Abstract

Water is a source of life on the surface of the earth because it becomes a necessity for every organism. The need for water continues to increase, but the availability of clean water continues to decrease. Efforts to preserve important water sources are made to meet current and future water needs. Hindus in Bali have long practiced water resources conservation and managing water quality through various forms of local wisdom. Local wisdom is passed down through generations of routine activities in daily life. Water as a gift because it gives life is placed as a holy one which is then referred to as holy water or tirta. The use of tirta in various ceremonial activities causes Hinduism in Bali to be often identified with tirta religion. For Balinese people, water is a symbol of Vishnu which is a manifestation of God as the preserver of world life. Positioning water as a sacred thing has the meaning of obligation to maintain the quality and quantity of water to be maintained. Positioning the water source as a sacred area is also a form of effort to protect the springs to avoid pollution. The ceremony of mendak tirta and mendak toya became a form of local wisdom on the procedures of water use and efficient use of water. The concept of nyegara-Gunung (sea-mountain) is one of the proofs that Balinese Hindus commit to maintaining the hydrological cycle, so that life is maintained.

Abstract

Over the past 50 years (1970-2020) the world's population has risen by an average of 1.49% per year so that in 2020 it reached 7.79 billion people. This increase automatically increases food needs. While to this day there are still over 820 million undernourished people. Food legumes have enormous potential in supporting food security because they are rich in nutrients, including high energy, protein, carbohydrate, fiber, and other nutrients. Even among them, like chickpeas have higher energy content than some major cereal crops. Food legumes production continues to increase from year to year. Compared to three decades ago, soybean annual production more than tripled with production in 2017 reaching 352.2 million tons, as well as pulses that increased more than 35 million tons with production in 2017 reaching 96 million tons. These improvements are not only supported by field expansion, but also the impact of technological improvements which have effect on increasing yield. This review describes the trends in increasing production and yield of food legumes, as well as the progress of breeding technologies in order to increase diversities have impact on increasing the yields and adaptation against the environment. These explanations are discussed in each food legume species

Abstract

In Indonesia, there are many criminal cases. Every criminal offender will certainly bring and leave something at the crime scene that can be used as a trial or evidence. In addition, perpetrators who accidentally or intentionally come into contact with surrounding objects can cause the transfer of trace evidence to these objects. DNA touch left on an object can provide information about the identity of individuals in contact with that object. This study aimed to determine the quantity and quality of DNA Touch in glasses made of glass, plastic, and ceramic that were touched by one proband and two probands. DNA extraction was carried out using the 5% Chelex method. using Univariate and one-way ANOVA. DNA quality was observed based on the comparison results of Å260 and Å280 on the SimpliNano spectrophotometer. The results showed that the concentration of DNA in glass, plastic and ceramics was not significantly different in each treatment. There was no interaction between the type of glass and hand touch, the average DNA concentration. Extracted DNA showed poor quality

Abstract

Introduction: The traditional textile art of Tenun Cepuk from Nusa Penida is highly valued for its intricate designs and cultural importance. Nevertheless, the environmental predicament posed by the textile industry's wastewater, particularly due to dye-related contamination, is substantial and necessitates sustainable remedies. Seaweed powder shows considerable promise as an adsorbent for addressing dye wastewater issues within the textile sector. An essential aspect of this endeavor is to explore the dynamic relationship between different thicknesses and contact durations, as it is pivotal in optimizing the adsorption capacity and effectiveness of seaweed powder for treating dye wastewater..Method: This research, utilizing an Experimental research design with a Posttest Only Control Group Design, is conducted to evaluate the influence of an intervention on the experimental group as compared to the control group. Euchema cottonii seaweed, sourced from Nusa Penida, is employed as the adsorbent. Different thicknesses of seaweed powder, namely 5 cm, 10 cm, and 15 cm, are added to tanks. Subsequently, wastewater samples from the Cepuk weaving process are introduced into each of the experimental tanks, alongside a control group. The process is allowed to continue for 24 and 72 hours as varying contact durations. The adsorption outcomes are then subjected to analysis, including parameters such as TSS, TDS, BOD5, and COD, at the Panureksa Denpasar Laboratory.Results: The application of seaweed powder as an adsorbent proves to be efficient in decreasing TDS, TSS, BOD5, and COD levels in Cepuk textile dye wastewater. The extent of reduction relies on the thickness of the adsorbent and the duration of contact. Increased thickness of the adsorbent results in a pronounced reduction in TDS, TSS, BOD5, and COD levels, leading to an improvement in the quality of wastewater and a safer environmental impact. Specifically, an adsorbent with a thickness of 15 cm effectively reduces TDS to permissible levels. Extended contact times also lead to a significant decrease in these levels..Conclusion: The application of seaweed powder is a viable method for reducing TDS, TSS, BOD5, and COD levels in textile dye wastewater. The thickness of the adsorbent and the duration of contact play a substantial role in improving the quality of the wastewater.

Abstract

Stunting is still a health problem faced by Indonesian children. The incidence of stunting according to Indonesian Nutrition Status Survey (SSGI) in 2021 was 24.4% and in 2022 it’s decrease to 21.6%. There were exceeds from WHO recommended requirement 20%. Holistic efforts from the government and society were needed to accelerate stunting reduction. This research aims to produce an integrated approach model such as nutrition education, tuina massage and psychomotor training (Gina Latrik) in accelerating to decrease of stunting rates. This type of research is true experimental. Subjects were divided into two groups, ie;  “Gina Latrik B” treatment group (balanced nutrition education, massage Tuina therapy with a frequency of 3–5 times/week and psychomotor training) and control group “Gina Latrik A” (balanced nutrition education, massage therapyTuinawith a frequency of 1–2 times/week and psychomotor training). The average knowledge level of toddler mothers after given the intervention was 83.66 ± 4.04% in the control group and 87.98 ± 5.88% in treatment group and significant difference with p=0.040 (p0.05). The results of research on macronutrient intake (energy, protein) in two groups showed significant differences (p0.05) and nutrient intake in Gina Latrik B was better than Gina Latrik A. Nutritional status results with height/age shows that the Z score = 2.17 ± 0.379 (Gina latrik A) dan 2.73 ± 0.452 for Gina Latrik B) with p=0.003 (p0.05), there was a significant difference on t-independent analysis. That means the Gina Latrik B was better than Gina Latrik A. Psychomotor development shows an increase in both groups, in Gina Latrik A there is an increase in psychomotor ability in the "appropriate" category of 33,30% to 60%. Meanwhile, in the Gina Latrik B group there was a sharp increase from 39.39% to 90.91%. Based on analysist independent showed a significant difference p = 0.003 (p0.005). Based on the results it can be prove that Gina Latrik B intervention was better for decreasing of stunting compared to Gina Latrik A.
