The purpose of this study is to describe and calculate the unit cost in developing the information system for Islamic boarding schools. This research uses a descriptive-quantitative approach. Data collection methods are observation and documentation. The descriptive approach in this study is used to analyze and interpret the data from observations and documentation that have been collected, while the quantitative approach in this study is used to explain the nominal unit cost calculation using the ABC (Activity Based Costing) method. In every development of an information system, the costs required are quite a lot and have several complex parameters, so that one of the management concepts is needed, namely cost accuracy. This becomes important for users of cost information to determine the cost effectiveness used by each unit as well as a reference price in further information system development, in this case the cost of developing an information system for Islamic boarding schools. The method we use in calculating unit costs is ABC (Activity Based Costing), where the calculation system charges costs for each activity involved before calculating product costs. The number of activities in developing a software or information system makes this method suitable to be applied in cost accuracy. The standard benchmark for the cost of procuring goods and services in this study is in accordance with government regulations and several observations, while the amount of salary costs follows the 2019 Minimum Standard Guidelines issued by INKINDO (National Association of Indonesian Consultants). The results of this study show that in developing the information system for Islamic boarding schools, the total cost required is Rp. 79,100,000.00 with a unit cost of Rp. 17,673,607.35.

The best combination of cutting parameters which enhances the compromise between tool life, productivity and machined surface quality contribute to benefice on production cost, which makes manufacturing industry interested in it. The aim of this research is to investigate the life of ceramic cutting tool and machining productivity together with surface roughness during turning of hardened steel C45, with focus on the selection of the optimal cutting parameter combination. The experiments are carried out based on uni-factorial planning methodology of cutting speeds and feed rates. The results show that the mixed ceramic tool is suitable for turning hardened steel C45 (40 HRC) and the conclusion is that it performed well in terms of tool life, productivity and surface quality at a combination of cutting speed (200 m/min), feed (0.08 mm/rev) and depth of cut (0.3 mm). Additionally, a tool life model has been proposed which is presented very high coefficient of determination.

Published: April 2021

In recent decades, decision support system has been constantly growing in the field of transportation planning. PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization METHod for Enrichment Evaluation) method is an efficient decision-making support deployed in case of a finite number of criteria. It provides a partial ranking through PROMETHEE I and a complete ranking with PROMETHEE II. This outranking methodology is characterized by the elimination of scale effects between criteria and managing incomparability with the comprehensive ranking. However, PROMETHEE does not provide guidance to assign weights to criteria and assumes that decision makers are able to allocate weights. This review presents an overview of PROMETHEE models applied in transportation and points out the found gaps in literature.

Live spore Sterne 34F-2 strain of Bacillus anthracis vaccine is being used to control anthrax disease in Bangladesh. After produced this vaccine in Livestock Research Institute (LRI) under the Department of Livestock Services (DLS), it is distributed at the farmers level through district and Upazila Livestock Offices. In these distribution pathways, the vaccine has been transported and stored for a few days in each station. The present study was carried out to evaluate the humoral immune response of the anthrax vaccine and to measure the impact of existing transportation and storage systems on immunity status. For that a total of 60 cattle were randomly selected , divided into three groups and used the vaccines collected from three distribution points. Serum samples were collected before and after the 1st month, 4th month, 7th 10th, and 13th month of vaccination respectively the anthrax antibody level in blood were monitored. The optical density was converted to ELISA units (EU) and used to express the antibody level in the vaccinated animals. It was significantly increased above the protection level (1.00) for a year. Before vaccination, the average ELISA unit of serum sample was 0.18± 0.01, after vaccination it was raised above the protective level (1.00) within one month and continued up to a year. In the chi-square test (95% confidence level), there was no significant difference (p<.05) ELISA unit among the three groups that means no impact on vaccine distribution points on the immunity level of the studied animal. The Sterne 34F-2 strain Bacillus anthracis vaccine has been found to be efficacious to protect animals from anthrax in the rural areas and no significant impact on immune response due to existing transportation and storage facilities.

