SURVEI SEROLOGIS TOXOPLASMOSIS PADA TERNAK KAMBING (Capra sp.) DENGAN METODE TOXOPLASMA MODIFIED AGLUTINATION TEST (To-MAT) DI DESA PURWOSARI, KECAMATAN METRO UTARA, KOTA METRO
Toxoplasmosis is a zoonotic disease caused by parasitic protozoa, Toxoplasma gondii. Transmission of toxoplasmosis can occur through direct infection, ie when humans eat meat from infected animals and are eaten half-cooked. Goats are one of the most half-cooked animals such as satay. In the city of Bandarlampung the prevalence of toxoplasmosis in goats circulating in the community reached 60%. This study aims to determine the prevalence and level of toxoplasmosis infection in goat livestock in Purwosari Village, Metro Utara. This research was conducted from November to December 2018. This type of research was descriptive using serological with the To-MAT (Toxoplasma Modified Aglutination Test) method. The result of the study found that in Purwosari, Metro Utara the prevalence of toxoplasmosis in goats circulating in the community reached 96,67%. Keywords: Capra sp., To-MAT Method, Toxoplasmosi
Sonography of ruptured appendicitis
Three girls and 4 boys with the final diagnosis of ruptured appendicitis underwent 19 sonographic studies, 5 before any therapy was instituted and 14 follow-up studies. Four abscesses identified before treatment and 2 seen postoperatively were ovoid, irregularly marginated, and contained lowamplitude echoes. Gastrointestinal ileus with gas- and fluid-filled loops of bowel made the studies technically difficult. Follow-up studies also showed fluid collections distant from the original abscesses. The complete resolution of the abscess was followed sonographically in 1 patient treated with antibiotics. Ultrasound can be useful in confirming or suggesting the diagnosis of ruptured appendicitis in the child with abdominal pain, but careful attention to detail is necessary in these technically difficult studies.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/48131/1/261_2005_Article_BF02035110.pd
CT and ultrasound in abscess detection at specific anatomic sites: A study of 198 patients
Records of 902 patients with possible abdominal abscess were reviewed and of these 198 had abscesses on at least one occasion imaged either with ultrasound (US) or computed tomography (CT). There were 235 episodes of either one or simultaneous multiple abscesses. Sensitivities of CT and US were analyzed according to anatomic site. The nature of errors made was tabulated. CT was significantly more sensitive than US for the detection of abdominal abscess. Causes of CT and US error in abscess detection are discussed, and recommendations regarding choice of exam and means of improving performance are made.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/26859/1/0000424.pd

Valorisation of Biowastes for the Production of Green Materials Using Chemical Methods
With crude oil reserves dwindling, the hunt for a sustainable alternative feedstock for fuels and materials for our society continues to expand. The biorefinery concept has enjoyed both a surge in popularity and also vocal opposition to the idea of diverting food-grade land and crops for this purpose. The idea of using the inevitable wastes arising from biomass processing, particularly farming and food production, is, therefore, gaining more attention as the feedstock for the biorefinery. For the three main components of biomass—carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins—there are long-established processes for using some of these by-products. However, the recent advances in chemical technologies are expanding both the feedstocks available for processing and the products that be obtained. Herein, this review presents some of the more recent developments in processing these molecules for green materials, as well as case studies that bring these technologies and materials together into final products for applied usage
