Efficient Removal of Tetracycline and Bisphenol A from Water with a New Hybrid Clay/TiO2 Composite
(2023)
New TiO2 hybrid composites were prepared fromkaolinclay, predried and carbonized biomass, and titanium tetraisopropoxideand explored for tetracycline (TET) and bisphenol A (BPA) removalfrom water. Overall, the removal rate is 84% for TET and 51% for BPA.The maximum adsorption capacities (q (m))are 30 and 23 mg/g for TET and BPA, respectively. These capacitiesare far greater than those obtained for unmodified TiO2. Increasing the ionic strength of the solution does not change theadsorption capacity of the adsorbent. pH changes only slightly changeBPA adsorption, while a pH > 7 significantly reduces the adsorptionof TET on the material. The Brouers-Sotolongo fractal modelbest describes the kinetic data for both TET and BPA adsorption, predictingthat the adsorption process occurs via a complex mechanism involvingvarious forces of attraction. Temkin and Freundlich isotherms, whichbest fit the equilibrium adsorption data for TET and BPA, respectively,suggest that adsorption sites are heterogeneous in nature. Overall,the composite materials are much more effective for TET removal fromaqueous solution than for BPA. This phenomenon is assigned to a differencein the TET/adsorbent interactions vs the BPA/adsorbent interactions:the decisive factor appears to be favorable electrostatic interactionsfor TET yielding a more effective TET removal.
The CH2Cl2/MeOH (1:1) extract of Zanthoxylum holstzianum stem bark showed good antiplasmodial activity (IC50 2.5 +/- 0.3 and 2.6 +/- 0.3 mu g/mL against the W2 and D6 strains of Plasmodium falciparum, respectively). From the extract five benzophenanthridine alkaloids [8-acetonyldihydrochelerythrine (1), nitidine (2), dihydrochelerythine (3), norchelerythrine (5), arnottianamide (8)]; a 2-quinolone alkaloid [N-methylflindersine (4)]; a lignan [4,4 '-dihydroxy-3,3 '-dimethoxylignan-9,9 '-diyl diacetate (7)] and a dimer of a benzophenanthridine and 2-quinoline [holstzianoquinoline (6)] were isolated. The CH2Cl2/MeOH (1:1) extract of the root bark afforded 1, 3-6, 8, chelerythridimerine (9) and 9-demethyloxychelerythrine (10). Holstzianoquinoline (6) is new, and is the second dimer linked by a C-C bond of a benzophenanthridine and a 2-quinoline reported thus far. The compounds were identified based on spectroscopic evidence. Amongst five compounds (1-5) tested against two strains of P. falciparum, nitidine (IC50 0.11 +/- 0.01 mu g/mL against W2 and D6 strains) and norchelerythrine (IC50 value of 0.15 +/- 0.01 mu g/mL against D6 strain) were the most active.
Sich mit dem eigenen Denken und Handeln reflexiv auseinanderzusetzen ist ein zentrales Element im Selbstreifungsprozess von Lehrkräften im Studium, über die Ausbildung bis hin zur Lehrer:innentätigkeit im Alltag. Der Workshop ermöglichte Zugänge zur selbstreflexiven Auseinandersetzung mit den eigenen Handlungsmustern mithilfe vom Autor (weiter)entwickelter Coachingtools, die im Rahmen der seminaristischen Lehrer:innenbildung in der zweiten Phase konzipiert und erprobt wurden.
Innovat MOOC
(2023)
The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed the importance for university teachers to have adequate pedagogical and technological competences to cope with the various possible educational scenarios (face-to-face, online, hybrid, etc.), making use of appropriate active learning methodologies and supporting technologies to foster a more effective learning environment. In this context, the InnovaT project has been an important initiative to support the development of pedagogical and technological competences of university teachers in Latin America through several trainings aiming to promote teacher innovation. These trainings combined synchronous online training through webinars and workshops with asynchronous online training through the MOOC “Innovative Teaching in Higher Education.” This MOOC was released twice. The first run took place right during the lockdown of 2020, when Latin American teachers needed urgent training to move to emergency remote teaching overnight. The second run took place in 2022 with the return to face-to-face teaching and the implementation of hybrid educational models. This article shares the results of the design of the MOOC considering the constraints derived from the lockdowns applied in each country, the lessons learned from the delivery of such a MOOC to Latin American university teachers, and the results of the two runs of the MOOC.
Das Spannungsverhältnis zwischen Meinungsfreiheit und allgemeinem Persönlichkeitsrecht hat das Bundesverfassungsgericht seit Jahrzehnten und wiederholt beschäftigt. Insbesondere in den letzten drei Jahren hatte sich das Gericht erneut intensiv damit zu befassen, einen angemessenen Ausgleich zwischen den sich gegenüberstehenden Grundrechtspositionen zu formulieren. Der Beitrag analysiert überblicksartig, inwieweit es in seinen neueren Entscheidungen seine bisherige Rechtsprechung fortgeführt, ergänzt oder gar nachjustiert hat.
