    Department of Pharmaceutical Technology Author: M S b S , Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Study and Evaluation of Topically Applied Ceramides onto Disrupted Skin Barrier Skin is the largest organ of the human body and serves several key functions, such as protection against external influences and regulation of body temperature. Healthy skin is able to maintain the integrity and stability of the organism due to its complex structure. The skin is composed of several layers of cells, including the stratum corneum (SC), which forms the main protective barrier. Ceramides (CER) are one of the main types of barrier lipids found in the SC. These lipid molecules, along with other lipids, create a hydrophobic matrix that protects the skin from dehydration and other external influences. The lack of CER in the skin barrier leads to the disruption of its function and the worsening of the skin condition. This is associated with many diseases, such as dermatitis, psoriasis, and others. The study of CER in the SC is important to understand the mechanisms of skin protection and to develop new therapeutic approaches for the treatment of skin diseases. Topical administration of barrier lipids, especially CER, is one possible treatment route for skin diseases. Therefore, the aim of this work was to prepare..

    Abstract Production of quality wood is a big problem in forestry plantation since trees grown in plantation of some high value temperate and tropical hardwood species tend to produce low value, short butt logs and bolts due to crooked stems, low fork heights and delayed shedding of lower branches. Result from existing Acacia plantation in Malaysia indicated that most existing Acacia plantation trees especially Acacia auriculiformis and Acacia mangium, fork very heavily which leads to the formation of multiple leaders more than one and some are fork so close to the ground that they will produce little to no merchantable wood. In this context, a research study was initiated to select and recommend the best performing tree species or provenance suited for timber production in Malaysia with respect to growth and other characteristics. Species/provenance/progeny test was conducted on four species of Acacia namely, A. mangium, A. auriculiformis, A. crassicarpa and A. aulococarpa, each with 4 provenances originated from Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Queensland (QL). The growth performance of the provenances was monitored in terms of some quantitative and qualitative characteristics to evaluate the genetic variation and growth performance of a base breeding population. 20 progenies for each species were selected and randomly planted with 16 trees representing each progenies in a trial plot laid out in a randomized complete block * Corresponding author. M. S. Kumar et al. 218 design consisting of four blocks as replication. The study showed that there were significant different (p < 0.05) between species, provenance and progenies for their growth performance. Generally with regard to growth, A. mangium performed better compared to other Acacia species in all of the aspect tested and it was followed by A. crassicarpa, A. aulococarpa and A. auriculiformis. There were also significant differences between provenance within regions and progenies within provenances in all quantitative and qualitative traits tested in this study. Generally, provenance and progenies selected from PNG excelled those from QL both in quantitative and qualitative characteristics. The top performing progenies of Acacia species are CG 1854 of (Bensbach WP) and KN000107 (SW of Boset WP) of A. mangium, BVG2609 (Bensbach WP) of A. crassicarpa, BVG 00835 (WP Morehead) and MM1016 (Arufi E Morehead WP) of A. aulococarpa and JSL363 (Wenlock River) and BVG 2657 (Bansbach) of A. auriculiformis

    Relevance of the problem: The study of junior students' hubristic motives is a new area of scientific research, so the study of the features of younger students' self-regulation and personality traits, depending on their dominant hubristic motivation, is relevant. Aim: study of the features of younger students' self-regulation, depending on their dominant hubristic motivation. Methodology of the research: The projective methodology "Fairy tale Kingdom", the Fairy Tale Test (by K. Colacclaw), methodology "Style of Self-Regulation of Children's Behavior - SSRCB M2" V. I. Morosanova, Methodology "Labyrinths" (author – M. S. Kurek, a modification of the method of F. Hoppe and M. Yuknat), Technique of diagnosing the plannedness of activity. The sample included 204 students (3-d and 4-th forms) of Gymnasium № 169 in Kharkiv. Results of the research. As a result of our study the differences in the indicators of self-regulation of primary school pupils depending on the type of hubristic