Autolytic changes in cod muscle press juice are negligible in proportion to the changes resulting from bacteria ordinarily contaminating the press juice during its preparation. During early spoilage, the greater part of the bacterial action on expressate even in intimate contact with air is the result of anaerobic growth. Later, when the press juice is definitely spoiled, aerobic oxidation assumes the major part if air is available. Spoilage in sea fish expressate always occurs in two stages irrespective of the availability of air, first the oxidation of lactic acid and sugar, and second that of amino acids and the hydrolysis of proteins. The second stage represents advanced spoilage. As trimethylamine production occurs mainly during the first stage, it is a good criterion as to the probable production of toxic compounds resulting from protein and amino acid breakdown.

N-lipidated short peptides and amino acids immobilized on the cellulose were used ascatalysts cleaved amide bonds under biomimetic conditions. In order to select catalytically mostactive derivatives a library of 156 N-lipidated amino acids, dipeptides and tripeptides immobilizedon cellulose was obtained. The library was synthesized from serine, histidine and glutamic acidpeptides N-acylated with heptanoic, octanoic, hexadecanoic and (E)-octadec-9-enoic acids.Catalytic efficiency was monitored by spectrophotometric determination of p-nitroaniline formedby the hydrolysis of a 0.1 M solution of Z-Leu-NP. The most active 8 structures contained tripeptidefragment with 1-3 serine residues. It has been found that incorporation of metal ions into catalyticpockets increase the activity of the synzymes. The structures of the 17 most active catalysts selectedfrom the library of complexes obtained with Cu2+ ion varied from 16 derivatives complexed withZn2+ ion. For all of them, a very high reaction rate during the preliminary phase of measurementswas followed by a substantial slowdown after 1 h. The catalytic activity gradually diminished aftersubsequent re-use. HPLC analysis of amide bond splitting confirmed that substrate consumptionproceeded in two stages. In the preliminary stage 24–40% of the substrate was rapidly hydrolysedfollowed by the substantially lower reaction rate. Nevertheless, using the most competentsynzymes product of hydrolysis was formed with a yield of 60–83% after 48h under mild andstrictly biomimetic conditions.

During the electrolytic reduction of magnesium, it is very important to understand the mechanism of the digestion of the magnesium chloride dihydrate granules in the molten electrolyte throughout the chlorination process. This work aimed to investigate the kinetics of this digestion process. The results showed that the granules digestion is happening in two stages. The first stage is very fast, hence, results in the formation of MgOHCl during the dehydration and the hydrolysis of magnesium chloride dihydrate in the interior of the granules. The kinetic results for the first stage was best modeled using shrinking core model where the surface reaction was the rate controlling step. The second stage was best modeled as a first-order homogenous reaction. The kinetic parameters for the two stages were determined along with the Arrhenius plots. The results of this kinetics study are essential for the mathematical modeling of the chlorination process of the magnesium chloride dihydrate granules.

B-lymphocytes normally synthesize small amounts of immunoglobulin, some of which is incorporated into the cell membrane where it serves as receptor of antigen. These cells, on contact with specific antigen, proliferate and differentiate to plasma cells which synthesize and secrete large quantities of immunoglobulin. The two stages of differentiation of this cell line (generation of B-lymphocytes and antigen-driven maturation to plasma cells) are clearly separable during ontogeny and in some immune deficiency diseases. The present report describes morphologic aberrations of B-lymphocytes in two diseases in which second stage differentiation is defective.

Ch Selection

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) the energy of Sensor nodes is not certainly sufficient. In order to optimize the endurance of WSN, it is essential to minimize the utilization of energy. Head of group or Cluster Head (CH) is an eminent method to develop the endurance of WSN that aggregates the WSN with higher energy. CH for intra-cluster and inter-cluster communication becomes dependent. For complete, in WSN, the Energy level of CH extends its life of cluster. While evolving cluster algorithms, the complicated job is to identify the energy utilization amount of heterogeneous WSNs. Based on Chaotic Firefly Algorithm CH (CFACH) selection, the formulated work is named “Novel Distributed Entropy Energy-Efficient Clustering Algorithm”, in short, DEEEC for HWSNs. The formulated DEEEC Algorithm, which is a CH, has two main stages. In the first stage, the identification of temporary CHs along with its entropy value is found using the correlative measure of residual and original energy. Along with this, in the clustering algorithm, the rotating epoch and its entropy value must be predicted automatically by its sensor nodes. In the second stage, if any member in the cluster having larger residual energy, shall modify the temporary CHs in the direction of the deciding set. The target of the nodes with large energy has the probability to be CHs which is determined by the above two stages meant for CH selection. The MATLAB is required to simulate the DEEEC Algorithm. The simulated results of the formulated DEEEC Algorithm produce good results with respect to the energy and increased lifetime when it is correlated with the current traditional clustering protocols being used in the Heterogeneous WSNs.

