Influence of peeling and inorganic calcium concentration on the utilisation of giant taro (Alocasia macrorrhiza) corm meal by laying hens

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The effects of peeling and limestone flour level on the utilisation of Alocasia macrorrhiza corm meal (ACM) by laying hens were investigated. Maize-based diets with two concentrations of limestone flour (40 and 60 g/kg) and diets containing 200 g peeled and unpeeled ACM meal/kg with the same levels of limestone flour were fed to five replicate pens containing 10 20-week-old Shaver brown pullets (1635 ± 148 g), each for 105 days. Results showed no interaction or main effects of ACM or limestone concentration on feed intake, egg weight, egg mass, feed conversion efficiency, egg shape index, surface area and Haugh unit (P &gt; 0.05). Feeding whole ACM with 40 g limestone/kg diet reduced hen-day production and shell thickness (P &lt; 0.05) but this was overcome by increasing limestone concentration to 60 g/kg diet. Peeled ACM with both concentrations of limestone flour maintained laying performance and egg quality. We concluded that feeding 200 g whole ACM depresses egg production and shell quality in laying hens, but increasing dietary limestone concentration overcomes this adverse effect. The concentration of limestone flour in the diet has no effect on laying performance. Higher inclusion levels of ACM, calcium source and level that will maintain laying performance and reduce feed cost need to be investigated.
Theatre Across Prison Walls: Using Democratizing Theatre Methodologies to Subvert Carceral Control

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

In spite of the influx of articles on practitioner experience teaching in carceral settings, little has been written around the methodologies that best level the inherent inequity between practitioner and ensemble. This article seeks to respond to some of the questions and concerns around the balancing of power structures by describing the practice of using democratizing theatre-making practices. Rocchio argues that by centralizing some of these theatre-making practices, the uncomfortable divisions between visitor teacher and inside participants can be named; made transparent; and, eventually, dismantled.
Identification of a phytoplasma associated with witches&#8217; broom symptoms in calafate (Berberis microphylla G. Forst.)

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Berberis microphylla G. Forst. ("calafate") is a native berry grown in the Patagonian area of Chile and Argentina. The calafate fruit have important commercial projection, given that contains antioxidant characteristics with high levels of phenolic compounds and anthocyanins. Recently, wild growth of calafate present in Region of Magallanes y la Antártica Chilena has been affected by symptoms of witch's broom, which is associated to infections caused by phytoplasmas. To determine the presence of phytoplasmas in calafate plants affected by these symptoms, symptomatic and asymptomatic samples were analyzed. To identify the phytopathogen, nested polymerase chain reaction (nested-PCR) was used with three pairs of primers (P1/P7, R16mF2/mR1, R16F2n/R2); sequencing of the fragments obtained from PCR and an in silico restriction analysis was carried out on the obtained genomic sequences. Results from nested-PCR showed an expected band of 1.2 kb only in the samples with symptoms. The nucleotide sequence obtained from the amplified DNA fragment had similarity to 99% of other phytoplasmas present in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database, according to a basic local alignment search tool (BLAST) analysis. Restriction analysis indicated that the amplified DNA fragment corresponded to a phytoplasma from the 16SrXIII-f group. In conclusion, the symptoms of witch's broom present in the analyzed calafate plants from Magallanes region signal the presence of the phytoplasma "Candidatus Phytoplasma hispanicum" pertaining to the group 16SrXIII-F
THE UPTAKE AND RELEASE OF [3H]‐2‐AMINO‐6,7‐DIHYDROXY1,2,3,4‐TETRAHYDRONAPHTHALENE (ADTN) BY STRIATAL NERVE TERMINALS

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

A study has been made of the uptake and release of [G‐ 3 H]‐2‐amino 6,7‐dihydroxy‐1, 2,3,4‐tetra‐hydronaphthalene (ADTN) by crude striatal synaptosomes of the rat. Uptake was rapid, temperature‐dependent and could be suppressed by a variety of metabolic inhibitors. The Michaelis‐Menten kinetics indicated the presence of two distinct transport systems in the striatum which were of much higher capacity than those found in the cerebellum, which lacks dopaminergic innervation. Uptake of [ 3 H]‐ADTN was strongly inhibited by dopamine and the two potent dopamine‐uptake inhibitors, benztropine and nomifensine, but only weakly by imipramine and amphetamine (the latter in non‐reserpine‐treated animals). Accumulated [ 3 H]‐ADTN could be released from striatal slices by elevated K + . A similar release was evoked upon the addition of the ionophore, A23187. The most potent releaser of [ 3 H]‐ADTN was (+)‐amphetamine. This effect occurred at concentrations inactive against ADTN uptake. The neuroleptic ris‐flupenthixol produced an inhibition of the spontaneous release. It is concluded that [ 3 H]‐ADTN is accumulated preferentially into areas of the rat brain rich in dopamine. The pharmacological specificity of the uptake suggests that it is a good substrate for the dopamine carrier. Following uptake, [ 3 H]‐ADTN may be released by K + and a calcium ionophore, which raises the possibility that ADTN might act as a false transmitter.

