Abstract

Currently, the primary source of energy based on fossil fuel, thus promoting both the excessive use of fossil fuel and global warming. Bioethanol provides sustainable energy and serves to reduce the dependence on using fossil fuel. Third-generation bioethanol production from macroalgae provides alternative green energy. To observe the potency of biofuel resources of Chaetomorpha sp. isolated from Pulau Seribu Seawater, the effect of the acid pretreatment was evaluated by using two different acids (H2SO4) concentrations. Powdered Chaetomorpha sp. was prepared, followed by acid pretreatment using H2SO4 1% and 2% (v/v). After 72 hours of fermentation, 1% H2SO4 pretreatment produced 0.026 % of the ethanol from 3 grams of Chaetomorpha sp., whereas pretreatment with H2SO4 2% did not produce bioethanol.

Abstract

Ketersedian tanaman bunga menjadi kunci penting untuk sumber pakan lebah dan madu yang dihasilkan di masyarakat Sumbawa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi jenis jenis tumbuhan bunga yang berpotensi menjadi sumber pakan lebah madu di kawasan hutan, Desa Batu Dulang, Sumbawa. Metode penelitian menggunakan analisis vegetasi dengan petak ukur kuadran yang berukuran 1 m x 1 m. Data tanaman yang diperoleh dianalisis dengan indeks keanaekaragaman Shanon-Wienner (H’), indeks kemerataan Shanon (E’) dan indeks dominansi Simpson (D). Hasil penelitian diperoleh data sebanyak 216 individu tanaman bunga dari 28 spesies tanaman dan terbagi dalam 12 famili. Sebanyak 23 spesies berhasil diidentifikasi, sedangkan 4 spesies belum bisa diidentifikasi. Jenis tanaman bunga terbanyak >10 individu tanaman ditemukan pada 8 spesies dengan tanaman Kirinyuh (Chromolaena odorata) sebagai spesies terbanyak dan 4 spesies tanaman dengan jumlah paling sedikit. Hasil analisis indeks keanekaragaman (H’), kemerataan (E’) dan dominansi (D) tanaman berturut turut yaitu 2.97, 0.89, dan 0.067. Nilai tersebut menunjukkan tingkat keanekaragaman tanaman yang sedang melimpah, kemerataan yang tinggi dan dominansi tanaman yang rendah. Tingginya keanaekaragaman tanaman akan memberikan dampak positif pada ketersediaan sumber pakan lebah madu yang cukup melimpah. Tentu pula harus dengan didukung oleh kondisi hutan yang terjaga kelestariannya dengan melibatkan masyarakat lokal. Penelitian selanjutnya akan difokuskan pada waktu berbunga dari tanaman sumber pakan lebah melalui kalender pembungaan sehingga diketahui tingkat kecukupan pakan bagi lebah dan kuantitas madu yang dihasilkan dalam setahun.

Abstract

Yeast is unicellular eukaryotic microorganism and one of the main resources in of organic compound. The natural compounds produced by yeasts have high commercial value; one of the examples is enzyme. Enzymes are widely used in industrial production processes. The invertase enzyme has the ability to catalyze sucrose, and hydrolyze it into equimolar monosaccharides, D-glucose and D-fructose mixtures called invert sugar. Invertase itself is commonly found in various parts of plants wich has high carbon content. Honey and nectar are compounds that have high carbon contents. Very high glucose and fructose contents show high levels of sucrose hydrolysis, so it is possible to have high levels of invertase enzymes in honey and nectar. This study aims to perform screening of invertase enzyme from yeasts that isolated from the nectar and forest honey and to find out the optimum temperature and pH for the enzyme production. This research was conducted by isolating yeast contained in wild honey and flowers nectar. Then conducted by qualitative test with selective medium and benedict test method. Quantitative test of intervase unit activity measured by DNS method with OD 540 nm. Protein concentration measured by Lowry Method with OD 650 nm. From 47 isolats 16 isolates able for invertase enzymes production. Yeast isolat SG 3.2 unit activity is 0.222 U/ml and specific activity is 7.07 U/mg. Optimum production pH and temperature are 5 and 25°C, respectively.

Abstract

Hutan Lindung Gambut (HLG) Sungai Buluh  is one of the village forests in East Tanjung Jabung. Peat soil has high water content and is herpetofauna habitat. Herpetofauna acts as a prey and predator in the peat ecosystem. Some of them occupy the position of top predators on food networks in the peat ecosystem. The existence of this group of animals also acts as an environmental bioindicator which can be indicated by its species richness and individual count. This research was conducted on two habitat conditions (terrestrial and aquatic) with the aim of this study were the distribution and habitat characteristics of herpetofauna in the HLG Sungai Buluh.  This study used the Visual Encounter Survey (VES) method which was combined by transect lines in each habitat. Sampling was done nocturnal and diurnal. The specimens obtained then preserved in 70% alcohol. The results showed total of 105 individual herpetofauna consisting of 4 Anura families (Bufonidae 1 species, Dicroglossidae 3 species, Rhacophoridae 3 species, and Ranidae 4 species) and 4 Reptile families (Agamidae 3 species, Scincidae 2 species, Gekkonidae 1 species, and Natricidae 1 species). Eleven species were found in the terrestrial habitat transect while eleven species were found in aquatic habitat transects. Furthermore,  four species were found in both habitat transects. From these results it can be concluded that the HLG Sungai Buluh has a suitable habitat for herpetofauna. However, further research needs to be carried out covering the entire are of HLG Sungai Buluh
