Abstract

Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light provides high effectiveness in inhibiting germs, bacteria and the Sars-Cov 2 virus that causes Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19). However, due to the depletion of the ozone layer which acts to ward off short wave radiation, there is an increase of UV light radiation amount that reaches the earth's surface. As a result, human skin is exposed to UV radiation which can cause premature skin aging and even skin cancer. Researchers claim that brown algae contain anti-UV compounds that can absorb UV radiation. Therefore, it has been developed a skin protection cream based on brown algae seaweed that can protect human skin from exposure to UV radiation. This article reports on the introduction and training of how to produce anti-UV sunscreen for seaweed farmers who faces high intensity sun exposure on a daily basis. Participants were 20 person (wives and children of the farmers). In this training, video tutorial of making cream was played following with demonstration of making cream by the participants. After the training, it is hoped that the farmers wives and children will be able to produce this anti-UV sunscreen that was not for self-used to protection against UV radiation exposure, but could also for sale to increase the income of coastal communities during the COVID-19 pandemic. BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: Paparan sinar ultraviolet (UV) memberikan efektivitas yang tinggi dalam penghambatan kuman, bakteri hingga virus Sars-Cov 2 penyebab Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19). Namun karena menipisnya lapisan ozon yang berperan menangkal radiasi gelombang pendek, maka radiasi akibat sinar UV sampai ke permukaan bumi. Akibatnya, kulit manusia terpapar radiasi UV yang dapat menyebabkan penuaan kulit secara dini dan bahkan kanker kulit. Para peneliti menyatakan bahwa algae coklat mengandung senyawa anti-UV yang dapat menyerap radiasi ultra violet. Karena itu, telah dikembangkan krim pelindung kulit berbasis rumput laut alga coklat yang dapat melindungi kulit manusia dari paparan radiasi UV. Artikel ini melaporkan pengenalan dan pelatihan cara pembuatan krim anti-UV kepada pembudidaya rumput laut yang sehari-hari harus berhadapan dengan terpaan matahari berintensitas tinggi. Hadir sejumlah 20 orang (para istri dan anak-anak pembudi daya). Dalam pelatihan ini diputarkan video tutorial membuat krim yang kemudian diikuti dengan demonstrasi membuat krim.  Setelah pelatihan, diharapkan para istri dan anak pembudidaya dapat memproduksi krim anti-UV yang tidak saja dapat digunakan sendiri sebagai perlindung terhadap paparan radiasi UV, melainkan juga dapat dijual untuk meningkatkan pendapatan masyarakat pesisir pada masa pandemi COVID-19.

Abstract

An exessive use of inorganic fertilizers in agriculture cultivation system causes many disadventages, such as increase cost production, reduce farmer’s income and soil fertility, and harm our environment. Therefore, it is needed to find out raw materials for development of organic biostimulant and biofertilizer inducing essential element absorption, growth and yield of plants, which are adaptive to our environment as well. Previous researchres reported that seaweed contained plant growth hormones and essential elements in liquid and solid extracts respectively. This article reports effect of solid and liquid extracts of Sargassum cristafolium on growth and yield of rice plants. The extracts were extracted according to modified procedure.. Solid extract (350 gr) of Sargassum cristafolium was mixed with soil (6650 gr) to become 7 kg soil media. Moreover, liquid extract (10%) of Sargassum cristafolium was sprayed to rice plants once a week during vegetative growth. The results shown that addition of 350 gr of solid extract to soil media increased growth (plant high, tiller number, shoot dry weight and root dry weight) and yield (penicle number and grain weight per plants) significantly compared with those of plants which were not supplied with solid extract. However, spraying liquid extract of Sargassum cristafolium did not affet significantly growth and yield of rice plants, even small change happen in growth and yield parameters of the rice plants supplied with solid extract. This indicates that solid extract is a potential source for development of biofertilizer which is adaptive to our environment to support sustainable agriculture system.

Abstract

Renggak (Amomum dealbatum Roxb.) is a species from the genus Amomum widely spread in Lombok. Traditionally, Amomum dealbatum Roxb. (renggak) is an antiseptic to treat rheumatism and arthritis. However, there was limited report of its phytochemical contents and biological activity of Amomum dealbatum Roxb. This study is preliminary research that aims to determine the phytochemical content of Amomum dealbatum Roxb. leaf decoction and its ethanolic extract. For this study, we used two different extraction methods. The fully powdered plant used for the successive extraction in the cold process for maceration methods was 800 g, and ethanols were used as solvents. We used a traditional receipt that utilized three fresh leaves in the decoction methods with 4,5 L of water as solvents. Phytochemical screening was carried out qualitatively by using the tube method with specific reagents for each compound. Important phytochemicals that were screened are flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, steroids, and triterpenoids. Phytochemical screening from plant extract and decoction revealed the presence of flavonoids, alkaloids, and tannins. Triterpenoid was only detected on the extract, and none of the extract and decoction have saponins and steroids. Our finding provides information about secondary metabolites that present in Amomum dealbatum Roxb. These phytochemical findings are essential and might be useful as quality parameters and to predicts its biological activities.

