Performance, Emission, and Study of DI Diesel Engine Running on Pumpkin Seed Oil Methyl Ester with the Effect of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles as an Additive

Field: Energy (Physical Sciences)

The usage of petroleum fuels in IC engines is hazardous to humans, plants, and agriculture since they exhaust poisonous pollutants into the environment. Substantial research is now being conducted to identify an alternative to petroleum fuel and to enhance its quality. Nanoparticles are a relatively new technology that may be used to improve the properties of fuel. Engine tests were performed on conventional CI engines using a diesel and biodiesel blend under different running circumstances. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance, emissions, and combustion characteristics of a pumpkin seed oil methyl ester diesel blend (PSOME20) in a diesel engine with the help of a copper oxide nanoparticle. CuO nanoparticles in varying concentrations (50 and 100 ppm) were dispersed in the PSOME20 fuel. The results showed that the BTE of the PSOME20CuO100 fuel is 2.3% higher than that of the PSOME20 fuel, but the reduction in BSFC is 6.4%. Engine HC, CO, and smoke emissions were being significantly minimized when CuO nanoparticles were mixed with PSOME20. The addition of CuO nanoparticles to PSOME20 enhanced combustion behaviors such as HRR and cylinder pressure.
The Woman Who Saw the Devil: Gender Representations in Brazil's Cordel Narratives

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article focuses on the cordel as an idiosyncratic manifestation of Brazilian popular culture. It sets the results of original research on cordel gender representations within the specific social, cultural, and political contexts in which they originated/emerged. The article is based on research grounded in cultural studies and this discipline's insistence on the critical importance of race, gender, and religion. The author argues that cordels - poems printed in cheap booklets with an illustrated cover and marketed to the mass public - offer important insights into existing social and gender norms in Brazil. Whereas in the past the genre was dominated by men authors and upheld conservative Catholic values, nowadays it has creatively adapted to the changing social realities. A comparative analysis of specific titles written in rural Brazil in the second half of the 20th century and titles written in the early 21st century by emerging women authors in an urban setting reveals starkly different patterns of gender representation. Contemporary authors - many of them women - are well aware of the cordel's importance as a tool in the socialisation and apprehension of cultural meanings of gender. They represent gender through the cordel in ways that are subversive and serve to undermine the existing patriarchal norm. The cordel today continues to develop into a genre which is open and pluralistic in its multiple gender representations that reflect Brazil's diverse social realities.

Re‐evaluation of oxidised soya bean oil interacted with mono‐ and diglycerides of fatty acids (E 479b) as a food additive

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

The EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF) provides a scientific opinion re-evaluating the safety of thermally oxidised soya bean oil interacted with mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids (TOSOM) (E 479b) when used as a food additive. The Scientific Committee on Food (SCF) and the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) derived an acceptable daily intake (ADI) of 25 and 30 mg/kg body weight (bw) per day, respectively. There was no reliable information regarding the absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion (ADME) for TOSOM. No adverse effects have been detected in a limited subchronic toxicity study in pigs. The Panel identified a no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) of 5,400, the highest dose tested, from a chronic and carcinogenicity study in rats. No genotoxicity data were available. No reliable studies for reproductive or developmental toxicity were available. From the chronic and carcinogenicity study, no lesions in reproductive organs were described and the lack of carcinogenic effect alleviated the concern for genotoxicity at the first site of contact. The Panel concluded that the available toxicological data were insufficient to support the current ADI, in particular, due to the lack of ADME data and absence of developmental toxicity studies TOSOM (E 479b) is only authorised in one food category and only one reported use level that equals the maximum permitted level was submitted. The estimated high (P95) exposure reached an upper value of 10.1 mg/kg bw per day for toddlers. When comparing the highest estimated exposure of 10 mg/kg bw per day in toddlers with the NOAEL of 5,400 mg/kg bw per day (the highest dose tested), the margin of safety (MoS) would be 540. Therefore, the Panel considered the use of TOSOM (E 479b) to be of no safety concern, in particular when considering the limited current use of this food additive. The Panel also recommended some modifications of the EU specifications for E 479b.

