Abstract

Turtles They are among the world's protected animals and one of the rare, almost extinct species. The preservation of their habitat and knowledge of the traits of turtle-friendly habitats are two ways that the rescue and protection of these turtles must go on. For rescue operations, turtle sustainability, and sustainable coastal management, research is being conducted on the features of the turtle nesting habitats on Popareng Beach. This research aims to determine the characteristics of turtle nesting habitats and identify the parameters that hinder turtles from nesting at Popareng Beach, Tatapaan District, South Minahasa Regency. The method used in this research is the descriptive-exploratory method. With characteristic parameters consisting of beach width measurement, beach slope, sand temperature, sand humidity, sand texture, beach vegetation, and the presence of predators. From the research results, it shows that station 1 and station 2 have results that are suitable for turtle nesting habitats, with values obtained at station 1 being 88.33% and station 2 being 92%. Meanwhile, at station 3, with an evaluation score of 72%, it is considered fairly suitable and the station has tolerable limitations.

Abstract

Gastric ulcers are one of the common side effects that occur as a result of using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) such as ketoprofen. The combination of turmeric extract (Curcuma domestica Val) and honey has the potential as an alternative therapy due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties. This research aims to evaluate the effects of the combination of these two substances on gastric ulcers in mice induced by ketoprofen microscopically. To determine the effect of a combination of turmeric extract and honey on the histopathological profile of stomach ulcers in mice (Mus musculus) induced by ketoprofen. This study used an experimental method with a completely randomized design. Mice were divided into several groups, namely the negative control group (without treatment), positive control (ketoprofen without therapy), and the treatment group that was given a combination of turmeric extract and honey with varying doses. Gastric ulcers are induced by administration of ketoprofen, followed by microscopic observation of gastric mucosal damage. The data was analyzed statistically to see significant differences between groups. Histopathological observations show that the group given a combination of turmeric extract and honey experienced a significant reduction in the level of gastric mucosal damage compared to the positive control group. The combination is capable of reducing inflammation, necrosis, and accelerating tissue regeneration. The combination of turmeric extract and honey is effective in reducing gastric ulcers in mice induced by ketoprofen microscopically. This research supports the potential use of both natural substances as adjuvant therapy to prevent or address gastric damage caused by NSAIDS.

Abstract

Red beans are a horticultural crop belonging to the annual legume group that grows upright and has a fairly high nutritional content. To obtain maximum growth and yield from red beans, several factors must be considered, including balanced fertilizer application. The factor of providing organic fertilizer from chicken manure with the right dosage is the target of this study. This study aims to determine the effect of red bean growth on the dosage of chicken manure fertilizer. This study was conducted from December 2024 to February 2025 and was carried out on the plantation land of the Department of Science Education, Faculty of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Earth Sciences, Manado State University. The method used is a quantitative method with a type of experiment in the form of a Randomized Block Design (RAK) with five treatment combinations with each repeated three times. A0 = 0 (control), A1 = 1.00 kg, A2 = 1.50 kg, A3 = 2.00 kg, A4 = 2.50 kg, so there are 15 experimental bed units, and the data obtained are then analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results of this study indicate that good plant height growth, number of leaves and stem diameter are found in treatment A1 with a dose of 1.00 kg of chicken manure fertilizer and A2 with a dose of 1.50 kg of chicken manure fertilizer because there is the most maximum growth.

Abstract

Ethnobotany is the study of the relationship between plants and humans, including the use of plants by local communities. Traditional medicinal plants are plants that are often used by local communities for their health benefits. This study aims to describe the types of medicinal plants used and how they are processed using traditional methods in the village of Passi, West Passi subdistrict, Bolaang Mongondow district. This research is descriptive qualitative with an interview method and descriptive analysis technique. The results of this study show that there are 37 types of medicinal plants used with a total of 23 families found. The methods of processing traditional medicinal plants are: boiling, squeezing, soaking, pounding, and not processing. The most commonly used processing method is boiling, with 24 types of medicinal plants using this method. The parts of the plants that are most commonly used are: stems, fruits, flowers, leaves, roots, gel, sap, rhizomes, and tubers. The most commonly used parts are leaves, rhizomes, and fruits.
