Abstract

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is a viral disease that affects livestock and can cause significant economic losses.  Vaccination has been recognized as the primary strategy for FMD prevention, but vaccine development, especially conventional vaccine production, has time, cost, and effectiveness limitations. Using software-based immunoinformatics methods has cost and time efficiency for simulation development and calculations in vaccine development research.  This study aimed to design FMD vaccine candidates using an epitope-based in-silico approach, focusing on identifying potential epitopes of the pathogen that causes FMD. The in silico approach was used to analyze FMD virus genome sequences from UniProtKB (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/msa/clustalo) and the National Library of Medicine application (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).  Furthermore, the prediction of FMD virus epitopes was analyzed using the Immuno-Epitope database, and the prediction of peptide antigenicity levels using VaxiJen 2.0 software. The analysis identified eight potential epitope candidates, such as CSIQKR, TEFGFHPNA, EIRPMEKVRA, YEGVEL, SFARRGT, APGLPWALQGKRRGALIDFESGTV, MASLEDKGKPF, and TLPTSFNYGAI with antigen binding affinities of 2. 9424nM, 1.65nM, 1.4702nM, 1.2966nM, 1.2643nM, 1.1967nM, 1.1921nM and 1.0143nm respectively. These epitopes are expected to form the basis for developing more selective and safe peptide vaccines. By focusing on epitopes, the resulting vaccine can improve the effectiveness and safety of vaccination and accelerate the development of new vaccines for FMD prevention.

Abstract

Palm Oil Mill Effluent/POME is a by-product produced from the processing of fresh fruit bunches/FFB into crude palm oil/CPO. Aeration of POME is one of the processing methods that aims to reduce the levels of organic matter and pollutants. This study aims to determine the dynamics of POME pH with aeration treatment and dilution variations in order to speed up the waste treatment time.The method used in this research is to make the treatment of pure POME, POME & water in a ratio of 1:1 & 1:2. The process carried out in the study was to place the solution into a 1 liter bottle and given an air flow using an aerator with a discharge of 0.66 l/min. POME samples were taken every 24 hours for a span of 7 days. The pH was measured using the electrometric method. On day 2, it was found that the pH of the 1:1 treatment POME had reached pH 6, while the 1:2 treatment on day 3 and the pure POME only reached pH 6 on day 5. Aeration is an effective method to neutralize the acidity of POME. The increase in POME pH was fastest in the 1:2, 1:1 and finally pure POME dilutions. All treatments met the pH quality standard on day 5. Aeration can help improve the quality of POME so that it is more environmentally friendly.

Abstract

This article reviews the epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, management, prognosis, and complications associated with jellyfish stings. Cases of jellyfish envenomation are increasing in line with climate change and human activities in aquatic environments. Data show that jellyfish envenomation is frequent in tropical and subtropical waters, with the number of cases reported in Australia and the Western Pacific region, as well as some cases in Indonesia is higher compared to rest of Asia. The jellyfish species Chironex fleckeri, Portuguese man o' war, and Carukia barnesi have the potential to cause severe and life-threatening systemic manifestations. The initial management of jellyfish stings remains uncertain and is still a subject of debate. Appropriate and prompt first aid is crucial for improving the patient’s prognosis. Other factors, such as the patient's condition and the environment, also affect prognosis and the potential for complications.

Abstract

Solanum melongena (eggplant) is an important cultivated vegetable crop with a very high consumer level, both in tropical and subtropical regions. Eggplant is widely favored by the public because in addition to having a good taste, it can also be made pickled and candied eggplant, and is good as a source of nutrition in supporting public health. Siderophores are metal-coating agents with low molecular mass (200-2000 Da) produced by microorganisms and plants, especially under Fe-limiting conditions. Antagonistic bacteria generally live colonizing roots an d are beneficial, because they are able to increase plant growth and induce systemic resistance. one species of the genus Bacillus spp. namely B. subtilis is able to produce amylase, protease, pullunase, chitinase, xylanase and lipase enzymes which are secondary metabolites to control pathogens and spur plant growth. This article is sourced from relevant literature studies related to the title. The purpose of writing the article is to determine the benefits of siderophores as pathogen disease control in eggplant plants. Results successfully inhibited the growth of pathogens.

Abstract

Pests are one of the major challenges faced by farmers, particularly those cultivating horticultural crops, due to the difficulty in eliminating these pests, which also increases production costs. Therefore, the development of a practical and effective biopesticide is essential. This study aims to develop a nanoemulsion biopesticide from two readily available raw materials, namely the jongi plant and cigarette butts. The research employed an in vitro laboratory testing method to evaluate the effectiveness of five formulas (F0, F1, F2, F3, and F4) against two types of pests, Fusarium sp. and whiteflies. The effectiveness was measured by the inhibition zone in the Fusarium sp. test and the mortality rate of whiteflies. Additionally, a direct toxicity test was conducted on tomato plants to assess the safety of the formula. The results showed that the developed biopesticide was effective in inhibiting the growth of Fusarium sp. compared to the positive control and increased the mortality rate of whiteflies. Among the four formulas tested, three of the best-performing formulas were selected based on their inhibition and pest mortality rates, followed by toxicity testing. Formula 3, composed of 0% tobacco, 70% jongi, 20% starter, and 10% palm sugar, with a final pH of 4.2, was found to be safe for use without causing side effects on the plants.
