Background and Aim: In the global pig farming industry, artificial insemination (AI) is widely used to propagate high-quality genetics using processed semen that can be stored for extended periods. However, boar sperm are particularly susceptible to oxidative damage during storage and cryopreservation because of their high polyunsaturated fatty acid content. This study aimed to systematically review the impact of resveratrol (RVT), a potent antioxidant, on the preservation of boar semen. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive meta-analysis was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Relevant articles were retrieved from databases such as Scopus, ScienceDirect, and PubMed using specific keywords. After a thorough screening, 10 studies were selected for inclusion. Data extracted from these studies included parameters such as sperm motility, viability, DNA integrity, and lipid peroxidation levels. Results: Resveratrol supplementation in boar semen extenders significantly improved sperm quality under various storage conditions, including waterbath and cooled and frozen semen. RVT’s antioxidative properties effectively reduced reactive oxygen species and prevented oxidative stress-related damage to sperm cells. Conclusion: The addition of resveratrol to semen extenders enhances the preservation of boar sperm by mitigating oxidative damage, potentially increasing the success rate of AI in the swine industry.

Abstract: Objective: The study aimed to conduct a comparative analysis of the effects of incorporating hydrazinyl coumarin derivative (HCD) in resin-modified (RMGIC) and conventional glass ionomer cement (cGIC) on their release profiles and antibacterial properties. Method: Resin-modified GIC, Fuji II LC (F2) and high-fluoride cGIC, Fuji VII (F7) were used as controls. HCD was synthesized in-house, incorporated into both RMGIC and cGICs at 1 % and 2 % weight percentages (w/w), and chemically analyzed using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Then, the F2 containing HCD (GIC-HCD F2) and F7 containing HCD (GIC-HCD F7) were evaluated for HCD and fluoride release profiles using UV Visible spectrophotometer and pH/ISE benchtop fluoridemeter, respectively. The antibacterial properties were assessed against Streptococcus sanguinis using the agar well diffusion method and measurement of bacterial growth turbidity, followed by the observation of the bacterial morphology using scanning electron microscope. The data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc tests. Results: The FTIR spectra confirmed the presence of HCD in the GIC-HCD matrices. HCD was successfully released from both GIC-HCD F2 and GIC-HCD F7 matrices at both weight percentages. Higher fluoride release and inhibitory zones were observed compared to the control groups, with GIC-HCD F2 having a more significant effect than GIC-HCD F7. Additionally, the incorporation of HCD slowed down the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis and showed remarkable changes in bacterial shape specifically on GIC-HCD F2. Conclusion: The incorporation of HCD into both RMGIC and cGIC improved fluoride release and enhanced the antibacterial activities, with a more significant effect observed in RMGIC compared to cGIC.

This study was performed to investigate the phytochemical properties of Sunkist peel ethanol extract and their possible effects on improving diabetic nephropathy. To get the extract, the Sunkist peels were macerated and the extract was analyzed by GC-MS. An in vivo assay of five different groups of 25 male Wistar rats was then performed using the extracts. The groups included control, standard, 500 mg/kg extract, 750 mg/kg extract, and 1,500 mg/kg BW extract. All rats were sacrificed after 28 days of treatment and VEGF level serum and kidney histology analysis were performed. The VEGF data were first analyzed descriptively, followed by one-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test based on the data distribution. Meanwhile, the kidney histology was observed and narratively described. Results showed that the Sunkist peel ethanol extract has a potential effect to suppress the VEGF level (p-value < 0.05). The extract at the highest dose revealed the mildest pathology damage in the form of tubular structure degeneration without any glomerular damage. This study indicates that Sunkist peel extract has nephroprotective effects from its various phytochemical compounds that work as antioxidants and anti-inflammation.

Introduction: Fulfillment of economic, social and cultural rights is a reflection of guaranteeing human rights. However, the economic, social and cultural rights of every citizen must be supported by their status as a citizen. Because a person's citizenship status has the effect of giving them a number of rights as a citizen. This problem occurs for Sangir Filipino residents whose citizenship status is unclear. Purposes of the Research: Is to examine and analyze the ideal policies taken by the government, especially the regional government of Bitung City, North Sulawesi Province, in addressing issues that provide economic, social and cultural rights for Sangir Filipino residents who have unclear citizenship status, so that this has an impact. on Providing their rights as part of providing human rights. Methods of the Research: In this research is normative juridical research using statutory regulations and a contextual approach. The sources of legal materials used in this research are primary legal materials, secondary legal materials and tertiary legal materials. This legal material was obtained through literature review and then explained qualitatively. Results of the Research: Show that the citizenship status of Sangir Filipino residents does not clearly have an impact on the provision of economic, social and cultural rights. There is a need for policies by the Regional Government and the Central Government, such as updating national laws that simplify the citizenship registration process, providing outreach to Sangir Filipino residents about the importance of a clear citizenship status, and the need for participation from all elements of society in order to overcome this problem.

