated to evaluate the wettability of the modified CIPs, and APTES@CIPs or TEOS@CIPs had a low ΔG, indicating that both had a high thermodynamic spontaneity of wetting in ethanol. The enhanced wettability due to APTES or TEOS coating resulted in low CIP agglomeration, which resulted in APTES@CIPs or TEOS@CIPs dispersions having smaller average particle sizes than pure CIP dispersions. Therefore, APTES@CIPs or TEOS@CIPs showed more than 2 times slower sedimentation velocity than pure CIPs, resulting in enhanced sedimentation stability.

The Interplay between the Use of Force in International Relations and the Inherent Right of Self-Defence
Creators: name: Rose Thomas, Surya
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: International law

description: The UN Charter, in Article 2(4), clearly prohibits the use of force by states to maintain international peace and security, and Article 51 stipulates the right to self-defence. A narrow interpretation of Article 2(4) and a broader interpretation of Article 51 often serve as the formula for states to justify their use of force. This article discusses the interplay between Article 2(4) and Article 51 of the UN Charter by examining the justifications states provide when they use force against one another. It further analyzes both aspects of collective self-defence and distinguishes between pre-emptive self-defence and anticipatory self-defence. Are pre-emptive and anticipatory self-defence approved by the UN Security Council? This article also explores how the threshold for the principle of self-defence has been raised in efforts to eradicate terrorism.

News about the first Arabic printing house in Moldavia and about the work of the printer Duca Sotiriovici from Thassos
Creators: name: Chitulescu, Gabriel
Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2024

description: During the reign in Moldavia of the Mavrocordati brothers, Constantin and Ioan, the only printing workshop in Iasi was that of a Greek printer Duca Sotiriovici from Thassos. It seems that at that time, its printing house was the only functional printing house in the whole of Moldova.  Following the analysis of Duca Sotiriovici's Arabic and printed books, we found his involvement in organizing the Arab printing house at St. Sava Monastery.  In this topic, we discussed, first of all,  the dispersal and reuse of the inventory of the Holy Sepulchre printing house at St. Sava Monastery in Iasi. I showed Duca Sotiriovici's involvement in organizing  the Arab printing house at St. Sava, describing the Slavic-Romanian Clock, Iasi, 1743-1746 as a contribution to the Old Romanian Bibliography, a book published near the time of the establishment of the Arab printing house. We proved that Duca Sotiriovici did not stop printing new books after 1752 as all scholars have considered so far, stating that two Greek books: The Apostolic Nets  (1756) and Light in the Darkness  (1757) justify Duca S.'s purchase of a new letter for his workshop in 1751 and confirm the reality of the renewal of the princely privilege of 1756. Also now, we have described two new Greek titles that are added to the Old Romanian Bibliography: Sinopsis, Iași, 1757 and Ekloge..., The Great Lavra, 1759, thus having a total of 4 new titles, contributions to BRV. Therefore, Duca Sotiriovici's list of prints of 12 Romanian and Greek titles + 3 Arabic titles is now joined by 5 new titles, of which 4 represent contributions to the Old Romanian Bibliography. The present study also shows that Duca Sotiriovich was a talented engraver, and new engravings executed by him are now presented; this obviously proves that he was able to execute the set of letters for the Arabic printing house in Iasi and even to make a coat of arms for Patriarch Sylvester of Antioch.

