Opis:
The objective of the present study was to demonstrate the effect of dietary resistant dextrins, as potential prebiotics, on the intestinal microflora of young rats. Enzyme-resistant dextrin, prepared by heating of potato starch in the presence of hydrochloric (0.1% dsb) and tartaric (40% dsb) acid at 130ºC for 2 h (CA-dextrin). The experiment was performed on 24 Wistar male rats at 3-wk of age, divided by analogues in three experimental groups (control, starch and dextrin). Analyses determined the overall bacterial counts and the counts of Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides and Clostridium strains within the feces and cecal contents of rats using fluorescence in situ hybridization method. CA-dextrin had no effect on primary growth indicators (body weight, body weight gain, dietary consumption) or the mass of the small intestine and the cecum, but dextrins caused a reduction in pH and the concentration of ammonia within the cecal contents. That supplementation of diet with resistant dextrins had a positive effect on composition of intestinal microflora in rats. It increased the counts of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus strains both in the feces and in the cecum. Moreover, it reduced the counts of Clostridium and Bacteroides strains. These results may suggest that resistant dextrins exerted a prebiotic-like effect in the large intestine.

Opis:
In the present study, enzyme-resistant dextrin, prepared by heating of potato starch in the presence of hydrochloric (0.1% dsb) and citric (0.1% dsb) acid at 130ºC for 3 h (CA-dextrin), was tested as a source of carbon for probiotic lactobacilli and bifidobacteria cultured with intestinal bacteria isolated from feces of three healthy 70-year old volunteers. The dynamics of growth of bacterial monocultures in broth containing citric acid (CA)-modified dextrin were estimated. It was also investigated whether lactobacilli and bifidobacteria cultured with intestinal bacteria in the presence of resistant dextrin would be able to dominate the intestinal isolates. Prebiotic fermentation of resistant dextrin was analyzed using prebiotic index (PI). In co-cultures of intestinal and probiotic bacteria, the environment was found to be dominated by the probiotic strains of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, which is a beneficial effect.

W wyniku pracy badawczej opracowano materiał włóknisty, o strukturze przestrzennej, przeznaczony na warstwy przeciwuderzeniowe w ochraniaczach stosowanych w ubiorach i wyposażeniu ochronnym osób uprawiających sporty urazogenne. Materiał otrzymano w wyniku nowatorskiego zastosowania proekologicznych włókien kokosowych, o dużej zawartości lignin oraz środka wiążącego z udziałem kopolimeru etylenu i octanu winylu z dodatkiem środków porotwórczych. Opracowany materiał został zgłoszony pod nazwą Impactex w 2005 r. do Urzędu Patentowego jako projekt wynalazczy nr P-374169. Jego skuteczność w zakresie tłumienia energii uderzenia potwierdziły rezultaty badań przeprowadzonych na stanowisku, służącym do oceny zdolności amortyzacji uderzenia ochraniaczy sportowych. Oryginalna konstrukcja stanowiska umożliwia taka ocenę przy jednoczesnym zastosowaniu dwóch metod badawczych. Została również zaproponowana nowatorska metoda oceny rozkładu siły pod ochraniaczem, podczas badań na stanowisku, wykorzystująca cienkościenne czujniki ciśnienia. Procedura badań ochraniaczy przeciwuderzeniowych przewiduje także, możliwość porównania wytypowanych wskaźników z przyjętymi w literaturze biomechanicznej wybranymi kryteriami dla określania poziomu ludzkiej tolerancji na uszkodzenie danego obszaru ciała.
As a result of research work, the fibrous material featuring 3D-structure has been developed and dedicated for impact-resistant layers of protectors applied in clothing and protective equipment for individuals practising traumatic sports. The material was gained by innovative applying eco-friendly coconut fibres, reach of lignin and binding means with co-polymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate with porogenous agent. The developed material has been submitted in 2005 under the name of IMPACTEX to the Patent Office as the invention project no. P-374169. Its efficiency on attenuating the energy of hitting was confirmed by the results of tests executed on a workstation designed for assaying the sports protectors' capability to suppress impacts. The original design of the workstation allows for such an assay with two test methods applied simultaneously. An innovative method of assaying the force distribution under the protector was also suggested, while testing on the workstation with thin-walled pressure sensors used. The testing procedure for impact-resistant protectors includes also the possibility of comparison selected indices to the selected criteria accepted by biomechanical bibliography to determine level of human toleration for injury of given area of body.

Opis:
The increase in number of antibiotic resistant bacteria poses a serious environmental and health problem. The development of microbial resistance is intensified by the widespread use of antibiotics in medicine, veterinary, farming and aquaculture. The wastewater treatment plants receiving the wastewater from hospitals, slaughterhouses, farms, pharmaceutical industry and houses can be potential places of spreading of antibiotic resistant genes. The molecular mechanisms of the bacterial resistance, including the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistant genes and the presence of mobile genetic elements can be responsible for the increase in antibiotic resistance during wastewater treatment. The aim of this study was to analyze the phenomenon of bacterial resistance to selected β-lactam antibiotics (ESBL) by detecting the genes that determine this resistance. The PCR method was used to analyze the occurrence of two genes: blaPER and blaGES in wastewater samples. It was revealed that the resistant/total bacteria ratio was significantly higher in the effluent compared with the influent wastewater. Genes blaPER and blaGES were isolated from several strains predominating in both aeration tank (5% and 20% respectively) and effluent wastewater (15% and 12% respectively).