Identity, religion and empire : the civic coins of Roman Phoenicia

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This thesis will examine the role that religious imagery on civic coinage played in the expression of identities and religious mentality in Roman Phoenicia. This medium comprised low-value bronze currency, which was produced by individual cities for primarily local use. Their reverses preserve a vast corpus of imagery but, despite this repository of visual evidence, there are only a few studies that engage with the material and none that focus solely on Phoenicia. When working with numismatic evidence there has been a tendency either to accept the images shown as completely realistic, or to reject the informative potential of designs outright. This approach aims to seek a middle ground between these extremes: to accept the limitations and challenges of numismatic material, but also to demonstrate its validity as a resource. \n \nThe aim of this thesis is to collate religious types – images of deities and sacred architecture – from a range of cities, to ask what they can reveal about how these cities wished to represent themselves to both inter- and intra-communal audiences, and how the communicative potential of coin reverses were exploited. In addition to using civic coins to explore identities on a local level, this thesis will also ask to what extent their designs interacted with the concept of a provincial Phoenician identity. It will also explore the impact of Roman authority and cultural influences, to examine what it meant to be Phoenician during the Roman period. \n \nChapter One will conduct a survey of prior approaches to cultural exchange and interaction will be undertaken, and the methodology will be established. Chapter Two will address the practical function of civic coinage – how it looked, how it was produced, how it circulated – as well as exploring how previous studies have handled coin types as evidence. The following two chapters will divide the numismatic material into representations of deities and temples before being thoroughly analysed to ask what messages they can reveal. The final chapter will apply the findings of previous chapters to the city goddess Tyche, to examine her role in representing the city on coin types, and assess the wider implications for civic coins in terms of local, provincial, and imperial identities.
An Integrated PIPRECIA and COPRAS Method under Fuzzy Environment: A Case of Truck Tractor Selection

Field: Decision Sciences (Social Sciences)

Selecting the right truck tractor is critical for logistics companies involved in road freight transportation. The fact that having many conflicting criteria and many alternatives complicates the decision-making process for the decision-makers (DMs). The determination of the criteria that are effective in the selection of truck tractors and then the evaluation of the alternatives are the main objectives of this study. In this context, a hybrid Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) model composed of Fuzzy PIPRECIA (F-PIPRECIA) and Fuzzy COPRAS (F-COPRAS) methods is proposed to be used in the selection of truck tractors. In the related literature, no studies that applied F-PIPRECIA and F-COPRAS together to determine the best truck tractor have been published yet. In this regard, this study is thought to contribute to the literature both in terms of the methods used and the application of truck tractor selection. Moreover, the findings of this study will pave the way for those who conduct academic studies and the authorities of companies involved in road transport in the logistics sector.
Fast Finite‐Time Dynamic Surface Synchronization Control for Telerobotics System with Prescribed Performance

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Abstract This study focuses on the fast finite‐time synchronization control problem for nonlinear telerobotics system with asymmetric time‐vary delays and uncertainties. A finite‐time prescribed performance function is incorporated into the backstepping control framework such that the synchronization error will remain within a predefined funnel boundary. To increase the rate of convergence, the selected error transformation function is a arctangent function. The utilization of dynamic surface control method aims to decrease computational complexity by mitigating the need for repetitive differentiation of virtual signals in the conventional backstepping algorithm. In the meantime, the non‐power approximate signals of fuzzy neural network algorithms are utilized to replace the system uncertainties, effectively addressing the passivity issue associated with time‐delayed channels. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results are present to verify that the synchronization error can converge to a small neighborhood around zero in the fast finite time and the closed‐loop system remains stable.
Corn Stillage as a Feedstuff for Broilers and Turkeys

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

These experiments studied the effect of corn stillage in broiler and turkey starter diets and the efficacy of various products to preserve the resulting high-moisture diets. Corn stillage fed at an 8-10% level on a dry matter basis (DMB) supported broiler growth and feed conversion comparable to those obtained with the control diet. Turkey poults were able to consume a 16% corn stillage (DMB) diet with growth and feed conversion comparable to that of the control diet. Both broilers and turkeys reduced their drinking water intake to compensate for water consumed via the feed. This resulted in no change in broiler fecal moisture and only a 5% increase in turkey fecal moisture. Both 3% propionic acid and 3% Shield preservative were effective in preserving the high-moisture stillage diets. Aflaban preservative at 0.08% was not as effective as the other compounds tested in preserving the diets.
Zwitterion Polymer Brushes on Porous Membranes: Characterization,\nTribology, Performance, and the Effect of Electrolyte Anions

