PENGARUH PEMBERIAN AMPAS KEDELAI DAN BUNGKIL INTI SAWIT YANG DIFERMENTASI DENGAN ASPERGILLUS NIGER TERHADAP BAKTERI USUS BROILER

Salah satu cara yang telah dilakukan untuk meningkatkan produktivitas broiler, antara lain dengan memberikan Antibiotic Growth Promotor (AGP). Pemberian AGP dalam ransum bertujuan merangsang pertumbuhan, memperbaiki efesiensi pakan, dan menekan angka kematian. Namun pemberian AGP dalam pakan sudah dilarang karena dapat menimbulkan berbagai masalah bagi kesehatan ayam dan juga kesehatan konsumen. Salah satu upaya dilakukan dengan mengembangkan alternatif lain melalui pakan yang mengandung growth promotor alami berupa probiotik seperti A. niger yang dibiakkan pada ampas kedelai dan bungkil inti sawit (AKBIS). Pemberian AKBIS fermentasi ini juga dapat memperbaiki kualitas bahan pakan.Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian AKBIS yang difermentasi dengan A. niger terhadap mikroflora saluran pencernaan broiler. Sampel saluran pencernaan ayam diperoleh dari 80 ekor broiler yang dibagi menjadi empat perlakuan, setiap unit empat ekor.

Incorporation of Interprofessional Education and Special Care Dentistry into Standard Dental School Curriculum

According to dentistry, special needs is defined as individuals whose medical, physical, psychological, or social situations may make it necessary to modify normal dental routines in order to provide dental treatment for that individual. The population of special needs patients is increasing. The lack of educated professionals in special care dentistry is leading to severe and untreated systemic and oral health problems in the special needs population. The implementation of interprofessional treatment for special needs individuals has proven to be the most effective method of treatment within the special needs population. This study examines the current application of special care dentistry and interprofessional education curriculum through the analysis of case studies and surveys in order to establish a reform that provides a more comprehensive implementation of classes that train oral health professionals on how to treat special needs patients. Despite newly established accreditation standards, graduating dental students are adequately prepared to engage in the treatment of special needs patients. Some studies have suggested that a mandatory post graduate year for dental students will correct this problem, however, this is an expensive solution that would present a financial burden to dental students. A system that combines special care and interprofessional education courses into a didactic and hands-on learning curriculum that will fit into curricula and surpass the CODA accreditation standards. Forming a universal special care dentistry curriculum taught through an interprofessional approach, special needs patients will not only receive better care but cost and treatment will improve as well.https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/uresposters/1200/thumbnail.jp
