Abstract

Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is an important fishery commodity in Indonesia due to its high nutritional value and affordability. However, its high moisture and protein content make it highly susceptible to microbial contamination, including pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella sp., which may pose serious food safety risks to consumers. This study aimed to detect and characterize  Salmonella sp. in milkfish landed at the Ujong Baroh Fish Landing Base (PPI Ujong Baroh), West Aceh Regency, Indonesia. The study was conducted in April 2025 using an observational sampling approach followed by laboratory-based microbiological analysis. A total of 10 milkfish samples were collected purposively during fish landings. Samples were aseptically dissected, and tissues from the gills, skin, muscle, and intestine were homogenized for bacterial analysis. Isolation was carried out using Buffer Peptone Water (BPW) as a pre-enrichment medium and Salmonella Shigella Agar (SSA) as a selective medium. Identification was performed based on macroscopic colony morphology and microscopic Gram staining characteristics. The results showed that all ten samples tested positive for Salmonella sp. contamination. Colonies grown on SSA medium exhibited circular shapes, black pigmentation, smooth surfaces, entire margins, and convex elevations. Microscopic observations revealed Gram-negative coccobacillus to be short rod-shaped bacteria that appeared pink after Gram staining. These findings indicate that milkfish landed at PPI Ujong Baroh were contaminated by Salmonella sp., highlighting the need for improved sanitation practices and stricter microbiological monitoring during post-harvest fish handling

Abstract

Early childhood is a strategic target group for introducing environmental knowledge and awareness from an early age. One important aspect that needs to be introduced is marine biodiversity as an essential component of ecosystems that play a vital role in sustaining life. However, learning about marine organisms at the kindergarten level is generally limited and still relies on conventional media, resulting in a lack of concrete and interactive learning experiences. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and awareness of students at TK RA Ar-Rahman, Ujong Tanoh Darat Village, Meureubo District, West Aceh Regency, regarding marine organisms through educational activities using teaching aids. The methods applied included interactive lectures, demonstrations using teaching aids, question-and-answer sessions, and educational games. The activity was conducted on January 22, 2026, involving students aged 4–6 years as the main participants. The results showed an increase in students’ understanding of various types of marine organisms and the development of positive attitudes toward the importance of marine environmental conservation. In addition, the use of teaching aids was proven to enhance students’ learning interest and active participation during the learning process. In conclusion, this activity is effective as a model of environmental education for early childhood and has the potential to be replicated in other schools with similar characteristics.

Abstract

Water quality is a critical factor in determining the ecological condition of estuarine ecosystems, which are highly dynamic due to the interaction between freshwater and seawater. However, information on the water quality characteristics of the Lhok Geulumpang estuary in Aceh Jaya remains limited. This study aimed to analyze water quality parameters in the study area. Field measurements were conducted in October 2025 at a representative station using in situ methods. The observed parameters included temperature, salinity, pH, and dissolved oxygen (DO), with three replicates for each measurement. The collected data were analyzed descriptively and compared with environmental quality standards. The results showed that water temperature ranged from 29.8 to 30.0°C, salinity from 7.24 to 9.39 ppt, pH from 7.61 to 8.31, and DO from 4.3 to 4.9 mg/L. These values indicate that the study area exhibits typical estuarine characteristics, particularly reflected by low salinity due to freshwater influence. The results indicate that the Lhok Geulumpang estuary is in relatively good condition and can support aquatic life. However, the slightly lower DO concentration suggests the need for continuous monitoring to ensure long-term environmental sustainability
