Abstract

Bat Cave is a new tourist attraction located in Indarung Village, Lubuk Kilangan District, Padang City. Changes in habitat will affect the fauna in it, especially the herpetofauna, because herpetofauna is very sensitive to environmental changes. Herpetofauna research in this area has never been done. The research was conducted in December 2022, the observation method used was the transect method combined with the VES (Visual Encounter Survey). The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of herpetofauna species in the Bat Cave area. Based on the research, nine types of herpetofauna were found, consisting of six types of amphibians and three types of reptiles. Total number of individuals obtained was 57 individuals. The most common type found was Limnonectes blythii, namely 23 individuals. In this study, one individual was found endemic to West Sumatra, namely Ichthyophis elongatus. Based on the research conducted, the diversity of herpetofauna species in the Bat Cave area is low.

Abstract

Changing the function of habitat into a tourism area will have an impact on the diversity of Anuran species. This condition is currently happening in the Talago Nagari Paninjauan Waterfall Area, Tanjung Raya District, Agam Regency, West Sumatra. This study is therefore important for revealing the diversity of Anuran species before the impact to this habitat increase in the future. This study used the VES (Visual Encounter Survey) sampling technique, and information on various localities and the microhabitat of each species was recorded. A total 48 individuals, with 12 species belonging to six families of Anuran was collected. Species diversity in the Talago Waterfall area shows a medium level of diversity, with an index of 2.2653, a medium species richness index of 2.8414. In this area, no dominant species were found with a low dominance index (0.1207). If the level of tourism activity in the Talago Waterfall area increases, it will have an effect in the future by causing habitat disruption and the presence of Anura; thus, related parties must be able to take appropriate action on tourism activities in the area.

Abstract

Rice snails are one of the pests that have the potential to cause high losses to rice plants. Rice snail mucus contains glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, glycoprotein enzymes, copper peptides, metal ions, collagen, elastin, glycolic acid, allantoin, antimicrobial peptides and vitamin C. Vitamin C or ascorbic acid is one of the vitamins needed by the body that functions as a help process in the body's metabolism. To determine vitamin C levels can be done using the UV-VIS spectrophotometry method with a wavelength of 260 nm. This study aims to determine vitamin C levels from rice snail mucus concentration of 100% and rice snail mucus concentration of 50%. This study is descriptive quantitative, analyzing vitamin C levels obtained from a spectrophotometer can be seen from the absorbance of rice snail mucus. Based on the results of research obtained from the analysis of vitamin C levels of rice snail mucus, the concentration of 100% is 2,372. While vitamin C levels in rice snail mucus concentration of 50% were obtained at 0.911. So it can be concluded that there are vitamin C levels in rice snail mucus with a concentration of 100% greater absorbance than 50% rice snail mucus.

Abstract

Indonesia is a country known for its richness in spices, one of the spices that is widely used by the people of Indonesia is coriander. Coriander is a spice that has many antioxidant compounds and biological activities that have the potential to be utilized as a source of natural antioxidants. The purpose of writing this article is to find out the potential of coriander plants as a source of natural antioxidants through literature review. The method used in writing this article is a Literature Review Article (LRA) with the Preferred Reposting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) approach. Based on the results of the reviewed articles, 11 relevant articles were obtained stating that coriander has the potential as a source of natural antioxidants. coriander extract and its antioxidant compounds have biological activities such as antiinflammatory, antidiabetic, anticholesterol, and anticancer, so they can be used as herbs in the treatment of disease.
