    This study was aimed to examine the effect of black tea extract addition in diet containing 4% and 6% sunflower oil on ewe physiological responses and blood profiles from late pregnancy until early lactation. This study was designed using a 2×2 factorial completely randomized design with 5 replications on 20 late-pregnant ewes. The first factor was two levels of sunflower seed oil (4% and 6%) and the second factor was the levels of black tea extract addition (0 ppm and 500 ppm). Data were analyzed by using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's multiple range test. Results showed that supplementation of sunflower seed oil and black tea extract had no effect on physiological responses and blood profiles of ewe during late pregnancy until early lactation except for erythrocyte numbers. Erythrocyte numbers were higher on 6% sunflower seed oil supplementation than that of 4% (P<0.05). In conclusion, addition of black tea extract in diets containing 4% and 6% sunflower seed oil limitedly affect physiological responses and blood profiles of ewe

    Lung cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide and the number one cause of death in Indonesia. As the name implies, lung cancer is a disease activity in which cells in the body develop out of control and are localized in the lungs. Lung cancer has many underlying etiologies and risk factors, but the majority is due to smoking habits which are still high. Now, the world is being hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, which makes lung cancer patients have to be vigilant because they have a high risk of severity if infected. This study aims to describe the characteristics of the incidence of lung cancer at Siloam MRCCC Semanggi Hospital in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. This research is a type of descriptive analytic research. The use of data comes from secondary data from archives of anatomical pathology laboratories, with the inclusion criteria for the sample being all patients diagnosed with lung cancer in the 2019-2020 period and having complete archives and data on the results of anatomical pathology examinations. Based on the results of the analysis, it was found that 35.5% of cases were distributed in the age group of 60-69 years, 58.6% were male, 70.4% were of the Adenocarcinoma type, 45.5% were advised to carry out further examination of the target of therapy, 15.9% used tissue biopsy as a histopathological examination technique and 32.5% used pleural effusion specimens for cytological examination.

    The objectives of this research were: 1) to find out whether acid rain has taken place in Bogor Regency area and its effect on the lead (Pb) content in soil and roughage in the region, 2) to predict the correlation of Pb content in rain water and soil, and the content of Pb in roughage in the Bogor regency area, 3) to study the impact of acid and Pb content in the ration to sheep daily gain and measure Pb content in liver, kidney and meat. The results showed that in Bogor regency area the acid rain occurred during the dry season but not in the wet season. The Pb content in the rainwater and soil were not affected by acid rain. There was no correlation of Pb content between soil and roughage. Acid containing ration decreased daily gain, but not for the ration of high Pb-content. Acid containing ration increased Pb content in the kidney but not in the liver and meat. However, high Pb content in the ration increased the Pb content in the liver and kidney but not in the meat. Key words: acid rain, Pb, Bogor, local shee

    Improving pulse crops as a source of protein, starch and micronutrients

    Pulse crops have been known for a long time to have beneficial nutritional profiles for human diets but have been neglected in terms of cultivation, consumption and scientific research in many parts of the world. Broad dietary shifts will be required if anthropogenic climate change is to be mitigated in the future, and pulse crops should be an important component of this change by providing an environmentally sustainable source of protein, resistant starch and micronutrients. Further enhancement of the nutritional composition of pulse crops could benefit human health, helping to alleviate micronutrient deficiencies and reduce risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes. This paper reviews current knowledge regarding the nutritional content of pea (Pisum sativum L.) and faba bean (Vicia faba L.), two major UK pulse crops, and discusses the potential for their genetic improvement
