Ali ASLAN

This study presents the biopharmaceutical potential and bioactive composition of Xanthoria lichens (X. candelaria, X. elegans, X. parietina) that wildly grown and traditionally utilized as medicine in North Eastern Anatolia, Turkey, which has specific microclimatic and ecological zones. Chromatographic findings revealed significant levels of parietin compound (35 to 49 mg/g extract), low levels of various fatty acids and a volatile compound; α-terpinene in the extracts. The extracts exhibited pronounced antioxidant potential through reducing and scavenging mechanisms; FCR: 33-38 mg gallic acid ...Более

Rita İSMAİLOVA | Gülşat MUHAMETJANOVA

In the current work, systems based on mini/micro PCs that can support the corporate learning management practices have been evaluated. As a learning management system, the Moodle platform was chosen. The evaluation was based on the end users' experience. For measurement, carried out in three dimensions, a questionnaire was distributed among students enrolled in the blended course, offered with online support. According to results of the study, the installation of Moodle on micro PC was evaluated as slow. However, students agree that given the price of the device, it can be used as an alternati ...Более

Traditional Values and Institutional Quality = Традиционные ценности и качество институтов

Nurbek MADMAROV

Why do similar economic and political institutions function differently in various cultures? This paper tries to identify potentially important factors related to the institutional quality. We investigate the relationship between cultures, cultural dimensions: non-tradition in particular, and formal institutions to explain differences in the quality of institutions around the world. We use a measure of traditional values, structured by Inglehart and Baker, from the World Values Survey, to extend the literature on the determinants of institutions' quality. We show that differences in traditiona ...Более

SOLUTION OF RATIONAL DIFFERENCE EQUATION

Burak OĞUL

The behavior of the solutions of the following system of difference equations is examined, [Formula Presented] where the initial conditions are positive real numbers. The initial conditions of the equation are arbitrary positive real numbers. Also, we discuss and illustrate the stability of the solutions in the neighborhood of the critical points and the periodicity of the considered equations.
