Abstract

The identification of Vibrio sp. bacteria in the water of intensive and traditional ponds for vannamei shrimp in Teluk Pambang Village was conducted from March to June 2023. The aim of this research was to calculate the quantity of Vibrio sp. bacteria, understand the morphological characteristics, and identify the various types of Vibrio sp. bacteria in the water of intensive and traditional ponds for vannamei shrimp. The sampling involved collecting water from 2 bottles each from intensive and traditional ponds. Subsequently, Vibrio isolation from the water was cultured on selective TCBS media through three dilution steps. The bacterial count was then determined. Further, bacterial cultures from different colonies were streaked on TSA media, followed by identification through a series of morphological observations and biochemical tests. The research results indicate that the presence of Vibrio bacteria in intensive ponds complies with the maximum threshold and quality standards for a favorable environment for both the pond and shrimp. However, for traditional ponds, there is an abundance of Vibrio bacteria exceeding the threshold, where the maximum limit or good quality standard for Vibrio in the environment and shrimp is 103 CFU/ml. The morphological characteristics found include a round shape, green and yellow color, and a flat edge with emerging elevations. Furthermore, infections of Vibrio hollisae, Vibrio anguillarum, and Vibrio damsela were identified in the water of intensive and traditional ponds for vannamei shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in Teluk Pambang Village, Bengkalis Regency.

Abstract

This research was carried out in June 2023; the research location was on the coast of Kampung Beran, Tanjung Harapan, Meranti Islands Regency. This research aims to determine the type and abundance of beach litter, analyze the differences in the type and abundance of beach waste between stations, and analyze the type and abundance of beach litter between sampling times. Beach litter data collection was taken at three stations, with each station 25m in distance. Each station has three transect lines with nine plots or quadrants measuring 5×5 m2 with a distance between plots of 5m. Sampling was conducted during low tide and on weekdays (Tuesday, Wednesday) and weekends (Saturday, Sunday). Based on the research results, five types of beach litter were found, namely plastic (40%), iron/metal materials (5%), broken glass/ceramic (31%), rubber (3%), wood (11%), and others (10%). The highest abundance of waste occurred on weekdays (10,59 units/m2), and the lowest waste occurred on weekends (7,97 units/m2). ANOVA analysis and independent sample test show that the abundance of beach litter waste between stations and between sampling times did not have significant differences (P > 0.05).

Abstract

Chitosan extracted from vannamei shrimp shells has the potential to act as an attractant for Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) while also enhancing growth performance and digestibility in various fish species. This study evaluated the impact of chitosan supplementation in feed on Tilapia's growth rate and digestibility. The experiment was designed using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatment groups and three replications. Fish were fed diets containing chitosan at 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% for 56 days. 525 tilapia fingerlings (2.50±0.41 g) were stocked in 15 floating net cages (1x1x1 m3). Feed was provided at 10% of the fish biomass three times daily at 08:00 AM, 01:00 PM, and 05:00 PM. The results indicated that chitosan supplementation significantly (P<0.05) influenced Tilapia's specific growth rate and digestibility. Among the tested levels, the 4% chitosan treatment yielded the highest values, including overall digestibility (52.38%), protein digestibility (74.72%), protein retention (27.27%), feed efficiency (34.77%), specific growth rate (3.33%), and 100% survival rate. These findings suggest that incorporating chitosan into tilapia feed can enhance growth performance and nutrient utilization.

Abstract

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection is associated with serious complications, including liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) is a transcription factor that regulates the expression of antioxidant genes, helping protect cells and tissues from oxidative stress, a process involved in the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). This study aimed to determine the distribution of NRF2 polymorphisms in CHB patients and their association with complications. The study included 68 CHB patients, with 33 having no complications and 35 with complications (Cirrhosis and HCC). Genotyping of the NRF2 polymorphisms, rs35652124 (A→G) and rs6721961 (C→A), was performed using confronting two-pair primers and polymerase chain reaction (PCR-CTPP). The serum levels of bilirubin, albumin, and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured using commercial kits. The mean age of subjects was 45.34±1.32 years old on average. There was no significant difference in mean bilirubin and ALT levels between patients with and without CHB complications. However, patients without complications had significantly higher albumin levels than those with complications (4.0±0.8 vs. 3.37±0.7 g/dL; p<0.05). The most common genotypes for NRF2 rs35652124 were AG (51.85%), AA (40.74%), and GG (7.41%), while for NRF2 rs6721961, the were CA (51.47%), CC (45.59%), and AA (2.94%). The distribution of NRF2 genotypes did not differ significantly between CHB patients with and without complications (p>0.05). This study suggests that NRF2 gene polymorphisms may not contribute to the development of Cirrhosis and HCC in CHB. Further research with a larger sample size is needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract

