Beef Cattle Type for Maximum Efficiency “Putting it All Together”

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

This presentation will deal primarily in opinions. Many of them are not original. However, I believe that there may be need for re-emphasis. To make the opinions more suspect, they are perhaps the product of the ‘administrator syndrome,’ which can be described as, “knowing less and less about more and more until you have no understanding of anything,” or perhaps the product of the ‘specialist syndrome,’ which can be described as, “knowing more and more about less and less until you understand everything about nothing.” There is not much doubt but what the publicly supported beef cattle research and education program has had a relatively high level of effectiveness, as measured by impact on production practices. Also, the rather complex and diverse beef cattle industry is continuing to show an increased keenness to implement new production technology. In fact, this dynamic industry has recently been presenting us with an increasing number of questions to which we are largely lacking in answers. These questions seem to be generally motivated by the need to make adjustments in production programs as a result of technological and economic developments that will likely continue to occur at an increasing rate—both inside of and outside of the beef cattle industry. Thus, regardless of the effectiveness of past research efforts, it seems that all dimensions of research programs should be challenged on a continuing basis. The fact that we cannot provide good solutions to many of the present problems that confront the industry should motivate us to challenge our present research programs with the question: “Are we using our research resources in a manner most likely to result in the greatest return to them relative to present and future problems of the industry?”
Physicochemical properties, antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Nigerian Polyfloral honeys

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Natural honey is widely applied as food sweetener, food preservative and in folk medicine for treatment of varying degree of human affliction and diseases. This study evaluates the antimicrobial activities, physicochemical, phytochemical and antioxidant properties of four Nigerian honey samples collected from Ekiti, Kogi, Osun and Ondo (coded as A, B, C and D respectively). Physicochemical determination of honey samples include: pH, free acidity, electrical conductivity and density. Determination of phytochemical was carried out quantitatively using phenolics and flavonoid; while the total antioxidant capacities was measured in an in-vitro system using inhibition of lipid peroxidation, thiobarbituric acid reactions and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity. Agar diffusion method was used to measure the antimicrobial activities of the honey samples against some selected microorganisms (Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Psuedomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli). The results of the physicochemical characterization showed that the honey samples were polyflorals characterized by low pH (3.76 ± 0.02, 4.17 ± 0.15, 3.94 ± 0.10 and 3.77 ± 0.01 for A, B, C and D respectively) capable of inhibiting the growth of most microorganisms and density ranging between 1.38 and 1.45 g/ml. All the honey samples showed antimicrobial activity against the selected microorganisms at concentration greater than 60 % v/v. The antioxidant investigation also demonstrated ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation and thiobarbituric acid reactions and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity possibly due to the reasonable amount of flavonoids and phenolics therein.
Photoluminescence properties of Te doped AlGaAsSb alloys

Field: Materials Science (Physical Sciences)

A detailed study of the photoluminescence properties in undoped and Te-doped AlGaAsSb alloys lattice matched to InP is presented. Photoluminescent temperature and excitation intensity dependences are employed to discuss the origin of the dominant transition and the influence of the presence of Al and Te on the fluctuation of the electrostatic potential in the epitaxial layers. The behavior of PL dominant transitions is associated with the quasi-donor-acceptor-pair (QDAP) model at a low temperature interval. The temperature dependence of photoluminescence intensities showed characteristics similar to those observed for amorphous semiconductors and disordered superlattices. The presence of two V elements, or the presence of Sb in the ternary and quaternary (III)-III-V-V alloys, causes a reduction in photoluminescence intensity temperature dependence, when compared to (III)-III-III-V alloys.
Transferenca and countertransference problems in treatment of patients with bone marrow transplantation

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

Psiholoski problemi koji zaokupljaju bolesnike prije, u tijeku i nakon transplantacije kostane srži mnogostruki su i složeni, a cesto presudno utjecu na uspjeh transplantacijskog postupka. Proživljavanja bolesnika, pracena njegovim ocekivanjima i ovisnoscu o transplantacijskom timu, kao i razvojem arhajskog transfera izaziva niz kontratransfernih reakcija u clanova tima. Tijekom boravka u sterilnoj jedinici i izolaciji, zbog izuzetno regresivne pozicije, bolesnici se koriste ranim mehanizmima obrane, sto se opet odražava u reakcijama clanova tima. Cilj ovog rada je analiza transfernih i kontratransfernih problema bolesnika i clanova transplantacijskog tima tijekom lijecenja bolesnika transplantacijom kostane srži. Metoda rada bila je psihodinamsko klinicko promatranje i analiza transfernih i kontratransfernih problema bolesnika i clanova transplantacijskog tima za vrijeme transplantacijskog procesa. Tijekom pet godina praceno je 35 bolesnika lijecenih alogenom transplantacijom kostane srži, oboljelih od akutne mijeloicne i akutne limfaticne leukemije za vrijeme njihova boravka u sterilnoj jedinici. Transplantacijski postupak, na temelju promatranja psiholoskih proživljavanja i transfernih reakcija bolesnika, podijeljen je u pet faza, dok se iz perspektive clanova tima kontratransferni problemi javljaju osobito u trenucima nemoci i osjecaja bespomocnosti. Najvažniji mehanizam kojim se koriste clanovi tima da bi se obranili od ovog osjecaja jest „ selektivno izbjegavanje psiholoskog“ , odnosno izbjegavanje empatiziranja.
To Ngoc Van (1906–1954)

