In this context, the exploitation of unconventional and underutilized flours or by - products for performant fermentation processes with selected starter cultures or artisanal consortia to obtain bioactive sourdoughs rich in metabiotics (prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, paraprobiotics) can contribute to the diversification of bakery products with beneficial effects [2], [3]. The major objective of this work was to assess the impact of two different gluten - free sourdoughs made of chickpea, quinoa, buckwheat, and okara by fermentation with selected lactic acid bacteria strains, respectively with selected water kefir grains on a gluten - free bread. The obtained sourdough’s addition (0 - 25% w/w) extended the shelf - life of the bakery products against molds spoilage with 2 - 4 days. Moreover, maximum values for the antioxidant activity (ABTS) were determined for both samples supplemented with 25% (w/w) sourdough, after 2 hours of intestinal digestion using an in vitro simulated model [4] . The results ranged between 2.97 - 4.89 mM TE/100 g DW bread. A DPPH radical scavenging inhibition of 17.32% was determined for the sourdough bread containing 25% (w/w) sourdough fermented by the water kefir of the DPPH was determined for the sample with 10% (w/w) sourdough by the selected from Collection. offers innovative perspectives for obtaining label gluten - free bakery products with increased and functionality.","PeriodicalId":394576,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th World Congress on New Technologies","volume":"144 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122549741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is an important photosynthetic model organism for ecotoxicological purposes. Recently, the importance of this alga in biotechnology and green industry has begun to grow. Chlorella vulgaris , on the other hand, is a very interesting dietary supplement. Here we describe the data obtained by exposing these algae to PET microparticles (1-5 μm in diameter). At the same time, research into plastic micro/nano-particles is increasingly emphasizing the analysis of 'natural' particles (i.e. not industrial templates in the shape of a perfect sphere – especially polystyrene templates), [3]. In addition, many studies use non-physiological amounts of particles that are not found in the environment [4]. In this work, we focus on the effect of environment-like amount and environmental-like shape of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) microparticles on Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Chlorella vulgaris .

Now we want apply this know-how in new areas too. The core of dynairix is based on quasi steady CFD results using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) coupled (one-way) with the Lagrangian particles tracking method. Using this methodology, our tool calculates the dynamic risk factor and shows the ventilation system and its effects in closed environments. This is something especially useful during any epidemics where viruses are transmitted by aerosols. The calculations are based on the real physics of the simulations of various scenarios.

This is known to be harmful to the human body and affects industrial activities. In order to prevent damage to the health environment, society, and economy as a whole due to the increase in PM concentration, it is important to secure regional accurate PM concentration calculation and monitoring technology for it. However, the current PM observation network consisting of ground and point observation shows many limitations in time and space. As an alternative to this, studies that obtain PM concentration using satellite observation are actively underway [1]. As the optical characteristics of PM can be measured and the polar orbit and geostationary satellites, which are environmental satellite payloads, become more diverse, it will be more promising. Nevertheless, there is a problem here, too. The optical sensor-based Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) images have missing parts due to clouds, etc., which make it difficult to analyze the PM variation. Therefore, this study aims to spatial gap-filling of the GK-2A (Geostationary Korea Multi-purpose Satellite 2A)/AMI (Advanced Meteorological Imager) AOD images using the meteorological data and random forest model. The spatial area of study is the Korean Peninsula, where long-distance transportation PM from neighboring Asian countries such as China, Mongolia, and Russia occurs at high concentrations every year.

