Physicochemical properties and anthocyanin bioaccessibility of downy rose-myrtle powder prepared by superfine grinding

Abstract: ABSTRACT The downy rose-myrtle berry is regarded as a healthy food due to its high content of anthocyanin and other antioxidant phytochemicals. The berries are sometimes dried, ground into a powder and used as a natural food coloring agent or functional food additive. This study aimed to determine the physicochemical properties and anthocyanin bioaccessibility of superfine ground downy rose-myrtle powders. Compared with shear pulverized coarse particles, the superfine ground particles of berry powders had decreased bulk density and fluidity while improved water-holding capacity and solubility. In addition, the amounts of polyphenols and anthocyanins released from the superfine powders were significantly higher than those from coarse powders during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion. These results indicate that after superfine grinding treatment, downy rose-myrtle powder could serve as a potential resource of natural bioactive compounds for food and nutraceutical applications.

Design and development of Bi directional power meter using microcontroller

Abstract: The significance of power or energy measurement has been very acute in recent times with the increase of Grid-Tied Solar PV system that needs Net-Metering. Power can be flown in both directions, from grid to load or from load (PV- Panel) to grid line. If power flow from both side is not calculated and surplus power which is not being used at the time instant is not stored, accurate billing is not possible. That is why a bidirectional power meter is required which can measure both the positive and negative power at any instant. The aim of this paper is to develop a bidirectional power meter using microcontroller. The work of this paper constitutes a microcontroller, a current sensor, bulbs as load and a display. The rms values of voltage and current is determined and showed in the display. Then the calibration is done inside the developed program. After that the power is calculated and showed in the display. Then the direction of the power is determined depending on the direction (whether positive or negative) of the power which is also dependent on the phase difference between the voltage and current. If there is no phase difference between the voltage and current, then the power is positive and leaving from the grid. If there is 180 degree phase difference between the voltage and current, then the power is negative and entering to the grid. The direction of the power flow is very important for efficiently of the proposed meter. For some defined load the accuracy of the developed meter is calculated as 94%.

Ultrasound-Enhanced Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species for MRI-guided Tumor Therapy by Fe@Fe3O4- Based Peroxidase Mimicking Nanozyme

Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-based tumor therapy is still challenging due to limited ROS-generating efficacy. Herein, we constructed heparin conjugated Fe@Fe3O4 NPs (Fe@Fe3O4@heparin, denoted as MNPs) as peroxidase mimicking nanozyme to generate ROS for tumor therapy through the combination of ultrasound-stimulated Fenton reaction and the increased concentration of H2O2 by β-lapachone (La) in tumor. La was firstly intraperitoneally injected into mice and induced to generate a considerable quantity of H2O2 through specific tumor reaction, which was catalyzed by MNPs to produce highly hydroxyl radicals (·OH). Furthermore, the therapy efficacy for malignant tumors could significantly be enhanced by an ultrasonic stimulation. With the help of the increased amount of H2O2 generated by La in tumor and the enhanced peroxidase mimicking activity of MNPs by ultrasound, MNPs manifest good therapeutic performance in a 4T1 xenograft model, which provides a novel strategy for enhanced nanozyme-mediated tumor therapy.

New Cosmopolitanism as a Way out of Ethical Dilemma in Foreignization: A Comparison of Ezra Pound’s and Yuanchong Xu’s Classical Chinese Poetry Translation

Abstract: Foreignization helps to inspire investigations into the translator’s invisibility, cultural hegemony in translation, and translation ethics on the one hand. On the other hand, it shows an ethical dilemma in translation that has already attracted a lot of attention throughout the world. And although existing studies have already uncovered some reasons of the ethical dilemma and put forward some solutions, the question has not been fully addressed especially when translation direction, which is an important but largely ignored factor in translation, is taken into consideration. Developments in contemporary Cosmopolitanism make new interpretation of Cosmopolitanism ethics possible and thus provide a useful theoretical tool. From a new Cosmopolitanism perspective, a Cosmopolitanism translation ethics and a strategy of negotiation, which take the self and the other in translation as equal and enable them negotiate about their difference more effectively, are then proposed to examine foreignization and ethics of difference through a comparative study of Ezra Pound’s and Yuanchong Xu’s classical Chinese poetry translation. The findings indicate that although foreignization morally treats the self and the other in translation as equal, it has the defect of valuing the self’s values above that of the other. A new Cosmopolitanism translation ethics and a strategy of negotiation, however, can overcome the defect, therefore provide a way out of the ethical dilemma in foreignization and ethics of difference.