Field: Chemical Engineering (Physical Sciences)

Herein,\nwe present a two-step activation process to achieve surface-initiated\natom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and covalently grafted\npoly­(sulfobetaine methacrylate) polyzwitterion brushes with controlled\ndensity and thickness on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) ultrafiltration membrane\nsurfaces. The activation is based on the known amidoxime synthesis\non PAN membrane surfaces, with subsequent mixed oxadiazole formation\nto incorporate the ATRP initiator. Successful grafting and the differences\nin brush density and thickness were verified by X-ray photoelectron\nspectroscopy, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared\nspectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy (AFM). Specifically, we\nqualitatively show the differences in the brush interface layers by\nusing lateral force microscopy (LFM) with a colloidal AFM probe and\nthrough nanowear experiments using a sharp AFM tip. All brush interfaces\nshowed reduced friction in LFM and unique stick-slip behavior and\nripple formation as a nanowear mode. We also show that the molecular\nweight cutoff and permeability vary with the brush properties and\nthat both high- and low-density brushes offer superior antifouling\nproperties against alginate compared to a pristine PAN membrane. Finally,\nwe analyze how Hofmeister series anions affect filtration with 0.01,\n0.1, and 0.5 mol L<sup>–1</sup> KCl, KBr, KSCN, K<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>, and K<sub>2</sub>HPO<sub>4</sub> solutions. The results\nreveal a positive flux effect for KCl, KBr, and KSCN and a negative\none for K<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub> and K<sub>2</sub>HPO<sub>4</sub> solutions, suggesting that the brushes are grafted mostly to the\nsurface, crowding the pore mouth in the media with strongly hydrated\ncounterions. Overall, this work provides a method for preparing well-controlled\npolymer brushes on porous membranes to produce membranes with excellent\nantifouling properties.
Atrial fibrillation following treatment with paclitaxel: A case report

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Paclitaxel (PTX) is an antimicrotubule agent, and is effective in treating a wide range of solid tumors. However, its use may lead to cardiovascular toxicities, the manifestations of which include arrhythmia, heart failure, acute myocardial ischemia and atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is among the severe reactions to the PTX cardiotoxicity, and a cause for substantial morbidity and mortality. However, the incidence of PTX-induced AF is reportedly low (1.0-1.7% worldwide), and few cases have been reported in the literature. Thus, to emphasize the need for awareness of this side effect of PTX among clinicians, the report herein presents a case of AF induced by PTX in a patient with non-small-cell carcinoma. A 51-year-old man experienced AF following treatment with PTX. Amiodarone and metoprolol were administered to the patient to control cardiac rhythm and rate. After 3 days, the electrocardiogram was normalized and indicated normal heart rate and rhythm. According to this case, thorough attention should be paid during PTX treatment to monitor for signs of AF or other abnormalities in cardiac function.

QUADRANT SPARING OF THE MACULA

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Macular sparing is an indisputable clinical finding in cases of hemianopia. Several explanations have been given, some of which are not mutually exclusive. Eight cases, encountered in a study of more than 100 hemianopias, are presented, in which the sparing has the form of a quadrant, either upper or lower. The explanation in these cases seems to be the double vascular supply to the tip of the occipital pole. It is stressed, however, that macular sparing may have a different explanation in other cases.

Knowledge, legitimacy and progress? Requirements as inscriptions in information systems development

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Given the importance placed on requirements analysis for success in systems development, this paper seeks to illuminate some of the underlying issues common to requirements techniques. This view is offered as a contrast to frameworks that identify an apparent diversity of requirements techniques, on the one hand, and those that portray differences in requirements techniques based on a progressive improvement of these techniques. The central argument of the paper is that most requirements techniques share common characteristics with inscription devices, by translating problematic organizational situations into agreed representations on paper or on computer. These inscriptions are commonly seen as providing legitimate knowledge of the organization that cannot be shown to be ‘correct’ but which act as resources to resolve tensions in requirements formulation and enable information technologies to be implemented successfully in organizations. A consequence of this argument is that portrayals of progressive improvement in requirements techniques have more rhetorical force than historical accuracy, and this assertion is illustrated by comparing SOP (Study Organization Plan), a 1960s requirements methodology, with ‘state‐of‐the‐art’ object‐oriented analysis. Finally, given the problematic role of requirements techniques as inscription devices, guidance is given to those engaged in requirements analysis that focuses as much on the context of the application of the requirements technique as the requirements technique itself.
