Full text linkThis study aims to evaluate and compare the effects of the combination of ketamine-medetomidine and ketamine-acepromazine anesthesia on pig electrocardiogram (ECG) images. The study was conducted to see the ECG Leads II in six pigs which were divided into two groups. Group I (K1) was given a combination of ketamine (10 mg/kg BW) and medetomidine (0.08 mg/kg BW), while Group II (K2) was given a combination of ketamine (22 mg/kg BW) and acepromazine (1.1 mg/kg BW) intramuscularly. ECG recording was performed after the pigs were anesthetized at the surgical stage by attaching the recording electrodes to the front wall of the chest, front left and right ankles, and back right and left back ankles. The ECG recording used 1 voltage (1 cm = 1mV) with a speed of 25 mm/sec. The parameters observed were heart rate frequency, heart rhythm, P duration, P amplitude, PR interval, R amplitude, QRS interval, QT interval, ST segment, T wave, and Mean Electrical Axis (MEA). Data obtained from this study were analyzed by T-test. The results showed that K1 had an average heart rate of 100 x/minute, regular heart rhythm, P duration of 0.07 sec, P amplitude of 0.27 mV, PR interval of 0.17 sec, R amplitude of 0.75 mV, QRS interval of 0.05 sec, QT interval of 0.20 sec, ST segment of 0.17sec, T wave of 0.17 mV, and MEA of 83.60; meanwhile, K2 had an average heart rate of 122 x/minute, regular heart rhythm, P duration of 0.06 mm/sec, P amplitude of 0.23 mV, PR interval of 0.14 sec, R amplitude of 0.80 mV, QRS interval of 0.04 sec, QT interval of 0.16 sec, ST segment of 0.14 sec, T wave of 0.12 mV, and MEA of 68.60. The ketamine-medetomidine combination produced good quality of anesthetics for the cardiovascular system

Full text linkThis study aims to investigate the type, prevalence, and intensity of endoparasites infecting the organs of blood cockles (Anadara granosa) in the waters of Aceh Besar, Indonesia. A purposive sampling method was conducted from March to August 2020 consisting of two sampling sites, namely the waters of Ujung Pancu and Krueng Raya. Endoparasite identification and analysis was carried out at the Parasite Laboratory of the Fish Quarantine Center, Quality Control and Safety of Fishery Products in Blang Bintang, Aceh Besar. The results showed that there were two types of endoparasites living in the blood cockles: namely, Perkinsus sp., which belong to the group Protozoa, and Spiroxys sp. of the Nematode class. The prevalence levels of Perkinsus sp. was 73.33% and were found in the waters of Ujung Pancu; while the lowest prevalence level was 20% in blood cockles that were infected with Spiroxys sp., which were found both in Ujung Pancu and Krueng Raya. The highest intensity level was infections of Perkinsus sp. with a value of 89 ind/species in the Krueng Raya site. The lowest intensity value was infections of Spiroxys with a value of 2 ind/species in Krueng Raya and 2.3 ind/species in Ujung Panc
ESTROGEN HORMONE PROFILE AND ESTRUS RESPONSE OF THIN TAILED EWES SYNCHRONIZED WITH CONTROLLED INTERNAL DRUG RELEASE
Full text linkThis research was conducted to identify the estrogen hormone profile and estrus response in the thin tailed ewes synchronized with controlled internal drug release (CIDR) implant. This research was carried out by employing 8 thin tailed ewes, CIDR, and estrogen kit. The ewes were distributed into: 3 ewes as control group and 5 ewes as treated group (with 12 days-CIDR implantation). Ewes were raised in the Sidomukti farm group, Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta. The data obtained were estrogen hormone profile during estrus examined by using ELISA method and estrus response marked with the reddening and oedema of vulva, mucus vaginal discharge, behavioral changes, vaginal pH, and superficial cells population. The data were analyzed by applying independent sample T-test. The result did not show any significant difference (P0.05) in the normal range between the control and CIDR group in estrogen hormone profile, estrus response, and pH level, but showed significant differences with positive correlation (P0.05) in population of superficial cells. In conclusion, CIDR was an effective tool for estrus synchronization at the farmer group, and gave positive estrus response towards thin tailed ewes with estrogen hormone profile, pH level, and superficial cell percentage on the normal range
COFFEE CONSUMPTION MAY DECREASE THE SERUM CREATININE AND PLASMA MALONDIALDEHYDE LEVELS IN RATS WITH HYPERURICEMIA INDUCED BY A HIGH PURINE DIET
Full text linkThe aim of this research was to determine the effect of coffee on creatinine and plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) level in rats fed on high purine diet. A total of 24 male Wistar rats divided into 4 groups of 6 rats each. Beef broth were given to 3 groups (K1, P1, P2) for thirty days. Beef broth administration were followed by giving coffee (caffeinated= P1 or by a decaffeinated= P2, 144 mg/200 g BW). Serum creatinine levels and plasma MDA were examined periodically on day 0, 15, and 30. Data were analyzed by multivariate analysis of variance or MANOVA test (CI= 95%, P0.05). Coffee administration (caffeinated and decaffeinated) may decrease the serum creatinine (day-30, K1= 3.17+ 0.69; P1= 1.63+0.11; P2= 1.14+0.08) and MDA levels (day-30, K1= 9.8+0.28; P1= 5.80+0.55, P2= 3.87+3.26) after 30 days of treatment (P= 0.000 for creatinine and MDA levels in K1, P1, P2 groups). A lower serum creatinine and MDA levels can be found in decaffeinated coffee grup. Coffee consumption for 30 days (especially decaffeinated) may decrease serum creatinine and plasma MDA in rat induced by a high purine diet
