Abstract

Phytoplankton plays an important role in Litopenaeus vannamei cultivation. It plays a role as natural feed, water quality control, and indicator of shrimp cultivation success. The community structure of phytoplankton can be influenced by organic matter concentration in ponds. On the other hand, water quality and phytoplankton community structure also influence the productivity of shrimp cultivation. The research aimed to analyze the phytoplankton structure community, cultivation performance and the water quality in one of vananmei shrimp cultivation located in Muncar District. The research used the descriptive method. The research was conducted in two shrimp intensive system ponds in Tembokrejo Village, Muncar District, Banyuwangi, on February-March 2020. Parameters observed were composition, diversity, and density of phytoplankton, water quality parameters, and production performance in each pond. Based on the results, five phytoplankton classes was found: Bacillariophyceae (12 genera), Chlorophyceae (4 genera), Cyanophyceae (8 genera), Dinophyceae (2 genera), and Euglenophyceae (1 genus). Based on the density, Cyclotella and Chlorella were dominated in both ponds. Diversity index values on ponds 1 and ponds 2 were 1.64 and 1.71, respectively. The productivity of both ponds was 10.794 kg.ha-1 and 11.698 kg.ha-1, FCR (Feed Conversion Ratio) were 0.99 and 1.18, and ADG (Average Daily Growth) on both ponds were 0.16 g.day-1. Water quality parameters in both ponds showed an optimal range for vannamei cultivation, except phosphate, which is quite high. Overall, the cultivation performance of both ponds in our research showed good results. However, cultivation performance obtained in this research was not on its best performance yet due to Infectious Myonecrosis (IMNV) infection.Keywords: Cultivation performance, Litopenaeus vannamei, muncar, phytoplankton.

Abstract

Dioxin is one of the environmental persistent organic pollutants that harm animal and human health. Prolonged exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) can disrupt normal organ function including heart. Yogurt is known to have antioxidant properties, and fortification natural plant-based antioxidant purple roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L) extract into yogurt can improve the antioxidant potential. The purpose of this study was to determine the preventive effect of yogurt fortified with purple roselle on dioxin exposure rats (Rattus norvegicus) based on the levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA) and histopathological of the heart. This experimental study using a completely randomized design (CRD). A total of 30 male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups (NC, PC, T1, T2, T3), a dose of 200 ng/kg BW TCDD and 1 mL of roselle yogurt 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5% were given orally for 12 days. MDA levels were analyzed using the Thiobarbituric Acid (TBA) assay and histopathology of the heart using the Haematoxylin Eosin (HE) staining method. Statistical analysis using one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Histopathology changes were analyzed descriptively. The results showed that TCDD exposure induced oxidative stress in heart tissue and yogurt roselle has the potential to prevent an increase of MDA levels significantly (p<0.05). Furthermore, TCDD can cause histopathological alterations such as necrosis and hemorrhage, and yogurt roselle was proven to prevent cardiotoxicity due to TCDD exposure.

Abstract

In this article, a model representing the spread of Hepatitis B disease is constructed as a nonlinear autonomous system. The model divides the considered human population into three classes, namely susceptible, infected, and recovered class. The dynamical analysis shows that there are two equilibrium points in the model, namely a disease-free equilibrium point and an endemic equilibrium point. The existence and stability of the equilibrium points depend on the basic reproduction number (R_0). The disease-free equilibrium point is local asymptotically stable when R_0<1 while the endemic equilibrium point exists and is local asymptotically stable if R_0>1. The five parameters of the model are estimated by applying Downhill Simplex (Nelder-Mead) Algorithm and by using the infected data cases taken from such a hospital in Malang. The estimated parameters are the transmission of infection rate, the saturation rate, the vaccination rate, the recovery rate, and the immunity loss rate. The resulting parameter estimation supports the analytical result and is used to illustrate the analytical results numerically. Based on the considered model and the result of the parameters estimation, it can be concluded that the Hepatitis B spread in Malang is controllable. Keywords: downhill simplex (Nelder-mead) algorithm, dynamical analysis, hepatitis B model, parameter estimation.

