    Get PDF
    Considering the current situation, relatively little research has been conducted on wild mushrooms to date. Many species of wild mushrooms are found in nature. Discovering new species of these hidden mushrooms, properly identifying them, exploring new compounds hidden in them, and writing new literature would be novel research in the future. In this way, the properties and diversity of wild mushrooms can be further explored. Wild mushrooms can be a valuable new source of pharmacologically active substances, nutraceuticals, and cosmeceuticals, which could be exploited for diverse medical applications in the future, particularly those requiring accurate pharmacogenetic fingerprints. The purpose of the present review study is to compile the information on wild mushrooms discovered by our scientists and researchers from different places and to discuss their medicinal and nutraceutical properties. So accurate data and guidance can be obtained in future research work

    Indonesia is a fertile country with a tropical climate, which makes it a country with great potential to produce commodities in the agricultural sector. Farming is defined as a business in the agricultural sector (food, horticulture, ornamental crops, plantations, fisheries, forestry, and livestock). The population in this study is all farmers who are members of Subak Munggu, where the sample was deliberately determined through a census of 70 farmers. To analyze income uncertainty, production and income value data are needed, then measure the spread of risk using a quantitative approach that can be calculated using the expected yield value as an indicator of the probability of investment and the variety and standard deviation measures as risk indicators. The higher the value of the coefficient of variation, the higher the risk to a farm, and vice versa. So, it can be said that the farmer who has the highest coefficient of variation is the riskiest. The lower limit of the highest yield or the upper limit of income is the lowest nominal value of the income that the farmer may receive. If the value is less than zero, then it is likely that the farmer will suffer losses

    Community welfare is largely determined by household food security. Through the sustainable food yard (P2L) program, it is hoped that it can maintain household food security. The purpose of the study was to determine the pattern of utilization of the results of the P2L program. The location of the study was in the KWT Pangansari in Dusun Cengkilung, Penguyangan Village, North Denpasar District, Denpasar City. Respondents were determined by census as many as 25 people who were members of the KWT Pangansari. Data collection was carried out through structured, in-depth interviews and documentation. Data analysis was carried out descriptively, qualitatively, and quantitatively. The results of the study showed that the average age of respondents was 46.68 years, and the average education was 10.2 years, which was equivalent to high school. The pattern of utilization of the results of the P2L program production for consumption was 49.4%, commercialized 41% and socialized 9.6%. The development pattern of the P2L Program in maintaining the sustainability of the P2L Program is characterized by the characteristics of group members and the knowledge of KWT members, which is relatively high regarding the P2L program, and the pattern of utilization of production results,,

    Supply Chain Operational Reference (SCOR) is an approach that can be used to map processes in the supply chain. Process mapping is very useful for understanding the flow of products, money and information. Process mapping can make it easier to evaluate supply chain management weaknesses. This paper aims to map the process flow using the SCOR approach at the Kintamani Bali Arabica coffee processing unit. SCOR contains a structured hierarchy of goods, money and information flow processes which are described in three levels. Level 1 in the supply chain of the Kintamani Bali Arabica coffee processing unit describes the implementation of the planning process, source, make, and delivery. Level 2 shows the process category which consists of two process categories based on stock for processing fresh coffee and based on order-based processes for processing green bean, roasted and ground coffee. Level 3 shows the stages of process elements in each category. This level starts from the entire supply chain planning process stage, to the customer order delivery process stage. The results of this paper describe the structure of the SCOR model at the Kintamani Bali Arabica coffee processing unit connecting all interrelated product, money and information flow processes

    Comprehensive analysis of adrenal crisis management: Emergency and paramedic interventions in acute endocrine emergencies

    No full text
    Background: Adrenal crisis, also known as Addisonian crisis, is a life-threatening emergency caused by acute adrenal insufficiency, which can result from various factors including autoimmune adrenalitis, infections, physical trauma, and sudden discontinuation of glucocorticoid treatment. The condition is associated with significant mortality rates and rapid clinical deterioration if not promptly treated. Early recognition and immediate intervention are essential for improving patient outcomes. This article explores the management of adrenal crisis in emergency medical settings, focusing on paramedic interventions. Aim: This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the clinical management of adrenal crisis, with a particular focus on the role of paramedics and emergency medical services (EMS) in early intervention and patient stabilization. Methods: A review of current literature on adrenal crisis was conducted, with emphasis on the pathophysiology, precipitating factors, clinical features, and emergency management strategies. Key interventions by paramedics, including fluid resuscitation, administration of hydrocortisone, and supportive care, were examined. Results: The study found that prompt administration of parenteral glucocorticoids, particularly hydrocortisone, significantly improves survival rates. Paramedics play a crucial role in early diagnosis, stabilization, and rapid transportation to healthcare facilities.&nbsp

    Recently, the area where Porang is planted has become more and more widespread in the Bali region because it is increasingly in demand among farmers. Based on 2021 data, the planting area of Porang plants in Bali has reached 974 hectares spread throughout Bali. The income promised from this farming business is certainly very profitable for farmers, but of course as a new commodity, Porang farmers face various risks in cultivating it. This research data analyzed quantitatively to find out the amount of income and how it relates to the knowledge of Porang farmers. The population is 200 farmers who are members of the Bali Porang Farmers Association (P3B), 15% of the sample was taken, namely 30 Porang farmers. Farmer's knowledge is everything that farmers know regarding activities regarding the Porang plant and also business opportunities or employment opportunities for farmers. Knowledge is an aspect of behavior that is mainly related to the ability to remember material that has been studied. Farming income is the difference between the farming income obtained and the total farming expenditure

    This study aimed to observe the chemical quality, antioxidant capacity, and physical quality of broiler meat given mangosteen rind extract in drinking water. The design used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 4 replications. The four treatments were: P0 (drinking water without mangosteen rind extract as a control), P1 (1% mangosteen rind extract in drinking water), P2 (2% mangosteen rind extract in drinking water), and P3 (3% mangosteen rind extract in drinking water). The variables observed were chemical quality, antioxidant capacity of meat, and physical quality of meat. The results showed that giving 1%, 2%, and 3% mangosteen rind extract through drinking water on the chemical quality of meat showed a significant difference (P <0.05) in protein and fat content, as well as in the antioxidant capacity of meat. The physical quality of meat showed a significant difference (P <0.05) in the value of water binding capacity, cooking loss, and raw loss. This study concludes that the administration of mangosteen peel extract to broiler chicken drinking water increases meat protein levels, reduces fat levels, and increases meat antioxidant capacity.&nbsp
