The Effect of Pattern and Infill Percentage in 3D Printer for Phantom Radiation Applications
Full text link3D printing technology was capable of fabricating phantoms to enhance quality assurance in radiation therapy. The ideal phantom has properties equivalent to the real tissue. However, 3D Printing has the limits to mimicking the attenuation properties of various tissues because during 3D printing there can be only one type of material. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of infill percentage and infill patterns of 3D printing technology to simulate various types of tissue. This study used 25 samples measuring 5 × 5 × 1 cm3 from PETG material. The 20 samples were printed using variations infill percentages from 5 - 100% and the infill pattern in lines. The five samples were then printed with the infill percentage constant at 50% and used the infill pattern triangles, grid, gyroid, octet, and concentric. We used Computed Tomography (CT) to determine the Hounsfield Unit (HU) value for each sample and evaluated the suitability of each sample for phantom applications in radiation therapy and radiology. However, none of the samples was able to simulate compact bone. As a result, we found that PETG material could simulate the properties of soft tissue, fat, lung, kidney, liver, pancreas, and spongy bone. Thus, the study had shown promising potential for the fabrication of the anthropomorphic phantom of radiation therapy
A C3 Magic Decomposition on Friendship Graph with Odd Order
No full textLet G = (V,E) is graph with a non-empty set V containing vertices and a set of edges E. Also note that if H = {H_i⊆G_i = 1,2,3,...,n} is a collection of subgraphs from G with H_i≅Hj,i ≠j. If Hi ∩ Hj = ∅ and ⋃n(i-1)Hi = G, then graph G admits a decomposition H. Furthermore, if there are f(v) and g(e) which are vertices and edges labeling at G, the total weight of each subgraph H_i,i = 1,2,3,…,n has the same value, namely ∑_(v∈V(H_i))▒〖f(v)〗+∑_(e∈E(H_i))▒〖g(e)〗= w, then the graph G contains the magic H_i decomposition with w as the magic constant. This research shows that the friendship graph F_n with n = 2k + 1 for k∈N admits a magic -(a,d)-C_3 decomposition with a magic constant w of 29dk + 6a + 15d
Artificial Neural Network Performance on Pakcoy Leaf Fresh Weight Model
Full text linkThe growth of leaf biomass can be predicted from an increase in the surface area and thickness of the leaves. Measurements of leaf biomass are approached with the fresh weight of the leaves. The relationship between biomass and leaf surface area commonly performed by regression analysis. The analysis requires assuming linear relationship between dependent variables and independent variables. Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is alternative that can be used to analyze the relationship of leaves and leaf biomass without requiring linear relationships. The research aimed to evaluate ANN performance in determining the fresh weight of pakcoy leaves based on leaf area parameters. Datasets in the study included leaf area datasets and length-width datasets. ANN architecture used Multi Layer Perceptron (MLP) with backpropagation. Ramsey’s test results showed that leaf area datasets is linier model and length-width datasets is nonlinier model. ANN performs well in predicting leaf fresh weight data on both nonlinear and linear models. The best ANN architecture for modeling the leaf fresh weight with leaf area is MLP (1-3-1) while the leaf fresh weight model with length and width is MLP (2-3-1)
Antagonism Potentials of Endophytic Fungi from Lemongrass (Cymbopogon nardus (L.) Rendle) on Escherichia coli
Full text linkThis study aimed to determine the potential antagonism performed by the endophytic fungi of lemongrass against Escherichia coli. Five species of endophytic fungi were tested using agar well method. These fungi consist of Paecilomyces lilacinus, Penicillium sp., Trichoderma viride, Fusarium oxysporum, and Fusarium sp., each was taken from roots, stem, and leaves, respectively. Chloramphenicol and aquadest were used as control. The results showed that there is significant inhibition of E. coli compared to the negative control. Paecilomyces lilacinus showing the most prominent inhibition with 74.67%, followed by unknown species of Fusarium 47.33%, Penicillium sp 42.67%, Fusarium oxysporum 21.67%, and Trichoderma viride 17.43%. It can be concluded that all five isolates of endophytic fungi from lemongrass (Cymbophogon nardus (L.) Rendle) have the ability to inhibit the growth of E. coli, and thus have antagonism potential against E. coli
The Profile of Reproductive Hormones of Nypa Palm Worm Namalycastis rhodochorde (Polychaeta: Neriedidae)
Full text linkThe Nypa palm worm Namalycastis rhodochorde can be cultivated because it has high economic value; however, knowledge of its reproductive biology is still poorly understood, especially regarding reproductive hormones for engineering and accelerated maturation. This research aimed to obtain profile data of the three reproductive hormones i.e: estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone of Nypa palm worms. Samples were taken from body coelom fluid containing gametes from three stages of development; immature, submature, and mature. Analysis of progesterone and testosterone used the Radio Immunoassay method while estradiol used the Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay method. Analysis of variance was used to determine differences in hormone concentrations based on developmental stages. The concentration of the Estradiol hormone increases with maturation, while the concentrations of progesterone and testosterone do not differ at all stages of development
Optimization of qRT-PCR Annealing Temperature of WRKY45 Gene for Detection of Resistance Genes Against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae on Black Rice Cempo Ireng