Background: The fungus comb is a unique structure inside termites' nests that facilitates the growth of Termitomyces sp. as a nutrient source for the termites. It is known to possess immunomodulatory properties that boost the immune system. Aim: This objective of this study was to assess the impact of ethyl acetate extract of fungus comb (EAEFC) on the inflammatory reaction in the spleen of mice induced by intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods: An experimental study was conducted using a post-test-only control group design with male BALB/C mice (n=24). The mice were divided randomly into four groups, each comprising six mice, and administered substances via gavage. Groups I and III were administered a solution of 5% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in distilled water, while Groups II and IV were given 500 mg/kg BW EAEFC dissolved in 5% DMSO. On the fifteenth day, Groups I and II received intraperitoneal injection of 5 ml/kg BW saline, while Groups III and IV were injected with 10 mg/kg BW lipopolysaccharide (LPS) dissolved in saline. After three hours, the mice were euthanized and splenic immunohistology was examined under a light microscope. The results were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (SD), while the group differences were assessed statistically. Results: The expression of interleukin (IL)-1, furin, and activated NK cell was significantly higher in the inflamed model after EAEFC supplementation, while the extract suppressed IL-10. Conclusion: EAEFC was found to alter cytokine expression in the spleen in response to inflammation. [Open Vet J 2024; 14(9.000): 2269-2279]

Equipment, machinery, and labor are fundamental assets of an organization. Therefore, companies must have an appropriate and scheduled maintenance system. However, many manufacturing companies neglect maintenance, leading to frequent machine breakdowns that can result in machine downtime and financial losses. This research aims to determine the machine maintenance interval and the types of actions to be taken. The method employed is Reliability Centered Maintenance with the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis approach to identify failure patterns in a system and formulate the best strategies for designing a maintenance system. The results indicate that the CS-20 Type B mixer is the most critical machine, which can significantly reduce the company's production output due to machine downtime during the repair process. Based on the Reliability Maintenance method, the maintenance interval for components with potential failures is 273.17 hours for the bearing component, experiencing breakdowns three times with the highest damage occurrence within one year.

This study examined the fermentation duration in relation to the effectiveness of tannin levels in mangrove (Sonneratia alba) fruit during the fermentation process using Aspergillus niger. The tested durations were 7, 10, 13, and 16 days in anaerobic conditions. The outcomes measured included crude fat, crude fibre, and nitrogen-free extract digestibility. Microbial biomass, protozoa population, and methane gas production were also recorded as responses to the rumen microbial activity. The results showed that 16 days of fermentation gave the highest average for all responses. The protozoa population reached around 4.07 × 105 cells/ml and methane gas amounted to 33.9 ml/g of dry matter (DM). This is caused by a decrease in the anti-nutrient tannin content in mangrove (S. alba) fruit due to fermentation by A. niger according to treatment. The conclusion of this research is that the 16-day fermentation treatment (T4) of mangrove fruit is the optimal time to be used as a source of concentrate feed for livestock in terms of the increase in nutritional value and gastrointestinal microbes represented by total protozoa population, crude fibre digestibility, crude fat digestibility, and the highest nitrogen-free extract digestibility. However, microbial biomass and methane gas production were not significantly different in this study.

Nutrient is one of the conditions controlled in a plant factory. Nutrient control must be based on the plant growth phase, but previous research has shown shortcomings in this area. This study aims to develop a nutrient control system in a plant factory based on the plant growth phase, specifically using Romaine lettuce. The research method used is the experimental method, with research stages including system design (controller modification, programming, and TDS sensor calibration testing) and system performance testing. The TDS sensor calibration test results showed an R² of 0.9999, indicating that the TDS sensor readings are very close to those of the TDS meter. The system performance test results showed that the developed system works well in controlling nutrient levels based on the growth phase of Romaine lettuce. The planting process lasted 30 days, from October 13, 2023, to November 11, 2023, with a total of 2,697 data points recorded by Antares. Nutrient requirements were adjusted per the growth phase of Romaine lettuce, with set points in the first to fourth weeks being 500 PPM, 600 PPM, 700 PPM, and 800 PPM, respectively. The average nutrient levels recorded in the first week were 518 PPM, 623 PPM in the second week, 721 PPM in the third week, and 820 PPM in the fourth week. The TDS sensor accuracy test results showed an R² of 0.9998, indicating that the TDS sensor performed well in controlling nutrient levels during the system testing, with an average TDS sensor reading error of only 1.17%. During the planting process, the total amount of nutrients added for each of nutrients A and B was 210.10 ml, with the total operating time of the control components being 314.34 seconds for each peristaltic pump of nutrients A and B.

Demonstrating good writing skills in English is considered important to master for students in tertiary level. In addition, as higher education institutions in Indonesia have been conducting teaching and learning activities online to mitigate COVID-19 viral spread, students' engagement in learning has been reported to be low due to boredom and tiresome in an online learning environment. Therefore, teachers need to plan and implement strategies to promote students' skills in writing and students' engagement in learning activities, in this case writing course. One of them is by practicing peer feedback. The purpose of this paper is to critically review peer feedback in improving Indonesian adult learners' writing skills in English course. In this literature review, 23 documents (a book chapter and peer-reviewed articles) were synthesized to find how peer feedback is relevant and beneficial in the tertiary education context. This paper argues that peer feedback is advantageous in improving adult learners' writing skills in that it facilitates meaning negotiation, it fosters critical thinking, and it promotes collaborative learning. However, teachers should anticipate possible issues emerging in peer feedback practice by providing pre-requisite training for students.
