Abstract

The utilization of maggot frass from Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae (Hermetia illucens Linneus, 1875) has garnered attention in the context of organic farming as a promising alternative to enhance plant growth and development. Maggot frass, a byproduct of the larval digestion process, is rich in essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and contains beneficial microorganisms for the soil. This study employs a literature review method. Literature sources were obtained from the Google Scholar database using keywords such as "maggot frass", "kasgot", "Black Soldier Fly", and "Hermetia illucens". The articles obtained were then analyzed to gather secondary data. The aim of this research is to explore the potential utilization of maggot frass from BSF larvae in enhancing plant growth and development in the context of organic farming. Research on the utilization of maggot frass has shown significant potential in improving soil fertility and increasing crop productivity. Furthermore, the use of BSF larvae in organic waste management can also significantly reduce waste volume while creating valuable resources for agriculture. By integrating the utilization of maggot frass into organic farming practices, it is hoped that a more sustainable and environmentally friendly agricultural system can be created in the future.

Abstract

Larvae of the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) are a natural material that has the potential to become a new alternative for accelerating wound healing due to their nutritional content. This study aims to analyze the potential of BSF larvae oil ointment in accelerating the healing of incisional wounds in mice. The study was conducted as an experimental research with six treatments and four repetitions, including a control group without treatment, ointment base, gentamicin ointment, BSF larvae oil ointment at 5% concentration, BSF larvae oil ointment at 10% concentration, and BSF larvae oil ointment at 15% concentration. The parameters observed included the percentage of wound healing, area under the curve (AUC) values, and anti-inflammatory efficacy percentage. The results showed no significant differences between groups based on statistical analysis (P>0.05) for the observed parameters. However, the 5% BSF larvae oil ointment showed a 100% healing percentage on the fourteenth day. Based on AUC values and anti-inflammatory efficacy percentage, the 5% BSF larvae oil ointment had values close to commercial gentamicin ointment. This indicates that treatment with BSF larvae oil ointment, especially at the lowest dose, plays a role in accelerating incisional wound healing and has great potential to be developed as a commercial ointment in the future.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is among the most severe health issues globally. This study aimed to determine the beneficial effects of Mentawai taro (Colocasia esculenta var. Mentawai) in managing hyperglycemia and attenuating inflammation in pancreatic ß-cells in alloxan-induced diabetic mice. Twenty-one adult male mice were divided into three groups: healthy (non-DM), alloxan-induced DM, and DM mice fed with a diet containing 25% Mentawai taro flour. The treatments were administered for four consecutive weeks. Various parameters, including blood glucose levels, glucose tolerance, and insulin tolerance, were assessed, alongside microscopic examination of pancreatic histology. The results demonstrated that supplementation with 25% Mentawai taro corm significantly lowered fasting blood glucose levels (**P<0.01) and improved glucose tolerance (*P<0.05) and insulin tolerance (*P<0.05) compared to untreated diabetic mice. Mentawai taro corm also ameliorated pancreatic degeneration, as indicated by a larger islet of Langerhans area, a higher total cell number per islet, and a significantly lower number of degenerated cells in pancreatic tissue (**P<0.01). In conclusion, supplementing Mentawai taro corm at 25% in the diet could effectively help manage diabetic issues, including hyperglycemia and pancreatic degeneration.

Abstract

Inflammation is the body's normal protective response, but it is often an over-response that can cause tissue damage. Commercial synthetic anti-inflammatory drugs of steroidal and non-steroidal groups have high side effects. So that alternative anti-inflammatory drugs are needed that have low side effects. Maggot black soldier fly is a type of insect that has begun to be widely studied to utilize its bioactives as anti-inflammatory, one of which is because it is high in protein. Therefore, this study aims to explore the anti-inflammatory properties of black soldier fly maggot extract. Anti-inflammatory testing of maggot extract was carried out using an in vitro heat-induced protein denaturation assay, with diclofenac sodium serving as a commercial drug reference. It was found that maggot extracted with 100% methanol was 5 times more effective than maggot extracted with other methanol concentrations. Amino acid analysis showed increased levels of alanine and arginine, which are believed to contribute to the inhibition of protein denaturation. Thus, maggot extracted with 100% methanol showed better potential as an anti-inflammatory drug.

