Vida Ăștil de los aceites de cactus marroquĂ (Opuntia ficus-indica) y de argĂĄn (Argania spinosa). Estudio comparativo
Cactus seed oil is gaining considerable popularity in the cosmetic industry. To estimate cactus seed oilâ industrial as well as domestic ease of use, we investigated the oxidative stability of Moroccan cactus seed oil under accelerated aging conditions. In addition, we compared cactus seed oil stability to that of argan oil, a popular and well-established cosmetic oil, under the same conditions. Cactus seed oil is much more sensitive to oxidation than argan oil. Its shelf-life can be estimated to be no longer than 6 months at room temperature. Such instability means that the preparation process for cactus oil must be carried out with great care and cactus seed oil needs to be protected once extracted.El aceite de semillas de cactus estĂĄ ganando considerable popularidad en la industria cosmĂ©tica. Para estimar la facilidad de uso industrial y domĂ©stico del aceite de semilla de cactus, investigamos la estabilidad oxidativa del aceite de semilla de cactus marroquĂ en condiciones de envejecimiento acelerado. AdemĂĄs, comparamos, bajo las mismas condiciones, la estabilidad del aceite de semilla de cactus con la del aceite de argĂĄn, otro aceite cosmĂ©tico popular y bien establecido. El aceite de semilla de cactus es mucho mĂĄs sensible a la oxidaciĂłn que el aceite de argĂĄn. Su vida Ăștil se puede estimar en no mĂĄs de 6 meses a temperatura ambiente. Tal inestabilidad significa que los procesos preparativos del aceite de cactus deben manejarse con mucho cuidado y el aceite de semilla de cactus debe protegerse una vez extraĂdo
Editorsâ Introduction: An Overview of the Educational Administration and Leadership Curriculum: Traditions of Islamic Educational Administration and Leadership in Higher Education
This chapter provides an overview of several topics relevant to constructing an approach to teaching educational administration and leadership in Muslim countries. First, it places the topic in the context of the changing nature and critiques of the field that argue for a greater internationalisation to both resist some of the negative aspects of globalisation and to represent countriesâ traditions in the professional curriculum. Then, it identifies literature that presents the underlying principles and values of Islamic education that guide curriculum and pedagogy and shape its administration and leadership including the Qurâan and Sunnah and the classical educational literature which focuses on aims, values and goals of education as well as character development upon which a âgoodâ society is built. This is followed by a section on the Islamic administration and leadership traditions that are relevant to education, including the values of educational organisations and how they should be administered, identifying literature on the distinctive Islamic traditions of leadership and administrator education and training as it applies to education from the establishment of Islam and early classical scholars and senior administrators in the medieval period who laid a strong foundation for a highly sophisticated preparation and practice of administration in philosophical writings and the Mirrors of Princes writings, and subsequent authors who have built upon it up to the contemporary period. The final section provides an overview of the chapters in this collection

Genomic analysis of a large set of currentlyâand historicallyâimportant human adenovirus pathogens
Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are uniquely important âmodel organismsâ as they have been used to elucidate fundamental biological processes, are recognized as complex pathogens, and are used as remedies for human health. As pathogens, HAdVs may effect asymptomatic or mild and severe symptomatic disease upon their infection of respiratory, ocular, gastrointestinal, and genitourinary systems. High-resolution genomic data have enhanced the understanding of HAdV epidemiology, with recombination recognized as an important and major pathway in the molecular evolution and genesis of emergent HAdV pathogens. To support this view and to actualize an algorithm for identifying, characterizing, and typing novel HAdVs, we determined the DNA sequence of 95 isolates from archives containing historically important pathogens and collections housing currently circulating strains to be sequenced. Of the 85 samples that were completely sequenced, 18 novel recombinants within species HAdV-B and D were identified. Two HAdV-D genomes were found to contain novel penton base and fiber genes with significant divergence from known molecular types. In this data set, we found additional isolates of HAdV-D53 and HAdV-D58, two novel genotypes recognized recently using genomics. This supports the thesis that novel HAdV genotypes are not limited to âone-timeâ appearances of the prototype but are of importance in HAdV epidemiology. These data underscore the significance of lateral genomic transfer in HAdV evolution and reinforce the potential public health impact of novel genotypes of HAdVs emerging in the population

SIFAT MEKANIS DAN TEGANGAN DASAR 13 JENIS KAYU KALIMANTAN TIMUR
The green ultimate stress values of 13 Indonesia timbers from East Kalimantan are presented in this paper using the _ASTM D 145 - 70 test method. The result indicates a high coefficient of variation (53%) for work to proportional limit (Gonystylus bancanus), while the lowest recorded is 5,5% for compression perpendicular to the grain (Shorea ovalis). An estimate _of the dry ultimate stress (table 2), green basic stress (table 3) and dry basic stress (table 4) are attempted using regression equations
