"Effect of limestone powder as a partial replacement of crushed quarry sand on properties of self-compacting repair mortars."

Abstract:
Self-compacting repair mortars (SCRM) are particularly desired for the rehabilitation and repair of reinforced concrete structures. The properties of SCRM can be improved by using chemical, mineral, polymer and fiber additives. In limestone quarries, considerable quantities of limestone fine powder are obtained during the process of crushing rock. These fine powders are being collected and their utilization is a big problem from the aspects of disposal, environmental pollution and health hazards. The introduction of limestone powder as cement and sand replacement present interesting possibilities to reduce the cement cost production, CO2 emission and the conservation of natural resources. The effects of limestone powder content in crushed sand on the properties of SCRM are not studied. An experimental study was undertaken to find out the effect of limestone powder content on fresh and hardened properties of SCRM. SCRM mixtures were prepared using crushed sand partially replaced with limestone powder at varying percentages up to 30%. Results indicate that the limestone powder as sand replacement significantly improves the fresh and hardened properties of SCRM with a content ranging from 10 to 15%. The use of limestone powder in repair mortar and concrete application would offer technical, economical and environmental advantages for concrete producers.

Abstract:
British Columbia is a diverse province, with ecosystems ranging from semi-arid deserts to valley glaciers and vast ice fields. By world standards, BC has an abundance of fresh water in its lakes and rivers. However, rivers have been exploited for social and industrial purposes, often to the detriment of the natural values. Community groups and non-government organizations have been active in rehabilitating and restoring waterways. The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC is a provincial non-government organization that has been instrumental in river conservation issues in BC. Three key initiatives have been established by the Council since its formation in 1975. BC Rivers Day has grown into the largest river celebration of its kind in North America, and there is a move to establish a national Rivers Day in Canada based on the model established in BC. Second is the annual Endangered Rivers List compiled by the Council and released each spring. The third initiative is the River Recovery Project in which dams and impoundment structures were evaluated against a set of criteria. A short list of candidates was generated by the project that will be further studied to determine what actions should be taken to alter the management of the structures to restore ecological values of the rivers and streams on which they are built. The three initiatives described rely on local community support. The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC provides coordination, promotion, and publicity as well as some resource materials while local groups and communities take on stewardship roles for their local streams. This model may be useful for other jurisdictions.

Abstract:
Kabupaten Gowa has 63.099 ha forest area, consists of 24.226 ha of protected forest, 3.309 ha of conservation forest/recreation forest, and 35.554 ha of production forest. The value of forest resource can be estimated based on use value an non use value. Use value of forest resource in Kabupaten Goewa covers direct economic value wich is obtained from timber product and non timber product. While indirect economic value is obtained from iriigation water, fresh water, agriculture production increase, and forest recreation value and also contribution in labour section. Contribution of agricultural sector in Bruto Regional Domestic Product (Produk Domestik Regional Bruto = PDRB) of Kabupaten Gowa base on the data of 2000 to 2005 is high enough, more than half of PDRB of Kabupaten Gowa which is 52,29 %. However the contribution of subsector of forestry to the economy of Kabupaten Gowa is very small, only 0,17 %. the use of ecpnomy rent for land of rehabilitation in 2005 has been use as much as Rp. 142.384.858,- for 95,50 ha of area. This fund is come from Dana Alokasi Khusus - Dana Reboisasai(DAK-DR)40 % (special allocation fund-reforestration fund 40 %) the part is managed by the region of production.

Abstract:
Zataria multiflora Boiss. is a rare aromatic species endemic to the southern and southwestern regions of Iran. It is a species that is not under cultivation anywhere else in the world and is only gathered from the wild by amateur collectors. Its cultivation and domestication is very limited. Hence, we investigated the seed germination behaviour and seedling growth of different ecotypes of Z. multiflora collected from 6 sites in Iran (Jam, Ab-garm, Layzangan, Dashte-khak, Kooh-namak, and Chehel-cheshmeh) in late spring. The experiment was carried out at College of Agriculture, Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran, in 2012. The statistical differences among the ecotypes were determined through variance analysis (ANOVA). The results of the pot experiment showed that ecotype had a significant difference for the total germination percentage, number of leaves per plant, plant height, fresh mass, dry mass, relative water content, and antioxidant enzyme activity. Differences in growth performance were also noted in relation to the altitude of the six test populations: ecotypes at a higher altitude exhibited lower germination rates and plant height. This study is significant for land managers and conservation agencies with an interest in optimizing the germination of arid-zone seeds for rehabilitation of this threatened species.