Mangrove forest vegetation is spread across several islands in Indonesia, including Rupat Island. Rupat Island is the outermost island in Riau Province, close to Malaysia, and directly faces international waters, namely the Malacca Strait. Rupat Island has two sub-districts, namely Rupat District and North Rupat District. Rupat Island has a very extensive mangrove forest and has a significant contribution. Monitoring changes in mangrove forests is one way of controlling the mangrove forest ecosystem. This research aims to analyze changes in mangrove vegetation area and mangrove density using the MVI algorithm in 2013 and 2023 on Rupat Island, Bengkalis Regency. This research was conducted in the mangrove forest ecosystem on Rupat Island, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province. The method used in this research is a survey method with observation and field data collection (ground check). Based on image processing results, the area of ​​mangrove vegetation was 13903.03 ha (2013) to 11748.66 ha (2023) and experienced a reduction of 2154.37 ha. Classification based on MVI in sparse density has an area of ​​5872.46 ha (2013), decreasing to 3422.05 ha (2023); medium density has an area of ​​2188.84 ha (2013), increasing to 3334.64 ha (2023), and dense density has an area of ​​5841.73 ha (2013) reduced to 4991.97 ha. Over 10 years, the density of mangrove vegetation has increased in the medium class and tends to decrease in the sparse and dense classes. Based on calculations, the density of mangroves on Rupat Island falls into the tree category, ranging from 1150.00 ind/ha to 1450.00 ind/ha, which is considered good, and the sapling category ranges from 366.67 ind/ha to 1050.00 ind/ha, which is classified as good.

Abstract

Indonesia has abundant natural resources, including the Bengkalis coastal area. Bengkalis waters are the largest in Riau Province, with a water area of 677,472.44 km2. One of the coastal areas is Buruk Bakul Village in Bukit Batu District, Bengkalis Regency, which has an area of about 68.05 km2. However, when viewed from the condition of the waters, marine debris poses a threat. Organic waste or sesai inhibits the growth of mangrove saplings and even causes death in mangrove saplings. The location of the research object is the coast of Buruk Bakul Village. The research objectives are to determine the potential of sesai to be used as an organic planting medium and to know the community's social perceptions and economic perceptions towards sesai as a planting medium. The research method used in this research is the survey method. Primary data included the results of NPK analysis on sesai, questionnaires, interviews, and observations in the field. Purposive sampling was carried out using the Geographic Information System (ArcGIS) along the coast of Buruk Bakul Village to measure sesai potential. The analysis results show the abundant potential of sesai, which can increase utilization into environmentally friendly planting media with the availability of a total volume of sesai of 39,029.5 m³ with an average volume per location of 2,295.8 m³. NPK content analysis (0.41%, 19.44 mg/100g, and 21.84 mg/100g) can be used as planting media. Social perception showed community initiative through survey results, which showed that 64% of respondents responded well. Economic perception by utilizing sesai as a planting medium can provide a profit of IDR.3,000 per unit, opening up opportunities for increased income for the people of Buruk Bakul Village

Abstract

Marigold (Tagetes erecta) from the Asteraceae family is well-known for its various uses as cut flowers, potted plants, ornamental plants, medicines, dyes, and biopesticides. Micropropagation and optimization of in vitro regeneration of T.erecta species provide opportunities for plant propagation and utilization of biotechnology in plant breeding. This study evaluated the regeneration efficiency of in vitro plantlet leaf explants with different combinations of IAA and BAP concentrations in organogenesis induction media. IAA concentration affects the growth of adventitious shoots on explants. Decreasing IAA concentration affects the percentage of shoot growth, roots, and average number of roots in organogenesis induction media. Meanwhile, adding cytokinins to the induction media will modulate auxin movement during organogenesis and plant cell regeneration. Leaf explants on Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with 2.8 µM IAA + 31.0 µM BAP showed shoot growth reaching 58%, with root growth reaching 32%. Meanwhile, using lower BAP 2.8 µM IAA + 13.3 µM BAP resulted in 63% of explants forming shoots with a lower percentage of root growth. Increasing the concentration of IAA (5.7 µM + 13.3 µM BAP) showed a root formation response reaching 61% with a smaller number of shoots (48%). The explant response began with the explant part differentiating to form a callus with a growing point that would form yellowish-green shoots (RHS / Fan3-N144-C) at 28 days of induction
