Abstract

Worldwide demand for functional food will continue to increase rapidly due to increasing public awareness about the impact of food on health. One example of functional food is milk-based food which contains probiotic bacteria such as yogurt, cheese, and ice cream. Among probiotic dairy products, ice cream is the ideal matrix delivery of probiotic ingredients to the human body. This study aimed to find the potential of L. plantarum dad 13 in ice cream as a probiotic food through the growth pattern of the resulting lactic acid bacteria and to obtain the best incubation time and aging time for the physicochemical properties of the ice cream produced. The experimental design in this study used a Randomized Block Design (RBD), which was arranged in a factorial manner with 2 factors. The first factor is the length of incubation time which consists of 3 levels, namely 0, 5, and 10 hours; and the second factor is the length of aging which consists of 3 levels, namely 24, 48, and 72 hours. The results showed that the viability of lactic acid bacteria in ice cream with the addition of lactic acid bacteria L. plantarum dad 13 was more influenced by the pH value during the aging process, and there was an interaction between the incubation time and the aging time on the viability of the lactic acid bacteria L. plantarum dad 13 in ice cream, as well as the antioxidant activities, produced.

Abstract

Indonesia is very rich in potential for vegetable cultivation. Vegetables contain a lot of vitamins and minerals. Therefore, people prefer to eat vegetables in a fresh state either as salads or fresh vegetables. However, contamination of pathogenic bacteria is much greater both at the farmer and trader levels. Therefore this study aims to determine the feasibility of consumption and identify bacteria in fresh vegetables in the traditional market of Mataram City. Samples in the form of lettuce, cucumber, cabbage, and long beans were taken from Pagesangan, Kebon Roek, Gunung Sari, and Bertais markets, respectively. The existence of bacteria were detected using traditional method by inoculating samples in agar cultures followed by biochemical testing and Gram staining. Species of bacteria that can be identified from samples are Enterobacter cloacae, Bhanhamella catarrhalis, E-coli, Staphylococus sapropyticus, and Aeromonas hydrophila. Based on the data, long beans from the Bertais market and lettuce from the Pagesangan, Kebon Roek, and Gunung Sari markets are not suitable for consumption because the TPC yield exceeds the consumption quality standard of 105-106 CFU/g.

Abstract

The high value and economic prospects of precious metals, have not been able to cover the environmental, health and social and economic impacts. The conversion of land functions and open pit mining activities as well as the amount of sediment waste causes very significant landscape and environmental changes. This study aims to evaluate the impact of using mercury and cyanide based on the knowledge and experience of actors (miners and gold processors) and the surrounding community on the island of Lombok. Field data collection was carried out by triangulation, namely in-depth interviews with actors and the community, and secondary/reference data from related agencies, especially the health center and several related research results. Gold extraction on the island of Lombok uses two methods which are carried out in stages, namely Amalgamation with mercury in the shelling process and Cyanidation with Potassium Cyanide in the bagging process. The results of the study show that the negative impacts of the mining process are more due to land clearing and miner safety. The impact of gold extraction using mercury is long-term, so it is difficult to identify the impact. Meanwhile, the impact of the use of cyanide is directly felt and seen by the public, especially in terms of decreasing the presence and yield of fish caught in rivers and coasts.

Abstract

Obesity can cause chronic oxidative stress. Oxidative stress occurs when the formation of free radicals is greatly increased or the protective antioxidant mechanisms are disrupted. Previous studies have concluded that there is a relationship between oxidative stress and excess body weight and obesity. One of the products of oxidative stress is malondialdehyde (MDA). This study aims to determine the correlation between malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (LP), and body fat percentage. The subjects were 55 students of the Medical Education Study Program, Faculty of Medicine, University of Mataram, class of 2021. The BMI variable was calculated by dividing body weight (kg) by the square of height (m), waist circumference was measured using a tape measure (cm), and body fat percentage measured by body composition monitor (%). Serum MDA levels were measured using the ELISA method. Data were analyzed statistically with the Spearman correlation test. The results showed that the average MDA level in subjects with overweight and obesity was higher than normal, however there was no significant correlation between body mass index, waist circumference, and body fat percentage with MDA levels, with each significance value :p=0.230; p=0.276; and p=0.666. Body mass index, waist circumference, and body fat percentage cannot be ruled out as risk factors for oxidative stress.

Abstract

Lipase is an enzyme that can be applied in many industrial fields so it has a good economic prospects. The demand for lipase was still unfulfilled at the time this article was written. The character of the lipase for industrial needs are vary depending on the industry in which the enzyme is used. Temperature and pH are the two factors that most influence enzyme activity. This article reports on bacteria isolated from coconut, avocado, tempeh, and areca nut and their lipolytic activity at pH 7-10, 30-40oC. Isolation was carried out on NA media supplemented with olive oil and Rhodamine B as the activity indicator. Colonies showing clear zones were used in subsequent work. Activity tests were carried out on the isolation medium pH 7-10 and incubated at 30 or 40oC. Characterization of isolates includes morphological and microscopic observations; proteolytic and amylolytic capability. There were 41 isolates showing lipolytic activity, 26, 7, 4, and 4 isolates from coconut, tempeh, avocado, and areca nut, respectively. Five isolates were selected for further work. Activity tests showed that the best isolates at 30oC were K1A1 and K1A2 at pH 7, each of which had an activity index of 9% and 107%. Meanwhile, at 40oC the best activity was shown by K10 pH 8 with an activity index of 59%. Based on Grams staining and microscopic analysis, isolates belong to Gram-positive coccus bacteria. Isolate K1A1 showed proteolytic and amylolytic activity, K1A2 showed high proteolytic activity but not amylolytic, while K10 did not show both activities.

Abstract

Cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus L.) is a vegetable plant that has many ingredients which can be used as vegetables, fresh vegetables, salads, or pickles and also cucumber plants can be beneficial for health. Production of cucumber plants in Indonesia from year to year has always decreased. The cause of the low production of cucumber plants in Indonesia is due to several factors, namely environmental factors, cultivation methods and also due to pests and diseases. This study aims to determine and understand the effect of organic and inorganic fertilizers on the growth and production of cucumber plants. The research design used was a randomized block design (RBD) consisting of 5 treatments repeated 3 times, namely 6 kg of goat manure/polybag (P0), 3 kg of goat manure/polybag + 2.5 g of NPK fertilizer/polybag (P1 ), 4.5 kg goat manure/polybag + 1.25 g NPK/polybag (P2), 1.5 kg goat manure/polybag + 3.75 g NPK fertilizer/polybag (P3), 5 g NPK fertilizer/ polybag (P4). The results of the analysis of the variety of application of organic fertilizer at a dose of 6 kg gave optimal results on plant height and number of fruit on cucumber plants but not on the number of leaves, age at the start of flowering, and fruit weight on cucumber plants.
