Abstract

The need of dissolving pulp (DP) for rayon fiber production is increasing rapidly in recent years. Sustainable sources of DP raw materials and an effective manufacturing process are urgently required. This study aims to manufacture dissolving pulp (DP) with high brightness from Sansevieria-trifasciata (ST) fiber through the pre-hydrolysis, soda-Anthraquinone (Soda-AQ) cooking, and chlorine-free bleaching processes. The cellulose content, kappa number, pulp yield, and viscosity were analyzed. The results showed that the ?-cellulose content in ST raw material (39.43%) was relatively similar to the ?-cellulose content in Acacia pulping kraft (39.2%). Furthermore, the variations in pre-hydrolysis time affected the Kappa number, pulp yield, and viscosity. The DP obtained by the elementary chlorine-free (ECF) bleaching process had a viscosity of 9.3 cP, ?-cellulose content of 97.7%, and the brightness of 90.1% which was higher than the ISO standard of pulp brightness. The high DP brightness obtained from this unique combination of pre-hydrolysis, soda-AQ cooking and chlorine-free bleaching sequences has great potential for further development, as it can be used in viscose rayon staple fibers production.

Abstract

Acacia crassicarpa wood is widely used in Indonesia as a raw material for dissolving pulp (DP) by the kraft-cooking process. Given that Indonesia has a rich variety and abundance of cellulose-rich wood, it is deemed crucial to research alternative raw materials, such as Terminalia catappa wood. As an alternative source of raw material, Terminalia catappa possesses excellent adaptability to various environmental conditions and is easy to grow everywhere. The current research sought to produce DP using the mixtures of materials from these two plant species as raw materials by pre-hydrolysis, kraft-cooking, and Elementary Chlorine Free (ECF) bleaching. The DP produced had ISO brightness > 88%, alpha-cellulose content > 94%, viscosity > 6.2 cP, and pentosan content of 2.54%. The DP quality traits have met the SNI 938:2017 standards for rayon-grade pulp. Acacia Crassicarpa and Terminalia Catappa are the prospective wood mixture for producing high-quality dissolving pulp via the kraft-cooking process.

Abstract

The rapid increase in antimicrobial resistance has encouraged development of new natural and urgent strategies to fight drug-resistant pathogens, one of which is using endophytic fungi. Endophytic fungi found in Ceriops tagal mangrove plant, which can adapt to extreme salinity environments of up to 60 ppt. Endophytic fungi are isolated from leaves, branch, and roots. Each isolate was identified morphologically and cultured in potato dextrose broth media for 21 days. After incubation, liquid culture was extracted with ethyl acetate and evaporated to obtain a thick extract. The Kirby Bauer method was used to evaluate the antibiotic potential of each endophytic fungal extract against pathogenic microbes Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. Concentration used was 5%, antibiotics used as positive controls were chloramphenicol (30μg/disk), nystatin (100 IU/disk), as negative controls DMSO. Three endophytic fungi were isolated from roots (ECT7, ECT 8, ECT 10), two from leaves (ECT 26, ECT 28) and six from branches (ECT 31, ECT 47, ECT 48, ECT 51, ECT 55 and ECT 85). Fungal isolates ECT10 has been proven to effectively exhibit strong antibiotic activity against microorganisms E. coli, S. aureus, and C. albicans, with inhibition zones measuring 13.0 mm, 11.8 mm, and 11.6 mm, respectively.

Abstract

Ferns are a potential source of biostimulant compounds due to their rich content of bioactive secondary metabolites. This study aimed to evaluate different solvents for extracting bioactive compounds from Davallia denticulata and to identify the optimal extract formulation for enhancing the growth and yield of Kopay chili. This research was conducted from February to May 2024 at the Plant Physiology Research Laboratory and Greenhouse, Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Andalas, Padang. A completely randomized design with 16 treatment combinations involving four solvents (A1 = aquadest, A2 = methanol, A3 = ethanol, A4 = butanol) and four extract concentrations (B0 = 0 mg L-1, B1 = 25 mg L-1, B2 = 50 mg L-1, and B3 = 100 mg L-1) was employed. Plant growth parameters responded differently to various combinations of extract concentration and solvent type. Methanol extract at 100 mg L-1 significantly increased plant height, ethanol at 50 mg L-1 improved shoot dry weight and root biomass, butanol at 100 mg L-1 increased chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll, and methanol at 25 mg L-1 resulted in higher fruit weight. These results indicate that Davallia denticulata extract, when properly formulated, holds strong potential as a natural biostimulant to improve growth and productivity in chili cultivation.
