CORRELATION BETWEEN ESTROGEN HORMONE CONCENTRATION AND ESTROUS CYCLE OF RAT FED SOYBEAN FLOUR AND TEMPEH FLOUR
Get PDFThe objective of this research was to examine the correlation between estrogen level and estrous cycle of rat fed with soybean flour and tempeh flour. A completely randomized design was applied in this study with 6 treatment groups and 5 replications. Rats in group 1, 2, and 3 were non-ovariectomized rats which were fed with pellet, 10 g soybean flour/100 g body weight/day, and 10 g tempeh flour/ 100 g body weight/day, respectively. The rats in group 4, 5, qnd 6 were ovariectomized rat which were fed with pellet, 10 g soybean flour/100 g body weight/day, and 10 g tempeh flour/100 g body weight/day, respectively. The rats were after fed with pellet, soybean and tempeh flour for 4 weeks, the estrous cycle phases of rats were examined based on the presence of vaginal epithelial cells and the number of qualitative vaginal epithelial cells, while the estrogen concentrations in serum were measured by radioimmunoassay method. The data was analyzed using analysis of variance and followed by Duncan multiple range test at 95% confidence. Non-ovariectomized rats given tempeh flour have longer estrus cycle than the non-ovariectomized rats which given soybean flour. The isoflavon contained in tempeh flour and soybean flour induced proliferation and cornification of vaginal epithelial cell. Feeding the soybean flour and tempeh flour to ovariectomized rats could optimize the estrogen hormone in initiating the estrus phase, in which of the tempeh flour addition had better effect than soybean flour. Correlation between the level of estrogen to the length of estrous cycle in both nonovariectomized rats and ovariectomized rats was positive, in which the higher the levels of estrogen the longer the length of estrous cycle
THE EFFECT OF MAGNETIC FIELD ON ANTIBIOTIC INHIBITION FOR Escherichia coli AND Bacillus sp.
Get PDFThis study was aimed to test the growth of bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Bacillus sp. which were exposed to magnetic fields. In the first stage of the study, the effect of magnetic fields on the growth of E. coli and Bacillus sp were observed. The futher study was aimed to evaluate the effect of magnetic field on antibiotic sensitivity againts the growth of E. coli and Bacillus sp. The magnetic fields treatments were 0.0 mT (control), 0.1 mT, 0.2 mT, 0.3 mT which were exposed for 10 hours for each treatment. Five antibiotics (trimethoprim, ampicillin, nalidixic acid, streptomycin and chloramphenicol) were used for each bacteria. The result showed that the magnetic field did not influence the colony growth of E.coli, but in Bacillus sp. was seen the increasing of colony area in magnetic field of 0.1 mT and 0.2 mT compared with control treatment. Antibiotic of trimethoprim, nalidixic acid, and ampicillin increase the growth inhibition of E. coli when the bacteria have been exposed to 0.1 mT; 0.2 mT; 0.3 mT magnetic field for 10 minutes. The inhibition by streptomycin and chloramphenicol antibiotic on E. coli did not affected by magnetic field exposure. The inhibition of Bacillus sp by trimethoprim and ampicillin increased when the bacteria have been exposed to 0.2 mT and 0.3 mT magnetic field for 10 minutes. The inhibition of nalidixic acid, streptomycin and chloramphenicol to Bacillus sp. did not affected by the magnetic field exposure
INFLUENCES OF INCUBATION TIME AND SUCROSE CONCENTRATION ON MICE (Mus musculus L.) OOCYTE VIABILITY FOR ENUCLEATING PROCEDURE
Get PDFThis study aimed to find out the optimum incubation time to complete mouse oocyte maturation at Metaphase II (MII) stage and determine the optimum sucrose concentration enabling to induce nuclear swelling for visualization that is important for enucleating process at the initial procedure of somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). In this current study, mice were used as animal model. Completely randomized design was arranged, consists of 2 trials with 4 treatments and 7 replications. In the first trial, the oocytes were cultured at 0-2, 4-6, 8-10, and 12-14 h in 5% CO2 incubator at 37 C. Second, the MII oocytes obtained from previous trial were cultured in