OILSEEDS , *BLACK cumin , *MEDICINAL plants , *NANOPARTICLES , *ACTION spectrum , *GALACTOMANNANS - Abstract
Nigella sativa or black cumin is one of the medicinal plants that botanically belongs to the Ranunculaceae family and is literally described as the 'seed of blessings' due to its medicinal use in Islamic historical background. Black cumin has a wide spectrum of pharmacological actions, but its stability is still a limitation. To overcome this, solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) was introduced as an alternative carrier system of active compounds. In this study, solid lipid nanoparticles containing black cumin seed oil were successfully prepared by the emulsification-ultrasonication method. The effects of different emulsifiers were studied in terms of particle size. The particle size decreases with increasing lecithin/emulsifier concentration. The dynamic light scattering analysis of solid lipid nanoparticles confirmed the particle diameter of the formulated SLNs stabilized with poloxamer and tween 80 was approximately 220 nm to 1.2 µm. The results obtained from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the sphere-like shape of SLNs. From the SEM analysis, the diameter of the SLNs was in the range of 250 - 900 nm. Physiochemical characterization using DSC technique demonstrated a difference in crystal structure between SLNs with and without black cumin seed oils. SLNs system has a potential to show a high stable loading capacity of active lipophilic compounds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Rheumatic heart disease (RHD) is recognized as a heart disease resulting from sequelae in acute rheumatic fever (ARF), mostly manifested in mitral regurgitation. PINP and PIIINP play an important role in triggering the remodeling process. This is a cross-sectional study. Forty RHD patients underwent echocardiographic examinations to be classified into ARF without valve abnormalities, mild, moderate, and severe mitral regurgitation. PINP and PIIINP through venous blood and ELISA were examined. The result shows a significant PIIINP level and ratio PIIINP/PINP difference between the mild and severe MR groups (p = 0.020 and p = 0.026) with insignificant PINP levels. According to the correlation test, there is a correlation between the level of PIIINP and the degree of mitral regurgitation severity (p = 0.018) with (r = 0.372) while PINP dan PIIINP/PINP ratio is insignificant. According to the study, the PINP level is indicated insignificant, but PIIINP levels and PIIINP/PINP ratio show that in RHD, children with the severe form of mitral regurgitation are significantly higher than mild regurgitation group. Thus, there is a correlation between the PIIINP level and the degree of mitral regurgitation severity in children in RHD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Preterm infants need adequate nutritional intake for the faster growth process. Lack of zinc functioning in cellular metabolic processes causes growth and development disorders. One of the hormones playing a role in the growth and found to be reduced in preterm infants is insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This study aimed to determine whether zinc supplementation had an impact to increase zinc serum, IGF-1 levels, and growth parameters in preterm infants. This study was a pure experimental study with a double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT). This study also conducted pre and post-tests in control group. There was a significant difference in zinc serum level, IGF-1 level, and growth parameters at 3-month corrected age between the zinc and the placebo groups. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

HEAVY metals ,METAL wastes ,ADSORPTION capacity ,REFUSE containers ,SEWAGE - Abstract