Der Text analysiert den Gesetzesentwurf des Kriminalpolitischen Kreises zur Regelung des Notwehrexzesses und des Putativnotwehrexzesses, veröffentlicht unter Hoven/Mitsch in GA 2023, S. 241 ff., ausgehend vom aktuellen Diskussionsstand in Rechtsprechung und Literatur. Im Schwerpunkt widmet er sich dem Anwendungsbereich des Regelungsvorschlags, insbesondere der Reichweite des intensiven Notwehrexzesses, der Erfassung des extensiven Notwehrexzesses sowie den Voraussetzungen eines entschuldigenden Putativnotwehrexzesses. Er beruht auf einem Kommentar, den die Verfasserin im Juni 2023 auf dem Online-Workshop „Ein neues Konzept der Notwehr“ des kriminalpolitischen Kreises gehalten hat. Der Vortragsstil wurde beibehalten.
Animal Welfare Versus Commercial Animal Use. Commercial Use of Animals Outside Agriculture: The forms of commercial animal use beyond agriculture are diverse. This includes, for example, circuses and working with film animals. However, the associated animal welfare problems have so far not been discussed in great detail. The authorities work mainly with non-binding expert opinions instead of legal regulations. The various instruments of the executive branch in this area will be dealt with, as well as possible new perspectives for animal protection law - and its limits.

In a comparison of three human service organisations in which the human body plays a key role, we examine how organisations regulate religious body practices. We concentrate on Muslim norms of dressing and undressing as a potential focal point of cultural and religious diversity. Inspired by Ray’s (2019) idea of racialized organizations, we assume that state-run organizations in Germany are characterized by a strong commitment to religious tolerance and non-discrimination but also marked by anti- Muslim sentiment prevalent among the German population. Our study looks for mechanism that explain how Human Service Organizations accommodate Muslim body practices. It draws on qualitative empirical data collected in state-run hospitals, schools and swimming pools in Germany. Our analyses show that the organizations draw on formal and informal rules at the organizational level to accommodate Islam. We identify five general organizational mechanisms that may hinder Muslim accommodation in human service organizations. In particular, we see a risk of decoupling between the expectation of religious tolerance and processes that lead to informal discrimination, driven mainly by the difficulty of controlling group dynamics among users.
Renewable energy changes the geopolitics of energy: whereas access to fossil fuel resources were key in the past, control over technology and industry will be key in the future. Consequently, different scholars have predicted that a growing focus on renewables will increase or decrease conflict in the energy sector, with no consensus on which is most likely. Here, we investigate the degree of conflict in renewable energy technology (RET) trade by analyzing data on 7041 trade conflicts 1995–2020, guided by two sets of theory-driven hypotheses. We show that RET trade is associated with more, longer, and more intense trade conflicts than other trade conflicts for 1995–2016. This supports the neorealist, geo-economic view of countries being willing to risk conflict to increase their share of a market rather than avoiding conflicts to increase the overall market size. It also contradicts the view that renewables will reduce conflict: at least in the past and regarding trade, it has increased rather than decreased conflict. For 2017–2020, this trend is reversed and RET trade became significantly less conflictive than other trade. Our findings imply that improved conflict-resolution institutions for RET are needed. We also suggest establishing specific institutions to govern trade in immature technologies.
The oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) produces a large amount of oil from the fruit. However, increasing the oil production in this fruit is still challenging. A recent study has shown that starch metabolism is essential for oil synthesis in fruit-producing species. Therefore, the transcriptomic analysis by RNA-seq was performed to observe gene expression alteration related to starch metabolism genes throughout the maturity stages of oil palm fruit with different oil yields. Gene expression profiles were examined with three different oil yields group (low, medium, and high) at six fruit development phases (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 22 weeks after pollination). We successfully identified and analyzed differentially expressed genes in oil palm mesocarps during development. The results showed that the transcriptome profile for each developmental phase was unique. Sucrose flux to the mesocarp tissue, rapid starch turnover, and high glycolytic activity have been identified as critical factors for oil production in oil palms. For starch metabolism and the glycolytic pathway, we identified specific gene expressions of enzyme isoforms (isozymes) that correlated with oil production, which may determine the oil content. This study provides valuable information for creating new high-oil-yielding palm varieties via breeding programs or genome editing approaches.
Droughts in São Paulo
(2023)
Literature has suggested that droughts and societies are mutually shaped and, therefore, both require a better understanding of their coevolution on risk reduction and water adaptation. Although the Sao Paulo Metropolitan Region drew attention because of the 2013-2015 drought, this was not the first event. This paper revisits this event and the 1985-1986 drought to compare the evolution of drought risk management aspects. Documents and hydrological records are analyzed to evaluate the hazard intensity, preparedness, exposure, vulnerability, responses, and mitigation aspects of both events. Although the hazard intensity and exposure of the latter event were larger than the former one, the policy implementation delay and the dependency of service areas in a single reservoir exposed the region to higher vulnerability. In addition to the structural and non-structural tools implemented just after the events, this work raises the possibility of rainwater reuse for reducing the stress in reservoirs.
Nach der einleitenden Bemerkung, dass die alteuropäische (mittelalterliche und früh neuzeitliche) Identität grundsätzlich konfessionell bestimmt war (Heiraten, Vergabe von Ämtern, Kriegsbündnisse u. a. orientierten sich an der Konfession), gliederte der Referent seinen Vortrag in zwei Abschnitte:
Teil 1: Reflexion über die christliche Identität Alteuropas an der Schwelle vom Mittelalter zur Neuzeit
Teil 2: Die Folgen von Katholischer Reform, Reformation und Gegenreformation für die europäische Geschichte im Konfessionellen Zeitalter, mit einigen Ausblicken auf das aufgeklärte, säkulare 18. Jahrhundert