Abstract:
Background. Study of alternative non-pharmacological methods of rehabilitation therapy is an actual task in the direction of preventive and restorative medicine. An important role in rehabilitation measures in preventing urolithiasis relapse is therapy using balneological therapeutic methods. The aim of the study was to perform a clinical and laboratory analysis of the effectiveness of mineral water “Serebrjanniy kluch” (Silver Rill) in rehabilitation therapy for patients with urolithiasis. Materials and methods. The study is based on the results of survey data analysis and treatment of 36 patients with urolithiasis. All patients were randomized into two groups: the first (control) group comprised 17 patients who received standard conservative therapy (antispasmodics and analgesics) and fresh drinking water and the second (main) group comprised 19 patients who received standard conservative therapy and mineral drinking water “Serebrjanniy kljuch” at 5 ml/kg of body weight per serving, at 18°C-25°C for 30-40 minutes before meals 4 times a day in an outpatient setting. Results. In the second group, self-sustained calculus removal was recorded in 78.9% of cases, and there was an increase in daily diuresis in all patients, a decrease in the excretion of oxalate and uric acid in daily urine by 52.3% and 49.9%, respectively, and decrease and normalization of lactate dehydrogenase, leucine aminopeptidase, and N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase concentrations were 28.3%, 24.5%, and 12.5% (p < 0.05), respectively. In addition, the decrease and normalization of the accumulation time indicators were registered 2.7 times (p < 0.05), the half-life period was 2.1 times (p < 0.05), and the glomerular filtration rate increased by 60.1% (p < 0.05) with simultaneous improvement in microcirculation of the kidneys. Conclusions. Consuming mineral water “Serebrjanniy kljuch” as a part of rehabilitation therapy of patients with urolithiasis positively influences the clinical course of the disease, helps reduce the excretion of oxalates and uric acid in daily urine, reduces enzymes, and leads to an increase in daily diuresis.

Abstract:
This article examines Japan’s contemporary personal bankruptcy law reform experience in light of Australia’s proposed reforms to the Bankruptcy Act 1966 (Cth). Japan’s personal insolvency legislation was substantially revised at the turn of the 21st century and a new proceeding for individual rehabilitation introduced. These innovations built on practical and procedural solutions pioneered in the courts especially in the late 1990s as the number of personal bankruptcies increased after the bursting of the bubble economy. The article shows that by comparison with Japanese approaches to discharge, investigation and continuing obligations, including requirements for income contributions, the proposed Australian reforms are conservative and not as debtor-friendly as those in Japan. The time between filing and discharge in Japan, for example, is flexible and typically no more than a few months. The Australian reforms merely suggest revising the default bankruptcy period from three years to a fixed one year. In practice, the article suggests that the obstacles of adverse credit histories and enforcement of personal guarantees against entrepreneurs remain problems for an entrepreneur seeking a fresh start in both jurisdictions.

Abstract:
The importance of treatment of patients with lymphedema of lower limbs arises from difficulties in their medical and social rehabilitation. At the expressed stages of the disease resection surgical operations are indicated which present complicated interventions. In the work clinical observation of a 33 yearold female patient with IV stage of primary lymphedema of the right lower limb is presented. In the course of conservative treatment after a complex examination including volumetry, ultrasound, computed tomography, the patient was made dermalipofascioectomy using method of shave therapy. The operation of modified dermalipofascioectomy of the shin was performed by Karavanov II method under spinal anesthesia with use of mono and bipolar coagulation. At the stage of elimination of fibrotically changed tissue dermatome Acculan 3Ti (GA 670) was used with controlled ranges of thickness within 0.21.2 mm and width within 878 mm. Intraoperative loss of blood and lymph was 800 ml and was compensated for with crystalloid, colloid solutions and fresh frozen plasma in the volume of 600 ml. Active drainage of the region of the postoperative wound was conducted by Redon method within 1012 days. Postoperative period ran without complications, with improvement of the patient’s condition. Clinical observation showed a positive role of application of shave therapy apparatus at the main stage of resection operations.