Environmental pollution is a complex problem because waste is generated in all areas of life. If not handled properly, laboratory waste can pollute and endanger the environment. Laboratory waste containing heavy metals such as Cadmium, Chromium, Nickel, and Zinc is hazardous if it pollutes the environment. An easy and inexpensive method of treating heavy metal waste is adsorption. This research applies silica-cellulose material as heavy metal adsorbent in laboratory waste. Variations in contact time were used to measure the adsorbent capacity and adsorbent effectiveness on heavy metals Cadmium, Chromium, Nickel, and Zinc. The results showed that the contact time affected the adsorption capacity and the adsorption effectiveness of silica-cellulose on heavy metal content in laboratory waste. For Cd and Zn metals, the highest adsorption capacity at the contact time of 1 h with adsorption effectiveness values above 90%. Whereas for Cr and Ni metals, the highest adsorption capacity was at the contact time of 3 h with different values of adsorption effectiveness. For Cr metal, almost entirely can be absorbed well, while Ni metal is only half of the total metal can be absorbed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The magnetic nanomaterials have attracted significant attention as effective and potential adsorbents. We synthesized the Fe
3 O4 /MnO2 /HA nanocomposite as an adsorbent for strontium adsorption. The nanocomposite was synthesized by the coprecipitation method. Humic acid (HA) is used to coat nanocomposites were obtained from the compost of TPST Supit Urang Malang City, East Java, Indonesia. HA, Fe3 O4 nanoparticle, and Fe3 O4 /MnO2 /HA nanocomposites characterized by XRD, FT-IR, VSM, SEM-EDX, and BET methods. The Fe3 O4 /MnO2 /HA has been successfully synthesized. Coating Fe3 O4 nanoparticles with MnO2 /HA caused the composite size to be smaller when compared to Fe3 O4 nanoparticles. The ideal situation for the adsorption of Sr2+ by the nanocomposites was 0.4 g mass of adsorbent, pH 10, and contact time of 24 hours. The pseudo-second-order model is suitable for the adsorption of Sr2+ by the nanocomposite. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

High salt-tolerant extracellular protease is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in industries and requires high salt conditions. Some protease enzymes are not resistant to high salt conditions because they may denature under high salt concentrations. Halophilic microbes produce extracellular enzymes that are stable at high salts. This research has succeeded isolating several halophilic microbes capable of producing extracellular proteases from Bledug Kuwu, Grobogan, Central Java, Indonesia. Extracellular proteases producing bacteria screened with skim milk selective medium and purified with the quadrant streak method. Then, the pure isolate and the resulting extracellular protease were characterized BK1B isolate was a Gram-positive bacterium, while BK1D was a Gram-negative bacterium. BK1B isolate is a halotolerant bacterium and BK1D is a moderate halophilic bacterium. BK1B and BK1D had the largest proteolytic index values, capable of producing extracellular proteases with an optimal production time of three days and pH 6. Extracellular proteases from BK1B and BK1D worked optimally at pH 6 and temperatures of 45 and 42 °C with 2.541 and 3.505 U/mL activity and resistance to NaCl concentrations ranging from 3 - 13% NaCl. This suggests that extracellular proteases from BK1B and BK1D strains can be stable at high salt concentrations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Cipadessa baccifera (C. baccifera) is a plant belonging to the Meliaceae family growing in tropical areas and containing terpenoids and flavonoids. Flavonoids have antioxidant properties so they can inhibit oxidoreductase enzyme activities, such as xanthine oxidase playing a significant role in uric acid biosynthesis. This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity, xanthine oxidase inhibition activity, and the bioactive compounds in methanol extract and the most active fraction of C. baccifera leaves using LC-MS/MS. The research was carried out in the following steps: 1) extraction of C. baccifera leaves by maceration method using methanol solvent then phytochemical test, 2) fractions separation using solvents of n-hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water, 3) antioxidant and xanthine oxidase inhibition test of initial methanol extract and each fraction, 4) Identification of compounds using LC-MS/MS. The results showed that the methanol extract of C. baccifera contained alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and steroids. The ethyl acetate fraction had the highest levels of flavonoids, antioxidant activity, and xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity, and the LC-MS/MS analysis indicated that this fraction contained quercimeritrin, kaempferol 3-0-β-D-glucopyranoside, oxofangchirine, and glehlinoside B.