Microbial biofilms and human disease: A concise review

Abstract: Abstract Bacteria exist mainly as planktonic organisms floating in suspensions or as adherent forms called biofilms. Biofilm formation is a dynamic process leading to the production of a matrix also known as an extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), bacterial biofilms are responsible for up to 75% of infectious diseases in humans. Diseases include bacterial otitis media, infections of wounds, infection of the lungs, urinary tract infections, and most nosocomial infections. Bacteria within biofilms are embedded in a matrix causing a slowdown in their metabolism, and at the same time conferring resistance against antibiotic killing and host defenses. Biofilm bacteria develop different physiological states, slow growth, and are up to 1000 times more resistant to antibiotics than planktonic organisms. Some biofilm infections progress to a persistent infection that has a poor prognosis and increasing health care cost. Bacteria in biofilms are in such close proximity and stimulate recombination events, including those leading to acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes. Biofilms alter the host’s immune response and sometimes sequester components of the innate immune response such as immunoglobulins, platelets, and fibrin becoming constituents of the biofilm matrix. The identification and diagnosis of biofilms from clinical samples is ambiguous in part because conventional culture-based methods or culture-independent molecular methods are unable to discriminate biofilm and planktonic bacteria. In this chapter, we discuss bacterial biofilm-related infections in humans, the mechanism of antibiotic resistance mediated by biofilms, and current technology under development to diagnose bacterial biofilm infections in clinical settings.

Anti-racism legislation in Brazil: the role of the Courts in the reproduction of the myth of racial democracy

Abstract: The goal of this paper is to analyze Brazilian anti-racism law in practice, assessing judicial response to cases of racial stigma and insult. We analyzed over 200 cases from 9 Brazilian states involving racial insults and racial disparagement in Brazilian courts of appeal. We find that the judiciary tends to downplay the importance of insult and stigma, often dismissing cases or lowering penalties. This judicial treatment conflicts with the evidence that racial insults are prevalent in society and serve to maintain racial hierarchies. While the judiciary appears to be enforcing anti-discrimination law, the actual decisions show that the legal system fails to recognize and deal with the real dynamics of Brazilian racism thereby reinforcing the myth of Brazil racial democracy.

Flexible fabrication of a paper-fluidic SERS sensor coated with a monolayer of core–shell nanospheres for reliable quantitative SERS measurements

Abstract: In recent years, paper-based Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates have received extensive attention in the field of rapid analysis. However, obtaining quantitative SERS results is still challenging because of the inferior uniformity originating from the irregular morphology of the filter paper. In this work, a novel paper-fluidic SERS sensor was developed and its in-depth applications in the real-word quantitative analysis of contaminants in complex matrices were demonstrated. In particular, the Au@Ag core-shell nanospheres were labeled with an internal standard molecule to successfully normalize the fluctuation of the SERS signal caused by the microstructure of the filter paper, which could significantly improve the detection accuracy and accomplish the SERS quantitative analysis. In addition, a facile and robust strategy for the fabrication of a paper-based SERS sensor, which uses a dropper and mask to transfer the nanoparticle monolayers, was developed. This convenient and flexible approach effectively achieved a precise patterned assembly of nanoparticles on the filter paper. Furthermore, the paper-fluidic SERS sensor was fabricated by cutting and packaging for two detection modes, i.e., lateral-flow and vertical-flow, which generates the functionalization of the paper-based SERS substrate. Both detection modes integrated sample pretreatment and sample enrichment with SERS detection were applied to accurately detect the pesticide thiram in a complex sample of orange juice with pulp. In summary, this paper-fluidic SERS sensor with a simple preparation process and integrated functions is an ideal candidate for real sample analysis without pretreatment.

Dynamic shuffled frog-leaping algorithm for distributed hybrid flow shop scheduling with multiprocessor tasks

Abstract: Abstract Distributed scheduling problems have attracted much attention in recent years; however, distributed hybrid flow shop scheduling problem (DHFSP) is seldom investigated. In this paper, DHFSP with multiprocessor tasks is studied and a dynamic shuffled frog-leaping algorithm (DSFLA) is proposed to minimize makespan. Dynamic search process is executed in each memeplex with at least two improved solutions. Global search and dynamic multiple neighborhood search are applied, in which neighborhood structure is chosen based on its optimization effect. A new destruction-construction process is hybridized with DSFLA and population shuffling is done when shuffling condition is met. Lower bound is obtained and proved. A number of experiments are conducted on a set of instances. The computational results validate the effectiveness of the new strategies of DSFLA and the competitive performances on solving the considered DHFSP.

Preference analysis of determining jobs using conjoint analysis

Abstract: Nowadays, there are many graduates who are not directly employed after receiving bachelor's degree. The graduates who are not employed seem largely unaware of career opportunities and unsure of how to apply their skills in the workforce. This indicates a lack of career guidance, coaching and counselling. This research aims to study people's preferences on determining their jobs by using conjoint analysis. Four factors are evaluated: (1) income, (2) suitability of the workplace with educational background, (3) field of works, and (4) working hours, which has different level category values. Monotonic analysis of variance is used to analyze the data and the results are (1) utility value which is useful to know the most desirable level of each attribute and (2) its relative importance value to know the most considered attribute on determining their jobs. The full profile method of conjoint analysis shows that income is the most considered attribute value.

