Detection of the estrous cycle is essential for basic reproductive aspects in all animals. Both natural mating and assisted reproductive techniques require estrous detection for breeding programs which will assist to maintain the tiger population in captivity. This research aims to explore alternative methods for tiger conservation in the remote area. Vaginal smear and neutrophil count were used to determine the phase of estrous cycle, and it easily applied on the field. Vaginal smears and blood smears were collected twice within interval 6 months n a female tiger at Tambling Wildlife Nature Conservation Rescue Centre. While tiger was restrained mechanically, blood samples were collected from the coccygeal vein and the vaginal smears were collected intravaginal. All procedure followed the animal welfare protocol. Vaginal smears were stained by 10% Giemsa. Basal/parabasal, intermediate, and superficial/cornified cells were identified to determine the reproductive periods under the microscope. Blood smears were stained by Giemsa-Wright. Neutrophils were counted within 200 white blood cells count under the microscope. The result showed that female tiger was in the follicular phase and neutrophil count was 78 cells at the 1 sample collection. The 2 sample collection resulted in luteal phase with 55 neutrophils count. This research suggests vaginal smear and neutrophil count can be used as an alternative method of tiger estrous phase detection. In addition, these methods have economical and practical value.

The Dayak Sampit people believe that pitcher plant is a medicine for diarrhea and gastroenteritis. This study aims to depict the ethnobotanical study of pitcher plants in the tradition of Dayak Sampit people of Singsingan Hamlet, Tehang Village, Parenggean Sub-district, Kotawaringin Timur Regency. The research method is descriptive qualitative with data collection technique of interview with key informants. The key informants include gatherer/batra at Singsingan Hamlet Tehang Village, pitcher plant users, and the village elders. The informants are selected using purposive sampling method. The research results suggest that Dayak Sampit people utilize and believe that pitcher plant roots could cure diarrhea and gastroenteritis. The Dayak Sampit people call the plant as Tabeko due to its morphological form that resembles a teapot. The plant utilization as a medicine for diarrhea and gastroenteritis by Dayak people of Singsingan hamlet is observed from the root taking and potion making stages. The plant has phytochemicals, plumbagin, 2-methylnaphthazarin, octadecyl caffeate, isoshinanolone, and droserone that indicate reaction as anti-malaria. The results suggest that pitcher plants have a potential as a medicine for diarrhea and gastroenteritis.
达亚克Sampit人相信猪笼草是治疗腹泻和肠胃炎的药。本研究旨在描述铁木尔摄政王高塔瓦林县帕林吉安街道特hang村Singsingan村达亚克Sampit人传统的猪笼草民族植物学研究。研究方法采用描述性定性方法,采用对关键线人进行访谈的数据收集技术。主要举报人包括Singsingan Hamlet Tehang村的采集者/batra、猪笼草使用者和村里的长老。采用有目的的抽样方法选择举报人。研究结果表明,达雅Sampit人利用并相信猪笼草的根可以治疗腹泻和肠胃炎。由于其形态与茶壶相似,达雅Sampit人将其称为Tabeko。从取根和制药两个阶段考察了新新安村达雅克人对腹泻和肠胃炎的药物利用。该植物含有植物化学物质,白桦素,2-甲基萘萨林,十八烷基咖啡酸酯,异草胺酮和德罗塞隆,表明对抗疟疾有反应。结果表明猪笼草有可能作为治疗腹泻和胃肠炎的药物。

Mungkus Fish (Sicyopterus sp.) is Gobiid fish inhabiting fast flowing and good quality river in Bengkulu Province. Today, it is rare to find Mungkus fish in the river. One of the extinction threats is the decline of water quality. This research was aimed to measure abiotic factor like chemical and physical factor in several rivers in Bengkulu Province where can be found Mungkus fish. Sampling was done in 8 rivers from 5 regencies. Chemical factors tested in this research were oil, Ammonia, Fe, BOD, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate, and detergent. Physical factors involved temperature, pH, DO, TSS, and TDS. The result of chemical factor test showed that chemical compounds of water from 8 rivers contained Ammonia (0.36-0.43 ppm), oil (0-40 ppm) nitrate (0.0160.79 ppm), nitrite (0.0017-0.0038 ppm), Fe (0.051-7.24 ppm), phosphate (0-0.77 ppm), and detergent (0.260.479 ppm). Data of physical test showed that temperature range was 25C (at NPS) to 28C (at LKN). Conductivity range was 4.31 μs (at LKN) to 59.01 μs (at MRS), pH 7.99-8.7, TSS 13.89 ppm to 34.23 ppm, TDS 0.022 ppt to 0.039 ppt and DO concentration reached 6,32 (LKN) to 7,99 (ARM). The result can be concluded based on abiotic factor that 8 rivers are classified as good quality rivers.

