ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY ASSAY OF MANGROVE EXTRACTS AGAINST SALMONELLA TYPHI AND LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES
Get PDFThe antibacterial activities of mangrove species, Avicennia marina, Sonneratia caseolaris (collected from Teluk Payo, Banyuasin, South Sumatera), Ceriops tagal, Rizhopora apiculata, and Sonneratia alba (collected from Sadai, South Bangka) were screened against Salmonella typhi and Listeria monocytogenes by agar disk diffusion assays. Extractions were conducted using organic solvents (methanol, ethyl acetate, and acetone, subsequently). Most of the extracts tested showed potential antibacterial activity against both pathogens. The methanol extracts of the bark from S. alba and the fruit from A. marina showed particularly large inhibition zones (15 mm) against S. typhi. The acetone extract of S. alba leaves showed the largest inhibition zone (14 mm) when tested against L. Monocy-togenes. Further partial purifications of selected extracts which showed strong inhibition were performed by silica gel column chromatography using various eluent compositions with different polarities. The third fraction of methanol extract from S.alba leaves eluted with chloroform:methanol (1:5) resulted in a remarkably large inhibition zone (23 mm) against S. typhi. The third and seventh fractions of acetone extract from S. alba leaves eluted with ethyl acetate:methanol (7:3) resulted in a large inhibition zones (15 mm) against L. monocytogenes. In addition, the sixth fraction of methanol extract from A. marina fruit eluted with chloroform : methanol (6:4) resulted in the largest inhibition zone (17 mm) against L. monocytogenes. These results indicated that mangrove extracts could be developed as potential biomaterials for biopharmaceutical as well as biopreservation industries.Keywords: antibacterial activity, mangrove, column chromatograph
DAMAGE LEVEL AND CLAIMED VALUE ESTIMATION OF DAMAGE MANGROVE ECOSYSTEM IN BINTAN BAY, BINTAN DISTRICT
Get PDFABSTRACTMangrove ecosystem in some regions of the Bintan Bay has suffered damage due to development of human settlements, developing of land transport infrastructure, and also logging by the community. The aim of this study was to assess the level of damage, factors affecting the damage, and to calculate the estimated value of claims for damaged mangrove ecosystem in the Bintan Bay, Bintan District. The results showed that mangrove vegetation in Bintan Bay consists of 16 species. Based on the analysis of standard criteria and guidelines for mangrove destruction KEPMENLH 201, 2004, the quality of mangroves in Bintan Bay was considered in a good criteria (very dense and medium) and damaged criteria (rare). The observation of satellite images from 1990 to 2013 showed that mangrove area decreased by 501.39 hectares or 27.1%. Contributing factor due to the decrease of mangrove trees was to fuel the manufacture of charcoal, construction of infrastructures such as roads, ports of fishing boats and also the establishment of the fish pond. Based on rehabilitation application scenario for 15 years, the total area of compensated mangrove due to its damage was 1091.727 hectares with rehabilitation cost of about Rp 30.372.391.000,00. Meanwhile, for 30 years scenario rehabilitation, the total damage mangrove area that should be compensated was 1743.406 hectares.

TURBULENT MIXING PROCESSES IN LABANI CHANNEL, THE MAKASSAR STRAIT
Get PDFStudy on turbulent mixing processes in Labani Channel, the Makassar Strait, was conducted by using the INSTANT (International Nusantara Stratification And Transport) program dataset, in Juli 2005. The turbulent mixing process was evaluated using Thorpe method, where the overturning eddies were revealed by density inversions in CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) profiles. All individual identified-overturn regions was validated by the GK’s test (Galbraith and Kelly test) where at first noise on CTD signals had been removed by applying wavelet denoising. A large number of overturn regions with Thorpe scale (LT) less than 0.5 m were detected in the thermocline layer of Makassar Strait. Based on linear relationship between Thorpe and Ozmidov scale, order of magnitude of the turbulent energy kinetic dissipation rate in Labani Channel was estimated about 10-11- 10-5Wkg-1 and density eddy diffusivity Kρ(10-6 – 10-2) m2/s . The strong of turbulen mixing was found at the layer of NPSW at 150 m depth and NPIW at 300 m depth, indicated by high values of Kρ (O = 10-3 – 10-2 m2s-1). It reveals that turbulent mixing has an important role on determining ITF water mass character.

