Excessive hunting and poaching for commercial purpose of Varanus salvator in Indonesia can cause a decline in this animal population. However, the scientific information of this animal especially about the biologic of organ system is rarely reported. Therefore, this case opens up opportunities for researching, which aims to study the anatomy of digestive tract of water monitor macroscopically. This research has been conducted in Biology Laboratory, University of Muhammadiyah Kupang for 5 months from March to August 2016. The digestive organ of this animal that has been preserved in alcohol 70% was obtained before from two males of water monitors. Preservation process: the animal were anesthetized, exsanguinated, and fixated in 4 paraformaldehyde by tissue perfusion method. Observations were performed to the visceral site and morphometrical of digestive tract. The resulted data was analysed descriptively and presented in tables and figures. The digestive tract of water monitor consist of esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and cloaca. The dimension of each organ is different based on its structures and functions. The esophagus of water monitor connects the mouth cavity and the stomach and also as the entrance of food to the stomach. Water monitor stomach were found in cranial part of abdomen, in left side of liver. The small intestine was longer than stomach and it is a winding muscular tube in abdomen in posterior side of liver. The large intestine consist of colon and cloaca, while cecum was not found. This channel was extend lateromedially in abdomen to cloaca between left and right kidneys. The cloaca was the end of digestive tract which excreted feces and urine. From this research, we can conclude that the digestive tract of water monitor consists of esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. It’s difficult to differentiate small intestine and large intestine because there are no cecum.

The study aimed at identifying the types of parasites that infect catfish as well as to determine the prevalence of the parasite species. A total of 30 catfish were collected using nets then examined at Parasitology Laboratory, Veterinary Medicine Faculty, Syiah Kuala University Banda Aceh. Ectoparasites examination was carried out by directly observed the outer surface of fish body and by mucus smear examination microscopically. While endoparasites examination was done by observation on the inner surface of the digestive tract. The study revealed that five types of parasites infected catfish were Dactylogyrus (43.33%), Gyrodactylus (20%), Tricodina (3.33%), Camallanus sp (3.33%), and unidentified worm (3.33%). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Key words: catfish, ectoparasite, endoparasite

Background: In endometriosis there is a decrease in endometrial receptivity. Kebar and Metformin grasses are expected to improve the condition of endometrial receptivityObjective: To find out whether there is any effect of giving Kebar grass extract and metformin on endometrial receptivity Methods: The study was designed by using a simple experimental randomization. It was conducted in Obstetrics Gynecology Department - Faculty of Medicine Diponegoro University and Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Airlangga University. Sample calculation was employed. The study was done within five groups including control group with normal mice, group of endometriosis mouse models given placebo, group of endometriosis mouse models given Kebar grass extract, group of endometriosis mouse models given metformin, and group of endometriosis mouse models given the combination of Kebar grass – metformin extract. The examination materials of ανβ3 integrin and Leukemia Inhibitory Factors were taken from the uteri of the mice and measured by the Rammele Scale Index (Immuno Reactive Score), while the Superoxide Dismutase examination using ELISA was derived from mice serum. These examinations were performed by two veterinariansResults: The expression of ανβ3 integrin was significantly higher in the group of mouse models given Kebar grass extract as well as the combination of Kebar and metformin grass extracts (p <0.05) rather than in the group of endometriosis mouse models with no treatment, whereas LIF expression was significantly higher in the group given Kebar grass extract, metformin and combination of both extracts (p <0.05). Serum SOD levels remained the same.Conclusion: The expressions of ανβ3 Integrin and LIF are higher due to the provision of Kebar grass extract as well as the combination of Kebar grass and metformin extracts

Aim: The aim of the study was to identify the distribution pattern and frequency of endocrine cell types in the digestive tract of Varanus salvator. Materials and Methods: The presence of endocrine cells (glucagon, somatostatin, and serotonin) in the digestive tract (esophagus, stomach, and intestine) was detected using the avidin-biotin complex (ABC) method. Results: Three types of endocrine cells immunoreactive to antisera glucagon, serotonin, and somatostatin were found in the caudal portion of the small and large intestines but were not observed in the esophagus, stomach, and caput and medial sections of the small intestine. Endocrine cells distributed in the digestive tract of V. salvator vary in color intensity, from weak to sharp, in response to the primer antibody. Conclusion: Endocrine cells in the digestive tract that is immunoreactive to glucagon, somatostatin, and serotonin are those found in the caudal portion of the small and large intestines. They are varied in distribution pattern, frequency, and color intensity.
