Natural occurrence and production of tenuazonic acid in wine grapes in Argentina

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract A survey was carried out to determine natural occurrence of tenuazonic acid ( TA ) in healthy and rotten wine grapes samples from different varieties ( n = 37) collected during 2016 vintage in the region of DOC San Rafael (Argentina). In addition, inoculation experiments with three Alternaria alternata strains in wine grapes were done to elucidate TA production and its major influencing factors. The 16.2% (6/37) of total wine grape samples showed TA contamination with 4% (1/25) of incidence in healthy samples (77 μg·kg −1 ) and 42% (5/12) in rotten samples (10–778 μg·kg −1 ). Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah varieties showed TA contamination, whereas Bonarda, Ancelota, Torrontés, Semillón, and Chenin did not. During inoculation experiments in wine grapes, two of three strains were able to produce TA among the evaluated conditions and the highest TA production was observed at 15°C and 25°C after 24 days of incubation. Nutritional composition of grapes results appropriate for A. alternata infection and TA production and, together with the adequate field conditions, favors TA natural occurrence in wine grapes.
Mendelian diseases and conditions in Croatian island populations: historic records and new insights.

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Among Croatian islands, there are several which are known for unusual autochthonous diseases and specific medical conditions that result from the reproductive isolation and specific population genetic structure. These populations are characterized by high degree of genetic isolation, consanguinity, and inbreeding. The reported diseases include Mal de Meleda on Mljet island, hereditary dwarfism on Krk island, familial learning disability on Susak island, familial ovarian cancer on Lastovo island, and several other rare diseases and conditions inherited in Mendelian fashion. We present a historical perspective on how these conditions were first described, interpreted, and assessed. We reviewed the information obtained through genetic research in the past several years, when the genetic etiology of some of these conditions was explained. The disease gene causing Mal de Meleda was first localized at 8q chromosome, and mutations in the ARS (component B) gene encoding SLURP-1 (secreted mammalian Ly-6/uPAR-related protein 1) protein were identified subsequently. The genetic etiology of dwarfism on the island of Krk is explained by a mutation in the PROP1 gene, responsible for the short stature. The search for mutations underlying other monogenic diseases in Croatian islands is under way.

Let’s Start Fooling Ourselves: Strategies for Manoeuvring Within the Micro-Political Influences Surrounding Our Research Practices

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The micro-political and pragmatic ideas introduced by Nik Hassan can change our view about the nature of the field’s crisis from problems with the production of relevant knowledge through theory and methodology, towards our inattention to the power-knowledge politics of our field. Turning to this later possibility allows and requires us to be more foolish and playful about thinking through the nature of and responses to our research crisis, and provides the possibilities for alternative research practices to manoeuvre within and through varying micro-political influences. A few suggestions are offered using this strategy.

Beyond accuracy: Heritage speakers’ performance on two kinds of acceptability judgment tasks

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Abstract This article examines the performance of heritage speakers (HSs) on two types of acceptability judgment tasks (AJTs) as well as their corresponding confidence ratings. Data were collected from 75 native speakers of Spanish who were subsequently divided into three groups: Spanish monolinguals, Spanish-dominant HSs, and English-dominant HSs. An AJT targeting morphosyntax (Task 1) showed that all groups were affected by task stimulus, that is, they were significantly less accurate on the ungrammatical items. A lexically focused AJT (Task 2) revealed the tendency of HSs to accept complex words that are possible yet not attested. Confidence ratings on both tasks were very high overall, and there was a significant relationship between accuracy and confidence. Thus, the data question the assumption made in a number of previous studies that HSs suffer from a lack of certainty in their linguistic intuitions. Finally, between-group effects show that the Spanish-dominant HS group was not different from the monolingual group on Task 1, yet there were significant differences between all three groups on Task 2. By comparing morphosyntactic and lexical phenomena on two tasks administered in the same modality, this research contributes to the discussion of vulnerable domains in heritage language bilingualism.
Vanguardism and the Vanguardist Organization: A Study of the Sandinista National Liberation Front and its Rise to Power

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Vanguardism has generally been studied in the context of the Cuban Revolution, as a guiding framework for revolutionary movements around the world. In Guevara's conception, the vanguard group is ideologically more advanced than the masses; the masses understand the new values, but not sufficiently, while among the vanguard group there has been a qualitative change that allows it to make sacrifices in its capacity as an advance guard. A vanguardist organization exhibits distinctive characteristics; it is capable of rapid change; it has the necessary tactics and can plan insurrection and military operations; and it requires a centralized authority and discipline of the highest order and strong leadership developed over a long period. Historical context and legitimacy are central elements in vanguardism. The vanguardist organization seeks social fitness and legitimacy that is compatible with the dominant social class to gain political control and governmental power. This study describes the vanguardist organization through an examination of the rise of the Sandinista National Liberation Front to power in Nicaragua during the 1970s.

