Abstract

Hymenopteran order is an order of insects that is useful for pollinating plants, producing honey and wax and can kill insects that harm plants (pests). This study aims to determine the results of collections of Hymenoptera parasitoid insects from forest stands and rice fields. The research was carried out in January-March 2019. The sampling locations were carried out in two types of areas, namely forest stands and rice fields. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the two orders of insects that had a dominant number from the collection were the Order Diptera and Order Hymenoptera. The number of Hymenoptera insects in the forest stands and rice fields were 1.586 individuals and 2.179 individuals, respectively, with a total of 21 families of parasitoid insects. The use of separators in the collection of Hymenoptera parasitoid insects has several advantages compared to using other insect net, namely making it easier to collect insects and the number of insects caught is also higher.

Abstract

Early identification is needed to predict the condition of patients who are at risk of worsening symptoms to become more severe. Simple laboratory tests such as measurement of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio are known to be used as factors to determine the patient's prognosis in various clinical situations. The purpose of this study was to analyze the value of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio as a predictor factor for COVID-19. This study is retrospective, using medical record data of 327 Covid-19 patients at the Dr Chasan Boesoirie Hospital Ternate from April to September 2021. Subjects were classified as not severe and severe COVID-19. The value of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio was determined based on the results of a routine blood test (sysmex XN-1000B3 BF). Data were analyzed using SPSS version 16, Pearson's test to determine the relationship between NLR and severity and using the ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) curve to determine the strength of the relationship with the Cut-off value, p < 0.05 and AUC to determine the sensitivity and specificity of NLR to COVID-19 severity. Results: From 327 subjects consisting of 229 non-severe and 98 severe, the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the non-severe (3.45±2.02) was significantly different from the severe (9.73±5.64) (p < 0.00). The ROC (Receiver operating Characteristic) curve shows that the NLR has a sensitivity of 83%, specificity of 82% with a cut-off of 3.5 with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 88.2% and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 83.6%. The results of this study can be used as a reference for determining clinical prognosis using neutrophil ratio data.

Abstract

Tofu industrial waste has the potential to become an environmental pollutant when not treated optimally, so it needs proper treatment to minimize pollution. Fish farmers are expected to be able to innovate in terms of fish cultivation, so that harvest yields can be optimal to meet food needs. Furthermore, fermentation technology by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Rhyzopus oligosporus are potential fungi that can increase the nutritional value of waste. This research aimed to produce an appropriate technology to produce fish feed pellets from fermented Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Rhyzopus oligosporus based on waste. This research method was designed in the form of research using a completely randomized design with 4 treatments (P0 without microbes); (P1 given Saccharomyces cerevisiae (2 gr) and Rhyzopus oligosporus (2 gr); (P2 Saccharomyces cerevisiae (1 gr) and Rhyzopus oligosporus (3 gr); (P3 Saccharomyces cerevisiae (3 gr) and Rhyzopus oligosporus (1 gr) with 3 replication.  The research results showed that: there was an effect of variation in microbial community on the nutrient content of the Fermented Fish Feed Pellets with Tofu Waste. Treatment P1 gave the highest protein and β -glucan content. Production of fermented fish feed pellets waste-based feed for catfish is the implementation of waste product, which can be further developed to meet the quality of the feed produced.

Abstract

Low feed efficiency is often an obstacle in duck farming business. The morphology of the duck's beak which is only suitable for muddy habitats causes ducks to be often inefficient in consuming feed in the form of mash, crumble or pellet. Thus, duck mie (a noodle-shaped and earthworm-like duck feed) has been innovated which is the natural food for ducks in their natural habitat (rice fields and swamp areas). The main ingredients for making duck mie are cheap and potential local ingredients, such as; golden snail, rice bran, corn flour and cassava flour. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which the provision of duck mie in the ration affects the productivity of Peking ducks. The method used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) using 4 treatments with 4 replications, the research material in the form of 80 DOD Peking ducks with treatment aged 1-7 days given 100% formulated feed. Age 8-14 days adapted to 95% formulated feed + 5% Duck Mie. Age 15 – 56 days given feed formulated according to treatment T0 = 100% formulated feed, T1 = 90% formulated feed + 10% Duck Mie, T2 = 80% formulated feed + 20% Duck Mie, and T3 = 70% formulated feed + 30 % Duck Mie. The data obtained then analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA), then tested using Duncan's Distance Test. The research parameters were feed intake, average daily gain (ADG), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and feed efficiency. Based on the study, it was found that the provision of duck mie in the ration did not show a significant effect (P<0.05) based on consumption, ADG, efficiency and feed conversion ratio of ducks.

Abstract

Kerandangan Nature Reserve is an area with important ecological aspects in the fields of economy, culture and education. One of its ecological components is amphibians. Previous research was conducted with brief observations so that the data were not sufficient to provide an overview of community fluctuations due to dependent and independent density factors. The study aim is to analyze the dynamics of the amphibian community during the period 2013 - 2019. The field survey was conducted in 3 different years, namely 2013, 2016, and 2019. Analysis of community dynamics was carried out by comparing the composition and species diversity indexes. Whether or not there are differences in the amphibian community is determined by One Way ANOVA. We found that during the period 2013-2019 there was a change in species composition. However, when compared with the results of research in 2011, the species composition is same as the data for 2019. Species richness is relatively stable unless there is a change in data for 2013 and 2016 with the discovery of Ingerophrynus biporcatus and Kaloula baleata so that the species richness increases to 4. The results of the One Way ANOVA test showed that there was no significant difference in diversity (p > 0.05) during the 2013-2019 timeframe.

Abstract

The Pengsong tourism area is a mountainous ecotourism area with beautiful natural scenery and attractive biodiversity, including the existence of the Macaca fascicular population. The type of Macaca fascicularis food is not yet known in the tourist area of Mount Pengsong, including carrying capacity of the population. The objectives of study are to determine the types of plants eaten and the types of food provided by visitors as well as the nutritional content of the food consumed by monkeys in the area, and the behaviours of Macaca fascicular as a management basis to support ecotourism in Mount Pengsong. The data collection was conducted using the “broad survey and line transect” method in the morning, afternoon and evening. The food data collected were include sources of food, drink, weathers, temperatures, moistures, slopes, altitude above sea level, and human activities in the vicinity. The behavioral data of Macaca fascicular studied were daily activities, mealtime, playing, resting, breeding, population structure, population disruptors, social patterns (solitary/pairs/groups) and cruising areas. As a result, the monkey diet in the form of plants was available around the tourist area as many as 23 species, 5 types of animals, 10 types of plant production in agricultural areas, and nine types of food provided by visitors. Nutritional needs and elements can be fulfilled from the availability of food sources and will be even more perfect by getting other food sources provided by visitors. Population control is needed so that the number of populations is in accordance with the carrying capacity of food sources. Macaca fascicular consumes a lot of plant species and is highly dependent on the availability of food in its environment, the food provided by visitors is favored by monkeys and provides good nutritional value. The Macaca fascicular population needs to be controlled so that it is in accordance with the carrying capacity of its environment and avoid damaging horticultural crops and plantation plants around the tourist area.
