Abstract

Plants are the main medicinal source that exists around the world, due to the content of bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, polyphenols, tannins, terpenoids, and essential oils. These bioactive compounds have antimicrobial activity. The purpose of this study was to analyze the antibacterial activity of a combination extracts of Sumatran wild mango (M. sumatrana, and M. foetida var. Batu), R. tuberosa L.  and Leucobryum sp. against bacteria that cause gangrene wounds in diabetics. Preparation of plant extraction is carried out by the method of maceration using 70% alcohol. Testing of antibacterial activity using the disc paper method 6 mm in diameter at an extract concentration of 10% with seven treatments (P1-P7). The test results obtained the largest inhibitory zone diameter against Staphyococcus aureus ATCC 6538 and S. epidermidis ATCC 12228 both shown in combination II extracts at P7 treatment (2:3:1 ratio), 9.04±1.42 mm and 8.85±0.21 mm, respectively. The results of the inhibitory zone resulting from the combination extract test included criteria of resistance to Staphylococcus. In the positive control, the diameter of the chloramphenicol inhibition zone against S. aureus belongs to the sensitive category, but to S. epidermidis it belongs to the resistant category. Combination of methanol extract from wild mango, R. tuberosa L and Leucobryum sp. has the opportunity as the candidate for natural-based antibiotics to replace synthetic antibiotics.

Abstract

Administratively, the coastal area of Central Lombok Regency is included in the mangrove conservation program which is currently in the process of rehabilitation. Shellfish as one of the associated biota that live in the mangrove ecosystem. This study aims to analyze the diversity (H'), uniformity (E), dominance (D), and abundance (R) of associated biota in the mangrove ecosystem conservation area on the south coast of Central Lombok Regency. Data analysis consisted of determining sampling stations, processing mangrove vegetation data, processing bivalve data, and environmental parameters. The results showed that there were nine types of mangroves, 15 types of bivalves were found. The highest density of mangroves in Dondon was Avicennia marina (84.16%) and the highest relative frequency of mangrove species (66.67%). The lowest mangrove density in Gili Perigi was Rhizophora stylosa (3.1%) and the lowest relative species frequency (6.67%). Furthermore, the highest relative frequency in Tanjung Batutiang is Avicennia marina (30.00%) and the lowest is Avicennia lanata (3.33). While the highest relative frequency in Gili Perigi was Avicennia marina (50.00%) and the lowest was Rhizopora stylosa (6.67%). The highest value of the dominance index on the Dondon Coast was 0.84 and was classified as low, meaning that no species dominated. In conclusion, the Indonesian government has initiated many mangrove Rehabilitation programs through replanting, especially on Lombok Island. This study shows that members of the genus Avicennia marina have the potential to increase the growth and stability of mangrove ecosystems on the south coast of Central Lombok.

Abstract

Medicinal plants are a good source of therapeutic drugs because they contain phytochemical compounds. Cat's whiskers (Orthosiphon stamineus) and miana (Coleus artropurpureus) are plants that are widely used as herbal medicines. However, there are no studies related to toxicology to ensure its safety. The aim of this study was to determine the toxicity of 96% ethanol extract of cat whiskers and miana leaves to shrimp (Artemia salina Leach) larvae. Toxicity test was carried out using the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method with 48 hours old Artemia salina shrimp larvae. The concentration of the extract used was 1 ppm, 2 ppm, 3 ppm, 4 ppm and 5 ppm. The results of the toxicity test showed that the 96% ethanol extract of cat's whiskers leaves had an LC50 value of 8.0855 ppm, while the 96% ethanol extract of miana leaves had an LC50 value of 4.7067 ppm. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that cat's whiskers and miana leaves have the potential to be developed as candidates for anticancer drugs.

Abstract

Pigments and chlorophyll are essential for the process of photosynthesis and are characteristic of each species of phytoplankton. This study aims to provide an overview of the pigment quantification method and its potential to identify and estimate biomass of phytoplankton. A literature review has been carried out to identify methods for the extraction and quantification of phytoplankton. The results of the study found that there are at least two main methods most commonly used for the extraction and quantification of phytoplankton, namely spectrophotometric analysis and HPLC. Spectrophotometric is considered a good and practical method for estimating chlorophyll. However, the HPLC has also become the main method for investigating the taxonomic composition of phytoplankton populations. The researchers concluded that there was no significant difference in results between two methods. Spectrophotometric analysis is much cheaper and faster than HPLC, make it a good tool for routine evaluation of chlorophyll. However, the use of HPLC has been proven to be the most appropriate for determining concentration of various pigments in the community of phytoplankton. Regardless of the various advantages and disadvantages of both methods, a good understanding of each method should be a concern in terms of selecting the method to be used according to its designation.

Abstract

The effect of nutrient deficiency on plants can cause a decrease in plant growth and productivity. The decrease in biomass production is related to the decrease in photosynthesis rate caused by the inhibition of chlorophyll synthesis process. This study aims to determine the chlorophyll content of kale (Ipomoea aquatica) that experienced nutrient deficiencies. The type of research used is an experiment using a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The treatment given was the provision of nutrient solutions: complete, -Ca, -S, -Mg, -K, -N, -P, Fe, -Micronutrients, distilled water and water. The solvent used for maceration was DMSO. The parameters observed were chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll content of kale leaves. The results showed that the complete solution had the highest total chlorophyll content of 6.387 mg/L. While the distilled water solution has the lowest total chlorophyll content of 2.982 mg/L. The complete solution has all the nutrients needed by plants so that the growth and development process can run optimally, characterized by high chlorophyll content.

Abstract

Mangrove is an ecosystem that has a wealth of macrofauna, which includes plant species and biota associated therein, gastropods and bivalves associated with mangroves as living habitat, shelter, spawning and food supply. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of macrofauna associated with mangrove species. This research is a quantitative descriptive research with a survey method. The results showed that the diversity of gastropods and bivalves on the gastropod Cemara beach was 2.05. Bivalvia 1.22. Meanwhile in Bagek Kembar. Gastropods 1.73 and bivalvia 1.32 have relatively low diversity. The results of the analysis using the contingency table at the study site were 8 pairs from the Gastropod class and 4 pairs from the Bivalvia class, these pairs tended to associate at the 5% test level. The macrofauna and mangrove species pairs obtained had a positive association of 6 pairs, namely (Telescopium -Avicennia lanata, Terebralia sulcata -Avicennia lanata, Cerithideacingulata-Rhizophora mucronata, Cerithidea cingulata-Avicennia marina, Cerithideacingulata-Sonneratia caseolaris, Batillaria zonalis -Rhizophora stylosa) whereas in class bivalves there are 4 pairs (Anadara antiquata -Avicennia lanata, Anadara antiquata -Ceriops decandra, Gafrarium pectinatum -Avicennia lanata, Lutraria lutraria-Rhizophora mucronata). This pair of macrofauna with mangrove species shows a close relationship between the two. For future mangrove planting, it can be used as a benchmark by looking at macrofauna and mangrove pairs that are positively associated.
