Abstract

This research focuses on the characterization of adhesin and receptor molecules on the gastric epithelium of mice to understand the pathogenesis mechanisms of Helicobacter pylori infection and its potential in the development of diagnostic materials. Infection by H. pylori begins with the colonization process on the surface of the gastric mucosa, where the bacteria use various attachment factors, including pili and outer membrane proteins (OMPs), to adhere to host cells. This study involves the isolation of H. pylori pili using the pili cutter method and the isolation of hemagglutinin protein from OMPs through centrifugation and dialysis processes. These proteins were then analyzed through hemagglutination assays, SDS-PAGE, Western blotting, as well as adhesion and immunohistochemistry tests to evaluate the specific interactions between H. pylori adhesins and gastric epithelial cells. The results identified adhesins such as BabA and SabA, which play a crucial role in H. pylori adhesion to the gastric epithelium, particularly by binding to Lewis blood group antigens. Additionally, it is suspected that there are other adhesin proteins that may originate from the tip of H. pylori pili associated with the type IV secretion system (T4SS). Hemagglutination assays demonstrated significant hemagglutination activity in the adhesin proteins, while Western blotting results showed specific interactions between the adhesin proteins and antibodies. Furthermore, adhesion and immunohistochemistry tests confirmed the ability of H. pylori adhesins to adhere to mouse gastric epithelial cells. These findings enhance our understanding of the role of adhesins in the pathogenesis of H. pylori infection, particularly during the early stages of colonization, and open up opportunities for the development of diagnostic materials that can detect the presence of H. pylori based on adhesin-receptor interactions. This research provides a scientific foundation for the development of new strategies in the diagnosis and management of H. pylori infection.

Abstract

Laying hens are a type of livestock that is widely cultivated in almost all regions in Indonesia. However, laying hens are also susceptible to many diseases caused by bacteria and viruses. Avian Influenza (AI) virus is one example of a virus that can harm farmers because it can cause high mortality rates. The presence of disease cases caused by viruses can be prevented by increasing the antibody titer in laying hens. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of Natural Guard in drinking water on increasing AI antibody titer in laying hens. This study was experimental in nature using 24 samples. Laying hens were divided into four groups: P0 (control, no treatment), P1 (0.1 ml/L), P2 (0.2 ml/L), and P3 (0.3 ml/L) of Natural Guard given daily for 30 days. Antibody titers were measured using the hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test. The results of the analysis showed that the highest average antibody titer was found in the P1 group, but the ANOVA test showed no significant difference between treatment groups (p>0.05). Thus, the administration of Natural Guard had no significant effect on increasing AI antibody titer in laying hens. Future research is recommended to use a higher dose and appropriate sampling time during the peak of antibody formation.

Abstract

  The long-tailed macaque is a monkey species found in various habitats, including primary and secondary forests. One population of long-tailed macaques in Bali can be found in the Monkey Forest, Ubud, Gianyar Regency. The normal oral flora of long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) plays a crucial role in their health and has potential impacts on the environment. Factors such as environment, diet, and age influence the health of long-tailed macaques living in the Monkey Forest, Ubud. This study aims to identify the bacterial present on the oral mucosa of long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis) in the Monkey Forest, Ubud, and to assess their potential pathogenicity. The research design used in this study is observational with a cross-sectional study approach. Samples were collected using cotton swabs from the oral mucosa of long-tailed macaques. The bacterial identification was conducted using two agar media, namely Sheep Blood Agar (SBA) and MacConkey Agar (MCA), followed by biochemical tests. The data obtained in this study were analyzed descriptively. Based on the results of the conducted research, it can be concluded that three types of bacteria were found: Streptococcus sp. (53.3%), Fusobacterium sp. (40%), and Staphylococcus sp. (6.67%). Among the three bacteria identified, 46.67% have the potential to be pathogenic, namely Streptococcus sp. and Staphylococcus sp. Further studies are needed using molecular methods to specifically identify the bacterial species.

