Abstract

Giant swamp taro (GST/Cyrtosperma merkusii), a local North Sulawesi coastal plant, is underutilized but has high po-tential for cultivation as a paludiculture plant on rewetted peatland restorations. GST has high starch content and is currently being explored for potential use. This study explored the potential of using the biomass pulp yielded as resi-dues of the starch extraction process. Endolichenic fungi (Trichoderma reesei and Aspergillus aculeatus) isolated from local lichens, were inoculated on the GST biomass in a solid state fermentation (SSF). Findings of this study indicate that both isolates were effective in degrading the lignocellulosic biomass of GST over an incubation period of 28 days, focusing on cellulose as the targeted polysaccharide. Although T. reesei requires a more adjusted carbon source than A. aculeatus to effectively process the biomass, the effectiveness of the bioprocess after adjustment matched that of A. aculeatus. When hemicellulose is targeted, other strategies must be used to prevent destruction of hemicellulose during the process. This phenomenon should be explored in further studies. These findings indicate the potential of industrial-izing cellulose-based products from GST using local North Sulawesi fungal species abundantly occurring in local eco-systems.

Abstract

ABSTRAK Sayuran merupakan kelompok komoditas pangan yang pada umumnya dikonsumsi masyarakat. Mengonsumsi sayuran memberi sumbangan terutama vitamin A dan C, serta serat yang sangat penting bagi tubuh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui teknik memasak panas basah / moist head cooking pada sayuran di instalasi gizi Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah S.K. Lerik Kota Kupang. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif observasional yang dilaksanakan di RSUD S.K.lerik kota kupang pada bulan maret 2021 Penelitian ini menggunakan kuisioner pengamatan sehingga mendapatkan hasil teknik memasak panas basah di Instalasi Gizi RSUD S.K. Lerik Kota Kupang. Dari hasil pengamatan, diketahui bahwa teknik memasak panas basah / moice head cooking di Rumah Sakit Umum Daerah S.K Lerik Kota Kupang meliputi teknik merebus (Boiling),simmering,blancing, stewing, steaming(mengukus), dan juga mendapatkan siklus menu 3 hari untuk pasien umum dan juga terdapat alat untuk memasak sayuran yaitu: panci, alat pengukus

Abstract

The evolving complexity of public health challenges necessitates innovative pedagogical approaches that bridge theoretical knowledge and practical application. This study investigates the integration of simulation-based learning (SBL) and case-based learning (CBL) in public health education, focusing on their impact on students’ engagement, critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and collaborative skills. Employing a qualitative phenomenological design, the study engaged 20 undergraduate students and 5 educators from a public health program, purposively selected to capture diverse experiences. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, and reflective journals, and analyzed using thematic analysis to identify recurring patterns and emergent themes. Findings reveal that students perceive SBL as highly engaging, fostering active participation, decision-making, and reflective learning, while CBL enhances analytical reasoning, evidence-based problem-solving, and the ability to apply theoretical concepts to practical public health scenarios. Educators highlighted that facilitating these innovative methods requires careful planning, facilitative guidance, and iterative feedback but significantly enhances student learning outcomes and collaborative skill development. Despite challenges such as time constraints, resource limitations, and initial student anxiety, both students and educators recognized the transformative potential of SBL and CBL in cultivating essential competencies for public health practice. The study underscores the value of integrating experiential and case-driven learning strategies into public health curricula to prepare graduates for complex, real-world challenges. These findings have significant implications for curriculum design, faculty development, and educational policy, advocating for the prioritization of active learning methods to produce competent, confident, and adaptable public health professionals.
