Abstract

Brantas River is the largest river in East Java, flowing from the city of Batu upstream until downstream in Surabaya and Sidoarjo. This river plays a crucial role as a vital natural resource that supports the various needs of the surrounding communities. This study serves as a preliminary investigation with the primary aim of assessing the water quality in three different zones of the Brantas River: the upper, middle, and downstream sites. Additionally, this research includes a review to identify the organisms exposed to water pollution in the Brantas River. The study was conducted from November 2020 to April 2023, utilizing an exploratory observational method at 19 observation stations. The data obtained was subsequently analyzed using a descriptive approach. Various parameters were observed, including pH (a measure of acidity or alkalinity), hardness (the concentration of calcium and magnesium ions), alkalinity (the capacity of water to neutralize acids), nitrate, nitrite, fluoride, and heavy metals such as lead (Pb), copper (Cu), and iron (Fe). The research findings indicate that in several upstream areas of the Brantas River, there were elevated hardness, nitrate, lead (Pb), and iron (Fe) that exceeded the established water quality standards. In the middle section of the river, water quality was generally satisfactory, although a few locations exhibited slightly elevated levels of lead (Pb). Meanwhile, all locations downstream of the Brantas River demonstrated water quality that exceeded the prescribed standards. After a literature review, it was discovered that various biota in the Brantas River have been exposed to pollutants, including fish species and plants like Ipomea aquatica and Eichhornia crassipes. Therefore, it is necessary and urgent to improve water management and monitoring plants and biota in the Brantas River to preserve organisms in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

Abstract

One of Indonesia's strategies to improve the quality of its economy as a developing country is to boost industrial activity. However, the existence of industry has a detrimental consequence, one of which is heavy metal copper pollution (Cu). Phytoremediation is one of the ecologically acceptable pollutant treatment methods. Phytoremediation approaches using Sagittaria lancifolia plants are thought to be capable of overcoming heavy metal Cu contamination in the environment. This research is a preliminary study into the limitations of the Sagittaria lancifolia plant's capacity to absorb heavy metal Cu. This study employed an experimental technique, which was carried out between March 26 and April 7, 2021, in the Purwodadi Botanic Garden's Greenhouse, with four concentration variations, namely 0 mg/L, 1 mg/L, 3 mg/L, and 5 mg/L. According to the result of this research, the plant Sagittaria lancifolia may remediate heavy metal Cu at a maximum concentration of 5 mg/L. This is due to the fact that at this concentration, the Sagittaria lancifolia plant presents indications of death, particularly severe chlorosis and necrosis.

Abstract

Indonesia boasts 74 diverse ecosystems, with the riparian system, found in areas like the Welang watershed in Malang Regency, Pasuruan Regency, and Pasuruan City, standing out. These moisture-adapted vegetative zones act as key transitions between aquatic and terrestrial habitats. Human activities in the central Welang watershed could impact its rich vegetation. This study aimed to catalog plant species in the riparian zones and assess their influence on water quality. Utilizing an explorative quantitative descriptive method, research was conducted at four sites in the central Welang watershed in June 2023, encompassing vegetation inventory and water sampling. Findings revealed 67 individual plants from 29 families, predominantly trees, in the central Welang region. This count exceeds the downstream but is less than the upstream. Water quality met the standards, indicating no pollution. Nonetheless, the potential presence of heavy metals necessitates further studies. Understanding Welang's riparian dynamics provides insights into riverbank ecosystems in Indonesia and possibly Southeast Asia. As these zones bridge aquatic and terrestrial environments, they're pivotal for biodiversity, water management, and settlement planning. This research underlines the need to harmonize human progress with ecological conservation, especially as the global focus intensifies on sustainable practices. The study's outcomes can enhance global discussions on riparian ecosystem preservation.

