“…On the other hand, GPx levels showed similar results in all treatment groups. Phenolic compounds inhibit lipid peroxidation, particularly unsaturated fatty acids [ 59 ], which leads to the antioxidant properties of the experimental feed [ 60 ]. Dietary supplements have been reported to modulate endogenous antioxidants and cell barriers [ 61 ].…”

Background and Aim: In an era of increasing concerns about food availability globally, poultry meat is being increasingly consumed rather than red meat given its quality in terms of pH, color, and tenderness, conferring consumer satisfaction. The choice of feed is a crucial factor in poultry production. This study investigated the effect of dietary supplementation with breadfruit leaf powder on growth performance, meat quality, and antioxidative activity in Japanese quail. Materials and Methods: A total of 120 day-old quail were used in this study and assigned equally into four treatment groups: Group C fed a basal diet and three treatment groups fed a basal diet supplemented with 2.5% (T1), 5% (T2), or 10% (T3) breadfruit leaf powder. The concentrations of breadfruit leaf powder were 2.5, 5, and 10 g/kg in the basal diet. Quail body weight and feed intake (FI) were evaluated at 1, 21, and 35 days of age at 7 a.m. Pectoral muscle was collected to determine pH, meat color, drip loss, cooking loss, water-holding capacity (WHC), tenderness, and antioxidant levels. All variables were analyzed statistically using ANOVA followed by Duncan's post hoc test (significance set at p<0.05). Results: T3 showed increased body weight gain of quails at 1-21 and 21-35 days (p<0.05). Feeding in the T3 group improved the feed conversion ratio compared with those in the C and T1 groups at the starter phase (p<0.05). Dietary treatment did not affect FI (p>0.05). In the present study, meat redness and WHC were improved in the T3 group (p<0.05). Meanwhile, drip loss, cooking loss, and meat tenderness were improved in the T2 group (p<0.05). The pH45 min, pH24 h, lightness, and yellowness were not influenced by the treatments (p>0.05). The antioxidative activities of superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde decreased in the T3 group (p<0.05), while no significant difference in glutathione peroxidase level (p>0.05) was identified. Conclusion: Ten grams/kilogram of breadfruit leaf powder, as administered in the T3 group, can be applied as a dietary supplement for Japanese quail to improve growth performance, meat quality, and antioxidative activity during the starter and grower periods.

“…Phenol can function as antioxidant and can also act as scavenger for other wastes in the human body [16]. Total phenolic content in Tempuyung leaf is 420 ± 6,9 mg/gr meanwhile in breadfruit leaf it is around 144,16 mg/ gr ± 17,98 mg/gr [17,18]. The one that needs to be underlined is, even though flavonoid content in breadfruit leaf is larger than tempuyung leaf but this thing is not linear with the total of phenolic content that is available in a particular plant.…”

Uric acid is a heterocyclic substance that comes from metabolic breakdown of purine compound in the body. A condition where there is a high uric acid level (>7 mg/dl) in the human body is called hyperuricemia. Some traditional plants that often be used as alternative of hyperuricemia drugs by Indonesian people are tempuyung leaf (Sonchus arvensis) and breadfruit leaf (Artocarpus altilis), both of them contain flavonoid as their active substance which is known to reduce uric acid level in the blood. This research is aimed to compare the influence of administration of tempuyung leaf extract and breadfruit leaf extract as the means of reducing uric acid in male white rats that are made hyperuricemia. This research is an experimental research with Pre and Post Test Control Group Design. The samples of this research were 24 male wistar rats that were divided into four groups randomly, they were positive and negative control groups, treatment group 1 and treatment group 2 which were respectively given dose of tempuyung leaf extract 80 mg/200 gr of BW and 0,75 gr/200 gr of BW of breadfruit leaf extract. The data was analysed by using paired Ttest. The result is significant differences (α = 0,05 > p-value = 0,000) of uric acid level before and after treatment were shown in both of treatment groups. Treatment group 2 however showed slightly higher average reduction of uric acid level compared to treatment group 1 (5,8690 vs 5,8600 respectively). In short, administration of breadfruit leaf extract (0,75 gr/200 gr of BW) was slightly more effective compared to tempuyung leaf extract (80 mg/200 gr of BW) in reducing uric acid level of white male Wistar rats.

Utilization of Empty Land for Farming Using the Hydroponic Plant Method

et al. 2022

Hydroponics is a technique of cultivating plants (Fruits, Vegetables, and Flowers) by utilizing water and not using soil as a plant medium. Types of hydroponic plants will produce types of plants that are free from pests and diseases. Growing plants with a hydroponic system is an environmentally friendly method because in its cultivation there is no need to use pesticides or even toxic hebicides. Vegetables grown with a hydroponic system are vegetables that will be fresher and free of pesticides. When compared to ordinary vegetables grown with soil media, the nutritional content of hydroponic vegetables will be better maintained and the taste is sweeter and crunchier. This hydroponic vegetable was developed by sowing the seeds in a planting medium called rockwoll that was moistened with water, then after the seeds germinated in a week, the vegetables were transferred to a hydroponic pipe that was filled with water and nutrients. This business was carried out at Pondok Sarai Permata Housing, Lubuk Buaya, Padang. After harvesting, the vegetables will be taken from the netpot, cleaned and then marketed. The target customers of this business are meatball swordsmen, chicken noodle traders, hospitals, mini markets, hotels, and official offices in the Padang area. In addition, this business is also marketed in hospitals because hospitals need healthy foods such as hydroponic vegetables. To maximize so that customers can know our products. We will advertise on several existing social media, such as: Whatsapp, Facebook, and Instagram, and we will also promote it directly to our target customers. In addition, our Hydroponic business also cooperates with Hydroponic business partners in West Sumatra.
