Abstract

To provide a general overview of the microbial communities in environmentally conserved estuaries, the top 5 cm of sediment was sampled from the sandy estuary of the Shirakawa River and from the muddy estuary of the Midorikawa River. Higher amounts of organic matter were detected in the Midorikawa estuary sample than in the Shirakawa estuary sample. Measurement of redox potential revealed that the Shirakawa estuary was aerobic and the Midorikawa estuary was much less aerobic. Clone analysis was performed by targeting partial 16S rRNA gene sequences and using extracted DNA from the samples as a template. Various bacteria were detected, among which Gammaproteobacteria was dominant at both estuaries. Unclassified clones were detected in the Gammaproteobacteria group, mainly among samples from the Midorikawa estuary. Other detected bacterial groups were Alphaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, Chloroflexi, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes. All the Deltaproteobacteria clones were anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria. Those aerobic and anaerobic bacteria coexisted in the top 5 cm of the estuary sediments indicating the surface layer have active sulfur and carbon cycle. Abundance of aerobic Gammaproteobacteria may be an indicator for conserved estuaries. Keywords: conserved environment, clone analysis, estuary, microbial community, 16S rRNA gene.

Abstract

Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs) or so-called glycotoxin can be triggered by heated food in which the Maillard reaction occurs. One type of glycotoxins is CML. Accumulated N-Carboxymethyl-Lysine (CML) can cause inflammation of organs, e.g. liver. Rosella flowers contain anthocyanin compound that has anti-glycation and antioxidant effects. This study aimed to determine the effect of ethanol extract of Rosella on CML serum level, IL-6 level, and NF-ƙB activation in the liver of mice fed with baked food. This study used post-test design using 25 Wistar rats aged 3-4 months old that were divided into 5 groups, namely negative control group, positive control group, treatment groups given Rosella extract dose of 200mg.kgBW-1, 300mg.kgBW-1, and 400mg.kgBW-1. Baked feed was given for 12 weeks, and Rosella ethanol extract was administered in the 9th to 12th week. The examination on CML serum and IL-6 of the liver was using ELISA method. Immunofluorescent staining was used to determine NF-ƙB activation in the liver using a confocal microscope. CML serum is proven to increase significantly (p = 0.000). The effective dose of Rosella flower extract to prevent CML Serum increase is 200 mg.kgBW-1, whereas a dose of 400 mg.kgBW-1 can decrease IL-6 level and NF-ƙB activation. Ethanol extract of Rosella flower decrease the levels of N-carboxymethyl-lysine serum, IL-6, and NF-ƙB activation in the liver of rats given baked-food diet. Keywords: Advanced Glycation Endproducts (AGEs), Interleukin-6, N-Carboxymethyl-lysine, Rosella.

Abstract

Spermatozoa are male gametes that have an advantage in acting as gene transfer media (SMGT), because in transferring genetic material, sperm uses relatively natural vectors. This study was conducted to know sperm quality of Koi after short electroporation with different voltages using Gene Pulser. The study was conducted using a complete randomized design (RAL) with three (3) replications and five (5) treatments, namely: 10 V.cm-1, 20 V.cm-1, 30 V.cm-1, 40 V.cm-1, and 1 control. Electroporation was done with square wave, 1 ms duration of electroporation, 4 times of electroporation shocks with 0.1 s duration. The results showed that electroporation with different voltage levels significantly affected the motility and viability of sperm. Based on orthogonal polynomial analysis, it was known that the treatment affected motility and viability of sperm with a linear equation y = -0.9x + 5, 4 R² = 0.920 and r = 0.96 for motility and y = -11.26x + 91.61 R² = 0.823 and r = 0.91 for viability, meaning that the higher the level of electroporation the lower the viability and sperm motility produced. From the results of this study, it can be suggested that the electroporation of Koi sperm as a gene transfer medium should be performed at a voltage of 10 V.cm-1. Keywords: electroporation, Koi, sperm quality, transgenesis.

Abstract

This research was aimed to determine the effect of ant nest treatment (Myrmecodia pendans) on quail production and performance. Research sample was 250 quails. Ant nest was administered in 5 treatments and 5 replications: P0 (0%) as control treatment, P1 (0.2%), P2 (0.4%), P3 (0.6%), and P4 (0.8 %) treatments. Data were collected from quails at 28 days to 70 days old. Variables measured were the performance and quail's egg production. This study was designed using completely randomized design. Real significant difference was examined utilizing Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Analysis of variance result showed that ant nest provides significant influence to feed intake and Hen Day Production (P <0.05). The highest average of feed consumption is treatment P4 (0.8%), whereas treatment P0 (0%) was the lowest average for feed consumption. Feed conversion rate in treatment P4 (0.8%) was more efficient compared to other treatments. Ant nests administering did not result significantly different (P> 0.05) to feed conversion and egg mass. The results of the study concluded that higher ant nest administration is capable of increasing quails feed intake and Hen Day Production. Keywords: basal feed, flavonoids, productivity.

Abstract

Ikan Sidat or eel fish (Anguilla bicolor) is a popular fish commodity in domestic trade as well as for export commodity. The use of marine yeast as fodder suffers from some weaknesses since it contains nucleic acids and rigid thick cell walls that obstruct the absorbance of nutrition. Optimizing the use of marine yeast as fodder ingredients can be done by fragmenting and reducing the yeast. This research attempts at optimizing the use of marine yeast regarding its rate of growth, fodder efficiency and the survival rate of eel fish. This research employs the complete random design using 4 different treatments and 3 repetition. In the four treatments, the fodder contained protein (45%) and iso energy (3.600 kkal.kg-1 fodder), which were applied to the treatment A 0% (control), B 5% (complete), C 5% (fragmented) and D 5% (reduced). The parameters used in this study were survival rate, specific growth rate, ratio of fodder conversion, ratio of protein efficiency, energy retention, protein retention and rate of metabolism. The data of this study showed the best result in the treatment D, 5% (reduced), showing survival rate value of 95.56%, specific growth at 1.12, food conversion ratio of 2.27, protein efficiency ratio of 0.98, protein retention at 18.26%, energy retention of 16.57, and protein metabolism rate at 81.96%. Keywords: eel fish, growth, marine yeast.
