Effect of alternative protein sources on growth performance, plasma mineral concentration, bone mineralisation and mineral digestibility in broiler chickens

An experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of rapeseed meal (RSM), sunflower meal (SFM), canola meal (CM) and guar meal (GM) respectively at 50, 60, 100 and 50g/kg in a maize soyabean based diet on growth performance, plasma mineral concentration, bone mineralisation and mineral digestibility in broiler chickens. The control diet had soya bean meal (SBM; 320g/kg). Day old Hubbard broilers were allocated to five treatments each with 4 replicates and 10 birds. Partial replacement of SBM with other protein sources resulted in heavier (P<0.05) birds compared to control. Bone mineralisation was not affected (P>0.05) by diets. Plasma Ca concentration was higher (P<0.05) in birds fed GM compared to all other treatments. Retention of P, Mg, Na, Cu was increased and Ca retention was decreased in birds fed control diet whereas, no differences (P>0.05) were observed between treatments in K, Fe and Mn retention values. In conclusion, alternative protein sources improved growth but had variable effects on mineral utilisation

Identifikasi Karakteristik Sampah Elektronik (E-waste) dan Implikasinya pada Kebijakan Daerah di Kota YOGYAKARTA

Perkembangan teknologi informasi / information technology (IT) telah menjadikan sampah elektronik menjadi isu permasalahan serius seluruh di negara-negara maju namun belum mendapat perhatian yang cukup di negara berkembang. Sampah elektronik (e-waste) adalah dampak yang dihasilkan dari penggunaan barang elektronik secara masif di era teknologi informasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasikan regulasi pengelolaan sampah elektronik dan permasalahan pengelolaan sampah elektronik yang ada di Kota Yogyakarta. Dari hasil penelitian diketahui karakteristik sampah elektronik (e-waste) di Kota Yogyakarta berupa komponen – komponen kecil yang tidak terpakai dan tidak memiliki nilai ekonomi yang terkumpul di tingkat pelaku reparasi barang elektronik, pengepul hingga pelaku daur ulang sampah elektronik. Semua informan menyatakan bahwa sampah elektronik perlu dikelola dan diatur melalui aturan yang legal. Solusi untuk mengatasi sampah elektronik (e-waste) di Kota Yogyakarta dapat dilakukan dengan membuat aturan terlebih dahulu dan diikuti dengan sosialisasi mengenai bahaya sampah elektronik (e-waste) kepada masyarakat Kota Yogyakarta serta penggunaan teknologi lanjut untuk mengolah sampah elektronik agar tidak membahayakan terhadap lingkungan

A Review of Applicability of Banning (Hajre) in Jurisprudence from the Perspective of Forensic Medicine

The topic of ward is among the important topics in jurisprudence and Forensic Medicine. Banning literally means prohibiting. The term of prohibition means preventing someone from being involved in financial or non-financial affairs and is called being banned. A person is banned from all affairs such as an unlettered person or some of the affairs such as a dying person. Banning has two forms; it sometimes is in the interests of the one banned from and his/her rights and sometimes for the benefit and the right of others. The objective of this brief article is an evaluation of extent banning applicability in Forensic Medicine topics and its relation with concepts and logics of the Islamic law

Perancangan Sistem Informasi Akuntansi Penyusutan Aktiva Tetap Menggunakan Metode Garis Lurus pada Kopkar Bina Khatulistiwa

Metode penyusutan garis lurus adalah salah satu metode yang paling banyak diaplikasikan oleh Perusahaan-Perusahaan di Indonesia. Jumlah aktiva tetap yang dimiliki oleh KOPKAR Bina Khatulistiwa cukup banyak dan beragam, pembuatan laporan penyusutan aktiva tetap KOPKAR Bina Khatulistiwa dilakukan oleh karyawan bagian pembukuan. Perhitungan penyusutan aktiva tetap pada KOPKAR Bina Khatulistiwa dengan melakukan pencatatan pada Microsoft Excel. Masalah yang muncul dalam dalam laporan penyusutan dilakukan pada sheet yang berbeda sehingga membutuhkan waktu dalam pembuatan laporan. Selain itu laporan tidak disajikan berdasarkan aturan laporan yang baik. Dengan menggunakan aplikasi terkomputerisasi, karyawan bagian pembukuan dapat mengolah data penyusutan aktiva tetap yang akan menghasilkan laporan penyusutan yang dibutuhkan bagi pengguna. Selain itu, data penyusutan aktiva tetap dilaporkan oleh koordinator dalam RUPS untuk menilai penyusutan aktiva tetap sebagai oposional dan aset Perusahaan yang mengeluarkan biaya

Financial Distress in BUMN in Indonesia and Factors Affecting Financial Performance and Health Levels in BUMN Companies

This research aims to determine whether there is Financial Distress in BUMN in Indonesia and State Equity Participation. The population in this study were state-owned and non-problematic infrastructure companies registered on the BUMN court website from 2016 to 2020. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling to obtain a sample of 12 companies—data analysis techniques using panel data regression analysis method. The study results show that Return On Equity (ROE) and Capital Expenditure is significant for financial distress. BUMN receives assistance from small and insignificant State Equity Participation (PMN) and is paid to pay off large debts based on the assignment Participation (PMN), Soundness Level of BUMN, Liquidity, and Leverage do not affect solving BUMN financial problems

Distinct element analysis of inter-particle coating variability in a batch seed coater

Coating of particulate solids by a thin film layer is of interest in many industrial applications such as seed and tablet coating. In seed processing, seeds are commonly coated with a protective coating layer consisting of fertilisers and crop protection products. Rotary drum batch coaters are typically used for this purpose. The coater consists of a cylindrical vessel with a rotating spray disk in the centre, onto which the coating liquid is fed. The seeds are driven around the vessel by its rotating base, and are mixed by two baffles; one on either side of the vessel. In the present study, DEM simulations are used to analyse the seed coating process. Corn seed is used as a model material and its shape is captured using X-Ray micro-tomography (XRT). The shape is incorporated into the simulations by the clumping multiple spheres to form a particle assembly. The coating uniformity of the seeds is predicted by implementing a coating model, whereby the coating mechanism is represented in the DEM by considering that once a droplet contacts a corn seed, it is removed from the simulation and its mass is attributed to the coating mass of the corn seed. The distribution of mass of sprayed spheres on the corn seeds and the coefficient of variation are evaluated for a range of process conditions, such as spinning disk rotational speed, droplets size and baffle arrangement and designs. In addition to evaluation of coating uniformity of particles, the scale-up rules for rotary drum batch coaters are investigated and reported. The outcome provides guidelines on scale-up rules and improvement of coating uniformity for rotary batch seed coaters

Cooperation of dual modes of cell motility promotes epithelial stress relaxation to accelerate wound healing

Collective cell migration in cohesive units is vital for tissue morphogenesis, wound repair, and immune response. While the fundamental driving forces for collective cell motion stem from contractile and protrusive activities of individual cells, it remains unknown how their balance is optimized to maintain tissue cohesiveness and the fluidity for motion. Here we present a cell-based computational model for collective cell migration during wound healing that incorporates mechanochemical coupling of cell motion and adhesion kinetics with stochastic transformation of active motility forces. We show that a balance of protrusive motility and actomyosin contractility is optimized for accelerating the rate of wound repair, which is robust to variations in cell and substrate mechanical properties. This balance underlies rapid collective cell motion during wound healing, resulting from a tradeoff between tension mediated collective cell guidance and active stress relaxation in the tissue
