Abstract

Currently, telemetry appeared as a common method to reveal home range and movement of animal. However, the telemetry method was not applied for small-clawed otter yet. We have spent efforts to use the telemetry methods from March to August 2016 in a rice field landscape in Lubuk Alung district, Padang Pariaman regency, West Sumatra. We trapped individuals of small-clawed otters (Aonyx cinereus) using leg-hold traps and box traps. We implanted radio transmitter intraperitoneally. Movement of the animal was recorded using triangulation methods. Two male individuals of small-clawed otters were captured. One individual died soon after the transmitter implantation and another individual was successfully implanted and released. However the individual were detected for 28 hours only. In this paper, we described the efforts and problems appeared from the trapping, transmitter implantation, releasing and radio tracking process.

Abstract

The objective of present study was to identify bioactivity of antibacterial Indonesian Seagrass Thalassia hemprichii dan Enhalus acoroides from Karang Tirta Beach, Padang City, West Sumatera. This is a preliminary research for a new alternative antibiotic from Seagrass in Indonesia. In this study the seagrass was examined by a maceration process and using the rotary evaporator to obtain viscous extract. The material for the bioactivity testing was performed upon several intended bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Stapillococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis. The bioactivity testing was performed by using the method of resazurin and MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration), which is determined by looking at well blue-colored at the smallest concentration. The result revealed that the best antibacterial bioactivity of Thalassia hemprichii extract was a total of 62.50 μg/mL N-hexane solvent against Escherichia coli and Stapillococcus aureus bacteria. While the best antibacterial bioactivity of Enhalus acoroides extract is 15.62 μg/mL of N-hexane solvent against Stapillococcus aureus.
