A Double Layer Beam Shaping Assembly (DLBSA) was designed to produce epithermal neutrons for BNCT purposes. The Monte Carlo N-Particle eXtended program was used as the software to design the DLBSA and phantom. Distribution of epithermal neutron and gamma flux in the DLBSA and phantom and absorbed dose in the phantom were computed using the Particle and Heavy Ion Transport code System program. Testing results of epithermal neutron beam irradiation of the water phantom showed that epithermal neutrons were thermalized and penetrated the phantom up to a depth of 12 cm. The maximum value of the absorbed dose was 2 × 10-3 Gy at a depth of 2 cm in the phantom.

This research aimed to determine the potential of barite concrete as a neutron radiation shielding material in the development of boron neutron capture therapy, by obtaining its neutron attenuation coefficient. Barite concrete samples were supplied by the Center of Accelerator Science and Technology in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The experiment consisted of two parts, namely density analysis and determination of the neutron attenuation coefficient. For the latter, plutonium-beryllium was used as the neutron source, while a high purity germanium detector was used to measure the neutron radiation level. The results showed that barite concrete with a 2130 kg.m–3 density had a neutron attenuation coefficient of 0.0871 cm–3.

Cocopeat, a by-product of coconut husk, was used as adsorbent material to remove mercury (Hg) and other heavy metals (As, Ba, Cd, Pb) from the wastewater gathered from the tailings collection tank of a ball mill facility at the small scale gold mining (SSGM) area in Camarines Norte province, Philippines. Batch sorption tests were carried out using actual wastewater samples with reduced suspended solids collected after 60 min of settling and without modifying the pH and other parameters to simulate the actual condition in the field. Batch tests of water samples with an initial pH of 7.30 and adsorbent dose of 1.0 g cocopeat/L were tested for Lagergren first-order, pseudo-second-order, intra-particle diffusion, and Freundlich models to evaluate kinetic parameters and adsorption isotherms. The removal efficiencies obtained for the heavy metals after the equilibrium time of 240 min were 97.14%, 94.74%, 10.00%, 66.67%, and 27.01% for Hg, As, Ba, Cd, and Pb, respectively. The pseudo-second order kinetics model represented well the adsorption process as demonstrated with its higher correlation coefficients among the models.

Boron neutron cancer therapy is a cancer treatment method that encompasses epithermal neutron irradiation of boron delivered to tumor cells. Using collimators, fast neutrons are moderated into epithermal neutrons. When radiation is performed, neutron beams are emitted and filtered by a collimator. In this study, 12 collimators used in the BNCT process were inspected for their quality, in terms of defects or flaws. The inspected collimators were manufactured by centrifugal casting and were composed of 99% pure nickel. They had the following dimensions: height of 145 mm, outer diameter of 190 mm, inner diameter of 160 mm, and thickness of 15 mm. The inspection method used was gamma radiography testing with an Iridium-192 gamma source. Using a single wall single image technique, the collimators were exposed for 30 seconds. Six FUJI films were placed behind the object to record the resulting images, which showed light or dark areas on each collimator, the latter of which indicated porosity or flaws. Based on these images, collimators 1 and 5 were found to contain cracks, and porosity was identified in almost all of the collimators. It is suggested that both collimators with cracks be recycled, while the collimators with porosities should be investigated further to determine their suitability for boron neutron cancer therapy.

In this study, Rockwell and Brinell hardness testing was used to examine material hardness. These methods were chosen because they are easy to carry out, relatively inexpensive, and almost all sizes and shapes can be tested, in which nickel hardness before and after centrifugal casting are identified and compared. These tests enable the determination of the hardness numbers of nickel collimators using for boron neutron capture therapy. The samples were five nickel plates with a dimension of 4.5 × 4.5 cm and five collimators. The collimators were cylindrical and made using centrifugal casting. The basic principle of the hardness test was to apply loading on the object being tested. The Rockwell test was used to assess the material's hardness from the difference of indentation depth, while the Brinell test was used to determine the hardness from the diameter of indentation. From the results of this test, the hardness number of nickel before centrifugal casting is 168.53 BHN or 86.13 HRB, while the hardness number after centrifugal casting is 115.68 BHN or 64.84 HRB. It can therefore be concluded that centrifugal casting decreased nickel hardness.

Feed Supplementation with Encapsulated Indigenous Probiotic Lactic Acid Bacteria Increased Broiler Chicken Performance Pradipta, Monica Sonia Indri; Harimurti, Sri; Widodo, Widodo

The oral application of probiotics in the poultry industry is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, using a powdered probiotic supplement that can easily mix with feed is important. We investigated the effect of spray drying encapsulation on the viability of indigenous probiotic lactic acid bacteria during production and storage and evaluated broiler chicken performance after providing the supplement. Encapsulated probiotics exhibited >80% survival rates after spray drying. All bacterial species maintained up to 80% cell viability rates after exposure to 80–85°C temperatures for 15 or 30 s. The viable cell number of all encapsulated bacteria decreased over seven weeks of storage. The supplement was mixed with feed at concentrations 0.5 (T1), 1.0 (T2), and 1.5 (T3) g/kg feed and administered to 48 one-day-old Lohmann broiler chickens for 21 days; a T0 group was raised without probiotic supplementation. Probiotic supplementation affected body weight gain, live weight, and feed conversion ratio. The cecum length and duodenum and cecum weights significantly differed among the treatment groups. Probiotic supplementation was associated with improved villus development in the intestinal epithelium compared with that of the control. Thus, feed supplementation with indigenous probiotic powder stimulates intestinal epithelial proliferation in broiler chickens during the starter phase, improving their performance.