ESO's User Portal: lessons learned

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

ESO introduced a User Portal for its scientific services in November 2007. Registered users have a central entry point for the Observatory's offerings, the extent of which depends on the users' roles - see [1]. The project faced and overcame a number of challenging hurdles between inception and deployment, and ESO learned a number of useful lessons along the way. The most significant challenges were not only technical in nature; organization and coordination issues took a significant toll as well. We also indicate the project's roadmap for the future.
Co-Opted? Exploratory Research on Canadian Resource 'Imperialism' in Postcolonial Tanzania

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Since the mid-1980s and the emergence of the structural adjustment policies (SAPs) and the Washington Consensus3 (WC) in Tanzania, there have been changes in the scope of State sovereignty in Tanzania as elsewhere in the Global South. The limitations of State sovereignty have been particularly apparent vis-à-vis the mining sector. The Tanzanian government has shown visible trends that suggest 'it is operating under considerable pressure' from external forces as it responds more to the Canadian corporate interests. Employing Marxist theoretical framework, and theoretically relying on the earlier works of Marx & Engels (1848/1968), Miliband (1969), Fanon (1963/2004), Rodney (1972/1981), Harvey (2005) and Poulantzas (1980) etc., this Major Paper presents empirical exploratory research on the 'imperialistic' elements of mineral-based trade relations between Tanzania, Canada and Canadian ultinational mining corporations (MMCs) operating in Tanzania.It explores the historical colonial as well as cultural/ethnic leadership and governance structures which could factor in the contemporary – neoliberal trade 'collaboration' between the Tanzanian government, the Canadian government and the Canadian multinational mining companies (MMCs) operating in Tanzania. This research looks at the mineral-based trade relations between Tanzania, Canada and Canadian MMCs operating in Tanzania and highlights the impacts of the Canadian MMCs operations in Tanzania. The research concludes that even though clothed in the language of neoliberal 'sustainable' development discourse, the mineral- based relations between Tanzania, Canada and Canadian MMCs embodies the tenets of European-dominated imperialist practices, and is fundamentally imperialistic.

Work experience as a source of specification errorin earnings models: implications for genderwage decompositions

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

This paper models the bias from using potential vs actual experience in log wage models. The nature of the problem is best viewed as specification error as opposed to classical errors-in-variables.We correct for the discrepancy between potential and actual work experience and create a predicted measure of work experience. We use the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth and the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and extend our findings to the Integrated Public Use Microdata Sample. Our results suggest that potential experience biases the effects of schooling and the rates of return to labor market experience. Using such a measure in earnings models underestimates the explained portion of the male–female wage gap.We are able to separately identify the decomposition biases associated with incorrect experience measures and biased parameter estimates.
Bacterial adhesion and disease activity in Helicobacter associated chronic gastritis.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Ultrastructural examination of biopsies showing Helicobacter pylori associated chronic gastritis reveals close attachment between gastric surface epithelial cells and the organism. The finding of 'adhesion pedestals', which represents a cellular response to the presence of the organism, is analogous to the response of intestinal cells to enteropathogenic E coli. Thus the development of bacterial attachment sites in H pylori associated gastritis might be an indication of pathogenicity. We have therefore explored the relationship between the proportion of organisms forming attachment sites and histological indices of disease 'activity'. Antral biopsies from 40 patients with H pylori positive gastritis were examined histologically and ultrastructurally, and the percentage of attached organisms compared with subjective assessments of epithelial degeneration, mucin depletion, polymorphonuclear and chronic inflammatory cell infiltration. We found a significant increase in the proportion of attached bacteria in cases showing histological epithelial degeneration, and a significant decrease in cases showing intraepithelial polymorph infiltration. The direct relationship between bacterial attachment and cellular degeneration lends further support to a pathogenic effect. Reduced attachment in the face of polymorph infiltration might indirectly reflect aspects of the immune response--namely, blocking of adhesion by IgA, with complement activation and generation of leucotactic factors.
Estimation of the utilization rates of the resources of a dental clinic by simulation

