Abstract

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of commercial feed compared with non-concentrate formulated feed on the productivity of laying hens. The experiment was conducted at PT Sitinrola Organik, Bone Regency, for 14 days using 64 laying hens divided into two treatments: P0 (control/commercial feed) and P1 (non-concentrate feed), with 32 replications each. The observed parameters included feed intake, body weight gain, and egg production percentage. The results showed that feed intake in the P1 treatment was significantly lower than in P0 (p < 0.05). However, body weight gain did not differ significantly between treatments (p > 0.05), although a slight increase was observed in P1. In contrast, the egg production percentage in P1 decreased significantly compared with P0 (p < 0.05). The reduction in feed intake and egg production in P1 was likely influenced by the low quality and palatability of the feed due to the absence of concentrate as well as feed storage factors. In conclusion, non-concentrate feed was not able to fully replace commercial feed in supporting the optimal productivity of laying hens in the short term

Abstract

Rice bran is widely used as an animal feed ingredient due to its availability and relatively good nutrient content. Fermentation is commonly applied to improve its quality and stability. However, fermentation duration may influence the physical and organoleptic characteristics of the final product. This study aimed to evaluate the changes in physical and organoleptic characteristics (color, aroma, and texture) of rice bran fermented with 2% EM4 at different fermentation durations (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 days). This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach through direct visual and sensory observation. The observed parameters included color, aroma, and texture changes during the fermentation process. The results showed gradual and consistent changes over time. From day 4 to day 10, the rice bran exhibited a more homogeneous yellowish-brown color, a distinctive and stable fermented aroma, and a moist, smoother texture. On day 12, a slight decrease in moisture was observed, although the aroma and color remained stable. These findings indicate that fermentation duration influences the physical and organoleptic quality of rice bran, with day 8 to day 10 showing the most optimal characteristics. This study provides practical information regarding the appropriate fermentation duration to obtain physically stable and acceptable fermented rice bran as animal feed material

Abstract

Abstract Rice flour is a widely used as an intermediate ingredient in various processed food products; however, it has limitations in terms of protein and micronutrient ontent. The utilization of broken rice as a by-product of rice processing and the substitution of moringa leaf flour are expected to enhance the protein and micronutrient content of rice flour. This study aimed to evaluate the nutritional profile of rice flour substituted with moringa (Moringa oleifera) leaf flour as an intermediate product for functional food development. Substitution was conducted at moringa leaf flour concentrations of 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% based on the total flour weight. Proximate analysis was performed to determine moisture, ash, protein, fat, carbohydrate, and dietary fiber contents. The results showed that increasing the proportion of moringa leaf flour significantly increased moisture, ash, fat, protein, and dietary fiber contents, while carbohydrate content decreased with higher levels of moringa leaf flour substitution. These findings indicate that rice flour substituted with moringa leaf flour has strong potential as a nutrient-enriched intermediate product and may support the development of locally based healthy food products. Further studies are recommended to evaluate the physicochemical, functional, and sensory characteristics of final products derived from this composite flour.

Abstract

Mangosteen stem bark and rind are known to contain various bioactive compounds such as xanthones, flavonoids, and polyphenols, which can function as antioxidants. To measure the level of antioxidant ability of stem bark and mangosteen fruit peel extracts, one method that is often used is the 2,2-Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of stem bark and fruit peel extracts of Garcinia mangostana L using the 2,2- Diphenyl-1-Picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. Samples of stem bark and fruit peel were extracted by maceration method after that followed by antioxidant activity testing with DPPH method. The results showed that the stem bark extract of G. mangostana L. had an LC50 value of 42,95 ppm, while the fruit peel extract showed a lower LC50 value of 12,13 ppm, indicating that both had very strong antioxidant activity. The content of bioactive compounds such as phenolics, flavonoids, and xanthones is the main cause of the high antioxidant activity, making G. mangostana L. stem bark and fruit peel extracts potential therapeutic agents in the prevention and treatment of oxidative stress-related diseases.

Abstract

More than 800 million people worldwide experience type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), characterized by progressive pancreatic β-cell deterioration inadequately addressed by conventional treatments. This review assesses stem cell-based interventions versus standard therapy for β-cell functional restoration. Systematic review aims to comprehensively evaluate and compare the effectiveness of stem cell therapy versus conventional therapy in improving pancreatic β-cell function in type 2 diabetes patients. Systematic searches of PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus from January 2015 to October 2025 retrieved 125 records. After duplicate removal and screening, 17 studies met the general inclusion criteria, of which six randomized controlled trials (RCTs) involving 339 participants were eligible for analysis. Primary outcomes were C-peptide concentrations, HOMA-β, HbA1c, insulin requirements, and safety parameters. The results showed that stem cell interventions consistently elevated fasting C-peptide levels to 1.9±1.0 ng/mL (versus 0.7±0.4 ng/mL in controls). Mean HbA1c reductions reached 0.67% (intervention 7.52±1.07% versus placebo 8.19±1.02%). Insulin dosage requirements decreased markedly, with reductions approaching 46.7%. Safety assessment remained limited due to incomplete adverse event documentation across included studies. Interpretation is further constrained by small trial sizes (23–91 participants) and protocol heterogeneity across cell sources, administration routes, and follow-up durations. Stem cell-based therapies demonstrate encouraging potential for enhancing pancreatic β-cell function in T2DM patients. Insufficient long-term follow-up data and inadequate safety surveillance preclude definitive clinical recommendations, supporting their application exclusively within structured clinical trial settings.
