Bacteria have several resistance mechanisms, one of which is biofilm production. The purpose of this study was to analyze the biofilm production of Klebsiella pneumoniae strains that are resistant to the antibiotic ciprofloxacin, as a form of defense mechanism. The in vitro research method was used to achieve the goal, carried out by testing clinical specimens of blood, sputum, pus, urine, feces, pleural fluid, with the process of isolation and identification, resistance testing and measuring biofilm production. The tested resistant K. pneumoniae isolates have a resistance mechanism by producing strong, medium and weak qualification biofilms, as well as low porin cell permeability. A strong significant correlation was formed in biofilm production with the amount of bacterial cell growth at the MIC value, which can increase cases of resistance prevalence.</em></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Indah Sulistiyawati Daniel Joko Wahyono Wahyu Siswandari Copyright (c) 2024 BioWallacea: Jurnal Penelitian Biologi (Journal of Biological Research) 2024-11-18 2024-11-18 11 2 154 166 Profil Senyawa Kimia dan Aktivitas Antibakteri Kombucha Daun Senggani (Melastoma candidum D.

However, forage is the most frequently used feed by farmers to meet the nutritional needs of their livestock. Abundance is the main reason why forage is the most favored by farmers. However, the deficiency of forage is the high fiber content, especially cellulose, which causes low digestibility. One way to reduce cellulose content is with the help of cellulolytic fungi. Cellulolytic fungi are known to have the ability to degrade cellulose. The purpose of this study was to isolate and identify cellulolytic fungi found in the decomposed plant matter of odot grass, which is usually used as feed for ruminant animals. Fungi that can degrade cellulose are characterized by their ability to clear CMC media that has been given Congo red. The identification of fungi carried out includes morphological and microscopic characterization. The results showed that three genera of fungi were able to degrade cellulose, namely Aspergillus (isolates P1 and P2), Rhizopus (isolates P5 and P9), and Mucor (isolate P7). The fungi of the genera Aspergillus, Rhizopus, and Mucor can degrade cellulose in odot grass (<em>Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott</em>).</p> <p> </p> <p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong>: Fungi, Cellulolytic, Animal Feed,</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Abstrak</strong></p> <p>Hijauan dan konsentrat merupakan pakan utama bagi ternak ruminansia, namun demikian pakan hijauan merupakan pakan yang sering digunakan oleh peternak untuk memenuhi kebutuhan nutrisi ternaknya. Kelimpahan menjadi alasan utama pakan hijauan paling diminati peternak, namun demikian kekurangan pakan hijauan adalah tingginya kadar seratnya khusus selulosanya yang menyebabkan rendahnya tingkat kecernaannya. Salah satu cara untuk menurunkan kadar seluosanya yaitu dengan bantuan jamur selulotik. Jamur selulotik diketahui mempunyai kemampuan mendegradasi selulosa. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu mengisolasi dan mengidentifikasi jamur selulotik yang terdapat di serasa rumput odot yang biasanya dijadikan pakan ternak ruminansia.Jamur yang mempunyai kemampuan mendegrdasi selulosa ditandai dengan kemampuannya untuk menzona beningkan media CMC yang telah diberikan kongo red. Identikasi jamur yang dilakukan meliputi karakterisasi morfologis dan mikroskopis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ada tiga genus jamur yang mampu mendegrasi selulosa yaitu Aspergillus (isolat P1 dan P2), Rhizopus ( isolat P5 dan P9) dan terakhir Mucor ( isolat P7). Jamur genus Aspergiilus, Rhzopus dan Mucor memiliki kemampuan mendegradasi selulosa pada tanaman rumput odot (<em>Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott</em>).</p> Asrul Asrul Devi Anthonia J.

Green Open Space (RTH) is an important element in supporting ecological balance and improving the quality of the urban environment. Although Law No. 26 of 2007 mandates the allocation of 30% of land for green spaces, in reality only about 10% is managed privately and 20% by the public sector. This study aims to evaluate the quality of the 113-hectare Kendari Botanical Garden, Southeast Sulawesi's first conservation space, which is experiencing accessibility and infrastructure challenges despite physical development. The methods used include interviews, observations, and literature studies, with descriptive analysis of accessibility, activities, and facilities aspects. The results showed that the accessibility aspect received a good rating, while the activity and facility aspects were in the fair to good category. This research emphasizes the need for improvement to meet the needs of sustainable urban planning and increase visitor comfort so that Kendari Botanical Garden can function optimally as an inclusive and user-friendly green space.</p> La Ode Midi Wa Ode Hasitiani Fahidu Herlan Hidayat Ema Hermawati Garusu La Gandri La Ode Muhammad Erif Copyright (c) 2024 BioWallacea: Jurnal Penelitian Biologi (Journal of Biological Research) 2024-11-27 2024-11-27 11 2 197 211 Efek Pemberian Monosodium Glutamat (MSG) Terhadap Morfologi Spermatozoa Epididymis Mencit (Mus musculus, L.) https://biowallacea.uho.ac.id/index.php/journal/article/view/36 <p>This study aims to determine the effect of giving monosodium glutamate (MSG) on the morphology of epididymal spermatozoa in mice (<em>Mus musculus</em>, L.).