Here, we introduce especially the genes required for the initiation of pathogenic life cycle, the suppression of otherwise induction of resistance responses, massive production of virulence factors in plant pathogenic bacteria and an unique plant gene responsible for the development of canker symptom. From these findings we came to raise some new strategies to construct disease-resistant plants by genetic engineering.

Opis:
Explosives with improved high temperature properties are usually referred to as 'thermally stable explosives' or heat-resistant explosives. They are safer, more reliable and more stable at elevated temperatures and find applications in modern Ordnance, Space and Nuclear applications. This paper discusses general approaches for the synthesis of thermally stable explosives, their properties and specific applications. This paper also gives a comparative account of the properties of some of the most thermally stable explosives reported so far. Based on their ease of synthesis, properties (mainly stability at elevated temperatures and insensitivity to impact, friction and percussion) and cost, TATB is considered as a benchmark, thermally stable explosive which is discussed in detail. Furthermore, this review also describes the synthesis and properties of BTDAONAB which does not melt below 550 °C and is considered a better thermally stable explosive than TATB. Finally, a new line of research in this field in the years to come is also highlighted.

Opis:
The technical condition of the blades has a critical influence on the reliability and life span of a gas turbine and an engine into which it is built in. The main causes of blade damage are overheating, creeping, thermal fatigue, high temperature corrosion, etc. It is often caused by adverse operational conditions or manufacturing defect, e.g. using insufficiently durable types of heat-resistant protective coatings or applied in an improper manner on the blade material. Reaction of coatings and blade material to mechanical and thermal loads depends mainly on the operating temperature of the turbine. Selection of a protective coating and material to manufacture a blade with an assumed strength must take into account its mechanical and thermal properties at maximum aerofoil temperature. The article presents characteristic forms of operational damages to the gas turbine blades of a turbojet aero engine. Distinguished were operational factors and their influence on the technical condition of coatings during the engine operation period. An influence of excess exhaust gas temperature on the condition of the heat-resistant blade layer was shown. Shown were also results of morphology tests of coating degradation types. Results of micro-structure tests of the blade superalloy after damage to the heat-resistant coating were also presented.

Downy mildew (Sclerospora graminicola (Sacc) Schroet.) of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.] is a devastating disease that has greatly led to grain yield loss in Nigeria. A field experiment was carried out in 2010 at Bakura (Zamfara State) and Zaria (Kaduna State) in North West Nigeria. The objective of this paper was to evaluate downy mildew resistance in some pearl millet using Complete Randomized Block Design. Four resistant male varieties (PEO5532, SOSATC88, P1449 and DMR15) and four susceptible female varieties (BDP1, MOP1, LCIC9702 and PEO5984 were used in this study. The resistant varieties were crossed with the susceptible varieties using North Carolina design 11 for the mating to form sixteen (F1) hybrids. The F1 hybrids were further evaluated along with their parents for downy mildew resistance, grain yield and other agronomic traits (such as: Plant height, panicle height, number of tillers per plant, panicle diameter and number panicles per plot). The resistant male parents were found to be susceptible while none of the hybrids was resistant to downy mildew. However, the degree of incidence and severity of downy mildew disease defer in the two locations. The hybrids exhibited tolerance to downy mildew disease and their yields were higher than their parents. The analysis of variance (one tale ANOVA or which one?) showed highly significant difference among parents and hybrids for all agronomic characters except disease severity and number of tillers per plant. Location × genotype interaction effects were only significant for grain yield and number of panicles per plot.

Purpose: Today, Enterococcus species are one of the most frequent etiological agents in nosocomial infections. The aim of this study was to determine the susceptibility to antibiotics and the prevalence of high-level aminoglycoside resistance (HLAR) among Enterococcus strains. Materials and methods: The susceptibility of 85 isolates of Enterococcus (47 E. faecalis and 38 E. faecium) was determined using the disk diffusion method. The results were interpreted according to European Committee on Antimicrobial Suscepti-bility Testing (EUCAST) guidelines. PASW Statistics 17.0 was used for statistical analysis. Results: E. faecalis strains showed the highest susceptibility to ampicillin, tigecycline, vanco-mycin, imipenem, and linezolid and E. faecium to linezolid, tigecycline, and quinupristin/dalfopristin. Among all tested strains, high-level gentamicin resistance (HLGR) was found in 4% of E. faecalis and 8% of E. faecium strains, high-level strepto-mycin resistance (HLSR) in 45% and 42%, and HLAR in 50% and 32% of strains, respectively. HLGR was detected only in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE)− strains (12%), while HLSR in 76.9% of VRE+ and 24% of VRE− strains, and HLAR in 23.1% of VRE+ and 64% of VRE− strains. The tested strains were also divided into two groups: HLSR+ and HLAR+. In both groups, statistically significant susceptibility differences (p<0.05) were found for ampicillin, imipenem and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. The most frequent antibiotic resistance profile among E. faecalis strains was SR (resistance phenotype to strepto-mycin), and among E. faecium, AMPR, IMPR, CNR, SR, SXTR (ampicillin, imipenem, gentamicin, streptomycin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole). Conclusions: This study showed the slowly increasing prevalence of HLAR and resistance to newer antibiotics (linezolid and tigecycline) among Enterococcus strains. It is necessary to search for new directions in the treatment of enterococcal infections.

