Abstract

Diabetes presents with a constellation of symptoms,hyperglycemia being just one of them.The primary challenge faced by physicians is to achieve a control over this exorbitant blood sugar levels.Oral antidiabetic agents & insulin therapy are the primary modalities of treatment available presently. The most reliable diagnostic as well as prognostic marker used for this purpose is HbA1c. Adenosine Deaminase (ADA), an enzyme associated with purine metabolism is known to exert potent metabolic effects through its receptors. ADA is primarily an established inflammatory marker reflecting T lymphocyte activity .Adenosine,the substrate of ADA is known to affect cholesterol synthesis in liver,thereby serving as a key hinge in the fine balance between glucose & lipid homeostasis. Due to the association of ADA with glucose & lipid homeostasis ,the authors believe that studying ADA activity in serum of diabetics can reveal many important facts which might open a new dimension in diagnosis & treatment protocol for diabetes mellitus.The purpose of our study was to monitor ADA activity in serum of diabetic patients who are on oral antidiabetic drugs & do not have evidence of microvascular or macrovascular complications of diabetes & also determine if any correlation exists between fasting blood glucose,HbA1c & serum ADA activity.

Abstract

Tempeh and tofu are widely consumed by Indonesians and easily made using simple tools and method, thus numerous home industries producing are emerging. However, soybean processing in these industries produces high volume of wastewater. This study provides a simple wastewater treatment instrument design that could be used by soybean-based home industries by applying a series of physical, chemical, and biological treatment. Physical treatment was performed by filtration, chemical by addition of alum salts, while biological treatment was done by supplementing with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from leftover container of fermented milk. Wastewater was recorded by its parameters (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen/DO, biological oxygen demand/BOD, turbidity) at every phase of treatment after incubation for two various of periods; 1 hour and 5 days. Results showed that wastewater treated using instrument design had changes in all of its parameters observed during the course of treatment.  Wastewater treated in all phase of instrument incubated for 1 hour showed parameters approaching wastewater quality standards, thus it was safer to be disposed to environment compared to wastewater incubated for 5 days. Wastewater treatment as designed in the current study can be applied by soybean-based home industries with short incubation time to remediate wastewater produced during soybean processing before disposal.

Abstract

Red Chili (Capsicum annum L.) is a horticultural plants that is classified as an important commodity and has high economic value. One of the main problems in the production of red chili is anthracnose disease caused by the Colletotrichum capsici pathogen. Bacillus spp. expected to have the potential to inhibit the growth of C. capsici and stimulate the growth of plant. This study aims to determine the potential of Bacillus spp., in suppressing the growth of the C. capsici fungus and stimulating the growth of red chili. This study used a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with the treatment without Bacillus spp., chemical fungicides, Bacillus sp. (Ba-6), Bacillus sp. (Ba-9), Bacillus sp. (Ba-12), Bacillus sp. (Ba-15), and Bacillus sp. (Ba-17). The treatment was repeated 4 times and the treatment unit contained 5 red chili/polybag. The results showed that the highest suppression of C. capsici in the treatment of Bacillus sp. Ba-15 was 6.25% compared to the negative control. The best bacteria that can stimulate the growth of red chili is Bacillus sp. Ba-9 with an average plant height 20.10 cm and an average number of leaves 10.49

Abstract

Abstract The family Burseraceae comprises a total of 18 genera and 540 species. Boswellia dalzielii is a botanical species commonly employed in tropical and subtropical regions for its therapeutic properties, serving as a remedy for a diverse range of health conditions. The taxonomic identification and chemical composition of B. dalzielii in northern Nigeria have not been extensively documented in scientific literature, despite the recognized medicinal efficacy of this plant species. The soxhlet extraction method was employed to extract ethanol, methanol, and aqueous crude from the leaves. Subsequently, the extracted samples were subjected to analysis using gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry. Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was employed for the purpose of functional group identification in the crude extract. There was clear and noticeable distinction between the species under consideration on the X axis of principal component (PC) 1. The methanol and aqueous chemicals that were extracted from B. dalzielii showed a higher degree of similarity and were found to cluster together on the left side of the PC1 axis. PC2 did not indicate a clear distinction of the extract. The ethanol extract included 15 different chemicals, the methanol extract contained 12 different chemicals, and the aqueous extract contained 11 different chemicals.

Abstract

This study aims to determine and analyze the relationship of organic carbon in sediments with the growth rate of seagrass Enhalus acoroides and Thalassia hemprichii. This research was conducted on Langkai Island, Makassar City, with three points, namely near the coast, in the middle and near the coral reefs. The research phase began with marking the seagrass E. acoroides and T. hemprichii in the field, then measuring the growth rate of the seagrass, followed by a sieving process to determine the texture of the sediment, and burning to determine the organic carbon content of the sediment. The results showed that differences in sediment organic carbon showed a weak correaltion and insignificant. The differences in the growth rates of seagrass E. acoroides and T. hemprichii based on point were not significant. The relationship between organic carbon and sediment texture has a weak correlation and insignificant. Similarly, the effect of organic carbon on the growth rate of seagrass E. acoroides and T. hemprichii also showed a weak correlation and insignificant.
