Prevalence and Risk Factors of Lumpy Skin Disease in Pakem District, Yogyakarta
Get PDFLumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is an infectious dermatological condition affecting ruminant animals, particularly cattle, and is caused by the Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV). This virus possesses DNA genetic material derived from the Capripoxvirus genus within the Poxviridae family. The World Organization for Animal Health (WOAH) states that LSD has a mortality of 1-5% and a morbidity of 10-20% and can spread quickly if not handled properly. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of LSD and to identify associated risk factors in Pakem District, Yogyakarta. This research used a cross-sectional study. Samples were taken using a double-stage sampling technique with a total sample of 262 cattle. The study employed primary data collected through interviews with farmers. Data was analyzed descriptively and analytically. Data in the form of frequencies and percentages were analyzed using univariate methods. The relationship between risk factors and the incidence of LSD was analyzed using bivariate Chi-Square methods. The results showed that the prevalence of LSD in the Pakem District was 7.6%. The presence of ticks was identified as a risk factor for LSD disease, with a probability value of p<0.05. The association’s strength was indicated by an odds ratio (OR) of 2.64, suggesting that ticks may elevate the risk of contracting LSD by a factor of 2.64. The prevalence of LSD in Pakem District was 7.6%, and the presence of ticks 2.64 times increases the risk of LSD incidents. Control measures can be improved by carrying out livestock management in handling vectors.Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is an infectious dermatological condition affecting ruminant animals, particularly cattle, and is caused by the Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV).

Isolation and Molecular Identification of Nitrate-Reducing Bacteria from Swiftlet Houses in Sumedang, West Java
Get PDFEdible bird‘s nest is an important export commodity that is currently of concern to the Indonesian government. One of the requirements for exporting edible bird’s nest to the People\u27s Republic of China is that this product must meet the requirements for nitrite content in the product below 30 ppm. This nitrite contamination can be obtained from the results of nitrogen metabolism from nitrifying bacteria. However, information on nitrite-reducing bacteria in swiftlet houses has never been reported and is urgent in controlling nitrifying bacteria in swiftlet houses. The presence of nitrite-reducing bacteria needs to be identified to prove the presence of these bacteria in swiftlet houses that have the potential to contribute to nitrite contamination in edible bird’s nest. This study aims to isolate nitrate-reducing bacteria in an effort to control nitrite using bacteriophages in the future. This study targeted nitrate-reducing bacteria collected from environmental samples (waste, feces, pond water, artificial pond water, soil, swiftlet eggshells, white edible bird’s nest (Aerodramus fuciphagus), black bird’s nest (Aerodramus maximus)) (n=40) from two different swiftlet houses in Sumedang, West Java, Indonesia. All isolates collected were subjected to a series of microbiological tests, phenotypic characterization (Gram staining, morphology, sugar fermentation ability, enzymes, etc.) and genotyping by PCR amplification and 16S rDNA gene sequencing. Raw sequencing data were analyzed using DNASTAR® software for DNA sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree construction. In the present work, four bacteria species were identified, including Priestia megaterium, Pseudomonas putida, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, and Proteus terrae. To our knowledge, this study is the first report of nitrate-reducing bacteria isolated from birdhouses.Edible bird‘s nest is an important export commodity that is currently of concern to the Indonesian government.

Aktivitas Gastroprotektif Infusa Serai Wangi terhadap Gastritis Akut pada Tikus Sprague dawley
Get PDFGastritis is an inflammation of the stomach mucosal lining. Citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus) is a plant that has been used in traditional medicine to treat diseases, including digestive problems. This study aimed to analyze the gastroprotective activity of citronella grass infusion on acidified ethanol-induced gastritis in Sprague Dawley rats. The study was conducted on four groups of rats that were previously fasted for 18 hours. All rats were given treatments: water (HCl/ethanol group), omeprazole (omeprazole group), 20% citronella grass infusion (P1), and 40% citronella grass infusion (P2). After 90 minutes, all groups were administered HCl and ethanol mixture orally and then sacrificed 90 minutes later. The stomachs were collected for gastric fluid pH measurement and macroscopic and microscopic analysis. The results of phytochemical screenings showed that the citronella grass infusion contains alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. The pH values and the gastric lesion scores of P1 and P2 were significantly different (P<0.05) with higher and lower values respectively than the HCl/ethanol group. Macroscopic and microscopic examinations also showed a decrease in gastric lesions in the P1 and P2 groups. These findings confirm the gastroprotective activity of citronella plant infusion. There was no significant difference (P>0.05) between the P1 and P2.Gastritis merupakan suatu kondisi peradangan pada lapisan mukosa. Serai wangi (Cymbopogon nardus) merupakan suatu tanaman yang umum digunakan untuk mengobati banyak penyakit, salah satunya gangguan digesti. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis aktivitas gastroprotektif dari infusa serai wangi pada tikus Sprague Dawley yang diinduksi gastritis dengan campuran etanol dan HCl.

Evaluation of Cassava Leaf Paste on Egg Performance and Egg Quality of Quail Egg Laying Period
Get PDFQuail has a high egg production. On the other hand, quail has a weakness, which is prone to stress. This stress is caused by erratic weather conditions. This study examines and evaluates the role and function of cassava leaf paste on aspects of egg performance and egg quality of quail eggs in the laying period that are reared under natural conditions or normal conditions in tropical areas, such as in Indonesia. Observation of egg performance was detected by calculating egg length, egg width, and egg shape index. Observation of egg quality aspects was detected by calculating the quality of the shell, egg white, and egg yolk. The results showed that the shape index of quail eggs at various levels of cassava leaf paste administration showed results that were not significantly different. The egg shape index obtained at P2 and P3 tends to be more oval/semi-tapered, while at P0 and P1 it tends to be round. The value of the eggshell weight, egg white weight, and egg yolk weight that received cassava leaf paste were higher than the control treatment. The high eggshell weight, egg white weight, and egg yolk weight were suspected to be differences in nutritional content, mineral elements, and flavonoids between treatments. Giving cassava leaf paste can increase the index of egg shape in the quail laying period. The application of cassava leaf paste can also increase the weight of the shell, the weight of the egg white, and the weight of the yolk in the egg-laying period of quail.Quail has a high egg production.