Abstract:
In 2006, a deadly Escherichia coli O157:H7 outbreak in bagged spinach was traced to California’s Central Coast region, where >70% of the salad vegetables sold in the United States are produced. Although no definitive cause for the outbreak could be determined, wildlife was implicated as a disease vector. Growers were subsequently pressured to minimize the intrusion of wildlife onto their farm fields by removing surrounding noncrop vegetation. How vegetation removal actually affects foodborne pathogens remains unknown, however. We combined a fine-scale land use map with three datasets comprising ∼250,000 enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), generic E. coli, and Salmonella tests in produce, irrigation water, and rodents to quantify whether seminatural vegetation surrounding farmland is associated with foodborne pathogen prevalence in California’s Central Coast region. We found that EHEC in fresh produce increased by more than an order of magnitude from 2007 to 2013, despite extensive vegetation clearing at farm field margins. Furthermore, although EHEC prevalence in produce was highest on farms near areas suitable for livestock grazing, we found no evidence of increased EHEC, generic E. coli, or Salmonella near nongrazed, seminatural areas. Rather, pathogen prevalence increased the most on farms where noncrop vegetation was removed, calling into question reforms that promote vegetation removal to improve food safety. These results suggest a path forward for comanaging fresh produce farms for food safety and environmental quality, as federal food safety reforms spread across ∼4.5 M acres of US farmland.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this work, we report that polarization second harmonic generation (PSHG) microscopy, commonly used in biomedical imaging, can quantitatively discriminate naturally aged from fresh starch-based glues used for conservation or restoration of paintings, works of art on paper, and books. Several samples of fresh and aged (7 years) flour and starch pastes were investigated by use of PSHG. In these types of adhesives, widely used in cultural heritage conservation, second harmonic generation (SHG) contrast originates primarily from the starch granules. It was found that in aged glues, the starch SHG effective orientation (SHG angle, θ) shifts to significantly higher values in comparison to the fresh granules. This shift is attributed to the different degree of granule hydration between fresh and aged adhesives. Thus noninvasive high-resolution nonlinear scattering can be employed to detect and quantify the degree of deterioration of restoration adhesives and to provide guidance toward future conservation treatments.

Abstract:
Fresh extended ram semen has a short fertile lifespan whereas acceptable fertility with cryopreserved semen is achieved only by laparoscopy, which limits widespread artificial insemination in sheep. Although glycerol is considered essential for freezing spermatozoa, it is often included in extenders for short-term storage at above-freezing temperatures. To test the hypothesis that glycerol reduces the function of fresh sperm, ram semen was divided into two aliquots and diluted with commercial extenders that were identical, except that one contained 7% glycerol (n = 6). In a second experiment, ram semen was prepared for cryopreservation by a one-step dilution with a 7% glycerol extender or gradually, with a two-step protocol, to test the hypothesis that the method and time of glycerol addition affects sperm quality after freezing and thawing (n = 7). For both experiments, semen was diluted in a synthetic oviductal fluid (SOF-m) and sperm quality was assessed by computer-assisted motility, viability and chlortetracycline fluorescence (CTC) patterns (an indicator of capacitation status). The presence of glycerol did not affect the quality of fresh sperm (P > 0.27). For cryopreserved sperm, the method of glycerol addition also did not affect thawed sperm. However, a decrease in sperm motility and viability, and different distribution of CTC patterns occurred due to the duration of time in extender and in SOF-m (P ≤ 0.0002). Cryo-capacitation was also observed. In conclusion, the presence of glycerol in the extender did not reduce ram sperm quality during conservation of the semen at 5°C or when it was used to completely and rapidly dilute the semen before cooling for cryopreservation. Key words: Sheep, Triladyl, Biladyl, chlortetracycline, artificial insemination, spermatozoa.