motivation were determined. The ability to modeling, programming, evaluating, flexibility and autonomy are higher in schoolchildren with «Balanced Hubristic Motives». «Dominance of the pursuit of Superiority» supposes the lowest level of modeling, evaluation of the results and autonomy of behavior and the highest indicators of flexibility of behavior. The ability of programming is developed below in schoolchildren with «Expressed dominance of pursuit for superiority». Indicators of the ability of planning activity and responsibility of self-regulation in schoolchildren with various types of hubristic motivation are not different. The differences in the indicators of self-regulation of primary school pupils depending on the level of aspiration were set. In schoolchildren with inflated level of aspirations, the lowest indicators of planning and modeling capabilities, as well as autonomy of behavior are revealed. Planning, modeling, evaluation of results and flexibility of behavior are highest in schoolchildren with understated level of aspiration. Indicators of the ability of programming activity and flexibility and responsibility of self-regulation in schoolchildren with various levels of aspiration are not different. The schoolchildren with an infantile level of aspirations and moderate dominance of the desire for superiority have the lowest planning capabilities. Pupils with an infantile and inflated levels of aspirations and low hubristic motivation have the lowest modeling capabilities. Striving for superiority which characterized the first and second profiles on the background of inflated level of aspiration causes the highest level of evaluating of activity results. Pupils with inflated level of aspirations and low hubristic motivation have the lowest flexibility. Pupils with inflated level of aspirations and moderate level of striving for superiority have the lowest flexibility. Schoolchildren with inflated level of aspirations and moderate level of striving for superiority have the lowest responsibility. Inflated level of aspiration supposes the highest level of plannedness in schoolchildren. Pupils with inflated level of aspirations and balanced hubristic motives have the lowest plannedness abilities. Актуальність і мета дослідження: вивчення губристичних мотивів молодших школярів є новим напрямком наукових розвідок, тому дослідження особливостей саморегуляції та особистісних рис молодших школярів в залежності від їх домінуючої губристичної мотивації є актуальним і визначило мету дослідження. Методи і вибірка дослідження: проективна методика «Казкове царство», проективний казковий тест, методика «Стиль саморегуляції поведінки дітей – ССПД М2», методика дослідження рівня домагань «Лабіринти». Вибірку склали 204 молодших школяра ХГ №169. Результати і висновки: В результаті нашого дослідження визначалися відмінності в показниках саморегуляції учнів початкових шкіл залежно від типу гербідної мотивації. Можливість моделювання, програмування, оцінки, гнучкості та автономії вища у школярів з «збалансованими рубцями». «Домінування прагнення до переваги» передбачає найнижчий рівень моделювання, оцінки результатів та автономії поведінки та найвищих показників гнучкості поведінки. Здатність програмування розроблена нижче у школярів з «вираженим домінуванням переслідування для переваги». Показники здатності планування діяльності та відповідальності саморегуляції в школярі з різними видами горбної мотивації не відрізняються. Встановлено відмінності у показниках саморегуляції учнів початкових шкіл залежно від рівня аспірації. У школярів з завищеним рівнем прагнень виявлено найнижчі показники планування та моделювання, а також автономію поведінки. Планування, моделювання, оцінка результатів та гнучкість поведінки найвища в школярів з заниженим рівнем аспірації. Показники здатності активності та гнучкості та гнучкості та відповідальності саморегуляції в школярі з різними рівнями прагнення не відрізняються. Школярі з дитячим рівнем прагнень і помірне домінування прагнення до переваги мають найменші можливості планування. Учні з інфантичними та завищеними рівнями прагнень та низької горбної мотивації мають найнижчі можливості моделювання. Прагнучи до переваги, яка характеризується першим і другим профілями на тлі завищеного рівня аспірації, викликає найвищий рівень оцінки результатів діяльності. Учні з завищеним рівнем прагнень та низької горбистичної мотивації мають найнижчу гнучкість. Учні з завищеним рівнем прагнень і помірним рівнем прагнення до переваги мають найнижчу гнучкість. Школярі з завищеним рівнем прагнень та помірним рівнем прагнення до переваги мають найнижчу відповідальність. Надутий рівень аспірації передбачає найвищий рівень запланованості у школярів. Учні з завищеним рівнем прагнень та збалансованих рубців мають найнижчі заплановані здібності
