Abstract

Speaking as the most demanding skill to be mastered in the ESL/EFL teaching context. Thisis caused by the prime priority of students who want to study English in order to be able to use Englishfor communicative purposes. Knowledge of language functions has a vital role in supporting a speaker tobe more involved in the real interaction. The aims of this study are to identify and analyze the kinds oflanguage functions and how their use in the speaking for academic purposes course. This study wasconducted at Universitas Katolik Indonesia Santu Paulus Ruteng, Flores. The data were taken from 33English department students who were doing the English speaking exercises at the speaking for academicpurposes course. The data were collected through observation, field note and recording during eightmeetings on October- November 2018 and only language functions utterances of those respondents wereanalyzed. The recorded utterances are expected to be representative of the whole the language functions.Utterances produced by respondents were recorded precisely by the researchers. The result showed thatthere are five types of language functions found, namely interactive function, informative function,manipulative function, motivative function and directive functions. Those functions are reciprocal.Speaking practitioners are suggested to provide the knowledge of language functions in the speakinglearning process.

Abstract

There are many reasons why tourists travel or visit certain places, and chief among them is to seek happiness. For example, they feel happy when they get the hedonic experience. Unfortunately, the effect of hedonic values and tourism experiences on tourists' happiness has thus far remained unclear. This study was aimed to analyze the effect of hedonic value on the tourist experience, prove the effect of hedonic value on tourists' hedonic happiness, and examine the effect of tourist experience on tourists' hedonic happiness. This research took place in Bali, and the research subjects were foreign tourists who visited Bali. The total number of respondents was 171. All structured interviews and questionnaires were performed and distributed online. Data analysis was conducted using SEM (Structural Equation Model). The research findings show the positive and significant effect of hedonic values on tourist experience. There is a positive and significant effect of tourist experience on tourist hedonic happiness. It was found that there was no direct effect of hedonic value on tourist hedonic happiness. Out of the demonstrated intervariable correlations, we managed to create the Model of Hedonic Tourist Happiness (MHTH). This study concludes that the MHTH consists of hedonic value, tourist experiences, and tourist hedonic happiness variables. This MHTH can be applied to improve tourism services in Bali, and particularly to boost the tourist experience and tourist happiness. Keywords: Bali, Hedonic Happiness, Tourists Experiences.

Abstract

The growing demand for functional foods has encouraged the development of dairy products enriched with natural bioactive ingredients to improve nutritional value and health benefits. This study aimed to analyze the nutritional composition and antioxidant activity of yogurt enriched with butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea L.) extract. Yogurt was prepared from fresh goat milk with varying concentrations of butterfly pea extract and evaluated for protein, fat, carbohydrate, moisture, ash, vitamin C contents, antioxidant activity, and sensory acceptance. Proximate analysis, UV–Vis spectrophotometry, and the DPPH method were used for chemical determinations, while a hedonic test assessed color, taste, aroma, and texture. Results showed that increasing butterfly pea extract significantly decreased protein and fat contents but increased vitamin C and antioxidant activity, with the highest values observed in yogurt containing 60% extract and 4% formulation (N60K2). Moisture and ash contents were not significantly affected. Sensory evaluation indicated that yogurt with 60% extract and 2% formulation (N60K1) was preferred regarding color, taste, aroma, and texture. Considering compliance with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) and consumer acceptance, N60K1 was the optimal formulation. The findings suggest that butterfly pea extract can enhance the functional properties of yogurt, particularly its antioxidant potential, while maintaining acceptable sensory quality. This provides insights for developing functional dairy products with natural plant-based bioactives.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the species of Lepidopteran predators that prey on soft scale insects (Coccidae) found on coffee plants in Sigi Regency using molecular techniques. DNA was extracted using the modified CTAB method (Doyle & Doyle, 1990). PCR amplification targeted the COI gene using universal primers LCO1490 and HCO2198 with a GeneAmp PCR System 9700. Visualization was done using 1% agarose gel and UV-transilluminator. Sequencing was conducted externally. Data were analyzed using BioEdit 7.2.5, BLAST, BOLD Systems, and MEGA11 software. The DNA sequence of the predator sample showed 97.91% similarity to Autoba rubra based on GenBank and 97.59% in BOLD Systems. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed a close genetic relationship with A. rubra, distinct from Eublemma. Morphological similarities with Eublemma were misleading, highlighting the accuracy of molecular identification. This study is the first to confirm the identity of a Lepidopteran predator of coffee scale insects in Indonesia using molecular techniques, revealing its close relation to Autoba rubra. The results correct previous morphological misidentifications and contribute new data on predator diversity in biological control contexts.