Full text
Abstract:
We developed an inventory of all lakes 100 ha or greater in area in the Western Division of New South Wales including information on source of water, salinity, water regime, lake area, and presence of cultivation permits. Number, area and distribution of different categories of lakes were summarised, and the use of lakes for cropping (lakebed cultivation) and water storage were analysed by category of lake. There were 567 lakes 100 ha or larger in area in the Western Division. The majority of these were mainly dry (includes dry lakes) (56%) or filled intermittently (40%), usually from river flooding. Just under 5% of lakes were perennial. Water regimes in most perennial lakes were controlled by local structures. Seventy lakes had lakebed cultivation permits. Twenty per cent of fresh lakes that filled from a river, rather than from local rainfall, in the Western Division of New South Wales were cultivated (i.e. cropped). Eighty per cent of fresh, riverine lakes larger than 2000 ha which flood and dry intermittently were cultivated. Lakebed cropping in the Western Division of New South Wales has focused on large, fresh, lakes which fill intermittently from rivers. Use of lakes as water storages has also focused on large, fresh lakes. Conservation strategies are recommended for large, fresh lakes that flood intermittently from a river, and are not cropped or used as water storages. These strategies should be directed towards developing voluntary conservation agreements with landholders. Key words: lakes, cropping, GIS, water regimes, conservation

Abstract:
Aim of study: To analyze the effect of three short-term storage temperatures with or without removing seminal plasma on the survival and motility of donkey sperm and the response to refrigeration and centrifugation of the different spermatozoa subpopulations.Area of study: North-eastern Spain (Catalonia).Material and methods: Semen from seven Catalonian jackasses was diluted with a skimmed milk-based (Kenney) extender and different treatments were obtained: FRESH semen, FRESH semen immediately centrifuged to remove the seminal plasma before resuspension in Kenney extender (FRESH+CENTRIFUGATION), FRESH semen stored at 5/15/20ºC for 2 h (STORAGE 5/15/20ºC), and STORAGE 5/15/20ºC semen then centrifuged (STORAGE 5/15/20ºC+CENTRIFUGATION). Survival was examined using eosin-nigrosin stained smears. Motion was assessed by means of a computer-assisted sperm analyzer (CASA).Main results: The spermatozoa of the STORAGE 5ºC and 20ºC showed an overall motility similar to that seen in FRESH samples. However, the STORAGE 15ºC led to an important motility reduction. No differences were seen between the FRESH and STORAGE 5/15/20ºC with respect to progressive motility. However, STORAGE 5/15/20ºC+CENTRIFUGATION all reduced total motility, and STORAGE 15ºC+CENTRIFUGATION led to reduced survival. The sperm motile subpopulations structure of donkey semen was maintained after STORAGE 5/15/20ºC+CENTRIFUGATION, although STORAGE 15ºC+CENTRIFUGATION led to important changes. STORAGE 5/20ºC+CENTRIFUGATION, in contrast, only induced slight changes. STORAGE 20ºC+CENTRIFUGATION was associated with no change in the percentage of sperm cells belonging to each Subpopulation compared to FRESH sperm.Research highlights 2 h of storage at 20ºC followed by centrifugation is suitable for the short-term storage of donkey semen.

Abstract:
The aim of this work was to study the physical, chemical, physiological and microbiological changes during the flow chart of fresh-cut strawberry. Strawberry cvs. Camarosa, Dover and Tudla, derived from experimental area of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa, were selected by color (red ¾) and absence of wound. Afterwards, the minimal processing was evaluated, as follows: fast cooling, water and ice, removal of the calyx followed by conservation at 5±0.5°C and 90-95% RH for 13 days, sanitation, drainage, cut in halves. Removal of the calyx did not result significant difference for fresh weight, total soluble solids, total titratable acidity, pH and ratio TSS/TTA. The rapid cooling resulted in lower electrolyte leakage and respiratory rate, especially sanitized fruits. Sanitization by immersion in chlorine solution slowed the growth of fungi and yeast. Drainage for 20 minutes eliminated practically all water on the surface of the fruits. The fresh-cutting did not affect the visual and nutritional quality of strawberries like appearance, microbiot, vitamin C, anthocyanins and phenolic compounds, consisting of alternative market potential economically viable.