Opis:
The treatment of patients with prostate cancer, who do not qualify for the radical therapy is based on the use of surgical or pharmacological castration methods. The effectiveness of the so-called androgen deprivation tends to decrease over time. Even in the absence of distant metastases on imaging studies, the resistance for the hormonal castration may be developed. At this moment, the use of new generation androgen receptor inhibitors may reduce the risk of metastases or death. The paper presents a case report of a patient with prostate cancer without distant metastases who started therapy with apalutamide at the moment of developing re-sistance to the pharmacological castration.

Pharmaceutical compounds have been introduced into the aquatic ecosystems in multiple ways and sources, which negatively affects the health of the environment and humans. The river near the hospital sewage disposal is host environment for drug-resistant bacteria (DRB). In this context, the aim of the research was to detect the presence of pharmaceuticals in hospital wastewater, after treatment, at river point followed by isolation of bacteria and test for resistant pharmaceutical compound. Fifteen species of bacteria isolated by angiogenic methods were identified and tested using the well diffusion test to determine the resistance of selected bacteria to ibuprofen by survival assessment. This study showed that the ibuprofen detected by GC-mass was available in all selected points at a concentration of 3 to 120 mg/L. Lecuco. mesen.cremris and Koc.rosea have a high ability to break down the ibuprofen compound. Thus, the bacteria isolated from hospital wastewater can biologically degrade ibuprofen.

The article presents the selected results of strength tests on the effectiveness of bonding high-alloy steel 1.4310. Sheet steel is one of the materials that are difficult to activate energy. Effective joining of it is difficult, requires selection of the appropriate bonding technology. The paper focuses on the comparative tests of shear strength of one-single lap welded and bonded joints. The welding process was performed on 3 groups of samples TIG welding and argon, where the variable value of the welding process was current: 60A, 70A, 80A. The adhesion process was performed in 6 groups of samples which differed in the method of surface preparation and the type of the adhesive. Adhesive joints were made by using adhesive of epoxy resin and a hardener: Epidian 61/TFF at a mass ratio of 100:22 and Epidian 61/IDA at a mass ratio of 100:40. As a way of surface preparation applied 3 different, but simplified and environmentally friendly methods of surface preparation: degreasing with using cleaner Loctite 7061, abrasive machining with P320 and degreasing and grinding with abrasive T800 and degreasing were used. Make joints and curing the adhesive joints were carried out at ambient temperature. Analyzed the joints were tested destructive – which set out the shear strength, in accordance with DIN EN 1465 on the testing machine Zwick / Roell Z150. Based on the results of the research it was found that better results were obtained for the maximum welded joints, but this result was similar to the maximum value of the strength of the adhesive bond.

Opis:
Modern antiandrogens: abiraterone acetate (inhibitor of CYP17 cytochrome) and enzalutamide (irreversible inhibitor of androgen receptor) are the drugs that are increasingly often administered in treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer. Despite their clinical efficacy, especially in terms of prolonged survival and improved quality of life of patients, they pose of problem for a practicing oncologist such as possible cardiovascular complications (particularly arterial hypertension), which may lead to the cessation of this form of therapy. This article provides a brief overview of the mechanisms responsible for the above complications, including practical recommendations in the event such complications arise. A simple scheme of action for control of cardiovascular risk factors has been presented, which can improve the prognosis in this population of patients.

Opis:
As part of a cooperation project between the Institute for Machine Tools, Stuttgart, Germany, and EMO Systems/Nuton GmbH, Berlin, Germany, a prototype of a multiaxial force platform with disturbance compensation for the measurement of the cutting forces in machine tools was developed. Commercially available products based on piezoelectric technology are subject to a degree of measurement uncertainty and therefore characterized by various disturbances. Interpreting measurement data of the commercially available products is complex, time-consuming and prone to errors. This paper describes the mechanical design and the simulation of the multiaxial force measuring system with the finite element method (FEM) as well as the conceptual development of a reduced model for a multibody simulation with the purpose of implementing a compensation algorithm. The measurement uncertainty was reduced by using appropriate hardware and software for the compensation of the various disturbances so that the application of the force platform would also be possible in the industrial application for the process diagnosis, the control and the regulation in machine tools. Systems based on strain gauge technology have some advantages in the field of zero-point stability and also provide a less expensive solution. For the disturbance compensation, an additional force and torque sensor system with eight channels was used for the detection of the platform displacement and inclination. With the help of appropriate algorithms for the disturbance compensation and their integration in the evaluation software, the disturbances could be reduced to a minimum.

