Abstract

Drinking water quality is a crucial factor that influences livestock productivity. Regular evaluation of the quality of livestock drinking water is an essential activity. Blitar Regency is known as a center for egg production from laying hens (Gallus domesticus). This study aims to evaluate the quality of livestock drinking water and provide a literature review regarding the potential for improvement through phytoremediation methods. This research method involves laboratory analysis and literature review. Laboratory analysis is carried out to determine the quality of water chemical parameters, then the results are compared with livestock drinking water standards regulated by Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 32 of 2017. If a discrepancy is found with the standards, it is continued with a literature study regarding the use of phytoremediation methods as a solution. Analysis of chemical parameters, including ion levels, using a reagent kit with the help of Spectroquant Pharo 300 UV Vis spectroscopy. The results of the analysis involve iron, fluoride, manganese, nitrate, nitrite, cyanide, hardness, cadmium, zinc metal and sulfate. All parameters meet quality standards, except for Fluoride (F-) levels which exceed the threshold of 1.5 mg/L, caused by the use of groundwater sources or wells which have the potential to have higher mineral content than surface water. The potential impacts of high fluoride levels on laying hens include reduced egg production, impaired growth, reproductive disorders, decreased water consumption, and decreased body weight. The literature review highlights phytoremediation methods involving plants as an economical and effective solution. Afforestation, such as planting grass or bushes around livestock areas and wells, or through creating ponds with aquatic plants, can significantly reduce fluoride levels in livestock drinking water.

Abstract

Jamblang River is a concern because it has a very turbid water color due to natural stone mining activities processed by the natural stone industry. One of the natural stones produced at the location of the Jamblang river is andesite rock which has a constituent component is silica. Silica is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen. Silica usually comes from minerals and rocks that dissolve in water. In fresh water, quartz silica is less soluble than amorphous silica. Enrichment of nutrients with silica favors the growth of diatoms, since diatoms need silica for cell wall biogenesis. The amount of silica present in water is not immediately absorbed by diatoms. The sampling method used is the purposive sampling method. The sampling locations set are 4 locations. The most interesting location is location 2 because there are 38 natural stone industries scattered around the location. There is also a simple linear regression statistical test on SPSS which shows the influence of silica levels on the abundance of benthic diatoms in the Jamblang river. The value of Sig. 0.000 shows that there is an influence of silica on plankton abundance in water because the value is < 0.05. The lowest silica content obtained at location 2 is also supported by the least abundance of diatoms found. The low abundance of diatoms is thought to be caused by high TSS numbers, low observed brightness, and low DO numbers.

Abstract

Limited agricultural land has caused a decline in the productivity of green mustard (Brassica juncea L.) as one of the nutritious vegetables that is widely consumed by the public. Cultivating vegetables using a hydroponic wick system is a solution to increase the productivity of green mustard. The expensive price of nutrient solutions can be combined with eco enzymes as a provider of essential nutrients for plants. This research aims to determine the effect of the combination of AB mix with eco enzyme on the growth of green mustard. The research was designed with RAL, 8 treatments, and 3 replications. Treatments include A1E0=AB mix 100%+0mL/L eco enzyme, A1E1=AB mix 100%+1mL/L eco enzyme, A1E2=AB mix 100%+2mL/L eco enzyme, A1E3=AB mix 100%+3mL eco enzyme, A2E0=AB mix 75%+0mL eco enzyme, A2E1=AB mix 75%+1mL/L eco enzyme, A2E2=AB mix 75%+2mL/L eco enzyme, and A2E3=AB mix 75%+3mL/L eco enzyme. The parameters measured were plant height, number of leaves, wet weight of roots and shoots, dry weight of roots and shoots, and leaf area. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance and DMRT testing with α=0.05. The combination of AB mix with eco enzyme had no effect on plant height, number and area of leaves, and wet weight of roots and shoots. However, the highest dry weight of roots and shoots in the A2E2 treatment showed significantly different results from the control treatment (A2E0). Eco enzymes act as nutrient substitutes which are influenced by sunlight, plant metabolism and water absorption capacity.

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus becomes a normal flora in humans, especially on the skin and in the nose. However, if it becomes excessive or if there are pathogenic variants, it can cause various health problems. The purpose of the study is to develop a molecular-based detection method for Staphylococcus aureus using the norA primer gene. The norA gene in Staphylococcus aureus is known to play a role in pathogenesis with its antibiotic resistance ability. This type of research is analytical observational with a cross-sectional method. The methods in the study include the isolation and identification of Staphylococcus aureus from healthcare facility equipment. Isolation and identification include bacterial isolation using Blood Agar Plate (BAP) media; isolate purification, Gram staining; biochemical tests using Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA) media, glucose tests, Voges Proskauer (VP) tests, catalase tests, and coagulase tests. Furthermore, S. aureus isolates were tested using a molecular-based method, namely Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). This method includes DNA isolation stages, qualitative testing with agarose gel electrophoresis, semi-quantitative testing with image J software, amplification with Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) using norA gene primers. The Mann-Whitney test results gave a value of p = 0.334 (p> 0.05) indicating the suitability between the culture method and the PCR method with the developed protocol in detecting Staphylococcus aureus. The developed method includes the use of base sequences in the norA gene primer, optimization of annealing and extension temperatures, and the concentration of DNA templates used.

Abstract

The way of life back to nature, including in the field of health, forms the habit of using plants as traditional medicine. Traditional medicine is indicated to be able to cure a variety of diseases. As with the leaves of Ciplukan (Physalis peruviana L.) by the people of Desa Wanasuka Kecamatan Pangalengan Kabupaten Bandung is considered to be used as a traditional medicine for inflammatory diseases such as rheumatism, asthma, and gastritis (maag) due to side effects and toxicity produced relatively small when compared with modern medicine. The aim of this study is to identify the potential of the secondary metabolite compound found in the leaves of the Ciplulan (Physalis peruviana L.) as a candidate for anti-inflammatory drugs. These research methods are molecular methods of docking through physical chemical properties testing, pharmacokinetic profiles of test compounds through site Pre-ADMET (Absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity) and Lipinski Rule of Five. The results of this study showed that the binding affinity of caffeic acid compounds with PTGS2 receptors (PDB ID: 5F19) showed a more negative result compared to the comparative drugs Aspirin and Ibuprofen -7.4. There was a molecular interaction similar to Aspirin, in which the addition of amino acid residues from ASN 382 and TYR 385 produces a strong irreversible inhibition of PTGS2 (PDB ID: 5F19) and is predicted to inhibit prostaglandin H synthase and indicate that caffeic acid is capable of producing irreverible inactivation of PTGS2 (PDB ID:5F19). So potentially a candidate for a safer anti inflammatory drug for the body. Because it has almost the same or close potential as Aspirin against inflammatory diseases.
