Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a serious health problem with an increasing number of sufferers. In this context, an important method for controlling blood sugar levels is the derivation of α-amylase enzyme inhibitors from natural materials such as endophytic fungi. Therefore, this research aimed to analyze the potential of endophytic fungi from Tithonia diversifolia leaves as α-amylase enzyme inhibitors, secondary metabolites, as well as the character and identity of potential endophytic fungi. The stages included isolation and identification of endophytic fungi, extraction of secondary metabolites, α-amylase inhibition tests, analysis of bioactive compounds using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), and identification of potential endophytic fungi. The results showed that DT3J1 (67.83 µg/mL), DM3J1 (69.36 µg/mL), DT2J2 (80.42 µg/mL), and DT4J1 (88.64 µg/mL) of the eight endophytic fungi isolates reported high potential as inhibitors of the α-amylase enzyme, with IC50 values ​classified as strong. Potential fungal extracts contain bioactive compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, and terpenoids. Meanwhile, molecular identification showed that potential endophytic fungi consisted of Curvularia pseudointermedia, Diaporthe passifloricola, Nodulisporium verrucosum, and Muyocopron laterale species. This research also provided scientific evidence on the potential of the endophytic fungus Tithonia diversifolia as a candidate for antidiabetic drugs.

Abstract

Musi River is a waterway in South Sumatra that faces increasing plastic pollution, threatening aquatic ecosystems and human life. This study aims to identify and evaluate plastic-degrading bacteria from Musi River using phenotypic and molecular approaches. The methods of this study include bacterial isolation, plastic degradation test, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis were carried out to assess degradation efficiency and changes in surface morphology, phenotypic and molecular identification. The results showed that isolates S1I3, S1I5, and S2I1 had high plastic degradation potential, with levels of 38.03%, 34.73%, and 30.46%, respectively. SEM observations showed changes in surface morphology, including pores and cracks. Molecular identification confirmed that S1I3 was Bacillus proteolyticus (99.87%), while S1I5 and S2I1 matched Bacillus cereus (100%).

Abstract

The aim of this research was to study the effect of multisynergism bacterial isolates growth of rice plants as well as to obtain best composition of endophytic bacterial isolates, Azotobacter, Azospirilium and phosphate solubilizing bacteria in spurring growth of rice plants. This research was conducted in October 2012 to February 2013. This study arranged in a completely randomized design (All treatments of multiple bacterial isolates resulted in increase of soil N x P Content). The results showed that multibacterial isolates B (endophytic bacteria + Azospirillum) increased vegetative and generative growth of rice plants. Treatment G (composition of endophytic bacterial isolates, Azotobacter, Azospirilium and phosphate solubilizing bacteria) can increase rice yields. Some soil N and P content increased in response to all treatments of multiple bacterial isolates. The similar result was also observed in the N and P uptake that some multiple bacterial isolates improved N and P uptake of plants