Vulvovaginal candidiasis occurs in 70 - 75% of women. About 40 - 45% of them experience vulvovaginal candidiasis for the second time. Approximately 70 - 89% of these infections are caused by Candida albicans. Candida albicans forming biofilm are reported to have a higher resistance to most anti-fungal drugs, including fluconazole. Objective: To determine the effects of propolis ethanolic extract (PEE) on biofilm formation and genes expression level of EFG1 on C. albicans biofilm. Methods: C. albicans biofilm formation was grown on SDB + 2% glucose and added with PEE with a concentration of 0% (control group) and 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 and 12.5% (treatment group). Then, C. albicans biofilm formation was incubated at 37 °C for 48 hours. Biofilm inhibition was tested by the crystal violet assay. Analysis of genes expression level of EFG1 was performed using Real Time-PCR and calculated by absolute quantification method. Results: The results of the PEE effect on biofilm inhibition percentage showed a decrease in biofilm formation with the increase in PEE concentration given (p = 0.001), and gene expression level analysis showed that EFG1 (p = 0.000) expression level decreased with the increase in PEE concentration given. Conclusion: Propolis ethanolic extract could reduce biofilm formation and down-regulate the expression of EFG1 in C. albicans biofilm formation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

An antineoplastic agent is one of the main focuses of pharmaceutical development to treat cancer disease. In silico study can efficiently reduce the time and cost of such screening anticancer agent candidates. This study aimed to screen the biological activity and pharmacological properties of potential Cyperus rotundus bioactive compounds. Five bioactive compounds contained in Cyperus rotundus, such as apigenin, aureusidin, luteolin, quercetin, and scaberin were used in this study. The biological activity of investigated bioactive compounds was analyzed using PASS (Prediction of Activity Spectra for Substances) software. SwissADME software was used to analyze the pharmacological properties of each compound. Results showed that various biological activities have a potential as anticancer of all investigated compounds including free radical scavenging, HIF-1a inhibitor, and apoptosis agonist activity. All investigated compounds except scaberin demonstrated an antimutagenic activity, TP53 enhancer, and MMP9 inhibitor. However, antineoplastic activity only showed by aureusidin, luteolin, and scaberin. Based on SwissADME analysis known that all investigated bioactive compounds showed optimum lipophilicity, size, polarity, solubility, and flexibility. But the only scaberin showed optimum saturation. Five bioactive compounds contained in Cyperus rotundus showed a promising effect as anticancer drug candidate, so it needs to be studied further. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Covid-19 pandemic, which is happening all over the world, needs serious attention. Covid-19 initiated by an RNA type virus can cause more severe problems later on due to its ability to mutate. Integrated molecular research is required to determine the characteristics and potential of various variants of Covid-19 in mutations. This study was conducted by directing phylogenetic analysis on 17 samples of Covid-19 sequences from several countries taken from the NCBI database and followed by ORF analysis of each Covid-19 sample for further characterization. Based on the study, it is known that from 17 samples of Covid-19 sequences, Covid-19 sequences from Taiwan have the lowest similarity compared to 16 other Covid-19 sequences. These results are confirmed by the ORF analysis of each sample, which shows that the longest ORF in the Covid-19 sequence from Taiwan is an ORF 20 with lengthened by 4405 amino acids, and the shortest ORF is an ORF 38 with lengthened by 50 amino acids. However, 16 other sequence samples have the longest ORF 6, ORF 6, with lengthened by 4405 amino acids and the shortest ORF 44 with lengthened by 50 amino acids. The difference in ORF variation affects the similarity level of Covid-19 sequences from several countries. It is due to variations in ORF that produce amino acid variations that determine the Covid-19 phenotype. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Atherosclerosis is the etiology of coronary heart disease (CHD) that contributes to the highest mortality rate of non-communicable disease groups in Indonesia. The early stage of this process is marked by the presence of fatty streaks lesion in the artery wall. This study aimed to investigate the effect of holy basil leaves (Ocimum sanctum L.) to suppress the formation of the fatty streak as previous study prove the reduced lipid levels, ROS, and inflammation after treated with this extract. 25 adult male New Zealand rabbits age 4-month weight 2500-3000 g fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) and 10 mg/kgBW/day Holy Basil Extract (HBE), 25 mg/kgBW/day HBE, 50 mg/kgBW/day HBE. The negative control group was received only HFD. For the experimental standard, one group provided with standard diet rabbits were included. The fatty streak was measured in aorta wall after 45 days of treatment by immunohistochemistry method and quantified using Image J software. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the fatty streak area between each group (p > 0.05). Still, there was a trend of decreasing fatty streak area dose dependent manner (negative control 5802.21+3690.41 µm
2 , P1 5154.69 + 3990.79 µm2 , P2 4938.31 + 3690.18 µm2 , and P3 3611.68 + 4092.96 µm2 ) even though it was not statistically significant (p > 0.05). This paper conclude that holy basil leaves extract may exert anti-atherosclerosis inhibition through attenuation of fatty streak formation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

DRUG side effects ,SUGAR ,ANNONA ,COVID-19 ,POWDERS ,BIOMEDICAL adhesives - Abstract
Gout and COVID-19 have been of global concerns. One of the drugs for gout is allopurinol that acts as a xanthin oxidase inhibitor (XOI). However, this drug has side effects, so we need safer drugs from herbal sources such as sugar apple. Sugar apple ethanol extract can act as XOI, but the activity of steeping with hot water is not known. Besides, several sugar apple compounds are also reported to be active as anti-viruses, but their activity has not been categorized against the COVID-19. This study aimed at making powder from sugar apple, which was brew using hot water, determined the phytochemical content, including TPC and TFC, tested its activity as XOI and the profile bond of the active compounds to the S protein of COVID-19. The results showed that the extract of sugar apple powder contained alkaloids, flavonoids, polyphenols, with TPC and TFC levels of 0.048% and 0.099%, active as XOI. Furthermore, the in silico analysis has shown three compounds in sugar apple, namely quercetin-3-glucoside, rutin, and kaempferol-3-rutinoside that can bound to the RBD of S protein of COVID-19, so it is predicted that the three compounds have anti-COVID-19 activity.

