Kinship Terms Used by Strangers Towards Two Offsprings of Inter-ethnic Married Couples in Surabaya

This research investigates the kinship terms produced by strangers towards two young offsprings of inter-ethnic married couples who were used as enticements to generate the production along with the social factors. The data taken from both natural conversations and informal conversational interviews were analyzed using the theories of address Indonesian in Indonesian (John & Stokes, 1977), Javanese (Kuntjara, 2001), Dutch (Matres & Sekel, 2007), and those produced by Chinese-Indonesian (Kuntjara, 2009) and social factors proposed by Holmes (1992) and Wardhaugh (2006). The findings resulted in the mixture of kinship terms from Indonesian, Javanese, Chinese, Dutch, and zero address term which were addressed by strangers to M and F. In addition, addressors mostly considered their own aspects, ethnicity, setting, transactional status and function, and prior knowledge and personal preference as the decisive factors when choosing kinship terms. While the addressee's aspects, physical features and visible appearance, were the minor factors they took into account

Second, barriers faced by Civil Servant Investigators Great Hall of the Food and Drug Administration Pekanbaru is influenced by several factors such as law, law enforcement officers factors, factors and factors humans. infrastructure, efforts in overcoming the barriers that do Servant Investigators civil Hall of the Food and Drug Administration Pekanbaru is to add members investigator, enhance the effectiveness of HR in the organization, increasing cooperation with the police, increase the budget for the purpose of investigation and to disseminate to the public. Suggestions author of the issues examined are the First, that Civil Servant Investigators Great Hall of the Food and Drug Administration Pekanbaru can play its role to the fullest. Secondly, in order that Civil Servant Investigators Great Hall Pekanbaru Food and Drug Administration to coordinate with the police, businesses and people in the discipline circulation wet yellow noodles containing berbahaya. Thirdsubstances, are not expected to increase the number of personnel investigator and increase the budget for the purpose of investigation

Ekstraksi Dan Seleksi Fitur Untuk Klasifikasi Sel Epitel Dengan Sel Radang Pada Citra Pap Smear

Penelitian ini dilakukan seleksi fitur menggunakan Fisher Criterion, sedangkan pada proses klasifikasi data menggunakan algoritma Backpropagation terhadap 16 fitur yang terlebih dahulu diekstrak dari citra Pap smear. Adapun ke-16 fitur yang digunakan dibagi menjadi 3 kategori, yaitu: Fitur bentuk, Fitur tekstur, dan Fitur intensitas warna. Pada naskah ini terdapat 2 tahap utama, yaitu: 1) Ekstraksi Fitur; dan 2) Seleksi Fitur. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis kinerja seleksi fitur pada klasifikasi data dan mencari fitur yang secara signifikan mempengaruhi klasifikasi sel epitel dengan sel radang. Sebagai pembanding, penelitian ini juga membandingkan hasil seleksi fitur antara Fisher Criterion dangan Feature Subset Selection. Hasil yang diperoleh dari proses perbandingan tersebut menunjukkan kesamaan fitur yang secara signifikan mempengaruhi proses klasifikasi sel radang dengan sel epitel. Tingkat akurasi klasifikasi pada penelitian ini adalah 92.5%

The Effects of Tert-butyl Hydroquinone (TBHQ) on Estrogen Receptor Alpha (ERα) and Tumor Suppressor Protein p53 in T-47D and MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cell Lines

Tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) is an aromatic compound that is commonly used as a preservative in processed food to prevent rancidity and lengthen shelf life. TBHQ is known to act as an antioxidant by protecting cells from radical oxygen species and thus preventing DNA damage. Although previous studies have found TBHQ to cause cancer cell death at high concentrations, they have also contrastingly found TBHQ, when studied in animal models, to enhance carcinogenic effects. However, the effect of TBHQ on breast cancer has not been thoroughly explored. With the prevalence of breast cancer and the wide use of TBHQ in processed food items, it is imperative that we explore their possible relationship. This study examined the effects of TBHQ, alone and in combination with hormones and anti-hormones, on ERα and p53 expression in both MCF-7 and T-47D breast cancer cell lines. To ensure treatment conditions without the presence of endogenous steroids or growth factors, the cells were cultured with a 5% charcoal-stripped fetal bovine serum (FBS) for six days. Western blot analysis revealed alterations in the expression of ERα and p53 protein levels after 24 hours of treatment with varying concentrations of TBHQ (0.005 to 1 mM). A concentration-dependent decrease of ERα protein levels was observed in both cell lines, with a 49% reduction occurring with 100 µM TBHQ as compared to the control. P53 levels portray a continued increase of expression through concentrations of TBHQ (0.005 to 1 mM), found similarly in both cell lines. To gain further insight into possible similarities between BPS and other known effectors of ERα, the optimal concentration of TBHQ (100 μM) was used in combination with hormones and anti-hormones. Down-regulation of ERα protein levels was observed after 24-hour co-treatment of T-47D & MCF-7 cells with a combination of TBHQ and E2. Antiestrogen ICI with TBHQ showed a significant down-regulation as compared to TBHQ alone, and TBHQ with TAM portrayed no significant differences. A similar trend in the effects on p53 expression was depicted in T-47D and MCF-7 cells. Image cytometric analysis with propidium iodide staining was utilized to quantify cell values and viability changes to further portray the effects of TBHQ on T-47D and MCF-7 cellular growth. The viability assay shows a biphasic effect with increasing concentrations of TBHQ, with a maximum decrease in proliferation seen at a concentration of 100 uM TBHQ. TBHQ alone and in combination with E2 and antiestrogens showed a decreased proliferation compared to the control in T-47D cells. However, cytolocalization of ERα upon treatment with estradiol and TBHQ remained unaltered. Our studies offer a unique perspective on the effects of TBHQ on two different breast cancer cell lines and provide valuable insight for further exploration of the mechanism of action of TBHQ on tumor suppressor proteins and steroid receptors

On the existence of internal modes of sine-Gordon kinks

We study whether or not sine-Gordon kinks exhibit internal modes or ``quasimodes.'' By considering the response of the kinks to ac forces and initial distortions, we show that neither intrinsic internal modes nor ``quasimodes'' exist in contrast to previous reports. However, we do identify a different kind of internal mode bifurcating from the bottom edge of the phonon band which arises from the discretization of the system in the numerical simulations, thus confirming recent predictions.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, REVTeX, to appear as a Rapid Communication in Phys Rev E (July 1st
