Penelitian tersebut memiliki tujuan untuk mengetahui Penggunaan Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum Terhadap Organ Pencernaan Ayam Kampung Super. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Kebun Percobaan Universitas Musi Rawas Kota Lubuklinggau dari bulan Maret sampai dengan Mei 2020. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Eksperimental dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) yang disusun secara non faktorial, terdiri dari 6 taraf perlakuan dengan 4 kali ulangan sehingga diperoleh 24 unit percobaan, setiap unit percobaan (tiap kandang) diisi 3 ekor ayam kampung super. Sehingga pada penelitian ini diperlukan 72 ekor ayam kampung super (DOC). Adapun perlakuan dalam penelitian ini yaitu : 1) P0 = 100% pakan tanpa Azolla, 2) P1 = 20/o Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum, 3) P2 = 40/o Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum, 4) P3 = 6% Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum, 5) P4 = 8% Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum, 6) P5 = 10% Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum. Dari hasil analisis data secara statistik diketahui bahwa Pengunaan Tepung Azolla microphylla dalam Ransum terhadap Organ Pencernaan Ayam Kampung Super memberikan pengaruh tidak nyata.

AbstractThe present investigation was carried out to decipher the interplay between paraquat (PQ) and exogenously applied nitric oxide (NO) in Azolla microphylla. The addition of PQ (8 μM) increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), ascorbate peroxidase (APX) by 1.7, 2.7, 3.9 and 1.9 folds respectively than that control in the fronds of Azolla. The amount of H2O2 was also enhanced by 2.7 times in the PQ treated plants than that of control. The supplementation of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) from 8–100 μM along with PQ, suppressed the activities of antioxidative enzymes and the amount of H2O2 compared to PQ alone. The drop in the activity of antioxidative enzymes — SOD, GPX, CAT and APX was highest (39.9%, 48.4%, 41.6% and 41.3% respectively) on the supplementation of 100 μM SNP with PQ treated fronds compared to PQ alone. The addition of NO scavengers along with NO donor in PQ treated fronds neutralized the effect of exogenously supplied NO. This indicates that NO can effectively protect Azolla against PQ toxicity by quenching reactive oxygen species. However, 200 μM of SNP reversed the protective effect of lower concentration of NO donor against herbicide toxicity. Our study clearly suggests that (i) SNP released NO can work both as cytoprotective and cytotoxic in concentration dependent manner and (ii) involvement of NO in protecting Azolla against PQ toxicity.
