Abstract

Mycofoam is a biocomposite composed of mycelial filaments that bind to the host substrate, which can replace polystyrene. This research aims to determine the most appropriate formulation of the growing medium and mushroom to be used in mycofoam products based on some parameters. Composition is one of the main factors for selecting the most appropriate mycofoam to replace polystyrene. On the other hand, the quality of mycofoam can be assessed through its strength and water resistance. The mushroom mycelium used in this study came from Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinula edodes. Besides, the growing medium formulation comprises five different compositions, each containing different proportions of sawdust and bagasse. This research was composed of preparation of growing medium, spawn inoculation, molding, heating, testing, and data analysis. Based on the results, the combination of 100 percent sawdust and L. edodes was the most appropriate choice compared to other formulations based on strength and appearance. The results of the water absorption test showed that all mycofoam formulations were not resistant to water, bio-based coating can be used to overcome this problem.

Abstract

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) emerged as a cause of high mortality rates in low-middle-income countries, including Indonesia. Understanding predictor variables to the commonly used biomarkers, including lipid profiles and blood glucose levels, can thus be beneficial in disease prevention strategies. To support that, this study aims to analyze the genetic, lifestyle, and disease history variables as predictors towards lipid and blood glucose profiles. The respondent’s data were collected from clinical data, food recall, health history, and genetic profiling. From the results, APOA5 rs662799 is positively correlated with triglyceride (TG) levels. Sugar, fat, fiber, and calorie intake also significantly affect lipid and blood glucose profiles. Exercise conditions such as aerobic and flexibility exercise duration significantly correlated with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) profiles. Disease history in individuals and families emerged as additional variables associated with the response variables. These findings can serve as a preliminary study for understanding health predictors that can be used to predict incident of metabolic diseases in the Indonesian population.
