[Enzyme activity of the seminal fluid of bulls after deep freezing and incubation at 39 degrees C].

The study of bull semen revealed that the activity of alkaline phosphatase in the semen plasma and spermatozoa did not change, however, upon incubation at 39 degrees C for at least 5 hours the activity of the enzyme dropped nearly 10 times. The activity of GOT in both plasma and spermatozoa rose after deep freezing, but the difference recorded were statistically insignificant. Upon incubation of semen at 39 degrees C in the course of five hours the activity of this enzyme decreased, although insignificantly. The differences were likewise insignificant with the drop of GPT following deep freezing. It was concluded that the changes with all three enzymes cannot be used as reliable markers of the injury of spermatozoa following deep freezing.

Exploiting the\n(–C–H···C–)\nInteraction to Design Cage-Functionalized Organic Superbases and Hyperbases:\nA Computational Study

A set of carbon center-based P-ylidesubstituting bases\nhave been\nexploited computationally with pentacyclo[5.4.0.0&lt;sup&gt;2,6&lt;/sup&gt;.0&lt;sup&gt;3,10&lt;/sup&gt;.0&lt;sup&gt;5.9&lt;/sup&gt;]undecane (PCU) and pentacyclo [6.4.0.0&lt;sup&gt;2,7&lt;/sup&gt;.0&lt;sup&gt;3,11&lt;/sup&gt;.0&lt;sup&gt;6,10&lt;/sup&gt;] dodecane (PCD) scaffolds\nusing the B3LYP-D3/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory. The proton affinities\ncalculated in the gas phase are in the range of superbases and hyperbases.\nThe Atomsin-Molecules and Natural Bond Orbital calculations reveal\nthat the –C–H···C– interaction\nplays a substantial role in improving the basicity, and tuning the\n–C–H···C– interaction can enhance\nthe basicity of such systems. The free activation energy for proton\nexchange for PCD and PCU scaffolds substituted with P-ylide is substantially\nlow. The computed results reveal the strength and nature of such –\nC–H···C– interactions compared to the\n–N–H···N– hydrogen bonds. The\nisodesmic reactions suggest that the superbasicity achieved using\nthese frameworks arises from a combination of several factors, such\nas the ring strain of the bases in their unprotonated form, steric\nrepulsion, and the intramolecular –C–H···C–\ninteraction.

Comparison of a digital and an optical analogue hand‐held refractometer for the measurement of canine urine specific gravity

Urine specific gravity (USG) is used clinically as a measure of urine concentration, and is routinely assessed by refractometry. A comparison between optical analogue and digital refractometers for evaluation of canine urine has not been reported. The aim of this study was to compare a digital and an optical analogue hand‐held refractometer for the measurement of canine USG, and to assess correlation with urine osmolality. Prospective study. Free‐catch urine samples were collected from 285 hospitalised adult dogs, and paired USG readings were obtained with a digital and an optical analogue refractometer. In 50 dogs, urine osmolality was also measured using a freezing point depression osmometer. There was a small but statistically significant difference between the two refractometers (P&lt;0.001), with the optical analogue refractometer reading higher than the digital refractometer (mean difference 0.0006, sd 0.0012). Paired refractometer measurements varied by &lt;0.002 in 91.5 per cent of cases. The optical analogue and digital refractometer readings showed excellent correlation with osmolality (r=0.980 and r=0.977, respectively, P&lt;0.001 in both cases). Despite statistical significance, the difference between the two refractometers is unlikely to be clinically significant. Both instruments provide an accurate assessment of USG in dogs.

METHODOLOGIES FOR THE STUDY OF MORPHOLOGICAL AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF STARCH

Starch, a carbohydrate used as a reserve of energy in most plants, is widely used in the food industry, either as a main component or as a thickener. Considering the application of this as an ingredient in the food industry, the study of the morphological and thermal properties of this food is of great importance because it can predict its behavior during and after the processing of this. Methodologies such as scanning electron microscopy, light scattering and optical microscopy are the most used tools in the morphological characterization of the starch granule generating accurate results and good quality. Regarding the methodologies for the study of thermal properties, the rapid amylographic analyzer and the differential scanning calorimetry are the most used. The set of results obtained with these methodologies, allows to know the technological properties of the starch, characterizing them, and even to identify the origin of this one.