Opis:
Introduction. Tuberculosis is one of the oldest infections known to mankind. Of all infectious diseases, tuberculosis causes the most fatalities of any infection. The incidence of tuberculosis on the rise due to the increased prevalence of HIV infection. The incidence of drug resistance strains of mycobacterium is also on the rise. When the mycobacterium is resistant to both INH and rifampicin it is called multi drug resistant tuberculosis. There is a primary and an acquired type of drug resistance. Multidrug resistant tuberculosis is a not only a problem for the patient but also for society at large. The treatment of multidrug resistant tuberculosis requires an entirely different approach. Aim. In this review, we are going to describe the etiopathogenesis, diagnosis, investigations and treatment of multi drug resistant tuberculosis. Material and methods. Analysis of the current literature. Results. Genetic factors, previous treatment, and other factors predisposes the onset of drug resistance. By early detection and prevention of spread of drug resistant strains we can prevent the spread of resistant strains. Conclusion. Drug resistance in tuberculosis is a very complex and dangerous problem. We have to prevent the development and spread of MDRTB. Good quality drugs should be used and made available to all sections of the population. Enhancing the National tuberculosis programs is the best way to attain an effective way to control this menace.

Opis:
In certain small-gold mining activities in West Lombok, Indonesia, the tailings containing mercury are discharged to agricultural lands, reducing their productivity. One of the efforts to restore the land is by bioremediation of mercury, using mercury-resistant microbes. This study was aimed to isolate the mercury-resistant bacteria from small-scale gold mine tailings containing mercury, and to test their capability in accumulating mercury. Bacterial isolation and identification were conducted from nutrient broth supplemented with 5 ppm HgCl2. The isolated bacteria were tested for mercury accumulation in the nutrient broth containing 10, 20 and 30 ppm Hg for 24 hours, and in small-scale gold mine tailing containing 41.37 ppm Hg for 2 weeks. The results showed that there were four pure isolates of mercury-resistant bacteria which were identified as Brevundimonas vesicularis, Nitrococcus mobilis, Fusobacterium aquatile and Fusobacterium necrogenes. The highest Hg accumulation from nutrient broth liquid media containing 10, 20 and 30 ppm Hg was observed for Brevundimonas vesicularis. The mercury accumulation efficiency of the four bacteria applied to small-scale gold mine tailing containing mercury was in the order of Fusobacterium aquatile (76.1%) > Brevundimonas vesicularis (75.6%) > Fusobacterium necrogenes (74.4%) > Nitrococcus mobilis (74.2%). On the basis of the Hg accumulation efficiency of more than 75%, Fusobacterium aquatile and Brevundimonas vesicularis are prospective for bioremediation of mercury-contaminated soils.

Introduction. Multi-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolated from patients has become one of the most hazardous pathogens in health care settings. The aim of the study was to analyze pneumonia caused by Acinetobacter baumannii in patients hospitalized because of exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD), who were admitted to the Pulmonology Ward of the Masovian Specialistic Hospital in Radom (MSS). The incidence and drug sensitivity of these non-fermenting rods were evaluated, and compliance with antimicrobial procedure with the algorithm of the guidelines in applicable recommendations, was estimated. This should result in determining the local patterns of resistance and verifying therapeutic procedures in accordance with the assumptions of hospital antibiotic policy. In addition, the study examined the effectiveness of empiric and targeted therapy according to the clinical condition of the patient, and the eradication of A. baumannii, in comparison with the aggravating factors of the patient. Materials and Method. The retrospective study included 90 patients with exacerbation of COPD whose etiological factor of infection was A. baumannii, hospitalized in the Department of Pulmonology (MSS) in 2012–2016. Results. Studies were conducted on 90 patients with COPD exacerbation from which A. baumannii was isolated. Co-infections with other bacterial species among 41 patients were additionally noted. The majority of A. baumannii strains showed a high resistance (90%) to fluoroquinolones, ceftazidime, piperacillin/tazobactam. For strains causing a co-infection, drug resistance was successively 44–56%, 44%, 44%. All of patients received empirical therapy. The most commonly used drug was amoxicillin with a clavulanic acid, often combined with fluoroquinolone. This type of therapy was effective among 10% of patients. The mortality in this group was determined at 29%. Among 79% of patients with COPD, a targeted therapy was performed which proved to be effective in 58% of treated cases by susceptibility testing. The highest efficacy was observer after the use of colistin and carbapenems. Conclusion. In the performed study, the infections caused by multi-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, were observed in COPD, which should be taken into consideration in choosing empirical antibiotic therapy. Simultaneously, the local resistance patterns of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative strains co-infecting COPD should be considered in empirical treatment. Moreover, both additional clinical complication and co-infections contribute to a more severe course of diseases. In this study, the mortality percent exceeded 29%.

