Abstract

Diabetes is a degenerative disease whose numbers continue to increase from year to year. Treatment with oral antidiabetic drugs can cause harmful side effects for patients. One of the plants that can be used for diabetes therapy is juwet (Syzygium cumini L.). Flavonoid compounds of juwet seed is easily oxidized and hydrolyzed in intestinal fluids with low absorption. This problem can be overcome by forming nanoparticle of juwet seed extract. The aims of this study was to obtain the formula for juwet seed nanoparticles. Nanoparticle of juwet seed extract made by ionic gelation method with chitosan and Na-TPP polymers which are varied. The formula optimization design in this study was determined using a simplex lattice design by 3 variations of materials based on the parameters %entrapment efficiency, %transmittant, particle size, polydisperse index, and zeta potential. The results showed that the yield of duwet seed extract was 7,44%. Juwet seed ethanolic extract contains 3.33 mg of quercetin per 1 g of extract. Based on the desirability value approach, the optimum formula was produced with an extract composition of 1.650 mL; chitosan 0.500 mL; and Na-TPP 0.010 mL can give optimal results with a desirability value of 0.772 which results in the criteria of 63.66% entrapment efficiency; 50.56% transmittant; 615,833nm particle size; 0.620 PDI; and zeta potential of +13.89 mV. Juwet seeds extract can be formulated into the form of nanoparticles. To get better parameters, it is advisable to optimize the mixing time and mixing speed in the ionic gelation method.

Abstract

The Pandanduri Dam has a function as a support for agricultural irrigation water and also supports community activities so that it will affect the quality of its waters. The quality of the water needs to be analyzed because it can affect the aquatic ecosystem. This study aims to determine the level of water pollution in the Pandanduri Dam based on the phytoplankton community from the Chlorophyta Division. This type of research is descriptive exploratory. Sampling was carried out at 5 stations that were haphazardly selected with ecological representativeness consideration. Phytoplankton data were analyzed using the abundance formula, Shannon-Wiener diversity index, PIELOU uniformity index, and Simpson dominance index. The phytoplankton from the Chlorophyta Division found in the Pandanduri Dam were 14 species that are Pediastrum duplex var. Gracillimum, Gonium sp. 1, Gonium sp. 2, Coelastrum reticulatum, Scenedesmus acuminatus, Cosmarium sp., Chlamydomonas nasuta, Chlamydomonas sp., Selenastrum capricornutum, Monoraphidium dybowskii, Monoraphidium contortum, Monoraphidium irregular, Westella botryoides, and Kirchneriella lunaris consisting of 4 orders (Sphaeropleales, Chlorococcales, Chlamydomonadales and Desmidiales) and 10 genera (Pediastrum, Coelastrum, Scenedesmus, Gonium, Cosmarium, Chlamydomonas, Selenastrum, Monoraphidium, Westella, and Kirchneriella). The species diversity index of 2.21 is classified as moderate diversity, the species uniformity index is 0.83 which indicates even species growth, and the species dominance index indicates that no species dominates with a value of 0.12. The level of water pollution in the Pandanduri Dam was found in the moderate pollution category (oligotrophic).

Abstract

Oryzias woworae is one of Muna Island's endemic fish, Sulawesi, which needs to be developed in cultivation and can be used as ornamental fish with high economic value. However, information on fish farming is not yet well available, especially at egg incubation temperatures. This study aims to determine the optimal temperature of the incubation water medium for the hatching performance of O. woworae eggs. The study used experimental methods with the treatment of differences in egg incubation temperatures at 24-26°C (temperature fluctuations in the laboratory), 24°C, 28°C and 32°C. The research parameters were analyzed descriptively, namely embryogenesis, hatching time, and hatching rates. The results showed that differences in incubation temperature affected the embryogenesis of O. woworae eggs. The obtained fastest time for hatching eggs O. woworae at a temperature of 32°C with six days 5 hours 49 minutes and 100% hatching. The egg incubation temperature 24-26°C is the lowest hatching time and hatching rate, nine days 11 hours 38 minutes and 53.33%. The use of 32°C in the incubation medium is the optimal temperature to accelerate embryogenesis and the hatching rate of O. woworae eggs.