Burkitt Lymphoma with Malignant Ovarian Manifestation: A Case Report and Literature Review

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A lymphoma presenting as an ovarian mass with an initial manifestation is unusual and can cause confusion for the clinician, as its presentation may resemble that of other much more common tumors. Malignant lymphoid cells may appear in the ovary either as a primary neoplasm or as a secondary manifestation of an occult or known disseminated disease. The most common presenting signs or symptoms of malignant lymphomas involving the ovaries are abdominal or pelvic pain or a mass. We report a case of bilateral primary Burkitt lymphoma of the ovaries in a 14-year-old girl presenting with abdominal distension, abdominal pain, hematemesis, and melena. Ultrasound and CT imaging suggested a provisional diagnosis of ovarian tumor. The diagnosis of Burkitt lymphoma was established by histopathological examination of a biopsy from a digestive thickening. The tumor was classified as Burkitt lymphoma with pleural, intestinal, peritoneal, nodal (coelio-mesenteric), renal, ovarian, and bone involvement with medullary infiltration.
Foliar Resistance to Fall Armyworm in Corn Germplasm Lines that Confer Resistance to Root- and Ear-Feeding Insects*

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

A holistic approach to developing new corn germplasm that confers multiple insect resistance in various plant tissues at different growth stages was examined. Eight corn germplasm lines were examined for their foliar resistance to fall armyworm [Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)] and natural enemy attraction at V6–V8 (or 6–8 leaf) stages in 2008 and 2009. Four corn germplasm lines with known levels of resistance to root- and ear-feeding insects ['CRW3(S1)C6', 'B37*H84', 'SIM6' and 'EPM6'], and four germplasm entries with different levels of S. frugiperda resistance ('Mp708', 'Ab24E', 'FAW7061' and 'FAW7111') were evaluated in the study. All plants were manually infested with 15–20 neonate S. frugiperda larvae per plant, and injury was rated 7 and 14 d after infestation. Based on cluster analysis of S. frugiperda injury rating and predator survey data, 'Mp708' and 'FAW7061' were the most resistant, whereas 'Ab24E' and 'EPM6' were the most susceptible to fall armyworm feeding. The western corn rootworm-resistant 'CRW3(S1)C6' showed resistance to S. frugiperda feeding. Surveys for the diversity and abundance of predators of S. frugiperda in each experimental plot were also conducted 7 d after infestation. 'CRW3(S1)C6' and 'Ab24E' had the highest and lowest predator abundance, respectively. However, there was no direct correlation between S. frugiperda injury ratings and predator abundance. The current study demonstrated the feasibility of developing foliage-, root-, and ear-feeding insect-resistant germplasm covering multiple corn growth stages. In addition, the possibility of utilizing plant volatiles to attract predators, and reduce pest populations and crop damage is discussed.
Effects of Aluminium on Honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthosL.) Seedlings in Solution Culture

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthos L.) seedlings were grown in solution culture at pH 4.0) with 50, 150, 600 and 1500 mmol m−3 aluminium. All levels of aiuminium reduced the size and weight of roots, shoots and leaves with the exception of root elongation at 50 mmol m−3 Al. Aluminium content of roots was 50 to 100 times that of shoots. With increasing concentration of aluminium, aluminium content of leaves and roots increased exponentially while a linear increase was observed for stems. The nutrient content of seedlings was improved in 50 mmol m−3 where increases in shoot calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus concentrations were observed. Aluminium concentrations greater than 50 mmol m−3 reduced shoot nutrient content. Presence of aluminium increased the root phosphorus and calcium levels but had no effect on potassium and magnesium concentrations. Results show that honeylocust is an aluminium sensitive tree species whose growth may be reduced by high soil Al levels.
Impact of Prevascularization on Immunological Environment and Early Engraftment in Subcutaneous Islet Transplantation

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background. The utilization of islet-like cells derived from pluripotent stem cells may resolve the scarcity of islet transplantation donors. The subcutaneous space is a promising transplantation site because of its capacity for graft observation and removal, thereby ensuring safety. To guarantee subcutaneous islet transplantation, physicians should ensure ample blood supply. Numerous methodologies, including prevascularization, have been investigated to augment blood flow, but the optimal approach remains undetermined. Methods. From C57BL/6 mice, 500 syngeneic islets were transplanted into the prevascularized subcutaneous site of recipient mice by implanting agarose rods with basic fibroblast growth factor at 1 and 2 wk. Before transplantation, the blood glucose levels, cell infiltration, and cytokine levels at the transplant site were evaluated. Furthermore, we examined the impact of the extracellular matrix capsule on graft function and the inflammatory response. Results. Compared with the 1-wk group, the 2-wk group exhibited improved glycemic control, indicating that longer prevascularization enhanced transplant success. Flow cytometry analysis detected immune cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages, in the extracellular matrix capsules, whereas cytometric bead array analysis indicated the release of inflammatory and proinflammatory cytokines. Treatment with antitumor necrosis factor and anti-interleukin-6R antibodies in the 1-wk group improved graft survival, similar to the 2-wk group. Conclusions. In early prevascularization before subcutaneous transplantation, neutrophil and macrophage accumulation prevented early engraftment owing to inflammatory cytokine production.
Morphometric Study of Bicipital Groove in Dry Adult Human Cadaveric Humerus in Indian Population

