Judul: Studi Kasus: Leiomioma pada Seekor Singa (Panthera leo)
Abstrak: This report described an abdominal leiomyoma in a female old lion (Panthera leo) from the Ragunan Zoo, Jakarta. The aim of this study was to identify the type of tumor from an old aged female lion with anamnese suffered from chronic gangrene on the right-rear leg. The lion was euthanized and then accompanied with necropsy. Gross findings were recorded and then histopathological examination of some organ samples done. Macroscopic observations showed several lesions. A tumor was found in abdominal cavity, has 14.5 x 9.8 x 6.5 cm in sized. The tissue sample from the tumor mass was further examined using histopathological examination. Based on the morphology, the tumor consisted of spindle-shaped cells with a cigar-shaped nuclei with blunt ends. Mitotic figure was <3, indicated that the tumor was benign. Masson's Trichrome staining showed that among the tumor cells are found collagen bundles (blue). Desmin immunohistochemical staining showed a positive result, that mean the tumor cells derived from smooth muscle cells. Other immunohistochemical stainings e.g. Vimentin, Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP), and Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) were negative. According to morphological and immunohistochemical characters, the tumor was diagnosed as leiomyoma.

Judul: Studi Kasus: Kajian Histopatologi pada Seekor Singa Afrika (Panthera leo) yang Menderita Pyometra
Abstrak: An African lioness (Panthera leo) was diagnosed with pyometra after it was found dead with purulent discharge from the vulva. The purpose of this study is to examine gross and histopathological changes of various organs of the lion to know the causes of the death. The organ sample of heart, lungs, liver, intestine, kidney, and uterus were made into histopathology slide with Haematoxilin-Eosin staining. Histopathological examination showed cardiomyopathy, emphysema and edema pulmonum, purulent enteritis, hepatopathy and passive liver congestion, and also chronic active nephritis. Uterus inflammation with purulent exudation indicated pyometra with cystic endometrial hyperplasia. Pyometra in the lion leads to sepsis that is characterized by hemorrhage and degeneration of parenchymal organs. Cardiomyopathy causes heart failure which leads to congestion of the entire organ. Lion’s death was caused by sepsis and heart failure.

Judul: Alat Perekam Data Hujan dengan Mode Hemat Daya
Abstrak: Pengukuran intensitas hujan dapat dilakukan dengan beberapa pendekatan, seperti menggunakan perekam data hujan otomatis (automatic rain recorder). Data curah hujan yang terukur oleh tipping bucket akan tersimpan dalam SDcard setiap kejadian hujan terjadi. Penggunaan arduino sebagai komponen utama dipilih karena perangkat open source yang mudah dimodifikasi. Beberapa komponen arduino yang dapat dimodifikasi adalah ATmega dengan konsumsi daya sebesar 12 mA pada 3 volt serta 17 mA pada 5 volt. Adapun FTDI mengkonsumsi daya sebesar 20 mA pada 5 volt. Voltage regulator mengkonsumsi daya sebesar 38 mA pada 5 volt, 64 mA pada 9 volt, 103 mA pada 12 volt, selain itu led mengkonsumsi 1 mA pada 5 volt. Komponen yang dapat dihilangkan pada arduino antara lain FTDI, voltage regulator, serta led. Pengurangan komponen ini bertujuan agar daya tahan baterai menjadi 6.5 kali lebih hemat dibandingkan arduino standar. Setelah bagian bagian tersebut dihilangkan maka total konsumsi daya yang diperlukan oleh mikrokontroler on board arduino adalah 12 mA saat 3 volt dan 17 mA saat 5 volt saat mode kerjanya. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa pada penggunaan mode sleep lebih efisien daya dibandingkan mode power save. Mode sleep membantu cara penghematan daya pada pembuatan alat perekam data hujan Penggunaan metode ini jika diasumsikan kejadian hujan hanya terjadi selama tiga jam dalam sehari maka dengan menggunakan baterai sebesar 400 mAh dengan tegangan 3 volt maka alat perekam data hujan ini dapat hidup selama 15 Hari….