Natural Resource Endowment and the Fallacy of Development in Cameroon

Abstract: Cameroon is rich in petroleum, minerals, tropical forests, wildlife, water systems, fertile lands, and much more. Paradoxically however, most citizens live in abject poverty and without jobs, potable water, electricity, good healthcare and roads. This book is a thoughtful interrogation of some of the structural factors driving persistent poverty in Cameroon in the midst of natural resource abundance. It engages in a multidimensional critical analysis of the impact of natural resources on basic development indicators and concludes that good resource governance and sound management are the missing link. Natural resources alone will not create socio-economic prosperity void of good management with a clear development vision and strategy in Cameroon. The book assembles a wide diversity of analysis, views, perspectives and recommendations from economists, development experts, social and political scientists, on Cameroon's current development inertia. What emerges in the end is a coherent interdisciplinary analysis of the natural resource-development paradox as it plays out in an African setting. Theories and good practices from Africa and beyond are systematically applied to identify and critique present policy and management approaches while providing alternative options that can unlock Cameroon's natural resource wealth for national prosperity.

Performance analysis and mathematical modelling of banana slices in a heat pump drying system

Abstract: Abstract In this study, banana slices were dried at different temperatures in a closed-loop heat pump drying system. As the temperature and the slice thickness increased, the drying time also increased. Midilli & Kucuk model was found to be the best model to explain the experimental data. The effective moisture diffusivity ranged from 1.12 × 10−10 to 1.64 × 10−10 m2/s. The dependence of moisture diffusivity on temperature was described by an Arrhenius-type equation and the activation energy was found to be 51.43 kJ/mol. The highest mean specific moisture extraction ratio (SMER) and coefficient of performance (COP) of HPD system were obtained as 0.212 kg/kWh and 3.059, respectively, at the highest drying air temperature.


De-Noising Derived Inflows to Reservoirs for Hydrologic Model Calibration and Reservoir Management

Abstract: Long term hydrographs of natural inflows, at sub-daily time resolution, are important for the management and operation of dams/reservoirs. They are used for calibration and validation of inflow forecast models, risk-based analysis of the flood potential, and for long-term reservoir planning and operation. In many reservoirs such inflow hydrographs are not available and they must be derived using storage volume differences, based on measured lake levels. Unfortunately lake level sensors are often susceptible to noise from various sources (e.g. wave action) and this often results in hydrographs that contain large randomly oscillating errors. A traditional approach for removing such errors is to use a moving average filter. However, while a moving average filter is generally sufficient to represent inflow recessions, the filter can tend to underestimate the flood peaks. This paper examines 4 de-noising (noise removal) strategies for inflow hydrographs. The de-noising strategies borrow concepts from digital signal processing and filter noise in both time and frequency domains. The effectiveness of these strategies in reproducing peaks and recession hydrograph characteristics is examined using synthetic and real-world examples.

Influence of the Heart Rate on Dynamics of Cardiorespiratory System

Abstract: Laws of dynamics of the DeBoer’s model of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems are studied taking into account dependence of parameters on a variation of the heartbeat. The linear approximation of unknown functional dependences of feedback influence of a cardiosystem on respiratory are investigated. By methods of the modern theory of dynamical systems the steady-state regimes of the modified models are studied. It has been shown that a reverse influence of parameters of a cardiosystem frequency on frequency of respiratory oscillations results in irregularity of the dynamic mode of the combined system, i.e. a cause of chaos appearances in the cordially-respiratory system is the internal interaction of subsystems: cardiovascular and respiratory. A decrease in heart rate causes a decrease in pressure.


Interaction of technical and technological factors on qualitative and energy/ecological/economic indicators in the production and processing of thermally modified merbau wood

Abstract: Abstract Thermal modification of wood is a technological intervention primarily aimed at improving the dimensional stability and decay resistance of wood, making it suitable for outdoor application. Despite the fact that this process is widely used today, there is still a lack of knowledge about the effect of thermal modification on the surface quality of wood processed with conventional milling. This study focuses on two basic areas that significantly influence the economy of production and the quality of thermally modified wood. The first part deals with the evaluation of the effect of modification temperature on the chemical composition of wood. The second part deals with the effect of machining parameters, namely cutting speed, feed rate and rake angle, on selected surface quality parameters (roughness, waviness). The interaction between modification temperature, chemical change and machining parameters was also evaluated. The result of this study suggests the optimal combination of processing parameters necessary to achieve higher surface quality with the lowest energy consumption, considering the intrinsic properties of the studied species.
