Abstract

Apis Dorsata Binghami is a honey bee that is often found in the forest, which is conserved by the community, but there are also honey bees that are just left alone; the community preserves these honey bees because their honey can be traded and can also be used as medicine. This study aims to determine the plants that are a feed source for Apis Dorsata Binghami in the Pinabetengan Forest, Minahasa Regency. This research was conducted in June-August 2022. The data collected came from field survey data using descriptive methods and identified plant species with values of Reactive Density (KR), Relative Frequency (FR), Relative Dominance (DR), and Index Significant Value (INP). Plant diversity as a food source for Apis Dorsata Binghami has different types of plants based on their habitus or the characteristics of the plants themselves.

Abstract

Ants are a group of social insects that belong to the order Hymenoptera and the Family Formicidae. This study aims to determine the type of ants (Formicidae) in the Mangrove Area of Tatengesan Village, Southeast Minahasa. This research occurred in Tatengesan Village, Posumaen District, Southeast Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi. The research method uses a purposive sampling method with the placement of the paths determined based on considerations taking into account the physical and biological conditions that affect the presence of ants in the field. Observation lines were made in as many as three transects, each with four observation plots. Data was collected using adhesive paper traps (Fly Sheet) and direct capture method (hand collecting) and analyzed using the Shannon-Weiner diversity index, species richness index, and species evenness index. Placement of self-adhesive paper on each transect, including lower tree stratum, highest tide limit, middle tree stratum, and upper tree stratum. Based on the results of the research on the observation transect, there were five genera, namely Anoplolepis with 25 individual ants, Camponotus with 31 individual ants, Crematogaster with 98 individual ants, Oecophylla 2168 ants, and Tetraponera 6 individual ants from 6 species of ants consisting of Anoplolepis gracilipes, Camponotus atriceps, Camponotus sp., Crematogaster scutellaris, Oecophylla smaragdina, and Tetraponera nigra. The highest number of genera obtained was Oecophylla, the highest number of species was Oecophylla smaragdina, and the number of individuals caught was 2168.

Abstract

Tamba Beach has several ecosystems, namely seagrass beds, sandy and rocky. Ecologically, seagrass beds are home to marine life, including Echinodermata. Echinoderms play an important role as an integral part of the food chain, eating organic waste. The purpose of this study was to analyze the community structure of Echinoderms at Station I (Seagrass Zone), Station II (Sandy Zone) and Station III (Coral Zone). Two methods are used in this study. The first is a qualitative description method by directly observing and quantitatively calculating the diversity index, uniformity index, dominance and abundance index formulas. The echinoderms found consisted of 4 classes, namely Holothuidea, Ophiuroidea, Echinoidea and class Asteroidea. The echinoderms found at the study site used a diversity index classified as stable. The dominance index is low because there are no dominant individuals, and the uniformity index is low. From the results obtained from the abundance in Tamba Beach, the highest value was in the Diadema setosum species with 113 individuals. Diadema setosum has the highest quantity at the three existing stations. This species can adapt to environmental changes.

Abstract

This study aims to inventory orchid species in the West Tomohon area using the accidental sampling method of exploration in a predetermined place. Orchids are a type of flowering plant that comes from the Orchidaceae family. Each type of orchid has its own characteristics. Tomohon City has abundant natural resources, including ornamental plants such as orchids. Data on orchid diversity in West Tomohon Sub-district has never been reported. Orchid inventory is an activity that records the diversity of orchid species in an area. This research is descriptive-qualitative research. The results of this study have yielded 10 species of orchids belonging to nine genera in one family. The orchid species found in the West Tomohon area consist of Arachnis sp., Arundina graminifolia, Cattleya sp., Dendrobium biggibum, Dendrobium moschatum, Epidendrum secundum, Oncidium flexuosum, Phaius tankervilleae, Phalaenopsis amabilis, and Vanda arcuata. The most common orchid found in this area is the moon orchid, Phalaenopsis amabilis.

Abstract

Gouty Arthritis is a disease caused by the accumulation of monosodium urate in the joints due to hyperuricemia, which causes painful inflammation. Syzgium polyanthum (Wight) Walp is a plant that grows in Indonesia and has been used as a traditional medicine.  It is used to treat various diseases, especially excessive production of uric acid. It is thought to contain phloretin compounds which can reduce the amount of uric acid. The purpose of this study was observed the biological activity of the natural products phloretin as an antihyperuricemia. Bioinformatic applications used in this study include the Pubchem compound database, protein target data base (Pharmmapper and Swiss Target Prediction), molecular docking software PyRx 0.8, software for 3D visualization and analysis of docking ligands and binding sites PyMOL and BIOVIA Disvovery Studo Client 2016.  The results of docking and binding site analysis showed that phloretin was able to interact with cyclin dependent kinase 2 (target protein) with a binding affinity of -6 kcal/mol more negatively than allopurinol with a binding affinity of -5.7, at different binding sites. Phloretin is a potential compound that can be used in the treatment of gouthy arthritis as an anti-inflammatory by inhibiting CDK2 activity.