Opis:
The encryption of image data is artful as compare to others due to some special characteristics such as entropy, contrast, the correlation between the pixels, intensity, and homogeneity. During encryption process, it is conventionally not easy to manage these characteristics with non-chaotic cryptosystems. Therefore for the sake of strong encryption algorithms, in last decades many cryptographers have presented invulnerable schemes for image encryption based on the chaotic maps. This manuscript aims to propose a strong encryption scheme based on a symmetric group of permutation advanced encryption standard (AES) substitution boxes and modified Chebyshev map. Principally, the secret key depends upon the parameters of Chebyshev map to create confusion in the main image and is encrypted by the scheme made from the S8 AES S-boxes and chaotic map. By this procedure, one can obtain an encrypted image that is entirely twisted. The results of analyses showed that the presented image encryption is strong and invulnerable.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate in detail both the in vivo and in vitro efficacy of the enzyme agents, ZYMOX® Plus Otic (ZYMOX-P), in the treatment of canine otitis externa (OE). Eight dogs with a diagnosis of non-seasonal severe chronic OE were recruited for the study. ZYMOX-P was administered for 2-4 weeks. The Otitis Index Score (OTIS3) and bacteria or yeast colony growth were measured. Also, minimum biofilm (BF) formation inhibition concentration (MBIC) and BF bactericidal concentration (BBC) were measured in vitro. OTIS3 showed a statistically significant reduction after treatment (88.2%, p<0.001; pre-treatment = 11.0 ± 0.9; post-treatment = 1.3 ± 0.4, mean ± SEM). The individual OTIS scores, erythema, edema, erosions/ ulcerations, exudate and pruritus showed significant reduction (85.7%, 95.7%, 83.3%, 80.0%, and 89.3%, respectively). Microscopic examination revealed the presence of BF exopolysaccharide in all 8 ear samples when stained with alcian blue. Seven of the 8 dogs (87.5%) showed a reduction in colony growth. ZYMOX-P was effective at 34-fold and 16-fold dilutions on MBIC and BBC, respectively. These findings indicate that ZYMOX-P has efficacy against BF-related infection and is beneficial when used for the management of canine OE.

Here, we investigate the antimicrobial activity of four essential oils extracted from leaves and fruits of S. areira exhibiting different chemical profiles. The antibacterial activity against the human pathogenic bacteria Staphylococcus aureus susceptible as well as methicillin resistant strain was assessed by the broth microdilution assay. The results showed that the limonene-rich oil extracted from the leaves and fruits have potent antibacterial effect on S. aureus ATCC 25923, while the α-phellandrene-rich fruit oil having a lower content of limonene showed the lowest antibacterial efficacy. In this work, for the first time, we demonstrated the bactericidal activity of essential oils isolated from fruits and leaves of S. areira against susceptible and methicillin resistant S. aureus strains. All results point out the potential use of the S. areira oils as antimicrobial agents to be used, at least against Staphylococcal infections.

To analyze the composition of norfloxacin-resistant bacteria and norfloxacin-degrading bacteria in pond water and sediment in subtropical China, the composition of antibiotic resistant bacteria in pond water and sediment enriched with norfloxacin-containing medium was analyzed by high-throughput sequencing. Sediment and water samples were collected from 3 fish ponds in subtropical China, and domesticated with norfloxacin, subsequently norfloxacin-resistant bacteria through high-throughput sequencing of 16S rDNA, and isolated norfloxacin--degrading bacteria. Our results showed that the pond sediment and water contain a variety of norfloxacin-resistant bacteria, mainly from Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, and Chloroflexi. Moreover, we isolated two norfloxacin-degrading bacteria (NorXu-2 and NorXu-3). The norfloxacin-degrading rate by NorXu-2 and NorXu-3 in the culture mediums with 200 μg/mL was the highest, which was up to 49.71% and 35.79%, respectively. When the norfloxacin concentration was 200 μg/mL, NorXu-2 and NorXu-3 had the best norfloxacin- -degrading effect at pH of 6, and the degradation rates were 53.64% and 45.54%, respectively. Moreover, NorXu-3 exhibited a good tolerance to high NaCl concentration. These results not only provided basic data for the follow-up study of the molecular mechanism of antimicrobial microbial degradation, but also provided potential norfloxacin degrading bacteria for norfloxacin removal and bioremediation in aquaculture environment.

Opis:
The emergence of resistance to first-line drugs used to treat tuberculosis (TB) has become a significant public health concern and an obstacle in implementation of effective TB control activities globally. In India, Revised National TB Control Program (RNTCP) introduced the programmatic management of drug-resistant TB (PMDT) services to address the needs of MDR-TB patients. To execute the plan with perfection, RNTCP has devised MDR suspect criteria – A, B, and C so that gradually PMDT services can be extended to the whole country. These criteria were framed to run in tandem with the strengthening of the laboratory services so that the existing certified laboratories can carry out the culture and DST services without being overburdened. Altogether, RNTCP is committed for the strengthening and capacity building of its resources to offer culture and DST services right at the time of diagnosis.

Opis:
The main idea of the work is to create scientifically grounded technological conditions for treatment of tab grooves in the discs from heat resisting steel, which stipulate formation of roughness of treated surfaces at the level of design requirements, useful compressive residual stresses and a defective surface layer, which increases reliability of operation of interlock in the absence of any defects on the working surfaces of tab grooves of various types, under conditions of maximizing efficiency of their treatment method. Dependences of roughness of the treated surface on the technological factors of the broaching process Ra = f (V, S, γ, HRC) have been proposed. As a result of experimental studies, the nature of distribution of residual stresses, depth and degree of strengthening of the surface layer, depending on the technological conditions of the tab grooves treatment, has been established. The article presents research of surface quality parameters; study all the selected parameters of the surface quality and surface layer and an algorithm to perform experimental work. The algorithm has been built on major principles of control and fixation methods, which stipulate use of non-destructive methods of control. Graphs of strengthening the surface layer of samples, depending on their processing modes and graphs of the distribution of residual stresses in the surface layer are also presented.