AbstractDeinking of recycled office (MOW) paper was carried out by using a flotation column and adding separately sodium hydroxide, and the enzyme Cellulase Thricodema Sp., as defibrillators.The de-inked cellulose fibers were characterized according to the standards of the paper industry, to compare the efficiency of the deinking of each chemical reagent used to hydrolyze the fibers and defibrillate them.The computational simulation of the molecular coupling between the enzyme and cellulose was performed, to establish the enzyme-cellulose molecular complex and then to identify the principal amino-acids of endo-β-1,4-D-glucanase in this molecular link, which are responsible for the hydrolysis of the cellulose.Experimental results show the feasibility to replace sodium hydroxide with the enzyme Cellulase Thricodema Sp., by obtaining deinked cellulose with similar optical and physical properties.The use of the enzyme instead of sodium hydroxide avoids the contamination of the residual water; in addition to that, the column is operated more easily, taking into consideration that the pH of the system goes from alkaline to neutral.

Abstract The Author endeavored to consult some of the Polish experts who deal with assessing and preventing outburst hazards as to their knowledge and experience. On the basis of this knowledge, an expert system, based on fuzzy logic, was created. The system allows automatic assessment of outburst hazard. The work was completed in two stages. The first stage involved researching relevant sources and rules concerning outburst hazard, and, subsequently, determining a number of parameters measured or observed in the mining industry that are potentially connected with the outburst phenomenon and can be useful when estimating outburst hazard. Then, the Author contacted selected experts who are actively involved in preventing outburst hazard, both in the industry and science field. The experts were anonymously surveyed, which made it possible to select the parameters which are the most essential in assessing outburst hazard. The second stage involved gaining knowledge from the experts by means of a questionnaire-interview. Subjective opinions on estimating outburst hazard on the basis of the parameters selected during the first stage were then systematized using the structures typical of the expert system based on fuzzy logic.

The article presents a methodology for a comprehensive assessment of the environmental situation in Russian Federation regions based on the pollution index and the index of the ecological tension. The evaluation was carried out in two stages. At the first stage, the degree of pollution of the atmosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere of the regions was estimated on the basis of the emission of pollutants into the atmosphere, departing from stationary sources, the formation of solid domestic wastes (SDW) and the discharge of contaminated wastewater. Based on these three indicators, a pollution index was constructed that estimates aggregate pollution level. In the second stage, the authors made the estimation of loads generated by atmospheric emissions, solid waste and waste water discharged into the territory of each region, per capita and in relation to the environmental capacity of the economy. This allows us to take into account the area of pollution, anthropogenic pressure and environmental responsibility of the population, as well as the environmental friendliness of production. On the basis of relative indicators, the index of ecological tension was created.

Knowledge Hiding

This study aimed to understand the psychological process behind employees’ knowledge hiding (KH) behaviors in organizations. KH is an intentional act of concealing knowledge when it is requested by a colleague and can lead to counterproductive consequences for the organization. Therefore, this study synthesized previous studies (n = 88) on KH through a systematic literature review. We used the cognitive–motivational–relational (CMR) theory of emotion to create a framework for the studies’ findings. Based on the framework, the psychological process behind KH has two stages—personal goal generation and the knowledge-request event appraisal process, each of which contains its own CMR process. In the first stage, an individual’s internal and external attributes related to the organization shape their personal goals. In the second stage, an individual appraises the features of a knowledge-request event in terms of both their personal goal and the internal and external attributes that created the goal. If the knowledge request is appraised as harmful for the personal goal, emotion arises and leads to the manifestation of KH. This study contributes to the knowledge management literature as, to our knowledge, it is the first to propose a CMR theory-based framework to understand the overall psychological process behind KH.
