Abstrak: The aim of this research was to investigate the influence of Haemonchus contortus infection on the weight gain of thin tail sheep. Twenty thin tail sheep, which have previously been freed from helminth infection were devided into five groups. One group served as uninfected controls, whereas the other four groups were infected experimentaly with 500, 1000, 2000, and 4000 H. contortus. The animal were weighed weekly for eigth weeks. At the end of the study all sheep were slaugtered for worm counting of H. contortus in abomasum. Degrees of infection were catagorized based on the number of worm into three groups namely mild (1-250), moderate (251-500), and heavy infection (>500). Results of this study showed there were decreased weight gain of 1170 g, 1703 g, 1633 g, 2680 g for control, mild, moderat and heavy infection. The percentage decline of weight gain on mild group was 10 %, moderat group was 11 % and 16 % heavy infection group was compared with at begining of experiment

Abstrak: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Haemonchus contortus infection to white blood cell profile of Javanese thin tail sheep. Twenty males Javanese thin tailed sheep were divided into five groups, namely infected group of 500 L3, 1000 L3, 2000 L3, 4000 L3 and uninfective group as control. The blood and fecal samples were collected from rectum before and three weeks after infection. The blood samples were collected using venoject® from Jugular vein. The fecal samples were collected directly from rectum. The blood samples were examined to determine total of white blood cell (leukocytes) and white blood cell differential, whereas fecal samples to determine egg per gram. The result showed that Haemonchus contortus infections cause an increased total of leukocyte but were not significantly different among of level infection doses (P>0.05). Number of eosinophils were significantly different among uninfected group (P<0.05), but were not significantly different in number of lymphocyte, monocyte, and neutrophil (P>0.05). There where positively correlated significantly between the amount of egg per gram (EPG) and profile of eosinophil (P<0.05), however were negatively correlated significantly between the amount of egg per gram (EPG) and neutrophil’s profile (P<0.05). There where no correlation significantly between the amount of egg per gram (EPG) and profile of white blood cell, lymphocyte, and monocyte (P>0.05).

Judul: Sintesis 1-Kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai Prekursor Asam (S)-(+)-(6-Metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat
Abstrak: Senyawa 1-kloro-2-metoksi-6-propilnaftalena-1,3-dioksolana (1:1) sebagai prekursor asam (S)-(+)-(6-metoksi-2-naftil)propanoat disintesis dari bahan awal 2-metoksinaftalena. Tahapan sintesis diawali dengan klorinasi menggunakan 2 jenis pereaksi klorinasi, yakni isosianurat terklorinasi dan NaOCl. Klorinasi dengan isosianurat terklorinasi berhasil menyintesis 1-kloro-2-metoksinaftalena sebagai produk monoklorinasi melalui pencirian dengan kromatograf gas-spektrometer massa (GC-MS). Nisbah konversi produk paling efisien diperoleh pada laju penambahan 2.5 mmol/jam. Sebaliknya, klorinasi dengan NaOCl menghasilkan produk triklorinasi. 1-Kloro-2-metoksinaftalena selanjutnya diasilasi dengan propanoil klorida, tetapi analisis dengan GC menunjukkan bahwa produk asilasi tidak terbentuk. Sistem bebas-air diperlukan untuk keberhasilan proses asilasi tersebut.
