Abstract

DNA preparation from C. capsici dan C. gleosporides is important for PCR based analysis of anthracnose causingpathogens. On the other hand, RAPD as one of DNA-based fingerprinting is hindered by its instability and its nonspecifity problems. For that reason, converting RAPD fragments into other DNA based systems is an alternative toincrease its analysis reliability. The study showed that mycelia grown in 2-days liquid culture is appropriate materialfor DNA preparation especially when combined with Shagai-Maroof protocol as well as Promega Genomic DNAIsolation Kit. The study indicated also that some isolated RAPD-fragments showed its instability character. Thiswas proved by the occurrence of multi different length of fragments after re-amplification of some single RAPDspecific fragments.

Abstract

Mixed lactic acid bacteria culture is commonly used in yogurt production. In the present study, two lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophillus) was used as starter culture. Calcium carbonate was added to the starter culture to increase the quality of mixed starter culture of L. bulgaricus and S. thermophillus with ratio of 4:1. The present study was directed to investigate the chemical composition of mixed starter culture with and without calcium carbonat addition. Furthermore, the effect of each starter culture on yogurt product chemical composition was also examined. The pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content was determined as chemical composition parameters. For starter culture without calcium carbonate addition, the yogurt has pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content of 4.18–4.39, 4.18–4.39% w/v, 2.88–4.36% w/v and 0.82–0.99% w/v, respectively. While for starter culture with calcium carbonate addition, the yogurt product has pH, lactose, soluble protein and acid content of 4.26–4.37, 1.47–1.75% b/v, 3.42–4.95% w/v and 0.86–1.11% w/v, respectively. Addition of 0.05% w/v calcium carbonate to mixed starter culture gave effect on lactose consumption, where it still can convert lactose to lactic acid up to 45 days of storage. Furthermore, the yogurt product made with starter culture with calcium carbonate addition has higher soluble protein content compared to yogurt made with starter culture without calcium carbonate addition

Abstract

The effects of cadmium(II) and nickel(II) ions to copper(II) extraction using liquid membrane emulsion with 4-benzoyl-3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-on (HPMBP) as an extractant was studied. The optimum condition forcopper(II) extraction were as follows: emulsification rate=2000 rpm, emulsification time=10 minutes, extractionrate=300 rpm, extraction time=15 minutes, concentration of mixed surfactant (span 80+span 20)=3%, volumeratio of membrane phase and internal phase=1:1, concentration of HPMBP=0.020 M, concentration of HCl=1M,volume ratio of emulsion and external phase=1:7. The result showed that the extraction of copper(II) by liquidmembrane emulsion with HPMBP as an extractant was selective to cadmium(II) and nickel(II) ions, relatively. Theresult also showed that in the extraction of 500 mg/l copper(II), the presence of 500 mg/l of nickel(II) was decreasingthe percentage of copper(II) extraction to be 83.73. While, the presence of 500 mg/l of cadmium(II) does notinfluence the percentage extraction of copper(II), relatively.

Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the species diversity of lepidoptera egg parasitoids on several crops in Solok. lepidopteran eggs were collected from rice, corn, tomato, and cabbage. A survey was conducted by using Stratified Purposive Sampling Method. Two districts (Gunung Talang and Lembah Gumanti) were chosen as centre of the target crops. The results showed that five species of egg parasitoids were found parasitizing lepidopteran eggs. The species found on rice were Telenomus sp., Tetrastichus sp., and Trichogramma japonicum parasitizing Scirpophaga incertulas and Hesperiidae with parasitization levels were 29.54; 13.02; and 2.05% respectively. The species found on corn was Trichogrammatoidea spp. parasitizing Helicoverpa armigera with parasitization level was 29.07%. None of parasitoid was found to parasitize eggs of H. armigera on tomato. The egg parasitoid parasitizing Crocidolomia pavonana and Spodoptera litura on cabbage was Trichogramma chilotrae with parasitization level was 1.67%. The most abundance species of lepidopteran egg parasitoids were Telenomus sp.and Trichogrammatoidea sp. The diversity index of egg parasitoids on rice in different sample areas varied from 0.46 to 0.63 based on Simpsons index. It indicated that the species diversity of lepidopteran eggs was relatively low.

Abstract

Wax esters are long chain esters that are derived from fatty acids and alcohols with chain lengths of 12 carbons or more. Wax esters havea wide range of application in industrial especially in cosmetics. The present work focuses on the synthesis of wax esters by alcoholysisreaction from palm oil and oleyl alcohol in hexane by lipase from Rhizomucor meihei (Lipozyme IM). Effect of various concentrations ofpalm oil and oleyl alcohol were studied to deduce the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction. The alcoholysis reaction followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. The reaction follows a Ping-pong Bi-Bi mechanism. The maximum rate was estimated to be 6 x 10 -3 mmol/h. mg catalystand the Michaelis-Menten constant for palm oil and oleyl alcohol were 4.145 M and 6.120 M, respectively.

Abstract

Protease has been used in large application industrial process such as detergent, leather, textil, softdrink, andmedicine. In order to find unique protease, many substances were explored as proteases of bacteria sources. Inthis study, tofu liquid waste was used as a source of bacteria producing proteases. Waste sample was growth inskim milk agar medium showing proteases activity, it was used to produce extracellular protease. The microbialcolonies were identified as Staphyllococcus sp. Protease was extracted with 5000 g centrifugation at 4 0C, andpurificated with ammonium sulphate precipitation continued with dialisis. Optimum production time, pH, metal ion,EDTA, specific activity, KM, and Vmaks were studied for enzyme characterization. Volume of crude enzyme was 300ml, with spesific activity of 3.55 U/mg. Protease obtained from 60% ammonium sulphate fraction had the highestspecific activity of 68.22 U/mg. Study on the protease characterization revealed that optimum temperature of thisenzyme was 400C. The optimum pH of the enzyme was found to be 8.0. The kinetic parameters K M dan Vmaks withcasein as substrate were 0.31% and 51.55 U/ml. Some inhibitory effect was observed in the presence of EDTA, Cu +2,Co+2, Zn+2, and enzyme activity was stimulated by Mg+2, indicating that this ion had a functional role in the molecularstructure of the enzyme.

Abstract

The need of â-glucan is increasing in food, medicine and cosmetic industry, because it becomes anticancer,antitumor and antiaging, increases immunosystem, and decreases cholesterol content in blood. The cell walls ofS. cerevisiae contain 80-90% polysaccharides that posses â-glucan. This research was aimed to obtain appropriatecarbon sources to increase the production of â-glucan. The carbon sources used were glucose, glucose commercial,sucrose and molases. The fermentation process was done by using air lift fermentor. The steps of fermentatonincluded regeneration of S. cerevisiae strain, preculture, fermentor preparation and running fermentor for 84hours. Sampling of S. cerevisiae culture was determined the cell growth by optical density (OD) usingspectrophotometer UV/VIS at ë 550 nm. The protein content was determined by Lowry method at ë 755 nm and thetotal glucose was measured by phenol sulphate method at ë 490 nm. The measurement result of cell growthshowed that the high intensity of S. cerevisiae in medium contain molases, but it did not show significant effectwhen compare to other carbon sources. The protein and carbohydrate contain in medium tended to decrease. Theresult of â-glucan on glucose, sucrose, glucose commercial and molases were 933,3, 1100, 1000, and966,7 mg/l. It can be concluded that sucrose and glucose commercial can replace the glucose to produce of â-glucan, because they are cheaper and easier to get. Beside that, molases can be used as an alternative carbonsource because it can produce of â-glucan as well as glucose.