Navigating cultural paradoxes: an integrative framework of leader cultural intelligence and paradoxical leadership behaviors

We offer a theoretical framework based on the paradox theory of leadership to unpack and extend leader cultural intelligence (LCQ). Leaders need to be able make swift transitions between culturally diverse others on a daily basis, as they are confronted with diversity in colleagues, clients and stakeholders. This implies that they have to be able to adapt their leadership behaviors in function of the cultural context of the person and the situation, in order to be influential as a leader. We propose LCQ as an antecedent of (switching between) paradoxical leadership behaviors (PLB). We propose that LCQ consists of three elements, (1) LCQ/IC (integral complexity), (2) LCQ/BR (behavioral repertoire), and (3) LCQ/SR (meta-cognitive and emotional self-regulation), and functions as an antecedent of PLBs, which in turn predict intercultural leadership effectiveness.

An ontology driven, multi-agent based framework for automated resource allocation in Mobile Workforce Management systems

Rapid advancement in Mobile Information and Communication Technology (ICT) caused an enormous increment in mobile workforce population of the world. Consequently, this rapid increment created a high-demand for reliable and automated mobile workforce management (MWM) amongst them, Resource Allocation (RAL), which is the focus of this paper, is of high importance. The better performance and reliability that an RAL system exhibits, the more reliable its corresponding MWM will be. A reliable resource allocation process in a mobile environment however, should be able to adequately challenge human resource risks (unpredictable unavailability) as well as environmental risks, such as frequent disconnection, caused by mobility of the resources. In this paper an ontology driven multi-agent based framework for such RAL systems is proposed. The main emphasis of this framework is to describe a dynamic coordination model for Mobile Workforce Brokerage System, a multi-agent system which is utilized to automate the resource allocation process in presence of the abovementioned risks and challenges.

The Value of Trading Consolidation: Evidence from the Exercise of Warrants

We study the effect of trading consolidation by examining the response of liquidity and stock price to the exercise of deep in-the-money corporate warrants. This enables a relatively clean test of the value of trading consolidation. The exercise at the warrant expiration is fully anticipated and has no information content. An effect can come from the value of trading consolidation that improves liquidity. Indeed, we find that liquidity and stock prices both increase significantly at warrant expiration. Further, the price increase is positively related to the pre-exercise extent of fragmentation, to post-exercise improvement in stock liquidity, and to the proportional increase in the number of shares following the warrant exercise.

Reactions of alkynes with metallaboranes: Novel reactivities lead to new structure types

Abstract The reactions of alkynes with nido- dimetallaboranes containing monocyclopentadienyl metal fragments are highly dependent on metal identity. Typical metals from groups 6 and 7 do not react under mild conditions, Rh gives exclusively alkyne cyclotrimerization via a cluster-catalyzed reaction, and Ru reacts predominantly via insertion to give new ruthenacarborane clusters. The facile reaction observed for Ru permits the characterization of intermediates exhibiting novel structural features, e.g., external cluster-bridging monoborane or alkylidene fragments. Despite the large differences in reactivity, circumstantial evidence suggests the alkyne adds to and opens the metallaborane to an arachno- structure. The metal present determines the character of the metallaborane, which in turn determines whether further reaction occurs. For Ru, it is the hydrogen-rich character fostered by the metal fragment that leads to the copious chemistry observed.

Parameter Determination of the NRECA Model for Discharge in the Temef Watershed

A watershed in which the observed discharge data is not available or incomplete becomes a problem in thewater utilization projects. Observation discharge data obtained from Pos Duga Air Sungai Temef is less reliable because the measurement of water level data for the last few years has been carried out by direct observation without using a discharge measuring device. Obtain river discharge data, it can be done by simulating rainfall data into discharge data, one of them is NRECA Model. In NRECA Model, there are several parameters, namely index soil moisture capacity (nominal), Percent Sub Surface (PSUB), Ground Water Flow (GWF), and crop coefficient (kc). Determination of the parameters NRECA Model was obtained by trial and error based on the value limit so that the coefficient correlation (r) between observation discharge and simulation discharge was close to 1. The values used for the index soil moisture capacity (nominal), percent sub surface (PSUB), ground water flow (GWF), and crop coefficient (kc) are 0,20; 0,85; 0,50; and 0,60.

A new perspective [on] shape-from-shading

Shape-from-Shading (SfS) is a fundamental problem in Computer Vision. The vast majority of research in this field have assumed orthography as its projection model. This paper re-examines the basis of SfS, the image irradiance equation, under an assumption of perspective projection. The paper also shows that the perspective image irradiance equation depends merely on the natural logarithm of the depth function (and not on the depth function itself), and as such it is invariant to scale changes of the depth function. We then suggest a simple reconstruction algorithm based on the perspective formula, and compare it to existing orthographic SfS algorithms. This simple algorithm obtained lower error rates than legacy SfS algorithms, and equated with and sometimes surpassed state-of-the-art algorithms. These findings lend support to the assumption that transition to a more realistic set of assumptions improves reconstruction significantly. 1.