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

To Ngoc Van was a notable Vietnamese painter, and one of the first generation of students to graduate from the École des Beaux Arts de l’Indochine, Hanoi, founded in 1925. He was known primarily for his works in oil, which captured the romantic subjects popular in Vietnamese painting of the 1930s and 1940s. As one of the first Vietnamese artists to write and publish art criticism in the local press, he was also influential in shaping the public discourse around Vietnamese modern art. Like many other intellectuals of his generation, he lived through the transition from the colonial period to the anti-colonial, Communist-led revolution, and consequently had to make profound changes to his ideas and practices. During the First Indochina War (1946–1954), he transformed his manner of painting to suit the new ideological environment, creating propaganda works to boost morale, as well as images of peasants and soldiers. However, he was still a strong advocate for the visual arts, and published passionate defenses of creative freedom, artistic education and the practice of modern Vietnamese lacquer painting, despite the ideological pressures of the period.
Deracination of chitosan from locally sourced Millipede (Eurymerodesmus spp.) and its spectroscopic and physio-chemical properties

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

Presently, Chitosan is obtained from chitin extracted from the exoskeleton of Arthropods, fungi, Crustaceans and this limits the availability of this biopolymer despite its very increasing demand due to application versatility. In an effort to expand the sources of obtaining this biopolymer, this work presents the extraction and characterization from a species of millipede Eurymerodesmus spp., it was obtained by the conventional demineralization, deproteinization and deacetylation using 5%, 4%, and 3% HCl acid for demineralization. Characterization was done using FTIR spectroscopy, SEM and TEM microscopy. Proximate analysis carried out presents the percentage ash as 3.05 (3% HCl), 2.98 (4% HCl) and 2.63 (5% HCl). Degree of deacetylation obtained are 51.20% for 3% HCl and 59.30% for 4% HCl and 66.30% for 5% HCl. SEM results presented the samples as platelets with spherical configuration and the TEM results confirmed this. The products are in Nano sizes of 100 nm and 200 nm. Chitosan has found applications in areas as cosmetics, agriculture, pharmaceuticals and bioengineering as a result of its biodegradability, non-toxicity, biocompatibility and its eco-friendly nature. Chitosan’s potential to form dimers, chelate metal ions, form films, cross link with poly anions and transition metal ions and high mechanical stability, makes it a choice material in Nano fabrications, molecular hierarchical architectures as well as targeted delivery systems. Millipede (Eurymerodesmus spp.) can be considered as an alternative source of chitosan to shrimps, prawns, crabs, fungi, and mushroom and obtainable from places that cannot easily access these aquatic raw material resources for chitosan.
Continuous Suture Technique for Aortic Valve Replacement: Technical Considerations and Controversies

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Continuous suture technique (CST) for aortic valve replacement (AVR) is a simple, secure, and fast surgical technique that has been shown to significantly decrease cross clamp time and cardiac bypass time, ultimately resulting in decreased myocardial ischemic injury, operation time, and hospital stay. However, previous studies have reported increased risk of periprosthetic regurgitation with CST for AVR. We describe our technique for AVR using CST in 100 patients with low complication rate and no perioperative paravalvular aortic insufficiency.
Classification of Wheat Types by Artificial Neural Network

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

In this study, the types of wheat seeds are classified using present data with artificial neural network (ANN) approach. Seven inputs, one hidden layer with 10 neurons and one output has been used for the ANN in our system. All of these parameters were real-valued continuous. The wheat varieties, Kama, Rosa and Canadian, characterized by measurement of main grain geometric features obtained by X-ray technique, have been analyzed. Results indicate that the proposed method is expected to be an effective method for recognizing wheat varieties. These seven input parameters reaches the 10-neurons hidden layer of the network and they are processed and then classified with an output. The classification process of 210 units of data using ANN is determined to make a successful classification as much as the actual data set. The regression results of the classification process is quite high. It is determined that the training regression R is 0,9999, testing regression is 0,99785 and the validation regression is 0,9947, respectively. Based on these results, classification process using ANN has been seen to achieve outstanding success.
Fernando Higueras and Lanzarote: A utopian approach to the landscape of tourism in Spain