Abstract

One of the factors that affect the colour quality of the platy fish (Xyphophorus helleri) during cultivation is the environment in bright light conditions, where setting bright light conditions can be done using a tank with a colour that can absorb light. Therefore, a study was conducted to examine the effect of tank colour on improving the colour quality of the platy fish and determining the correct tank colour. This research was conducted with an experimental method using a completely randomized design (CRD) consisting of five treatments repeated three times. The colour treatments of the tanks used were white, black, red, orange and yellow. The parameters observed were the increase in colour, growth in absolute weight and length and survival rate of platy fish. The results showed that the use of different tank colours had a significant effect (p <0.05%) on the improvement of colour quality and growth in absolute weight, and had no significant effect (p> 0.05) on absolute length growth and survival rate. The highest increase in colour quality was in white tanks with brightness values ranging from 13-15% and absolute weight growth ranging from 0.21 to 0.25 g. Therefore, in the cultivation of platy fish, a white tank should be used.

Abstract

Coral reef ecosystems in the marine environment have a vital role, especially in providing habitat for the diversity of commercial and non-commercial fish species. This study aims to assess the species richness of coral reef fish based on the complexity of the habitat of Sangiang Island, Bima Regency. The data collection method used Underwater Visual Census on the belt transect, and the habitat complexity value is determined by the chain intercept transect method. Data analysis used Shannon-Wiener Index Diversity (H '), Abundance (Ki), and Habitat complexity (C). Next is a simple regression analysis between habitat complexity as the independent variable and fish abundance as the dependent variable. In this study, 106 species were found and covering 24 families. The three fish families, Pomacentridae, Labridae, and Lutjanidae, are the most dominant of the other families. Meanwhile, the diversity index ranged from 1.874-2.753 with an average value of ± SD 2.35 ± 0.317, and the abundance value ranged from 0.774-2.528 individuals/m2 with an average value of ± SD 1.505 individuals / m2 ± 0.745. Furthermore, the analysis showed that hábitate complexity had a significant effect on fish abundance. The coefficient of determination (R2) of 80% can explain the relationship of habitat complexity to fish abundance in the study location. This study concludes that coral reef habitat complexity is a determining factor for the level of fish diversity and abundance in the study area. Therefore, the protection of coral habitat is a strategy for the protection of coral reef fish resources.

Abstract

Drosophilla melanogaster is a modern experimental organism in the field of genetics because it has different phenotypic characters and looks real, easy to get, cheap (can be bred in bottles containing only fermented banana media) and has a breeding time that is not too long (2 weeks with maturation time) initial sexual ie 7 hours after exiting the pupa). This study aims to differentiate male and female fruit flies, create growth media for fruit fly culture and observe the phenotype ratio of F1 monohibrid crosses. The method used is the crossing of fruit flies by inserting male fruit flies and female fruit flies into a jam jar containing the medium using fermipan and not using fermipan. The phenotype and sex of fruit flies are formed from crossing of fruit flies. The results obtained in the form of fruit flies at most can grow on agar media and added corn flour with yeast. The medium needed by fruit flies to grow is a medium rich in protein and not much water dense. The media with corn flour is strong enough to resist thawing caused by larval activity, so that many larvae are found. Based on these conclusions, it can be continued observation of the fruit fly's politen chromosome in the next research.

Abstract

Mosquito-borne diseases include tropical diseases such as malaria, filariasis, dengue fever, chikungunya, yellow fever and cerebral fever are still major health problems in Indonesia and on a global scale. Various methods have been used to overcome this, including controlling vector mosquitoes using the entomopathogenic microbial Lysinibacillus sphaericus. This study aims to identify bacterial isolates collected based on the 16S rRNA gene and to carry out the pathogenicity test of the bacterial isolates collected on Cx. quinquefasciatus larvae. Bacterial isolates used in this study were collected from root soil, bird droppings and guano. The identification of the type of bacteria was carried out based on the 16S rRNA gene fragment. Based on the results of the 16S RNA sequence analysis of isolates 229C, 6B4, 6.2 and 4D21, it was found that the four isolates were included in the L. sphaericus species with similarity scores ranging from 97% to 100%. The pathogenicity of bacteria was measured based on the mortality of Cx. quinquefasciatus larvae to know whether it has pathogenicity equal to or higher than strain 1593. The pathogenicity test results of 6 isolates 15.4, 229C, 1593, 6B4, 6.2 and 4D21 showed that isolate 15.4 has the highest larval mortality rate, so it is potentially used as a biological agent to control disease vector mosquitoes.