Bacillus spp. was recognized as biocontrol agent because could produce antifungal towards many phytopathogenic fungi. In relation to study the potency of B. siamensis LDR as biocontrol, antagonistic activity of the bacilli was evaluated against Fusarium sp., Ganoderma sp., and Chaetomium globosum InaCC F228. The antagonist assay was carried out by dual culture method using streak and pour plate technique. Result of antagonistic activity assay with streak technique showed that growth inhibition rate of Fusarium sp., Ganoderma sp., and Chaetomium globosum InaCC F228 were 36.83%, 55.20%, and 33.78%, respectively. Antagonist assay using pour plate technique showed that percentage growth of inhibition for Fusarium sp. (93.96%), Ganoderma sp. (100%), and Chaetomium globosum InaCC F228 (76.64%) were higher than the results from streak method. Furthermore, results from antibiosis assay showed that growth inhibition rate of Fusarium sp., Ganoderma sp., and Chaetomium globosum InaCC F228 were 10.85%, 73.31%, and 30.32% respectively.

Deer (Axis axis) are often cultivated in captivity of city park because they can be used to add population in natural habitats, beautifying city parks and as regional tourism objects. The success factors in deer breeding depend on the providing of the type of feed they like with a sufficient quantity of feed to produce a healthy deer generation. Status of a deer health is also determined by the understanding of the manager about the dynamics of their daily activities in captivity. This study aims to determine the preference of spotted deer on several types of feed given and their daily activities in captivity. The types of feed given were city vegetable wastes such as sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas), long beans (Vigna sinensis), bananas (Musa paradisiaca) and others in the form of grasses, rice bran. The study was conducted from May to July 2015 in Wari Park Captivity, Lahat City. The study of feed preferences used the Neu method. Nine individuals (3 adult males, 3 adult females and 3 juveniles) were given five kinds of food. The results showed that spotted deers more preferred bananas and sweet potatoes with preference index w> 1 than rice bran, long beans and grasses (w <1). The higher daily activities of Axis axis in captivity were resting (42.92%), moving or locomotion (26.30%), and eating (22.89%), while the lower activities were social activity (1,04%), faecal disposal (1.09%), Agonistic (2.37%) and grooming

Initial detection of body temperature with infrared technology is currently only used for diagnosis of an infectious disease, but has not been used as a parameter to prevent disease transmission, resulting in an increase in the rate of disease transmission. The use of a device to measure the increase in body temperature of school pupils, namely the mercury thermometer, requires physical contact or contact with the body between the gauge, the measured school student and the measuring instrument, and requires a long time, so that it will interfere with learning activities at school. Physical contact when using a mercury thermometer can potentially be a medium for disease transmission. This study aims to analyze the effect of students whose body temperature is above normal who do not attend school on preventing the transmission of infectious disease and the effectiveness and accuracy of an infrared thermometer in comparison with a digital thermometer. The research design was a cross sectional or crosssectional study, where measurements were only carried out once at a time for a population in the school. The sample to be given treatment came from grade V students with a total of 40 students from 4 classes totaling 146 students. From data testing using SPSS, it was found that the use of an infrared thermometer was effective almost 100% in preventing outbreaks of transmission of infectious diseases in elementary school-aged students. The infrared thermometer is easy to operate and gives students a sense of security and comfort. So that early detection of body temperature with infrared technology for the prevention of endemic outbreaks of infectious diseases in elementary school children is highly recommended.
