Yanto H , Junianto , Rostika R, Andriani Y, Tanuwiria UH. 2018. Effect of different levels of fermented rice bran for the growth of jelawat, Leptobarbus hoevenii. Nusantara Bioscience 10: 81-86. The prime objective of this study is to find the optimum level of fermented rice bran in diets beneficial to improve the digestive enzyme activity, growth and feed efficiency for jelawat (Leptobarbus hoevenii Bleeker). Different levels of fermented rice bran in the diets, i.e., A1 (10%), A2 (20%), A3 (30%), A4 (40%), and A5 (10% non-fermented rice bran), as well as A6 (10% commercial diet) was designed as a treatments during the study. The experimental diets with the same protein (isonitrogenous) and energy (isocaloric) were fed to jelawat fingerlings with an average of 32.57±0.15 g per fish. The results showed that amylase activities were significantly increased with the increased level of fermented rice bran levels in the diets and it was significantly different among the treatments (P<0,05). Proteins and lipids contents of the body and their retention rate, daily growth rates, and feed efficiencies were also significantly different among the treatments (P<0.05). It was concluded from the present investigation that up to 30% of fermented rice bran in the diet was best for jelawat with an optimum level of 25.66-26.78% for the growth performance and feed efficiency of jelawat.

<p>This experiment was conducted to determine the dietary zinc requirement of young giant gouramy. Five experimental diets were used in this experiment containing iso-nitrogenous and iso-energy with different levels of zinc (0, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg per kg). The initial means of body weight of body the fishes was 0.82 g per individual. The fishes were fed upon the diets at satiation, three times daily, for 12 weeks. The results indicated no zinc deficiency symptoms in this experiment. The daily growth rate, feed efficiency, survival rates and protein and lipid retention were not significantly different from all the diets. However, fish fed upon 25 mg Zn/kg diets produced the highest protein and total digestibility. The zinc contents of 25 mg Zn/kg diets gave the highest value in zinc accumulation in the bone, blood serum and eyes. The highest accumulation of the zinc in the liver occurred in 50 mg Zn/kg diets. There was increase in zinc content of the tissues after increasing levels of dietary zinc. Thus, Zn requirement for juvenile of giant gouramy was 25-50 mg/kg diets.</p> <p>Keywords: <em>Osphronemus gouramy</em>, Zinc, diet</p> <p> </p> <p>ABSTRAK</p> <p>Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui kebutuhan seng dalam pakan untuk benih ikan gurame.  Lima jenis pakan percobaan yang diuji mengandung iso-nitrogen dan iso-energi dengan kadar seng (Zn) yang berbeda (0, 25, 50, 100, and 200 mg per kg).  Bobot rata-rata benih yang digunakan adalah 0,82 g per ekor.  Ikan dipelihara selama 12 minggu dan diberi pakan 3 kali sehari.  Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada gejala defisiensi Zn.  Laju pertumbuhan harian, efisiensi pakan, kelangsungan hidup dan rentesi protein dan lemak tidak berbeda nyata untuk semua perlakuan.  Namun demikian, ikan yang diberi Zn sebanyak 25 mg/kg pakan menghasilkan kecernaan total dan protein tertinggi.  Perlakuan tersebut juga menghasilkan akumulasi Zn tertinggi dalam tulang, serum darah dan mata.  Akumulasi Zn tertinggi dalam hati diperoleh pada perlakuan 50 mg Zn/kg pakan.  Kandungan Zn dalam jaringan meningkat sejalan dengan meningkatnya kadar Zn dalam pakan.

Different Levels

High ambient temperature reduces feed intake, live weight gain, and feed efficiency (Siegel, 1995), thus negatively influencing the performance of broilers. Heat stress has also been shown to suppress immune responses of broiler. Chromium is an essential nutrient required to promote the action of insulin in body tissues so that the body can use sugars, proteins and fats. Cr deficiency can disrupt carbohydrate and protein metabolism, reduce insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues and impair growth rate (Vincent, 2000).Chromium is important in altering the immune response by immunostimulatory or immunosuppressive processes as shown by its effects on T and B lymphocytes, macrophages and cytokine production. Dietary chromium supplementation has been reported to have a positive effect on growth rate and feed efficiency of growing poultry under stress conditions (Sahin et al., 2002). Another reason for supplementing chromium is due to the fact that chromium is excreted excessively during stress (Anderson, 1994). Also the dietary requirement of livestock for chromium has not been defined yet (NRC, 1997). This study was to investigate the effects of different levels of Cr nicotinate on the growth performance and antibody titres against Newcastle and Influenza disease in broilers.