PLANT breeding ,SOYBEAN ,PRINCIPAL components analysis ,SEED yield ,CLUSTER analysis (Statistics) - Abstract
Observation of agronomic traits is crucial in plant breeding programs to develop high yielding varieties. High yielding varieties can be a solution for the low productivity of domestic soybeans. This study aimed to determine the agronomic traits of F3 generation soybean derived from high yielding small-seeded soybean genotype (UM 6-1) with large-seeded soybean variety (Grobogan). The agronomic data were analyzed using principal component analysis and cluster analysis. The highest influential characters were the seed yield per plant and the number of seeds per plant based on the first and second main components. The number of unfilled pods was the least prominent because its contribution to the main component was smallest than other characters. Plant height, number of branches, number of productive nodes, number of filled pods, number of seeds per plant had a similar contribution to the population structure. The UM 6-1/Grobogan lines were divided into 5 clusters. Cluster 1 did not have a character with high value. Cluster 2 had a high number of unfilled pods and 100-seed weight. Cluster 3 had high 100-seed weight. Clusters 4 and 5 had high values for six characters. Every cluster is attributed to some dominant characters that developed the cluster. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ISLAMIC law ,ISLAMIC countries ,ENVIRONMENTAL ethics ,ENVIRONMENTAL degradation - Abstract
This paper is a product of the authors' intellectual restlessness related to the reality that Indonesia still has a continuous problem of environmental destruction despite being a Muslim majority country. It does not align with Islamic teachings, especially knowing that Islam is a religion paying the most attention to the environment. Yūsuf Al-Qarḍāwy, through his book Ri'āyat al-Bī'ah fi Sharī'ah al-Islām, affirmed that Islam is an eco-friendly religion, using maqāṣid al-sharī'ah as the method of approach. There are three main problems discussed in this work. Firstly, Yūsuf al-Qardhawy's view on environmental ethics in Ri'āyat al-Bī'ah fi Sharī'ah al-Islām and his idea on hifdh al-bī'h as a part of maqāṣid al- sharī'ah. This research fell under the subject of normative law and thus it is categorized as library research based on the method used in gathering the data. The primary and secondary data were analyzed using the descriptive-analytic method. There are three findings highlighted in this work. Firstly, there are five basic principles of environmental ethics defined by Yūsuf Al-Qarḍāwy: the principle of respect, love and affection towards nature, responsibility, simplicity, and justice. Secondly, Yūsuf al-Qardhawy's concept of hifdh al-bī'ah is a medium to actualize kulliyāt al-khams. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The heterogeneous catalysts in biodiesel synthesis is more environmentally friendly and reusable. Alkaline earth oxides are less alkaline than alkaline oxides. Biodiesel is an alternative fuel, which has been started to be developed as a renewable energy. The aim of this study was to synthesize biodiesel from low-quality crude palm oil (CPO) with heterogeneous catalyst of MgO-K
2 O using ultrasonic waves. The stages in this study were (a) activation of natural zeolites, (b) refining of low quality of CPO, (c) synthesis of MgO-K2 O catalyst at ratio of 10 : 1, 10 : 2, 10 : 3 (MgO : KOH) and (d) transesterification of esterified CPO (variations in the amount of catalyst 10%, 15%, and 20%). This research achieved the optimum conditions for methyl ester synthesis at ratio of 10 : 2 (MgO : KOH) of catalyst composition (15% w/w of oil), and the yield was 88.086%. The character of the methyl ester was in accordance of Indonesian biodiesel standard, therefore, the methyl ester obtained has the potential as biodiesel. The composition of the synthesized methyl ester were 1.96% methyl myristate, 40.42% methyl palmitate, 44.32% methyl oleate, and 7.46% methyl stearate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) occurs when triglycerides inside hepatocytes are swollen. A single bulb garlic extract containing allicin components, S-allyl-l-cysteine, Ajoene (E-Ajoene and Z-Ajoene) are thought to inhibit fat biosynthesis and reduce triglycerides in blood serum. This study aimed to analyze single bulb garlic extract in NAFLD due to a high-fat diet (HFD) in mice. Twenty male Balb/C mice were divided into five groups: normal, HFD, HFD + Single Bulb Garlic Extract (SBGE) 100 mg kg BW
