DETERMINATION OF HYDRO-ECOLOGICAL FACTORS OF THE VOLGA-CASPIAN AQUATIC ECOSYSTEMS STABILITY IN DESIGNING THEIR PROTECTION

This paper discusses possible consequences of changes in the Volga-Caspian aquatic ecosystems resulting from climate change according to the data scenarios of the Worldwide Meteorological Organization. Main hydro-ecological factors of stability of the Northern Caspian Sea ecosystems have been determined. It appears that ecosystem stability in the Northern Caspian Sea is primarily affected by natural conditions. It is essential to model riparian ecosystem processes and winter regime of reservoirs to develop strategies for mitigation of negative impacts of climate change. Such measures may include improvement of existing dams in the Volga region

Neuromarketing Research On Consumers' Visual Perception of Cryptomarking a Product Package

  This article discusses the possibility of using information technology in product marking. In order to effectively inform consumers about the product and its ingredients on the basis of cryptographic protection of a two-dimensional bar code (QR code), it is necessary to conduct preliminary neurophysiological analysis. Therefore, the aim of the research was to analyze and evaluate consumers' visual perception of a cryptographic marking in order to best position a QR code on a product package. A comprehensive neuromarketing experiment had been carried out to study the visual attention and interest in cryptographic marking on a soft milk package. The oculomotor behaviors of 28 testees were recorded as an array of 395 data sets. Two groups of testees aged from 18 to 50 were involved in the experiment. The results were processed by using economic-mathematical and statistical analysis methods that are implemented in the SPSS environment. Having the results of the processed data summarized, the best QR code positioning spots on a soft milk package have been found. The revealed positioning areas were proved to be the best by the objective neurophysiological parameters of the testees' visual perception of the milk test packages. Cryptomarking had been done on the selected areas on experimental materials and then tested in the control group concerning the testees' attention. The areas of interest and memorability of milk brands were distinguished as well. The obtained results can be used as a practical tool for managing the consumer's attention when choosing milk. The further studies will be related to the research of the visual visibility of a cryptomarking in foveal and peripheral eyesight which will make it possible to understand the consumer's situational behavior in the decision-making process

Molecular mechanisms of corpus callosum development: a four-step journey

The Corpus Callosum (CC) is a bundle of axons connecting the cerebral hemispheres. It is the most recent structure to have appeared during evolution of placental mammals. Its development is controlled by a very complex interplay of many molecules. In humans it contains almost 80% of all commissural axons in the brain. The formation of the CC can be divided into four main stages, each controlled by numerous intracellular and extracellular molecular factors. First, a newborn neuron has to specify an axon, leave proliferative compartments, the Ventricular Zone (VZ) and Subventricular Zone (SVZ), migrate through the Intermediate Zone (IZ), and then settle at the Cortical Plate (CP). During the second stage, callosal axons navigate toward the midline within a compact bundle. Next stage is the midline crossing into contralateral hemisphere. The last step is targeting a defined area and synapse formation. This review provides an insight into these four phases of callosal axons development, as well as a description of the main molecular players involved

A global look at time: a 24-country study of the equivalence of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory

In this article, we assess the structural equivalence of the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory (ZTPI) across 26 samples from 24 countries (N = 12,200). The ZTPI is proven to be a valid and reliable index of individual differences in time perspective across five temporal categories: Past Negative, Past Positive, Present Fatalistic, Present Hedonistic, and Future. We obtained evidence for invariance of 36 items (out of 56) and also the five-factor structure of ZTPI across 23 countries. The short ZTPI scales are reliable for country-level analysis, whereas we recommend the use of the full scales for individual-level analysis. The short version of ZTPI will further promote integration of research in the time perspective domain in relation to many different psycho-social processes

Finishing the euchromatic sequence of the human genome

The sequence of the human genome encodes the genetic instructions for human physiology, as well as rich information about human evolution. In 2001, the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium reported a draft sequence of the euchromatic portion of the human genome. Since then, the international collaboration has worked to convert this draft into a genome sequence with high accuracy and nearly complete coverage. Here, we report the result of this finishing process. The current genome sequence (Build 35) contains 2.85 billion nucleotides interrupted by only 341 gaps. It covers ∼99% of the euchromatic genome and is accurate to an error rate of ∼1 event per 100,000 bases. Many of the remaining euchromatic gaps are associated with segmental duplications and will require focused work with new methods. The near-complete sequence, the first for a vertebrate, greatly improves the precision of biological analyses of the human genome including studies of gene number, birth and death. Notably, the human enome seems to encode only 20,000-25,000 protein-coding genes. The genome sequence reported here should serve as a firm foundation for biomedical research in the decades ahead

Magnesia cement in the MgO-CO2-H2O system

A detailed study of the MgO-CO2-H2O system allows creating new inorganic binders. The present research is focused on the process of structure formation during hydration and curing of magnesia composition from active magnesium oxide and magnesium bicarbonate solution. Magnesium hydroxide and magnesium hydrocarbonates, basically hydromagnesite and dypingite are the products of MgO interaction with solution of magnesium bicarbonate Mg(HCO3)2. This was established by means of complex thermal analysis using thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), mass spectrometry (MS), and electron microscopy. These methods allowed us to define the influence of the curing environment of magnesia composition. Results show that processes of hydration and curing of composition of magnesium oxide with magnesium bicarbonate solution proceed most effectively in water conditions at the course of cyclic reactions of magnesium hydrocarbonate formation. The magnesia composition transforms magnesia cement into the state of hydraulic magnesia cement