Abstract:
Maize is the second most produced grain in Brazil, which has the potential to produce green maize, which is maize harvested before physiological maturation. Aimed with this work evaluate three packages for postharvest conservation of green maize at room temperature in the conditions of the Brazilian cerrado. The double hybrid AG-1051 were planted. After the cobs were harvested, they were submitted to three treatments, each treatment with three repetitions and each repetition contained 4 cobs. The analyzes carried out were: fresh weight loss, instrumental coloring, titratable acidity content, ascorbic acid content and soluble solids. The results were submitted to the 5% Tukey test and regression. The treatment with polyethylene stood out for the loss of fresh mass, color of the maize cobs as for the levels of titratable acidity, presenting the best results and, for the same parameters, the maize cobs of the treatment with straw showed the lowest results, showing that the conservation straw cobs is the least suitable treatment. As for the content of ascorbic acid and soluble solids, the results showed no statistical difference for any of the treatments showing that they kept the contents unchanged during storage.

Abstract:
A wetland is an area of land whose soil is saturated with moisture either permanently or seasonally. Such areas may also be covered partially or completely by shallow pools of water. Wetlands include swamps, marshes, and bogs. The water found in wetlands can be saltwater, freshwater, or brackish. The world's largest wetland is the Pantanal which straddles Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguayan South America. Wetlands are considered the most biologically diverse of all ecosystems. Plant life found in wetlands includes mangrove, water lilies, cattails, sedges, tamarack, black etc. A swamp is a wetland with some flooding of large areas of land by shallow bodies of water. Saltwater is water from a sea or ocean. Fresh water is naturally occurring water on the Earth's surface in bogs, ponds, lakes, rivers and streams, and underground as groundwater in aquifers and underground streams. Brackish water is water that has more salinity than fresh water, but not as much as seawater spruce, cypress, gum tree, and many others. Animal life includes many different amphibians, reptiles, birds, insects, and mammals. In many locations, such as the United Kingdom, Iraq, South Africa and the United States, wetlands are the subject of conservation efforts and biodiversity Action Plans.

Abstract:
Sustaining the shelf life of fresh food remains a herculean task to most farmers as cold chain must remain unbroken in order to maintain the quality of fresh food. The concept of this research is to reduce energy consumption in refrigerated vehicles through light weight insulated panel as this medium could effectively reduce the payload of the entire vehicle. Part of the progress made in this work, is to develop five different composite cover sheet for insulated panel using fibre loading and orientation as manufacturing parameters and results show that oriented reinforced composite materials offer significant weight reduction compared to un-oriented composite cover sheet. The panel weight of these new materials were estimated using all the conceptual parameters of a refrigerated vehicle and the results indicate that composite reinforced with 10%wt. of fibre at 30o orientation in the matrix, offers the best panel weight reduction with 5.2380Kg/m2 and 6.7380Kg/m2 for 50mm and 100mm insulation thicknesses, respectively.

Abstract:
Water quality and quantity are critical issues as the Florida’s population grows. This paper analyzed water use regionally (central, north, and south Florida) as well as in rural and urban areas in Florida from 2005 to 2015 using three indicators (total water use, agriculture water use, and per capita water use). Eight (8) water-consuming categories, such as aquaculture, livestock, irrigation, public supply, thermoelectric power, mining, industrial self-supply, and domestic self-supply, were considered for total water use. Per capita water use used public supply category and agricultural water use used aquaculture, livestock, and irrigation categories. Linear regression analysis was used to observe the relationship between population and water use. The highest water use was recorded in south Florida, while the lowest was in north Florida. Water use per capita was higher in urban areas. Irrigation water use was higher among the eight water use categories. Many drivers influencing Florida water use were identified through literature review and causal loop diagram was developed. Some (e.g., household size, land use/land cover change, urbanization, agriculture, population, income, climate change, tourism, and industry) may cause an increase in water use, while others (e.g., pricing systems, conservation methods, education, and technology) may cause a decrease in water use. Overall, this research addresses the need of understanding water use trends and the drivers affecting those trends, which are important to determine whether a water conservation plan is needed.