−1 , HFD + SBGE 200 mg kg BW−1 , and HFD + SBGE 400 mg kg BW−1 . The administration of SBGE orally altogether with HFD for 30 days. On the last day of treatment, the mice were sacrificed. The liver was collected to make a micro-anatomic slide and stained by Hematoxylin Eosin. Liver microanatomy slides were observed under a light microscope and scoring to count fatty liver cells. The results of this study indicated that administration of SBGE affected the average liver weight (p < 0.05). Treating SBGE with dose of 100 mg kg BW−1 , 200 mg kg BW−1 , and 400 mg kg BW−1 decreased hepatic steatosis (p < 0.05). SBGE could prevent non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in mice fed with HFD.

Streptococcus agalactiae is a gram-positive bacterium which has pili protein on its cell surface. It can cause pathogenic infections in the reproductive tract of women and newborns, resulting in premature births, meningitis, and pneumonia. Streptococcus agalactiae samples obtained from patients treated at Saiful Anwar Hospital Malang, East Java, Indonesia. Streptococcus agalactiae were cultured using biphasic brain heart infusion (BHI). The subjects were divided into 4 samples namely, the first pili cut sample, the second pili cut sample, the third pili cut sample and the whole Streptococcus agalactiae cells sample. Each group was tested for hemagglutination and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. The analysis test result was seen based on the agglutination and the dominant color of the protein band using the EZ Gel-Biorad Gel Documentation System tool. The hemagglutination test showed that the second cut of Streptococcus agalactiae pili had the highest positive hemagglutination test at dilution of titer 64 (1/64). The SDS-PAGE electrophoresis test showed that the dominant bands were in the second pili cut sample at 35 and 53 kDa molecular weights. The pili Streptococcus agalactiae has high hemagglutination activity and dominant molecular weight, which can be used as vaccine candidates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ENDOPHYTIC bacteria ,CINCHONA ,QUININE ,METABOLITES ,ALKALOIDS ,AMMONIUM chloride - Abstract
Malaria in Indonesia exceeds more than 300.000 cases in two consecutive years since 2016. Recently, a synthetic drug called chloroquine was used for the treatment. Unfortunately, the massive consumption of chloroquine gives rise to Plasmodium resistance. This research aims to determine the potency of endophytic bacteria obtained from cinchona plants root producing quinine compound and characterize its morphological properties. Quinine extraction starts with bacterial cultured in 7 mL Nutrient Broth inside vial supplemented with 140 µL (1:20) tryptophan. All bacteria cultures were incubated at 27 °C and agitated in a shaker with 120 rpm for 48 hours. The extraction process was carried out with additional 8.4 ml (1:1.2) chloroform to each sample. The qualitative measurement uses Thalleioquin test method with hydrochloric acid (HCl), Bromine-solution (KBr + KBrO
3 + H2 O), and ammonium chloride (NH4 Cl) as the main reagent. This screening test indicator is the color in the upper phase of the sample compared with the Green-Yellow color (5GY 8/6) from Munsell Color Chart. We found all isolates could produce quinine, and isolate a11 and a13 has the highest color strength. Both isolate a11 and a13 are classified as negative Gram, non-capsulated, and bacilli shape properties. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Keratinase is a specific proteolytic enzyme that degrades keratin. Keratinase has wide applications in global industries. Bacillus sp. MD24 has been reported to produce keratinase by solid-state fermentation method using chicken feathers as a sole substrate. Furthermore, keratinase production could be elevated by adding biomass waste (sugarcane bagasse, tofu waste, or rice husk) to chicken feathers. However, the ratio of biomass waste addition was unknown. The liquid by-product of keratinase production contains both carbon and nitrogen sources, which is potential as organic fertilizer. This study aimed to determine the effect of chicken feathers and an additional carbon source ratio toward keratinase production by Bacillus sp. MD24 and potential of its liquid by-products as organic fertilizer. This research was conducted in several stages: keratinase production, enzyme assay, testing liquid by-product on the growth of caisim, and plant morphological analysis. The results showed that the addition of tofu waste produced higher keratinase compared to other carbon sources. The optimal ratio between chicken feathers and tofu waste to produce optimal keratinase was 1:0,4 on the 6
