New techniques of fish tranport from fishing gears aboard is proposed for a case of mixed aggregations of chub mackerel and japanese sardine. These species resume their mass migration to the Russian waters since 2014. Submersible impeller pumps with hydraulic power drive are used usually for catch transport aboard in the world practice of purse seining of mackerel. However, this technique is unsuitable for mixed aggregations of mackerel and sardine because the impeller pump could damage the sardine. Applicability of the vacuum and waterjet pumps for this case is considered. The vacuum fish pump TransVac was designed in 1982, initially for transfer of damage-sensitive fish from fishing vessel to shore fish processing plant, and the waterjet fish pump SilkStream was designed in 1988 for transfer of alive fish and later was adapted for fish transport aboard from trawl and seine nets. Both types of fish pumps are recommended for the medium- and large-capacity fishing vessels working with the mixed aggregations of sardine and mackerel. Using of these pumps together with freezing equipment allows to avoid losses in quality of catch.

SummaryWe are still confronted by numerous different nosographic models and problems concerning the objective evaluation of patients progress during treatment. It is interesting to consider the consequences of this situation in psychiatry which still involves a relative diversity of practical methods used in clinical trials. The recommendations of the USA Food and Drug Administration, on the one hand, constitute a highly structured and precise reference. The World Health Organization, on the other hand, promulgates general recommendations resulting from a compromise designed to satisfy the greatest number of clinicians.Despite the apparently diverse principles and the different practical methods they propose, both those sets of recommendations have been useful in inspiring clinicians to reflect upon these different methodological approaches. The qualities of the inclusion criteria used in the study of patients and the sensitivity of the different measuring instruments have allowed psychotropic drug users as well as producers to recognize the need for a certain rigour in clinical trials.The FDA and WHO guidelines have certainly improved the quality of clinical trials in psychopharmacology. However, they also represent a source of resistance to innovation.A series of consensus meetings to first reconcile US and European points of view and later to include new techniques in the recognized sets of methods would therefore be helpful.

Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) dry-cured hams production is greatly dependent on raw meat quality. This study was performed to identify genetic markers associated with the quality of dry-cured ham. Carcass traits of 229 heavy pigs belonging to three commercial genetic lines were registered (weight, EUROP classification). Phenotypic traits (Semimembranosus muscle ultimate pH, ham weight and lean meat content, adsorbed salt) of the corresponding thighs, undergone PDO ham process in three different plants, were measured, using a fast and non-invasive technology. Green ham weight and lean meat percentage influenced the estimated salt content and the weight loss during salting, even if the processing plant greatly affected the variability of the measured ham traits. The genomic data were obtained with the GeneSeek Genomic Profiler (GGP) 70k HD Porcine Array, using the slaughter day and the sex of the animals in the statistical analyses. The phenotypic traits were associated with the genotypes through GenAbel software. The results showed that 18 SNPs located on nine porcine chromosomes were found to be associated with nine phenotypic traits, mainly related to ham weight loss during salting. New associations were found between markers in the genes Neural Precursor Cell Expressed Developmentally Down-Regulated 9 (NEDD9, SSC7), T-Cell Lymphoma Invasion and Metastasis 2 (TIAM2, SSC1), and the ham quality traits. After validation, these SNPs may be useful to improve the quality of thighs for the production of PDO dry-cured hams.

Colic is the major cause of morbidity and mortality, premature deaths, and is the number one health concern in horses. To increase the quality of life for horses, it is vital to understand the causes, signs, diagnostics, treatment, and prevention of colic. Horses are hindgut fermenters and their cecal microbiome can easily be altered due to environmental and physiological changes. Colic can be induced from starch overloading, which can have detrimental effects on the cecum microbiome, such as decreasing hindgut pH and altering the production of volatile fatty acids. In addition, if the immune system becomes compromised, causing changes in the hindgut microbiome, this will trigger a proliferation of opportunistic and pathogenic bacteria, which can cause numerous gastrointestinal diseases, resulting in colic. However, identifying a variety of microorganisms in the cecum is extremely difficult and understudied because difficulties in sampling and not all bacteria strains can be cultured. Therefore, next generation sequencing has helped in identifying microbes found in the gastrointestinal tract. Using the application of metagenomics, allows scientists to be able to sequence thousands of microorganisms simultaneously. In addition, exploring new techniques to help identify and achieve a clearer picture of the microbiome population and how it may change during bouts of colic could revolutionize the way veterinarians diagnose colic and tailoring a treatment specific to the microoganisms that are proliferating. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of colic and next technological advances could increase the quality of life for horses and minimize the mortality rates.

Статья посвящена анализу и изучению различных способов получения нефтяных битумов и улучшения адгезионных свойств в различных минеральных материалах. На примере Астраханского газоперерабатывающего завода показана эффективность добавления присадок - азот-, серосодержащих веществ, элементной серы и др. для улучшения адгезионных свойств битумов к минеральным материалам. Проведен анализ воздействия перепада температур в летнее и зимнее время на вяжущие свойства битумов. Рассмотрен способ предварительной отгонки летучих компонентов из нефтей, что приводит к уменьшению содержания парафинонафтеновых углеводородов и улучшению качества получаемых битумов. В статье также приведены результаты экспериментальных исследований влияния окисления кислородом воздуха, повышения температуры процесса на пластичность битумов. Эффективность окисления битумов зависит от величины поверхности контакта между жидкой и газовой фазой. Ускорение процесса окисления достигается в 6-7 раз при хорошем перемешивании реагирующих фаз. The article also presents the results of experimental studies of the effect of oxidation with atmospheric oxygen, an increase in the process temperature on the plasticity of bitumen. The efficiency of bitumen oxidation depends on the size of the contact surface between the liquid and gas phases. Acceleration of the oxidation process is achieved 6-7 times with good mixing of the reacting phases.The article is devoted to the analysis and study of various methods of obtaining petroleum bitumen and improving the adhesion properties in various mineral materials. Using the example of the Astrakhan gas processing plant, the effectiveness of the addition of additives - nitrogen-, sulfur-containing substances, elemental sulfur, etc. - to improve the adhesion properties of bitumen to mineral materials is shown. The analysis of the effect of temperature differences in summer and winter on the binding properties of bitumen is carried out. A method for preliminary stripping of volatile components from oils is considered, which leads to a decrease in the content of paraffin-naphthenic hydrocarbons and an improvement in the quality of the obtained bitumen.

Fishing vessels must have good stability and manoeuvrability. Hull with round bottom shape has a relatively poor rolling duration compared to other forms. Rolling duration reduction will improve the quality of stability of the ship which can be obtained with bilge keel installation. The objectives of this research are 1) to compare each parameter value on model ship by using bilge keel and 2) to determine the minimum ratio of bilge keel's length toward waterline length on the model ship which still has the ability to reduce rolling motion on the ship. The method used was giving treatment to model ship and observing its rolling motion with different lengths of bilge keel. Based on the result of the research, it can be concluded that bilge keel installation with some length ratio toward length of waterline has different results significantly, and bilge keel with length ratio 0.2 still have effective capability in reducing the rolling motion of the model ship.
