FAKE NEWS DETECTION ABOUT SARS-COV-2 PANDEMIC USING NEUTRAL NETWORKS AND DETECTION ALGORITHMS

Fake news has an extremely high impact on society, spreading quite simple and fast through social media, TV, internet, press, and other means of communication. The false news about the new coronavirus is blocked by the authorities, according to the decree for establishing a state of emergency. The misinformation of the population and the placement of fake news is two inevitable consequences in times of crisis, these being amplified by two other elements, which feed each other: fear of illness, which can cause deaths, but also uncertainty or lack of information on how to manage the crisis and what is involved.  The need to stop the spreading of fake news, it's paramount and this paper proposes to recognizing truthful information from false information during the pandemic COVID-19 through a guide learning method. This guide implies a model for distinguishing false messages in the online environment, such as Machine Learning algorithms, which can have an accuracy of over 95%

The Way of Public Institutions to Accrual Accounting – case study Romania

The present research aims to investigate the manner in which the public sector accounting under transition from cash to accrual base can be accompanied by legislative stability and coherence, using the example of Romanian public sector. The importance of a clear and concise change process is one of the reasons for the research of this issue. Another reason was the lack of similar studies. The present study covers aspects that were not dealt with by the specialized literature and whose relevance for the European, mainly East European, public sector is highly significant. By advancing and testing five hypotheses where build up the conclusion about the selected research subject. The general and punctual topics that have a significant impact on the outlining of the accounting system typical for the Romanian public institutions were identified among the many normative documents of the period. It appears as a novelty the using of content analysis in the topic of interdependence between the development of the legislative system and the transition process from cash to accrual accounting system in the public sector. The impact of the research findings may be broadened to encompass other sectors as well, thus providing a general outline of the trend followed by the Romanian legislative framework

Contributions to the Knowledge of Microbiological Quality of Pasteurized Melange Produced in Romania

Today's consumers show an affinity for quality products produced under production conditions that strictly observes the principles of food safety. Bacterial contamination of eggs and egg products can thus be a source of disease for the human consumer with the necessary effects on the sector of activity.The term "egg products" defines the components of the egg (separate or as a mixture-melange) released from their shell and submitted to a heat treatment, they are forming foods rich in protein, vitamins and trace elements of high quality . The purpose of this study was to establishing and monitoring the microbiological indicators of melange produced in our country. The study was carried out on the pasteurized egg mix, packaged "bag-in-box" (5 units package), and stored for a period of 25 days at the temperature recommended by the manufacturer (0 ... + 4 °C). The actual analysis is to determine NTGMA, Enterobacter spp., Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., and Salmonella spp. Regarding developments of NTGMA in pasteurized melange stored for 25 days, our data showed an increase of 75.22% compared to the situation found on fresh product (3.656 log cfu/ml vs 6.406 log cfu/ml). The situation was similar for Enterobacter spp. (119.64% increase), Bacillus spp. (76.27% increase) and Pseudomonas spp. (58.72% increase). Salmonella spp. was not identified in the product tested by us. The heat treatment of pasteurized liquid melange does not destroy completely the initial microbial load, therefore certain precautions are needed to store these foods

RESEARCHES CONCERNING IMPROVING METHODS OF IN VITRO MICROTUBERS PRODUCTION

Five genotypes of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) were induced to form microtubers under two in vitro culture conditions (continuos darkness and light). Cultures maintained under continuos darkness (with a temperatue of 170C) had a higher yield with a greater number of microtuber (1.394/plantlet) than those maintained under long days (16 h of light/day) combined with temperature of 200C. In the last case the microtubers were higher, with with the highest average weight of 0.602 g. Three phytohormones it was used: coumarine, benzylaminopurine and salicylic acid. Regarding the average number of microtubers obtained when it was used coumarine and salicylic acid, the highest average number of microtubers was recorded (1,135 microtubers/plantlet).  The study had been performed also on two fractions of the of sugar quantity (80 and 140 g/l), but they had less influence compared to the varieties

Efficient removal of methylene blue from colored wastewater using magnetite/carbon nanocomposite

In this work, a new nanocomposite based on activated carbon and magnetite (PM) was synthesized and characterized by the most indicated and modern methods. The obtained magnetite/carbon nanocomposite was tested as adsorbent for the removal of Methylene Blue (MB) from colored wastewater. In ortder to elucidate the adsorption mechanism, kinetic and thermodynamic studies were carried out. The high adsorption capacity of the synthesized nanocomposite was highlighted by regeneration and reuse studies in consecutive adsorption/desorption cycles

Performance management and Balanced Scorecard – a link for public sector

This paper aims to identify and quantify different means of improving performance management in the public sector by examining the reporting practices of local governments. It emphasizes the public interest in reporting and the need to provide relevant and meaningful information to stakeholders. For this purpose, the research methodology uses the accountability disclosure framework combined with the Balanced Scorecard structure to assess the quality of online reporting, throughout an index designed by accessing the different sections of websites and the annual reports. A linear regression analysis was performed, searching for a relationship between the accountability index developed and various external factors. The empirical results show medium disclosure levels among local government websites, the scores reached exposing considerable fluctuation in the quality of disclosure. Also, we confirm that good practices of higher online transparency could improve administrative efficiency, increase trust in local government, and ultimately promote democratic governance. This paper has a high level of originality by proving a model of disclosure for increasing performance reporting of local governments to meet the need for greater accountability, thus being a support for improvements of digital transparency

A Review of Fatty Acid and Amino Acids Profile from Pasteurized Egg Liquids Produced in Romania

Egg is a rich source of nutrients, such as high-quality protein (containing the ideal proportion of amino acids necessary for human body development) and a rich variety of vitamins and minerals. Liquid egg products have grown to a large extent in the food industry and beyond, which is an important reason to know their quality. For the analysis was used fresh pasteurized yolk and white wrapped bag in box. The fatty acids were determined by gas chromatographic method and amino acids by high performance liquid chromatography method. The results indicated that 34% of total fatty acids analyzed are saturated fatty acids, the main constituent being palmitic acid (25%) and 66% are unsaturated acids and the main constituent is oleic acid (37%). The rate of essential amino acids which are in pasteurized liquid white represents 46% from total analyzed amino acids and in the case of yolk the share is 44%. From obtained data for fatty acids content our limits are higher for polyunsaturated acids than those indicated by other researchers, and for monounsaturated acids are lower than data obtain by other authors. Regarding the essential amino acids content, the obtained data have higher values than the ones obtain by other authors. A possible explanation for the fluctuations in the profile of fatty acids and amino acids could be the feed distributed to the birds from which the eggs are obtained
