Titanium Dioxide Suspension Photocatalysis in a Tubular Photoreactor and Titanium Dioxide Reuse on the Removal of Phenol

We studied flow rate, electrolytes effects, titanium dioxide separation and reuse and sunlight application on photocatalysis in a tubular photoreactor integrated with the titanium dioxide separation/reuse. The circulative flow treatment was preferred over the single pass treatment. Phenol and TOC removals in tap and deionized waters were a maximum at the circulative flow rate of 600 ml min-1 and the transmittance of 0.26%. At low flow rate, titanium dioxide particles were sedimented in tap water, but those were perfectly suspended in deionized water. The titanium dioxide slurry was sedimented spontaneously by standing and was repeatedly reused without decreasing the degradation efficiency

Penetapan Tarif Rasional Pelayanan Kesehatan RSUD Tenriawaru Kabupaten Bone

Tarif pelayanan kesehatan RSUD Tenriawaru Kabupaten Bone masih berdasarkan Perda tahun 2012 sehingga perlu penelitian lebih dalam tentang tarif rasional. Penelitian bertujuan memperoleh informasi besarnya tarif rasional pelayanan beberapa pusat biaya di RSUD Tenriawaru Kabupaten Bone. Jenis penelitian observasional dimaksudkan untuk melakukan identifikasi terhadap semua karasteristik yang dipergunakan untuk menghitung total biaya (fixed cost) dan total biaya operasional tetap (semi variabel cost), dan total biaya operasional tidak tetap (variabel cost) serta tarif setiap tindakan yang ada. Sampel penelitian semua transaksi yang berkaitan dengan biaya tetap, biaya semi variabel dan biaya variabel pada pusat biaya. Pengumpulan data menggunakan teknik observasional dan dokumentasi. Analisis data menggunakan analisis biaya satuan dengan microsoft excell. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tarif berdasarkan unit cost pada unit radiologi terbesar adalahUltrasonografi Rp. 280.000,- , fisioterapi terbesar adalah tindakan dengan menggunakan gymnastic pool Rp. 250.000,- , tarif hemodialisis pada unit hemodialisa adalah Rp. 1.000.000,-, NICU terbesar adalah resusitasi Rp. 360.000,-. tarif berdasarkan unit cost dengan output normatif (BOR 80%) per kelas perawatan sebagai berikut : Kelas VIP Utama Rp. 420.000, Kelas VIP Rp. 300.000, Kelas I Rp. 240.000, Kelas II Rp. 150.000, dan Kelas III Rp. 95.000. Kesimpulan hasil perhitungan menghasilkan tarif rasional yang lebih tinggi dari tarif layanan saat ini

PAT-1 Case report: Metastatic ganglioneuroma in a Sumatran Tiger

Neuroblastic tumors, which are uncommon tumors of nerve cell origin, are classified into neuroblastoma, ganglioneuroblastoma, and ganglioneuroma depend-ing on the degree of maturation of neoplastic neuroblasts and development of schwannian stroma [2,4,7].  Ganglioneuroma is a rare neuroectodermal tumor of the peripheral nervous system. Ganglio-neuromas generally are considered to be benign neoplasms composed of both mature ganglion cells and nerve fascicles with axons, Schwann cells, fibroblasts, and other connective tissue elements [1].  The aim of this study is to clarify the pathomor-phological feature of a subcutaneous ganglio-neuroma which occurred in a Sumatran tiger.

Isolation and characterization of avian coronavirus from healthy Eclectus parrots (Eclectus roratus) from Indonesia

Background and Aim: Avian coronavirus has a wide range of hosts, from chickens and turkeys to wild birds. This virus causes an economically and, possibly, environmentally, important loss in the poultry industry. Therefore, research into the avian coronavirus in various species of birds is required. The Eclectus parrot (Eclectus roratus) is an endemic bird to Indonesia and Northern Australia and often kept as pets. At present, there has been limited information about avian coronavirus infection among birds. This study aimed to determine the presence of and to characterize avian coronavirus isolated from Eclectus parrots in Indonesia. Materials and Methods: Cloacal swab samples were taken from 10 healthy Eclectus parrots (E. roratus). Each isolate was propagated into specific pathogen-free embryonated chicken eggs. The presence of avian coronavirus was determined using three sets of primers targeting the 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR) of avian coronavirus (UTR41+/11–), the N gene of the infectious bronchitis virus (IBVN+/–), and the S1 gene of the IBV (XCE2+/XCE2–). The infectious bronchitis vaccine strain H120 was used as a positive control. Resulting positive bands were sequenced for the S1 gene. Results: None of the isolates was positive for the 3'-UTR, four isolates were positive for the N gene of infectious bronchitis, and two isolates were positive for the S1 gene of the IBV. However, only one isolate (parrot/Indonesia/BX9/16) was sequenced for the partial S1 gene with primers XCE2+/XCE2–. The partial nucleotide sequence of this isolate showed 100% homology with the IBV GI-13 lineage, specifically with a field isolate of the 4/91 variant 1 Israel and the 4/91 vaccine on the hypervariable region 3 site of the S1 gene. Conclusion: An IB-like avian coronavirus was isolated from healthy Eclectus parrots. Our results indicate that IBV has a wide range of hosts, which prompt the need to understand the interspecies connection of this virus better