Abstract

AbstractInflammation is a serious problem that needs to be treated. The use of steroid and non-steroidal drugs can treat inflammation well, but long-term use causes many side effects. So, it is necessary to use effective natural medicinal ingredients, one of which is velvet bean leaves (Mucuna pruriens L. (DC.)). This study aims to analyze the effect of velvet bean leaf ointment on the level of leukocyte components in mice experiencing inflammation. This research method was an experiment with a completely randomized design consisting of 6 treatment groups (normal, negative control, positive control (ketoconazole ointment)), velvet bean leaf ointment treatment at doses of 200, 400, and 600 mg/kgBW. The results showed that the use of velvet bean leaf ointment at doses of 200 and 400 mg/kgBW was able to significantly reduce the quantity of total leukocytes and monocytes in mice compared to the negative control (P <0.05); ointment at a dose of 200 mg/kgBW was able to significantly reduce the quantity of granulocytes and lymphocytes in mice compared to the negative control (P <0.05). The ability of velvet bean leaf ointment at a dose of 200 mg/kgBW is better in reducing the leukocyte quantity component compared to commercial drugs (ketoconazole ointment). Therefore, velvet bean leaf ointment at a dose of 200 mg/kgBW has great potential to be developed into an effective standardized anti-inflammatory drug.AbstrakInflamasi merupakan masalah serius yang perlu ditangani. Penggunaan obat steroid dan nonsteroid dapat mengatasi inflamasi dengan baik, namun penggunaan jangka panjang menimbulkan banyak efek samping. Maka dari itu perlu digunakan bahan obat alami yang efektif, salah satunya adalah daun kacang miang (Mucuna pruriens L. (DC.)). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh salep daun kacang miang terhadap kadar komponen leukosit pada mencit yang mengalami inflamasi.

Abstract

Information systems are developing very rapidly which is a combination of information technology and the activities of people who use it to support operations and management. In this development there have been many recent advances to help carry out work. Inventory is a system that manages data on all inventory of goods related to logistics activities carried out by a business. Inventory is often also referred to as an inventory system. Meanwhile, inventory itself is more often used to refer to inventory data. Meanwhile, an inventory information system is a software system that will assist the inventory process by implementing strict inventory administration procedures, recording from incoming goods, storage, to outgoing goods. Efficient inventory management helps pharmacies control drug purchasing costs, monitor drug expiration dates and ensure they do not run out of stock of important items. This research aims to store data and information centrally in a database to record the supply of medicines needed by patients and avoid stock outs that can disrupt health services. This system was developed using the waterfall method with Visual Studio Code, PHP and PHP My Admin software, while for system testing using the black box method to determine its functionality. The results of the research show that the inventory information system can assist in managing drug supplies, calculating drug stock, as well as preparing drug sales reports for both input and output at the Kian Jaya Farma pharmacy.

Abstract

In Indonesia, there are various platforms that provide functions to carry out buying and selling transactions or called e-commerce. One of the e-commerce that is widely used in Indonesia is Shopee. Shopee is one of the e-commerce that is included in the B2C category that is widely used by people in various countries, especially in Indonesia. Shopee was officially launched for the first time in 2015 in Singapore and has expanded its business to other countries, such as Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Taiwan. The service provided by Shopee for sellers, namely Shopee Seller, is a reference for sellers and buyers when they are going to make buying and selling transactions using the Shopee application. There are several factors that must be owned by the Shopee Seller application which are benchmarks so that good and safe services are created when sellers make transactions. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a behavioral analysis of sellers using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) method so that it can be known how users (sellers) behave towards accepting the e-commerce application used, namely Shopee Seller. This study was conducted on the THAIJAJAN seller community who use the Shopee Seller application using a descriptive approach. The results of the study show that the use and acceptance of the Shopee Seller application in the THAIJAJAN community are in the high category and have positive values. Thus, it is hoped that Shopee will always pay attention to the services and features provided so that they can satisfy the needs of Shopee users, especially for sellers.
