Abstract

The purpose of the research was to obtain the superior Trichoderma that had ability to colonize root with the resultbeing effective to supress Fusarium wilt desease and promote banana seedling growth. This experiment consistedof 2 factors and 4 replications. The first factor was Trichoderma spp. namely : A. Trichoderma koningii strain S6sh(TK-S6sh), B Trichoderma viride strain T1sk (TV-T1sk) and Trichoderma harzianum strain S10sh (TH-S10sh). Thesecond factor was the kind of banana namely a.Cavendis, b. Barangan and c. Kepok. The observation werecolonization ability, Fusarium wilt desease development and the banana seedling growth. The result showed thatTV-T1sk was the best spesies to colonize all banana seedling root. The highest colonization in Barangan bananaseedling root reached 80%. Trichoderma colonization in banana seedling root could suppress Fusarium wilt diseasedevelopment and increase banana seedling weight. Higher ability of Trichoderma to colonize banana seedling rootcaused lower disease incidence of Fusarium wilt and greater biomass of banana seedling. Interaction betweenTV-T1Sk and Barangan banana was the best in colonization, so they were effective to suppress Fusarium wiltdesease and increase banana seedling biomass.

Abstract

The effect of addition cytokinins and modification of sucrose concentration on growth and alkaloid canthinoneproduction in cell suspension cultures of Eurycoma longifilia Jack were studied. The additions of cytokines, BAand kinetin, show effect on the production of biomass and alkaloid in cell suspension of E. longifilia Jack. Theoptimum totals of two-alkaloids were obtained on addition 4.44 μM BAP and without kinetin, respectively. Theaddition of 4.44 μM BA (6-benzyladenine) into TAM medium stimulated increased total of 9-hydroxycanthine-6-one,but decreased total of 9-methoxycanthin-6-one. While the addition of 2.32 - 9.29 μM kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine)into TAM medium decreased total of two alkaloids (from 0.582 mg to 0.461 - 0.257 mg per 25 ml medium). Whensucrose concentration in TAM medium was increased from 3% to 5%, production of biomass would increase from0.374 g to 0.585 g dry weight per 25 ml medium. While total of two-alkaloids increase from 0.328 mg to 0.441 mgper 25 ml medium when concentration of sucrose in TAM medium was increased from 3% to 4% sucrose.

Abstract

Bekasam is a traditional fermented fish from Indonesia. It is made from fish  in which  the gills and  gut  had been  discarded,  washed,  and  mixed with salt, after two days, it was covered  with  rice  and  salt,  and then  fermented  for  5-7 days  at room  temperature.  Bekasam  is perceived to have antihypertensive activity, which is though to be the activity of bioactive peptides, the product of protein degradation  during  the bekasam fermentation. The research was aim to isolate the indigenous lactic  acid  bacteria  that  produce strong  proteolytic  capabilities.  The lactic  acid bacteria were collected from 3  kinds of bekasam (tilapia, milkfish, and tuna bekasam). Isolation  of the lactic acid bacteria was done         on agar medium containing MRS + CaCO3, and  the screening of the proteolytic bacteria  was done by growing the isolated  culture on  skim agar.   The colonies  that produce clear zone  were identified  as proteolytic  lactic acid  bacteria. Some of 180  isolated strains of acid  producing bacteria   that produce clear zone on MRS agar were found 150 strains of  lactic acid  bacteria, and  84  strains  showed  their  proteolytic activity.  The later  were identified morphologically and biochemical as Lactobacillus, Pediococcus and Leuconostoc genera.  Selection  was further conducted based on the height of the proteolytic and homofermentative fermentation activities. Upon species identification using API CH 50 kit,  the  selected strains belong to species of Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus pentosus, and Pediococcus pentosaseus.

Abstract

The lidar remote sensing is the one important application to observe the aerosol and cloud of the atmosphere. Themicropulse lidar (MPL) return signals were studied in the tropical area. In this investigation, the single scatteringis analyzed by the physical properties of aerosol and cloud. The signal simulation of the single scattering predictsthe maximum optical thickness by saturation. It was observed that saturation optical thickness from the lidarsignal depends on the variation of extinction coefficient. This simulation is compared by the optical thicknessestimation from the lidar data. The MPL data (at wavelength of 523 nm) was determined, and the sky radiometer (atwavelength 500 nm) was used as reference data. The maximum optical thickness of lidar was 2.6 at night time,and the maximum optical depth of lidar and sky radiometer data on the same day were 2.25 and 1.7, respectively.

