Abstract

The activated carbon made in this study is activated carbon in the form of powder and granules (a mixture of the two) by a chemical activation process using calcium oxide (CaO). The characterization of activated carbon refers to the Indonesian National Standard 06-3730-1995 concerning technical activated carbon with the indicators tested being moisture content, volatile matter content, total ash content, bound carbon content and iodine adsorption capacity. Based on research on the characterization of activated carbon, nutmeg shells have a moisture content of 0.6979 %, volatile matter content of 3.8781%, total ash content of 8.7323%, bound carbon content of 87.3896 % and iodine adsorption capacity of 325. 0694 mg/g. Iodine adsorption capacity aims to determine the adsorption capacity of activated carbon. Based on the technical quality standard of activated carbon regarding iodine adsorption capacity stipulated by SNI 06-3730-1995, researchers can explain that the pore capacity of nutmeg shell activated carbon is very good for use as an adsorbent. The important use of activated carbon in nutmeg shells as an adsorbent is expected to be utilized for water purification from bacteria, absorption of inorganic materials dissolved in water and cosmetic base ingredients.

Abstract

Butterflies are insects that belong to the order Lepidoptera, meaning insects whose body surface is almost entirely covered by sheets of scales that give the style and color of butterfly wings. Butterflies are generally active during the day. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of butterfly species that exist in the Pattimura University campus area, Ambon. This research was conducted in February 2018. This research was conducted at 4 stations with 2 count points for each station. The results of research in the Pattimura University campus area at each station found 20 species from 4 major families of butterflies with 322 individual butterflies in all stations. The diversity index for all stations is 2.54 and belongs to the category of moderate species diversity.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the types of seagrass and their association with gastropods in the coastal waters of Poka Village, Ambon Bay District, Ambon City, Maluku Province. The laying of transect lines was based on the presence of seagrass beds, seagrass and gastrooda samples were taken from the same transect, using the 1×1 m quadrant transect method. Sample identification was carried out by LIPI Ambon's Marine Biota Conservation Agency Laboratory. Three species of seagrass were found namely Enhalus acoroides, Holophila ovalis, Halodule uninervis. Ten species of gastropods were found, namely Polinices mammilla, Natica vitellusi, Strombus labiatus, Strombus urceus, Bursa tuberosissima, Liotina peronii, Conus coronatus, Conus moriculatus, Nassarius pullus, Nassarius limnaeiformis. There is a positive association between seagrass and gastropods which means that the species These tend to be found together in each observation plot and show tolerance for living together or there is a mutually beneficial reciprocal relationship.

Abstract

The gastropods community in the mangrove ecosystem on the Waisisil beach, Saparua District, Maluku consists of 14 gastropod species, namely Clypeomorus batillariaeformis, Cypraea annulus, C. moneta, Hebra corticata, Littorina scabra, Morula margariticola, Nasarius olivaceus, Natica euzona, Nerita chamaeleon, N, signata, Otoplueura auriscati, Pyrene ocellata, Strombus labiatus, Terebralia sulcata. The species with the highest number of individuals was C. batillariaeformis and the species with the lowest number of individuals was C. annulus. The gastropod community in the mangrove ecosystem on the Waisisil beach has a species diversity index (H') = 1.8, evenness index (E) = 0.7, and dominance index (D) = 0.3.

Abstract

This study used a completely randomized design with a sample of 525 Anopheles sp. larvae. which were divided into 7 groups and 3 replicates, which contained 25 Anopheles spper larvae. Except for the control, each group was given clove leaf infusion starting from a concentration of 0.50%, 1%, 2%, 4% and 6%, where the treatment was carried out for 24 hours. The results showed that there was a larvicidal effect of brewing clove leaves (Syzygium aromaticum L.) on the mortality of Anopheles sp mosquito larvae, where the effective concentration was 6% and had an LC50 value in killing Anopheles sp larvae of 0.89%. The overall phytochemical content of clove leaves which has a fast response to the mortality of Anopheles sp. are saponins, flavonoids and tannins which are capable of acting as larvicides through the mechanism of damaging cell membranes or interfering with larval metabolic processes. The content of saponins, flavonoids and tannins can increase the mortality of Aedes aegypti L. larvae through the mechanism of damaging cell membranes or interfering with larval metabolic processes as stomach poisoning.

Abstract

This research is laboratory experimental in nature and was analyzed using Analysis of Variance and continued with Duncan's test, with 95% confidence (α=0.05) using SAS software. The results showed that giving clove leaf steeping could reduce uric acid levels in the blood of Rattus norvegicus rats. Clove leaf infusion (Syzygium aromaticum L.) contains flavonoids which have xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity, including luteolin, apigenin, kaemferol, and quercetin. In addition, Vitamin C can reduce oxidative stress and inflammation which affect the decrease in uric acid synthesis. Other compounds, namely tannins, alkaloids, and saponins have the same role as flavonoids, namely reducing the activity of the enzyme xanthine oxidase in serum and increasing the concentration of uric acid in the urine, as well as binding free radicals during the conversion of purines into uric acid. Infusion of clove leaves doses of 0.09g, 0.18g and 0.36g can reduce uric acid levels in the blood of rats (Rattus norvegicus) with an effective dose of 0.36g.
