Abstract

The coastal area of Peh Pulo Beach, located in the Blitar Regency, has a high potential for biodiversity, including macroalgae. This research aims to understand the community structure and diversity of macroalgae at Peh Pulo Beach. The sampling was conducted on August 2023 using the 1 x 1 m quadrant transect method. Macroalgae were collected at three observation stations, with three plots observed at each station. Abiotic environmental parameters measured included temperature, salinity, pH, light intensity, and substrate. The results of macroalgae identification at Peh Pulo Beach reveal 21 species belonging to 16 genera and 14 families. These species were classified into Chlorophyta (9 species), Phaeophyta (4 species), and Rhodophyta (8 species). The Shannon Diversity Index value obtained is 2.84, indicating that the macroalgae diversity along the coast of Peh Pulo falls under the moderate category.

Abstract

Obesity is a major risk factor for several chronic diseases and is a major health and economic burden on society. The FTO gene (Fat and Mass Obesity associated) was identified as a gene that has an influence on the incidence of obesity according to Genome-wide Association Studies. Examination of the FTO gene polymorphism rs9939609 using 15 samples of obese subjects and 15 samples of non-obese subjects at Prodia Pusat Jakarta employees. This study used descriptive research to describe the polymorphism or variation of the FTO (Fat mass and obesity-associated) gene rs9939609 in obese and non-obese objects among Prodia Pusat Jakarta employees. In this study, non-obese subjects obtained 100% AT allele results. This indicates that genetically there is a potential risk factor for obesity. In obese subjects, 60% of the TT alleles were found. Genetically it should not be a risk allele for the risk of obesity. This can be caused by lifestyle or diet. In this study, an AA allele of 6.67% was found, indicating a greater risk of obesity. From the study, it was concluded that the percentage of the FTO gene polymorphism rs9939609 in obese and non-obese subjects in Prodia Pusat Jakarta employees was the AT allele 100% for obese subjects and for obese subjects. non-obese subject of 33.33%. The AA allele is 6.67% for obese subjects, and the TT allele is 60% for obese subjects.

Abstract

The food crisis is a condition when acute food hazards and net malnutrition increase sharply. One reason is due to a slowdown in food production. In 1627, a new farming method was known, called hydroponics, namely the method of growing with the help of water. After further investigation, it was found that the cultivation method with water will eventually produce plants that are as good as plants grown using soil media. Therefore, this research will explore the benefits of using hydroponic media in leek cultivation. In this study, there were two containers, the first container was not subject to the application of pesticides, while the second container was watered with onion peel vegetable pesticides twice a week. The results of the leek planting experiment in the hydroponic system and media showed that the maximum height achieved by the leek plants tested was as high as 22.8 cm, and only 3 out of 17 total plants died.

Abstract

The accumulation of plastic waste is one of the main problems being faced by various countries in the world. The nature of plastic which is not easily degraded naturally will consequently be buried in the soil so that it will gradually change the soil components. Plastic belongs to a group of multifunctional complex polymers which have become conventional products in all sectors of life. The use of plastic on a large scale has an effect on increasing the amount of waste, such as the types of High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) and Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) plastics. This study aims to obtain indigenous bacterial isolated from various soil samples in the landfill area and mangrove forests in Surabaya on the degree of degradation of HDPE and LDPE plastic polymers. Two places namely the final disposal site (TPA) and the Keputih bamboo forest in Surabaya. Sampling at landfill sites and mangrove forests. Then isolate the bacteria from soil samples and plastic waste obtained. Next, purification and screening of HDPE and LDPE polymer plastic degrading bacteria. The results of the isolation succeeded in obtaining 19 types of isolates that can grow on media containing plastic, with the majority having the characteristics of bacilli, Gram negative, catalase positive, capable/incapable of fermenting glucose and lactose and having cell sizes between 1-5 µm. Screening test results obtained that isolate 2 (K1D2U2 KPH) isolated from the Keputih Final Disposal Site (TPA) was identified as a Bacillus sp., with HDPE degradation ability of 27.13% and Isolate 17 (K2D3U1 MWJ) which was isolated from the Wonorejo mangrove forest was identified as a Pseudomonas sp. with LDPE degradation ability of 21.64%. Keywords: Plastics, HDPE, LDPE, Pseudomonas sp. and Bacillus sp.

Abstract

Pathogenic insects such as Asilidae or robber flies can eat other insects, causing a decrease in the number of insect populations, namely grasshoppers. Decreasing the locust population will have a positive impact on the agricultural ecosystem. Research to determine the effect of Asilidae on decreasing grasshopper populations in agricultural ecosystems. The research method was carried out in a meta-analysis using references from theories relevant to the research. Meta analysis is a quantitative analysis using certain data to obtain information from 5 accredited articles. The results of the study showed that flies are small to very large (body length: 4–65 mm; wing length: 4–40 mm), are predatory, eat other insects on their wings. The results of the research that has been done show that there is an influence of Asilidae insects on the decline in locust populations in agricultural ecosystems.

Abstract

Aeromonas hydrophila bacteria can cause Motile Aeromonas Septicemia (MAS), a disease that impacts freshwater fish. The turmeric rhizome contains numerous bioactive compounds that act as antibacterials and might be utilized to inhibit A. hydrophila. This research aimed to identify the phytochemicals in turmeric (Curcuma domestica) infusion, evaluate its antibacterial activity against A. hydrophila, and define the toxicity effect of turmeric rhizome infusion. The agar dilution method was used to measure antibacterial activity, whereas the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) was used to assess toxicity. The research confirmed the presence of phytochemicals such as tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, and saponins in a turmeric rhizome infusion. According to the findings, the infusion from turmeric rhizome effectively inhibited the growth of A. hydrophila at concentrations between 750-1000 ppm. In toxicity tests, the LC50 value of the turmeric rhizome infusion against shrimp larvae was 381.18 ppm. Hence, the turmeric rhizome infusion has the potential to be further developed for the prevention and treatment of fish infected with A. hydrophila in freshwater fish farming.
