Abstract

Artemisia annua is a herbaceous plant that produces artemisinin as a malaria drug, haemorrhoids therapy, aromatherapy, antiviral, anticancer and antibacterial. Gloriosa superba is a plant that contains high colchicine compounds, especially on the seeds. Gloriosa superba extracts of tubers, stems, seeds, and leaves were used as biomutagen for many plants. Colchicine contains of these plants as antimitotic have been studied and proven by the mitotic index plants. Water extracts of Gloriosa superba seeds was used as a mutagen for Artemisia annua. The aim of this study was to determine the size and density of Artemisia annua stomata soaked in water extract of Gloriosa superba seeds as a mutagen. Extraction of Gloriosa superba seeds obtained naturally on Krakal Beach, Gunung Kidul by using a maceration method with water solvent (1:1). Artemisia annua sprouts were obtained from B2P2TOOT Tawangmangu. Variables treatment on sprouts using water extract concentration of Gloriosa superba seeds and soaking time of Artemisia annua sprouts. Measurements of stomatal length, width and density were conducted in epidermis of Artemisia annua leaf. Observation and measurements of the stomata were conducted by using a light microscope. The results showed that the length and width of stomata were 0.025 mm and 0.017 mm respectively. The stomatal density of the control leaf (174.69 amount/mm2) was lower than the other treated plants. Stomatal size and density has increased with the increasing concentration extracts on treated plants. Water extracts of Gloriosa superba seeds proved the effects on stomatal size and density of treated plants.

Abstract

Karika is an endemic plant of Dieng Plateau. The leaf of Karika has been studied to have antibacterial activity against bacteria that cause diarrhea, while the peels are removed or used as a mixture of animal feed. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of Karika peels against bacteria that cause poisoning, i.e Shigella flexneri, and Escherichia coli. The sample fractionated to obtain the fraction of n-hexane and ethyl acetate. The fractions were tested for their antibacterial activity against Shigella flexneri and Escherichia coli by the cup-plate method. The results showed that the ethyl acetate fraction (ethyl acetate 50%) had the highest inhibition on Shigella flexneri and Escherichia coli compared with another concentration. Based on the study can be concluded that the peels of Karikahas antibacterial activity against Shigella flexneri and Escherichia coli.

Abstract

Alpha-glycosidase inhibitors can delay the hydrolysis of oligosaccharide and disaccharide into glucose, which can prevent or treat hyperglycemia in diabetes mellitus. The rind and flesh of Salak Pondoh fruit are known to produce ?-glycosidase inhibitor compound. Endophytic bacteria that live in plant tissues potentially produce compounds such as in host plants. Exploration of endophytic bacteria from the rind and flesh of Salak Pondoh is one of the efforts to obtain isolates of bacteria producing ?-glycosidase inhibitors. The objective of this study is to isolate and identify endophytic bacteria producing inhibitor ?-glycosidase from rind and flesh of Salak Pondoh, and to know the activity of its ?-glycosidase inhibitor. Isolation of endophytic bacteria was done by inoculating surface-sterilized plant samples on Nutrient Agar (NA) medium. The inhibitory activity towards ?- glycosidase analysis was performed using the spectrophotometric method (? = 415 nm), with p-nitro phenyl ?-D-glucopyranoside as the substrate. Identification of the bacteria was performed based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence.  The sequencing was done at 1st Base Singapore and the obtained sequences were identified using the BLAST Nucleotide device on the NCBI website. In total, 6 bacterial isolates were obtained. The inhibitory activity ranged from 6.14-62.95% and the highest was generated by Kt-E isolates. The bacteria obtained were isolated Dt- A and Dt-B that represent genus Xanthomonas, Kt-E from genus Paenibacillus, Kt-I from genus Bacillus, Dm-A1 and Dm-A2 from family Enterobacteriaceae. The results confirm the potential of the endophyte bacteria of Salak Pondoh to be an alternative source of hyperglycemia medication.

Abstract

Karakterisasi Biokimia Enzim Fitase Rekombinan (phyK) dari Klebsiella sp. ASR1 Yang Dienkapsulasi Dengan AlginatEnzim fitase melepas molekul fosfor pada atom C dari benzena Inositol fitat. Tetapi fitase memiliki kelemahan tidak mampu bertahan terhadap kondisi ekstrim dalam lambung nonruminansia. Solusi dalam penelitian ini yaitu fitase dienkapsulasi menggunakan alginat. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkarakterisasi fitase setelah dienkapsulasi menggunakan alginate. Hasil penelitian ini yaitu fitase yang dienkapsulasi memiliki aktivitas tertinggi pada pH 6,0, sedangkan fitase tanpa enkapsulasi pada pH 5,0. Suhu optimum untuk aktivitas tertinggi fitase yang dienkapsulasi yaitu 70ºC, sedangkan fitase tanpa enkapsulasi 37ºC. Untuk perlakuan penambahan ion logam, aktivitas tertinggi fitase yang dienkapsulasi terjadi dengan penambahan 0,1 mM Fe2+ dan 1,0 mM Ca2+, sedangkan fitase tanpa enkapsulasi dengan penambahan 0,1 mM Fe2+. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, fitase yang dienkapsulasi memiliki keunggulan lebih banyak dibandingkan dengan fitase tanpa enkapsulasi, karena mampu bertahan pada pH dan suhu tinggi, dan beberapa efek ion logam.Kata Kunci: alginat, asam fitat, enkapsulasi, fitase, fitase rekombinanABSTRACTPhytase enzymes release phosphorus molecules on the C atom from benzene inositol phytate. But phytase has the disadvantage of being unable to withstand extreme conditions in the non-ruminant stomach. The solution in this research was phytase encapsulated using alginate. This study aims to characterize phytase after being encapsulated using alginate. The results of this study were the encapsulated phytase had the highest activity at pH 6.0, while the unencapsulated phytase at pH 5.0. The optimum temperature for the highest activity of the encapsulated phytase was 70ºC, while the unencapsulated phytase 37ºC. For treatment of metal ion addition, the highest activity of the encapsulated phytase occurred with the addition of 0.1 mM Fe2+ and 1.0 mM Ca2+, while the unencapsulated phytase with the addition of 0.1 mM Fe2+. Based on the results of this study, the encapsulated phytase had more advantages compared to the unencapsulated phytase, as the former withstand high pH and temperature, and some metal ion effects.

Abstract

An English textbook has an important role in teaching and learning process, to support the learning process in the classroom. The purpose of this study is to identify and analyze the English for Specific Purposes of Nursing bachelor program and diploma program. This study was conducted by using qualitative approach and analyses in descriptive method. The samples were 92 respondents and was divided from 62 students of 3rd grade of nursing bachelor program and 30 students of 3rd from diploma of nursing of STIKES Pemkab Jombang who are getting the English subject in this semester and the sampling technique used total sampling. The instrument of this study used questionnaire and the interview guideline in form of closed – ended question. The data analysis was descriptive analysis in the form of number. The result of this study revealed that the English for Nursing Textbook was well designed and encouraged the students’ ability to improve the skills in Nursing English language. English subject help the students to communicate in English to support their career in field of nursing Education. Although this english textbook is good enough, there are some evaluations, such as provided the listening comprehension for listening activity, so the lecturers have to open a youtube to improve the students’ ability in listening and speaking.