M199 medium containing different concentrations of sucrose (0, 1.5, 3, and 6%). The parameters measured were the oocyte viability at various stages, i.e germinal vesicle (GV), metaphase I (MI), anaphase/telophase I (A/T I), and metaphase II (MII), and the viability of swollen nuclear oocytes using Hoechst/PI staining. The results showed that the optimum incubation time required by oocytes to reach MII stage was 12-14 h with a percentage of 57.1412.67%, while the optimum sucrose concentration for nuclear swelling was found at 3% with a percentage of 1000.00%. Our findings provided preliminary results related to the maturation process of the mouse oocyte nucleus, which is meaningful for the initial procedure of SCNT
FLEAS OF CTENOCEPHALIDES (SIPHONOPTERA: PULICIDAE) ON CAT AND DOG IN HOME ENVIRONMENT, PALEMBANG CITY
Get PDFDogs and cats are often kept as pets, thus they stay close to humans. Parasitic/zoonotic diseases in humans were often caused by ectoparasite in cats and dogs. This study aimed to determine the morphological differences between cat fleas and dog fleas and the prevalence of cats and dogs infested by fleas around the home environment in Ilir Barat 1 District, Palembang City. The method used was descriptive exploratory method with field observation techniques and specimen collection. The study was conducted in November - December 2018 in five Sub-districts, (Bukit Lama, Bukit Baru, Lorok Pakjo, Demang Lebar Daun, and 26 Ilir 1). The results showed that cat fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) and dog fleas (Ctenocephalides canis) had different color and some morphological differences, such as the shape of the head, the number of spines in the genal comb, the number of notches in the tibia, and the number of seta in the metapisternum. The highest prevalence of fleas infestation in cats was in Bukit Lama and 26 Ilir 1 (33.3%), while the highest prevalence of infestation in dogs was in Demang Lebar Daun Village (36.6%). Only in Lorok Pakjo Sub-district that no dog fleas infesting dogs are found. _________________________________________________________

Get PDFThis research aimed to study the effectiveness of ethanol extract of binahong leaves on blood glucose, insulin, blood chemical profiles (serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase=SGPT, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase=SGOT, ureum, and creatinine), and skin histopathology in diabetic rat. A total of 20 male Wistar rats aged 3 months ( 250 gram) were divided into five groups, with four rats in each group. Group I (non-diabetic control) was injected with 0.1 M sodium citrate buffer, while group II (diabetic control), III, IV, and V were injected with single dose of Streptozotocin (STZ) at dose 40 mg/kg intraperitoneally (IP). One week after the injection, the dorsal skin of the rats were excised. Group I and II were given cream topically and 1% NaCMC orally, group III was given 50% ethanol extract of binahong leaves (EEB) topically and 1% NaCMC orally, group IV was given cream topically and EEB 300 mg/kg orally, and group V was given 50% EEB topically and EEB 300 mg/kg orally. These treatments were continued for 14 days. Blood samples were obtained at the end of study to examine blood glucose, insulin, and blood chemical profiles (SGOT, SGPT, ureum, and creatinine). Examination of skin histopathology and leukocyte count were also done. The result showed that blood glucose, insulin, SGOT, SGPT, and ureum level of diabetic rats given topical or oral EEB did not significantly different from diabetic control group, even though blood glucose, insulin, SGOT, SGPT, and ureum level of diabetic rats given topical and oral EEB were found lower compared to diabetic control group. Administration of EEB 300 mg/kg orally in diabetic rats could lower creatinine level significantly (P0.05). Histopathological examination of dorsal skin of diabetic rats which were given EEB topically showed the decrease of fibroblast proliferation, leukocyte infiltration, and hemorrhage in dermis area. Leukocyte count on skin tissue was significantly lower (P0.05) in diabetic rats given EEB. In conclusion, topical or oral administration of EEB can help healing process in diabetic wound
