 Heavy metal pollution can disturb aquatic ecosystems and indicator of water quality. This study aims to determine the concentration of heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Cd, Zn) in water and sediments. This study was conducted in the waters of Serangan, South Denpasar District, Bali in June-August 2019. The research with each location taking 8 points of water and sediment sampling and measuring the quality of its waters. Water samples taken at the surface of the water as much as 330 ml and sediment samples taken as much as 500 grams. The method used is wet ashing preparation and analyzed by means of AAS (Atomic Absorbsion Spektrophotometri). The results of the average analysis of heavy metal concentrations in water are Pb 0 mg / L, Cd 0.438 mg / L, Cu 0 mg./L, and Zn 0.284 mg / L. The results of the analysis are compared with the standard quality value of sea water that the heavy metals Cd and Zn have exceeded the threshold. While the average concentration of heavy metals in sediments are Pb 17.444 mg / kg, Cd 18.093 mg / kg, Cu 113.981 mg / kg, and Zn 53.505 mg / kg. The concentration of Cd and Cu heavy metals exceeds the limits set by the ANZECC / ARMCANZ quality guidelines and the Canadian Council of Ministers of the Environment.

Carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) is one of the oldest and most commercially cultivated freshwater fish in the World. However, there are still many undetermined phylogenetic relationships and the origins of common goldfish lineages, which are an obstacle to the conservation and genetic reproduction of this species. In the process of phylogenetic analysis, researchers used mitochondrial genomes where the genomic DNA was obtained from homozygous double haploid clonal lines from domesticated Songpu strains, and the total genomic DNA was extracted and sequenced using next-generation sequencing technology. Complete mitochondrial genome sequencing of 11 individuals representing East Asia and Europe and phylogenetic analysis was performed. The purpose of this study is to provide information about the phenology of Cyprinus carpio fish, which is expected to be the basis for increasing understanding to determine the kinship relationship between Cyprinus carpio in East Asia and Europe. The results showed that the relationship between Cyprinus carpio color, Cyprinus carpio songpu mirror carp, Cyprinus carpio carpio, and Cyprinus carpio wuyuanensis was very close, this can be seen from the bootstrap value of 100%. Meanwhile, with Cyprinus carpio haematopterus has a bootstrap value of 70%. Meanwhile, with Cyprinus xingguonensis it has a bootstrap value of 66%. Furthermore, it can also be said that the Songpu mirror goldfish is closely related to C. carpio carpio which is also a member of the genus Cyprinu. The genus Cyprinu has a close relationship with the genus Catla. In the phylogenetic tree, this species of fish forms a very coherent group, supported by a high bootstrap value of 100% and an average genetic distance of 0.02.  Key words: Mitochondrial genome, Phylogenetics, general Cyprinus carpio

Kesambi (Schleichera oleosa) is a plant belonging to the Sapindaceae familia. This study aims to determine the secondary metabolite compounds found in kesambi leaves through histochemical analysis and derivatives of active compounds in silico. Descriptive experimental research method was conducted in January using samples of kesambi plants that grow on the island of Madura. Histochemical analysis was carried out by preparing fresh leaves through lower leaf incisions with secondary metabolite detection reagents (CuSO4, FeCl3, Wagner, Sudan III, AlCl3 & FeCl3+NaCO3) then microscopic color changes were observed. In silico testing aims to determine the interaction of active compounds with ER? as a target for ER + breast cancer therapy through molecular docking. Supporting software used is KNApSAcK, Pubchem, Pass Online, PDB ID, PyRx, PyMol and Chimera 1.14. The results showed that through histochemical analysis six secondary metabolite compounds were identified, namely terpenoids, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, lipophils and phenols. While in silico analysis, the active compound is scopoletin which is derived from phenol, beta-sitosterol, betulin, betulinic acid, lupeol, lupeol acetate, schleicheol 1&2, schleicherastatin 1-7 which are derivatives of terpenoids. Based on the results of molecular docking, there are interactions of active compounds with 3ERT protein, the compounds that provide the most effective results as candidates for breast cancer drugs are lupeol acetate with a value of Root Mean Square Deviation (RMSD) lb 1,588 Å and ub 2,219 Å . Lupeol acetate compound is predicted to have activity as an Er? inhibitor against ER+ breast cancer. Keywords: Kesambi (Schleichera oleosa), histochemistry, molecular docking and ER?.

The success of rabies vaccination is characterized by the growth of seropositive antibody titers (?0.5 IU) after vaccination. One of the tests conducted to monitor antibody growth is ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay). This study aimed to determine the effect of different vaccine doses on the growth of rabies antibodies in kintamani dogs. The study was conducted using an experimental method with a study design using 2 variables, namely the difference in vaccine doses (0.5 and 0.75 cc) and the times of blood collection (1, 2 and 3 months after vaccination). Each vaccine dose was given to three kintamani dogs. Antibodies were measured using ELISA and data were analyzed with paired sample t-test between the treatment dose of 0.75 cc and 0.5 cc at months 1.2 and 3 after vaccination. The results showed that at first month the antibody titer were 2,12 IU at a dose of 0.75 cc and 3.72 IU at a dose of 0.5 cc. At second months, antibody titers were 7.74 IU (0.75 cc dose) and 10.85 IU (0.5 cc dose), while at third month, antibody titers were 5.73 IU (0.75 cc) and 9.00 IU (0.5 cc). Vaccine doses administered produce antibody titer levels that did not differ significantly between 0.75 cc and 0.5 cc doses.   Keyword: Antibody, ELISA, Kintamani Dog, Rabies

Rosella tea is a ingredient that can be used for making scrubs because of its antioxidant content, but yet limited in cosmetic science. This research was aimed to find out the amount value of vitamin C and antioxidant activity in scrub that contains Rosella tea (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) with variation of rice flour concentrations. This research was conducted at Analitic Laboratory, Faculty of Agricultural Technology and Soil Mechanical Laboratory, Faculty of Engineering, Udayana University from May until August 2018. The experiment was conducted using completely randomized design with seven treatments. Parameters observed were the amount values of vitamin C, antioxidant activities and organoleptic consists texture, colour, aroma and impression of Rosella scrub. The results of this results is the highest vitamin C and antioxidant content were found in rosella scrub with the percentage of 10% white rice flour and 80% red rice flour. The difference in body scrub treatment has a significant effect on proband judgments seen from the texture, color and aroma, while the difference in lulur treatment has no significant effect on proband judgments seen from the impression.   Keyword: scrub, Rosella, vitamin C, antioxidant, organoleptic
