Abstract

Air kelapa adalah senyawa alami kompleks yang sering digunakan sebagai pengatur tumbuh alami.   Penggunaan air kelapa sebagai bahan organik merupakan alternatif dari penggunaan bahan sintetis pada tanaman. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh konsentrasi limbah dalam air kelapa dan air cucian beras serta lama perendaman terhadap perkecambahan biji kacang hijau. Parameter yang diamati adalah tinggi globul, jumlah radikula, dan panjang radikula. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, air kelapa dan air cucian beras berpengaruh terhadap tinggi bulu dimana bulu tertinggi terdapat pada kombinasi (20 ml air kelapa + 80 ml air cucian beras dan perendaman 2 jam). Panjang radikula terpanjang ditemukan pada kombinasi (10 ml air kelapa + 90 ml air cucian beras dan perendaman 6 jam). Jumlah akar paling banyak terdapat pada kombinasi (50 ml air kelapa + 50 ml air cucian beras dan perendaman 6 jam).

Abstract

Dermatophytes are a group of fungi that cause nail abnormalities. This study aims to determine dermatophyte fungal infections in patients with nail mycoses. The method used in this study is descriptive and the sample was taken by purposive sampling with the criteria of damaged toenails, with characteristics: nails are not shiny, brownish to black from the base to the tip then the nails are examined directly with 10% KOH and cultured using media Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA). The fungi isolated on slanted agar containing SDA and each fungal species were then identified using preparations for microscopic examination. The results showed that from 30 samples, 8 (eight) nail samples were positive for dermatophytes, namely: 5 (five) people infected with the fungus Tricophyton mentagrophytes species, 2 (two) people infected with the Trichophyton rubrum fungus, and 1 (one) person infected with Epidermophyton floccosum..

Abstract

Air pollution, primarily originating from transportation and industrial activities, has become a major concern in the context of environmental health. This study aims to investigate the relationship between air pollution and the morphological characteristics of leaves as well as the stomatal density of the pulutan plant (Urena lobata L.) in polluted environments within the industrial area of Medan and unpolluted environments in Percut Sei Tuan, Medan, North Sumatra. The research method employed is ex-post facto with a laboratory approach to the polluted industrial area. Experimental results indicate that the stomatal density on pulutan leaves in the polluted area, specifically in the Industrial Zone of Medan, is 17.27/mm2, whereas in the unpolluted area, namely Percut Sei Tuan, it is 896.81/mm2. This difference provides insights into the negative impacts of air pollution on pulutan plants, highlighting the importance of maintaining air quality for ecosystem health and human well-being.

Abstract

Endophytic bacteria are bacteria that live within plant tissues and are capable of producing secondary metabolites in the form of bioactive compounds similar to those produced by their host plants. This study aims to isolate and characterize endophytic bacteria from the roots of kecombrang (Etlingera elatior (Jack) R. M. Smith) and to test their ability to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. The research was conducted using a quantitative descriptive method through several stages, including sample preparation, sterilization of equipment and media, isolation, characterization, and testing. The results identified three isolates of endophytic bacteria from the roots of kecombrang, namely AK1, AK2, and AK3, which were shown to be gram-positive cocci. Inhibition tests indicated that these endophytic bacteria exhibit antagonistic properties against Staphylococcus aureus. The isolate coded AK1 had an inhibition zone of 9.6 mm, AK2 had the lowest inhibition zone of 6.6 mm, and AK3 had the largest inhibition zone of 13.5 mm.
