Abstract

The cuscus study for approximately 15 years showed that there are morphological and morphometric differences among the same species. Cuscus is a nocturnal animal that very dependent on natural forests, which in fact is beginning to decrease. Environmental and food changes are the cause of changes in the blood profile. Therefore, this research needs to be done with the aim of obtaining blood profiles, preparing blood smear from each type of cuscus from the lowlands and islands in Papua. The results of this study describe blood profiles of three species of cuscus found Spilocuscus maculatus, Spilocuscus papuensis and Phalanger orientalis. Types of Leukocytes found consisting of Basophils, Eosinophils, stem Neutrophils, segment Neutrophils, Lymphocytes and Monocytes in S. maculatus; Basophils, Eosinophils, stem Neutrophils, segment Neutrophil, Lymphocytes in S. papuensis; and Basophils, Eosinophils, segment Neutrophils, Lymphocytes, Monocytes on P. orientalis. The largest number of leukocytes is S. maculatus ♂ adult (12,20x103 / mm3). The highest amount of Eristrosit is P. orientalis ♂ adult (10.780.000 / mm3). The highest hemoglobin belongs to S. maculatus ♂ adult is 14.8 mg / dL, and the highest percentage of hematocrit is also S. maculatus ♂ adults (44%). The three species of cuscus have different numbers of leukocytes, erythrocytes, haemoglobin and hematocrit.

Abstract

Pesticides pose a risk to public health and environmental in agricultural areas. This study described pesticide use among farmers in Oebobo, Batnun, Tupan and Pollo villages, South Central Timor, Indonesia. Some 400 farmers were interviewed about pesticide use, knowledge and attitude, symptoms of intoxication, personal protective equipment and hygiene. The farmers had adequate knowledge about pesticide toxicity, but farmer’s awareness did not necessarily translate into action. Majority did not use appropiate personal protective equipment nor good hygiene when handling pesticides. Farmers in South Central Timor did not use the most hazardous pesticides (class Ia and Ib). However, use of class II pesticides and those of lower toxicity in combination with inadequate practice among farmers was found in the study areas. Expensive protective equipment and behavioral patterns, such as spraying without protective clothing and mixing pesticides with bare hands combine to produce several well-documented health problems. Therefore, alternative crop management systems which could help preventing the negative effects of pesticides on farmer health and the environment are needed. Training farmers in integrated pest management methods, use of proper hygiene and personal protective equipment when handling pesticides should be promoted.
