Microporous starch can be used as oil adsorbent agent. The microporous starch can be produced through partial hydrolysis at temperature below gelatinization point using amylase. On the other hand, the study of amylase produced from Indonesian sea microbe, especially Brevibacterium sp. was rarely studied. Therefore, this paper discusses the tapioca characteristic made from Brevibacterium sp. amylase (treatment A) and commercial amylase (treatment B) as oil adsorbent agent. The result showed that the yield from treatment A and B was 74.65% and 12.75% while the starch granule size was 14.60 μm and 12,59 μm. The adsorbent test showed adsorption level of oil palm were 91,08% and 142,14% while for olive oil were 94,70% and 133,17%, for treatment A and B, respectively. The morphological test showed the presence of pori on the granule surface for both treatments with FTIR assessment showed no significant change in chemical functional group for both treatments. The color analysis showed almost similar brightness level between two treatments. In the end, microporous starch of treatment A has prospect as oil adsorbent agent like the one from commercial amylase

Wheat endosperm starch is deposited in large, A-type granules and smaller B-type and C-type granules. The quantitative genetics of starch granule size distribution was investigated in 2 ways. Complete diallel crosses, with 5 parents each, were prepared in tetraploid wheat, Triticum turgidum, and hexaploid wheat, Triticum aestivum. Parent and F1 plants were grown in controlled environment growth chambers with 18�C days and 13�C nights to provide parent and F2 grains from uniform conditions. In the same conditions, the basic generations of parent, F1, F2, and backcross of 6 other individual crosses were grown and F1 and backcross grains were freshly generated on these plants. Starch granule size distribution was determined in parent and F2 grains in the diallels and all possible generations in the other crosses. Granules of <10 μm diameter were considered 'B granules' (thus including C granules), and B-granule content was expressed as a percentage of total starch volume. The modal A-granule diameter was also determined.B-granule content varied widely in both species, whereas modal A-granule diameter was much more variable in tetraploids than in hexaploids. Additive gene action was more important than dominance in determining B-granule content in both species and A-granule diameter in tetraploids, whereas dominance was more important for A-granule diameter in hexaploids. Dominance acted to increase or to decrease B-granule content, depending on the cross. According to variance–covariance analysis, the line with the most dominant alleles in the hexaploids was the one lowest in B granules, but in the tetraploids it was the one highest in B granules. Digenic interactions affected B-granule content and A-granule diameter in all of the analyses of the basic generations, and nucleocytoplasmic interactions affected these traits in most of the crosses. Diallel analyses of the F2 generations, in contrast, showed a limited importance of epistasis. Cytoplasmic effects made small but significant contributions to the variation in B-granule content in some of the crosses. Variation in B-granule content and A-granule diameter appeared to be affected by different gene actions and were therefore likely to be susceptible to independent manipulations in a breeding program.

Selection Of

The first question to be answered, in seeking coordinate systems for geodynamics, is: what is geodynamics? The answer is, of course, that geodynamics is that part of geophysics which is concerned with movements of the Earth, as opposed to geostatics which is the physics of the stationary Earth. But as far as we know, there is no stationary Earth – epur sic monere. So geodynamics is actually coextensive with geophysics, and coordinate systems suitable for the one should be suitable for the other. At the present time, there are not many coordinate systems, if any, that can be identified with a static Earth. Certainly the only coordinate of aeronomic (atmospheric) interest is the height, and this is usually either as geodynamic height or as pressure. In oceanology, the most important coordinate is depth, and this, like heights in the atmosphere, is expressed as metric depth from mean sea level, as geodynamic depth, or as pressure. Only for the earth do we find “static” systems in use, ana even here there is real question as to whether the systems are dynamic or static. So it would seem that our answer to the question, of what kind, of coordinate systems are we seeking, must be that we are looking for the same systems as are used in geophysics, and these systems are dynamic in nature already – that is, their definition involvestime.

Abstract. Two experiments examined the influence of stories on recipients’ self-perceptions. Extending prior theory and research, our focus was on assimilation effects (i.e., changes in self-perception in line with a protagonist’s traits) as well as on contrast effects (i.e., changes in self-perception in contrast to a protagonist’s traits). In Experiment 1 ( N = 113), implicit and explicit conscientiousness were assessed after participants read a story about either a diligent or a negligent student. Moderation analyses showed that highly transported participants and participants with lower counterarguing scores assimilate the depicted traits of a story protagonist, as indicated by explicit, self-reported conscientiousness ratings. Participants, who were more critical toward a story (i.e., higher counterarguing) and with a lower degree of transportation, showed contrast effects. In Experiment 2 ( N = 103), we manipulated transportation and counterarguing, but we could not identify an effect on participants’ self-ascribed level of conscientiousness. A mini meta-analysis across both experiments revealed significant positive overall associations between transportation and counterarguing on the one hand and story-consistent self-reported conscientiousness on the other hand.