Opis:
This study was conducted to determine the occurrence, antibiotic susceptibility pattern, and plasmid profile of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterobacteriaceae isolated from soymilk hawked in the Ibadan Polytechnic Community, Nigeria. Bacterial isolation and identification were performed using a culture-dependent method and biochemical characterization, respectively, while antibiotic susceptibility was tested using the disk diffusion method. Plasmid analysis and curing were performed using standard procedures. The results revealed the following occurrence rate of bacterial species in soymilk samples collected from all axes (South, North, East, West, and Central) of Ibadan Polytechnic: Citrobacter spp., 64%; Klebsiella spp., 7%; Enterobacter spp., Escherichia coli, and Serratia spp., 6% each; Proteus spp., 5%; and Salmonella spp. and Shigella spp., 3% each. The highest heterotrophic bacterial count of 9.3 × 103 CFU/ml was recorded at Ibadan Polytechnic North and South, while the least count (3.2 × 107 CFU/ml) was recorded at Ibadan Polytechnic Central. The highest enteric bacterial count of 1.3 × 103 CFU/ml was recorded in soymilk samples from Ibadan Polytechnic Central, while the least count of 1.7 × 107 CFU/ml was recorded in soymilk samples from Ibadan Polytechnic North. A total of 26% of the isolates showed resistance to cefpodoxime, while 88% of the isolates were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Four of the MDR isolates possessed plasmid bands ranging from 6 to 1 with molecular weights from 2.7 to 17.2 kbp. Enterobacteriaceae such as isolates O14 (Klebsiella spp.) and B10 (E. coli) retained their resistance to antibiotics even after removal of plasmids, while isolates S13 (Citrobacter spp.) and O4 (Shigella spp.) were susceptible to some antibiotics after curing. Conclusively, soymilk sold in the sampled areas was highly contaminated with Enterobacteriaceae, thereby indicating poor hygiene standards of soymilk production.

The article presents the research results referring to the analysis of the influence of finish treatment (lathing, grinding, burnishing) on the contact fatigue of steel applied to marine pump shafts. The research was performed on a roller 25mm in diameter made of X5CrNi18-10 (AISI304 L) stainless steel. The lathing process was carried out by means of a Sandvik Coromant cutting too, the grinding was done by grinding attachment to a lathe, whereas the process of burnishing was performed by SRMD burnisher by Yamato. Within the research, the optimalization of burnishing technological parameters was conducted on account of the minimalization of Ra surface roughness coefficient as well as the maximalization of SU degree of surface layer relative hardness. The multi criteria optimalization conducted by min-max method with regard to minimum surface roughness as well as maximum degree of surface layer hardness demonstrated that burnishing process should be carried out at the following technological parameters: burnishing force 1.1 kN, burnishing speed 35 m/min, feed 0.13 mm/rev. In addition, the influence of the burnisher passes number on the surface layer quality was determined. It is essential for this research to determine the burnishing influence on the service conditions which comprises the electrochemical corrosion research, friction wear and contact fatigue research. The paper will present the research results of contact fatigue examination of samples after finish machining.

Opis:
Resistant starches are type of dietary fibers. However, their physiological effects depend on the way they resist digestion in the gastrointestinal tract. The objective of this study was to examine the hypothesis that new type of RS4 preparations, of in vitro digestibility of about 50%, obtained by cross-linking and acetylation, acts as a prebiotic by increasing short chain fatty acids content in cecum digesta. The rats were fed with diet containing pregelatinized, cross-linked and acetylated starches as a main carbohydrate source. Pregelatinized, but not chemically modified, potato starch was used in the composition of the control diet. After two weeks of experiment the increase of short chain fatty acids contents in ceceum digesta was observed. The intake of starch A, cross-linked only with adipic acid, resulted in increase of about 40% of short chain fatty acids content, whereas starch PA cross-linked with sodium trimetaphosphate and adipic acid of about 50%. The utmost twofold increase was observed in the case of the production of propionic acid. In contrast, the content of butyric acid increased (12%) only as an effect of consumption of starch PA and even decreased (about 30%) in case of starch A. Both RS4 starches caused an increase of the production of acetic acid by more than 40%. No changes in serum biochemistry, liver cholesterol and organ weights of rats were stated.

Opis:
The paper evaluates the causes related to the fatigue damage in a conveyor slide plate, exposed to high-frequency cyclic loads. The plate was made of 1.4301 acid-resistant steel. The fractography showed that the plate failure was caused by fatigue crack. A nonlinear analysis of plate deformation was conducted using the finite element method (FEA) in LS-Dyna software. The maximum normal stresses in the plate fracture were used in further analysis. A “fatigue limit” calculated initially using a FITNET procedure was above the maximum stress calculated using FEA. It indicates that the structural features of the plate were selected correctly. The experimental test results for 1.4301 acid-resistant steel were described using a probabilistic Weibull distribution model. Reliability was determined for the obtained S-N curve at 50% and 5% failure probability allowing for the selected coefficients (cycle asymmetry, roughness, variable load) and the history of cyclic loading. Cumulative damage was determined using the Palmgren-Miner hypothesis. The estimated fatigue life was similar to the actual value determined in the operating conditions for the S-N curve at 5% failure probability. For engineering calculations, the S-N curve at max. 5% failure probability is recommended.