Full text linkPlant pathogens constrain the development of black rice farming. One of these pathogens is Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), causing a bacterial leaf blight disease. The disease disrupts crop growth and reducing yields. Cempo ireng is a local pigmented rice cultivar from Yogyakarta, Indonesia, which is reported for its high resistance to Xoo. One of the rice resistance mechanisms to Xoo infection is a molecular defense employing plant resistance genes such as WRKY45. Comparing the expression of resistance-related genes of the resistant cultivar to the susceptible ones is needed to elucidate the resistance mechanism of the black rice to Xoo. For this purpose, the expression of WRKY45 gene at the level of mRNA can be performed using qRT-PCR. The success of qPCR analysis is greatly influenced by the accuracy of the annealing primer temperature of the corresponding gene. This study aimed to optimize the primer's annealing temperature for WRKY45 gene. The optimization was done by a temperature gradient PCR. Determination of the optimal annealing temperature was selected based on the profile of the amplification curve, melt curve, melt temperature and the Ct value obtained. The annealing temperature gradient used in this study was ranging from 52°C to 60°C. The results showed that the best annealing temperature for WRKY45 gene primers is 58.3°C based on the amplification curve, melt curve, melt peak and Ct value of 29.21
Vibration Test Fixtures Design for Payload of Tubular Telemetry System
Full text linkVibration testing on telemetry system payload is needed to determine its resistance to vibration during operation. Vibration testing of telemetry system payloads requires a test fixture. Test fixture is used to transmit vibration from shaker to telemetry system payload. The payload of telemetry system to be tested is a tubular. The test fixture in this study was designed using SolidWorks software. The material used for manufacture of test fixture is aluminum. Aluminum material was chosen because it has good rigidity with a relatively light mass. Stiffness and mass properties affect to natural frequency value of test fixture, which must be greater than the frequency range of operating telemetry system. Data collection uses two accelerometers placed on test fixture. Sine sweep vibrations are given from 5 Hz to 2000 Hz with a constant amplitude of 1 g and a sweep rate of 1 octave/minute. The test produces three peaks that they are candidates as natural frequencies, i.e at a frequency of 1532 Hz with an amplitude of 2.898 g, a frequency of 1706 Hz with an amplitude of 6.582 g, and at a frequency of 1806 Hz with an amplitude of 6.472 g. From those three natural frequencies, the second natural frequency at 1706 Hz is the most critically because it has the largest response value
Agronomic Performance of F3 Populations of Tomato for Hydroponic Cultivation at Lowland Greenhouse
Full text linkTomatoes consumption continues to increase, but it’s constrained by low productivity in central production, so a plant breeding program is needed to improve the yield and adaptability of tomatoes in urban areas. This study aimed to analyze the agronomic performance of F3 tomato populations for hydroponic cultivation in a lowland greenhouse. The F3 populations derived from crosses of commercial variety Rewako x Tantyna (Rw.Ta-4-7U, w.Ta-4-10U, and Rw.Ta-1-14U) and Agatha x Ultima (Ag.Ul-5-7U & Ag.Ul-5-14U). The research was conducted at the Gunadarma University’s experimental greenhouse in Depok City, West Java, from March to August 2020. Twenty-fifth-day-old seedlings from each population were planted in a planter bag. The experiment was carried out using a single plant design for F3 generation and a randomized complete block design (RCBD) for the commercial varieties. The result showed that a number of fruit per plant, and fruit weight per plant had wide genetic variabilities among F3 populations. All characters had a high broad-sense heritability except for flowering days and harvesting days. The high advance genetic, along with high mean values, was shown by the F3 populations of Rw.Ta-4-10U, Rw.Ta-4-7U and Ag.Ul-5-14U. The high value of genetic variability, heritability, and genetic advance will help to select the program for the next generation
Preliminary Assessment of The Population Structure and Habitat Characteristics of Javan Langur (Trachyphitecus auratus É. Geoffroy, 1812) in Natural Reserve Watangan Puger
Full text linkJavan langur (Trachypithecus auratus É. Geoffroy, 1812) is categorized by IUCN as a vulnerable primate species since 2008 and protected under 2018 LHK regulation. They can be found across Java Island, also in the Watangan Puger Nature Reserve (WPNR), East Java. There is no information about the population and habitat characteristics of Javan langur in WPNR except their existence. This research study aims to estimate the population structure, population density, and habitat characteristics of the Javan Langur in the WPNR, within the area of 2.6 ha. Three concentration points for daily observations were determined for 3 days. A combination of concentration count with scan sampling observation method at intervals of 30 minutes every hour of observation was done to get the data of density, position, population structure, and plant species preferred by Javan langurs. The important value, diversity Shannon-Wiener index, and plant species preferred were also analyzed. There are 26 population composed of two groups of the Javan langur occupying an area of 1,118 ha (43%). The population size estimatation for the first group was 17 individuals with a population density of 15.17 individu/ha, while that for the second group was 9 individuals with a population density of 8.02 individu/ha. The twenty-six Javan langurs are composed of complete age structure such as adult 69%, sub-adult 15%, and infant 16%. The Javan langur population was mostly found in the vegetation structure of Syzygium jambos (jambu hutan) to Pithecellobium dulce (asam manila) (IV = 45.47 to 3.88). Total 24 tree species are found in WNPR, most of the trees are used by the Javan langur as food and cover. The tree community in WPNR has medium diversity with value of 2.28. Furthermore, the Javan langur prefer Artocarpus elasticus (bendo) and Syzygium jambos (jambu hutan) at the upper strata (> 15 meters) than other trees and strata. Most of them are actively walking or jumping (locomotion) during the activity observed at the tree community
