The benefits of flushing with Lemuru fish oil as a source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on the performance of reproductive parameters in Garut ewes.

This study aimed to evaluate and analyze the effects of a flushing diet containing Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) from Lemuru (Sardinella sp) fish oil on the reproductive performance parameters of Garut ewes. Forty (n = 40) primiparous Garut ewes aged 12-14 months with an average body weight of 28.92 ± 4.

Production, characterization, and application of Pseudoxanthomonas taiwanensis biosurfactant: a green chemical for microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR).

Biosurfactants, as microbial bioproducts, have significant potential in the field of microbial enhanced oil recovery (MEOR). Biosurfactants are microbial bioproducts with the potential to reduce the interfacial tension (IFT) between crude oil and water, thus enhancing oil recovery. This study aims to investigate the production and characterization of biosurfactants and evaluate their effectiveness in increasing oil recovery.

Use of irradiated chitosan as a matrix for slow-release urea and fermentation characteristics of slow-release urea supplementation in ruminant rations.

Background And Aim: Irradiated chitosan can be used as a matrix for slow-release urea (SRU) production. This study aimed to (1) determine the optimal formulation of irradiated chitosan matrix for controlling nitrogen release and (2) evaluate the characteristics of SRU fermentation based on irradiated chitosan as a feed supplement.

Materials And Methods: In the first phase of the investigation, four chitosan-based SRU formulations with varying amounts of acrylamide (3 and 5 g) and gamma irradiation (5 and 10 kGy) were evaluated.

Utilization of Primary Health Care Under National Health Insurance in Samarinda Municipality, East Kalimantan Province, Indonesia.

Aim: In Indonesia, basic community health services are provided to all citizens through Primary Health Care (PHC) settings under the National Health Insurance (NHI) scheme. The insurance is compulsory and provides basic community health needs. Based on a gatekeeper concept, the PHC is deemed to be the first contact point for all basic healthcare needs.

Green synthesis of copper ions nanoparticles functionalized with rhamnolipid as potential antibacterial agent for pathogenic bacteria.

Copper-based nanoparticles possess broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, making them a cost-effective alternative to other metal-based nanoparticles. The development of eco-friendly copper based nanopaticles using biodegradable and non-toxic biosurfactants, such as rhamnolipid is being explored in this study. In the present study, Cu(I)-rhamnolipid nanoparticles (Cu(I)-Rl Nps) was prepared by coprecipitation method.
