  • To investigate antioxidant activity of the culture broth from submerged culture of Tremella fuciformis, we preferentially analyzed the chemical composition of culture broth, which was mainly composed of carbohydrate (296.39 mg/g) and protein (9.24 mg/g), respectively. Also, contents of polyphenols, flavonoids and flavonols were 16.63 mg/g, 9.19 mg/g and 83.74 ${\mu}/g$, respectively. Next, we examined the scavenging abilities on DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical, ABTS (2,2-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical, the reducing power, and chelating ability on ferrous ions. All antioxidant activities of the culture broth were increased in proportion to its concentrations. The $IC_{50}$ values were in order as follows ABTS radical scavenging activity < OPPH radical scavenging activity < chelating power. Accordingly, these results suggest that pharmacological function of T. fuciformis might be due to, at least partially, their protective effects against oxidation and the culture broth of T. fuciformis was free radical inhibitors or scavengers at low concentration, involving possibly in termination of free radical reaction as primary antioxidants.

  • This study aims to examine the influence of Islamic leadership and Islamic work culture on employee performance through work motivation and job satisfaction. This study was conducted at Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Walisongo Semarang, Indonesia, because so far, there is still very limited research on the relationships between Islamic leadership, work culture, and work motivation in educational personnel performance. The educational personnel performance is expected to increase at UIN Walisongo Semarang with continuous efforts to improve to survive and develop as much as possible. The population of this study was all educational personnel at UIN Walisongo Semarang, Indonesia. Of 186 people, only 127 people were involved in this study. The research method used was a survey method using primary data collected through questionnaires. This study's analysis technique employed multiple linear regression. The results uncovered that, out of the eight hypotheses proposed, six hypotheses were accepted. Islamic leadership and Islamic work culture were found to have no direct effect on employee performance. Besides, work motivation and job satisfaction became essential factors mediating Islamic leadership and Islamic work culture on employee performance. Spiritual values in leadership inspire employees to build the organization's vision and create job satisfaction, which in turn impacted employees' performance.

  • The food culture reflects the unique characteristics of the locality and the lifestyle and values of its members. So It is one of the most revealing elements of local identity. Such a food culture has an intangible form, such as memories and customs related to food, and is an area that is likely to disappear if not recorded and preserved. Based on the study of domestic and foreign cases, documentation was carried out in this study. In addition, we sought ways to manage and utilize the collected and produced records. Therefore, we suggested the method of documenting the local food culture, along with proposed managing the cultural resources of the recorded region and utilizing it in the academic and cultural aspects.

  • Safety culture is a collection of the beliefs, perceptions and values that employees share in relation to risks within an organisation. On the other hand, a resilient safety culture (RSC) means a culture with readiness of the organisation to respond effectively under stress, bounce back from shocks and continuously learn from them. RSC helps organisations to protect their interest which can be attributed to behavioural, psychological and managerial capabilities of the organization. Quantification of the degree of resilience in an organisation's safety culture can provide insights about the strong and weak links of the organisation's overall health and safety situation by identifying potential causes of system or sub-system failure. One of the major challenges of quantification of RSC is that the attributes that determine RSC need to be measured through constructs and indicators which are complex and often interrelated. In this paper, we address this challenge by applying a fault tree analysis (FTA) technique which can help analyse complex and interrelated constructs and indicators. The fault tree model of RSC is used to evaluate resilience levels of two organisations with remote and urban locations in order to demonstrate the failure path of the weak links in the RSC model.

  • An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with two Novirhabdovirus antigens (viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus, VHSV and infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus, IHNV) was used to detect specific antibodies against VHSV from olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) sera. In ELISA plates with VHSV culture supernatants (VHSV-Ag plate), optical density (OD) values for sera from olive flounder with VHS history (VHS sera) ranged from 0.64±0.36, and those of sera from fish without VHS history (non-VHS sera) ranged from 0.26±0.26. In IHNV-Ag plate, the OD values (0.43±0.28) for VHS sera were quite low compared to those in VHSV-Ag plates, while the OD values for non-VHS sera were almost similar. When the OD values for each serum were calculated by subtracting the OD values in the IHNV-Ag plate from those in the VHSV-Ag plate, the corrected OD values were significantly different between VHS sera and non-VHS sera. The results were completely in line with fish histories of VHS epizootics. It was considered that the corrected OD values may represent the true values recognized by VHSV-specific antibodies.