Opis:
Wear resistant welds are used in many industries when it is necessary to protect machine components and structures against wear caused by operating conditions. Often the main parameter determining the usefulness of these welds is high hardness reaching about 60 HRC. In many cases, after the surfacing process, a mesh of cracks is formed in the surface layer, which can affect the durability of the hard-wearing layers used. The paper presents the analysis of the influence of preheating up to 400 °C on the properties of welds and its effect on the number of cracks in the surface layer. The use of preheating allowed to reduce the number of cracks in the padding weld to 1. The optimum heating temperature was 200 °C, for which the number of cracks have been reduced and the lowest wear was recorded.
Napoiny trudnościeralne są wykorzystywane w wielu gałęziach przemysłu, gdy zachodzi konieczność ochrony elementów maszyn i konstrukcji przed zużyciem wywołanym warunkami eksploatacji. Często głównym parametrem określającym przydatność tych napoin jest wysoka twardość sięgająca ok. 60 HRC. W wielu przypadkach po procesie napawania powstaje w warstwie wierzchniej siatka pęknięć, która może wpływać na trwałość stosowanych warstw trudnościeralnych. W pracy przedstawiono analizę wpływu podgrzewania wstępnego do 400 °C na właściwości napoin oraz jego wpływu na ilość pęknięć w warstwie wierzchniej. Zastosowanie podgrzewania wstępnego pozwoliło zredukować ilość pęknięć w napoinie do 1. Optymalną temperaturą podgrzewania było 200 °C, dla której zanotowano zmniejszenie ilości pęknięć oraz najmniejsze zużycie.

Opis:
In a 3-year experiment three late cultivars of clubroot-resistant white cabbage: ‘Kilafur F1’, ‘Kilaton F1’ and ‘Kilaxy F1’ were compared with 3 standard cultivars: ‘Bloktor F1’, ‘Kingston F1’ and ‘Novator F1’. The experiment was located on a stand where in the previous year also cabbage was cultivated. During vegetation the degree of plants affected by clubroot was determined. Yield as well as commercial and nutritional quality of cabbage heads were evaluated. In all three years of the experiment it was demonstrated that clubroot-resistant cultivars were not at all affected by Plasmodiophora brassicae pathogen while other cultivars were affected to a varied degree. High commercial yield of clubroot-resistant cultivars and a very good head quality were obtained. In the same conditions, non-resistant cultivars demonstrated a significantly lower yield level.
W trzyletnich badaniach porównywano 3 późne odmiany kapusty głowiastej białej odporne na kiłę: 'Kilafur F1', 'Kilaton F1' i 'Kilaxy F1' oraz 3 standardowe: 'Bloktor F1', 'Kingston F1' i 'Novator F1'. Doświadczenie zlokalizowano na stanowisku, na którym w poprzednim roku była również uprawiana kapusta. W czasie wegetacji szacowano stopień porażenia roślin przez kiłę. Oceniano plonowanie oraz jakość handlową i odżywczą główek kapusty. We wszystkich latach prowadzenia badań wykazano brak jakiegokolwiek porażenia odmian odpornych przez patogena Plasmodiophora brassicae, podczas gdy pozostałe uległy w różnym stopniu infekcji. Uzyskano duży plon handlowy odmian odpornych oraz bardzo dobrą jakość ich główek. W tych samych warunkach uzyskano znacząco niższe plony odmian nieodpornych.

The study focuses on the problem of determination of low-cycle fatigue properties for the chosen group of creep-resistant steels used in the power and chemical industries. It tries to find the parameter which would describe well the fatigue life and take into account mechanical loads and temperature. The results of LCF tests have been presented in the paper. New parameter P has been introduced. This parameter joins a plastic strain range, a stress range and temperature. The fatigue life has been predicted versus parameter P. The comparison of the predicted and observed values of fatigue life shows the agreement between these values. The method of fatigue life prediction formulated in this way is expected to describe the behavior of materials under thermo-mechanical fatigue.

Introduction and aim. In real life, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients (mCRPC) had more complex clinical presentation than patients in the COU-AA-302 trial. This study primarily aimed to describe the overall survival of chemotherapy-naive mCRPC treated with abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP). Other relevant outcomes and baseline characteristics of these patients were also evaluated. Material and methods. This retrospective, observational study collected data from chemotherapy-naive mCRPC patients treated with AAP in Vietnam. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to estimate time to treatment failure (TTF), and overall survival (OS). The impact of baseline characteristics on OS was explored using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models. Results. Data from 65 eligible patients were analyzed. The rate of PSA response was 73.8%, median PSA PFS was 10.5 months (95% CI: 7.4–13.6), median TTF was 15 months (95% CI: 11.1–18.9), and median OS was 24.9 months (95% CI: 18.9–30.9). Shorter OS was significantly associated with a higher Gleason score (≥8), shorter time from ADT start to mCRPC (<12 months), visceral metastases, and <50% PSA decline (p<0.05). Conclusion. Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone is well tolerated and effective for chemotherapy-naive mCRPC patients in clinical practice. Moreover, Gleason score, visceral metastasis, time from ADT start to mCRPC, and PSA response are the independent indicators for predicting the OS of mCRPC patients in both univariate and multivariate analyses.

