Abstract

Green grass jelly (Cyclea barbata Miers.) is known for its benefit to human health especially in supporting body’s immune system and wellness. This research aimed to determine immunomodulatory and antioxidant activity of green grass jelly leaf extracts in vitro. Old leaves were collected as sample then dried and ground to powder. The extraction was done with sohxletation using three different solvents, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and ethanol. The immunomodulatory activity was evaluated by treating the crude extracts at concentrations of 50, 100, and 500 mg/mL on macrophages of rat in vitro. Macrophage cells separated form peritoneal fluid used RPMI medium. Phagocytosis activity and phagocytosis capacity of macrophages were performed in vitro using latex beads that suspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS). The antioxidant activity was measured by spectrophotometry technique with 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) solution. All treatments were done three replicates. Detection of the bioactive groups of the extracts was done by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). The results showed that ethyl acetate extract has the highest phagocytosis activity followed by chloroform extract and ethanol extract, respectively. Optimum concentration was reached at 100 mg/mL of ethyl acetate extract. The ethyl acetate extract was also the highest antioxidant activity index 7.7 followed by both extracts of chloroform and ethanol similar index value of 6.25 and 6.3, respectively. The ethyl acetate extract has a high immunomodulatory activity and antioxidant activity which contained phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, and terpenoids.

The immunomodulatory activity was evaluated by treating the crude extracts at concentrations of 50, 100, and 500 mg/mL on macrophages of rat in vitro. The treated macrophage was then challenged for their phagocytic activity to latex beads. The antioxidant activity was done using 1,1-diphenil-2-picrilhydrazil (DPPH) with spectrophotometry technique. All treatments were done with three replicates. Detection of the bioactive groups of the extracts was done by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). The results showed that ethyl acetate extract has the highest phagocytic activity followed with chloroform extract and ethanol extract, respectively. Optimum concentration was reached at 100 mg/mL of ethyl acetat extract. The ethyl acetate extract was also the extract with the highest antioxidant activity index 7.7 followed by both extracts of chloroform and ethanol with similar index value of 6.25 and 6.3, respectively. The ethyl acetate extract contained phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, and terpenoids.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the distribution pattern and population density of Buchanania arborescens (Blume) Blume in Ultramafic Soil, Podi Village, Tojo District, Tojo Una-Una District, Central Sulawesi. Observations were made using the purposive sampling method by establishing five (5) transects 50x10 m in size which there were subplots with size 10x10 m to observe tree (DBH >10 cm), 5x5 m for the sapling and 2x2 m for seedling with a distance of 20 m between transects. The distribution pattern of Buchanania arborescens at the study site was determined by calculating the morbidity index with the results of calculations on seedling phase Id (0.04), sapling Id (0.05) and tree Id (-1.00). The highest density of Buchanania arborescens is in the seedling phase with a value of 200 individuals/Ha, the sapling phase is 176 individuals/Ha and the lowest value is in the tree phase with a total density of 40 individuals/Ha. The results showed that the distribution pattern of Buchanania arborescens for the seedling and sapling phases were clumped, while the tree phase was uniform. The density of Buchanania arborescens was rare density category.

Abstract

One thing that honeybees create that is very beneficial to human health is honey. Consequently, honey is frequently faked. With melissopalynology analysis, honey quality can be ascertained. A technique for analyzing pollen in honey to ascertain its botanical and geographic origin is called melissopalynology analysis.This study uses melissopalynology to analyze the quality and pollen composition of honey produced by Apis cerana bees in Dolago Village, Central Sulawesi. The research consists of five stages: collecting honey, extracting pollen from it using a modified acetolysis method, identifying pollen, classifying honey, and last, absolute pollen count. The analysis identified 11 plant species contributing to honey production, with Cocos nucifera as the predominant pollen (70%). Classified as unifloral honey with Group IV pollen richness, this research confirms the high quality and unique floral origin of Dolago honey, emphasizing its potential for local economic development.

Abstract

Sarcotheca celebica is an endemic Sulawesi plant capable of growing in ultramafic and calcareous soils. The anatomical structure of its vegetative organs plays a role in adaptation to extreme environments. This study aimed to compare the anatomy of leaves, stems and roots of S. celebica in both soil types. Microscopic preparations of leaves, stems and roots were made with the Free Hand Section method, documented using Optilab Viewer 2.2, and measured with Image Raster 3. Statistical analysis was conducted with the T-test. The results showed anatomical variations in response to soil conditions. S. celebica plants in calcareous soil had longer and wider stomata, but with lower density than those in ultramafic soils. In addition, leaf and cuticle thickness were higher in S. celebica plants on calcareous soils. However, the peridemis/floem ratio in stems and peridermis/endodermis in roots did not show significant differences. Overall, S. celebica leaves were more responsive to soil differences than stems and roots. This study is important for understanding the mechanisms of plant adaptation to extreme soil conditions and the implications for the sustainability of the species in its natural habitat.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the morpho-anatomical diversity of pollen from various plant species belonging to the Asteraceae family within the Tadulako University area. Flower samples were collected using an exploration method and prepared for palynological analysis using a modified acetolysis technique. Six Asteraceae species were identified: Tridax procumbens L., Cyanthillium cinereum (L.) H.Rob., Synedrella nodiflora (L.) Gaertn., Eleutheranthera ruderalis (Sw.) Sch.Bip., Porophyllum ruderale (Jacq.) Cass., and Chromolaena odorata (L.) R.M.King & H.Rob. The study revealed significant differences in pollen morphology, particularly in shape (spheroidal), aperture number (3–4 colporates), ornamentation (echinate vs. lophate), and size. Pollen size ranged from 21.29 µm to 35.66 µm (equatorial diameter) and wall thickness ranged from 2.16 µm to 4.82 µm. These variations serve as reliable taxonomic markers for distinguishing species at both genus and species levels. This research provides valuable insights into the biodiversity and evolutionary adaptations of the Asteraceae family and supports the use of palynological data in systematic botany.
