Indonesia's enduring vision 2045 requires sustained growth driven by productivity and human resources quality. A goal attainable only through a workforce proficient in critical thinking and digital literacy. Despite the acknowledged significance of digital literacy, there is limited empirical evidence on its effects, especially concerning employment prospects. While information and digital literacy are increasingly recognized as vital competencies within organizations, existing literature has somewhat overlooked the literacy levels of employees. This study aims to explore the impact of information and digital literacy on employees' perspectives regarding the utility and user-friendliness of digital technologies, subsequently assessing the implications for their overall employability in Indonesia. A survey involving 258 Indonesians. Data collecting is conducted through questionnaires and analysis using structural equation modeling investigates the factors influencing employability using the Technology Acceptance Model. The findings reveal that in Indonesia, there is a heightened emphasis on computer literacy and information literacy in both educational and professional realms. This might be due to the Indonesian education system and industry standards prioritizing these specific digital competencies, considering them essential for navigating technology, accessing information, and effectively utilizing digital tools in the professional sphere.

This research introduces an eco-friendly green Reverse-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for detecting and quantifying meropenem trihydrate. Traditional methods use buffered solutions, gradient mobile phases, and longer retention times, but this method offers a rapid RP-HPLC technique with a C8 column and isocratic mobile phase (60% methanol, 40% ultra-pure water), eliminating the need for buffers and acetonitrile. It features a short 2.1-minute retention time and a high r² value of 0.9995. It delivers accuracy (101.1-102.3%) and precision (RSD ≤ 2%), coupled with low LOD and LOQ values of 1.72 and 5.20 µg/ml. Aqueous dilution simplifies sample preparation, reducing degradation and interference. The method is compared with an HPTLC method, showing an extended linear range (6.25-200 µg/ml for HPLC, 7.81-62.5 µg/ml for TLC) and high sensitivity, making it significant for meropenem trihydrate quality control in bulk and dosage forms.

The present investigation provides a unique, simple, selective and efficient method for the electrochemical reduction of aromatic nitro groups into amines using chitosan-hydrogen iodide salt supported graphite electrode. 3:1 tetrabutyl ammonium chloride and acetic acid mixture was used as the medium for electrolytic process and a constant voltage of 5 V applied between the modified electrodes. The reaction was found to be selective and further reduction of amines was not observed. The purity of the products was checked with HPLC and characterized using spectroscopic tools. The electrochemical synthesis resulted in moderate to good yields of amino compounds which were higher than the reduction using conventional graphite electrodes. Quaternary ammonium chloride behaved as supporting electrolyte during synthesis and the reaction did not progress in the absence of acetic acid. The redox characteristic of the process was studied by cyclic voltammetry of the reaction mixture.

This study aims at exploring the effect of four elements of an integrated marketing mix. The mix consists of both elements of the 4Ps and SIVA marketing models. These elements are product-solution, promotion-information, place-access, and price-value. A questionnaire was used to collect the required data from a sample of retailing market customers in Saudi Arabia. The total number of the questionnaires used in data analysis was 378. The study found that product-solution and place-access from customers’ perspective had significant effects on customer retention. On the other hand, price-value had a negative significant effect on customer retention, while promotion-information had no effect on customer retention. Hence, companies are called for considering products as solutions, promotion as a source of information for customers, place as an access point for such a solution, and price must be appropriate to the value that the customer gets.

Hub location is crucial for resilient and uninterrupted supply chain operations, particularly during disruptions or unforeseen events. In this paper, we propose a resilience hub location framework for Third Party Logistics (3PL) companies with two key objectives: optimizing demand flows and establishing a resilient network capable of with-standing sudden disruptions. The study aims to identify the key criteria that contribute to the successful implementation of the resilient center. The proposed structure utilizes a two-phase decision-making methodology. The first phase presents a new Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) approach called SWARA-EDAS method that evaluates and ranks potential locations based on resiliency criteria. The second phase proposes an optimization model to determine the optimal hub location. To illustrate the approach, a real-world case study of a 3PL company in Tehran is included. Due to the absence of precise demand data in the case study, a novel clustering approach is proposed to estimate the demand flow. Each cluster can be considered as a distinct demand point, and a clustering analysis involving 122 regions within Tehran is conducted, taking into account various factors such as population, economic index, accessibility to the Internet, and the number of business units. To enhance the resiliency of the network, mobile distribution centers are also deployed. These mobile centers not only provide flexibility but also serve as backup capabilities in the event of a disruption or failure at the fixed hub. The proposed structure offers practical in-sights for 3PL companies seeking to implement a resilient network structure.

This investigation demonstrates the successful synthesis of well-crystallized pristine and Ag-doped BiFeO3 microspheres using flash auto combustion technology. The effects of Ag doping on the morphology and microstructural characteristics were thoroughly examined through SEM, EDS, and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. Gas sensing experiments were performed to evaluate the response of the synthesized materials to NO gas. The results revealed a remarkable enhancement in the gas sensing capabilities of 5% wt Ag-doped BiFeO3 compared to pure BiFeO3. Specifically, the gas response towards NO was found to be 2.4 times higher for Ag-doped BiFeO3. This significant improvement can be attributed to the presence of Ag atoms within the lattice structure, which not only increased the density of holes in the material but also created additional gas molecule adsorption sites. Furthermore, the Ag dopant exhibited a catalytic effect, contributing to the excellent gas sensor performance of the material. These findings hold great promise for the development of highly sensitive and efficient gas sensors, particularly in applications where the detection of low concentrations of NO is crucial. The utilization of flash auto combustion technology in the synthesis process offers a viable route for scalable production of advanced gas sensing materials with enhanced performance.

The effect of biochar, compost, peat and wheat straw at 1 and 5% on adsorption isotherm of chlorantraniliprole, dinotefuran, bispyribac-sodium, and metribuzin was studied in clay loam soil and sandy loam soil. Biochar, compost, peat and wheat straw (at a rate of 1 % in soil) improved the adsorption capacity of chlorantraniliprole and metribuzin in sandy loam soil. The sorption coefficients are higher for chlorantraniliprole and metribuzin whereas lower for dinotefuran and bispyribac-sodium in amended soil compared to unamended sandy loam soil. There is not a clear direct correlation between Freundlich parameters as well as Kd or Koc and type of organic amendment. The sorption of all tested pesticides on biochar was increased, whereas on compost was decreased. The order of pesticides sorption in soils and different organic amendments is generally inversely proportional to their aqueous solubilites. Adsorption of chlorantraniliprole increases on the sandy loam soil amendment at the rate of 1% in the following order: peat > compost > biochar > original soil. Also, the magnitude of adsorption on soil A amendment at the rate of 5% can be arranged for dinotefuran in the order; peat > biochar > compost > original soil and for bispyribac-sodium and metribuzin peat = wheat straw > biochar > original soil.

This study examines the role of government regulation on competitiveness and its impact on the performance of companies that have been designated as bonded zones. Bonded zone regulations provide several conveniences such as: delaying the payment of taxes on imported goods, accelerating customs duties, and exempting import permits are expected to improve company performance. Until 2019, 493 textile companies had been designated as bonded zones in Indonesia. But in reality, there are still companies designated as bonded zones that have low financial performance. This research uses 204 textile companies designated as bonded zones in Indonesia. The data were obtained from questionnaires filled out by company representatives. Data were analysed using a statistical test tool. This study finds that government regulations have a greater influence on the performance of textile companies mediated by power competition. The government must make regulations that can support increased competitiveness to improve company performance.