Calcium Effect

Pertumbuhan udang galah dibatasi oleh kulitnya yang bersifat tidak elastis, karena terdiri atas khitin. Agar udang galah tumbuh dengan baik, maka harus ada unsur mineral dalam pakannya. Salah satu mineral yang bersifat esensial adalah mineral kalsium. Kalsium mempunyai fungsi dalam pembentukan tulang, jaringan lunak, proses regulasi dalam tubuh, dan menjaga keseimbangan asam basa. Oleh karena peran penting dari kalsium tersebut, maka dilakukan penelitian mengenai efek mineral kalsium dalam ransum pakan udang galah terhadap pertumbuhannya. Hewan uji yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah yuwana udang galah dengan kisaran bobot 56,0 ± 3,0 mg. Rancangan penelitian menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap dengan perlakuan yang diterapkan adalah kalsium 1,0%; 3,0%; 5,0%; 7,0%; dan 0,0% sebagai kontrol. Setiap perlakuan mendapat 3 ulangan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kadar kalsium dalam ransum pakan sangat mempengaruhi laju pertumbuhan harian udang galah (P<0,05). Kadar kalsium yang optimal dalam ransum pakan udang galah adalah sebesar 3,46%.The growth of giant prawn is limited by a non elastic material called chitin, which is a limiting factor in its growth. Feed containing mineral is needed to improve its growth. One of the essential minerals is calcium. The function of calcium is essential in bone and soft tissue formations, acid balancing, and regulation processes in the body. Because of its benefits, the research on the calcium effect on giant prawn was conducted. The aims of this study was to know the effect of calcium on the growth rate of giant prawn juvenile. Test animals were juveniles of giant prawn with average weight of 56.0 ± 3.0 mg. Research design employed complete randomized design with five calcium mineral treatments as follows:1.0%, 3.0%, 5.0%, 7.0%, and 0.0% as control. Each treatment has three replications. The result showed that calcium affected the daily growth rate of giant prawn (P<0.05). The calcium dosage of 3.46% is the optimum level for giant prawn juvenile.

<p>An effective level of glycine in the diets of replacement chicks has been experimentally established at different periods of their breeding. The influence of different levels of glycine in the mixed fodders of replacement chicks on their growth and development was investigated. It was established that replacement chicks with effective level of glycine in their rations at the end of the growing period had more weight by 167 g than chicks from the control group; this value was nevertheless within the limits recommended by the developer of the cross. We also studied the influence of different glycine levels in mixed fodder of young egg chicks on the digestibility of the nutrients, the balance of nitrogen and amino acid during the whole period of chicks’ growth. It was established that the optimum level of glycine in different growing periods contributed to an increase of protein digestion by 2 percent, fat – 2 percent, fiber – 2 percent, and BER – 1 percent, compared to the control birds. The chicks’ balance of nitrogen was studied and its positive trend was registered for the poultry of all groups. Reducing the amount of glycine in chicken diets as well as its excess leads to a decrease of nitrogen contamination in their bodies. The level of glycine content in chick bodies negatively correlated with its content in the diet. This level was the smallest in animals with excessive levels of glycine in their diet, which in turn led to a decrease in its absorption. Based on the patterns of dietary glycine needs of chickens throughout the entire period of their breeding and its effect on their growth, development, digestibility of nutrients in the body, and balance of nitrogen and investigated amino acids, we calculated the linear regression equation that can be applied in the operational control or in composing of the poultry diet.</p>

<p>The objective of present study was to determine the optimum level of papain in the diet of <em>keureling </em>fish (<em>Tor tambra</em>). The complete random design was utilized in this study. Six levels of papain dosage were tested in triplicates, i.e. 0 (control); 17.5 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>,  20.0 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>, 22.5 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>, 25.0 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> and 27.5 mg kg<sup>-1</sup> of feed. The experimental fish were fed the experimental diet two times a day at 8 AM and 5 PM at feeding level of 5% body weight for 90 days. The Anova test result showed that papain enzyme  gave a significant effect on the weight gain, daily growth rate, specific growth rate, survival rate, feed conversion ratio and feed efficiency (P&lt;0.05). The Duncan multi-rage test result showed that the higher values for all measured parameters were obtained at the dosage of 27.5 mg kg<sup>-1</sup>. Therefore, it is concluded that the optimum dosage of papain enzyme for <em>keureling</em> fish was 27.5 mg kg<sup>-1 </sup>of feed.</p>

Voters face different incentives to turn out to vote in one electoral arena versus another. Although turnout is lowest in European elections, it is found that the turnout is only slightly lower in regional than in national elections. Standard accounts suggest that the importance of an election, in terms of the policy-making power of the body to be elected, drives variation in turnout across elections at different levels. This chapter argues that this is only part of the story, and that voter attachment to a particular level also matters. Not all voters feel connected to each electoral arena in the same way. Although for some, their identity and the issues they most care about are linked to politics at the national level, for others, the regional or European level may offer the political community and political issues that most resonate with them.

Abstract In various ways the movement and experience of the body is instructed by others. This may be in the dance class or on the playing field. In these interactions, one person claims knowledge of the other’s body and rights to instruct how that body functions, moves, and feels. By undertaking a close analysis of embodied and spoken interaction within performance training sessions from a multimodal conversation analytic perspective, this paper will identify one kind of broad sequential trajectory – from intimate contact to public display - that shows how an instructor claims rights over the internal workings of another’s body by traversing different levels of proximity and sensorial modalities.