Abstract

Omega-3 fatty acid is the essential fatty acid and important for human health. Omega-3 fatty acid is also really neededby pregnant and lactating mothers and also children to prevent the malnutrition. Omega-3 fatty acid is also reallyneeded by pregnant and lactating mothers, and children to prevent the malnutrition. The omega-3 fatty acid is commonlyfound in some fish like salmon, tuna, hering, and mackarel. However, those fish are expensive, so alternativesources relatively cheaper fish. One of fish that is low in price and high in production in Nusa Tenggara Barat is Sunglir(Elagatis bipinnulata ). The purpose of this research was to determine free fatty acids content, type of omega-3 fattyacids, and their compositions in head fish oil. Head of sunglir fish was used as a sample because the head was usuallynot consumed. Sunglir fish was obtained from the Ampenan beach (NTB) with a size of 20–30 cm. The extraction methodused in this study was soxhletation with n-hexane solvent and analyzed with Gas Chromatografi (GC), acid ethyl estersfrom the esterification enzymatic of fish oil. Result revealed that the fish oil contained 84% free fatty acid and 0.85%linolenic acid (ALA), 2.80% eicosatrienoic acid (ETA), 0.73% eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 2.41% docosahexaenoicacid (DHA). Saponification and iodine number of head fish oil is 248.24 mg KOH/g oil and 227.16 g Iod/100 g oil.

Abstract

The purpose of the reasearch is to determine of antifungal activity from chitinase from Streptomyces RKt5 to inhibite growth of Fusariumoxysporum. The chitinase of Streptomyces RKt5 produced in liquid chitin medium with optimum conditions (inoculum concentration, pHand incubation time) and then partially purified with ammonium sulphate. The enzyme products were tested the antifungal activity againstF.oxysporum. The results showed that mycelial growth of F.oxysporum can be inhibited by Streptomyces RKt 5 in dual culture test. Thepartial purified chitinase enzyme couldn’t inhibit the fungal growth. But if the mycellium fragmented, the enzyme could degrade the fungalcell wall in incubation time. The frequency of fungal cell wall lysis and levels of N-acetylglucosamine released that have been increasingalong with the length of incubation time.

Abstract

A research on red fruit (Pandanus conoideus Lam.) has been conducted to determine its hepatoprotective effect.This research was concern on three group of treatments, a blank treatment (water), a standard drug (curcuminecontaining) and red fruit extract treatment group. The liver destruction was induced by CCl 4. The hepatoprotectiveeffect was illustrated by SGOT – SGPT level of activity and percentage of cell destruction obtained from histopatogolicanalysis. Compared to the blank group, which had level of SGOT-SGPT activity as 38224,40  2,92 U/L and SGPT of24128,00  5,22 U/L, the red fruit treatment group showed a lower SGOT – SGPT activity (20112,4  2,68 U/L and18923,0  2,77 U/L, respectively); while the standard drug treatment group showed level of SGOT and SGPT activityas 29732,4  1,85 U/L and 20640,8  3,78 U/L, respectively. The histopatologic evaluation also illustrated similaritythat the red fruit treatment group occupied the lowest percentage of hepatocyte destruction shown as percentageof cell degeneration and cell necrosis of 28,3% and 31,7%, respectively. The standard drug treatment showed78,3% of destruction based on degenerative cell destruction and 88,3% based on cell necrosis. Almost 100% of celldestruction was shown in the blank group. Based on these result, the red fruit extract possessed a liver cellprotection activity against cell destruction caused by CCl4 exposure and even more active than a standard drug.

Abstract

Aquatic plant is an important component of a constructed wetland system for treating acid mine drainage (AMD).This study was conducted to investigate the remediation effects of planting three aquatic plants species on AMDquality in simulated wetland systems. Simulated wetland systems were constructed using 10-L plastic containersas growth media comprising mixed-organic substrates and aquatic plant species as planting treatments. Thetreatments involved individual plantings with Fimbristilys hispidula (Vahl) Konth, Mariscus compactus (Retz) Druce,and Typha angustifolia L., and mixed-planting with a combined three-plant species. As the control was the unplantedmedia. The plants were continuously flooded with very acidic AMD collected from a mine pit in PT TambangBatubara Bukit Asam, South Sumatra. During the experiment, the acidity (pH), oxidation reduction potential (Eh),and electrical conductivity (EC) of the flooding AMD were measured after 24 hours of the flooding, and thenbiweekly until the plants entered their reproductive stage. To estimate Fe removed by plants, AMD samples weretaken from both planted and unplanted systems for total dissolved Fe analyses. The data revealed some remediationeffects of planting aquatic plants on AMD in the wetland treatment systems. The presence of plants in the wetlandsystem appeared to induce oxygen diffusion to surrounding roots, which might result in Fe precipitation on rootsurface. Although no differences among planting treatments, Fe removals by plants highly correlated (R2=0.92)with the production of plant biomass.