Abstract

Yayasan Generasi Muslim Cendekia (Yayasan GMC) terletak di desa Puyung, Lombok Tengah, Indonesia, dan telah memiliki fasilitas TOGA, namun selama ini tumbuh-tumbuhan obat yang terdapat di fasilitas tersebut tidak dimanfaatkan secara maksimal. Minimnya pengetahuan murid yayasan GMC yang menjadi alasan terjadinya hal tersebut. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan suatu program sosialisasi untuk mengedukasi murid di yayasan tersebut terkait hal ini. Selain itu, program sosialisasi juga melibatkan praktek pembuatan sediaan sederhana dengan pemanfaatan tanaman obat, yaitu pembuatan sabun batang alami dengan menggunakan aloe vera sebagai bahan utamanya. Sabun ini sangat bermanfaat terutama di masa pandemi COVID-19.Hasil evaluasi kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa kegiatan sosialisasi ini telah berjalan dengan baik, ditunjukkan dengan adanya peningkatan nilai posttest peserta yang signifikan dibandingkan dengan nilai pretest peserta. Melalui kegiatan ini, peserta mendapatkan pengetahuan terkait pemanfaatan TOGA maupun cara pembuatan sabun bantang alami (sabun aloe vera). Peserta menunjukkan antusias yang tinggi pada saat praktek maupun diskusi. Diharapkan ke depannya sosialisasi seperti ini dapat terus berlanjut, sehingga dapat terus meningkatkan kreatifitas murid-murid yayasan GMC dalam pemanfaatan TOGA, yang tidak hanya bermanfaat untuk kesehatan tetapi juga dapat berpotensi meningkatkan taraf ekonomi warga desa tersebut.

Abstract

Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a new strain of coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2, which was identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The rapid transmission of COVID-19 from human to human forced researchers to find a potent drug by setting aside the time-consuming traditional method in drug development. The molecular docking approach is one a reliable method to screening compound from chemical drug or by finding a compound from Indonesian herbal plants. The present study aimed to assess the potency of compounds from five medicinal plants as potential inhibitors of PLpro and 3CLpro from SARS-CoV-2 using molecular study. The molecular docking was performed using Protein-Ligand Ant System (PLANTS) to analyze the potential compounds by the docking score. Remdesivir triphosphate was used as a standard for the comparison of the test compounds. The docking score obtained from the docking of PLpro with native ligand, remdesivir triphosphate, curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin, luteolin, apigenin, quercetin, kaempferol, formononetin-7-O-glucuronide, andrographolide, and neoandrographolide were -111.441, -103.827, -103.609, -102.363, -100.27, -79.6655, -78.6901, -80.9337, -79.4686, -82.1124, -79.1789, and -97.2452, respectively. Meanwhile, docking score with 3CLpro for the same ligand were -64.0074, -86.1811, -81.428, -87.1625, -78.2899, -73.4345, -70.3368, -71.5539, -68.4321, -72.0154, -75.9777, and -93.7746. The docking score data suggest that curcumin was the most potential as a PLpro inhibitor, while neoandrographolide was the best as a 3CLpro inhibitor.

Abstract

Wounds are structural and functional disruptions of the skin that occur as a result of an injury. Wound healing is a complex tissue repair or remodelling process in response to the injury. The most common factor that causes wounds not properly heal is infection. An infection develops when microorganisms enter the body, multiply, and trigger an immune reaction in the body. This study aims to determine the activity of Jatropha multifida L., Stachytarpheta jamaicensis (L.) Vahl, Centella asiatica (L.) Urb., Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd. ex Klotzsch, and Angelica keiskei (miq.) Koidz has long been used to treat and manage wounds in East Lombok. The plants were dried and macerated with methanol; excessed solvent was evaporated. Disc diffusions were used to determine the antibacterial activity of the plant extracts. All extracts were tested against Staphylococcus epidermidis, a common cause of wound infection. Statistically, the activity of Jatropha multifida (5;10 mg/mL), Stachytarpheta jamaicensis (10 mg/mL), Centella asiatica (10 mg/mL), Euphorbia pulcherrima (M) (5, 10 mg/mL), and Angelica keiskei (2,5; 5; 10 mg/mL) extracts were comparable with positive control. However, Angelica keiskei has a wider inhibition zone than other extracts. This discovery could be served as a basis for using plants to aid wound healing, especially to combat the interference bacteria. However, further research is needed to discover the active phytochemicals involved in the antibacterial and wound healing process.
