Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengevaluasi efek perendaman daging ayam broiler dalam konsentrasi infusa daun salam yang berbeda. Penelitian menggunakan desain faktorial dengan 3 taraf konsentrasi infusa (0%; 5%; dan 10%) serta dua waktu pengamatan yaitu 0 dan 8 jam setelah perlakuan perendaman. Parameter yang diukur meliputi rata-rata bilangan peroksida, pH, kadar air dan water holding capacity (WHC). Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis varian dan uji perbedaan akibat perlakuan dilakukan dengan uji beda nyata terkecil. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pengukuran pH dan WHC sesaat setelah perlakuan memperlihatkan perbedaan nyata (P0,05), sementara bilangan peroksida dan kadar air tidak berbeda nyata. Pada 8 jam setelah perendaman, terlihat bahwa nilai peroksida, pH, kadar air dan WHC menunjukkan perbedaan nyata. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa infusa daun salam mampu memperlambat laju bilangan peroksida, memperlambat penurunan pH dan memperlambat penurunan WHC.The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the immersion of chicken meat in the bayleaf extract and the time of measurement on the quality of the meat. This was a factorial experiment with three levels of bayleaf extract concentrations (0%, 5% and 10%), and two time of measurement (at 0 and 8 hours after the treatment). The parameters observed were the average peroxide value, the pH, the water content and the water holding capacity. The data were analyzed using ANOVA and followed by the least significant difference test for any significant difference. The results showed that the pH and the water holding capacity were significantly different (P0.05), whereas the peroxide value and the water content were not significantly different. Nevertheless, at eight hours after the immersion it was seen that the peroxide value, the pH, the water content and the water holding capacity were significantly different. It was concluded that the extract of bayleaves might slower the rate of the peroxide value, could decrease the pH, and decrease the water holding capacity.

Abstract

Coliform bacteria can be used as an indicator of the presence of pathogenic bacteria, such as E.coli bacteria that cause diarrhea. The aimed of this study is to determine the relationship between physical-chemical parameters namely temperature, pH, DO and BOD to the density of coliform bacteria in Jawi River, Pontianak. The sampling was conducted at one point each in the upstream, midstream and downstream area of the Jawi River during two tidal conditions of the Kapuas River in September 2016 at 09:40 (at low tide) and at 15:40 (at high tide). The correlation of physical-chemical parameter to coliform value was tested Pearson Product Moment. The results showed that coliform bacterial density increased from upstream to downstream with 150-1500 MPN/100 ml at high tide and 930-11000 MPN/100 ml at low tide. The results showed that the coliform bacterial density value had a positive relation with pH and BOD parameters and negative relation with temperature and DO parameters. So, it can be concluded that there is a correlation between physical parameters, such as temperature and chemical parameters such as pH, DO and BOD to microbiological parameters especially Coliform bacterial density. The benefit of this study is to give information about water quality of Jawi River and its correlation with density of Coliform bacterial, so that people are expected to pay more attention to the use of clean water to avoid the disease caused by coliform.

Abstract

Candidiasis has become increasingly widespread in the community alongside with the developing resistance of Candida sp. to some antifungals. A prevalence study in the present research is required to surveil the distribution of Candida-related infections to administrate the appropriate antifungal treatments. The objective of this research was to determine the species distribution of candidiasis with their antifungal susceptibility isolated from clinical specimens at the Zainoel Abidin Hospital (ZAH) Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The clinical specimens were from inpatients and outpatients in the hospital during January to June 2019. The identification of Candida species and antifungal sensitivity assay were conducted by using VITEK® 2 Compact. Of a total of 68 isolates, there were six species of Candida with the highest species prevalence was Candida tropicalis (52.94%). Additionally, the highest prevalence of candidiasis came from urine specimen (54.41%) and mostly from inpatients in the internal medicine unit (54.41%). Candidiasis occurred predominantly in men (58.82%) and during adulthood (55.88%). The antibiogram of Candida sp. shows a high percentage of sensitivity towards some antifungals including fluconazole (100%), voriconazole (100%), caspofungin (100%), micafungin (100%), amphotericin B (99.5%), and flucytosine (100%). From this result, it can be concluded that candidiasis cases in the ZAH Banda Aceh, Indonesia has prevalently occurred with the few antifungal therapies for candidiasis of were still effective empirically and definitively. This is an initial study of Candida prevalence within different clinical samples in Banda Aceh and the study is expected to be a basis for prevention and control of Candida-related infections in the area.

Abstract

Anatomical characters can be used as instructions to the structural resistance of plants to pathogen attack. Various pathogens attack sweet potato plants, such as the Sphaceloma batatas fungus that causes scurvy disease (scab). The aims of this research t test the structural resistance of sweet potato plants based on leaf anatomical character and intensity of disease attack due to the inoculated of S. batatas. The research was conducted from June to November 2016, using the Completely Randomized Design Experimental (RAL) method with a factorial pattern. The first factor was ten sweet potato cultivars and the second factor was the inoculum of S. batatas fungus each treatment with five replications. The character of leaf anatomy observed was thick of cuticle, thick of mesophyll, size and number of stomata and number of trichomes per 1 mm2 leaf area. Based on the research result, it was concluded that the inoculation of the fungus of S. batatas caused the decrease of stomata length and width on ten sweet potato cultivars. The highest intensity of disease attack was 14.33% and correlated with stomata length (r = 0.49). The anatomical structural resistance to scurvy can be used as a basis for determining crosses for obtaining superior sweet potato cultivars. The benefit of the research is to advise the community to cultivate sweet potatoes that have structural resistance to scurvy, such as cuticle and thick mesophyll, high trichomata density.

Abstract

The morphology and isozyme marker was not enough to reveal banana genetic diversity. So, it needs molecular analysis. The purpose of this research is to know the genetic diversity of banana with B genome using microsatelite marker. Forty bananas with B genom from Yogyakarta Agriculture Service and Animal Husbandary Service and also from Tropical Fruit Centre of Bogor Agriculture Institute were amplified using 6 loci (MaCIR327b, MaCIR108, Ma-3-139, Ma-3-90, Ma-1-17, and Ma-1-27). The diversity were identified with allele amount, genotype, observe heterozigosity, and filogeny. There are eight allele per locus average from six microsatelites. MaCIR108 produced the highest allele amount, there are 13 alleles. The research identified 75 genotypes. MaCIR327b, MaCIR108, Ma-3-139, Ma-3-90, Ma-1-17, and Ma-1-27, respectively, produced 8, 20, 13, 14, 15, and 5 alleles. The Ho average is quite high, there are 0,77. The similarity coefficient is between 0,597 – 1,00. MaCIR108 and Ma-3-90 can be used to identify banana group genom. As a group genom characteristic, Ma-1-17 needs more research. Identification result between morphology and microsatelite marker were different. Based on morphology marker, Sri Wulan and Byar cultivar were ABB, and Ketip Gunung Sari were AAB, but based on microsatelite marker Sri Wulan and Byar cultivar were AAB, while Ketip Gunung Sari has not B on its genom. Keywords: genetic diversity, banana, microsatelit.
