Abstract

This review discusses the use, mode of action, biomarkers, and bioindicators of inorganic arsenic and mercuric fungicides, as well as their effects on the environment and human health. The most prevalent indicator of exposure to arsenic is the measurement of total arsenic in urine. Biomarkers of exposure for arsenic and inorganic fungicides incudes the analysis of hair, urine, blooda and nails. Bio indicators are species or group of species that are used to indicate adverse effect of contamination. Freshwater fish species act as a very good bio indicator for inorganic arsenic. Tree bark, rice fields and sea birds could be a valuable indicator of inorganic arsenic contamination. Black Piranha, fish and earthworms are an ideal bio indicator of inorganic mercury. Inorganic arsenic compounds are known to be highly carcinogenic and toxic compounds. Mercuric fungicide is very toxic when inhaled by humans or animals it causes severe health issues and when absorbed by plants it retards their growth.  To estimate the daily dose of arsenic exposure to humans through absorption, ingestion and other pathways, Average daily dose is implemented by using two equations from the US EPA. To determine the ecological risk assessment a simplified equation was proposed by FDA i.e. HQ = E/RfD. Overall, the review emphasizes the need for heightened awareness, regulation, and alternative approaches to fungicide use, with a focus on minimizing the use of inorganic arsenic and mercuric fungicides to safeguard the environment and promote sustainable agricultural practices.

Abstract

The study evaluated the practice of Medication Safety and assesses the knowledge of medication safety practices among hospital pharmacists in a teaching hospital in southeast Nigeria. It was a quantitative study divided broadly into two phases. Phase one involved the collection of the medication error forms filled by pharmacists in the hospital over 3 months; January – March 2021. The second phase was the administration of self-completed questionnaires. The data was collected and analyzed. The medication errors encountered were assessed, classified, and the prevalence determined. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise the data. Overall, 68 medication error forms were collected over the 3-month data collection period. The top category of prescribing error was dose/frequency omitted (24.65%), followed by duration/stop date omitted and dose inappropriate (over), both were 17.81%. The medication safety domain to which pharmacists demonstrated the highest positive response rate (PRR) was Personal Influence Over Safety with 63.33% (SD±20.09), and the domain with the lowest positive response rate was Facilitators and Barriers at the Workplace with 46.25% (SD±25.67). Most of the pharmacists answered yes to having filled out the hospital’s medication error form at least once. 3 of the 4 medication safety domains had above-average positive response rates (PRR). The medication safety domain with the lowest PRR was the facilitators and barriers at the workplace domain with 46.25%. There were no significant differences in associations between pharmacists of different ages, years of experience, and different genders in their attitudes toward medication safety; after applying Pearson’s correlation test.

Abstract

The study aimed to design and fabricate an automated indoor hydroponic plant growth chamber, by comparing the manual system to determine plant growth and development and the sub-objective was to send data to the IoT platform. The sensor-based automated system incorporated pH, TDS, temperature, and humidity sensors, controlled by solenoid valves using Arduino. Tomato and lettuce plants were grown in both systems and growth parameters were measured. The results showed that the automated system maintained consistent temperature, humidity, pH, and EC levels similar to the outdoor system (vary in 30-32, 52-79, 5.5-6.5, and 1.5-2.5 dS/m ranges respectively). Furthermore, the automated indoor system significantly enhanced the plant growth of tomato and lettuce plants compared to the manual system. Significantly higher plant heights of 27.9±1.9 cm and 27.4±4.9 cm, the leaf lengths of 3.2±0.1 cm and 3.9±0.1 cm were observed for the tomatoes and the lettuces respectively in the automated indoor system. A significant difference was observed between the SPAD reading of the automated indoor tomato of 30±0.9 and the outdoor tomato of 26±0.4. Similarly, SPAD readings for the automated indoor lettuce of 23±0.3 and outdoor lettuce of 17±0.5 were significantly different (Pr=<0.0001, Pr≤0.05). These findings highlight the effectiveness of the automated hydroponic system in accommodating plant preferences and its potential for improving agricultural practices. By integrating IoT platforms for data analysis, this technology can optimize plant growth, enhance yields, and facilitate informed decision-making in hydroponic farming.

Abstract

India is a country of rivers. Sundarban is the world’s largest deltaic region, which is also part of the Ganga region. Highly populated this region is frequently faced intensive floods. The objective of this paper is to give a notion about the potential embankment zone along the Vidyadhari River. Changes in riverbanks since 1972 have been highlighted through GIS and Remote Sensing Applications. Through this paper, erosional and depositional zones along the Vidyadhari River are also spotted out. The potential embankment zone is measured by the vulnerability analysis based on river bank shifting. The proper embankment technology has also suggested a sustainable embankment along the river Vidyadhari river, which is guided by the Irrigation Department, Government of West Bengal.

