Judul: Study on Potential Helminthic Zoonosis in Urban Wild Rats in Peninsular Malaysia: An Article Review
Abstrak: Rodents are mammalians group found in worldwide, large population of commensal rodents live proximity with human in urban area may favor the transmission of zoonotic disease. Rodent-borne helminths related diseases are listed as neglected disease, commonly find within mid to low income country. This study aims to identify the potential helminthic zoonotic diseases that might be transmitted via rodents in Peninsular Malaysia. Literature review on studies of helminths in rodents in Peninsular Malaysia within these ten years had been carried out. Those helminths that potentially cause zoonotic diseases had been listed out to further investigate the helminths’ characteristic, lifecycle, transmission mode, and prevention methods. Five studies had been reviewed; four zoonotic diseases had been ruled out with five species of helminths had been identified which are H. nana, H. diminuta, A. malaysiensis, C. hepatica, and M. moniliformis. In which, H. nana and H. diminuta had a higher zoonotic risk than other zoonotic diseases. Most of the zoonotic diseases listed are transmit by accidental ingestion of contaminated foods or drinks. Prevention methods include good hygiene, sanitation and public health practices., Hewan pengerat adalah kelompok mamalia yang ditemukan di seluruh dunia, populasi besar hewan pengerat komensal yang hidup berdekatan dengan manusia di perkotaan dapat mendukung penularan penyakit zoonosis. Penyakit cacing yang ditularkan melalui hewan pengerat telah diklasifikasi sebagai penyakit terabai, umumnya ditemukan di negara pendapatan menengah dan bawah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi potensi penyakit zoonosis cacing yang kemungkinan ditular melalui hewan pengerat di Semenanjung Malaysia. Tinjauan literatur tentang studi cacing-cacing pada hewan pengerat di Semenanjung Malaysia dalam sepuluh tahun ini telah dilakukan. Cacing-cacing yang berpotensi menyebabkan penyakit zoonosis ditabel; karakteristik, daur hidup, cara penularan, dan cara pencegahannya telah diteliti. Lima studi telah ditinjau, dimana empat penyakit dengan lima spesies cacing telah diidentifikasi yaitu H. nana, H. diminuta, A. malaysiensis, C. hepatica, dan M. moniliformis. H. nana dan H. diminuta memiliki risiko zoonosis lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan lain. Sebagian besar penyakit zoonosis yang terdaftar ditular melalui konsumsi makanan atau minuman yang terkontaminasi secara tidak sengaja. Metode pencegahan termasuk kebersihan individu, sanitasi dan praktik kesehatan masyarakat yang lengkap.

Judul: Prevalence of Helminthiasis in Deer around IPB Dramaga
Abstrak: Penyakit kecacingan merupakan suatu masalah kesehatan bagi rusa. Infeksi cacing pada rusa dapat menimbulkan berbagai kerugian seperti pertumbuhan terhambat, gangguan reproduksi dan kematian. Data terkait prevalensi kejadian penyakit kecacingan menjadi penting untuk manajemen kesehatan dan pengendalian penyakit pada rusa sehingga dapat meningkatkan produktivitas rusa. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi jenis cacing, serta mengukur prevalensi kejadian kecacingan pada rusa di sekitar kampus IPB Dramaga. Penelitian ini menggunakan total 31 sampel feses rusa. Uji yang dilakukan pada penelitian ini antara lain uji flotasi, McMaster, filtrasi bertingkat dan identifikasi jenis cacing. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa prevalensi kejadian kecacingan pada rusa di sekitar kampus IPB Dramaga sebesar 32.26% dan jenis cacing yang menginfeksinya berasal dari kelas nematoda yakni Trichuris sp. dan Trichostrongylus sp. Sebanyak 6 sampel menunjukkan hasil positif uji McMaster dengan masing-masing jumlah telur yang ditemukan berada dalam rentang 1–499 telur tiap gram tinja (TTGT) sehingga derajat keparahan infeksi tergolong ringan. Program deworming dan manajemen pemeliharaan yang baik perlu diterapkan untuk menghindari peningkatan kejadian kecacingan pada rusa., Helminthiasis is a health concern for deer. Worm infections in deer can cause various losses such as stunted growth, reproductive disorders and death. Data related to the prevalence of helminthiasis is important for health management and disease control in deer so as to increase deer productivity. This study aimed to identify the types of worms, and measure the prevalence of helminthiasis in deer around IPB Dramaga. This study used a total of 31 deer feces samples. Tests conducted in this study include flotation test, McMaster test, multilevel filtration test and identification of worm species. The results of this study showed that the prevalence of helminthiasis in deer around IPB Dramaga was 32.26% and the types of worms that infected them came from the nematode class, namely Trichuris sp. and Trichostrongylus sp. A total of 6 samples showed positive results of the McMaster test with each number of eggs found in the range of 1–499 eggs per gram of feces (EPG) so that the severity of infection was classified as mild. Deworming programs and good husbandry management need to be implemented to avoid an increase in the incidence of helminthiasis in deer.

Judul: Struktur Kristal Film BaxSr1-xTiO3 dengan Variasi Fraksi Mol (x = 0,5 ; 0,6 ; 0,7 ; 0,8)
Abstrak: BaxSr1-xTiO (BST) film has been successfully made by growing BST on substrate surface Si (100) p-type with chemical solution deposition methode and spin coating technique at 3000 rpmrotational speed for 30 seconds. BST film made with mole fraction variation (x = 0,5 ; 0,6 ; 0,7 ; 0,8) and annealing process at a temperature of 850 °C for 22 hours. Characterization of BST samples obtained using X-ray diffractometer. The results of X-ray diffractometer characterization showed that the best crystal structure resulting in x = 0,5 mole fraction with the highest diffraction intensity and 25,55 nm crystal size, while the lowest diffraction intensity is owned by BST films with x = 0,8 mole fraction and the crystal size of 41,86 nm.
