Abstract

Sago caterpillars are ethnomedically used as food and medicine by the people of several tribes in Indonesia. Sago caterpillar oil contains active compounds, especially fatty acids that have antibacterial potential. Research has been carried out which aims to obtain the bioactive content of sago worm oil and the antibacterial activity of Salmonella typhi and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Sago caterpillars are obtained from the Minahasa region. Four to six instar sago caterpillars are used for oil isolation. Analysis of the content of sago worm oil using the Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometry method. Meanwhile, the antibacterial test used the agar diffusion method using pure cultures of Salmonella thypii and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that the average sago caterpillar oil was 0.26 to 0.28 ml per head. The results of the antibacterial test showed the highest inhibition of S. aureus at a concentration of 1000 mg/L, namely 8.04 mm, while the inhibition of growth of S. thypii was highest at a concentration of 1000 mg/L, namely 7.69 mm. Sago caterpillar oil has antibacterial potential.

Abstract

Algae are lower plants that do not have differentiated structures such as roots, stems, and leaves; although they may appear to have differences, they are actually just thallus forms. Macroalgae have macroscopic body shape and size consisting of fronds without distinct roots, stems, and leaves. Macroalgal diversity is not only reflected in their ecological and economic significance but also in their high species richness and wide geographical distribution within aquatic ecosystems. However, research on the species diversity of macroalgae in Budo Tourism Village Beach, North Minahasa remains limited. This study aims to identify the macroalgal species in the Budo Tourism Village, Wori, North Minahasa area. The research employed the line transect and quadrat-based sampling method, which was implemented at two distinct station locations: Station I (rocky reef substrate) and Station II (sandy-muddy substrate). Macroalgae identification was facilitated by utilizing the comprehensive identification textbooks. The research reveals the presence of four macroalgal species, comprising three brown algae (Phaeophyceae), namely Padina boergesenii, Sargassum llinearifolium, Turbinaria ornata and one red algae (Rhodophyceae), Gracilaria corticata. Sargassum linearifolium, Padina boergesenii, and Gracilaria corticata was found in rocky reef substrate. Turbinaria ornate and Padina boergesenii was found in sandy-muddy substrate.

Abstract

Celery and Green Gedi leaves have been long considered traditional topical supplements to support hair growth. They contain flavanoids that are efficacious to induce keratinocyte proliferation. However, the research about whether the combination of celery and green gedi leaves can still provide an effect is limited. This current study aims to determine the effect of the combination of ethanol extracts of celery leaves and green gedi leaves on white rat hair growth. This is laboratory experimental research to compare the hair growth in three different groups with normal and positive control. Animals were randomly grouped (n=3 for each group) and then given a combination of leaf extracts and carbopol with a concentration of 17.5%:10%; 27.5%:15%;37.5%:20%. A normal control group was left untreated, while another group was treated with 2% minoxidil as positive control. The results of measuring fur weight on day 21 showed that the treatment group given the combination of extracts did affect the growth of rat hair. Statistical tests using one-way ANOVA showed a p-value of <0.001 which means there is a significant difference in the average hair weight of rats treated. LSD post hoc test showed that treatment with a 17.5%:10% concentration ratio was significantly different from the other treatments. It can be concluded that the combination of celery leaf extract and gedi leaf positively affects rat hair growth.

Abstract

Cancer is the leading cause of death in the world, with a high prevalence in Indonesia, especially breast cancer. Conventional therapies such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy have various limitations, including severe side effects and cancer cell resistance. This study aims to explore the anticancer potential of the ethanol extract of Apis dorsata Binghami nests originating from Uluway Barat Village, Tana Toraja Regency. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method with 96% ethanol solvent, with a yield of 51.42%, and bioactive compounds were identified through GC-MS analysis. Anticancer activity tests were carried out in vitro on MCF-7 breast cancer cells using the resazurin assay method . The results showed that the extract contained various bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, furanones, and aromatic aldehydes which are known to have antioxidant and anticancer activities. The IC50 value obtained was 434.30 µg/mL, indicating weak cytotoxic activity. Nevertheless, this extract showed significant ability to kill cancer cells at certain concentrations, especially 15.63 µg/mL which reduced cell viability by 44.39%. These results indicate that A. dorsata Binghami nests contain compounds that have the potential as natural anticancer agents, but require further research for fractionation and identification of more specific active compounds and further testing in vivo

Abstract

Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are a group of Gram-positive, cocci or rod-shaped microorganisms characterized by their catalase-negative phenotype. These bacteria are known to produce various antibacterial compounds, including organic acids, hydrogen peroxide, carbon dioxide, and bacteriocins, which exhibit bacteriostatic or bactericidal properties against pathogenic bacteria. The aim of this study is to isolate LAB that produce antibacterial compounds during the fermentation of Pakoba fruit (Syzygium luzonense) into sweets, with a focus on inhibiting the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. This research employs a quantitative descriptive method, involving the isolation of LAB from candied Pakoba fruit samples and subsequent testing of their antibacterial activity against the aforementioned pathogens. The barrier zone formed around the wells is then measured. The data from the study showed that BAL isolation from Pakoba fruit candied was obtained from as many as 10 isolates, and antibacterial activity tests showed that 10 BAL isolates produced antibacterial compounds with inhibitory diameters of 7.6 – 15.3 mm. The isolates with the greatest antibacterial activity are  LAB isolate MP(1)5.2  for E. coli and LAB isolate MP(3)6.3 isolates for S. aureus. Based on the results of identification using the profile matching method, it was shown that the selected LAB isolates, namely MP(1)5.2 and MP(3)6.3, were classified in the genus Lactobacillus with the characteristics of stem cell shape, single cell arrangement, catalase-negative, non-motile, did not form spots, and did not produce gas from glucose.

Abstract

Tridax procumbens L. and Aloe vera L. are plants commonly used in the treatment of burns. This study was conducted to determine the effect of giving a combination gel of T. procumbens and A. vera leaf extract on second-degree burn healing in mice. This study used 24 male mice (Mus musculus) which were divided into four treatment groups, namely positive control (KP, Bioplacenton®); negative control (KN, gel base); leaf extract of T. procumbens 0.5% and A. vera 0.5% (P1); and leaf extract of T. procumbens 1% and A. vera 0.5% (P2). The process of inducing burns on the backs of mice requires the use of a 1x1 cm iron, which is subjected to heat in a fire for three minutes. The iron is placed on the mice's back for five seconds, which leads to the development of a second-degree burn. The gel was applied twice a day for 21 days. The highest level of burn wound healing was recorded with the Bioplacenton® treatment, which achieved a full recovery of 100% on day 15. Following this, the combined gel treatment of 1% T. procumbens leaf extract and 0.5% A. vera also reached 100% healing by day 18. While it may not be as potent as Bioplacenton®, the gel formulation containing 1% T. procumbens and 0.5% A. vera leaf extract presents a viable alternative for treating second-degree burns.

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.