SummaryThe prognosis of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) has improved considerably by introduction of aggressive consolidation chemotherapy and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT). Nevertheless, only 20-30% of patients with AML achieve long-term diseasefree survival after SCT. The most common cause of treatment failure is relapse. Additionally, mortality rates are significantly increased by therapy-related causes such as toxicity of chemotherapy and complications of SCT. Including radioimmunotherapies in the treatment of AML and myelodyplastic syndrome (MDS) allows for the achievement of a pronounced antileukaemic effect for the reduction of relapse rates on the one hand. On the other hand, no increase of acute toxicity and later complications should be induced. These effects are important for the primary reduction of tumour cells as well as for the myeloablative conditioning before SCT.This paper provides a systematic and critical review of the currently used radionuclides and immunoconjugates for the treatment of AML and MDS and summarizes the literature on primary tumour cell reductive radioimmunotherapies on the one hand and conditioning radioimmunotherapies before SCT on the other hand.

In recent years, political and social conditions have changed dramatically. Many analyses help to capture these dynamics. However, they produce political pessimism: on the one hand there is the image of regression and on the other, a direct link is made between socio-economic decline and the rise of the far-right. To counter these aspects, this article argues that current political events are to be understood less as ‘regression’ but rather as a moment of movement and the return of deep political struggles. Referring to Jacques Ranciere’s political thought, the current conditions can be captured as the ‘end of post-democracy’. This approach changes the perspective on current social dynamics in a productive way. It allows for an emphasis on movement and the recognition of the windows of opportunity for emancipatory struggles.

Political ideological pluralism, religious diversity are characteristic features of modern Ukrainian society. On the one hand, multiculturalism, socio-political, religious differentiation of the latter appear as important characteristics of its democracy, as a practical expression of freedom, on the other - as a factor that led to the deconsocialization of society, gave rise to "nodal points" of tension, confrontational processes, in particular, in political and religious spheres.

Two aspects of Schumpeter' legacy are analyzed in the article. On the one hand, he can be viewed as the custodian of the neoclassical harvest supplementing to its stock of inherited knowledge. On the other hand, the innovative character of his works is emphasized that allows to consider him a proponent of hetherodoxy. It is stressed that Schumpeter's revolutionary challenge can lead to radical changes in modern economics.

Our analysis documents that the existence of hidden “holes” in the capital of not yet failed banks - while creating intertemporal pressure on the actual level of capital - leads to changing of maturity of loans supplied rather than to contracting of their volume. Long-term loans decrease, whereas short-term loans rise - and, what is most remarkably, by approximately the same amounts. Standardly, the higher the maturity of loans the higher the credit risk and, thus, the more loan loss reserves (LLP) banks are forced to create, increasing the pressure on capital. Banks that already hide “holes” in the capital, but have not yet faced with license withdrawal, must possess strong incentives to shorten the maturity of supplied loans. On the one hand, it raises the turnovers of LLP and facilitates the flexibility of capital management; on the other hand, it allows increasing the speed of shifting of attracted deposits to loans to related parties in domestic or foreign jurisdictions. This enlarges the potential size of ex post revealed “hole” in the capital and, therefore, allows us to assume that not every loan might be viewed as a good for the economy: excessive short-term and insufficient long-term loans can produce the source for future losses.

In the article the global crisis of 2008-2009 is considered as superposition of a few regional crises that occurred simultaneously but for different reasons. However, they have something in common: developed countries tend to maintain a strong level of social security without increasing the real production output. On the one hand, this policy has resulted in trade deficit and partial destruction of market mechanisms. On the other hand, it has clashed with the desire of several oil and gas exporting countries to receive an exclusive price for their energy resources.

The article analyzes the psychological basis of the theory and economic policy of libertarianism, as contained in the book by A. Greenspan "The Age of Turbulence", clarifies the strengths and weaknesses of this doctrine that led to its discredit in 2008. It presents a new understanding of liberalization in 1980-1990s as a process of institutional transformation at the micro and meso levels, implemented by politicians and entrepreneurs with predatory and opportunistic mentality. That process caused, on the one hand, the acceleration of growth, on the other hand - the erosion of informal foundations of a market system. With psychology and ideology of libertarianism, it is impossible to perceive real macro risks generated at the micro level, which lead to a systemic crisis, and to develop measures to prevent it.