Abstract:
Purpose Birds are implicated in spoiling and decay of buildings, especially through their droppings. Pigeons are considered the main culprits, and several studies have examined the effects and chemistry of accumulations of droppings without evidence to the exact origins of the source of the excreta. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach This study reviews and summarises the state of knowledge with regard to the impact of bird excreta on buildings. It experimentally assesses the acidity of fresh pigeon excreta with different diets and examines the development of the acidity of the excreta after voiding. Findings Feral pigeons in urban settings are known to be fed by a range of foods. Urban food scraps-derived diets produce more acidic excreta than more natural diets such as seeds. This is a first study of its kind to examine the impact of a bird’s diet on the pH and thus the resulting (potential) decay of masonry. Research limitations/implications This study showed that from a management’s perspective, pigeons that subsist entirely on human provided foods will be depositing more initially acidic faeces. If faecal accumulation occurs; then, mould and other bacteria quickly alter the chemistry from acidic towards basic, but the damage may already be done. Originality/value This paper is the first study of its kind to examine the effects of fresh pigeon droppings of known origin and age once voided from the intestine. This allows the authors to assess the impact during the first few days.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction It is difficult to treat pediatric extensive burns, which contribute to high mortality rates, partly because of the lack of large allogeneic skin to close wound in China. Therefore, we innovatively used fresh scalp as thin split thickness skin allografts to cover the burn wounds of pediatric patients. Methods Fresh scalp allografts were harvested from voluntary donors who were patients’ relatives. The median total burn area in the major burns was of 40% TBSA, in depth of deep second to third degree. The fresh scalp allografts were transplanted on the wounds post tangential excision or escharectomy in the way of mere fresh scalp allografts coverage or mixed coverage with autografts and fresh scalp allografts. Results All the patients survived without serious complications during the treatment period. The median healing time was 47 days; the average healing time of the donors’ scalps was (7.6±1.08) days with no scar formation, alopecia areata or folliculitis post operation. Conclusions The use of fresh scalp allografts in the treatment of pediatric major burns is an effective and feasible method in protecting wounds and promoting wound healing as well as in reducing scar formation in the donor sites of burned children. The high ratio of fresh scalp areas to pediatric burn wound areas ensures high efficiency of wound coverage; and healthy relative skin donors have more initiatives and favorable healing results. Applicability of Research to Practice This is a clinical research which is highly applicable in practice.

Abstract:
Category: Other Introduction/Purpose: Plantar fasciitis is the most common cause of heel pain in adults, affecting 1 out of 10 of the population at some point during their lifetime. Plantar specific stretching programs are popularity among foot and ankle surgeons consisting of passively dorsiflexing foot and using thumb to apply pressure. This technique is not without limitations. Certain patients are unable to properly perform the stretching techniques, such as limited mobility from advanced age, disability, or simply from performing stretching exercises incorrectly. The aims of this study are; first, identify what configuration of plantar-specific stretching combined with applied pressure to the plantar aponeurosis generates the greatest tensional force in the plantar fascia. And second, to construct a prototype device that could simulate these forces in a hands-free technique. Methods: Six (will be 10) fresh-frozen, morphologically normal cadaver feet (Medcure, RI) were utilized. Plantar fascia was exposed, ankle was fixed at 90-degree dorsiflexion using Calcaneo-Tibial Schanz Pin, specimen was then inverted and potted in a custom-made box (Smooth-Cast 300q, PA). Using an electromagnetic motion tracking system (Liberty, Polhemus, VT), the motion of sensors was recorded at 120 Hz. Utilizing tissue adhesive glue (Vetbond, 3M, Minnesota), the first sensor was attached to medial calcaneal tuberosity, and the second sensor was placed 5 cm distal to the first sensor on the plantar aponeurosis. Custom- built testing apparatus was made for induction of MTP dorsiflexion application of pressure on the plantar aponeurosis to mimic current conservative treatments. Weights were added to the custom build stretcher device in 10Lb increments. Strain percentage was calculated as the change in length divided by the baseline length position (condition 1) using the formula: ([L − Lo]/Lo) × 100 Results: Dorsiflexion of 2nd-5th MTPs increases strain percentage more in comparison with 1st MTP dorsiflexion (Condition 3>4>2). This might show that dorsiflexing of 1st metatarsal is less effective at straining the plantar fascia because of the midfoot motion. By adding thumb pressure, strain percentages go higher, up to a point that in condition 7 (dorsiflexing all MTPs in combination of thumb pressure) it is significantly higher than our baseline condition (P=0.0385). It is noteworthy that, stretcher device itself (condition 8), cannot replicate conditions 4 or 7 strain percentages. When adding direct pressure and weight to the stretcher device (conditions 12 and 13), strains are even higher than condition 7 and also are significantly higher than the baseline (P= 0.0090 and 0.0291 respectively). Conclusion: The stretcher device itself is insufficient for stretching the plantar fascia, supporting the hypothesis of this study that we need a direct forceful pressure on the plantar aponeurosis as well. Our customized plantar stretcher not only can replicate the conventional stretching program, but also can produce higher strains on the plantar aponeurosis than the current manual application of plantar specific stretching. This device may impact the rehabilitation process in patients with advanced age as well as patients with spine mobility limitation who cannot perform manual stretching programs.

