Relationship Between Waist Circumference with HS-CRP (High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein) Levels in Men
High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels are inflammatory markers that can be influenced by visceral adipose tissue, especially since sex hormones also influence fat storage patterns and the incidence of central obesity. This study examined the relationship between waist circumference and hs-CRP levels in men. This study used an analytical observational study type with a cross-sectional approach. Statistical analysis of 24 samples using the non-parametric Rank-Spearman test obtained a significance value (p < 0.05); r = 0.763. This study shows a significant relationship between men's waist circumference and Hs-CRP levels. Further research can pay attention to variables that can increase Hs-CRP levels, such as physical activity, food intake, other infectious diseases, and examination of blood glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure levels
A Purification Process of Wosting Oil Using CaO Adsorbent Based on Blood Shell Shells (Anadara granosa)
Blood clam shells are inorganic materials rich in content obtained from heating at high temperatures, so they can be used as adsorbent. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of calcination temperature of blood clam shell adsorbents, used to test the quality of used cooking oil (wosting oil). In this study, three calcination temperature variations were used, namely 800 ℃, 900 ℃ and 1000 ℃ for 2 hours each. Then the quality of adsorbent was tested by knowing oxide element with SEM. The adsorption process was carried out using the contact method by immersing the adsorbent in wosting oil for one hour. Wosting oil that has been adsorbed is then tested for quality, namely: free fatty acid content, peroxide number, water content, viscosity, density, physical properties (odor and color). The results obtained are: The best quality of adsorbent was obtained at a calcination temperature of 1000 ℃ which was analyzed through three parameters namely, content, density value and surface area. The best quality of wosting oil is obtained in used cooking oil with 3 times heating with calcined adsorbent at 1000 ℃ which is analyzed based on several parameters as previously explained

The Impact of Coal Mining on Ant (Formicidae) Abundance in Rice Field Areas, East Merapi, Lahat Regency, South Sumatra
The impact of coal mining pollution on rice fields located near mining areas can affect the health of communities that consume the harvested rice. Ants can serve as bioindicators of environmental pollution. This study aims to investigate the diversity of ants in rice fields located near and far from coal mining areas. The results show differences in ant diversity between rice fields near and far from the coal mining site. Ant species found in the rice field near the mining area included Leptogenys chamela (44 individuals), Solenopsis invicta (4 individuals), and Camponotus texanus (8 individuals). In contrast, in the rice field farther from the mining area, seven species were found: Solenopsis invicta (5 individuals), Myopias emeryi (71 individuals), Tetraponera rufonigra (37 individuals), Paraponera clavata (7 individuals), Leptogenys chamela (5 individuals), Dolichoderus sp. (1 individual), and Camponotus texanus (13 individuals). Ant abundance was higher in the rice field located farther from the coal mining area compared to the one located nearby
Physical Processing of Various Forage Plants and Their Application in Aquafeed Development
Feed is a crucial element in aquaculture, directly influencing the growth and reproduction of aquatic organisms. This study aims to explore the potential of forage-based ingredients as alternative feed sources to reduce reliance on costly conventional inputs such as fish meal. Various locally available forages, including aquatic plants (Azolla sp., Lemna sp., and water hyacinth), tree legumes (leucaena and calliandra), and tuber crops (cassava leaves), were evaluated based on their nutritional composition and feasibility for use in aquafeed. Processing methods such as physical (drying, grinding, pelletizing), chemical (acid and enzyme addition), and biological (fermentation using Aspergillus niger or rumen enzymes) treatments were applied to enhance digestibility and reduce antinutritional factors. Analytical assessments showed that these treatments significantly lowered crude fiber content while increasing protein concentration and improving palatability. Fermented leucaena leaves and azolla powder, for instance, demonstrated improved nutritional profiles and potential for inclusion in practical feed formulations. The study concludes that forage-based feed processing improves feed efficiency and supports sustainable, low-cost aquaculture. Continued innovation in forage processing technology is recommended to support national feed self-sufficiency goals and promote environmentally friendly aquaculture practices
Bio-Reclamation Evaluation of Former Gold Mine Land: Pre- and Post-Reclamation Soil Management Conditions