VERTICAL DISTRIBUTION OF NUTRIENTS ON TRANSITIONAL SEASON IN WEDA BAY, NORTH MALUKU
Get PDFA vertical distribution of nutrient shows an interaction of physical processes, source, and uptake along the water column. These interactions can occur along the water column with different processes in each layer. Water samples from 17 stations were collected for nitrate, phosphate, and silicates concentration analyses during the transitional season in the Weda Bay. During the transitional season, the Weda Bay was characterized by low salinity (33.55-34.10), relatively warm temperature (30.87°C), and the relatively low nutrient concentrations (nitrate=0.03-4.87 µg at/l, phosphate=0.011-0.852 µg at/l, and silicate=0.04-1.21 µg at/l). The present of Western North Pacific Ocean (WNPO) watermass and the influence of Southern Subtropical Lower Water (SSLW) producing high salinity (>35) at the depth of 130-300 m were observed along the Weda Bay. Nutrient geochemical processes in this region were shown by nutrient utilization and regeneration across the water columns. Nutrients utilization was relatively high in the surface layer. Meanwhile, nutrients regeneration and remineralization were more dominant in the thermocline and deeper water layers. Analyses of nutrients showed that nitrate was more dominant than other nutrients with N/P ratio was 3.83-37.99 and N/Si ratio was 0.12-10.98. The effectiveness of silicate (0.25 μg at/l) that was used by phytoplankton found at a depth of 200 m when its concentration decreased at N/P ratio (16:08) close to the Redfield ratio. Due to an uptake, remineralization, and regeneration processes in each layer, a nutrient distribution pattern was formed which the nutrient concentrations decreased in mixed layer and increased in the deeper water.Keywords:nutrien, pattern, Weda Bay, transitional season
NATURAL CATHEPSIN INHIBITOR TO INHIBIT MILKFISH DETERIORATION DURING CHILLING STORAGE
Get PDFQuality deterioration of fish is caused by various factors, one of them is due to the activity of cathepsin enzyme. Cathepsin enzyme activity can be inhibited by enzyme inhibitors. Inhibitors of the enzyme can be obtained from fish meat tissue by separating the enzyme-inhibitor complex with heat treatment. The purpose of this research was to extract and apply the cathepsin inhibitors to inhibit deterioration of fish quality. This research was conducted in three steps: (1) the determination of the optimum extraction temperature for extraction of cathepsin inhibitors, (2) the determination of the most potent cathepsin inhibitors with various concentrations, and (3) the application of cathepsin inhibitors in inhibiting the deterioration of fish quality. The results showed that the cathepsin inhibitors was optimally extracted at 80°C. Cathepsin inhibitors diluted using buffer with a ratio of 1: 1 had the same relative activity without dilution. The process of quality deterioration of milkfish control in chilling temperatures occured after 504 hours (21 days) storage with a 24-hour observation time interval. The complete process during observation was pre-rigor (0 hour ), rigor mortis (96 hours), post-rigor (360 hours), and deterioration (504 hours). The process of milkfish quality deterioration treated with soaking in cathepsin inhibitors occured after 624 hours (26 days) storage with the detailed process as follows: 0 hour (pre-rigor), 144 hours (rigor mortis), 408 hours (post-rigor), and 624 hours (deterioration). Thus fish marinated with cathepsin inhibitors achieve slower deterioration phase 5 days. Keywords: cathepsin inhibitor, deterioration, pre-rigor, rigor mortis, post-rigor, quality deterioration
COMMUNITY STRUCTURE OF FORAMINIFERA IN SURFACE SEDIMENTS AND CORRELATION WITH ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS IN OFFSHORE WATERS OF BALIKPAPAN, MAKASSAR STRAIT
Get PDFThe distribution of foraminifera is influenced by several environmental factors such as depth, sediment type, chemical and physical oceanographic paramaters, and season. The aim of the study was to determine the foraminiferal assemblages and their relationship to physical and chemical parameters in the offshore of Balikpapan waters of Makassar Strait such as depth, temperature, currents, sediment types, and salinity. Surface sediment, physical, and chemical parameters sampling was conducted in April 2012. The results of the observations on the sediment samples recognized planktonic foraminifera in 6 genera and 40 genera of benthic foraminifera from the 6 stations. Biodiversity of planktonic foraminifera was categorized in a low category with a range of 0.198-0.525. However, biodiversity for benthic foraminifera was categorized in a high category with a range of 0.811-0.925. Dominance of planktonic foraminifera was medium to high with range of 0.474-0.802 which was assumed due to the sampling sites as an open waters. Meanwhile, dominance for benthic foraminifera was in a low category with range of 0.075-0.189. The most common planktonic foraminifera was found from Genus Globigerina (10538 individuals). While, the most abundant of benthic foraminifera was found from Genus Amphistegina (3134 individuals). Keywords: abundance, foraminifera, sediment, and Makassar Strai