Abstract:
Different egg conservation techniques were assessed under low temperature conditions to multiply the parasitoid of stink bug eggs Trissolcus basalis (Woll.) (Hymenoptera:Scelionidae). Masses of fresh Nezara viridula (L.) eggs were stored for 12 months in liquid nitrogen (-196ºC), wrapped in aluminum foil, in microcentrifuge tubes ("eppendorf") or in vacuum sealed double plastic bags (500 eggs/technique/month). Every 30 days, 10 egg masses from each of the different storage techniques, were taken out, thawed immediately and subjected to parasitism by T. basalis. Green stink bug eggs, stored at -196ºC presented conservation conditions and viability for T. basalis development, with high parasitism rates and emergence in the eggs stored under the three different techniques. Parasitism of eggs stored wrapped in aluminum foil (95.4%), in tubes (92.3%), and under vacuum (93.7%) were statistically equal to parasitism in fresh eggs (97.3%). Egg viability, expressed by the rate of emergence of adult parasitoids, indicates that the three techniques studied provided excellent T. basalis development and emergence conditions with no significant differences when compared with fresh eggs. Throughout the total storage period (12 months) there was no reduction in the number of females hatched, although there were fluctuations in the sexual ratio for some periods. These results make green stink bug egg conservation, and later multiplication of the parasitoid T. basalis possible for a period twice as long as that known and used today.

Abstract:
Arugula is mainly cultivated by small producers, being a leafy vegetable susceptible to water loss and wilting after harvest, which may result in changes in appearance, texture, color (yellowing), and nutritional value of the product. Hydrocooling is a cooling method that stands out for being simple, practical and efficient. Its use is to reduce the temperature and respiratory rate of vegetables after harvesting by immersion in ice or cold water, so they can be packed and stored. This study was conducted to evaluate the hydrocooling efficiency when associated with the storage period in the postharvest shelf life of arugula leaves. Arugula leaves were subjected to ten days of storage, and measurements were taken at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 days. The experimental design was completely randomized in a 3 × 6 factorial scheme, consisting of three hydrocooling treatments [control (without cooling), and hydrocooling at 0 °C and 10 °C] and for six storage periods (0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 days) with three replicates. Fresh mass loss, soluble solids, titratable acidity, pH and subjective evaluation of product appearance were measured. Hydrocooling at 0 °C proved to be the most appropriate treatment when compared to control, as reported by the values of fresh mass loss, soluble solids, and titratable acidity. Hydrocooling to 0 °C slowed leaf water loss (lower respiratory rate) and resulted in better overall leaf appearance up to the sixth day of storage, thereby increasing shelf life of arugula leaves.
