Abstract

The study of endemic plants in the Karimunjawa Island area is an important concern in plant conservation efforts in protecting the surrounding environment. Endemic plants are unique and native plants that are found in an area and do not exist in other areas because of their small population. The research method used is Systematic Literature Review (SLR). SLR is a research method whose aim is to conduct ongoing and regularly updated systematic reviews, incorporating new, relevant evidence as it becomes available. The result there are three types of typical plants found in the Karimunjawa Islands, namely Dewadaru (Fragraea elliptica), Kalimasada (Cordia subcordata) and Setigi (Pemphis acidula). Dewadaru belongs to the Potalieae tribe. Potalieae is a homogeneous taxon that includes in general Fagraea, Anthocleista and Potalia. Water extract from Dewadaru fruit has been proven to be effective as a natural preservative for tofu, which contains alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, saponins and steroids barbarslot. Kalimasada (Cordia subcordata) belongs to the family (Boraginaceae) in the form of wood that is strong and durable, so it is good for use as building materials and household appliances. Cordia subcordata contains alkaloids, flavonoids, carbohydrates, glycosides, tannins, terpenoids. While Setigi (Pemphis acidula) is used as an ornamental plant (bonsai) with high economic value. Pemphis acidula can be used as a bioindicator of a mangrove area that is still beautiful because it is classified as a pure standing mangrove type. The ethanol extract of pandemor leaf simplicia (Pemphis acidula) contains a class of flavonoids, saponins and tannins.

Abstract

Sub-Saharan Africa has a high rate of malaria-related morbidity and death, with Nigeria accounting for a substantial proportion of these cases owing to its malarious nature. Most Nigerians live in environments that encourage the development of mosquito vectors that are responsible for malaria transmission. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of malaria in the peri-urban areas. A time-series analysis was performed on 1,141 people with suspected febrile illness who visited a peri-urban health center over the course of a year (February 2020 – January 2021). Each person who presented to the hospital and was tested for malaria was included in the study. The 12-month study reported an overall prevalence of 24% (p<0.05). A total of 273 individuals were found to be seropositive, with males (162) having a higher prevalence than females (111). Cases of seropositivity have been reported in all age groups. This study concluded that malaria remains a public health concern in the country, particularly in areas favorable for mosquito vector reproduction. Consequently, elimination approaches should be strengthened to safeguard people, particularly in vulnerable regions.

Abstract

Pathogenic organisms have the ability to reduce or delay fish output. The physicochemical characteristics and microbial population of fish pond water, play great roles in affecting the growth and development of fish. This study aims to assess the microbiological quality and physicochemical quality of fish pond water in Ijebu-North local government of Ogun state, Nigeria. Fish pond water samples were collected from three different locations, which include Ago-Iwoye, Ijebu-igbo and Awa. Physicochemical analysis of fish pond water samples were achieved by standard procedures and all parameters were subjected to World Health Organization standards (WHO). The microbiological examination was determined by different selective agar media and biochemical identification was achieved by conventional analysis. The physicochemical characteristics of the samples such as temperature, pH and conductivity ranged from 33.9-44.20C, 6.70-7.87 and 163-196 respectively. The presence of trace and toxic heavy metals such as calcium, zinc, copper, iron, lead and so on were detected in this study. The sample from Ijebu-Igbo had the highest bacteria count of 4.28x102 cfu/ml. Esherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus species have the highest occurrence among the isolates identified. Therefore, there is need for adequate treatment of fish pond water to reduce the risk of fish exposure to pathogens and heavy metals. This is to ensure that environmental parameters of water are in the optimum range that will enhance healthy fish production.

Abstract

Pollution of the Opak River by heavy metals such as chromium can have an impact on the use of river water for aquaculture in the Bantul Regency area. This study aims to determine the level of concentration of chromium contamination in water samples, sediments and their accumulation in catfish cultivated by the community. The method in this study in taking samples of sediment, water, and catfish is in the form of a cluster random sampling method. Chromium level analysis using AAS (Atomic Adsorption Spectrophotometer) instrumentation-based tests. The results of this reaseacrh show that chromium pollutants from the Opak river have been dispersed into fish farming ponds through irrigation canals. Chromium concentrations in water, sediments, and catfish with ranges and averages respectively of 0.113-0.144 mg/L, 0.667-1.281 mg/L, and 0.258-0.434 mg/L.

Abstract

The high maternal mortality rate (MMR) and infant mortality rate (IMR) are the main cases in the health sector. Efforts to prevent this are encouraged to utilize plants that contain antifertility compounds, for example with papaya seeds (Carica papaya) which are able to minimize the side effects of contraceptive use. This study aims to determine the description of uterine histopathology of female ICR mice (Mus musculus) after administration of papaya seed extract (Carica papaya). The stages are determining the dose of papaya seed extract (Carica papaya), making papaya seed extract (Carica papaya), preparation and treatment of experimental animals, as well as making and reading uterine histopathology preparations of mice. The results showed that the administration of papaya seed extract (Carica papaya) for 34 days orally at a dose of 0.5 ml/bb was able to disrupt reproductive cells in mice (Mus musculus) characterized by abnormal endometrial thickening along with the amount of dose given.
