Abstract

Lead or Plumbum (Pb) is a type of heavy metal-based chemicals that our body discontinue require for its proper functioning. When these chemicals enter the body in excessive amounts, they can harm the body's systems and increase the risk of cancer. Here we use albino mice Mus musculus. These small mammals often used in laboratorium research.This study to learn the effect of lead administration on the epididymal epithelium of albino Mus musculus mice. There are 18 mice divided into 3 treatment groups with 6 mice in each group (n=6). Every mouse in each group was given an intraperitoneal injection of Pb(NO³)² at a dose of 0 mgPb/kgBB, 5 mgPb/kgBBand 10 mgPb/kgBB. After 35 days, the treated mice were euthanized using the neck dislocation technique, and the epididymal epithelium was examined histologically. The findings of the study indicate that there was a reduction in the thickness of the epididymal epithelium, or thinning of the epididymal epithelium, in the group that received Pb when compared to the control group. The average tubule diameter in the control group was 7.125 mm, in 5 mbPb/kgBB it was 5.2083 mm, whereas in the 10 mgPb/kgBB treatment group, it was 4.3333 mm. This means that there was a significant difference in the thickness of the epididymal epithelium between the control group and the group given 5 mgPb/kgBB, 10 mgPb/kgBB. The results suggest that the administration of Pb is not safe for the epididymal epithelium at a dosage of 5mgPb/kgBB and 10 mgPb/kgBB

Abstract

The research on the inventory of invasive alien species in the area of Universitas Indo Global Mandiri (UIGM) aims to identify the alien and invasive species present on campus, so that the potential impacts of their presence can be assessed. The method used in this activity is the exploration method, where the researcher will explore the area around the campus to collect data on plants. The results obtained from this research indicate that there are 77 plant species consisting of 40 families. The families with the highest number of species are Apocynaceae and Araceae (7 species). Among the species identified, there are 42 alien species, 26 native species, and 9 invasive species.

Abstract

Water Buffalo Bubalus bubalis are an essential livestock species in Indonesia. However, mass mortality events have been reported in recent years, highlighting the need for better understanding and management of the causes of these cases. This study presents the first comprehensive retrospective analysis of B. bubalis mortality events in Indonesia between 2010 and 2025. Data were compiled from scientific reports, government records, media coverage, and citizen science platforms. A total of 34 documented events were identified, with most attributed to infectious diseases, particularly Septicemia Epizootica (SE) caused by Pasteurella multocida. Environmental stressors such as floods and droughts, along with parasitic infections like Surra, were also contributing factors. Mortality peaks occurred in 2013 and 2023, each involving hundreds of deaths in single outbreaks. These findings underscore the urgent need for region-specific disease surveillance, vaccination programs, and improved husbandry practices.

Abstract

Indonesia hosts a remarkable diversity of freshwater fishes, including numerous endemic wild Betta Betta spp. (Anabantiformes: Osphronemidae). However, the rise of e-commerce has facilitated unregulated online trade of wild Betta species. This study investigates the diversity, conservation status, and trade dynamics of wild Betta species between 1–21 October 2025, in Indonesia’s three largest online marketplaces: Shopee, Tokopedia, and Lazada. A total of 38 wild Betta species were identified, including five Critically Endangered, eleven Endangered, and seven Vulnerable taxa. The trade was dominated by species from Sumatra and Kalimantan, which together accounted for over 85% of endemic taxa. Market analysis revealed a positive correlation between rarity and price, with Endangered and Not Assessed species commanding the highest average prices. The presence of Critically Endangered species such as Betta hendra and B. burdigula indicates ongoing extraction from the wild despite conservation risks. Furthermore, nearly 26% of traded species remain Data Deficient or Not Assessed, reflecting critical knowledge gaps that hinder management and policy enforcement. The findings underscore the urgent need for stronger regulation of digital wildlife trade, improved conservation assessments, and promotion of captive breeding programs to reduce wild collection pressure.