Filling the gaps: how the non-faculty mentor role contributes to the doctoral program support structure

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate mentors' and mentees' perspectives of the mentor role within an education doctoral mentoring program at a mid-sized public institution. Design/methodology/approach Data from individual interviews with mentors and mentees were collected as part of a larger case study of a doctoral mentoring program. Mentees were doctor of education (EdD) students in their first and second years of the program. Mentors were identified as individuals who graduated from or are further along in the doctoral program. Five ( N = 5) mentees and seven ( N = 7) mentors participated in interviews, which were then transcribed and coded to identify emergent themes, along with transcripts of presentations given by the mentors. Findings Four themes emerged within the data: differentiating support roles, mentoring as a way to identify gaps in doctoral student needs, mentoring as support for doctoral student success and ways to provide suggestions for mentoring program improvement. Results indicated that mentors and mentees viewed the mentor role as being unique from the roles of faculty advisor and dissertation chair. Mentors and mentees alike responded positively to virtual mentoring. Research limitations/implications Participation by mentors and mentees was limited to first- and second-year doctoral students; thus, dissertation-stage students' perceptions of mentoring could not be determined. Implications include the value of mentoring in filling the gaps of support for doctoral students and the capability of mentoring programs to be adapted to unexpected circumstances such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Originality/value This study targets scholar-practitioner students in an EdD program, who are often overlooked by mentoring literature, and distinguishes research between faculty mentoring and mentoring performed by other students/recent graduates. Additionally, the pandemic gave the authors an opportunity to explore adapting mentoring to virtual formats.

Feline giardiasis: Observations on natural and induced infections

SUMMARY The excretion of Giardia sp cysts in the feces of naturally and artificially infected cats fluctuated sporadically, and cysts were undetectable several times during 7 weeks of observation. The mean prepatent period for Giardia infection in 7 cats was 9.6 days (range, 5 to 16 days). The amount of the cyst inoculum did not appear to affect the length of the prepatent period. Six of 11 cats had clinical signs consistent with those of giardiasis. Clinical signs and cyst excretion were eliminated after treatment with metronidazole or furazolidone. Moderate oral or parenteral doses of corticosteroids produced little, if any, alteration in the infection. Postmortem examination of 1 inoculated cat revealed Giardia trophozoites in the jejunum and upper portion of the ileum but not in the duodenum, lower portion of the ileum, cecum, or colon. Giardia cysts isolated from cat feces produced infection in Mongolian gerbils but not in C57BL/6J mice.

Virtual test as a complement tool of the actual ROPS testing on agricultural tractors

The Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS) is a key safety feature in agricultural and forestry tractors in order to minimize risks to the driver in case of rollover during normal use. The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in an effort to improve operator's safety in Agricultural and Forestry Tractors has set up harmonized testing procedures for ROPS systems. The current OECD Codes for tractors relate to several features of performance. &#13;\nOECD Code 7 is related to the strength of ROPS fitted on narrow-track tractors. On the one hand, Code 7 foresees a sequence of loadings that the protection system has to withstand until the prescribed energy or force is satisfied. In addition to successfully resist the loading sequence, the ROPS has to guarantee a clearance zone during the complete loading sequence. Nowadays tractor manufacturers often adopt numerical simulations for ROPS designing so as to foresee in advance the strength behaviour of the protective structure with respect to the standardized ROPS tests requirements. As a matter of fact, ROPS simulations turned out to be very useful to understand the behaviour of the protection system subjected to complex loading and get valuable insights into performance. A new approach in ROPS test standardization is evaluating the potentiality of virtual tests as a complement of the official actual tests in defined ROPS testing conditions. A numerical simulation with LS-DYNA® were carried out to virtually assess the performance of a ROPS system designed by the BCS manufacturer for a narrow-track tractor. Then the ROPS was officially tested according to the OECD Code 7 loading sequence. A comparison between the results of virtual and actual tests was performed. The main goal of the simulations was to virtually test the tractor according to the Code 7 prior to official test approval and, if necessary, introduce structural changes in order to successfully pass the ROPS strength tests. The use of numerical simulation accompanied by a robust methodology could ensure a high reliability of the virtual prediction with respect to the normalized tests.
