Leguminous Seeds

Five nutritious school meals were developed in a form of pastes based on leguminous seeds of Lentil, Chick pea, and Soya; and some dairy sources, all formulas contain groundnut, but few in crushed formed are used to test acceptance. The products were fortified with essential minerals and vitamins. Developed products were served as a breakfast meal to ~200 students (6-9 years juniors; 10-14 years seniors) in one of the Sudanese school where school feeding is in place (Omdurman City) for 21 days to substitute a traditional breakfast meal based on boiled Pigeon pea colloquially called “Balila” served routinely to the students. This paper covers acceptability of novel favorable products behavioral responses of senior and junior students to four meal/ subject interactions covering temptation to finishing the whole meal, reason(s) for not finishing the whole meal, time needed to finish the meal, and degree of satiety the students feel during class room hours.Almost 95% of the senior students interacted positively with pastes based on lentil or chick pea finishing or stop taking the meal in ? 10 minutes. All past products provide satiety; senior students judged on lentil based paste(s) as the meal that secures full satiety during school hours. Unlike seniors, more than 95% of junior students finished more of the soy based meal, one third of them took more time to finish lentil based meal, yet reflected satisfaction by taking less quantities from all products offered.. Degree of satiety feeling among junior students fluctuated where >90% of them showed satisfactory degree of satiety with all products offered.

Introduction. Maturity of personality, their inner world plays a substantial role in health development. For a reason, following the definition by the World Health Organization spirituality is one of human health components. Still, the level of personal maturity of an adult does not always comply with their age and can be lower. Aim is to determine the levels of personal maturity (internal development) of the humanitarian university students and to identify the peculiarities of their distribution depending on gender, duration of studying, specialty, confession of faith, and attitude to religion. Material and methods. 207 students of Borys Grinchenko Kyiv University, average age of the surveyed 19.46 ± 2.12. There were 105 males (50.7%), and 102 females (49.3%). For determination of the levels of personal maturity the questionnaire by Jose Stevens was implemented. There were 5 levels specificated: «baby», «junior», «teen», «young man/woman», and «adult». Results. Among the humanitarian university students of the specialties «physical therapy, ergotherapy» and «physical education and sports», in 62.8% (130/207) cases high levels of personal maturity were identified, in 32.4% (67/207) cases there were low levels. Among one fifth of the students (19.8%; 41/207) the combinations of several levels of personal maturity were identified. It was indicative of the youth’s failure to having an integral idea of their inner world and spirituality. The female students were more internally developed than the male ones, which was indicative of statistically substantial predominance of high levels of personal maturity among them — 66.7%; 68/102 (among the males — 48.6%; 51/105). Ideas of personal maturity among the senior students (the 4th and 5th years of studies) were more accomplished than the ones of the junior students (the 1st and 2nd years of studies). Following religious traditions both by the holders of religious beliefs and not, led to development of higher levels of personal maturity compared to those students not following religious traditions. Conclusions. One third of the humanitarian university students have low level of personal maturity (internal development). According to the level of personal maturity, females prevail over males. The students following religious traditions (the holders of religious beliefs and not) are more internally developed than those not following such traditions.

The purpose of this research is to observe the perception among senior and junior students about accounting profession and the different perception between senior students and junior students regarding accounting profession at regular program in STIESIA Surabaya. This research shows that at regular program, the perception of  senior students towards accountant as a profession is lower than junior students. Although the differences are not significant; the research shows that the more senior students get the accounting education, the more they do not like accounting and do not want to have a career as an accountant. It might because the students still do not understand the role the accounting profession play in the environment and accounting profession is not an interesting and doesn’t give them with big salary. But the uniqueness of this research is, the senior students still do not understand that a professional accountant will not work by him or herself. They will always work as team work, and always need the partners or assistants.