Abstract

Piper Crocatum Ruiz & Pav leaves often be used to treat various diseases, including cancer, empirically. This study aimed to analyze the anticancer activities of Piper Crocatum bioactive compounds via In Silico analysis. The methods were biological activity analysis, cell line cytotoxicity activity, SwissADME, STITCH, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation. The investigated bioactive compounds were β-asarone, methyl piperonylketone, and coumaric acid. The results showed the biological activities of the compounds related to anticancer were anti-mutagenic, TNF expression inhibitive, and MMP9 expression inhibitive. The prediction of cytotoxicity analysis results showed that investigated bioactive compounds were toxic on various tumor cell lines. Based on swissADME results, almost all compounds have good pharmacological properties, except coumaric acid. Docking analysis demonstrated the presence of bioactive compounds inhibited TNFa, HER2, and MMP9 as the target protein. The molecular dynamic result was confirmed using molecular dynamic and it shows that β-asarone interaction was stable against MMP9 and TNF protein showed by the low RMSD value. The study found the investigated bioactive compounds of Piper crocatum have the activity of anti-cancer via the inhibition of TNFa and MMP9 protein. However, further research still needs to be done to confirm the prediction results of this In Silico study. Keywords: anticancer, In Silico, molecular docking, Piper crocatum.

Abstract

Asian Pacific Shrimp is an invertebrate that the most culture in aquaculture. But the high demand for shrimp makes farmers cultivate a high density. There are several ways to increase the density of shrimp culture, usually called geomembrane plastic and concrete ponds. The ponds are located in the Laboratory of Brackishwater and Seawater Fisheries, Probolinggo and Lucky Windu, Situbondo. Day of Culture (DOC) on Laboratory of Brackishwater and Seawater Fisheries in Probolinggo pond is 85 days both, while in Lucky Windu Situbondo is 81 days on pond 2, and pond  3B 133 days. The study aimed to evaluate correlations of VLPs towards geomembrane and concrete ponds. The research method has two observations: 1. Periodic observations; nitrite, ammonium, and shrimp were observed; 2. Last observation; sampling water for analysis VLPs was observed. Data of sampling water in the different ponds were then analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis to look for the level of tightness and direction of the relationship. The results have obtained that geomembrane VLPs and concrete VLPs has a very strong relationship, while the type of geomembrane and concrete was close to 1 > 0.5 and the result is 0.90, 0.96, 0.69, and 0.82. Water quality showed pH 8.1 at geomembrane, nitrite 0.2mg.L-1 at geomembrane, and ammonium of 0.44 mg.L-1 at concrete. The pond area in geomembrane pond 1 and 2 was 1600 m2, meanwhile in concrete both is 4300 m2, which mean in concrete ponds more the existence of VLPs is because due to the different pond area factors and indicates from detections of WSSV that the result was positive that makes environment factor in abundances VLPs. But VLPs have no effect on the growth of shrimp vaname during the cultivated process.Keywords: Asian Shrimp Pasific (L. vannamei), Virus-Like Particles (VLPs), Water Quality, and WSSV.

Abstract

Bacteria are bioremediation agents that are advised to overcome water pollution. This study aims to isolate biosurfactant-producing bacteria for bioremediation from Tanjung Perak Port, Surabaya. The isolates grown in specific media were tested for drop collapse, oil spreading test, and emulsification index. A total of 12 bacterial isolates were isolated from Tanjung Perak seawater contaminated with diesel oil. In the drop collapse test, four isolates had the highest positive score from this test, isolate LU-5, LU-7, LU-9, and LU-11. While in the second test, the oil spreading test, the highest positive score results were obtained in three isolates, isolates LU-2, LU-7, and LU-11. The emulsification index (E24) value showed that isolates LU-7, LU-9, and LU-11 were significantly higher than the others, which was above 10%. This study concludes that in Tanjung Perak, seawater-contaminated oil isolated several bacteria that produce biosurfactants, which have the potential to be developed as bioremediation agents.Keywords: bacteria, bioremediation, biosurfactant, diesel oil
