Abstract

According to research published in the Journal of Applied Phycology, algae have the ability to produce biofuels with five times higher energy efficiency compared to soybean plants, making it a highly efficient and sustainable option for renewable fuels. The goal of this research is to use biotechnology to create biofuels from algae as a renewable energy. This study used a laboratory experimental design with a quantitative approach. Population: Microalgae or green algae that have high potential in lipid production, such as Chlorella vulgaris or Spirulina platensis, which are commonly used in biofuel research. Sample: Several species of algae were selected to test their effectiveness as biofuels, including genetically engineered species and natural species as a comparison. The results of the ANOVA analysis showed significant differences in lipid levels between treatment groups. The results of the T/Post-hoc test confirmed that the genetically engineered species had higher lipid levels, supporting the efficiency of biofuels. The regression results showed a strong positive correlation (R² = 0.68), which supports other studies that found that microalgae can produce biomass in a relatively short time with a controlled environment, making it efficient for large-scale biofuel production. The conversion efficiency of lipids to biofuels reached 85.5%, indicating that the transesterification method used in this study is very effective in converting algae lipids to biodiesel. The use of biotechnology in the production of biofuels from algae has great potential as an efficient and sustainable renewable energy source.

Abstract

The global pharmaceutical industry is constantly looking for new resources that can be used to develop bioactive ingredients to produce more effective and innovative medicines. One resource that has attracted the attention of researchers is marine microorganisms (UGM, 2017; Wiganti, 2022). The ocean, which covers more than 70% of the Earth's surface, is an ecosystem rich in biodiversity, including microorganisms that are unique and rarely found in terrestrial environments. This research aims to explore and identify marine microorganisms that have potential in the production of bioactive materials for pharmaceutical applications. Based on the results of this study, only Extract I showed significant inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus, while Extract II had almost no inhibition. Table 2 shows the results of the study indicating that the inhibition of seaweed extracts was absent. Gracillaria sp. seaweed extracts evaporated through a rotary vacuum evaporator and seaweed extracts evaporated through an oven had no inhibition. This study showed that bioactive compounds prepared through extraction using vacuum evaporator had greater inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus. This suggests that marine microorganisms can be a source of bioactive ingredients for the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract

Climate change is a major threat to food security, especially for farmers in vulnerable areas facing the challenges of climate change. This study aimed to modify the plant genome to increase tolerance to extreme climatic conditions such as drought and high temperatures using genetic engineering methods based on CRISPR-Cas9 technology. Transgenic and control plants were grown in a laboratory experimental design with a quantitative approach. The results showed that the transgenic plants consistently outperformed the control plants under drought, high temperature, and low nutrient conditions. The transgenic plant showed a growth rate of 15.2 and average productivity of 25.7, higher than the control (12.3 and 19.1). Under high temperature conditions, the increase in productivity was even greater, reaching 33.2%, indicating that the inserted HSP gene successfully protects important proteins from heat stress damage. Genetic modification through the expression of genes such as DREB1A, HSP70, and PHR1 was shown to increase plant resistance to environmental stress. With these findings, biotechnology provides a real opportunity to build more adaptive and sustainable agricultural systems, supporting global food needs amid the intensifying challenges of global warming. This research is very relevant in answering the big challenge in the future, which is how to ensure biotechnology can be utilised sustainably to meet the world's growing food needs, without compromising ecosystems and biodiversity.

Abstract

This research aims to develop and test biotechnological methods that can increase coral reef resilience to environmental stress due to climate change. Symbiodinium spp. were genetically engineered, probiotics were administered, and tissue culture was conducted. The results showed that engineered corals showed higher temperature tolerance, lower bleaching rates, faster growth, and increased survival in both the laboratory and field. These results suggest that the application of biotechnology, including genetic engineering, tissue culture, and coral probiotic applications, is effective in increasing coral resilience and health in the face of climate change impacts to coral reef ecosystems. This method provides an innovative and applicable solution for coral reef conservation and restoration. This research is expected to provide concrete solutions to support the sustainability of marine ecosystems in the future.

Abstract

In Indonesia, environmental pollution is a major concern, especially in industrialised and urban areas. The use of synthesised microorganisms can be an innovative solution to rehabilitate the damaged ecosystems in this region. In this research, an innovative approach based on synthetic biological engineering will be developed to create microbes that have an optimal capacity to absorb and decompose various types of environmental pollutants, such as heavy metals (Pb and Hg), hydrocarbons (benzene), and organic waste (phenol). The results show that the engineered bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, Bacillus subtilis, and Alcaligenes eutrophus showed high pollutant removal efficiency (85-93%) under laboratory conditions. These results support the potential of synthetic biology technology as an innovative solutions in bioremediation of polluted environments. This research makes a real contribution to green technology innovation in environmental pollution mitigation, supporting the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially on points 6 (Clean Water) and 15 (Land Ecosystems).