There were two factors: watering interval (H1: every day, H2: 2 days and H3: 3 days) and paclobutrazol concentrations (P0: 0 ppm, P1:100 ppm, and P2: 200 ppm). The data analysed by two way Anova (Analysis of Variance) and continued with Tukey test. The result show that H1P1 has highest chlorophyll content (31.904 CCI) and lowest at H3P1 was 23.022 CCI. However, the combination of watering interval and paclobutrazol did not have a significant effect on chlorophyll content. Tukey test showed that treatment combination which gives the highest content of both alkaloid and anthocyanin is H3P2 with values ​​of 0.027 g and 0.400 % respectively. It can be concluded that the application of paclobutrazol can stimulate physiological responses in the form of increasing the content of chlorophyll, anthocyanins and alkaloids so that the survival capacity of soybeans increases under drought stress conditions in Bombana’s gold post mining soil.<strong> </strong></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>ABSTRAK </strong></p> <p>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh kombinasi interval penyiraman dan paklobutrazol terhadap kadar klorofil, alkaloid, dan antosianin daun kedelai yang tumbuh pada tanah pasca tambang emas Bombana Provinsi Sulawesi Tenggara.

Samples of ectoparasites that have been obtained are then taken to the laboratory to be observed using a microscope. After being observed, the results obtained were identified using a parasitology book as a reference. Data analysis in this study was carried out quantitatively and qualitatively. Quantitatively, the results obtained are calculated using the prevalence, intensity and distribution percentage formulas for ectoparasites, the results of which are presented table and qualitatively namely described. The results showed that of the 50 ducks examined, 25 were declared infected with ectoparasites. The ectoparasites found were lice and mites, lice ectoparasites consisted of 3 species namely Menopon gallinae, Goniocotes gallinae and Goniodes dissimilis and mites consisted of 1 species namely Dermacentor andersoni. The prevalence rate of ectoparasites that attack ducks is 50% and this is included in the very frequent infection category. The intensity level of ectoparasites infecting ducks was 4,56%. This shows that the number of ectoparasites that infect ducks is relatively small, so it can be said to be in the low category.</em></p> <p><strong>Keywords</strong>: <em>Inventory, Ectoparasites, Ducks, East Kolaka District.</em></p> <p><em>&nbsp;</em></p> <p><strong>Abstrak&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jenis-jenis ektoparasit, prevalensi dan intensitas ektoparasit yang menginfestasi itik (Anas plathyryncos) yang dipelihara di Kelurahan Ladongi, Kecamatan Ladongi, Kabupaten Kolaka Timur. Penelitian ini merupakan jenis penelitian eksploratif. Itik yang digunakan sebagai sampel sebanyak 50 ekor yang dipilih secara bebas atau dipilih tanpa berdasarkan jenis kelamin jantan dan betina. Sampel ektoparasit yang telah didapatkan, kemudian dibawa ke laboratorium untuk diamati dengan menggunakan mikroskop. Setelah diamati, hasil yang didapatkan diidentifikasi menggunakan buku panduan parasitologi sebagai acuan. Analisis data pada penelitian ini dilakukan secara kuantitatif dan kualitatif. Secara kuantitatif yaitu hasil yang telah diperoleh dihitung dengan menggunakan rumus prevalensi, intensitas dan persentase sebaran ektoparasit, yang hasilnya disajikan dalam bentuk tabel dan secara kualitatif (deskriptif). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dari 50 ekor itik yang diperiksa, 25 ekor dinyatakan terinfestasi ektoparasit. Ektoparasit yang ditemukan yaitu jenis kutu dan tungau, ektoparasit jenis kutu terdiri dari 3 spesies yaitu Menopon gallinae, Goniocotes gallinae dan Goniodes dissimilis dan tungau terdiri dari 1 spesies yaitu Dermacentor andersoni. Tingkat prevalensi ektoparasit yang menyerang itik yaitu 50% dan termasuk dalam kategori infeksi sangat sering. Tingkat intensitas ektoparasit yang menginfeksi itik adalah 4,56%. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa jumlah ektoparasit yang menginfestasi itik relatif sedikit, sehingga dapat dikatakan dalam kategori rendah.</p> <p><strong>Kata Kunci </strong>: Inventarisasi, Ektoparasit, Itik, Kolaka Timur</p> Ayu Widiastuti Suriana Suriana Nasaruddin Nasaruddin Amirullah Amirullah Copyright (c) 2024 BioWallacea: Jurnal Penelitian Biologi (Journal of Biological Research) 2024-11-30 2024-11-30 11 2 266 276