th day. Growth rates, the number of leaves, and chlorophyll a and b pigments increased significantly with 20-days irrigation at 1:5 and 1:10 (v/v) dilution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Contamination caused by heavy metals such as Cr(VI) has become a serious problem in the aquatic environment in the world. Various kinds of research to avoid the destructive effects of pollution in multiple ecosystems are being investigated. One of the important efforts is to keep track of existence of heavy metals in aquatic environment. However, the monitoring of heavy metal existence meets several blockages, in this case due to the water stream of the river. This research was aimed to investigate the use of biofilm matrix as a biological agent to monitor water river quality and focused on Cr(VI) pollution in the Cokro River, Malang Regency. Cr(VI) concentrations in water and biofilm were investigated. The environmental parameters of Cokro River were also analyzed, there were temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen and salinity. The summary of this study showed that the concentration of Cr(VI) in the biofilms was higher than in water. Based on the results of this research, the biofilm matrix was a potential agent to monitor Cr(VI) concentration in the lotic ecosystems especially in Cokro River. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Magnetic fluid based on local iron sand using virgin coconut oil (VCO) as a natural surfactant is a magnetic fluid that has good biocompatible properties. Fe
3 O4 /VCO preparation was successfully synthesized using the coprecipitation method. The Fe3 O4 nanoparticles obtained were characterized by using XRD and SEM. The XRD results showed a particle size was 11.28 nm. These results were well confirmed using SEM characterization, which showed that the particle size was 11.34 nm. FTIR characterization shows the bond -CH-(CH2 ) with an asymmetric vibration model that experiences a shift in the peak vibration on the magnetic fluid sample, and it is a representation presence of oleic acid as one of the substances in the VCO surfactant. Furthermore, a new peak with the -COO- bond shows carboxylic acids as evidence of the combination of symmetrical bonding with surface molecular bonds. This indicates that the addition of VCO surfactants can reduce the agglomeration of magnetite nanoparticles. To determine the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) value we used magneto-thermal characterization. From the analysis, SAR value of magnetic fluid indicates 1.659 and 2.021 W/g for the Fe3 O4 /VCO ratio of 1 : 3.5 and 1 : 4.5, respectively. From these results, the magnetic fluid of Fe3 O4 /VCO is a potential candidate as a material for hyperthermia therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Nicotine dependence can cause numerous adverse effects, especially cardiovascular, cancer, respiratory, and gastrointestinal diseases. In order to minimize the manifestation of nicotine, inhibition on the receptor's binding site is needed. Our previous in silico study shows the activity of several bioactive compounds from Camelia sinensis, Orthosipon aristatus, and Moringa oleifera might be potent as α-3 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. Thus, in this present study, we extend the screening of inhibitor potency from Kaempferia pandurata, Camelia sinensis, Centella asiatica, Moringa oleifera, and Orthosipon aristatus bioactive compounds against the α-2 NAchR. In silico approach was performed to screen and predict the possibility of drug-likeness and medicinal plant properties of bioactive compounds. The 2D and 3D structures of ligands and protein were retrieved from PubChem and SWISS Model, respectively. The molecular docking strategy and optimization, also visualization were occupied as our previous study. The present findings show that the bioactive compounds from K. pandurata, C. sinensis, C. asiatica, M. oleifera, and O. aristatus have the possibility to be potential α-5 NAchR inhibitor.

