Abstract

Phytoremediation capabilities of Opuntia spp. were tested on heavy metal polluted soil collected in a metallurgical factory in Carmona Cavite. Initial soil testing shows traces of Arsenic: 8.48 mg/Kg, Chromium: 116 mg/Kg, and Lead: 79 mg/Kg. pH and moisture are neutral and dry. Opuntia was compared to A. vera, within two months. Final results show both can decrease concentrations of Arsenic and Lead but Chromium from Opuntia have increased concentration might be due to the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III).

Abstract

The need for biodiversity science with the availability and interoperability of data on the internet reinforces each other. This is driven by the increasing literacy of the world community regarding the impact of loss of biodiversity on the sustainability of human life. High-quality biodiversity data is needed to demonstrate that spatio-temporal loss of biodiversity has led to a reduction in quality of life. This facts have underpinned SEAMEO BIOTROP to increase the visibility of managed biodiversity collection data. SEAMEO BIOTROP maintains thousands of valuable herbarium collections of weeds, trees and invasive plants; fungi, insects and pests for research and testing purposes. These historic and valuable collections of biodiversity need to be preserved and better managed in digital format so that the information is available to botanists and the general public around the world. A study regarding the development of an integrated biodiversity collection database framework has been carried out by SEAMEO BIOTROP. This study aims to formulate and develop an initial framework for the BIOTROP biodiversity database that is relevant to national, regional and global needs. This study succeeded in developing an integrated database framework that brings together all digital data from the SEAMEO BIOTROP biodiversity collection into a database management system. This database management system also adopts Darwin Core metadata to ensure easy exchange and sharing of data with existing biodiversity data management systems in the world.

Abstract

Sandalwood (Santalum album) and Teak (Tectona grandis) are essential wood sources for furniture. Sustainable micropropagation methods can benefit wood availability. This study evaluates NaOCl and Povidone-iodine effects, immersion duration, and concentrations on teak and sandalwood micropropagation. Teak is treated with 10% & 15% NaOCl and 10% & 15% Povidone-iodine. No significant difference was observed between teak treatments; however, povidone-iodine shows potential as an effective teak sterilizing agent. Sandalwood's best sterilization: NaOCl at 10% & 15%.

Abstract

Haiyan, the strongest typhoon on landfall damaged mangrove covers resulting to uprooting, cutting off trunks, total defoliation and eventually death. After five years, Cancabato Bay were monitored for mangal succession and natural regrowth. Basal area was computed using diameter by breast height to estimate recovery. New species reappeared compared to the baseline study of GIZ (2014). Mangroves manifested regrowth and should be given time for natural regeneration and colonization. Natural succession patterns should be considered in human-assisted rehabilitation after disturbance.

Abstract

Philippine Cinnamomum are trees with aromatic leaves and bark. It has several economic and medicinal uses, but concerns about protein profile are limited. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the relative protein component of the species by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate- Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). A total of 27 cinnamon species were run in Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate - Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-Page) with LSB (Laemli Sample Buffer) and Tris HCI (1:1) as sample buffer. Determining protein profiles is a tool for the systematic classification of the species. Results showed that Philippine Cinnamomum leaf samples have the same component proteins. The SDS-PAGE provided a similar protein banding pattern, although the same bands' intensity varies. Pronounced protein bands were observed corresponding to 50 to 75 kDa and 25 kDa, with additional minor bands indicating a higher protein content. The results in SDS-PAGE showed that the component proteins of Cinnamomum leaves were comparable regardless of geographical source and different stages of growth of the samples. However, the concentration of some component proteins may vary, as indicated by the difference in intensity of protein bands. Sodium dodecyl sulphate Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) is a tool in the biochemical method of determining the relative protein profile of Cinnamomum species. It can be used to classify plants up to the species level. Based on the study results, Philippine Cinnamomum has a higher protein content that can be used in culinary, medicinal, and pharmaceuticals.

Abstract

Polystyrene Paper Styrofoam (PSP) styrofoam waste is one of the plastic waste that is difficult to degrade. However, from the recently research reported that the PSP styrofoam can be degradated by Tenebrio molitor L. The degradation depends on composition of PSP styrofoam as a part of feeding. This research was aimed to get the composition of good feed to increase the degradation rate of the PSP styrofoam waste, but it still had a good effect on the survivorship and growth of T molitor L. larvae. This research was an experimental laboratory and designed using a control and seven treatments with 3 replications. The parameters observed were survivorship, growth in body length, biomass, and waste degradation rate. The data obtained was analysed using Anova and Duncan test. The results showed that differences in PSP styrofoam waste feed had a significant effect on survivorship (p=0.00), on the growth of body length (p=0.002) and biomass (p=0.00), and waste degradation rate (p=0.02). The research revealed that lower the composition of PSP styrofoam and higher the composition of concentrate combination effected on increasing the survivorship, growth, and waste degradation rate. The result shows that 1 kg T molitor L. larvae can degrade 0.25 kg of PSP styrofoam waste for 60 days. The finding can be used to solve the problem according to the styrofoam pollution.
