Abstract

The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize heavy metal tolerant bacteria from an agricultural soil in Ago Iwoye, Ogun Stae, Nigeria. Bacteria were isolated from soil samples collected and screened for tolerance to different concentrations of lead, copper and cadmium. Heavy metal tolerant bacteria were characterized using phenotypic and molecular techniques. All the isolates were able to grow and tolerate different concentration of the heavy metals while four isolates identified as Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Altantibacter hermannii and Enterobacter quasihormaechei exhibited high degree of tolerance to Pb, Cu and Cd with minimum inhibitory concentrations of 1500mg/l of lead,1000mg/l of Cu and 700mg/l of Cd. These results highlighted the high potential of these bacteria as bioremediation tools of heavy metal contaminated soil.Keywords: Heavy metal, tolerance, bacteria, agricultural soil

Abstract

The prevalence of diarrheal illnesses in Indonesia remains a significant concern among children under the age of five, evident through diagnostic findings and symptomatic manifestations, leading to increased rates of mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to identify, isolate, and culture gram-negative bacteria responsible for childhood diarrhea. Twenty stool samples were collected from children under the age of 5 with acute diarrhea in Jakarta health centres and hospitals between October 2023 to January 2024. These samples were inoculated onto selective agars to facilitate the growth of gram-negative bacteria. After a 24-hour incubation period, colonies suspected to be E. coli, K. pneumoniae, Salmonella, Shigella, or Vibrio were identified using the Vitek-2 compact system. The results revealed a notable presence of Gram-negative bacteria in all the fecal samples from diarrheal children, with Escherichia coli (E. Coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (Klebsiella p) as the predominant species. In conclusion, our study, utilizing various cultures and the Vitek-2 compact system, elucidates the microbial landscape driving diarrheal morbidity in Indonesian children under five, with E. Coli and klebsiella pneumoniae emerging as prevalent contributors to childhood diarrhea in this population.

Abstract

Although 3106 termite species have been documented worldwide, little information is available on those in Indonesia. In this review, the Google Scholar search platform was used to obtain information on termite species. From the 34 reviewed sources, they were identified in 4 provinces across Indonesia. Among these sites, we found 106 termite species from the islands of Sumatera, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Java. The most predominant species in all regions were Macrotermes sp, Microtermes sp, and Coptotermes sp.
