Research on the isolation and antibacterial activity test of the Sabrang Onion (Eleutherine bulbosa) bulb has been carried out. This study aims to obtain triterpenoid compounds from Sabrang onion bulb and find out its activity as an antibacterial against Escherichia coli bacteria causing Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). UTI is a disease with a fairly high prevalence of 80% caused by E. coli bacteria, with the highest number of patient are woman. The stages of this research include extraction by maceration method using n-hexane solvent. The concentrated n-hexane extract was then analyzed with thin layer chromatography. Positive identification of triterpenoids was carried out using Liebermann-Burchard reagents with n-hexane: ethyl acetate (9: 1) eluent. The obtained isolates were also analyzed using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The results of the analysis showed that the isolate had an absorbance value of 0.205 A at a wavelength of 443 nm and 0.430 A at a wavelength of 788 nm. The isolates were tested for antibacterial activity against E. coli bacteria by agar diffusion method. The results showed that the inhibition zone diameter at a concentration of 0.5% w / v was 20.19 mm, at a concentration of 1% w / v the inhibitory zone was 21.83 mm. In the positive control used standard tetracycline, the diameter of the inhibition zone was 40.67mm. Inhibition zone diameter at a concentration of 0.5% w / v was 20.19 mm, at a concentration of 1% w / v the resulting inhibition zone was 21.83 mm. An increase in the response of inhibition against E. coli bacteria with a concentration of 1% w/ v of 1.64 mm. In the positive control, the diameter of inhibition zone is 40.67 mm. Thus, triterpenoid isolates from Sabrang Onion are effective as antibacterial, in the strong category with inhibition zone diameters > 20 mm.

Reading is an important skill because children must learn to read from an early age. This research aims to evaluate teachers' strategies in developing the early reading skills of children aged 5-6 years at Kindergarten Ilmu Hayati, Kuala Lipis, Pahang, Malaysia. Qualitative methods are used with case study approach in observation and interviews. The results showed that weekly learning techniques were consistent, but variations in daily courses were applied. The role of parents is very important in children's reading development, and children who are guided by parents at home tend to develop reading skills more quickly. The habit of attending the second learning session is influenced by parents who work in the afternoon. The theory of children's reading development in Malaysia emphasizes the importance of readers' interactions with texts to build meaning. Effective reading strategies include the use of a variety of strategies according to the text and context to achieve specific goals.

This study analyzes the impact of cooling load on condenser performance in the Steam Power Plant. The condenser, as a heat exchanger, plays a critical role in condensing steam from the turbine back into liquid form, thus maintaining the continuous cycle of the steam power system. Survey-based research was conducted, with data collected on steam and cooling water temperatures at various stages. The steam inlet and outlet temperatures were recorded at 514°C and 465°C, respectively, with cooling water entering at 32.9°C and exiting at 38.9°C at a flow rate of 100 m³/h. Using the Log Mean Temperature Difference method, initial and final temperature differences were calculated at 453°C and 465°C. Results suggest that tube fouling or leakage contributes to declining condenser efficiency, which can significantly reduce power plant performance. This study highlights the importance of regular maintenance and monitoring of condenser units to optimize thermal efficiency and power generation output.

This quantitative study aims to develop a data-driven framework for optimizing infrastructure investments in Myanmar’s Central Region, identified as a prospective economic hub. Integrating the Cobb-Douglas Production Function, Ridge Regression, and Composite Index Analysis, the framework systematically evaluates four key economic inputs: private capital, labor, transport infrastructure, and public infrastructure and GDP output. Ridge Regression addresses multicollinearity in government budget data, improving stability and reliability of coefficient estimates, while the Composite Index aggregates these inputs into a single metric of economic potential. Findings reveal that the Central Region scores highest, highlighting its readiness to become Myanmar’s next economic hub through strategic infrastructure investments. This robust methodology surpasses traditional models by providing policymakers with a practical tool to reduce regional disparities and prioritize high-impact investments. The study’s implications extend beyond Myanmar, offering a scalable model adaptable for other developing economies facing similar infrastructure and growth challenges.
