This chapter intended to perceive the knowledge produced by the scientific community about tourism, innovation, and community tourism. In order to achieve this objective, a search was carried out in the SCOPUS database, which provided with more than 30 thousand articles from the year 1857 to 2019. It is noticed, however, that the publications that report community tourism and innovation are scarcer, which demonstrates the lack of research within the three areas. It is noticed that for future works it is interesting to insert other sources of research, such as Sicielo and Latinex, and give more visibility to productions in other languages, which gives a broader understand of other publications outside the English-speaking world.

Food Matrices

Since millennia, humankind has exploited microbial diversity associated to give food matrices in order to obtain fermented foods and beverages, resulting in products with improved quality and extended shelf life. This topic has received deserved and continuous interest in the scientific community, for the reason of its significance as a driver of innovation in the food and beverage sector. In this review paper, using sourdough as a model matrix, we provide some insights into the field, testifying the relevance as a transdisciplinary subject. Firstly, we encompassed the prokaryotic and eukaryotic microbial diversity associated with the sourdough ecosystems. The importance of this micro-biodiversity in the light of flour-related chemical diversity was examined. Finally, we highlighted the increasing interest in microbial-based applications oriented toward biocontrol solution in the field of sourdough-based products (i.e., bread).

Aims: The aim of this study is present a general overview of the journal from 1965 to 2018 using bibliometric indicators. Methods: The data analyzed in this study, was extracted from the Scopus database. The information was exported in RIS file format to the Harzing’s Publish or Perish and VOSviewer software for data analysis. Results: The number of documents published in APH during the study period was 1868, the most frequently published document type was „original article”. Articles published APH were cited 2555 times overall, averaging 1.37 citations per each paper. The highest number of articles published in collaboration was in 2007 and 2018 (16.7%). Overall, the period between 1981-2000 was the most fruitful, while the following years saw a decline in the number of articles. Clusters and co-occurrence networks of the authors keyowrds of the published documents were generated. Conclusion: APH manages to reach a very wide audience of the Hungarian scientific community of researchers. Additionally, an evolution on the research topics covered by the journal could be observed, providing a contemporary overview of the pharmaceutical sciences. The submission of additional articles to the journal is highly encouraged to widen the reach of this journal towards international audiences.

The problem of “predatory” publishing has received well-deserved attention both in the scientific community and among the S&T managers. Previous studies have shown that this problem has a permanent and global scale and is particularly acute in certain scientific areas, including economic sciences. This research compiled a list of 45 sources, excluded from the Scopus database due to their violation of scientific ethics. Starting from 2015 Russian economists annually publish at least 1,000 papers in “toxic” sources, and on average for the period 2010–2019, almost every third publication of economics with the Russian affiliation was published in “predatory” journals. By the absolute number of “trash” publications during this period, Russia was the second only to India. In the formed “black” sources list, there are several journals with a clear focus on Russian economists — the share of their publications in the portfolio has exceeded 50%. The estimations show that the scale of the annual damage caused by the publication in “predatory” publications of Russian economists is comparable to the annual scientific budget of a fairly large economic university.

Abstract Di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) is the phthalate ester frequently utilized as a plasticizer, commonly found in cosmetics, packaging materials, moreover, it has carcinogenic and mutagenic effect on humans. In the current study, we isolated the soil bacterium Rhodococcus aetherivorans PFS1 and to assess its DEHP degradation ability in various environmental conditions. The strain PFS1 was isolated from paddy field soil and identified by the 16S rRNA sequencing analyses. The strain PFS1 was examined for its biodegradation ability of DEHP at various pH, temperature, salt concentration, glucose concentration, and high and low concentration of DEHP. Moreover, the biodegradation of DEHP at a contaminated soil environment by strain PFS1 was assessed. Further, the metabolic pathway of DEHP degradation by PFS1 was analyzed by HPLC-MS analysis. The results showed that the strain PFS1 effectively degraded the DEHP at neutral pH and temperature 30 °C, moreover, expressed excellent DEHP degradation at the high salt concentration (up to 50 g/L). The strain PFS1 was efficiently degraded the different tested phthalate esters (PAEs) up to 90%. Significantly removed the DEHP contamination in soil along with native organisms which are present in soil up to 94.66%, nevertheless, the PFS1 alone degraded the DEHP up to 87.665% in sterilized soil. According to HPLC-MS analysis, DEHP was degraded into phthalate (PA) by PFS1 strain via mono (2-ethylehxyl) phthalate (MEHP), then PA was utilized for cell growth. These results suggest that R. aetherivorans PFS1 has excellent potential to degrade DEHP at various environmental conditions especially in contaminated paddy field soil.

This study aims to investigate the main national and international theoretical contributions on Public Governance, with a focus on Intellectual Property. The methodology used involved exploratory analysis, based on bibliometric research. The data were collected through the Capes Periodical Portal, namely in the Scopus databases, consisting of a database of citations and neutral abstracts curated by independent sources of specialists in the subject. The obtained result indicated that the combination of the searched terms, "Public Governance" and "Intellectual Property", as a filter in all fields. As a result, it is observed that there are 15 countries more prominent in research on Public Governance and Intellectual Property, led by the USA, standing out with 22.5% of publications. Of the 13 (thirteen) largest areas of knowledge, it can be seen that the three largest areas represent 78% of the publications in the Scopus database. In relation to the largest universities found among the 15 (fifteen), potentially 3 (three) stand out with greater individual percentage representativeness in the publications on the theme of this research. Finally, it was identified that this research contributes to researchers and the scientific community in general, while allowing the reproduction of future research, using other bases, and thus increasing knowledge.

ABSTRACT In Brazil, scientific performance of researchers is one important criteria for decision-making in grant allocation. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate and compare the profile of 82 seniors' investigators (graded as level 1A-D) which were receiving CNPq (National Council for Scientific and Technological Development) productivity grant in Pharmacology, by analyzing the pattern of citation of their papers and h-index. Total documents, citations (with and without self-citations) and h-index (with and without self-citations) were retrieved from the Scopus database. The results indicated a clear difference among researchers from the higher categories (1A and 1B) in most of the parameters analyzed. However, no noticeable differentiation was found between researchers from grant category 1C and 1D. The results presented here may inform the scientific community and the grant agencies on the profile of PQ 1(A-D) fellows of Pharmacology, and may help to define new differences within CNPq grant categories, and consequently, a better allocation of grants.
