Augmented Reality Smart Glasses (ARSG) visitor adoption in cultural tourism
A number of organizations in cultural tourism have started to explore the use of augmented reality (AR) to enhance visitor experience. While many studies have been conducted to identify adoption criteria of mobile AR applications, research exploring the adoption of augmented reality smart glasses (ARSG) is still limited. This paper contributes to the technology adoption literature by investigating attributes of visitor adoption of ARSG in cultural tourism. Twenty-eight interviews were conducted with visitors to a UK art gallery, where they experienced an ARSG application. Findings inform an ARSG adoption framework that integrates societal impact, perceived benefits, perceived attributes of innovation, and visitor resistance as the main themes of ARSG adoption in cultural tourism
Determinazione della carica di CMV in campioni di sangue essiccato su carta da filtro (DBS)
Introduzione. Un\u2019elevata carica virale in urine o sangue di neonati con infezione congenita da Cytomegalovirus (CMV) potrebbe rappresentare un marcatore di prognosi sfavorevole. Diversi studi hanno evidenziato i numerosi vantaggi legati all\u2019impiego del sangue essiccato su Guthrie card (DBS). Pertanto sarebbe molto utile determinare la carica di CMV-DNA in questo tipo di campione, raccolto routinariamente alla nascita.
L\u2019obiettivo di questo lavoro preliminare \ue8 stato verificare la correlazione tra le cariche rilevate nel sangue fresco (SF) e nei corrispondenti DBS.
Metodi. Sono stati esaminati 69 campioni di SF e DBS, appartenenti a soggetti con infezione da CMV, risultati positivi per CMV-DNA in nested-PCR. Il DNA virale \ue8 stato estratto con colonne di affinit\ue0 (QIAGEN) e quantificato mediante Real-time PCR commerciale (Nanogen).
Risultati. La PCR quantitativa ha dato esito positivo in 64 campioni di SF ed in soli 25 DBS. La carica nei DBS (mediana: 1,09x103 copie/ml) \ue8 risultata significativamente inferiore (p<0,05) a quella del SF corrispondente (1,67x104 copie/ml).
Anche le mediane delle cariche virali del SF dal quale sono stati ottenuti i 39 DBS negativi ed i 25 positivi (1,10x103 vs 1,67x104 copie/ml) sono risultate significativamente diverse.
Conclusioni. I risultati ottenuti non solo hanno evidenziato una riduzione della quantit\ue0 di CMV-DNA tra SF e corrispondente DBS pari a circa 1 log, presumibilmente dovuta alla minore quantit\ue0 di sangue esaminato, ma anche una minore sensibilit\ue0 del sistema. Essendo l\u2019alta carica virale indice di insorgenza di sequele nei neonati congenitamente infetti, riteniamo che il metodo proposto consenta comunque di individuare i soggetti da monitorare in quanto maggiormente a rischio di complicanze tardive.
Il nostro gruppo sta gi\ue0 applicando tale metodica a DBS di neonati con infezione congenita dei quali \ue8 possibile reperire le informazioni relative alla sintomatologia alla nascita ed al follow-up
Keragaman dan Potensi Makrofungi di Obyek Ekowisata Kaki Dian, Gunung Klabat-Minahasa Utara
Keanekaragaman makrofungi sangat menarik untuk diamati, sayangnya informasi keragaman makrofungi di wilayah Wallacea sangat terbatas. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui keragaman makrofungi dan potensi peluang penggunaannya di kawasan ekowisata Kaki Dian Gunung Klabat, Minahasa Utara. Kawasan ekowisata Kaki Dian Gunung Klabat lebih
dipilih karena memiliki keanekaragaman hayati khas bioregion Wallacea dan memiliki banyak pengunjung yang datang untuk menikmati pemandangan alam. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksplorasi di sepanjang jalur pendakiandi kawasan ekowisata Kaki Dian, Utara Minahasa, Sulawesi Utara. Pengamatan dan identifikasi dilakukan berdasarkan karakteristik macrofungi antara lain: warna, diameter, bentuk tudung, bentuk batang, panjang dan diameter batang, ada tidaknya lamella atau pori dan cincin, jenis lamella dan jenis volva, serta habitat dan potensi pemanfaatannya. Data dianalisis secara deskriptifkualitatif. Sebanyak 61 spesies jamur makroskopik yang termasuk ke dalam pembagian ascomycota dan basidiomycota. Spesies ini termasuk dalam 23 famili, 7 ordo. Berdasarkan tempat tumbuh, 92% ditemukan tumbuh pada kayu yang membusuk dan 8% ditemukan tumbuh di tanah atau sarasah. Berdasarkan potensi penggunaannya, 3 jenis memiliki potensi industri, 10 jenis diidentifikasi sebagai jamur pangan dan 11 jenis diidentifikasi sebagai jamur berpotensi obat

Brain indices of disagreement with one's social values predict EU referendum voting behavior
Pre-electoral surveys typically attempt, and sometimes fail, to predict voting behavior on the basis of explicit measures of agreement or disagreement with a candidate or political position. Here, we assessed whether a specific brain signature of disagreement with one's social values, the event-related potential component N400, could be predictive of voting behavior. We examined this possibility in the context of the EU referendum in the United Kingdom. In the five weeks preceding the referendum, we recorded the N400 while participants with different vote intentions expressed their agreement or disagreement with pro- and against-EU statements. We showed that the N400 responded to statements incongruent with one's view regarding the EU. Crucially, this effect predicted actual voting behavior in decided as well as undecided voters. The N400 was a better predictor of voting choice than an explicit index of preference based on the behavioral responses. Our findings demonstrate that well-defined patterns of brain activity can forecast future voting behavior

Opportunities and challenges for an Indonesian forest monitoring network
© 2019, INRA and Springer-Verlag France SAS, part of Springer Nature. Key message: Permanent sampling plots (PSPs) are a powerful and reliable methodology to help our understanding of the diversity and dynamics of tropical forests. Based on the current inventory of PSPs in Indonesia, there is high potential to establish a long-term collaborative forest monitoring network. Whilst there are challenges to initiating such a network, there are also innumerable benefits to help us understand and better conserve these exceptionally diverse ecosystems
