Extending Research Of Neighborhood Governance Systems: An Empirical Study Of Community Councils In Cincinnati, Ohio, Julie Cencula Olberding, Darrin Wilson, Stefanie Swiger
Extending Research Of Neighborhood Governance Systems: An Empirical Study Of Community Councils In Cincinnati, Ohio, Julie Cencula Olberding, Darrin Wilson, Stefanie Swiger
The Journal of Economics and Politics
Neighborhood governance systems have been developed as a way to enhance citizen engagement in local government, particularly in major cities. Scholarly research on these systems is quite limited, and most articles focus on neighborhood councils in Los Angeles, California. Our study extends this research to another system in a different city – specifically, community councils in Cincinnati, Ohio. Based on Li, Wen, and Cooper (2019), we surveyed their governing board members and analyzed relationships between three aspects of board performance (internal capacity, attention-action congruence, external networking) and three dimensions of community council effectiveness (promoting civic engagement, resolving neighborhood issues, advising …
The Quest For An Independent Scotland: The Impact Of Culture, Economics, And International Relations Theory On Votes Of Self-Determination, Sam Rohrer, James Gilley, Nathan Price
The Quest For An Independent Scotland: The Impact Of Culture, Economics, And International Relations Theory On Votes Of Self-Determination, Sam Rohrer, James Gilley, Nathan Price
The Journal of Economics and Politics
In the contemporary world, the true locus of sovereignty is up for debate. The drive for Scottish independence from the United Kingdom, within the larger context of the European Union illustrates trends within this relocation of sovereignty. Traditional research focused primarily on the cultural and identity issues at play, as well as economic issues. This work broadens the scope by placing the independence struggle within a complex international context. The shift from a purely realist state system interpretation to that of a refereed Pacific Union illustrates when nationalist and separatist movements can find conditions that allow for a viable secessionist …
Firm Behavior In The Mid-Twentieth Century American Steel Industry, Robert Rogers
Firm Behavior In The Mid-Twentieth Century American Steel Industry, Robert Rogers
The Journal of Economics and Politics
In the period from 1920 to 1972, the American steel industry consisted of eight large companies and a fringe composed of small domestic producers and foreign firms exporting to the United States. The market structure made it unlikely that the industry behaved in a perfectly competitive fashion. Thus, oligopoly hypotheses on firm behavior such as Nash-Bertrand and Stackelberg leadership seem plausible. This paper estimates a BLP demand model for the industry, and it, then, uses the demand parameters to estimate price equations under the different behavioral assumptions. From the information in this model, tests are made to see which hypothesis …
The Evolution Of Distributive Benefits: The Rise Of Letter-Marking In The United States Congress, Russell W. Mills, Nicole Kalaf-Hughes
The Evolution Of Distributive Benefits: The Rise Of Letter-Marking In The United States Congress, Russell W. Mills, Nicole Kalaf-Hughes
The Journal of Economics and Politics
The recent moratorium on earmarks has given rise to a new and largely hidden practice for securing distributive benefits: letter-marking. Letter-marking occurs when members of Congress ask (in writing) the head of an agency to retain or allocate distributive benefits in their districts. While letter-marking is common in Washington, the scholarly literature has ignored this practice. We use a unique dataset of 101 congressional letters relating to FAA funding and empirically assess the degree to which the letter-writer’s characteristics and the letter’s content impact the likelihood of achieving the objectives. In doing so, we offer a nuanced understanding of letter-marking.

Evaluation Of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Profiles In Fermented Artemisia Annua Leaf Extract, Mabitine Daniel Malo, Ohemu Adaofoyi Isaiah, Igaznda Terhemba James, Obamuwe Rebecca Joy, Ugber Erdoo Charity, Itodo Monday Christopher
Journal of Bioresource Management
This study evaluated the presence, profile and concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the fermented leaf extract of Artemisia annua, a medicinal plant widely used for its antimalarial and skin-benefiting properties. Given the plant’s increased use in Nigerian traditional medicine, this research examines how fermentation a process known to enhance bioactive compound availability may influence PAH levels, which are of concern due to their carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects. The A. annua leaves were fermented using Saccharomyces cerevisiae cultures and subsequently analyzed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) to detect and quantify PAHs. The analysis identified 24 distinct PAH …
A Single-Step Plate Method For The Screening Of Xyl-A Mutant Libraries Based On Gene Expression, Bilqees Fatima, Muhammad Mohsin Javed
A Single-Step Plate Method For The Screening Of Xyl-A Mutant Libraries Based On Gene Expression, Bilqees Fatima, Muhammad Mohsin Javed
Journal of Bioresource Management
A single-step plate method is described for the screening of transformants of cloned gene xyl-A encoding xylose isomerase. It is rapid, inexpensive, easy to perform, and more specific, as the selection is based on xyl-A expression level. The crucial composition of the plate medium comprised agar, buffer, nutrients, co-factor, substrate, inducer, antibiotic, and an indicator, i.e., 2, 3, 5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC). Transformed cells of E. coli BL21 (DE3) with a plasmid (pET21(a)++xyl-A), were exclusively capable of growing, isomerizing the substrate, and producing deep-red formazan by reducing TTC, whereas the untransformed cells and cells containing a …

