Cosmetics are ingredients or mixtures of ingredients to be used on parts of the human body with the intention of cleansing, protecting to keep it in good condition and can play a role in healing and skin care. Facial cosmetic products that are currently often used are powder.

One of them is that mercury (Hg) is usually added intentionally or not very unjustified because it will be in direct contact with the skin and can be toxic. This study aims to identify the content of Mercury (Hg) in whitening surgery circulating in Batam City using the FIMS (Flow Injection Mercury System) test method. The results of research conducted on 10 whitening powder samples obtained mercury (Hg) levels with the largest average value, namely in the Px sample code with a value of 0.924 mg/kg, while the smallest average value was in the Lv sample code with a value of 0.021 mg/kg. In the test, there is a mercury content, but no one exceeds the maximum limit for cosmetics set by BPOM, which in BPOM regulations regarding metal contamination requirements in cosmetics containing mercury (Hg) is no more than 1 mg/kg, so it is safe to use.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