SNAKES ,COLUBRIDAE ,ECOSYSTEMS ,BAMBOO ,FROGS - Abstract
Foraging behaviour of snake can be distinguished by their environments to be an aquatic, semi-aquatic, terrestrial, or fossorial snakes. Here, we recorded not only a foraging behaviour of water snake but also other snakes that have habits to be near the water sources. Snakes at seven water sources in Malang are identified and grouped into Colubridae Family and Elapidae Family. Water snakes are usually found hang on branches and wide leaves over the slowly-flowed stream. We found a Fowlea melanzostus that active during the day, and eating Fejervarya limnocharis. The most common species was Fowlea melanzostus piscator and it is active during the day and night. Two of the four species found are arboreal snake, they are Dendrelaphis pictus and Ahaetulla prasina. Both arboreal snakes are found not only during the night but also during the day. We found one individual of Ahaetulla prasina that was hanging on a bamboo stick while eating Chalcorana chalconota during the day. Most of the water sources in Malang have been dominated by Chalcorana chalconota. It makes Bungarus candidus and Coelognathus flavolineatus also found within this ecosystem. Besides preying on the frog, this snake also preys other's snake and mouse which are also found in nocturnals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Oxidative stress is a state of imbalance of free radicals in the cells and is one of the causes of various diseases in humans. One method that is thought to reduce oxidative stress is calorie restriction or fasting. However, its effects remain unclear. This study was conducted to determine the effect of intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting on the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) as an oxidative stress marker in the liver and plasma of New Zealand White rabbits. Fifteen of New Zealand White rabbits were divided into three groups (intermittent fasting (IF), prolonged fasting (PF), and control). MDA was measured in plasma and liver homogenate using spectrophotometry. The results were analyzed using One-way ANOVA test. The liver MDA level was decreased in the IF group, but not significant. However, there was a significant increase in plasma MDA levels both in the IF and PF groups. Moreover, liver MDA level was increased in PF group, although it was not significant. In conclusion, intermittent and prolonged fasting could increase plasma MDA levels significantly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ladybugs "Oteng-oteng" (Epilachna sparsa) are often found in eggplant fields and eat eggplant leaves. This condition causes stunted growth of eggplants and material loss for farmers. Although quite effective, synthetic pesticides can pollute the environment, be resistant to the pest, and harm human health. To overcome it, natural pesticides or biopesticides are used. Citrus hystrix leaves is one of plants used as antifeedant. This preliminary study aims to determine effectiveness of Citrus hystrix leaves extract as antifeedant against Epilachna sparsa. GC-MS analysis showed the presence of farnesol, caryophyllene oxide, nerodilol, citronellol, and citronellal as known insect repellents. The chloroform extract of C. hystrix leaves was smeared on the eggplant leaves, observed for 3 days, and analyzed to know the effectiveness of the treatment. As a result, the C. hystrix leaves extract was less effective of being used as an antifeedant against E. sparsa with eating inhibition value (%PM) of 32.35% based on the weight of the leaves eaten by E. sparsa.

