Abstract

The physical and chemical properties of fresh fruit bunches (FFB) determine the quality of crude palm oil (CPO). The damage to the palm oil fruit accelerates the hydrolysis process, increasing the free fatty acid (FFA) content while decreasing the oil concentration. Damage is caused by the fruit's postharvest procedure, such as transportation time to the manufacturer and collection delays. The processing latency must be appropriate so that FFB damage can be reduced with potassium permanganate (KMnO4). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of KMnO4 on the physical and chemical properties of palm oil FFB, as well as the relationship between the observed variables. The FFB samples were taken from the IPB-Cargill Palm Oil Teaching Farm in Jonggol Bogor, Indonesia. This study employed a randomized complete block design. The experiment included four different concentrations of KMnO4 (0%, 0,025%, 0,050%, and 0,075%). Each treatment was reproduced three times. The results showed that using KMnO4 could preserve the physical quality of palm oil fruit in terms of weight loss, fruit fall, respiration rate, and microbiological content. The chemical quality of fruit is determined by its moisture content and FFA concentration. The optimal KMnO4 concentration was 0.075%. The correlation analysis results show that the observed variables have a positive association. Variables with a strong relationship included weight loss and fruit fall, weight loss and several microbes, weight loss and number of microbes, water content and number of microbes, and FFA and number of bacteria. Keywords: crude palm oil, fresh fruit bunches, potassium permanganate, weight loss

Abstract

Streptomyces sp 45I-3 producing xylanase was isolated from Kalimantan soil sample. Crude enzyme (produced by centrifuging the culture at 14000 rpm for about 5 minutes) and purified xylanase has an optimum condition at pH 5 and 50 oC.  Crude xylanase have half-life time of 2 hours 9 minute at 50 oC, whereas purified xylanase has half-life time of 12 hours. The molecular mass of purified xylanase was determined to be 43.2 and 39.2 kDa.

Abstract

Intensive use of heavy metals, particularly lead and mercury, in industrial activities and mining extraction has caused the widespread distribution of these contaminants, thereby threatening the environment. Consequently, the growth and several physiological responses of five metal-accumulator weed species were examined in response to mercury (Hg) and lead (Pb) treatments. The weed species Brachiaria mutica, Cyperus kyllingia, Ipomoea aquatica, Mikania micrantha, and Paspalum conjugatum were grown in water culture using half-strength Hoagland's solution and subjected to Hg(NO₃)₂ and Pb(NO₃)₂ at concentrations of 0, 0.25, and 0.5 mM for 3 weeks. Plant growth, photosynthesis, lipid peroxidation, and proline content were observed. Both Hg and Pb significantly reduced plant growth, but the decrease was more pronounced under Hg treatment than under Pb. Hg dramatically reduced the photosynthetic rate under different photosynthetic photon flux densities, indicating that Hg up to 0.5 mM damaged the photosynthetic apparatus in almost all species except I. aquatica. Hg and Pb treatments caused a dramatic increase in leaf MDA content, which was associated with a significant decrease in chlorophyll content. Most species were tolerant to Pb up to 0.5 mM except M. micrantha, while only C. kyllingia and I. aquatica were tolerant to Hg treatment up to 0.5 mM. Hg treatment also induced higher proline accumulation in leaves, although without a clear increment pattern among species, suggesting that proline may function as a stress alarm rather than as a tolerance indicator.

Abstract. Hamim, Hanifatunisa, Hadisunarso, Setyaningsih L, Saprudin D. 2019. Lead (Pb) toxicity effect on physio-anatomy of bead-tree, jatropha, castor bean and Philippine-tung grown in water culture. Biodiversitas 20: 3690-3697. Heavy metal contamination in both land and water has been intensively studied because of their broad impact for the environment. Bead-tree (Melia azedarach), Jatropha (Jatropha curcas), castor bean (Ricinus communis) and Philippine tung (Reutealis trisperma) are kinds of non-edible oil-producing species, that are able to grow well on degraded lands and may have potential use for phytoremediation of heavy metals contaminated areas. This study aimed to analyze the response of bead-tree (Melia azedarach), jatropha (Jatropha curcas), castor bean (Ricinus communis) and Philippine-tung (Reutealis trisperma) to lead (Pb) contaminant in water culture experiment based on morphological, physiological and anatomical parameters. Two months old plants were transferred to the media containing Hoagland solution. After three weeks of planting, Pb (NO3)2 treatments with five concentrations, i.e. control (0 mM), 0.5 mM, 1 mM, 2 mM, and 3 mM were added together with Hoagland replacement and the plants were treated for three weeks. The growth, anatomical and physiological parameters were observed during the treatment until three weeks. The results showed that Pb treatment, especially with higher concentration, dramatically decreased plant growth, such as plant height, number of leaves, as well as shoot and root dry weight of all the species. Lead treatment triggered the emergence of free radicals and oxidative stress as indicated by a significant increase of malondialdehyde (MDA) content, while it decreased chlorophyll content of all the species. The higher concentration of Pb (NO3)2 caused the thickness of upper epidermis, lower epidermis, and spongy mesophyll tissue to decrease significantly which contributed to the decrease of leaves thickness. Among the species, Philippine-tung was the most tolerant of Pb toxicity. This species is potential to be used in phytoremediation program of lead-contaminated land such as gold mine area as well as heavy industrial areas.
