Abstract

Phytoremediation is known as one of the bioremediation techniques which may remove, stabilize, and/or destroy contaminants in the media. This study was aiming at collecting evidence of phytoremediation, which was applied with the addition of compost. Jarak Kepyar (Ricinus communis L.) was selected for this study because its seeds highly potency as biodiesel raw materials. Laboratory research scale was prepared, and the experiment design was complete random design with three replications. The experiment design was a full random design with three replications. The treatments were mixed contaminated soil (contaminated soil: compost = 3:1) and R. communis; and mixed garden soil (soil:compost=3:1) and R. communis; and contaminated soil without compost and R. communis. The statistical t-Test with a range of confidence at 95% showed that the phytoremediation significantly removed the Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) at 97.7%. TPH accumulations were detected in roots and shoot ranged from 3377.6 mg/kg to 3555.0 mg/kg. R. communis leave development was the most sensitive indicator to biotoxicity of the hydrocarbons in the soils.

Abstract

This reseach will describe and explain the overall the characteristics of safety leadership in PT. RND, Jakarta-Surabaya in 2012 with in-depth interviews and direct observation for the leaders in PT. RND conducted in April-June 2012. Implementation of safety given by the supervisor 3, although the decision-making for implementation of safety continue through the director. Disengagement supervisor and team leader of safety programs in the field resulted in the implementation of safety systems are not effective in PT. RND. The leaders in PT. RND do not have the perspective of safety which is reflected in their personality, leadership style and best practices in leading employees to implement safety effectively. The results of this research obtained personality, which is owned by the leaders of PT. RND is still not optimal on the characteristics of emotional resilience.

Abstract

Essential oils are oils derived from plants that are aromatic. Numeg leaves are part of plant that containing essential oil. Each of essential oils from different plants will have different physical properties. In this study, the essential oil is produced using steam distillation method. The purpose of this study was to determine the physical properties of essential oils of nutmeg leaves South Aceh. The physical properties of essential oils can be evaluated from the percentage of moisture content, ash content, aroma, color, and rendemen. The results showed that the essential oil of nutmeg leaves are pale yellow, has a characteristic smell of nutmeg, the percentage of moisture content and ash, viscosity, density is respectively 6.8%, 2.1%, 0.4% yield density, 3.8 P, 0576 g/cm3. The essential oil of nutmeg leaves South Aceh can be used as pharmaceuticals. But the density of leaf nutmeg oil does not comply with ISO Standard.

Abstract

The aims of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of fungi associated with coral. The fungi was cultured by streak plate method on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and reisolated with the same medium and were stored in slant agar for identified with morphological approach. Antibacterial activity fungi associated with coral was tested using overlay method against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Based on morphological analysis, five fungi were identified as Candidasp., Fusariumsp., Cladophialophorasp., Phaeoacremoniumsp., and Trichophytonsp. The antibacterial assay showed that Phaeoacremoniumsp. and Trichophytonsp. has antibacterial activity and potential as source of antibacterial for futher study.

Abstract

Research on mangrove species diversity in the village of Tanjung Rejo Percut Sei Tuan district in North Sumatra was held in June-September 2012 which aims to determine mangrove vegetation species diversity, species density, frequency and dominance of mangrove species. Primary data obtain by sampling and direct observation by making the observation plots at the study site. Observations indicate that 14 mangrove species classified into eight families. Values of density, frequency and dominance for the highest level of the tree, and the seedling pacang contained on Avicenniaceae. Mangrove species diversity to the next level of the tree is 0.80 and the 1.38 level pacang 1.88 seedlings. The range indicates the diversity of mangrove species is low.

Abstract

Cervical cancer is the second major cancer, after breast cancer, for childbearing age women. The are many new cases of cervical cancer in which 50% resulted in the patient death. Cervical cancer can be cured if detected quickly. IVA is a simple method that is able to be used for early detection in “Puskesmas”, relatively fast and accurate. The objectives of this study was to determine the perception of childbearing age women towards IVA for early detection of cervical cancer in “ Kelurahan Helvetia Tengah, Kecamatan Medan Helvetia. This research used qualitative design based on case study approach. There were 11 people samples (10 women of childbearing age and 1 person, a Helvetia health center employee. The results showed that the fertile women in Helvetia village had a positive perception about IVA for early detection of cervical cancer. However, they were reluctant to check IVA because afraid of the diseases. The conclusion is that clear information of IVA and cervical cancer is very important thing that should be understood by the childbearing age women.

Abstract

The research aim was get the best medium combination of IBA dan BA to stimulated formation number of shoots of banana Barangan. The study used factorial experiment aranged in Completely Randomized Desigh (CRD). The treatment consisted of 2 factors. The frist factor was the IBA concentration, consisted of three levels 0,0 mg/l, 0,5 mg/l, and 1,0 mg/l. The second factor was BA concentration consisted of four level, 0,0 mg/l, 1,5 mg/l, 3,0 mg/l, and 4,5 mg/l. The result showed that combinations of IBA 0,0 mg/l and BA 0,5 mg/l was the best medium to induce shoot multiplication with 4,00 shoots explant. IBA concentrations had no significant effect on number of shoots. However, the IBA concentation affected the number of root explant.

Abstract

Leaves of sangitan (Sambucus javanica Reinw) are often found but noticed. The leaf part of the sangitan plant is used to treat swelling, insecticides, antidiarrheal, antiinfectives, wounds, smoothing the skin as it contains flavonoid chemical compounds, glycosides, anthracton glycosides, saponins, steroids / triterpenoids and tannins. Screening results of ethanol extract of sour leaves (SambucusjavanicaReinw) contain alkaloid compounds, flavonoids, glikosida, antrakinon glycosides, saponins, steroids / triterpenoids and tannins. The extraction of sangitan leaves was done by maceration using 96% ethanol. Examination of antibacterial activity of ethanol extract of sangitan leaves was done in vitro by diffusion method of wells with concentrations of 500, 400, 300, 200 and 100 mg / ml. This study used cotrimosazole as a comparator and 96% ethanol as a negative control. The extract of ethanol leaves sangitan showed anti bacterial activity against bacteria Eschericia coli and Salmonella thypi at concentration 500 mg / ml respectively 16,11 mm and 17,04 mm which is classified strong but when compared with antibiotic cotrimosazole 10 mg / ml visible diameter of inhibit ethanol extract Leaves sangitan still much lower that is 30,35 mm in bacterium Eschericia coli and 33,15 mm in Salmonella thypi bacteria whereas ethanol extract do not show inhibitory power.
