Luka eksisi adalah luka yang permukaan kulit dan lapisan bawahnya akan terpotong sampai kedalaman yang bervariasi dapat terjadi secara sengaja atau tidak sengaja. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh chitosan kulit udang terhadap kepadatan kolagen dalam proses penyembuhan luka eksisi pada tikus putih. Sebanyak dua puluh ekor tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) jantan dibagi ke dalam lima kelompok perlakuan yaitu K- luka eksisi dengan pemberian basis salep, K+ (luka eksisi+10% povidone iodine), P1 (luka eksisi+salep chitosan kulit udang 1.5%), P2 (luka eksisi+udang salep kulit kitosan 2.5%), dan P3 (luka eksisi+kitosan kulit udang 5%). Hasil perhitungan persentase kepadatan kolagen dianalisis oleh Kruskal-Wallis yang menunjukkan perbedaan signifikan (p<0.05) dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Mann-Whitney U. Kelompok K+, K- dan P1 memiliki perbedaan signifikan dalam kepadatan kolagen pada P2, dan kelompok P3 (p<0.05). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini kitosan berpengaruh terhadap kepadatan kolagen dengan dosis 5%.
Background: According to the Indonesian Central Bureau of Statistics, broiler meat production in 2020 decreased by 6.3% from the previous year. Several factors can influence chicken productivity, one of which is cage management. The cage has a vital role in success because the comfort of the cage will result in maximum chicken productivity. Aim: To compare the productivity of broiler chickens reared using Closed House and Open House cage systems in the same partnership based on the value of Feed Conversion Ratio, Mortality, and Index Performance. Methods: Data collection was carried out using the literature and observative methods, namely direct observation on two farms using a Closed House and an Open House cage system in Trenggalek Regency in April 2021. Results: A FCR value of Closed House system cages has an FCR value of 1.416, whereas the Open House system was 1.605. The mortality of broiler chickens reared in the Open House system was 842, and in the closed house system was 572. The index performance of broiler chickens raised in the Closed House system was 366.5, whereas in an Open House system, the index performance was 319.4. Conclusion: The Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR), Mortality, and Index Performance Index (IP) value of broiler chickens reared in the Closed House system cage was higher than those in the Open House system cage.
This study aimed to determine the prevalence rate and to identify parasites (endoparasite and ectoparasite) on Java Langur and Silvery Gibbon, these primates are rehabilitated in The Aspinall Foundation Indonesia Program. This research was conducted from February until October 2020. The fecal examination methods used in this research were native method and ovatec flotation method, while the ectoparasite examination used native method, mounting method, and scraping method. Based on a total of 68 samples examined, the result showed that 10 samples were positive infected by Trichuris trichiura and 2 samples were infested by Pedicinus ancoratus. The conclusion of this study indicated that the prevalence rate of Trichuris trichiura was 21.1% and Pedicinus ancoratus was 5.3% on 19 West Java Langurs, the prevalence rate of Trichuris trichiura was 3.3% and Pedicinus ancoratus was 3.3% on 30 East Java Langurs, the prevalence rate of Trichuris trichiura was 26.3% and no infestation of Pedicinus ancoratus was found on 19 Silvery Gibbons.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efektivitas pemberian ekstrak daun Afrika (Vernonia amygdalina) secara topikal terhadap kepadatan kolagen dalam penyembuhan luka insisi pada tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus). Dua puluh ekor tikus putih dibagi secara acak ke dalam lima kelompok, yaitu kontrol negatif (K-) yang diberi basis salep, kontrol positif (K+) yang diberi salep povidone iodine 10%, kelompok perlakuan (P1, P2, P3) yang diberi perlakuan dengan salep ekstrak daun Afrika 16,8%, 28%, dan 39,2%. Perlakuan diberikan secara topikal pada lokasi luka insisi sebanyak dua kali sehari selama empat belas hari. pada hari keempat belas tikus dieuthanasi dan daerah insisi dieksisi untuk preparasi histopatologi. Data yang didapatkan dianalisis menggunakan Kruskal-Wallis dengan SPSS 20. Hasil uji menunjukkan p=0,077 yang berarti tidak terdapat perbedaan yang nyata (p>0,05) antara keseluruhan perlakuan. Berdasarkan hasil tersebut rata-rata P1 menunjukkan hasil skoring kepadatan kolagen tertinggi dibandingkan perlakuan yang lain. Kesimpulan penelitian ini yaitu bahwa daun Afrika (Vernonia amygdalina) tidak efektif meningkatkan kepadatan kolagen dalam penyembuhan luka insisi pada tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus).
This study aimed to evaluate the influence of bull age on fresh semen traits of Bali bulls. A total of 316 semen samples collected from six Bali bulls aged at 4, 6, and 8 years old (2 bulls of each age) were involved in this study. Fresh semen traits measured were semen volume, sperm concentration, total sperm, sperm motility, and total motile sperm. Data of fresh semen traits were analyzed using analysis of variance, followed by Duncan test to separate means. Additionally, data of semen volume, sperm concentration, and sperm motility were subjected to the Pearson correlation test. The result showed that the semen volume of Bali bulls increased from 4 to 6 years old (P<0.05) but then tended to decrease in 8 years old bulls. However, sperm concentration remained unchanged (P>0.05) among different ages. At 6-years old, Bali bulls had the highest total sperm (P<0.05), but their sperm motility was the lowest (P<0.05). Furthermore, the total motile sperm of Bali bulls did not differ among bull age (P>0.05). Negative correlations were found between semen volume with sperm concentration (P<0.01) and motility (P<0.01), while a positive correlation was recorded between sperm concentration and motility (P<0.05). It could be concluded that the age had an unclear pattern effect on fresh semen traits of Bali bulls at 4, 6, and 8 years old. At these ages, the Bali bulls had equal fresh semen production potency to be used in artificial insemination programs.