Abstract

For any new internet-based product, service, or technology to succeed, it must satisfy the criterion of providing access to or creating a network of possible users, products, and services. This is the Conceptual Access-Network (CANTOR) Thesis proposed. In addition to the main issues of success and how and why internet technology evolves, the principle can also meet the objective of explaining what underlies a range of traditional and nontraditional technologies beyond the internet. Through qualitative exploration, the tenets of the access-network thesis are applied to natural and synthetic forms of endocrine substances including insulin and highways. A discussion of technologically generated knowledge is included, as well as how phenomenotechnique can be used to establish a communication path between technology and what it produces. Dr. Stanley Milgram's intimate stranger phenomenon which was first explored in 1967, before the internet existed, will ultimately be distorted by the future of internet-based technologies.  As previously discovered or established concepts are combined or permuted, the future will display numerous manifestations, combinations, and permutations. We conclude that successful internet-based products, services, or technologies simply would not work without an access network. From this article, we have gained a better understanding of the current development stage of internet-based products and technology, thereby enabling society to better anticipate the future of internet-based products and technology, highlight significant ethical considerations, and avoid unwanted outcomes.

Abstract

The review discusses students’ challenges as they move between educational levels and the labor market, mainly due to the lack of effective, efficient, and timely career guidance. The review suggests that using ontologies can improve career guidance delivery by providing a structured approach to representing and organizing career-related data. The study conducted a systematic literature review and found that ontologies have not been extensively applied in the career guidance domain. The review highlights the unique advantages of using ontologies for career guidance (CG), such as formal representation, interoperability, and knowledge representation and reasoning. The review also points out the loopholes in the few studies that attempted to use ontologies in CG. A systematic literature review was carried out to assess the extent to which ontologies have been applied in CG. Four reviewers performed a systematic search in IEEE, Scopus, Web of Science, and google scholar independently using agreed-upon criteria. To eliminate the bias of leaving out important studies, abstracts from selected conferences were carefully screened and reference scanning of the search results was performed. Out of 307 studies, 11 were found to match the search parameters and were included in the study.

Abstract

This study examined the challenges that are faced by South African public enterprises in implementing digitalization in the Human Resource Management (HRM) department. A qualitative research approach was used with data obtained using structured interviews from a public enterprise, and Human Resource Practitioners were used to conduct interviews in this study. Purposive non-probability sampling was applied in engaging 15 participants in a public corporation and data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The study revealed that HRM departments do not entirely make use of technology in their operations. The inability to use technology is due to a lack of in-house digital training, and the organization’s inability to quickly swiftly respond to environmental changes due to bureaucratic structure. It was therefore recommended that public entities embark on extensive employee digital training and implementation of effective internal digital systems for organizational effectiveness.

Abstract

Recently, the artificial intelligence known as ChatGPT has turned into a global sensation, especially among students. This research paper investigates the influence of this AI-powered chatbot, on undergraduate social science students based on insights drawn from semi-structured interviews. The study aims to understand the level of awareness, adoption, perceived usefulness, and impact of ChatGPT on academic performance. 200 undergraduate students were selected and verbatim transcription was used and later thematic analysis was implemented. We implied our custom code to analyze the data based on sample collection from the students. The findings indicate that most of the participants were aware of ChatGPT and had used it for academic work. Perceived usefulness and ease of use were found to be significant factors that influenced the adoption of this technology. Social influence was also found to be a significant factor, with peer recommendations playing a role in shaping students' attitudes toward new technology. ChatGPT had a positive impact on the academic performance of the participants, particularly in assisting them in understanding difficult concepts and providing them with relevant study materials. The study suggests that chatbots can be valuable tools for learning and academic assistance, particularly in disciplines such as social science that require extensive research and analysis. The findings provide useful insights for educators and researchers seeking to integrate chatbots into existing teaching and learning methods to optimize their benefits. More research is needed to assess the future impacts on students and the education sector alike.

Abstract

Academic institutions in Uganda are accustomed to using pen-on-paper exams where students are given an answer booklet at the time of the exam. Universities frequently use customized answer booklets which help to lower the prevalence of exam fraud among students. Universities continue to encounter the challenge of examining summative questions like essays after the migration to electronic examinations brought about by the Covid-19 social distancing effects due to the lack of a customized electronic answer booklet. The primary goal of this research was to design algorithms for a customized electronic answer booklet. These algorithms went through six stages, starting with analyzing the problem and ending with developing the algorithms. The design, analysis, and coding of four algorithms i.e. cover page, single empty page, adding a page, and watermark addition algorithms was completed. The designed electronic personalized answer booklet is dynamic in nature and supports page addition, text crossing out or rubbing, and navigating through the electronic question paper. Any academic institution may utilize this electronic answer book.
