Abstract

Co/Sm multilayer films with structure of 20 [Co (x nm)/Sm (1.2 nm)] where x = 1.1, 2.2 and 4.2 nm and 20[Co (4.2nm)/Sm (x nm)] where x=1.2 nm to 7.5 nm were fabricated using dc magnetron sputtering. Each multilayer filmconsisted of 20 bilayers of Co layers with various thicknesses sandwiched with Sm layers. The application of lowangle X-ray diffraction measurements to the characterization of these multilayers is described. The periodiclayered structure with sharp interfaces was observed for all multilayer films. The measured magnetization valuesare lower than the values calculated in terms of the nominal concentration of cobalt in the multilayers. This impliessignificant “mixing” at small film thickness. The formation of a high magneto crystalline anisotropy of CoSm alloyat the interfaces, as a result of interdiffusion between Co and Sm layers was considered to be responsible for theincrease of the coercivity for Co/Sm multilayer.

Abstract

The leaves of Erythrina variegata (Leguminosae) used tradisional plant of an antimalarial. In the course of our continuing search for novel an antimalarial compound from Erythrina plants, the methanol extract of the leaves ofE. variegata showed significant antimalarial activity in vitro toward Plasmodium falciparum in vitro using the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) method. The methanol extract of the leaves of E. variegata showed against bothstrains of parasite with IC50of 6.8 ?g/ml against K1 and > 60 ?g/ml against 3D7, respectively. The methanol extract of the leaves of E. variegata was separated by using bioassay-guide fractionation. The n-buthanol fraction yieldedthe most activity, exhibiting equipotency against both strains of parasite with IC50of 5.1 ?g/ml against K1 and 13.5 ?g/ml against 3D7, respectively. Furthermore, by using the antimalarial activity to follow separation, the n-buthanol fraction was separated by combination of column chromatography to yield an active compound. The active compound showed antimalarial activity against both strains of parasite used with IC50 of 4.3 ?g/ml against K1 and 23.5 ?g/ml against 3D7, respectively. Its inhibition of the resistant strain (K1) was also much better compared to its inhibition of the sensitive strain (3D7), indicated that the leaves of E. variegata to be potential as antimalarial agents, but its lower potency compared to artemisinin and chloroquin.

Abstract

Improvement of selected induction culture media on callus induction in anther culture of anthurium and a histologicalstudy on its callus formation were studied at the tissue culture laboratory of the Indonesian Ornamental CropsResearch Institute from February to October 2008. The objectives of the study were to optimize selected media forcallus formation, reveal cell origin of callus derived from anther culture and shoot formation process. Selectedmedia improved in the study were 1) MMS-TBN containing 0,5 mg/l TDZ, 1,0 mg/l BAP and 0,01 mg/l NAA (Winartomedium, WM) and 2) MMS III supplemented with 1,5 mg/l TDZ, 0,75 mg/l BAP and 0,02 mg/l NAA (Winarto andRachmawati medium, WRM). Improvement treatments were carried out by omission and application of 2,4-D in 0.5mg/l and reduction of medium strength of full, half, quarter, one eighth, one sixteenth, and zero strength. Afactorial experiment was arranged using a randomized complete block design with four replications. Results ofthis study indicated that the highest callus induction was clearly established in WRM. The medium stimulatedpotential growth of anther (PGA) up to 81% with 49% of percentage of anther regeneration (PAR) and 2.7 number ofcallus formed per replication (NCF). Significant improvement in callus formation was also recorded by reduction ofmedium strength of WRM to one eighth compared to others. The reduction induced PGA up to 58% with 29% of PARand 1.8 NCF. From histological studies it was well recognized that regenerated callus on half anthers cultured wasoriginated from middle layer cells of anther wall. The morphogenic response of anther wall cells caused primarilyon no androgenesis effect in microspore cells.