Abstract

Honey is a valuable natural product with nutritional, medicinal, and economic importance, but its high commercial value makes it prone to adulteration, which threatens consumer trust and product quality. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of simple purity tests in identifying adulteration in honey samples collected from several regions in Central Sulawesi Province. A total of 12 honey samples from different bee species and floral sources were analyzed using seven tests, namely solubility, cloudiness and foam, heating, hexagonal pattern, seepage, raw fish, and onion tests. The results showed that most tests successfully distinguished pure honey from adulterated samples. Specifically, the solubility, cloudiness and foam tests, as well as heating, and raw fish tests indicated that 66.67% of the samples were pure, while the hexagonal pattern, seepage, and onion tests confirmed purity in all samples (100%). These findings demonstrate that simple, low-cost methods can provide reliable initial screening of honey purity and are suitable for routine use in local communities where advanced laboratory facilities are limited. The application of these tests is expected to support honey quality assurance, protect consumer trust, and promote the sustainable development of the beekeeping industry in Central Sulawesi.

Abstract

This study aims to inventory the plant species utilized by the local community as medicinal resources in Rano Village, Balaesang Tanjung Sub-district, and to examine their potential use as instructional learning media. The study employed a descriptive research design with a qualitative approach. Primary data were collected directly through interviews and field observations using a survey method with purposive sampling. Data collection techniques included direct observation, community interviews, and documentation of field findings. In the local context, a traditional healer (sando) plays a significant role as a key informant due to their extensive knowledge regarding the identification and use of medicinal plants. The results of the study revealed that the community utilizes 22 species of medicinal plants belonging to 14 plant families to treat various ailments, including rheumatism, asthma, hypertension, itching, scabies, cough, influenza, and several other health conditions. The plant parts used include leaves, stems, fruits, roots, bark, shoots, sap, and in some cases the entire plant. The preparation and utilization methods commonly practiced by the community include pounding, boiling, topical application, and direct consumption. Based on these findings, the documented information on medicinal plant utilization has strong potential to be developed as instructional media in the form of an educational e-book to support biology learning.

Abstract

This study investigated the phylogenetic relationships of Megapodius cumingii using bioinformatic analyses. Blood samples were collected from the Kabetan Island population, followed by DNA extraction using the QIAamp DNA Blood Mini Kit, PCR amplification with Takara Ex Taq™ and RDP1.U1/RDP1.L1 primers, and sequencing with BigDye Terminator v3.1 ABI PRISM 3100. Chromatograms were converted into nucleotide sequences using BioEdit, and sequence similarity was assessed using NCBI BLAST. Multiple sequence alignment, model selection, nucleotide composition analysis, and phylogenetic reconstruction were performed in MEGA 12. The RDP1 gene of M. cumingii from Kabetan showed a consistent nucleotide composition with high GC content (55.27%) and high similarity to M. cumingii sequence KF834037.1, with substitutions dominated by transitions (A↔G, T↔C). Maximum likelihood analysis under the T92+G model (1.03) revealed three major clades, with clades 1 and 2 strongly supported (bootstrap = 100). The Kabetan population formed a monophyletic subclade with KF834037.1 (bootstrap = 86) and showed a very short branch length (~0.05 substitutions/site), indicating low intraspecific divergence, with Megapodius tenimberensis as the closest sister taxon. These findings support the utility of RDP1 for phylogenetic resolution within Megapodiidae and provide a preliminary basis for conservation planning and population connectivity assessment of M. cumingii in Wallacea.