Abstract

Inflammation is an early symptom of a disease that reduces the level of health. Single-bulb garlic (Allium sativum L.) is used medicinally as a plant with a broad pharmacological effect, especially anti-inflammatory activity. Self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) have offered opportunities to improve drug delivery. The current study aimed to characterize SNEDDS-single bulb garlic extract (SBGE) and determine its potential as an anti-inflammatory agent in 3T3-L1 cells. SNEDDS was formulated from tween-80, glycerol, canola oil, and SBGE. The formula characterization is done using droplet size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, physical stability test, and antioxidant assay. The cytotoxicity test of SNEDDS-SBGE was evaluated using a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. The anti-inflammatory activity was examined using 3T3-L1 cell methylglyoxal (MG) induction, and the expression of cytokines was measured using immunocytochemistry (ICC). The SNEDDS-SBGE had a nanoemulsion size of 42.30±1.39 nm, 0.6±0.03 for the polydispersion index, and -22.63±0.75 mV for the zeta potential. SNEDDS-SBGE was physically stable and had a high antioxidant level (47.579±8.017 %). SNEDDS-SBGE exhibited no toxic effect on 3T3-L1 cells. The administration of 62.5 µg/ml and 125 µg/ml SNEDDS-SBGE could inhibit (p<0.05) the expression of IL-1β after methylglyoxal induction. Thus, SNEDDS-SBGE may have potential anti-inflammatory properties.

Abstract

River basins are the most fundamental thing in managing natural water resources in Indonesia. Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing No. 4/PRT/M/2015 concerning standards and ratification of river basins, Indonesia is divided into 128 river basins. The division of East Java is divided into 5 River Basins, namely the Madura Islands WS, Welang - Rejoso WS, Bondoyudo - Bedadung WS, Pekalen-Sampean WS, and Baru - Bajulmati WS. The condition of the river basin is increasingly causing various problems. The methods applied include a qualitative approach. The quantitative approach is carried out through the use of questionnaires filled out by participants followed by conducting a literature review. The results obtained from 48 respondents that the problems in the East Java river basin occurred due to flooding with a percentage of 66.67%, garbage 14.58%, waste 16.67%, and erosion 2.08%. From these problems there are solutions using biotechnology, river ecosystem restoration, wastewater management, dam construction with good infrastructure, the need for river basin monitoring sensors. Other essential factors in the socialization of education and community involvement are NGOs and government regulations.

Abstract

Purwodadi Botanic Garden is one of the botanic gardens in Indonesia, located in Pasuruan, East Java. Purwodadi Botanic Garden (PBG) is an ex-situ plant conservation area that serves five main functions: conservation, research, education, ecotourism, and environmental services. Purwodadi Botanic Garden features a living collection of plants, primarily terrestrial, but also includes aquatic species. Therefore, this study aims to conduct water quality monitoring in aquatic plant ponds and present the experiments of phytoremediation on selected species of aquatic plants. This research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Data were obtained from direct observation of aquatic plants in the garden, monthly monitoring of water quality in 32 ponds, and the results of phytoremediation experiments from research activities spanning over ten years. Monitoring water quality using water-test kits is inexpensive, easy to use, and yields results quickly. Parameters measured for environmental quality are temperature, humidity, light intensity, pH, TDS, and water temperature. The results show that, out of 32 ponds in the garden, only 12 ponds were found to have aquatic plants. The water quality in ponds with aquatic plants is generally better than in those without aquatic plants, indicating that the aquatic plants in ponds act as phytoremediators in the effort to improve water quality. Purwodadi Botanic Garden contains 25 species of aquatic plants. However, during the observation of the pond, only 15 species of aquatic plants were present. The results of the experiments selected 10 species as phytoremediation agents for both organic and inorganic pollution. The 10 species are Acanthus ilicifolius, Actinoscirpus grossus, Ceratophyllum demersum, Coix lacryma-jobi, Echinodorus radicans, Lemna minor, Ludwigia octovalvis, Pistia stratiotes, Sagittaria lancifolia, and Salvinia molesta.
