Identifying Stakeholders’ Role in Waste Management in the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang City

This is a study to identify the role of stakeholders in waste management in the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city conducted by M.N.B.C. Neolaka; A. O. Ena Mau and A. Fallo. The purpose of this study is to (1) identify the stakeholders in waste management in the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city; (2) identify and explain the role of stakeholders in waste management in the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city; (3) describe and analyze the supporting and inhibiting aspects of the stakeholders' role in waste management in the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city. The approach used in this study was qualitative, whose type of research is a case study; it was a case relating to the role of stakeholders that have been identified in waste management. Research conducted at the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city, and in six sub-districts in Kupang city focusing on the role of the government, which in this case, the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city in dealing with the waste problem. It also discussed the role of the community and organizations concerning the waste problem in the city of Kupang.The results revealed that the Sanitation and Environment Agency of Kupang city played a role in waste management: planning, implementing, and supervising. Other stakeholders having a role in waste management in Kupang City were the Urban Village apparatus, neighborhood and community association (Indonesian: Rukun Tetangga or RT and Rukun Warga or RW), Sanitation Officers (collectors, transporters, and waste sorters from waste temporary disposal site (Indonesian: Tempat Pembuangan Sementara or TPS) to waste final disposal site (Indonesian: Tempat Pembuangan Akhir or TPA), stakeholders from the Community Element (households, community groups, students groups, scavengers, collectors, as well as small and medium enterprises), and private parties (managers of tourist attractions and companies).

An eco-compatible process for the depuration of wastewater from olive mill industry

Olive mill wastewater (OMW) is the by-product of olive oil industrial production. It is characterized by a dark brownish color and a strong odor and is considered one of the most polluted agricultural wastes. In this paper we briefly describe an innovative procedure for the depuration of olive mill wastewater. With this procedure it is also possible to recover valuable substances such as phenolic compounds which have important commercial applications: they can be used in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and as antiviral, antioxidant and antitumor agents. The proposed OMW treatment uses two different packed vegetable matrices which remove most of the pollutant substances by absorption. After filtration of OMW on the matrices the pollutant load of the waste is greatly reduced: the organic content (COD) is reduced more than 80% and the phenol compounds are completely removed

Tindak Tutur Deklarasi Bahasa Minangkabau Pedagang Kakilima Di Pasaraya Padang

The purpose to the research are described the speech act and to describe the strategy of speech act who use by a pavament seller on transaction in Pasar Raya Padang. The data of the research is speech act that used by the pavemant seller. On the research the writer choose the oral data as the primary source, with direct speech by informan as native speaker. The writer collected data with simak libat cakap methode and technique record. On the research, writer found several problem. First the writer found four kind of declaration of speech act who use by the seller on the transaction; (a) decision speech act, (b) canceled speech act, (c) forbid speech act, (d) permission speech act. Second, there is three strategies that use by seller; (a) the strategy of directspeech act without politeness, (b) the strategy of direct speech act with possitive politeness, (c) the startegy of direch speech act with negative politeness

One is Not Enough: Multiple Exemplars Facilitate Infants' Generalizations of Novel Properties

Across three experiments, we examined 9- and 11-month-olds’ mappings of novel sound properties to novel animal categories. Infants were familiarized with novel animal–novel sound pairings (e.g., Animal A [red]–Sound 1) and then tested on: (1) their acquisition of the original pairing and (2) their gen- eralization of the sound property to a new member of a familiarized cate- gory (e.g., Animal A [blue]–Sound 1). When familiarized with a single exemplar of a category, 11-month-olds showed no evidence of acquiring or generalizing the animal–sound pairings. In contrast, 11-month-olds learnt the original animal–sound mappings and generalized the sound property to a novel member of that category when familiarized with multiple exemplars of a category. Finally, when familiarized with multiple exemplars, 9-month- old infants learnt the original animal–sound pairing, but did not extend the novel sound property. The results of these experiments provide evidence for developmental differences in the facilitative role of multiple exemplars in promoting the learning and generalization of information

Defining the molecular role of gp91phox in the immune manifestation of acute allergic asthma using a preclinical murine model

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Objective</p> <p>The phenomena manifested during inflammation require interplay between circulating effector cells, local resident cells, soluble mediators and genetic host factors to establish, develop and maintain itself. Of the molecues involed in the initiation and perpetuation of acute allergic inflammation in asthma, the involvement of effector cells in redox reactions for producing O₂^-(superoxide anion) through the mediation of NADPH oxidase is a critical step. Prior data suggest that reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidase homologues in non-phagocytic cells play an important role in the regulation of signal transduction, while macrophages use a membrane-associated NADPH oxidase to generate an array of oxidizing intermediates which inactivate MMPs on or near them.</p> <p>Materials and Methods and Treatment</p> <p>To clarify the role of gp91phox subunit of NADPH oxidase in the development and progression of an acute allergic asthma phenotype, we induced allergen dependent inflammation in a gp91<it>^phox</it>-/- single knockout and a gp91phox-/-MMP-12-/- double knockout mouse models.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>In the knockout mice, both inflammation and airway hyperreactivity were more extensive than in wildtype mice post-OVA. Although OVA-specific IgE in plasma were comparable in wildtype and knockout mice, enhanced inflammatory cell recruitment from circulation and cytokine release in lung and BALf, accompanied by higher airway resistance as well as Penh in response to methacholine, indicate a regulatory role for NADPH oxidase in development of allergic asthma. While T cell mediated functions like Th2 cytokine secretion, and proliferation to OVA were upregulated synchronous with the overall robustness of the asthma phenotype, macrophage upregulation in functions such as proliferation, and mixed lymphocyte reaction indicate a regulatory role for gp91phox and an overall non-involvement or synergistic involvement of MMP12 in the response pathway (comparing data from gp91phox-/- and gp91phox-/-MMP-12-/- mice).</p
