Abstract

Magnetic gradiometer survey has been conducted on the yard of the archaeological site of Masjid Tuha Indrapuri, Aceh Besar Regency, Aceh Province. The site is one of the oldest mosques erected during the Aceh Sultanate period. Magnetic method was applied for mapping archaeological structures buried beneath the surface. Total magnetic field data were measured using Proton Precession Magnetometer with grid spacing of 2 meters between stations covering the entire area of the site. Diurnal and international geomagnetic reference field data were corrected to the measured data in order to calculate total magnetic field anomalies that were influenced by the buried magnetic objects. The total magnetic field anomalies distribution shows two elongated structures with U-shaped patterns surrounding the mosque. The patterns are also revealed in reduction to the pole and derivative vertical filters of the total field anomaly data. The anomaly patterns are considered a response from the rest of the buried fences that were built around the mosque in the past.

Abstract

Abstract.The antioxidant activity from methanol extract of nutmeg leaves (Myristica fragrans Houtt) was performed using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazil (DPPH). Antioxidant assay using DPPH of the methanol extract at a concentration of 25 ppm, 50 ppm and 100 ppm, showed high antioxidant activity with IC50 = 36.31 ppm and Vitamin C showed antioxidant activity with IC50 = 3.657 ppm. The methanol extract of nutmeg leaves were partitioned with chloroform to obtain chloroform extract of the leaves with IC50 = 28.30 ppm. isolation of the active compounds from the chloroform  extract of the nutmeg leaf using column chromatography yielded 6 mix fractions MFMD 1, MFMD 2, MFMD 3, MFMD 4, MFMD 5 and MFMD 6. The test results of antioxidant activity in very strong category is fractions MFMD 4, MFMD 3, MFMD 2, MFMD 6 and MFMD 5 with IC50 of each are 26.590 ppm, 27.239 ppm, 29.639 ppm, 39.766 ppm and 55.436 ppm, while antioxidant activity in a weak catagory is fraction MFMD 1 with IC50 is 126.270 ppm. This shows that the fraction of the leaf has a better inhibitory activity, because some of the active compound contained in the fraction can synergize in inhibiting free radicals, so that the IC50 value of the fraction is stronger than the extract. Keywords: Antioxidant, chromathography, Nutmeg (Myristica fragransHoutt), methanol extract, leaves

Abstract

Sea cucumbers are a marine source with biological activities that have been used in food as well as medicine in many Asian countries. Actinopyga mauritiana is one of the sea cucumber species with limited research about its bioactive activities. In this study, the wound healing activity of A. mauritiana extract in the form of cream, gel, and serum formulations in mice was investigated. The histopathology test was performed to evaluate the fibroblast and collagen dense levels in wound healing. Phytochemical screening has been carried out by the qualitative test of alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, steroids, and saponins compounds. The A. mauritiana ethanol extract (SCAE) was added into cream, gel and serum formulations with various concentrations (3, 6, and 9%) and applied to the wounded area of mice. The wound healing activities and histopathology results indicated that serum 9%-SCAE performed the highest decrease of wound length 0.55 ± 0.32 compared to other groups with a density level of fibroblast and collagen are 10.00 ± 1.00 and 10.67 ± 0.00, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the wound healing activity of A.Mauritiana, which demonstrated promising therapeutic agents for wound healing and cosmetics applications in the future.

Abstract

DNA extraction is the first step in obtaining high-concentration and high-purity DNA that can use in the subsequent steps. Because the leaf structure is challenging and contains several secondary metabolites that can affect DNA extraction results, DNA extraction on dry leaves of Dipterocarpaceae is considered problematic. This research aims to find a suitable method for extracting DNA from the preserved Dipterocarpaceae leaves. Preserved leaves of Dipterocarpaceae in silica gel will dry up, making them tough to destroy. Perform DNA extraction is generally using CTAB buffers or extraction kits. According to the results of this study, extraction with modified CTAB buffer result in DNA with higher concentration and purity values than DNA extracted with the kit. DNA isolated from the modified CTAB can be used as a template in the PCR process to amplify the matK gene.

Abstract

The Dipterocarpaceae family is one of the identified plant groups with high conservation value that exist in Weh Island Nature Tourism Park. However, the data availability on the species diversity and population structure of Dipterocarpaceae in Weh island in particular and Aceh in general is still very limited. Thus, it is necessary to conduct studies on species diversity and population structure of Dipterocarpaceae from Weh Island. This study aims to obtain data on species abundance and diversity, species composition of each stratum, population structure, and stand structure of Dipterocarpaceae in Weh Island Nature Tourism Park. This research utilized transect method with randomly selected plots according to topographic conditions. We found two Dipterocarpaceae species: Shorea sumatrana (Slooten) Desch and Dipterocarpus hasseltii Blume. Shorea sumatrana (Slooten) Desch has the greatest abundance of all types and strata. The diversity of Dipterocarpaceae species in Weh Island Nature Tourism Park is categorized as low because the diversity index value is in the range of H'1. This means that the presence of seedling and sapling strata from each species has a major effect on the survival of the Dipterocarpaceae family in the future. The stand structure of the Dipterocarpaceae family in normal conditions is indicated by an inverted “J” shaped diagram.
