Abstract

Plankton abundance is influenced by seasons, sea surface currents (SSC), nutrients and surface temperature (SST). Is a marine organism has a function to stabilize the surface temperature of the earth by regulating the concentration of Dimetyl sulfide (DMS) due to exposure to direct sunlight. There is the ability of the ocean to regulate warming and to regulate the distribution of water vapor in the atmosphere which is controlled by sea surface temperature. Sampling using the transeck system in September and January represents the rainy season and the dry season which is closest to the Tallo river estuary and the Pangkep river estuary represents the estuary region, towards the coast of the spermonde (Litoral) islands and far from the coast (offshore) from freshwater sources, but the relationship of nutrient entry into estuary areas by sea surface currents (SSC) is still poorly known. The dominant aspect of phytoplankton is determined by the amount of nutrients flowing (runoff) from land to estuary to spermonde waters

Abstract

Anthocyanin is the one of natural dyes that often used in foodstuffe, because anthocyanin can make a more color like red, blue and purple. Anthocyanin storage can make anthocyanin is damage, because the interaction with tempherature, light, and oxygen show that can given effect about the stability anthocyanin color, and decrease the anthocyanin as an antioxidant. That problem can be solved with copigmentation, that is an anthocyanin reaction with metal ion. In this study can showed that ethanol extract from Rambutan peel and we obtained 23.824 gram with total anthocyanin content of 709.3866 mg/L with antioxidant activity of 0.0046 μg/mL, and then the extract of anthocyanin with metal ion Mg2+ in concentration 50; 100 and 150 ppm had IC50 are 0.0061; 0.0048 and 0.0067 μg/mL. This conclution from the added of metal ion Mg2+ showed that has not show much different antioxidant activity.

Abstract

An investigation on purification and characterization of amyloglucosidase enzyme from Endomycopsis fibuligera by fermentation of sago starch has been carried out. This enzyme is inductive and can be produced by fermenting sago starch in a medium containing E. fibuligera. Crude enzyme was obtained by centrifuging the medium cultures containing E. fibuligera at 6,000 rpm for 20 min and then adding with 0.15 M acetate buffer (pH 5.0). Enzyme activity was determined using Somogyi-Nelson method by quantifying the released glucose from amyloglucosidase catalysis of starch (0.2%) as substrate. Prepurification process was conducted by ammonium sulphate fractionation and it showed that the ammonium sulphate fractionation with the degree of saturation of 40-60% produced a maximum activity of enzyme. Purification by DEAE-Cellulose and Sephadex G-75 column chromatography produced three and one fractions with purifity 17.4 and 22.5 times, respectively, compared to the crude extract enzyme. Characterization of this enzyme showed the optimum condition at pH 5.0 and 55 °C with 0.2% starch as substrate. The amyloglucosidase activities was strongly increased by addition of Co2+ and Mn2+ ions, whereas the activities were weakly decreased by addition of K+, Mg2+, and Fe3+ ions.
