Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the crude cellulose corn stover substrate concentration and saccharification time to produce high glucose. Cellulose contained in the corn stover has potential converted into glucose by enzymatic hydrolysis using cellulase enzymes. Glucose production in different substrate concentrations and saccharification times uses a factorial randomized block design (RBD) consisting of two factors. The first factor is the substrate concentration which consists of 4 levels, namely 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% (w/v). The second factor is the saccharification time which consists of 4 levels, namely 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and 96 hours. The observed variables include glucose level, cellulose residue, pH, and total dissolved solid. The results showed that 5% substrate concentration and 96 hours saccharification time was the best treatment for producing the maximum glucose level was 0,3003 mg/mL, the minimum cellulose residue after saccharification was 17,75%, pH after saccharification was 6,1, and the highest total dissolved solid after saccharification was 2,7°Brix.

Abstract

Burung Kasuari Gelambir Ganda (Casuarius casuarius Linnaeus, 1758) merupakan satwa endemik yang keberadaannya memiliki pengaruh besar dalam ekologi hutan di Papua. Sebagai frugivora, burung ini berperan untukmenyebarkan biji pohon buah-buahan yang merupakan 90% dari spesies pohon di hutan Papua. Namun populasi burung ini di habitat alaminya mengalami penurunan akibat konversi hutan seiring perkembangan penduduk, dan diperparah oleh perburuan oleh masyarakat setempat. Konservasi ex-situ dilakukan dengan tujuan untuk mengembangbiakkan satwa di luar habitat aslinya, sehingga penelitian aktivitas harian spesies burung Kasuari Gelambir Ganda perlu dilaksanakan. Penelitian dilakukan dari tanggal 10 Januari sampai 21 Februari 2022 terhadap lima individu burung Kasuari Gelambir Ganda di Bali Zoo. Metode yang digunakan yaitu focal animal sampling dengan instantaneous recording selama 30 menitdengan interval waktu satu menit.

Abstract

Utilization of flora biodiversity is very potential to be explored as a source of medicine. Their phytochemicals content could be used as immunomodulator to help body's immunity fight pathogen. Brazilian spinach has the potential to be developed as an herbal-based immunostimulant because of its nutritional value and phytochemical compounds. This study aimed to study the effect of Brazilian spinach leaf extract on the immune response of male mice as shown by lymphocyte count and spleen and thymus index values. Extract of Brazilian spinach leaf was obtained by maceration method using 96% ethanol as solvent. Phytochemical were detected using qualitative biochemical methods and GC-MS. The in vivo test was carried out by giving 6 treatments to male mice orally in 7 days, namely aquades treatment, negative control (Na-CMC-aquadest), positive control (commercial immunostimulants), and three doses of Brazilian spinach leaf extract, namely 0.1563 mg/g. BB; 0.312 mg/g BW), and 0.468 mg/g BW. The number of lymphocytes was prepared and counted by blood smear, as well as the calculation of the spleen and thymus index based on fresh weight calculation. Qualitative biochemical assays showed identified flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins and steroids in Brazilian spinach leaf extract, meanwhile GC-MS assays showed 3 dominant compounds, namely neophytadiene, phytol and -Tocopheryl acetate. The administration of Brazilian spinach leaf extract with a dose of 0.1563 mg/g BW was the most effective in increasing lymphocytes count of tested animals. The thymus and spleen index values ??correlated with the increased number of lymphocytes in the administration of Brazilian spinach leaf extract. These results indicate the basic potential of using Brazilian spinach leaves as an immunostimulant.

Abstract

Oocyte developmental competence is one of the determining factors that in?uence the outcomes of an IVF cycle regarding the ability of a female gamete to reach maturation and be fertilized. A non-invasive approach using proteomic analysis of oocyte cumulus cells (CCs) can be used as a method to predict oocyte competence and viability that could potentially function as molecular predictors for IVF program prognosis. Our study was aimed at quantifying protein markers (HAS2, PTX3, BCL2 and BAX) that are expressed in human CCs between mature (MII) and immature (MI) oocytes. This research is an analytic observational study. Twelve samples of CCs from mature (MII) and immature (MI) oocytes were collected after ovum pick up from patients undergoing ICSI. CCs samples were isolated using an ultrasonicator and protein expressions were quantified using ELISA method. The Mann-Whitney test was used to compare the protein expressions from CCs between mature and immature oocytes. The results showed HAS2, PTX3 and BCL2 proteins expressions was increase in CCs from mature oocytes but had no significant effect compared to CCs from immature oocytes, however, BAX protein expression was significantly higher (P<0.05) in CCs from immature oocytes which CCs from mature oocytes. This present study shows that BAX proteins could be used as markers for oocyte quality and maturation. Key words: ELISA, maturation, proteins marker, cumulus cells (CCs)
