Morphological Characteristic of Adult Armigeres subalbatus from Sumbersari Jember
Armigeres subalbatus is a type of mosquito that is widely distributed in the world, including Jember Regency, Indonesia. The larval natural habitat is mainly found in trees that can hold water, adult mosquitoes can be found indoors or outdoors. In the field of health, Ar. subalbatus acts as a vector for filariasis, Japanese Encephalitis (JE) and zika. This study aims to identify the morphological characteristics of the Ar. subalbatus from Sumbersari Village, Jember Regency. Although in Indonesia there is no significant evidence of the role of Ar. subalbatus in the health sector, it is important to detect the morphological features of Ar. subalbatus to be able to detect mosquitoes properly. Knowing the exact type of mosquito can provide consideration for appropriate mosquito control methods. The method used is through the installation of ovitrap in November 2022. The ovitrap media is in the form of tap water, the ovitrap is left for 8 days. Ar. mosquitoes were found in the larval stage of the ovitrap. The larvae were brought to the Jember University Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences Zoology Laboratory for hatching and data collection on the morphological characteristics of mosquitoes. The results of this study include the morphological characteristics used for the identification of Ar. subalbatus which includes the shape of the proboscis, flagelomeres on the palps, color of the scutum, border of the scutum, size of the antepronotum, bands on the pleura, prespiracular and postspiracular areas, edges of the mesepimeron, abdomen (tergum, sterna), apex of the femur, venation of the wings, alula and upper calypter of the wings
Performance Assessment of Agrotourism Oriented Irrigation Systems in Subak Sembung, Denpasar City
Subak Sembung has a wide coverage area of 103 ha of rice fields with a total length of 5.1 km of tertiary irrigation canals. The Subak Sembung area has experienced land conversion of 14 ha which has had an impact on the performance of the subak system. The strategy that can be implemented to maintain the sustainability of the subak system is to develop agrotourism. Based on the survey results at the study area, there are several problems that have the potential to disrupt the performance of the irrigation system, including damage to irrigation structures and leakage of irrigation canals, and a lack of support for subak development towards agrotourism. The aim of this study was to assess the condition and performance of an agrotourism-oriented irrigation system in Subak Sembung. This research was conducted using field survey and interview methods. Field surveys were carried out with the aim of determining the conditions of agrotourism-oriented irrigation systems. Interviews were conducted to assess the performance of an agrotourism oriented irrigation system using the subak assessment form based on the Tri Hita Karana developed by the Udayana University Subak Unit and the agro-tourism form. Based on the research that has been done, it can be stated that the condition of the agrotourism oriented irrigation system in Subak Sembung is good. This is shown based on the functioning of irrigation network assets and non-irrigation networks. The performance of agrotourism oriented irrigation systems in Subak Sembung is in the range of 3.66 - 5.00 in the good category
Utilization of Bendrat Wire fiber on the Mechanical Properties of Geopolymer Concrete
One of the problems in the construction field, especially concrete, is to reduce cracking due to the brittle nature of the concrete itself and increase the strength of the concrete. One of the ingredients to minimize cracks in concrete is the addition of fiber in the concrete mixture. Therefore, additional innovation is needed in the manufacture of concrete. So, this research was carried out by discussing the use of bendrat wire on the mechanical properties of geopolymer concrete. This study aims to determine the results of compressive strength, split tensile strength, and flexural strength with variations in the addition of 0%, 6%, 12%, and 18% were using a 2% superplasticizer with a concrete age of 28 days. The addition of bendrat wire from 0%, 6%, 12%, and 18% of the test results has increased. For compressive strength, respectively, 40.34 MP, 40.552 Mpa, 40.977 Mpa, and 41.189 MPa. For the splitting tensile strength result, which is 2.07 MPa;, 2.123 MPa, 2.176 MPa, and 2.229 MPa. For flexural strength, 4.05 Mpa, 4.09 Mpa, 4.16 Mpa, and 4.25 MPa
Acute Toxicity Test of Jalembi Probiotic Beverages on Mice ddY
An acute toxicity test is one of the pre-clinical tests needed to determine the safety of the consumption of a product before clinical trials are carried out on humans. The purpose of this study was to confirm whether or not there was a toxic effect of jalembi juice probiotic drink (red guava, lemon, melon, beetroot) on male and female mice observed for 14 days. This research design is experimental. The samples in this study were jalembi probiotic juice drinks with Lactobacillus plantarum starter and 40 male and female ddY mice. This research procedure was carried out by giving jalembi juice as a test preparation with doses of 124, 640, 3200, and 16000 mg/kg BW as much as 0.59 ml in males and females mice.