Bu çalışma, kekik (Origanum onites L.) ve biberiye (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) bitkilerinden elde edilen uçucu yağların Fusarium solani‘ye karşı antifungal aktivitesini tespit etmek amacıyla laboratuvar ortamında yürütülmüştür. Bitkilerden elde edilen uçucu yağlar 1, 2 ve 4 μl dozunda otoklav edilen Patates Dekstroz Agar (PDA) besi yerine ilave edilmiştir. Patojenlere ait 8 mm çapında miselyum diskleri PDA besi yerlerine ekilmiştir. Kontrol grubu olarak uçucu yağlardan ari PDA besi yeri kullanılmıştır. PDA’lı petriler 24±1oC’da 7 gün inkübasyona bırakılmıştır. İnkübasyon sonrasında fungusların koloni çapları ölçülerek, kontrol grubuna göre bitki uçucu yağlarının % engelleme oranları hesaplanmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen verilere göre, Rosmarinus officinalis L. uçucu yağının yüksek dozu (4 μl) test edilen Fusarium solani’ye karşı %71,72 etki göstermiş ve doz seviyesi arttıkça antifungal etkinin de arttığı belirlenmiştir. Origanum onites L. uçucu yağı, uygulanan üç dozda Fusarium solani’nin misel gelişiminde %78,91-%82,70 oranları arasında engelleme göstermiştir. Çalışmada kekik ve biberiye uçucu yağları kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında Fusarium solani’ye karşı farklı seviyelerde engelleyici etkiler gösterdikleri tespit edilmiş ve patojenlerin koloni gelişimine en yüksek antifungal etki (%82,70) kekik uçucu yağının 2 μl ve 4 μl doz uygulamalarında saptanmıştır. Bu sonuçlar bitkilerden elde edilen uçucu yağların sentetik pestisitlere alternatif olabileceğini göstermiştir.

This study was conducted to establish the prevalence and identify the risk factors associated with trematode infections in dairy cattle in the Boyacá Highlands, Colombia. Fecal samples collected from 300 randomly selected cattle were examined using a simple sedimentation technique for differential trematodes egg count. The animals were found shedding eggs of three groups of trematodes, namely Fasciola hepatica, Paramphistomum cervi and Cotylophoron cotylophorum. The specific prevalence of this trematodes were 11.6%, 9.3%, and 3.7% respectively. A substantial overlap was observed in the appearance of F. hepatica y P. cervi. The prevalence of the three trematodes identified in this study was significantly associated (p<0.05) with body condition and breed, while the prevalence of Fasciola hepatica and Paramphistomum cervi, was associated with age. The prevalence of the three main trematodes of importance for animal health with a high rate of mixed infection along with a poor body condition, suggests a substantial economic loss incurred due to reduced productivity of livestock in the study area.

Authors: Orellana M. C. , Ayala I.
Published: April 2021

Técnicas como la resección mucosa endoscópica y la disección submucosa endoscópica son prácticas terapéuticas mínimamente invasivas, ampliamente difundidas en medicina humana, pero desconocidas en medicina veterinaria. Este estudio preliminar comparó 4 soluciones de inyección submucosa a nivel gástrico: ácido hialurónico, glicerol al 10%, almidón al 6% y solución salina fisiológica al 0,9%. Inyectando 5 ml de cada solución en estómagos ex vivo de cerdo y posteriormente valorando el perfil de elevación de cada sustancia, se compararon los grupos por medio de la prueba t de Student con p<0,05. El diámetro inicial de la elevación de mucosa no mostró diferencias entre grupos y estuvieron en torno a los 4 cm. La altura máxima fue obtenida por el ácido hialurónico (10,3 mm). Finalmente, el ácido hialurónico mostró el mayor tiempo de permanencia (68 minutos). Estos resultados preliminares, son prometedores por cuanto permiten el primer acercamiento de médicos veterinarios a estas técnicas.

Se describe el caso de una gata mestiza de 4 meses de edad, encontrada en situación de abandono. Al examen clínico presentaba circunstancias poco favorables: baja condición corporal, pelo hirsuto y sintomatología respiratoria con secreciones nasales y oculares bilaterales. Las constantes fisiológicas mostraron taquicardia, disnea y fiebre; a la auscultación se percibieron estertores, estridores, sibilancias y aumento de la matidez pulmonar. Los resultados del hemograma evidenciaron alteraciones asociadas a una anemia regenerativa, anisocitosis y policromatofilia moderadas, desvío a la izquierda con presencia de bandas, trombocitopenia e inclusiones intracitoplasmáticas compatibles con Histoplasma sp. Los exámenes radiológicos demostraron un patrón intersticial característico de enfermedad pulmonar. Se efectuó tratamiento con oxitetraciclina IV (10 mg/kg c/12 h) y ketoconazol PO (10 mg/kg c/24 h). También se aplicó terapia sintomática de sostenimiento, la cual fue insuficiente para conservar la vida del animal. La necropsia y consecuente histopatología de pulmón, corazón, médula ósea, bazo, hígado, riñón e intestino, confirmaron el diagnóstico de histoplasmosis. Las lesiones observadas microscópicamente permiten sugerir un proceso infeccioso multifactorial; primero una enfermedad neoplásica (linfoma multicéntrico difuso de células grandes en médula ósea y linfonodo), asociada a virus de la leucemia felina, negativa inicialmente por inmunocromatografía y luego micosis sistémica (especialmente pulmón y linfonodo) ocasionada por Histoplasma sp.