In times of intensified anthropopressure processes, dam reservoirs lose their original meaning only as an ecosystem that is a place of life for various aquatic organisms. Eutrophication also has a serious impact on the functioning of organisms living in the water, as well as on the health of people using the reservoir (the algae causing eutrophication are toxic). The installation improving the quality (IIWQ) of water \"Ventura\" is located on the Turawa reservoir (50º43'25 \"N 18º07'13\" E), located in 18,900 km of the Mała Panew river in the Opolskie Voivodeship in Poland. The Ventura facility is located on the right bank of the Turawa reservoir, the area of operation of the installation includes the reservoir bay, where the adjacent area is used for tourism as a camping site. Due to the characteristics of the area, we observe large changes in nitrogen concentration during the study period. The Turawa reservoir was built in the years 1933-1939 for the purpose of water retention for the maintenance of the Odra flows for navigation purposes, and for recreation and relaxation. The tourist potential and the landscape and natural value of the site are drastically reduced during the growing season due to excessive eutrophication. Large amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus loads flowing into the waters of the Turawa reservoir significantly contribute to the gradual eutrophication, deteriorating the living conditions of aquatic organisms and limiting the possibilities of using the accumulated waters. The aim of the work was to compare the water quality status before the installation is put into operation, during its operation and after the end of the 3-year period of operation. The paper presents the results of water quality tests. Based on the information on the volume of nutrient loads flowing in and out of the installation, the impact of the installation on the improvement of water quality in the reservoir was determined. In addition, control tests were carried out at checkpoints in the reservoir. It was found that increased eutrophication processes occur in the Turawa reservoir, which is mainly determined by nitrogen compounds. The research period covered measurements from June 2019 to May 2020, while from May 2020 to December 2021, the effectiveness of the operating installation was tested in the context of reducing the concentration of nitrates and phosphates.","PeriodicalId":394576,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th World Congress on New Technologies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129334772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since then, the frequency of detection of this type of contamination has been increasing yearly, both through increasing consumption and analytical ability. Due to the influence on the physiological state of organisms and high stability, even in low concentrations, drugs pose a real threat to biological systems - both for individual organisms and entire populations [2]. Today, many pharmaceuticals are resistant to elimination in conventional wastewater treatment plants [3]. Hence, the search for effectively eliminating this type of contamination from water systems is essential. In our research, we attempted to introduce bacterial strains (Bacillus thuringiensis B1 (2015b) and Pseudomonas moorei KB4) with an increased ability to degrade NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) into the activated sludge system and to determine the effectiveness of the elimination of selected drugs- diclofenac, naproxen, ibuprofen and paracetamol and in concentrations of 1, 1, 5 and 10 mg per litre, respectively.

Alarming increases in the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder in the United States have been reported. Currently, there are four commonly used data sources (i.e., Special Education Child Count, National Survey of Children’s Health, Medicaid, Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network) related to ASD prevalence that are presented on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) database. However, the data availability and coverage, relative consistency, and accuracy of those data sources in the past 20 years are yet to be investigated. In this study, I quantitatively assessed the discrepancies of autism prevalence among the four CDC measures for the entire United States and its 50 states. Statistical analysis showed that there was a significant disparity among different measures. The data coverage, methodology, and design criteria for each measure were then investigated, with the recommendation of improving areas for each measure provided. It was evident that there was a high unmet need to reduce disparities in the identification of ASD, which could guide the collection of appropriate and reliable ASD prevalence data and support relevant scientific studies on possible causes and effective interventions.","PeriodicalId":394576,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th World Congress on New Technologies","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125158897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, mine activity has caused the presence of 1235 abandoned and mismanaged mining environmental liabilities [2]; that are source of acid mine drainage (AMD), characterized by low pH water with elevated concentrations of iron, sulphates and heavy metals that impact on basin headwater ecosystems and livelihoods [3]. For this issue, constructed wetlands have emerged as a low-cost and easy-to-operate technology [4]. These systems emulate natural wetland functions through physical, chemical and biological processes, in an environment, which can be controlled and manipulated [5]. Empirical research reported, constructed wetlands are an efficient alternative of removing heavy metals of AMD and improve water quality [6], [7]. However, the performance in the treatment efficiency of each component is still relatively unknown [6], [8]. Therefore, four small scale constructed wetlands (SS-CW) were implemented (0.59mx0.38mx0.24m). These systems were continuously fed with AMD collected from the Mesapata mining environmental liability located in Ancash highland. The flow rate and hydraulic retention time were 5 L.d -1 and 3.1 d respectively. From bottom to top, SS-CW 1 was composed of limestone, organic matter (40% compost, 40% domestically animal manure and 20% peat) and macrophytes ( Juncus imbricatus ), SS-CW 2: limestone and organic matter; SS-CW 3: limestone, organic matter, macrophytes and reducing sulfate bacteria, and SS-CW 4: gravel 3/8”, organic matter and macrophytes. pH and electrical conductivity were measured using a Hach Sension 156 multiparametric and total iron (Fe) was measured using Iron Test MQuant 114438. Results show that acid mine drainage in the influent had pH 2.3 ± 0.1 (N=10), electrical conductivity 3018 ± 257.7 mS.cm -1 (N=10) and Fe 202.3 ± 34.6 mg.L -1 (N=10). In the effluent, for the four SS-CW, pH was > 5.7 and electrical conductivity are > 2149.2 mS.cm -1 and Fe < 99.7 mg.L -1 , also, there is statistically significant difference of pH increase (p-value: 0.022 by ANOVA test) and there is no statistically significant difference in removal of Fe (p-value: 0.0733 by Kruskal-Wallis test) between the SS-CW. The highest Fe removal efficiency was in SS-CW 3 followed by SS-CW 2, SS-CW 4 and SS-CW 2 with 67.1% ± 8.7% (N=8), 64.1% ± 11.7% (N=9), 57.8% ± 8.4% (N=9) and 51.4% ± 17.9% (N=9) respectively.