description: Plants number is an essential field phenotypic trait that affects the growth status and final quality of crop. In recent years, the integration of remote sensing technology and deep learning technology has provided a solution to the problem of crop plant counting in field. However, most of the previous studies have selected fixed crops (such as rice, wheat) for research, and few studies have reported the limitations in the application of this technology. In addition, as far as we know, there has been no report on the problem of ramie germplasm resources counting. In this study, in combination with DA (Data Augmentation) and three object detection algorithms, ramie germplasm resources were adopted to explore the accuracy of counting plant number under the condition of dense plant growth. The following functions were tested: (1) the influence of DA on the effect of plant counting; (2) the influence of ground sampling distance (GSD) on the effect of plant counting; (3) the influence of object detection algorithms on ramie detection object. The results showed that after the training sample was expanded by DA, the Precision of ramie plant counting model was increased by 6.630%. FCOS (Fully Convolutional One-Stage Object Detection) could perform better in small object and small sample data (Recall = 0.892, Precision = 0.819，RMSE = 0.089). It was necessary to ensure the consistency of GSD between training samples and verification samples for improving the accuracy of ramie plants counting. The ramie plant counting model has sufficient and stable ability to count ramie plants in the field, which can supplement the traditional manual counting method.

description: The acrylic acid treated rattan fiber reinforced epoxy (RF/Epoxy) composite has been fabricated by taking various weight percentages (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 wt%) of fibers using hand layup followed by compression molding technique. The optimum fiber loading has been determined by regression analysis and it is found that 18 wt% of rattan fiber gives maximum tensile strength. The interaction of rattan fiber with epoxy matrix has been studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) has been used to study the morphology of chemically modified rattan fiber and RF/Epoxy composite. The mechanical, thermal, and dynamic mechanical thermal properties of 18 wt% RF/Epoxy composite have been studied as per ASTM standards. From the results, it is observed that RF/Epoxy composite gives best properties at optimum (18 wt%) fiber loading. The maximum tensile strength and flexural strength of the composite are found to be 47.5 and 121 MPa, respectively, which is better in comparison to other natural fiber composites used for manufacturing different automobile body parts. Hence, it can be concluded that 18 wt% RF/Epoxy composite can be considered as a potential candidate for automotive body parts.

description: Body size is frequently claimed to be a major determinant of animal trophic interactions, yet few studies have explored relationships between body size and trophic interactions in rivers, especially within the tropics. We examined relationships between body size and trophic position (TP) within fish assemblages in four lowland rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin in Cambodia. Stable isotope analysis (based on δ15N) was used to estimate TP of common fish species in each river, and species were classified according to occupation of benthic versus pelagic habitats and major feeding guilds. Regression analysis yielded strong correlations between body size and TP among fishes from the Sesan and Sreprok rivers, but not those from the Mekong and Sekong rivers. The Mekong fish assemblage had higher average TP compared with those of other rivers. The relationship between body size and TP was positive and significantly correlated for piscivores and omnivores, but not for detritivores and insectivores. The body size–TP relationship did not differ between pelagic and benthic fishes. Body size significantly predicted TP within the orders Siluriformes and Perciformes, but not for Cypriniformes, the most species-rich and ecologically diverse order in the Lower Mekong River. We conclude that for species-rich, tropical fish assemblages with many detritivores and invertivores, body size would not be an appropriate surrogate for TP in food web models and other ecological applications.

description: The designing of acoustic material with high efficiency absorption is cutting edge research for acoustician as well as architectures’ in the acoustic industries attracts the material scientist due to its numerous significant characteristic properties. Nondestructive technique such as ultrasonic processing is employed for surface modification of corn husk which changes the interfacial as well as skeletal arrangement in interlocking of fibers with polymer chain. Tensile strength of single corn husk fiber before and after surface treatment was observed to be increasing from 332.57 MPa to 345.16 MPa, which confirms the strong fibrillation due to surface treatment. Further the hardness of the fabricated corn husk composite was found to be 23HV as observed in three different places. Thermal conductivity of the samples increases with temperature supporting the validation of the sample for acoustic application. The high sound absorption performance of the composite classified the material as Class-A type with 0.94 absorption coefficient supported by the different characterization and surface analysis of the composite.

