Abstract

A Virus is an individual that cannot be described as an animal or a plant. If animals and plants contain two nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), on the contrary, the virus only has one of them. These nucleic acids can stimulate a complete virus replication cycle. The virus can only replicate and live on a living host if the host is finally dead, then the virus will move on the cells that are still alive. The virus has genetic material which is a protective protein coat called a capsid. Viruses can infect various varieties of organisms, both eukaryotes (animals, plants, protists, and fungi) and prokaryotes (bacteria and archaea). The Virus infects bacteria known as bacteriophage (phage). The Virus can cause serious diseases for humans such as AIDS, HIV, rabies, etc. Dogs belonging to Canidae family are the sibling of wolves, foxes and raccoon dogs. Among all members of Canidae, dogs have the most closely related to wolves which are the ancestors of dogs. The Canidae family generally has a small elongated body, sharp ear and muzzle, sharp smelling, can run fast and can swim. Dogs are human best friends. While taking care of the dogs, they can be attacked by various diseases. The closeness of the relationship between humans and dogs raises the potential for disease transmission, especially zoonosis and pandemics viruses.

Abstract

The condition of eating places such as street vendors will determine the level of food hygiene, including the water used to wash food utensils. This study aimed to determine the number of microbes and identify Escherichia coli and Salmonella sp. on the water that was used to wash tableware by street vendors around UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Water samples before and after being used to wash tableware were obtained from 4 street vendors. The number of microbes in the sample was tested by the Total Plate Count (TPC) and Most Probable Number (MPN) methods, Escherichia coli was identified using Eosin Methylene Blue Agar (EMB) media, and Salmonella sp. was identified using Salmonella-Shigella agar (SSA) and Triple Sugar Iron agar (TSIA) media. Based on the results of TPC test, the water sample before being used to wash tableware had the lowest and highest values that were 3.0 x 102 Cfu/ml and 9.8 x 105 Cfu/ml, respectively, while the water sample after being used to wash tableware had the lowest and highest values that were 4.0 x 102 Cfu/ml and 3.5 x 105 Cfu/ml, respectively. In the MPN test, the water sample before being used to wash tableware had the lowest and highest values that were 15/100ml and 26 100/ml, respectively, while the water sample after being used to wash tableware had the lowest and highest values that were 72/100 ml and 271/ 100 ml, respectively. Escherichia coli was detected in all samples 1&3 while in sample 2 Escherichia coli was detected in the water before it was detected the genus Enterobacter and in samples 4 the genus Enterobacter was detected and all samples water used to wash tableware of street vendors was positive for Salmonella.

Abstract

Porong River is an active river located in the Sidoarjo region, East Java which has been polluted by the Lapindo mudflow containing various chemical compounds, one of which is lead (Pb) heavy metal. Isolation of bacteria in the environment contaminated with Pb allows bacteria that have the potential as bioremediation agents to grow. The purpose of this study was to determine the content of heavy metal Pb and isolate and identify lead (Pb) tolerant bacteria in water and sediment at Porong river, Sidoarjo. Sampling of water and sediment was carried out at 2 sampling points based on the presence of Lapindo mud waste flow. Analysis of the heavy metal content of Pb was carried out using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Bacterial isolation was carried out on NA media containing 10 ppm Pb of heavy metal and incubated for 24 hours at 300C. Bacterial isolates were identified based on the macroscopic and microscopic properties and biochemical tests. The results of the heavy metal content of Pb at sampling point 1 in water was 0.81 ppm, and in sediment was 0.98 ppm while at sampling point 2 in water was 2.93 ppm, and in sediment was 3.88 ppm. The results of bacterial identification obtained as many as 6 bacterial isolates belonging to 3 genera of bacteria including Bacillus, Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus condition (DM) correlates with the damage that occur in pancreas especially in Langerhans islets, one of the damage indicators is diameter changes of Langerhans islets that getting smaller compare with the normal sizes. The use of natural ingredients to control diabetes mellitus can be done by infusing sweet beauty watermelon albedo which can be found abundant in traditional market. Albedo layer of watermelon contain antioxidant compounds that can help to regenerate Langerhans islets of pancreas. This study purpose was to know the effect of giving watermelon’s infusion albedo to diameter of Langerhans islets in diabetes mellitus rats (Rattus norvegicus), and analyze the potential process occurred based on the result as information source for other research. This study used 25 male rats (Rattus norvegicus) as animal model with 5 groups treatment which were normal group, positive group as control (DM without treatment), A group (DM+1000 mg/kgBB watermelon’s infusions albedo), B group (DM+1500 mg/kgBB watermelon’s infusions albedo), and C group (DM+2000 mg/kgBB watermelon’s infusions albedo). After all the treatments, the rats were anesthetized and dissected and then their pancreas was taken. The pancreas was processed into histological slides by fixing the pancreas in a fixative solution (10% formalin) then dehydrated in a series of graded ethanol and embedded in paraffin wax, cut at a thickness of 4 µm, and finally stained with hematoxylin-eosin dye for microscopic observation, according to the stages Histopathological analysis of the gonads was examined using standard methods. Data was collected by measuring the size of Langerhans islets with microscope Olympus CX33  and connected to the raster image application.  Data results from this study indicate that watermelon’s infusion albedo had effect to increase the diameter of Langerhans islets of rat with diabetes mellitus
