Manik H, Yurmiaty H, Asmara IY, Handarto, Iskandar J, Partasasmita R. 2018. Wattled Brushturkey hunting system in the Sigim and Sinaitousi communities in the buffer zone of the Arfak Mountain Nature Reserve, West Papua, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 849-856. Illegal hunting is still the cause of the decline of wildlife populations in nature. This is particularly the case with protected wildlife and endemic species, such as the Wattled Brushturkey in Palau West Papuan. Thus, research needs to be done on the hunting system at the site. The aim of this research was to know Wattled Brushturkey (Aepypodius arfakianus) hunting system by Sigim and Sinaitousi villagers, Arfak Mountains of West Papua. The research used descriptive method with field observation technique and semi-structured interviews. The results showed that the main purpose of hunting Wattled Brushturkey conducted by the Sigim and Sinaitousi communities is to consume the meat, while a part of egg hunting is for sale. The hunting by the two villagers was generally done in groups. The frequency of hunting depends on needs and demand. Hunting is done using snares, dogs, and combinations of snares and dogs. The tools used are snares, machetes, air rifles, arrows nad bows. The modern tools such as gun have been used in both villages. The hunting of Wattled Brushturkey begins in the morning and continues until late afternoon. The location of hunting is usually primary forest, secondary forest of former garden and river basin.

Abstract

Malini DM, Madihah, Kamilawati F, Ratningsih N, Alipin K, Iskandar J. 2017. Topical treatment of ointment containing ethanol extract of Archidendron pauciflorum fruit peel on the wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Nusantara Bioscience 9: 306-311. Diabetic wounds lead to severe tissue damage and are difficult to cure. One alternative medicine known well by local Indonesian communities to treat diabetic wounds is the fruit peel of djengkol. This study aimed to evaluate the ointment containing ethanol extract of djengkol fruit peel to accelerate wound healing process in the skin of streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. The method was experimental using completely randomized design with six treatments and four replications. Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin 180 mg/kg BW. Mice with blood glucose level ≥150 mg/dL were used for diabetic mice models. The incision wound created at dorsolateral region of shaven skin at ±1 cm2 using sterile scissors. The ointment containing extract was applied topically to the diabetic mice wounds at concentration of 5%, 10% and 15%, as well as Betadine® as the reference group. The ointment basis was applied to the wound of diabetic mice as a positive control and to the wound of non-diabetic mice as a negative control. The treatment was done twice a day for 14 days. The results showed that topical application of ointment containing ethanol extract of djengkol fruit peel at concentration of 10% gave significant recovery (p<0.05) on the wounded skin by the enhancement of re-epithelization and granulation tissue, as well as the increase of capillary number and collagen density which were higher than other treatments and comparable to negative control group. It was concluded that the topical application of ointment containing ethanol extract of djengkol fruit peel can support the healing of diabetic wounds.
