Judul: Hubungan antara dosis infeksi biologi Ascaridia galli dan produktivitas ayam petelur
Abstrak: Untuk mengetahui hubungan antara dosis infeksi, biologi Ascaridia galli dan produktifitas ayam petelur, telah dilakukan penelitian dengan menggunakan 52 ekor ayam Hy sex brown betina umur 18 minggu. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancanganacak lengkap dengan 10 perlakuan yang masing-masing 5 ulangan (5 ekor ayam). Sembilan perlakuan terdiri dari Sembilan dosis yang berbeda-beda, sedangkan satu perlakuan lain merupakan control tanpa infeksi. Dosis telur infektif Ascaridia galli berupa deret ukur dengan bilangan dasar4. …dst

Judul: lnfektivitas Ascaridia galli Pada Ayam Petelur Dengan Dosis Tunggal 4000 Telur Infektif
Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui tingkat keberhasilan infeksi dosis tunggal 4000 telur infektif Ascaridia galli pada ayam petelur dengan mengamati perkembangan dan distribusi larva dan/atau cacing muda pada mukosa dan lumen usus ayam. Sehingga berdasarkan hasil pengamatan tersebut dapat diperoleh gambaran bahwa infeksi dengan dosisi tunggal 4000 telur infektif Ascaridia galli menghasilan infekstifitas yang relatif tinggi atau justru tertekan. Pengetahuan ini dapat memberi petunjuk tentang titik rawan dalam perjalanan infeksi yang merupakan satu landasan pemikiran untuk mencegah atau menekan infeksi. Penelitian ini menggunakan hewan percobaan berupa ayam petelur ras ISA brown yang dipelihara dalam kandang baterai. Ayam dibebas cacingkan dengan menggunakan albendazole setelah itu divaksinasi dengan vaksin ND. Setelah diketahui jumlah telur tiap gram tinjanya adalah 0, kemudian ayam dikelompokkan menjadi sebelas kelompok dan terdiri dari 3 ekor ayam tiap kelompoknya lalu diinfeksi dengan telur infektif Ascaridia galli. Setiap minggu dinekropsi 3 ekor ayam dan dikeluarkan saluran pencernaannya. Saluran pencemaan dibagi menjadi 5 bagian yang sama mulai dari duodenum hingga ileum ( Ul - US). Dikoleksi larva dan/atau cacing muda dari mukosa dan lumen saluran pencernaan kemudian dihitung dan diamati perkembangannya. Dari pengamatan dapat diketahui bahwa distribusi larva/cacing paling banyak pada 2/5 bagian posterior usus halus ayam. Sehingga dari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa dosis tunggal 4000 telur infektif Ascaridia galli menghasilkan tingkat infektifitas yang rendah dan dosis tunggal tersebut mampu menggertak sistem kekebalan tubuh inang dengan manifestasi terhambatnya proses pendewasaan cacing Ascaridia galli.

Judul: Characteristic of Overshooting Top (OT) Based on  Himawari  8  Satellite  as  a  Convective  Cloud  Feature  that  Generates  Extreme Weather in the Java Island Region
Abstrak: Overshooting Top (OT) is a feature at the top of a convective cloud that is associated with extreme weather. Research on OT in tropical Indonesia is still very limited. The existence of geostationary satellites with wide area coverage and fast frequency observations is useful for observing the fast dynamics of the OT life cycle. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the relationship between OT and extreme weather, updraft and thermodynamic conditions of OT when extreme weather occurs, the best objective method for detecting OT in the day time and night time, and the spatiotemporal distribution of OT in the tropical region of Java Island during the 2018-2021 period. Based on visual analysis using visible channel and Himawari 8 sandwich products, 87% of extreme weather events in Java were accompanied by the appearance of OT. It indicates that the presence of the OT pattern is a convection cloud pattern or feature that is closely related to extreme weather events for the Java Island region. The existence of a time lag between the appearance of OT and extreme weather events on Java Island indicates that the OT of convection cloud can be used as a precursor or nowcasting for the appearance of extreme weather. Most of the convective cloud OT features during extreme weather events on Java Island have altitude that were only able to exceed the altitude of the equilibrium level and few were able to exceed the tropopause level of 9 km – 16 km. The difference in atmospheric conditions during extreme weather events on Java Island, which is in the tropics and subtropics, is a strong and unstable convective energy condition characterized by a larger CAPE, as well as unstable KI, LI, SI and TTI values. It is offset by kinematic factors in the form of a weak vertical wind shear (bulk wind shear 0-6 km) and a higher freezing point height. The difference between extreme weather events in the Java Island region and other tropical regions compared to subtropical regions is the strong updraft speed of convection clouds. The IRW Texture COMB algorithm based on the IRW-Texture Gradient modification and the COMB algorithm shows a significant increase in quality for detecting OT and non-OT pixels in Java. Rainy days with rainfall > 50 mm/day are very common in areas with an altitude of > 500 m. On the other hand, the level of convection activity which is indicated by the presence of OT and lightning is significantly reduced in this area. OT of convective clouds appear more frequently during the DJF season and less frequently during the JJA season. OT often appears during the day time and rarely at night time. Most OTs appear in the central part, away from the south and north coasts of Java Island during the day, while OTs that appear near the south and north coasts of Java Island can appear in the morning or afternoon.
