Abstract

Oyster mushroom baglog compost is an organic waste rich in cellulose, making it a potential source for the isolation of cellulolytic bacteria. This research aims to isolate cellulolytic bacteria that function as decomposers in Baglog compost. Oyster mushroom baglog compost was used as a substrate, and bacteria were isolated using Nutrient Agar (NA) media and Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) media. Qualitative testing method was done with congo red test. The results of the study successfully characterized 3 (three) potential cellulolytic bacterial isolates characterized by a cellulolytic index of more than 1 (1-1.75) and have the following characteristics: one isolate is milky white with a large round shape, one isolate is white with a large choppy shape, and one isolate is yellow with a medium round shape. These findings indicate that the three isolates have potential as cellulose decomposers and can be utilized in organic waste treatment applications or compost production.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of different types of turkey on fertility, hatchability, hatching loss and egg hatching weight. This research uses the Independent Sample T-Test. Treated with two types of turkey, Black Spanish and Bourbon Red. The parameters observed were fertility, hatchability, hatching loss, and egg hatching weight. The results of this study show that the average fertility of A= 80%, B= 80% shows no significant difference. The average hatchability of A= 58.3%, B= 33.3% shows significant differences. The average hatching loss of A = 36%, B = 32% shows significant differences. The average hatching weight of A=41.2g, B=49.7g shows significant differences. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that two types of turkey (Black Spanish) and (Bourbon Red) have a significant effect on hatchability, hatching loss and hatching weight. However, the two types of turkeys did not differ significantly in terms of egg fertility.

Abstract

Turmeric (Curcuma domestica Val) contains curcumin, which enhances immunity and aids digestion in livestock. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of turmeric flour supplementation in quail rations on their growth performance. A total of 100 female grower quails (Coturnix-coturnix japonica), aged 3 weeks, were used in a completely randomized design (CRD) with four treatments and five replicates, resulting in 20 experimental units. The treatments included P0 (control, 0% turmeric flour), P1 (0.05% turmeric flour), P2 (0.1% turmeric flour), and P3 (0.15% turmeric flour). The study lasted 14 days, from 21 to 34 days of age. Observed variables included body weight gain, feed intake, and feed conversion ratio (FCR). Results indicated that turmeric flour supplementation at 0.05%–0.15% had no significant effect on quail performance. It is concluded that turmeric flour supplementation up to 0.15% does not enhance quail growth. Further studies are recommended to investigate its effects over a longer period or different growth phases.

Abstract

Antibacterial refers to a substance or compound capable of hindering bacterial growth or eradicating bacteria by affecting the permeability of harmful microbes, particularly those harmful to humans. Leaves from the sapodilla tree (Manilkara zapota) contain secondary metabolites like tannins, flavonoids and saponins. The goal of this research is to evaluate the antibacterial properties of sapodilla leaf extract in slowing down the proliferation of Escherichia coli bacteria and to identify the concentration of sapodilla leaf extract that effectively inhibits the growth of Escherichia coli. The investigation employed the well diffusion technique with three repetitions. Data analysis was conducted using the One Way ANOVA test. Findings in this study indicated that the sample or treatment displayed a significance value las than 0,05, suggesting a notable difference among sample types in relation to the diameter of the clear zone, and that the concentration also showed a significance value less than 0,05, indicating a significant difference related to the concentration on the results of the clear zone diameter. The findings from this studys suggest that the greatest antibacterial efficacy was observed at concentration of 100%.

Abstract

Low Back Pain (LBP) is a prevalent musculoskeletal problem worldwide, particularly among the elderly population. This study aims to analyze the relationship between the level of knowledge among elderly individuals in Karang Taliwang Village and the incidence of LBP. A quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design was employed, using an ordinal scale to measure knowledge levels and a nominal scale for LBP incidence. The results indicate a significant relationship between knowledge levels and LBP incidence, where elderly individuals with lower knowledge levels tend to experience LBP more frequently. This study concludes that enhancing education on LBP risk factors and prevention is essential for reducing its prevalence among the elderly. The scientific implication of this study highlights the need for evidence-based educational interventions to lower LBP prevalence and improve the quality of life among older adults.

Abstract

Earthworms (Lumbricus rubellus) belong to the phylum Annelida, class Clitellata, order Haplotaxida, family Lumbricidae, and genus Lumbricus. They thrive in loose and moist soil habitats. This species is commonly used as animal feed due to its high protein content, which is 65% higher than that of mammalian meat and 50% more than that of fish. To meet the increasing demand for earthworms as livestock and fish feed, their cultivation and production need to be enhanced. One method to boost earthworm production is by manipulating their reproduction through superovulation using Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotrophin (PMSG). PMSG is a hormone produced by the chorionic cups of pregnant mares and has biological effects similar to Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and minor Luteinizing Hormone (LH) activity. This study used a completely randomized design consisting of four groups: the control group (K0) without PMSG treatment, treatment group 1 (K1) receiving 200 IU PMSG dissolved in 100 ml of distilled water, treatment group 2 (K2) receiving 250 IU PMSG dissolved in 100 ml of distilled water, and treatment group 3 (K3) receiving 300 IU PMSG dissolved in 100 ml of distilled water. The treatment was applied by immersing the earthworms in the solution for 2 minutes. Each treatment group contained 10 earthworms and was replicated 10 times. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA at a 5% significance level, followed by the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test. The results of this study indicate that the administration of Pregnant Mare Serum Gonadotrophin for superovulation significantly increases cocoon production in Lumbricus rubellus.

Abstract

Basil leaves, which include flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins, and phenols, are one of the herbal plants that may be used as an antibiotic. We set out to see whether our hypothesis that an ethanol extract of basil leaves inhibited the development of Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 6301 bacteria would hold water. Methods from descriptive experimental research are employed in this work. As part of its Bacteriology Laboratory, the National College of Health Sciences carried out the investigation. Quantitative sampling is the method employed. Foliage picked fresh from a basil field in Klaten's Jogonalan neighborhood. Powdered basil leaves were isolated by maceration with 96% ethanol. A series of concentrations of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% DMSO were subsequently applied to the extract. A Kirby-Bauer assay for determining antimicrobial efficacy. Findings showed that an extract from basil leaves was antibacterial against the strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 6301. On average, the inhibition zone diameter for basil leaf extract at 0%,40%,60%,80%, and 100% was 10.4 mm, 10.8 mm, 11.5 mm, 11.9 mm, and 13.0 mm, respectively. A 13.0 mm bland zone was generated by the maximum effective concentration of 100% in inhibiting Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 6301. No matter the dose, the antibacterial effects of basil leaf extract (Ocimum x africanum Lour) were able to suppress the growth of Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 6301. able to block 13.0 mm. C.