Opis:
Actinomycetes are the most profitable and biotechnologically valued prokaryotes representing the genera consisting of Streptomyces, Arthrobacter, Actinomyces, Cornyebacterium, Micrococcus, Micromonospora and other diverse species of microorganisms. Actinomycetes represent a group of one of the most powerful secondary metabolite producers which possess a wide range of biological activities. Streptomyces, an important genus under actinomycetes, alone serves as the huge producer of a number of biologically active molecules. This genus possesses a huge potential of synthesizing various different and novel active metabolites. Due to the gradual reduction of the chances of isolation of novel compounds within Streptomyces coming from terrestrial environs resulting in the increase of resistant pathogenic microorganisms, marine actinomycetesmay form a platform for novel drug synthesis, which in-turn may form an extraordinary tool for combating a wide range of resistant microbes. The role of marine actinomycetes extends to diverse fields such as antibiotic production, production of antibacterial and antifungal compounds, synthesis of enzymes and enzyme inhibitors, synthesis of anticancer drugs and various other lifesaving molecules. Marine actinomycetes also play an important role in biofouling and nanoparticle synthesis. Thus speakingsuccinctly, marine actinomycetes are biologically very important as they serve their useful purpose in various fields of biology.

Opis:
The main idea of the work is to create a physical model of high speed broaching heat-resistant materials is used to study the parameters of the surface layer quality. Modelling is a method of mediated cognition, in which the object under study is in some correspondence with the model, and the object-model is capable in some way or another to replace the original at some stages of the cognitive process. Physical modelling is primarily distinguished by the fact that studies are conducted on models with physical similarity, i.e. preserving completely (or at least partially) the nature of the phenomena. The work of the broach can be likened to the work of a number of planning cutter displaced relative to each other by a small amount, which is called lifting (feed per tooth). Therefore, for experimental work, a planning cutter of a special geometric was designed and manufactured – a physical model of a broach, in which geometric, mechanical and dynamic similarity is realized. The article also presents an experimental justification for the use of the created physical model in the study of the surface quality parameters of the, tab grooves of turbine and compressors disks made of heat-resistant materials.

Background. MRSA and MLSB resistant S. aureus are known as important pathogens, which are responsible for many cases of both hospital and community-acquired infections worldwide. Studying drug discovery from plant sources is regarded as an important prevention strategy regarding these types of infections. Material and methods. Agar well diffusion method was performed for antimicrobial evaluation, LCMS technique used for identification of different compounds, molecular docking performed by application of iGEMDOCK for PBP2a and ERM to plant compounds, and its pharmacokinetic evaluation of ADMET through use of AdmetSAR. Results. Water extract was the most effective against resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Twenty compounds belonging to phenols, flavonoids, organic acids, terpenoids groups were reported. Eighteen plant compounds passed in Lipinski's rule of five. iGEMDOCK revealed diferulic acid has the least binding energy -102.37 kcal/mole to penicillin-binding protein 2a and taxifolin has the least binding energy of -103.12 kcal/mole to erythromycin ribosomal methylase in comparison to control linezolid. These compounds raise the potential for developing potent inhibitors of penicillin-binding protein 2a and erythromycin ribosomal methylase for drug development. ADMET properties revealed that eighteen studied compounds were found in category III and IV with non-toxic properties except two butin and taxifolin found in category II with toxic properties. Conclusions. It can be concluded that diferulic acid and taxifolin compounds provide the best inhibitor effect to PBP2a and ERM protein for inhibition of MRSA and MLSB resistant strains of S. aureus through the application of molecular docking, leading to a lead drug candidate for the treatment of diseases.

Opis:
W pracy określono wpływ skrobi opornej na strawność in vivo w badaniach na szczurach outbredowych Wistar. W doświadczeniu wykorzystano 40 samców w wieku 12 tygodni. Zwierzęta karmiono czterema rodzajami diet: kontrolną ze wstępnie kleikowaną skrobią ziemniaczaną suszona na walcach (SW), oraz trzema z dodatkiem różnych preparatów modyfikowanych skrobi opornych (AO, WT, RS). Wykonano oznaczenia parametrów ogólno żywieniowych i wzrostowych oraz oznaczono strawność in vivo metodą klasyczną. Wykazano, że 50% dodatek preparatów opornych na enzymy amylolityczne skrobi modyfikowanych do diet szczurów rasy Wistar spowodował zwiększenie zawartości wody w kale, co świadczy o zdolności tychże preparatów do wiązania wody, a co za tym idzie przyspieszonego pasażu treści pokarmowej czego wynikiem jest jego potencjalne działanie dietetyczne. Oznaczona metodą bilansową strawność diety i jej głównych składników, tzn. białka, tłuszczu oraz węglowodanów (skrobi) była nieznacznie zróżnicowana pomiędzy badanymi grupami. Najniższą strawność in vivo odnotowano w przypadku handlowego preparatu RS3.
The objective of the paper was to assess the effect of RS modified starch on in vivo digestibility in Wistar rats. In the experiment, 40 12-week-old rats were used. Animals were fed 4 different diets: control pregelatinised potato starch and 3 diets with resistant starches (AO, WT, RS). Determination of nutritional and growth parameters have been carried out. The in vivo digestibility determined by standard method was made as well. It was found that 50% addition of starch preparations resistant to amylolitycal enzymes to the diet increased the water content in fecal. It proves that RS preparations are able to bind water and accelerate the feed passage. Digestibility and protein, fat and sugars content measured by balance method were hardly distinguishable between analyzed diets. The preparation marked RS-3 showed the lowest digestibility.