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

Throughout history, the coasts have been an important source of wealth as well as strategic points for defending the territory. From the 1950s onwards, a vast number of buildings began to appear on the Spanish coasts, colonizing the surroundings and turning them into an enormous tourist space. Although a significant proportion of this construction is of appalling architectural quality, forming part of a chaotic urban development process which destroyed natural ecosystems, some alternative models also emerged, seeking a different kind of relationship with the environment. Fernando Higueras, who, together with his friend César Manrique proposed a distinctive approach to the island of Lanzarote, is an outstanding figure in this respect. Blending into and respecting the habitats in which they were planned, his proposals responded to the demands for new tourist accommodations by drawing on the traditions of local vernacular architecture.
Nomifensine: Diagnostic Test in Hyperprolactinemic States*

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Nomifensine, an antidepressant agent which activates dopamine (D) neurotransmission mainly by inhibiting DA reuptake in the central nervous system, was administered either to puerperal lactating women or to subjects with nonpuerperal hyperprolactinemia. In 10 postpartum women and in 7 women with no evidence of PRL-secreting tumor, oral administration of nomifensine (100 or 200 mg, respectively) induced in the following 5 h a clear-cut inhibition of plasma PRL levels; in 10 patients with PRL-secreting tumors, the drug did not lower plasma PRL levels. In 2 of these patients nonsupressibility of plasma PRL levels to nomifensine was the only indication of the existence of a pituitary microadenoma. It is proposed that acute nomifensine testing may be a valid neuropharmacological tool for discriminating between individuals with and without pituitary adenoma.
Lateritic soil stabilization by using roadpacker plus

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

In Malaysia, more than half the area in Peninsular Malaysia is covered with lateritic soil. Improvement method is needed to provide a strong subgrade construction during construction process. Currently, there are a lot of popular improvement methods and stabilization methods are used in the field. In study, 7% and 13% of RoadPacker Plus were used as a mean of stabilization treatment of soil while 0% act as control sample. Soil stabilization is the alteration of one or more soil properties, by mechanical or chemical means, to improve soil material possessing the desired engineering properties. The main purpose of soil stabilization is to increase soil strength, bearing capacity and resistance to deteriorative forces of nature and manmade environment. Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the engineering properties of soil sample such as classification, Standard Proctor Compaction Test, and Unconfined Compressive Test (UCT). For compaction test, 7% RoadPacker Plus content has the highest MDD value which is 1.54 with 25.47% of moisture content. As for the UCS testing, soil mixture with 7% RoadPacker Plus content have gain higher strength improvement as compare to 13% content. The results indicated that RoadPacker Plus is able to significantly improve the unconfined compression strength of Laterite soil. The soil strength increased with the duration of curing period. As a result, RoadPacker Plus is suitable to use for some practical project such as increasing road bearing capacity.
New Targets for the Management of Schizophrenia

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Schizophrenia is characterized by abnormal mental functions and disturbed behavior. The diagnosis of schizophrenia is based on criteria defined in either the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, version DSM-IV (2) or the ICD-10. Targets of treatment include positive and negative symptoms, depression, suicidal ideation and behaviors, substance use disorders, medical comorbidities, posttraumatic stress disorder, and community adjustment problems. The first-generation antipsychotics were first introduced for the treatment of schizophrenia in the 1950s. The introduction of second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) in the last three decades improved the desired effects of these medications with a reduction of their undesirable effects such as extrapyramidal adverse effects, mortality and metabolic disorder. Medication is generally helpful in treating positive symptoms, but up to a third of people derive little benefit, and negative symptoms are difficult to treat. It has been shown that lack of efficacy and tolerability, often associated with poor compliance, results in treatment discontinuation or treatment switch. Despite critical importance of medication for patients with schizophrenia, nonadherence to treatment is an important issue worldwide. The most prominent patient-related factors associated with nonadherence included lack of insight into the need for medication, denial of illness, embarrassment and unsuitable living conditions. Although antipsychotic medications are necessary, they are not sufficient for the treatment of schizophrenia. The cognitive therapy (cognitive behavioral therapy and cognitive remediation therapy), social skills, psychoeducation programs, family intervention, training programs, and case management or assertive community treatment are the major categories of psychosocial intervention which is an important part of the disease management. The major considerations in disease management treatment include the comprehensive and continuous treatment for prolonged periods, integrated, biopsychosocial approach to care, active collaboration with the family while planning and delivering treatment and treatment sensitive to the patient’s needs and empirically titrated to the patient’s response and progress.
A cost‐effective curvature calculation approach for interfacial flows on unstructured meshes

