Abstract

Data on the diversity of macroscopic fungi in Tahura Pocut Meurah Intan is still not widely available, resulting in a gap in basic data that is essential for conservation, area management, and exploration of biological potential. This study aims to identify the diversity of macroscopic fungal species found in PMI National Park and analyze their distribution based on substrate type and habitat conditions. An exploration survey method was used by following existing hiking trails. Fungal samples found in the field were documented, collected, preserved, and then analyzed morphologically. Data analysis was performed using descriptive qualitative methods, presenting species distribution according to habitat conditions, substrate type, and differences between the rainy and dry seasons. Each category was presented as a percentage of the total identified species. 123 macroscopic fungal species were found, with a dominance of the order Agaricales (39%). A total of 28 species have the potential as alternative food sources, while 17 species have the potential as medicine. The highest diversity was found in habitats with heterogeneous vegetation (85.37%), followed by homogeneous forests (21.95%) and agricultural areas (16.26%). Weathered wood was the main substrate where fungi grew (56%), and the number of species was higher in the rainy season than in the dry season. These findings indicate that the PMI Nature Reserve is an important habitat for macroscopic fungi with variations in distribution influenced by differences in substrate and environmental conditions.

Abstract

Numerous previous studies have proven the efficacy of dodecanoic acid contained by VCO as an antimicrobial, especially antiviral. The global urgency of COVID-19 treatment caused by the 2019-nCoV virus has prompted many researchers around the world to seek effective drugs to cure this infectious disease. Based on the claim that dodecanoic acid and its derivatives can be used as an antiviral, this study aims to determine the levels of VCO dodecanoic acid produced from the traditional yeast fermentation of Aceh, Indonesia. The making of VCO through fermentation with the addition of starter yeast as much as 10% in coconut milk. Analysis of dodecanoic acid levels was performed using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). The results showed that the composition of dodecanoic acid in VCO-pe was higher than VCO-ti. VCO-pe contains about 44.23% dodecanoic acid, while VCO-ti contains about 43.63% dodecanoic acid. The composition of dodecanoic acid contained in VCO-pe was higher than VCO-ti. The composition of dodecanoic acid in VCO has met APCC standards, namely 43.0% -53.0%. These results could append new information about the application of dodecanoic acid in VCO as an antiviral candidate against 2019-nCoV which causes the COVID-19 outbreak.Keywords: antimicrobial, coronavirus, COVID-19, levels of lauric acid, virgin coconut oil

Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the highest known causes of death in Indonesia, especially for women. Pogostemon cablin Benth is one of the Aceh's endemic herbal plants that has been studied to have potential such as anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and proapoptotic. Network pharmacology approach was conducted to explore and analyze the potential of P. cablin as an anti-breast cancer. P. cablin plant compounds were obtained from GCMS and breast cancer genes data were obtained from OMIM, GeneCard, and DisGeNet databases. Target proteins and pathways involved were identified using STRING-DB and Metascape. Network analysis was performed using Cytoscape. A total of 65 plant compounds with 554 target proteins and 1854 disease genes were obtained. Based on the results of combining protein targets using Venn diagrams, 138 overlapping proteins between drug compounds and breast cancer disease targets were identified. Based on KEGG and GO analysis, P. cablin is known to have potential in breast cancer treatment/therapeutic mechanisms. Based on the "compound-protein target-pathway" multi-target mechanism, pogostol; 1H-Cycloprop[e]azulen-7-ol, decahydro-1,1,7-trimethyl-4-methylene-, [1ar-(1aα,4aα,7β,7aβ,7bα)]-; 3-Hexen-1-ol, 2,5-dimethyl-, acetate, (Z)-, 5β,7βH,10α-Eudesm-11-en-1α-ol; Acetic acid, 3-hydroxy-6-isopropenyl-4,8a-dimethyl 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,8a-octahydronaphthalen-2-yl ester; and Humulenol-II interacts with proteins that play a significant role in breast cancer, which are MAPK1, EGFR, TNF, AKT1, and JAK2. Hence, it can be concluded that P. cablin has good potential to be a source of therapeutic treatment against breast cancer. However, it needs to be tested clinically to further determine the effects of this P. cablin compound.

Abstract

DNA isolation is an important step for further molecular analysis. Coffee plants contain polysaccharides, polyphenols, and secondary metabolites which can contaminate the results of DNA isolation. This study was conducted to isolate DNA from arabica and robusta coffee leaves using a modified CTAB method and PCR optimization for amplification of matK and rbcL genes. DNA was isolated using buffers (CTAB 10%, PVP 1%, β-mercaptoethanol 1%, Tris-HCl 1M, NaCl 5M, and EDTA 0.5%), and eluted with TE-RNase. Genomic DNA of ten coffee plants was successfully isolated with concentrations ranging from 33-146 nm/µL with purity (A260/A280) 1.7-1.9. Based on the genomic DNA isolated, matK and rbcL  genes were amplified with initial denaturation conditions of 94°C (for 1 minute of matK and 4 minutes of rbcL) followed by 35 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 30 seconds, annealing (adjusted to each primer), and extension at 72°C for 1 minute. The optimal PCR conditions were effective to amplify matK (900 bp) and rbcL (600 bp) genes. Thus, the modified DNA isolation method and PCR optimization can be used as an efficient tool for further molecular analysis of Coffea arabica L. and Coffea canephora Pierre ex A. Froehner.

Abstract

Aceh is an exceptional region in Indonesia characterized by significant biodiversity and abundant natural wealth. Despite these numerous benefits, there is limited information regarding the potential of biodiversity in this region. Therefore, this research aimed to design and develop Website and Android-based applications to facilitate access to information regarding biodiversity in Aceh. In the development process, the Waterfall method was used, and the applications consisted of two main components, namely the back-end and the front-end. The users were divided into three categories, including contributors, verificators, and admins. After the development was complete, functionality testing was conducted using the black box method, and usability was examined using the Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ). The results of functionality testing showed that both applications operate efficiently, thereby providing users with a satisfying experience when accessing information about Aceh biodiversity. The usability score was approximately 7 for Website-based and 6 for Android-based applications, showing a high level of usability.

Abstract

The Soraya research station is a lowland tropical forest and is included in the management area of the Leuser Ecosystem. This research station has a very high potential for biodiversity. This study aimed to determine the number and types of members of the Dipterocarpaceae tribe and to calculate the quantitative parameters of the plant community. Data collection in this study was carried out using the squared plot method placed randomly at the research location. The analysis used is the Shannon-Wiener diversity index, relative density, relative frequency, relative dominance, and Importance Value Index. The results show that ten species of Dipterocarpaceae belong to various levels of growth, namely seedlings, saplings, poles, and trees. Species of the Dipterocarpaceae spread over 40 plots. Shorea multiflora (Burck) Symington is a species that shows a widespread level and high degree of dominance at the study site. Analysis of plant species diversity using the Shannon-Wiener Index shows that both forest types, primary and secondary, are classified into the high species diversity index.