Rhizobium spp. was isolated from root nodules of Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L.), Sweet pea (Lathyrus sativus L.), Chick pea (Cicer arietinum L.). The isolates ware rod shaped, aerobic, gram negative, motile and non-spore forming. Isolates were positive to Catalase, Citrate utilization, Urea hydrolysis, Congored, Nitrification, Oxidase, Triple sugar iron and MacConkey agar test. The isolates can ferment all nine sugars. Then, the isolates identified as Rhizobium spp. depending on above results were subjected to 16S rRNA sequencing for further confirmation and identification. Surprisingly, the isolates were same strain or member of same cluster of Rhizobium and identified as Rhizobium sp.CCNWYC119 strain based on 16S rRNA sequence (98% similarity). Then, different parameters of soil quality enrichment and plant growth viz. plant height; weight of pods and seeds; number, fresh and dry weight of nodules were studied to test the efficacy of the isolate as biofertilizer. Here, inoculant of Rhizobium sp. isolated from Pigeon pea was used as biofertilizer. The results showed the significant increase of nodulation, enrichment of soil of rhizosphere, plant growth and yield for all three types of inoculated peas as compared with non-inoculated control peas indicating that the isolated strain could be used as a common efficient biofertilizer for Pigeon pea, Sweet pea and Chick pea. It was also found that the isolate grew optimally at temperature 28°C and pH 7.0. Moreover, the isolate was sensitive to the higher concentration of NaCl (>1%) and to antibiotics- Mecillinam, Ciprofloxacin, Cotrimoxazole, Pefloxacin, Ceftazidime and Tetracycline.

ABSTRACT During disasters, the roles of physicians, nurses, and ancillary medical staff are defined by their individual certifications, whereas the roles of medical students remain less clear. Medical students are unlicensed physicians-in-training, with variable degrees of skill and knowledge, and thus, their involvement in disaster response has historically varied. In light of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, many junior students were asked to remove themselves from the hospital setting, whereas some senior students graduated early to join the physician workforce. In this article, the authors will examine the psychosocial benefits and consequences of medical student involvement in prior disasters and developing attitudes in light of the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. We conclude by offering our thoughts on medical student involvement in future disasters.

Different Levels

This paper has adopted a quantitative approach to carry out a linguistic study, within the theoretical framework of dependency grammar. Translation is a process where source language and target language interact with each other. The present study aims at exploring the feasibility of mean dependency distance as a metric for automated translation quality assessment. The current research hypothesized that different levels of translation are significantly different in the aspect of mean dependency distance. Data of this study were based on the written translation in Parallel Corpus of Chinese EFL Learners which was composed of translations from Chinese EFL learners in various topic. The translations were human-scored to determine the levels of translation, according to which the translations were categorized. Our results indicated that: (1) senior students perform better in translation than junior students, and mean dependency distance of translations from senior group is significantly shorter than the junior; (2) high quality translations yield shorter mean dependency distance than the low quality translations; (3) mean dependency distance of translations is moderately correlated with the human score. The resultant implication suggests the potential for mean dependency distance in differentiating translations of different quality.

Peanuts (Arachis hypogeae L. cv. Florunner), like other legumes, are low in sulfur-containing amino acids such as methionine and cysteine. Previous research from our laboratory has resulted in the identification and isolation of a methionine-rich protein (MRP) from peanut. To determine the differential deposition pattern of MRP during seed development and its breakdown pattern during seed germination, immunological studies were conducted using antibodies raised against MRP. The results showed that MRP-3 was deposited very early (in the ‘white’ maturity stage), while the MRP-5 accumulated at a later (the ‘yellow’ maturity stage) stage of seed development. Germination studies showed that MRP-3 degraded after 8 days of germination, while MRP-5 degraded after 10 days of germination. The MRP-3 antibody detected homologous proteins in several other legumes and cereals such as pea, pigeon pea, chick pea, red lentil, brown lentil, rice and wheat, while the MRP-5 antibody reacted with extracts from pea, chick pea and French bean, thus showing a conservation of the MRP subunits across species.
