Effects of Gedi Leaves (Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik) as a Herbal Plant Rich in Mucilages on Blood Lipid Profiles and Carcass Quality of Broiler Chickens as Functional Food
The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of gedi leaves (Abelmoschus manihot (L.) Medik) on blood lipid profiles and carcass quality of broilers. A hundred chickens were allocated to four diet treatments, with 5 replications. The diets were basal diet (R0), 5% GLM (R1), 10% GLM (R2), and 15% GLM (R3). Treatments had no significant effect on total blood cholesterol, triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol, significantly effect on reducing carcass weight and abdominal fat, but recorded no significantly effect on carcass percentage. It can be concluded that adding gedi leaves to broiler diets might...

Measuring Perceived Service Quality of Fast Food Restaurant in Islamic Country: A Conceptual Framework
Publication date: 2015 Source:Procedia Food Science, Volume 3 Author(s): Sik Sumaedi , Medi Yarmen Service quality is a critical success factor of fast food restaurant. Fast food restaurant managers need to measure and improve the service quality of their restaurant continuously. Given this, the knowledge on measurement of service quality of fast food restaurant is needed. Service quality is an abstract and elusive concept. Furthermore, the way of customer on perceiving the quality of service depends on the type of service and the context where the service is provided. Thus, this paper aims to propose a service quali...

The Potency of Endophytic Fungal Isolates Collected from Local Aromatic Rice as Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) Producer
This study aims to obtain endophytic fungal isolates from local aromatic rice and screening of their ability to produce the IAA hormone as a plant growth promoter. Totally 16 endophytic fungal isolates were isolated from aromatic rice tissue of Pulu Mandoti. Ten isolates obtained from stem, three isolates from the root and three isolates from leaf tissue. The ability of endophytic fungal isolates in producing hormones IAA varied from 0.635 to 2.651 mgl-1. Similarly, the ability to dissolve phosphate also varied from 0.005 – 3.719 mgl-1, and there is only 1 isolates that caused abnormal growth in rice seedlings. (Source: ...