Former gold mining land, especially those abandoned without reclamation, experiences serious physical, chemical, and biological degradation, and is potentially contaminated with heavy metals such as mercury (Hg). This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of organic farming-based bioreclamation and good soil management, using dwarf elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) and chicken manure in improving the condition of former gold mining land. The parameters analyzed include physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil, as well as mercury levels in the soil and plants. The results showed that the soil quality index increased from 0.32 (low) to 0.62 (good). The organic C content increased from 0.91% to 2.16%, soil pH increased from 3.53 to 5.03, and the availability of phosphorus and potassium also increased. The population of methyl mercury-reducing bacteria increased 22.4 - 58.2 times, indicating improved microbial adaptation to the environment. Mercury content in plant tissue decreased drastically from 11.60 mg/kg to 0.11 mg/kg or a decrease of 99.05%, although still slightly exceeding the threshold. The conclusion is that reclamation with an organic approach and effective soil management not only improves soil fertility and quality, but also reduces the risk of heavy metal poisoning
Estimation of Mangrove Canopy Cover in The Carocok Tarusan Tourist Area
The mangrove canopy cover is the uppermost layer in the mangrove vegetation group, which is formed by the crown (leaf group) of mangrove vegetation and covers the layer below. The purpose of the study is to determine the estimation of mangrove canopy cover in the Carocok area using the MonMang v2.0 application and to determine the influence of environmental factors on the mangrove canopy cover in the Carocok area. This research was conducted from December 2023 to January 2024 in the Carocok Tarusan tourist area, Pesisir Selatan Regency, West Sumatra.The method used in this study is the transect line method with the placement of transects carried out from the coastline to the land that has true mangrove vegetation. In the transect line, 20 plots were mapped with a size of 5 x 5 m. Then, the crown cover was measured using the MonMang v2.0 application using the hemispherical photography method on each plot. The results of the study show that the average mangrove canopy cover in this Carocok area is 69.19% and is classified as a medium category. The results of the study also showed that environmental factors between salinity, temperature, and pH had an influence on the mangrove canopy cover in the Carocok Tarusan area
Abundance of Plankton Types and Diversity in The Water of Teluk Nare, North Lombok
Teluk Nare, situated in North Lombok Regency, is a coastal region abundant in marine resources, serving as a hub for fisheries and marine tourism. This research seeks to evaluate the abundance and diversity of plankton as a measure of the ecological health of Teluk Nare’s aquatic environment. Sampling was conducted in February 2025 across ten stations using the purposive sampling technique. Water samples were collected with a plankton net, preserved using Lugol’s solution, and analyzed at the University of Mataram’s Hydrobiology Laboratory. The findings revealed 18 plankton genera from seven classes, with Coscinodiscus, Copepoda, and Nauplius being the most prevalent across all stations. Plankton abundance ranged from 12,000 to 32,333 cells per liter, with the highest concentrations observed near river estuaries. The diversity index indicated moderate levels (1.67–2.08), the evenness index was high (0.71–0.89), and the dominance index was low (0.16–0.26), suggesting no single dominant species and a relatively stable ecosystem. Factors such as currents, salinity, and water transparency were found to influence plankton distribution and abundance. These results offer valuable insights for the sustainable management of Teluk Nare’s coastal ecosystem
Effect of Bokashi on Growth of Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq) Seedlings in Main Nursery in Different Soil Layer
Limited fertile land encourages the use of subsoil for oil palm nurseries, despite its low organic matter content and dense structure. This study aims to examine the effect of bokashi varieties on the growth of oil palm seedlings in different soil layers. The study was conducted at KP2 Instiper Yogyakarta, Kalikuning Village, Maguwoharjo, Sleman, from January 15 to April 15, 2025 using a completely randomized design (CRD) with two factors, namely bokashi varieties (NPK control, sugarcane filter cake bokashi, water hyacinth, and LCC) and soil layers (topsoil and subsoil Regosol soil), with a mixing ratio of 1:1. Each treatment combination was repeated five times with a total of 40 seedlings. Data analysis was carried out through analysis of variance, followed by the DMRT test at a significance level of 5%. The results showed a significant interaction between bokashi varieties and soil layers on fresh and dry root weight, where all bokashi showed better results than the NPK control, with water hyacinth bokashi as the best. In conclusion, the use of bokashi, particularly from water hyacinth, can enhance the root growth of oil palm seedlings. These findings recommend the use of local organic materials as an alternative fertilizer for marginal subsoil
The Effectiveness of Breadfruit Leaf Ethanol Extract to Reduce Level of Blood Glucose Levels in Mice that Induced by Alloxan
Severe hyperglycemia symptoms can be brought on by elevated blood glucose levels. Diabetes mellitus will result if this occurs consistently over a period of years. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of breadfruit leaf extract on blood glucose reduction and the effects of alloxan on mice's weight. Data analysis using ANOVA at 5% confidence interval and LSD (Least Significant Difference) test. The research results showed that the K+ group (which was only induced by alloxan) experienced a significant decrease in blood glucose levels when breadfruit leaf extract was administered. Blood glucose level of mice was found to decrease by 61% (87.60 ± 1.07) at an effective dose of 22.4 mg/grbw/day (P3), which was almost the same as the blood glucose level of K (-) on day 0; in addition, the body weight of mice increased after a hyperglycemic episode when the ethanol extract of breadfruit leaves was administered