description: A surprising consensus among scholars working on 3 Maccabees is that the story of Philopator’s supernatural intervention appears strikingly similar to an epileptic seizure. Likewise, the same observations have been made by others about Heliodorus’s episode in 2 Maccabees. Surprisingly, none of these scholars appear to be self-aware that this is a consensus, nor do any of them attempt to investigate either ancient perceptions of the medical phenomenon or the impact that the disease could have on the meaning of the stories. It is simply noted in passing and then promptly forgotten or ignored. Connecting the depictions of Philopator and Heliodorus to ancient descriptions of epilepsy, this paper attempts to flesh out an approach to the stories that focuses on interrogating the depictions of epilepsy as a divine punishment. This study then provides a way to better understand what some in early Judaism believed about the people with epilepsy living within their communities. It will be argued that the epileptic characterisation of both leader’s divine punishments serves to underscore and reinforce notions within the community that isolate and ostracise people with epilepsy in and around the early Jewish community.

description: The usage of new cellulosic fibers in industrial applications is massive because of its excellent performances. These fibers are utilized especially for manufacture of high-performance composites. Coconut leaf sheath (CLS) fibers are extracted for leaf sheath of coconut tree. The aim of this paper is to study the possibility of using a natural fiber CLS as an alternative for polymer composites. In the current study, the consequence of NaOH treatment on structural, thermal and morphological behavior of treated and untreated coconut leaf sheath (CLS) fiber in terms of single fiber tensile strength, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (×RD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) has been explored. From SEM analysis, it was identiﬁed globular lumps spread consistently over the ﬁber which could help the mechanical interlock with the resin. The outcomes from the experimentation exposed that the NaOH treatment has impacted in the eradication of amorphous hemicellulose and lignin contents from the CLS fiber surface and in turn resulted in excellent structural and thermal stability behaviour of fiber. The present work endorses the great potential of CLS fibers to be utilized for bio-reinforcement in order to fabricate lightweight composite structures, employed in automobile and structural applications.

description: The continuous basalt fibers (BFs) dyed with cationic dyes (RhB) were prepared through one-step drawing strategy using miscible liquids of phosphorylating starch (PS) cross-linked polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sodium silicate (SS) as infiltration agents. The new method of dyeing was relied on the residual temperature of melt drawing, and the dye molecules were lubricated onto fibers firmly. Different means were used to characterize the color fibers, and a compact layer was formed on the fiber surface. The prepared composite fibers (PVA-SS-PS-RhB/BF) exhibited stable color fastness (washing and rubbing fastness achieved to 4–5 grade). The crosslinking significantly improved the water resistance with dissolved residue up to 80%, and the heightened glass transition temperature was observed. The breaking force of dyed fibers was observed to be 50.3% higher than that of raw fibers, and the breaking elongation was 71.8% higher than the original fibers.

A Metanarrative of Disability in John 5

Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: Disability studies

description: Within Johannine texts, impairment carries associated meanings to the point that the narrative figure is reduced to the impairment rather than having an independent and/or complex identity. A metanarrative of disability exists within these texts, regarding assuming that attitudes, capabilities or attributes relate to particular impairments. This article will apply the concept of metanarrative of disability to John 5:1–15 and use David Bolt’s methodology, that of focusing on a particular impairment to explore the presence and function of a related metanarrative of disability, as an interdisciplinary starting point from which to examine how the assumption of passivity and lethargy operates through references to impaired mobility.  A person with impaired mobility may well function as narrative prosthesis, but their response to Jesus should not then be attributed with iniquity or even malice, as occurs when exegetes use a metanarrative of paralysis to interpret the text. By examining how the John 5:1–15 narrative overrides the individual’s identity, it will be shown that agency is not necessarily completely erased by the author of the text, but more by interpretations invoking assumptions associated with a metanarrative constituted of lethargy and passivity. John 5:1–15 is, whether by design or inadvertently, a social commentary as well as a narrative about Jesus: impaired mobility, as a narrative tool, promotes Jesus’s authority and identity, but it concurrently challenges the assumptions made by a metanarrative of impaired mobility, a fact sometimes overlooked by interpretations of the text which are solely focused on the identity of Jesus.

