Identification Accuracy Of Cost-Effective Visible (Vis) To Near-Infrared (Nir) Sensor As7265x On Plastic Waste In The Philippines, Ma. Tricia Jasmin M. Ocho, Chloe Lizanne R. Bravo, Jennika Love R. Loyola, Kierra Jamielle Velandria Taroma, Leianne Nina Arabelle E. Lampayan

DLSU Senior High School Research Congress Conference Proceedings

In the Philippines, plastic waste persists as a significant issue caused by the widespread use of single-use plastics and the lack of recycling systems. The lack of proper systems made waste segregation and identification inefficient and disorganized. Past studies explain the use of VIS/NIR in plastic segregation and the potential of spectral frequencies. However, there is limited investigation into the consistency of the AS7265x sensor to address reliability in real-world conditions, where contaminants, variable lighting, and material degradation significantly impact performance. Thus, the study evaluates the effectiveness of the AS7265x triad spectroscopy sensor, incorporating machine learning algorithms. An experimental setup …

Revisiting The Dk Gandhi Sc Judgment 2024 On The Liability Of Advocates Under The Consumer Protection Law, Jeet Singh Mann

International Journal on Consumer Law and Practice

A Division Bench of the Supreme Court in Bar of Indian Lawyers v DK Gandhi concluded on 14 May 2024 that advocates are covered by a contract of personal service; thereby, no professional negligence or deficiency in service by advocates can be said to arise under the Consumer Protection Act 1986/2019. The said judgment is per incuriam as it ignores fundamentals of the contract of service, the mandate, the scheme of social welfare legislation and consumer protection law, and judgments of larger benches on accountability of professionals, including advocates, for professional negligence. This article critically examines whether advocates are covered …

From Field To Marketplace: Nil, Identity Dynamics, And Well-Being Among College Athletes, Kathryn Heinze, Landy D. Lu, Hairou Ren, Sara Soderstom Mar 2026

From Field To Marketplace: Nil, Identity Dynamics, And Well-Being Among College Athletes, Kathryn Heinze, Landy D. Lu, Hairou Ren, Sara Soderstom

Journal of Issues in Intercollegiate Athletics

The rapid expansion of name, image, and likeness (NIL) opportunities has reshaped the U.S. college sport landscape, yet limited research has examined how NIL engagement affects athlete identity and well-being. This study investigates the relationships among NIL engagement, identity salience, and stress. Survey data were collected from 351 Division I athletes across four major conferences. Regression analyses indicated that greater NIL commitment was associated with heightened athlete identity salience and increased NIL-related stress. NIL satisfaction emerged as a protective factor, predicting lower stress, whereas perceptions of fairness were not significantly related to stress. Brief open-ended survey responses provided explanatory context, …

DLSU Senior High School Research Congress Conference Proceedings

Globalization has significantly impacted economies worldwide, presenting both business opportunities and challenges. In the Philippines, Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) are vital economic drivers. However, despite their importance, MSMEs often face systemic barriers such as limited capital, restricted market access, and insufficient institutional support. This study, grounded in Sarasvathy’s Effectuation Theory—which emphasizes leveraging existing means, minimizing risks, forming partnerships, and embracing uncertainty—investigates how Filipino micro-entrepreneurs navigate decision-making under resource constraints. Unlike traditional predictive models, effectuation is more suited to uncertain environments. This research examines Filipino entrepreneurial experiences that would validate the application of effectuation principles in the Philippine context …

Physicochemical Properties Of Squash (Cucurbita Maxima L.) Seeds For Biodiesel Production, Frances Sofia A. Maddela, Lea Rose P. Inoval, Keightleen Faye L. Nicolas, Randolph M. Rosales, Hanz Hilary Villareal, June Ray O. Filler

DLSU Senior High School Research Congress Conference Proceedings

This study explores the potential of squash (Cucurbita maxima L.) seeds, an underutilized agricultural waste product, as a feedstock for biodiesel production. The resulting biodiesel was compared to a conventional biodiesel from waste soya bean cooking oil, focusing on the parameters of kinematic viscosity and flashpoint. A 1:10 (w/v) sample-to-solvent ratio was utilized through Soxhlet extraction, followed by rotary evaporation to maximize oil extraction. Subsequently, acid-base titration determines the oil’s Free Fatty Acid (FFA) content to be 2.08%, indicating its suitability for base-catalyzed transesterification. A stoichiometric minimum oil-to-methanol ratio of 1:3 and 1% w/w sodium methoxide as the catalyst were …
