DIFERENSIAL LEUKOSIT IKAN GURAMI (<em>Osphronemus gouramy</em> Lac.) DENGAN PERBEDAAN LEVEL SUPLEMENTASI Spirulina platensis DALAM PAKAN
The aim of this research was to know the effect of supplemented Spirulina platensis in diet on leukocytes differential of gourami (Osphronemous gouramy Lac.) and to obtain the best dose. This research was carried out experimentally using a completely randomized design (RAL), which consists of 4 treatments and 3 repetitions. The fish fed with diets which contain different levels of (0, 2.4, and 6g/kg) Spirulina platensis were investigated. Sampling was done 4 times at intervals of 2 weeks of the feeding experiment, leukocyte differential (monocyte, lymphocyte, neutrophil, eosinophyl) of blood taken from fish were determined. The results showed that the highest percentage of lymphocytes was found in level of supplementation of 4 g/kg of diets, whereas the highest percentage of monocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils were found at the level suplemetation 2 g/kg of diets. Level supplementation of S. platensis 4 g/kg of diets is an efficient and effective level in stimulating immune system cells of gourami, particularly lymphocytes cell.</jats:p
AKTIVITAS GLUTATION PEROKSIDASE DAN KADAR GULA DARAH TIKUS DIABETES YANG DIBERI EKSTRAK DAUN KAPULAGA (<em>Amomum cardamomum</em>)
Oxidative stress in a patient with diabetes known to decrease the activity of GSH-PX and increase the level of blood glucose. Glibenclamide is commonly used by patients with diabetes to lower the blood glucose. However, the long-term use of glibenclamide may induce the damage of pancreatic β-cells. The extract containing flavonoids and vitamin C of cardamoms leaf can reduce free radicals. The effect of cardamoms leaf extract on the enzymes activity and the level of blood glucose in diabetic rats is yet unknown. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of cardamoms leaf extract administration in the GSH-PX activities and the level of blood glucose of diabetic rats. The method used in this study was experimental with completely randomized design (CRD). There were three groups with five replicates for each. The first group, diabetic rats as control group were given no treatment; the second group, diabetic rats were given cardamoms leaf extract at the dose of 100 mg/kg of body weight; the third group, the diabetic rat were given glibenclamide at the dose of 2 mg/kg of body weight. Blood samples were taken three times at 0, 7, and 14 days after each treatment. Parameters measured were GSH-PX activity and the level of blood glucose. The data were analyzed using ANOVA F-test with a confidence level of 95%. The result of this study showed that the cardamoms leaf extract treatment decreased the activity of GSH-PX activity and decreased the level of blood glucose at a significant level (p < 0.05) from 278.8 to 101.4 mg/dl.</jats:p