Abstract

The demand for petroleum has increased recently due to the increase of world population, industries andtransportation. Biodiesel (fatty acids methyl esters) has become attractive because of high price of petroleum,limited recourses of crude oil, and environmental concerns. Most biodiesel is produced by transesterification oftriglycerides of refined/edible type oils using methanol and homogeneous catalyst such NaOH and KOH. The useof heterogeneous calcined CaCO3 catalyst, has advantages such as the ease of phase separation betweencatalyst and biodiesel. This paper presents factors affecting the synthesis of biodiesel from crude palm using thecalcined CaCO3 catalyst . The synthesis is carried out by two steps, the acid-catalyzed pre-esterification of free-fatty acid and followed by base-catalyzed transesterification of triglycerides. A study of optimizing the reactioncondition of the esterification followed by transesterification of crude palm oil (CPO) is performed to obtainmaximum production of biodiesel. Under conditions of catalyst calcination temperature of 9000C, reactor time of1.5 hours, catalyst dosage of 1,5%, reaction temperature of 700C and methanol/oil molar ratio of 9 : 1, the oilconversion is 74,6%. The as-synthesized biodiesel meets the requirements of Indonesian National Standard (SNI)for biodiesel.

Abstract

Sago mushrooms (Volvariella sp.) were known as edible mushroom which grow sporadically on decay of sagopith waste in Papua. Local people in Papua always hunting and harvesting sago mushrooms which are growingwild on decayed sago pith waste. People were enjoyed consumption of sago mushrooms. The aims of this researchwere to study nutrient contents of sago mushrooms as well as to distinguish the difference of morphologicalcharacters between sago mushroom and paddy straw mushroom which popular in Indonesia. Sago mushroomswere collected from Yapen regency, Papua Province and measured for their nutrient contents and morphologicalcharacteristics. The results of this research showed that morphological characteristic of sago mushroom differfrom paddy straw mushroom and other edible mushroom. Nutrient contents of Sago mushroom per 100 gramsfresh weigh were follows: protein 4.00 g, carbohydrate 2.99 g, lipid 0.19 g, calcium 11.53 mg, phosphorous 0.31 g,and potassium 165.05 mg. Nutrient contents of sago mushroom were very different from that of paddy strawmushroom and others mushrooms of the genus Volvariella. Based on morphological characteristic and nutrientcontents of Sago mushrooms, we suggest that sago mushrooms is a new species.

Abstract

Javasom Talinum paniculatum Jacq. (Gaertn.) is one of popular vegetable plants with potential medicinal properties.The plant root is often used as a substitute for ginseng (Panax ginseng L.), and the leaves are used as a vegetableand as a substitute for purslane (Portulaca olaraeae L.). An effort to improve genetic quality of the plant was madethrough induced mutation with ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS). A variety of EMS dosages (0, 0.3%, 0.6%, 0.9%,1.2%, 1.5% dan 1.8%) were applied to javasom seeds to induce mutation for 24 hours at room temperature. Selectedfive putative mutant genotypes of the third generation after mutagen treatment (M3) was analyzed using Ramdomamplified polymorphic DNA (RAD) marker. Twenty RAPD primers generated 185 scorable bands with 78.92% ofthem were polymorphic. Size of the bands varied from 200bp to 2.5kbp. Clustering analysis was performed basedon RAPD profiles using the UPGMA method. The range of genetic distance among individual genotypes was fromfrom 0.31 to 0.58, while genetic variance was 0.29 + 0.17. The five genotypes were proof to be solid mutants.

Abstract

The introduction of new varieties and production system of anthuriums has faced some problems due to the lowmultiplication rates in conventional vegetative and genotypic alteration problem in reproductive propagation. Sincethen, in vitro propagation technique became important to be investigated. The research was carried out fromSeptember 2006 to August 2007 at the Indonesian Ornamental Crops Research Institute. A complete factorialexperiment was designed to accomplish two chronological in vitro activities. The first step dealt with differentincubation sites, i.e. dark and light conditions for callus induction of three potted anthurium accessions, namelyclone no. SM. 001, cv. Alphine and cv. Bonito. The best callus obtained from the incubation treatment were then,transferred into defined media with different formulations to get free-callus plantlets in the second steps. Theresults showed that more progressive callus development from spathe explant was detected on the media ofmodified Nitsch and Nitsch + 1 mg/l 2,D + 1 mg/l Kin + 1 mg/l BA stored at dark after 60 days incubation. After 45days transferring the callus in the same media on light conditions, torpedo-shaped callus was detected. Completeplanlets were obtained after 75 days reculturing the buds in Nitsch and Nitsch medium containing 2,4 D withvarious BA concentrations. Clone SM. 001 and cv. Bonito showed higher number of visible shoot and rootdevelopments compared to cv. Alphine. In general, better shoot and root developments and higher planlets survivedafter acclimatization were observed on the BA concentrations of 2 and 3 mg/l.