Field: Mathematics (Physical Sciences)

Summary We present a simple and cost‐effective curvature calculation approach for simulations of interfacial flows on structured and unstructured grids. The interface is defined using volume fractions, and the interface curvature is obtained as a function of the gradients of volume fractions. The gradient computation is based on a recently proposed gradient recovery method that mimicks the least squares approach without the need to solve a system of equations and is quite easy to implement on arbitrary polygonal meshes. The resulting interface curvature is used in a continuum surface force formulation within the framework of a well‐balanced finite‐volume algorithm to simulate multiphase flows dominated by surface tension. We show that the proposed curvature calculation is at least as accurate as some of the existing approaches on unstructured meshes while being straightforward to implement on any mesh topology. Numerical investigations also show that spurious currents in stationary problems that are dependent on the curvature calculation methodology are also acceptably low using the proposed approach. Studies on capillary waves and rising bubbles in viscous flows lend credence to the ability of the proposed method as an inexpensive, robust, and reasonably accurate approach for curvature calculation and numerical simulation of multiphase flows.
USING CLOUD TECHNOLOGIES AS A TOOL IN ORGANIZING THE EDUCATION PROCESS

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The transition towards innovative cloud computing technologies will allow universities to reduce the costs of purchasing software licenses and expensive computer parks with large amounts of memory and disks, since the programs used in training sessions, as well as all the results of work done, can be stored in the cloud. The transfer of educational services to the cloud will facilitate switching to a format of "learning everywhere and all the time". This article considers the pedagogical possibilities of cloud technologies, which confirm the expediency of use in the education process. The definition of cloud computing is discussed. In addition, the main task of the research was considered: using cloud technologies as a tool in the organizing education process. The experience of using open source software in training is given. The basic methods of using cloud technology in the learning process are presented.
Time Optimal Control of Active Loads in DC Microgrids

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This paper proposes a time optimal control methodology to maximize the sustaining time of a power buffer. By improving the sustaining time, constant power load based active load instabilities are mitigated in DC micro-grids during a fault period. Starting from the energy and resistance domain modeling of the active load, time optimal control problem has been formulated to maximize the sustaining time and to minimize the state transient cost of the power buffer. The solution of the defined optimal control problem has been obtained using the Legendre-Gauss-Radau (LGR) direct orthogonal collocation method. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A chromosome 14-specific human satellite III DNA subfamily that shows variable presence on different chromosomes 14.

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

We describe a new subfamily of satellite III DNA (pTRS-63), which, by a combination of in situ hybridization to human metaphase chromosomes and analysis of a panel of somatic cell hybrids, is shown to be specific for human chromosome 14. This DNA has a basic 5-bp repeating unit of diverged GGAAT which is tandemly repeated and organized into either one of two distinct higher-order structures of 5 kb (designated the "L" form) or 4.8 kb (designated the "S" form). In addition, a third (Z) form, representing no detectable levels of this satellite III subfamily, is found. Results from five somatic cell hybrid lines and from a number of informative human individuals suggest that, on any one chromosome 14, only one of the three forms may exist. Subchromosomally, this sequence has been mapped to the p11 region and is distal to the domain occupied by another previously described satellite III subfamily (pTRS-47) found on chromosome 14. The pTRS-63 sequence described adds to the understanding of the structural organization of the short arm of human chromosome 14 and should be useful for the investigation of the molecular etiology of the frequently occurring t(13q14q) and t(14q21q) Robertsonian translocations.
Functional C1q is present in the skin mucus of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii)

Field: Immunology and Microbiology (Life Sciences)

Abstract The skin mucus of fish acts as the first line of self‐protection against pathogens in the aquatic environment and comprises a number of innate immune components. However, the presence of the critical classical complement component C1q, which links the innate and adaptive immune systems of mammalians, has not been explored in a primitive actinopterygian fish. In this study, we report that C1q is present in the skin mucus of the Siberian sturgeon ( Acipenser baerii ). The skin mucus was able to inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli . The bacteriostatic activity of the skin mucus was reduced by heating and by pre‐incubation with EDTA or mouse anti‐human C1q antibody. We also detected C1q protein in skin mucus using the western blot procedure and isolated a cDNA that encodes the Siberian sturgeon C1qC, which had 44.7–51.4% identity with C1qCs in teleosts and tetrapods. A phylogenetic analysis revealed that Siberian sturgeon C1qC lies at the root of the actinopterygian branch and is separate from the tetrapod branch. The C1qC transcript was expressed in many tissues as well as in skin. Our data indicate that C1q is present in the skin mucus of the Siberian sturgeon to protect against water‐borne bacteria, and the C1qC found in the sturgeon may represent the primitive form of teleost and tetrapod C1qCs.
