Abstract

Macroinvertebrates are one of the bioindicators in aquatic ecosystems. The diversity and distribution patterns of functional groups of macroinvertebrate communities are assessed to determine water quality. The objective of this research was to figure out the abundance and distribution of macroinvertebrates in Watu Lumbung Beach, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta. This study was conducted in May 2022 with the quadrat transect method using 1×1 m quadrats along Watu Lumbung Beach, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta. Sampling was conducted at two randomly determined stations from the lowest low tide to the middle of the sea. The first station is located near Watu Lumbung reef, which has a distance of 50 m, while the second station is 250 m from the reef, so the distance between stations is 200 m. The Shannon-Weiner diversity index (H') was calculated by analyzing the data. The data obtained in this study are the results of the inventory of macroinvertebrate species at each sampling point and the number of individuals of each species. The results showed the abundance of macroinvertebrates on Watu Lumbung beach found as many as 16 species belonging to 13 families and classified into nine classes (Polychaeta, Malacostraca, Anthozoa, Echinoidea, Ophiuridae, Gastropoda, Polyplacophora, Pilidiophora and Demospongia). The family Ophiocomidae (Ophiocoma erinaceus and Ophiocoma scolopendrina) were the most abundant species at both observation stations. The diversity index is 1.94, which shows that the diversity of macroinvertebrates on Watu Lumbung Beach is categorized as moderate.

Abstract

Genetic quality improvement in local chickens can be achieved through crossbreeding, which has enhanced productivity and egg quality, satisfying consumer demand. To improve the quality of livestock products, it is crucial to assess the egg quality of chickens. This study evaluated the quality of eggs produced by F2 Mahkota Arab chickens bred from crossbreeding with F1 Mahkota Arab chickens. The research comprised several stages: chicken rearing, tests for egg shape index calculation, yolk index, albumin index, Haugh unit, and eggshell colour observation. The obtained results were compared with those of F1 Mahkota Arab chicken, Arab chicken, and Layer chicken. According to the study's findings, the F2 Mahkota Arab had an egg with a standard egg shape of 70% as per the egg shape index. The F2 Mahkota Arab chicken had a mean yolk index of 0.37±0.00, a mean albumin index of 0.121±0.005, and a mean Haugh unit of 91.99±1.13. The shell colour of their eggs belongs to the orange-white group, and the egg quality, including egg shape index, albumin index and Haugh unit, is higher than other chicken groups. Furthermore, the shell colour of F2 Mahkota Arab chicken eggs is whiter than other chicken groups.

Abstract

Thalassemia is a hereditary blood disorder characterized by reduced alpha or beta globin chain synthesis, independent of sex or age. While thalassemia minor often presents with mild or no symptoms, thalassemia major manifests with severe anemia, pallor, fatigue, decreased appetite, and recurrent infections from birth. The aim of this research is to describe the description of cases of thalassemia children at RSAB Harapan Kita. This research is a descriptive study with a cross-sectional design regarding the description of cases of thalassemia children. Study participants were pediatric patients diagnosed with thalassemia at the hospital. Inclusion criteria encompassed individuals younger than 19 years with a documented history of comorbidities. Exclusion criteria included patients with incomplete or damaged medical records and those aged 19 years or older. Medical record data that met the inclusion criteria was 48 subjects with a minimum sample size of 41 subjects.

Abstract

The testes are vital for spermatogenesis and steroid hormone production, thus serving as a critical biomarker for monitoring testicular function through organ development analysis. Until now, there has been no information on the morphoanatomical development of testicular organs in day-old Alabio ducks (DOD). This knowledge is crucial for optimizing reproductive strategies and manipulations. This study aimed to determine the growth and morphoanatomical development of testes in Alabio ducks during the starter period. A purposive sample of forty DOD male Alabio ducks was observed and measured weekly for eight weeks. Variables included testicular morphoanatomy, weight, liver weight, gonadal-somatic index (GSI), and hepatic-somatic index (HSI). Results indicate that bean-shaped, creamy-white testes are located in the abdominal cavity near the spine, attached dorsally and anterior to the kidneys. Testicular weight, length, reproductive tract weight and length, and GSI peaked at eight weeks (0.768 ± 0.06 g, 1.73 ± 0.20 cm, 0.79 ± 0.02 g, and 13.32 ± 0.65, respectively; p < 0.01). Testicular weight, liver weight, GSI, and HSI differed significantly weekly (p < 0.01). In conclusion, testicular weight in Alabio ducks increases steadily during the first eight weeks, with bean-shaped testes developing bilaterally in the abdominal cavity, attached dorsally and constrained by the mesorchial ligament.

Abstract

Endophytic bacteria play an important role for plants in assisting the efficient absorption of nutrients from the surrounding environment. Studies on endophytic bacteria in Avicennia marina plants are still relatively rare. This research aims to determine abilities of three bacterial endophytes and a control Bacillus subtilis infecting the host plant A. marina and conducted in ekowisata mangrove Gunung Anyar, Surabaya. Each endophyte isolates at the concentration of 102, 103, and 104 CFU/mL were used for inoculation, whereas each concentration was applied to 3 plants (triplicate). Every ± 1 m tall A. marina plant was injected with 2 × 500 µL of bacterial solution. Another three plants were chosen and injected with Lactose-Broth (LB) sterile medium. The leaf length and width of 2-4 leaves per plant were measured at day 0 before inoculation and after two weeks of inoculation. Data analysis using paired t-test resulted in no change in leaf area average before and after treatments. Despite the result, we observed that some of the treated plants produced flowers, whereas no flower was observed on control plants. In addition, there were infection zones detected around the infection area. Furthermore, we have observed Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) and siderophore production in all bacterial isolates. The results of this study show that acceleration in the development of A. marina, evidenced by a phase shift from vegetative to generative occurring within a two-week timeframe.

Abstract

Endophytic bacteria live symbiotically in plant tissues but do not hurt plants. Endophytic bacteria are widely used in the industrial sector as enzyme producers. This study aims to examine the potential of endophytic bacteria from the stems and roots of sea fern (Acrostichum aureum L.) as producers of hydrolytic enzymes and to determine their potential as α-amylase inhibitors. Macroscopic and biochemical tests characterized endophytic bacterial isolates. Hydrolytic enzyme activity test consisted of cellulase, lipase, and laccase enzyme. Isolates that were able to hydrolyze were tested for antidiabetic potential by α-amylase inhibitor test. A total of 24 bacterial isolates were selected for their ability to produce cellulase, lipase, and laccase. The results obtained 24 isolates of endophytic bacteria showed that as much as 33% of stem isolates and 52% of root isolates were able to produce hydrolytic enzymes. The α-amylase inhibition test results of the three endophytic bacteria tested were isolates A.T 2 (17%) and A.A 3 (8%) on 1% starch substrate, and A.T 2 (36%) on 2% starch substrate with a spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 540 nm. Endophytic bacteria isolated from the stems and roots of sea ferns can be developed as an alternative base material for herbal medicines for antidiabetics.