Abstract

Etawa crossbred goats are goats that are the result of crossbreeding between Kacang goats and Etawa goats. This study aims to determine the correlation and diversity of locomotor size and body height of Etawa crossbred goats (PE) in Umejero Village, Busungbiu District, Buleleng, Bali. A total of 81 PE goats consisting of 44 male PE goats and 37 female PE goats were used in this study. The variables observed were the length of the upper front leg, the length of the middle front leg, the length of the lower front leg, the length of the upper hind leg, the length of the middle hind leg, the length of the lower hind leg, shoulder height, and hip height. The data obtained were analyzed using biplot analysis. The results showed that there was a positive correlation between hip height and the length of the upper, middle, and lower hind legs. Shoulder height was also positively correlated with the length of the upper, middle, and lower front legs. There was no significant difference in diversity (P>0.05) between the size of the locomotor and the height of PE goats. PE goats in quadrant I on the biplot graph have above average body size and have the potential to be used as seeds or fattened. PE goats in quadrant III have below average body size and are not good for use as seeds or fattened. Shoulder height and hip height are the most important variables to measure in the selection of PE goats in Umejero village. It is recommended to select breeding stock with a minimum standard of 70.6 cm shoulder height and 84.2 cm hip height in order to obtain livestock with above average growth performance.

Abstract

Sambar deer (Rusa unicolor) is one of four native deer species in Indonesia that are protected. The conservation status of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in the wild is categorized as an endangered species with the status Vulnerable. One effort to maintain the sustainability of sambar deer is to conduct ex-situ conservation outside its natural habitat. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the management of the implementation of captivity on Jl. Bromo, Bukit Hindu, Jekan Raya, Palangka Raya. Things that need to be evaluated include management aspects of housing, feeding, health care and reproduction as well as the welfare level of Sambar deer in captivity. The requirements for the level of animal welfare are freedom from hunger and thirst, freedom from environmental discomfort, freedom from pain, injury and disease, freedom from fear and stress, and freedom to behave naturally. This study used survey, observation, measurement, interview and literature study methods. The results of the study showed that the level of deer captivity management, in terms of cage management, feed management, and health management, showed a poor category. The animal health biosecurity program has also not been implemented. Only in terms of reproductive management, it is in the good category, because during the 16-year period (2008 to 2024) there was a significant increase in the number of Sambar deer by 45 or an average of 3 per year with a death rate of 2 (4.4%). The birth ratio was 46% male and 54% female. Meanwhile, from the level of animal welfare, it shows that the achievement of the implementation of the welfare of sambar deer in captivity in Palangka Raya City based on the assessment of the five criteria of freedom in animal welfare is in the sufficient category with an average achievement value of 69.5%.

Abstract

Bronchopneumonia is an inflammatory condition involving the bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli in the lungs. This article aims to report the management of chronic bronchopneumonia in a 21-month-old male local cat weighing 4.6 kg who had clinical signs of a cold for two months. Clinical signs included mucopurulent nasal discharge and stridor. Initial physical examination showed normal activity, but dry rales were found on lung auscultation. Supportive examinations performed included hematology, cytology of nasal swabs, radiography, and bacterial culture. Hematology revealed lymphocytosis and decreased granulocytes, while swab cytology showed neutrophils. Radiographs indicated bronchial thickening as well as radiopaque patches in the lungs, leading to the diagnosis of chronic bronchopneumonia. Bacterial culture showed infection by Bacillus sp. and Staphylococcus sp. Treatment included antibiotic doxycycline at 10 mg/kg BW for three weeks and anti-inflammatory methylprednisolone at 0.43 mg/kg BW for seven days. Evaluation was carried out for three weeks, showing significant improvement in clinical conditions, including the disappearance of mucopurulent discharge and stridor, as well as normalization of auscultation and radiographic results. At the end of therapy, hematological examination results also showed lymphocyte and granulocyte values within normal limits. The advice for owners is to pay attention to early signs of respiratory distress such as prolonged runny nose, stridor, and mucopurulent discharge. Prompt treatment of the disease can prevent the animal's condition from getting worse, speed up recovery and improve the pet's quality of life.