Bioinformatics-Driven Structural And Functional Characterization Of Caffeine Synthase (Ccs1), Asia Khalil, Muhammad Naveed, Raja Muhammad Ahmad, Sania Saeed, Ayesha Hameed, Ayman Iqbal, Fakhra Nazir
Journal of Bioresource Management
Caffeine synthase (CCS1; EC 2.1.1.160) is a S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM; S-adenosyl-L-methionine) dependent N-methyltransferase that executes the final methylation steps of caffeine biosynthesis in coffee, tea, and related plants. While paraxanthine can act as an efficient substrate, it contributes to a comparatively minor branch in the overall pathway. We conducted an integrated in silico analysis of CCS1, covering sequence retrieval, structure prediction, 3D modeling, and mutation assessment. Secondary structure was inferred using PSIPRED; physicochemical indices were computed via AA-PROP; 3D models were generated by I-TASSER and evaluated by Verify3D; and missense effects were prioritized using PolyPhen-2, PROVEAN, I-Mutant, and PhD-SNP. Taken together, …

Bio-Oil Production From Palm Kernel Shell By Pyrolysis: Feedstock Characterization And Potential For Sustainable Transportation Fuel Production, Monday Ejiga, Helen Olayinka Ogunsuyi, Taiwo Mary Oriyomi, Ayodele Adekunle Faiyetole
Journal of Bioresource Management
Transportation energy constitutes a substantial share of global energy consumption, and its associated contribution to emissions and, by extension, climate change, necessitates intensified efforts toward the development of sustainable transportation fuels. This study investigated the suitability of Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) biomass for pyrolytic bio-oil production as a potential precursor for transportation biofuels. Laboratory-scale pyrolysis at 450-500 °C produced bio-oil, while proximate analysis (wt.%) showed low moisture (5.59), moderate fixed carbon (20.11), high volatile matter (66.25), and relatively high ash (8.05) contents. Ultimate analysis (wt.%) revealed 49.25 carbon, 5.17 hydrogen, 43.90 oxygen, 0.79 nitrogen, and 0.89 sulphur, with Van Krevelen …

Journal of Bioresource Management
Saffron (Crocus sativus ) is a very traditional plant in Morocco, especially in the Taliouine region. Saffron stigmas are traditionally used as a food additive due to their secondary metabolites. Our study aims to assess the traditional uses of saffron by-products, generated after the harvest of saffron stigmas, by local populations of Taliouine and regions. An ethnobotanical survey was conducted with 42 local people in six communities. The survey consisted of two parts: the first part was about the demographic information of the respondents (name, age, sex, and level of education.). While the second part concerns questions that target …

Effects Of Dietary Nigella Sativa Supplementation On Growth Performance, Lipid Profile, Carcass Traits, And Immune Response Of Broiler Chickens During Summer And Winter Seasons, Zahida Jabeen, Roheela Yasmeen
Journal of Bioresource Management
The poultry industry is a major agro-based sector in Pakistan and an important source of meat protein. Nigella sativa (black cumin/kalonji) has gained attention as a natural feed additive because of its antimicrobial, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and growth-promoting properties. This study evaluated the effects of dietary Nigella sativa seed supplementation on growth performance, feed conversion ratio (FCR), lipid profile, and carcass characteristics of broiler chickens under summer and winter conditions. A total of 120 one-day-old broiler chicks were randomly assigned to two dietary treatments, with 60 birds per treatment and three replicates of 20 birds. The control group received a basal …