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: An important anatomical feature on the ventral surface of the proximal section of the humerus is the “bicipital groove” (BG). Understanding the functional importance of the shoulder area requires a thorough understanding of the morphometric research of the bicipital groove. It is regarded as a significant turning point for humeral head replacement and shoulder prosthesis. The current study aims to investigate the bicipital groove’s morphometry and show how variations in its parameters affect the way the surrounding structures operate. Objectives: Primary objective is to determine various morphometric parameters of bicipital groove and to calculate the medial and lateral angles of the dry humerus’s bicipital groove. We also evaluate the anthropometric differences between intertubercular sulcus of the right side and the left side of humerus. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out at the Anatomy Department of TMMC and RC, TMU, Moradabad, and was descriptive in nature. Forty-one dried adult cadaveric humerus bones (19 Rt. Humerus, 22 Lt. Humerus) were used in the study. The bicipital groove’s breadth and length as well as the medial and lateral wall angles were measured. It was noted that Meyers Ridge was present. A suitable test for statistics was used. Results: The biciptal groove measured 78.35 ± 4.5 mm on the right side and 78.21 ± 7.2 mm on the left. The calculated width of the same was 9.13 ± 1.1 mm on the left and 10.11 ± 1.2 mm on the right. The bicipital groove measured in this study has a depth of 5.39 ± 1.0 mm on the right side and 5.30 ± 1.0 mm on the left. The median wall angle of the right humerus measured 46.58 ± 6.5, whereas the left humerus measured 47 ± 5.8. The bicipital groove measurements for the right and left sides were 48.89 ± 5.8 and 49 ± 4.7, respectively, in terms of their lateral wall angles. The frequency of Meyer’s supratubercular ridge on the right side of the humerus was determined to be 15.8%. Conclusion: The differences in the morphometry of the bicipital groove have been verified by this investigation. In the Indian population, these grooves were found to be slightly deeper and wider. Anatomists, orthopedic surgeons, and others who fabricate prosthesis based on native Indian bone measurements would greatly benefit from the data collected.
Nucleic Acid Polymerases of the Developing Chicken Embryo: A DNA Polymerase Preferring a Hybrid Template

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

This paper presents a preliminary survey of the nucleic acid polymerases of the developing chicken embryo, especially of the 4-day stage. The predominant activity is that of a DNA polymerase preferring a DNA-RNA hybrid as the template. The enzyme, which is activated by Mn 2+ ions and inhibited by p -chloromercuriphenylsulfonate, copies preferentially the ribo strand of a hybrid, such as poly(rA)·poly(dT), but is relatively inactive with all-ribo duplexes. DNA polymerase I of Escherichia coli was also found to use the hybrid template with high efficiency, copying preferentially the ribo strand. With the chicken enzyme, the template activity of denatured DNA was increased tenfold by simultaneous transcription with RNA polymerase. DNA polymerase activity reaches a maximum in the 6- to 8-day chicken embryo and then declines progressively to about one-third of the maximal value in the adult chicken.
POS0099 THE DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF HLA-DRB1 ALLELES IN THE POPULATION OF CROATIAN PATIENTS WITH IGA VASCULITIS (IgAV)

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Background

IgA vasculitis (IgAV) is a small vessel vasculitis occurring predominantly in childhood. Studies concerning the genetic background of IgAV have confirmed that susceptibility to the disease may be influenced by Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA), with HLA-DRB1 gene showing a strong association with the disease.

Objectives

We aimed to investigate HLA-DRB1 polymorphism among Croatian patients with IgAV and to determine if there are associations with disease susceptibility and clinical heterogeneity.

Methods

123 IgAV patients, fulfilling the diagnostic EULAR/PRINTO/PRES criteria from three pediatric rheumatology centers and 202 unrelated healthy individuals were enrolled. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole peripheral blood. The HLA-DRB1 alleles were analysed using the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) method.

Results

Among 123 patients with IgAV, 68 were girls and 55 were boys with median age 6.3 (4.5-8.2) years at the time of diagnosis. All patients had purpuric rash, 75.7% had arthralgia or arthritis, 32.5% had affected gastrointestinal (GI) system, while 25.2% patients developed IgA vasculitis nephritis (IgAVN). The HLA-DRB1*12:01 allele was associated with an increased risk for IgAV (OR 4.45, 95% CI=1.17-16.95, P=0.03), while HLA-DRB1*11:01 allele was associated with an increased risk for GI involvement in patients who developed IgAV (OR 3.29, 95% CI=1.2-8.98, P=0.031). A marginally significant (P=0.068) higher frequency of the HLA DRB1*10:01 allele in patients with GI symptoms was observed. No significant differences were found in the distribution of HLA DRB1 alleles between patients with IgAVN and those who did not develop nephritis.

Conclusion

Our results demonstrated that HLA-DRB1*12:01 allele was associated with susceptibility to IgAV in the Croatian children, while HLA-DRB1*11:01 allele showed association with GI manifestations of the disease.
