Infeksi Cacing Gastrointestinal pada Harimau Sumatera (Panthera tigris sumatrae) di Taman Margasatwa Ragunan
No full textThe aim of this research was conducted to investigate the prevalence values and the intensity of infection of gastrointestinal helminths from Sumatran Tigers (Panthera tigris sumatrae) in Ragunan Zoo. A total of 26 individual stool samples were collected from 26 tigers at 4 areas. These samples were examined using modified McMaster, simple floatation, and modified sedimentation techniques based on sex and age group. The result showed that the identified helminth eggs were Toxocara cati and Toxascaris leonina (Ascarid) and also Ancylostoma tubaeforme (Strongylid). There were 25 (96%) of the examined animals infected by Ascarid (96%) and Strongylid (68%). All male tigers (100%) were infected by Ascarid and 64% were infected by Strongylid. There were 83% female tigers infected by Ascarid and 67% infected by Strongylid. The prevalence of the age group of 10 years old, consecutively indicated that 100%, 91%, and 83% were infected by Ascarid and 67%, 64%, and 67% were infected by Strongylid. The highest intensity of Ascarid infection (10625 EPG) was found in females while the highest intensity of Strongylid infection (3650 EPG) was found in males. Those intensity of infection were found in the age group of <5 years old
Infeksi Cacing Saluran Pencernaan pada Macan Tutul Sri Lanka (Panthera pardus kotiya) di Taman Margasatwa Ragunan, Jakarta Selatan.
No full textInternational union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) telah menetapkan macan tutul sebagai hewan rentan punah pada tahun 2016. Upaya perlindungan macan adalah observasi hingga konservasi in-situ dan ex-situ seperti pada Taman Margasatwa Ragunan. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mempelajari persentase infeksi, dan intensitas kecacingan saluran pencernaan pada Macan Tutul Sri Lanka (Panthera pardus kotiya) di Taman Margasatwa Ragunan. Sampel feses dikumpulkan dari lima macan di area I dan tiga macan di area II. Pemeriksaan sampel feses menggunakan metode modifikasi teknik McMaster, teknik flotasi sederhana, dan teknik filtrasi-sedimentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persentase infeksi kecacingan pada delapan ekor macan tutul yaitu strongyle 75% dan Strongyloides sp. 37.5%. Macan tutul jantan persentase infeksi strongyle sebesar 75% dan Strongyloides sebesar 50%. Macan tutul betina persentase infeksi strongyle sebesar 75% dan Strongyloides sebesar 25%. Adapun persentase infeksi berdasarkan area kandang, infeksi strongyle dan Strongyloides berturut-turut sebesar 80% dan 60% di area I, dan sebesar 66.7% dan 0% di area II. Seluruh hewan menunjukan derajat infeksi termasuk dalam kategori relatif rendah (TTGT= 0-50
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
