Abstract

Moringa leaves (Moringa oleifera) contain flavonoids and saponins that can help improve fish health. Fish health and immune conditions can be predicted based on fish haematology. The study aimed to determine the effects of powder addition of Moringa leaves in fish feed pellets on the haematological disorders of saline tilapia. It was carried out from July to August 2022. Moringa leaf flour was mixed well with pelleted feed, and the dose of Moringa leaf flour was as follows: 0 (Control, without the addition of Moringa leaves), P1 (10 g/kg), P2 (15 g/kg), and P3 (20 g/kg). Fish were stored in round plastic containers (25 L, equipped with an aerator and circulation pump) for 42 days, 15 fish/container. During the study, fish were fed three times/day at satiation. Sampling was carried out twice, namely before treatment and at the end of the experiment (day 42). The results showed that adding Moringa leaf flour to fish feed pellets affected fish haematology. Fish fed with turmeric-enriched pellets showed a higher percentage of lymphocytes, increasing the fish's immunity. The best treatment was P2, which showed 81.66% lymphocytes, 7.11% monocytes, 8.66% neutrophils, and 2.55% thrombocytes. Data obtained showed that fish fed with Moringa leaf pellets had better haematological conditions than fish not fed with Moringa leaf pellets.

Abstract

Goldfish (Carassius auratus) at Maju Mapan Farm is one of the leading ornamental fish commodities with a high mortality rate due to disease. For this reason, this research aims to know about the type, prevalence, and intensity of ectoparasites at Maju Mapan Farm. The method in this research was random sampling for fish sampling 30 fish/pond. The type of parasites, prevalence, and intensity were analyzed descriptively and described in figures, tables, or graphs. This observation and identification showed that ectoparasites infected by goldfish at Maju Mapan Farm consisted of 3 types: Trichodina sp, Dactylogyrus sp, and Gyrodactylus sp. The types of ectoparasites that dominated both were Trichodina sp (96.11%), Dactylogyrus sp (3.61%), and Gyrodactylus sp (0.28%). Prevalence of ectoparasites was Trichodina sp (83.33%), Dactylogyrus sp (43.33%), and Gyrodactylus sp (6.67%). The intensity of ectoparasites were Trichodina sp (129 ind/fish), Dactylogyrus sp. (9 ind/fish), and Gyrodactylus sp (4 ind/fish). Trichodina sp. and Gyrodactylus sp. were commonly found in mucus, while Dactylogyrus sp. only infected goldfish in the gill organ. Prevalence and intensity of ectoparasites were found in goldfish with medium-stage infection at Maju Mapan Farm. The result of measuring water quality parameters was not optimal, causing ectoparasites to infect and multiply rapidly in goldfish at Maju Mapan Farm.

Abstract

Transmission of Escherichia coli in food can occur through contact with infected workers, as well as tools and materials used during food processing. One way to determine the presence of E.coli in processed fish balls is to perform a bacteriological test. The purpose of this study was to detect the presence or absence of bacteria in fish balls so that it can be seen whether these meatballs are in the hygienic category and are suitable for consumption or not. This type of research is a laboratory experiment. This research was conducted at the Maluku Provincial Health Laboratory on 26-28 January 2022. The sample used in this study was fish balls taken by purposive sampling (taken according to research needs) for laboratory testing. Based on the results above, it shows that the E.coli bacteria found in the meatball samples during the phenotyping test with Vitek 2 compact both at a dilution of 10-1 to 10-3 were not identified because they had not passed the maximum limit. Based on the results obtained, it was found that the fish balls made by service participants in Mamala country were still in accordance with the criteria of the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) No.7388:2009 regarding the maximum limit of E.coli bacterial contamination in processed meat products made by the government for the protection of consumers regarding the quality of the product in circulation and declared to meet the requirements for the maximum threshold of microbial contamination in food if the value is 3/g for the status fit for consumption. The condition of the value of the test results of the fish balls sample under study is due to the fact that food makers or processors when processing fish balls still use the correct sanitation and hygiene principles and according to procedures

Abstract

This research was conducted in April – June 2021in the Laboratory of Parasites and Fish Diseases, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, Universitas Riau. Histological preparations were carried out at the Bukittinggi Veterinary Center (BVet). The aim of this study was to analyze the kidney structure of striped catfish (P.hypophthalmus) infected with Edwardsiella tarda with different bacterial densities. The benefit of this research is to provide information about changes in the structure of kidney tissue due to infection with E.tarda, so that later treatment solutions can be sought. The method used was an experimental method with a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of 4 treatment levels and 3 replications. The treatments applied were P0 (fish not infected with E.tarda), P1 (fish infected with E.tarda at a density of 106 CFU/mL), P2 (107 CFU/mL), and P3 (108 CFU/mL). Striped catfish (P.hypophthalmus) used are 8-12 cm in size with a density of 1 fish/3 L. Infection is done by injection in the intraperitoneal as much as 0.1 mL/fish. The results of the study found that clinical symptoms caused by dull and protruding eyes, dull body surface color, flaky fins, body surface wounds, and bleeding. In histopathological observation, the kidneys with different bacterial densities experienced the highest damage at P3 (108 CFU/mL), namely necrosis, hemorrhage, and hypertrophy.

Abstract

Zinc and copper are micronutrients that are the factors that support microalgae growth rate besides macronutrients, CO2, temperature, salinity, and pH. Growth of Nannochlopsis sp was observed to determine the influence of the addition of Zn and Cu concentration. Microalgae cultivation was located outdoors on the semi-mass scale using 800 L medium on mesophilic condition in 3 treatments with the addition of 1 ppm, 3 ppm, and 5 ppm concentrations of Zn and Cu metals. Cells density was calculated using a hemocytometer, and the absorbed metal content was measured by AAS. The study aimed to test the growth response of Nannochloropsis sp cells to Zn and Cu metals. The growth rate of microalgae was observed for the addition of Zn and Cu concentration in the cultivation medium. The result showed the highest Nannochloropsis sp growth rate for Zn addition was 0.053/day and for Cu addition was 0.279/day. Between Zn and Cu addition, the highest growth rate was observed in the addition of 1 ppm Cu metal (Cu1) which was equal to 0.279/day. This shows that adding micronutrients are not automatically will increase the growth rate of microalgae as well.

Abstract

Operational limitations are the main problem in monitoring 3.31 million hectares of mangrove forest areas throughout Indonesia. However, with the disruption of technology, there are currently many approaches and methods that can be adapted to answer these problems. One of them is drone technology. This technology can be utilized in high-resolution rapid mapping for limited areas. The output from the data acquired by the drone can be analyzed for various purposes, including assessing the health condition of the vegetation. In this study, the results of the acquisition of unmanned aircraft on mangrove vegetation are used to determine the health level of vegetation in mangrove conservation areas. The research was conducted on 46 hectares of mangrove conservation area. The acquisition process was divided into four flying missions with a flight height of 150 m, 80% patching, and using the Hasselblad L1D-20c camera with a 1-inch sensor. The acquisition results are processed using the online photogrammetry method through the cloud-based photogrammetry service from DroneDeploy. Processing uses standard mode, where this mode is designed to produce good image quality with a relatively fast processing time. The acquisition results of 1614 photos were 100% successfully aligned, with 3.50 cm/px GSD resolution. Based on the application of the VARI algorithm to the resulting orthophoto, it is known that 30.2692% of the AOI is an area and/or dead or non-vegetated vegetation. Then 59.3887% is vegetation in an unhealthy condition, 10.3405% is considered as vegetation in healthy condition, and 0.0015% is vegetation in very healthy condition.