CHARACTERIZATION OF MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS FROM WHITE ADIPOSE TISSUE OF Macaca fascicularis
Full text linkMesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from white adipose tissue are considered to be an appropriate therapeutic candidate for various human diseases due to their natural ability to maintain homeostasis. They have also been considered for use as a therapeutic alternative due to their sufficient availability and ease of harvesting. MSC play an important role in the process of adipogenesis and energy metabolism that is directly related to the pathogenesis of various degenerative diseases and metabolic syndromes. The purpose of this study was to obtain MSC cultures from white adipose tissue biopsied from three adult males Macaca fascicularis and to evaluate these cultures qualitatively and quantitatively regarding their characteristics and ability to differentiate. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to confirm the expression of mesenchymal stem cell-specific gene markers, and a specific growth medium was used to differentiate these cells into adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes. The results obtained showed that the MSC culture from M. fascicularis WAT had a fibroblast-like morphology with a spindle shape. The MSC markers of CD73, CD90 and CD105, were also expressed. The MSC culture was also able to differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes. Based on these results, white adipose tissue from Macaca fascicularis was found to have potential as a source of MSC
HYPOGLYCAEMIC EFFECTS OF JAVANESE GINSENG (Talinum paniculatum (Jacq.) Gaertn.) ROOT INFUSION ON ALLOXAN-INDUCED DIABETIC RATS
Full text linkTo examine whether Javanese ginseng root has an antihyperglycaemic effect, twenty-one male Rattus norvegicus rats were randomly divided into four groups: negative control (n= 3), positive control (n= 4), treatment (n= 7), and placebo (n= 7). Alloxan was injected intraperitoneally at a single dose of 80 mg/kg BW to rats to induce hyperglycaemia. Infusion of Javanese ginseng root or distilled water was given at a dose of 2% w/v solution with a volume of 1.8 mL/200 g BW per day for 14 days through an enteral feeding tube to either the treatment or placebo group, respectively. Blood glucose levels were measured using the colorimetric method. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine differences in the mean of delta blood glucose (post intervention minus post alloxan blood glucose levels) among groups, followed by Tukeys post hoc analysis. A P value 0.05 was considered statistically significant. There was a significant difference (P= 0.0001) in delta blood glucose among groups. Post hoc analysis revealed that delta blood glucose in the treatment group (-102.992.26 mg/dL) was significantly (P= 0.0001) greater than in the placebo (2.450.29 mg/dL), positive control (3.050.70 mg/dL) and negative control (1.600.17 mg/dL) grou p. In conclusion, Javanese ginseng root has potential as a hypoglycemic agent in alloxan-induced diabetic animal model

No full textIndonesia is a country with high birth rate and the rate continues to increase each year. Methods to reduce high birth rate are needed, especially herbal based contraceptives. This research aims to study the possibility of Calina papaya leaf ethanolic extract as an antispermatogenic agent which hopefully could be expanded into natural antifertiliy drug candidate. Research was done using 24 white male Wistar rats divided into four groups. Dosages were given as follows: 0 mg/Kg W (control group), 100 mg/Kg W (P1), 200 mg/Kg W (P2) and 300 mg/Kg W (P3). Treatment was given in 30 days period. Rats were sacrificed on Day 31 and the testes were taken. Testes were then made into histological specimen using paraffin block and stained using Haematoxylin-Eosin. The diameter and surface area of seminiferous tubules, lumen surface area, and spermatogenesis index were then observed. Results showed that there is a significant difference (p0.05) on lumen surface area and spermatogenesis index between control and treatment groups. It is also found that the optimum dosage given to attain the desirable effect is 300 mg/Kg W. There is no significant difference found on surface area and diameter of tubulus seminiferous between control and treatment group (p0.05). Based on the results, papaya leaf (Calina variety) ethanolic extract has the potential a natural antispermatogenic with the optimum dose of 300 mg/Kg W
SENSITIVITY OF Microsporum canis ISOLATED FROM DOGS TOWARDS ANTIFUNGALS
Full text linkThe dermatophytosis treatment in dogs can fail due to dermatophyte resistance to antifungals. The purpose of this study is to determine the antifungal sensitivity of dermatophyte Microsporum canis (M. canis) isolated from dogs with dermatophyte. A total of 17 M. canis dog isolateswere tested for sensitivity to 25 g fluconazole, 25 g griseofulvin, 15 g ketoconazole and 30 g terbinafine, using the disc diffusion method.The M. canis isolates were cultured on Sabouraud's Dextrose Agar media, placed an antifungal disc, and then incubated at 28 C for 7 days. Thediameter of inhibition zone was measured, then compared with the standard, to determine whether they were sensitive, intermediate or resistant.The results of this study indicate that 16 isolates were sensitive to fluconazole; 17 isolates were sensitive to griseofulvin, ketoconazole andterbinafine; and one isolate was intermediate to fluconazole. Based on these results, it is concluded that all 17 (100%) isolates are sensitive to theantifungals griseofulvin, ketoconazole, terbinafine, and 16 (94%) isolates are sensitive to fluconazole. Thus, the four antifungals can be selectedto treat dermatophytes in dogs