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

This study aimed to calculate the resource utilization rates, patient length of stay, and patient waiting times of a small-scale dental clinic using the discrete-event simulation (DES) technique.Dentists, orthodontists, assistants, clerks, beds, triage areas were considered dental clinical resources in this study.In contrast to the traditional doctor-patient contact calculation of healthcare resource efficiencies, clinical resource efficiencies were calculated using the DES technique.Since the patient's arrival both with and without an appointment, the patient arrival times were calculated with a uniform distribution.According to actual data, 100 patients were treated per day on average, while the number of patients treated by the dentists and orthodontists was simulated as 105 in the simulation model.The utilization rate of the dentists, orthodontists, assistants, and clerks were computed as 65.5%, 77.5%, 35.5%, and 45%, respectively.The beds reserved for dentists, the beds for orthodontists, the triage locations used by assistants, and the registry office where clerks work have a utilization rate of 68.25%, 89.5%, 31.0%, and 99.0%, respectively.The time a patient must spend in the clinic for treatment was calculated a maximum of 155.51 minutes and a minimum of 41.68 minutes.A patient waits an average of 15.45 minutes to complete the dental treatment in this clinic.Patients wait 15.81 minutes for an available staff member and 15.1 minutes for an available location to receive dental treatment.We presented this study as the best example for the dental clinics to provide results that should be obtained in a short time and at a low cost.
Morphological Changes and Function of Calcium Oxalate Crystals in Eddo Roots in Hydroponic Solution Containing Calcium at Various Concentrations

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Morphological changes and function of calcium oxalate crystals in eddo roots in hydroponic solution containing calcium at various concentrations were investigated. Bundles of needle-shaped crystals in crystal idioblasts were tubularly arranged in the peripheral part of cortex in the apical zone of primary roots. Under scanning electron microscopy and optical microscopy, crystals in the idioblasts of roots cultured in 1 mM calcium nitrate solution were larger than those in 0 mM calcium solution but smaller than those in the solutions containing either 15 mM calcium nitrate or 15 mM calcium chloride. The number and area of crystal bundles in the sections of the apical zone in 1 mM calcium nitrate solution were significantly larger than those in 0 mM calcium solution and smaller than those in the solutions containing 15 mM calcium. The calcium mapping image obtained by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry showed that the amount of calcium in crystal idioblasts was increased with increasing calcium concentration in the solutions. However, the weight percentage of calcium per cortex parenchyma cell in root apical zone did not vary significantly with the concentration of calcium in the solutions. In the root zone apart from the root apex having no crystals, the weight percentage of calcium per cortex parenchyma cell in the solutions containing 15 mM calcium was significantly higher than that in either 0 mM calcium or 1 mM calcium nitrate solution. These results suggested that the crystals in the tubular arrangement participated in the regulation of calcium levels in the apical zone of primary roots.
Proprietary Remedies for Constructive Trusts: A Commonwealth Yardstick for Malaysian Courts

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In a previous article published in 2018, the authors had attempted to highlight the issues that will present themselves when a constructive trust is imposed without clear guiding principles pursuant to recent judicial pronouncements on point. Whilst the doctrine of constructive trusts in Malaysia has been accepted as a ?remedial device?, there has been little debate on the effects of such a constructive trust on the parties in the claim as well as other parties outside the claim.? There is much debate in other commonwealth jurisdictions on these but the Malaysian Courts are yet to catch up with this debate.? The primary contribution of this paper is to provide some clarity on the effects of the imposition of constructive trust as a remedial device in Malaysia, some of which could have far reaching implications.This article will attempt to identify and provide some guidance from other commonwealth countries for the Malaysian courts to use as a yardstick when deciding on the imposition of proprietary remedies pursuant to constructive trust.
The Effect of Service Quality Dimensions, Perceived Value, Customer Satisfaction, and Brand Love toward Customer Retention on First Media’s Subscribers

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

In the dynamic telecommunications sector, customer retention is of paramount importance for companies like First Media in Indonesia, given the rapid technological advancements and increasing demand for high-quality services. This study explores the factors influencing customer retention, including service encounter communication, internet service quality, service convenience, perceived value, customer satisfaction, and brand love. Service encounter communication, service convenience, and internet service quality are examined in relation to their effect on perceived value, customer satisfaction, and customer retention. A comprehensive survey was conducted using Google Forms, with 49 indicators distributed across these variables, and data analysis was performed using Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results indicate that service encounter communication has a positive and significant effect on perceived value, customer satisfaction, and customer retention. Service convenience positively affects customer satisfaction but does not affect perceived value or customer retention. Internet service quality has a positive influence on perceived value. Perceived value enhances customer satisfaction, leading to improved customer retention and brand love, which in turn positively influences customer retention. This study provides valuable insights for First Media to enhance customer retention and satisfaction. However, it has limitations in terms of variable selection and testing, suggesting opportunities for future research to explore additional factors contributing to customer retention and brand management.