description: Respiratory tract infections represent the main cause of death from infectious diseases worldwide. SARS-CoV-2 infection (i.e. COVID-19) added to the existing global burden of respiratory tract infections, including tuberculosis. Among nanomaterials for fabric functionalization, graphene, in combination with hydrophobic molecules such as phytochemicals, represents a promising low-cost alternative to antibiotics. In this work, we used graphene and curcumin to create fabric coatings on cotton and polyester for the production of personal protective equipment resistant to infective agents. These coatings ensure the trapping of microorganisms via interaction with SARS-CoV-2 or mycobacteria surface and inhibit microbial infections.

description: Some scholars have claimed that if the exodus described in the bible had occurred, the Egyptians, who had a great obsession with recording almost everything, would have left something written about this event. But is it possible to explain the absence of written documents about the biblical exodus? This research intends to answer this question from the perspective of Gerald Wheeler, according to whom the Egyptians' belief in the magical power of words could explain the absence of written testimonies about the exodus. Bibliographical research was used as a methodology. As a result, it will be pointed out that the lack of written evidence of the biblical exodus can be justified by the conviction that a written account could bring into existence an event that had already occurred.

description: Body size is frequently claimed to be a major determinant of animal trophic interactions, yet few studies have explored relationships between body size and trophic interactions in rivers, especially within the tropics. We examined relationships between body size and trophic position (TP) within fish assemblages in four lowland rivers of the Lower Mekong Basin in Cambodia. Stable isotope analysis (based on δ15N) was used to estimate TP of common fish species in each river, and species were classified according to occupation of benthic versus pelagic habitats and major feeding guilds. Regression analysis yielded strong correlations between body size and TP among fishes from the Sesan and Sreprok rivers, but not those from the Mekong and Sekong rivers. The Mekong fish assemblage had higher average TP compared with those of other rivers. The relationship between body size and TP was positive and significantly correlated for piscivores and omnivores, but not for detritivores and insectivores. The body size–TP relationship did not differ between pelagic and benthic fishes. Body size significantly predicted TP within the orders Siluriformes and Perciformes, but not for Cypriniformes, the most species-rich and ecologically diverse order in the Lower Mekong River. We conclude that for species-rich, tropical fish assemblages with many detritivores and invertivores, body size would not be an appropriate surrogate for TP in food web models and other ecological applications.
St Paul of the Thorns: A Note on Disability, Visual Criticism, and 2 Corinthians 12:7b–10

description: In this note, we introduce readers to St Paul of the Thorns, a painting by Elizabeth Tooth, which is part of an exhibition entitled Reimagining Paul. Using visual arts interpretive methodologies, disability studies, exegesis of 2 Corinthians, and exhibition visitor feedback, we consider the distinctive contribution of visual art to discussions of the apostle Paul and disability. We also reflect on the reciprocal learning potential of public engagement work for the academic study of biblical texts and figures.

description: This study uses a Google Forms survey with 500 student participants to investigate how college students view generative AI tools. The majority of students thought AI improved learning (mean = 3.77) and found it to be user-friendly (mean = 4.03). Additionally, they indicated that they enjoyed using AI (mean = 3.74) and they would be interested in using it to enhance their ability to communicate in English (grand mean = 3.50). Students did, however, recognize drawbacks of AI, including its poor emotional intelligence (mean = 3.83) and difficulty with complicated tasks (mean = 4.12). The study, taken as a whole emphasizes both the possible advantages and difficulties of AI in education.
First-Year International Students and the Language of Indigenous Studies
Creators: name: Thieme, Katja

Publisher: name: Humanities Commons
Year: 2023

description: We advocate for the inclusion of Indigenous studies within first-year writing and academic English courses, particularly those taught to multilingual, international students. We argue that asking international students to learn about local and international Indigenous issues productively intersects with coursework in academic English. Our pedagogical approach emphasizes metalanguage and allows Indigenous studies and explicit language instruction to work in tandem, thereby recognizing the agency of Indigenous scholars and guiding non-Indigenous students in relation to it.