We considered a mathematical model of the spread of the HIV-AIDS (Human Immunodeficiency Virus - Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndromedisease). The model is of the type of SIA (Susceptible, Infected, AIDS cases). The total population was subdivided into three compartments, that is, S (Susceptible group), I (Infected group) and A (AIDS cases group), as the name suggests, in order to form the SIA model. We used the fourth order Runge-Kutta method for solving the model. We took secondary data available in the literature for parameters and initial conditions that we used in our simulations. The resulting Runge-Kutta solutions provided behaviour and prediction of the spread of the HIV-AIDS disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Hypertension is a high risk of heart disease and stroke, which is caused by vasoconstrictive arteries due to angiotensin II binds to angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R). Treatment of hypertension using the drugs angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) causes side effects of headaches, constipation, and diuretics. Phenolic compounds (10-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 6-gingerol) from red ginger (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum) were used for hypertensive herbal medicines. This study aims to predict the potency of 10-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 6-gingerol as AT1R antagonist by bioinformatics approach. This research was conducted using physicochemical properties, Pa test, pharmacokinetic test, and molecular docking of the three gingerol compounds and Losartan as drug control. The results show that 10-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 6-gingerol have good oral bioavailability, good vasodilator potential (Pa >7), hepatoprotective potential, vasoprotective potential, and antioxidant potential. Based on pharmacokinetic absorption, distribution, and excretion test, the three gingerol compounds showed higher results compared to the Losartan. The toxicity of the gingerol compounds is low, not hepatotoxic, whereas Losartan is hepatotoxic. Molecular docking showed that the three gingerol compounds and the Losartan were on one side of the binding to AT1R. The conclusion of this study is red ginger has potency as a candidate for oral drug hypertension. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) is a severe disease that reduces rice crop yields. It is caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae (Xoo). The BLB disease can be manage through some ways, such as the adoption of BLB resistant varieties. It is necessary to investigate this disease because of the BLB outbreak cases in several regions in Indonesia, especially in West Java as the center of rice production. This study aimed to identify the Xoo from ten districts in West Java by applying diagnostic molecular markers for Xoo (XO, Xoo4009, and Xoo2976) using colony PCR and assess the virulence level of in vivo pathogenicity test using resistant varieties (IRBB7 and Conde) and susceptible varieties (IR64 and TN 1). The bacterial isolation resulted 50 isolates and detected four positive Xoo isolates i.e. Xoo-6 (Cicalengka, Bandung), Xoo-17 (Sindang Karya, Karawang), Xoo-19 (Rawamerta, Karawang), and Xoo-21 (Teluk Jambe, Karawang) and showed 98% similarities. The highest level of virulence of isolates was found in Xoo-6 and the lowest level was found in Xoo-21 isolates. The BLB disease intensity in the vegetative phased plants was higher than generative phased. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The consumption of LCS in Indonesia was recorded at 1,100,000 million tons in 2018. The decrease in the corrosion rate is inhibited by the lignin-inhibition method. This study was conducted on the effectiveness of Borassus flabellifer fiber lignin extract as a green inhibitor of corrosion in LCS. Literature review using relevant articles based on bibliometric and molecular designs simulation method omits was used. The molecular design simulation shows that inhibition of LCS by lignin occurs through an electron exchange reaction between oxygen atoms in aromatic rings of lignin and the d-orbitals of Fe atoms on the LCS surface in acidic media. The lignin coats LCS and blocks oxygen atom from direct contact, so the corrosion rate decreases by up to 37.5% compared with untreated LCS. Borassus flabellifer fiber is widely distributed in Indonesia that is not utilized and rich in lignin content. It is estimated that 93,000-186,000 tons of Borassus flabellifer fiber are produced 17,670-35,340 tons of lignin every day, which can coat 476.16-952.32 million m
2 LCS. This is high to be developed as a prevention method of LCS corrosion in the future because of (1) high raw material reduction, (2) high lignin extraction product from Borassus flabellifer fiber, (3) inhibitor application in LCS, and (4) its inhibitory power against high corrosion rates.

Hyperglycemia is the main hallmark of DM, which is caused by elevated levels of Advanced Glycation-End Products (AGE) and Receptor for AGE (RAGE) interaction. AGE-RAGE interaction further develops a progressive diabetic complication due to excessive free radical production. Hydrogen-rich water (HW) are known to have a beneficial effect on health as an antioxidant and anti-inflammation. The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of HW on the AGE-RAGE expression in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Rats divided randomly into five groups: N (healthy rats); DM (STZ + High-fat diet (HFD)) without additional treatment); DM + Met (DM + metformin dose 45 mg/kg BW); DM + HW (DM + Hydrogen-rich water); and DM + MH (DM + combination metformin and hydrogen-rich water). Rats were treated with HW or metformin for fourteen days and given per orally per day. At the end of treatment, rats were sacrificed and the pancreas was collected. AGE-RAGE expression was determined using the immunohistochemistry method. Our result suggested that either HW or HW combined with metformin declines AGE-RAGE expression significantly (p < 0.05) compared to DM rats. HW is expected to delayed organ damage by improves AGE-RAGE expression in STZ-induced diabetic rats. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Tuberculosis (TB) caused by infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTb) has a complex immunological response that leading to a variety of lung pathology, as reflected on Chest X-ray (CXR) imaging. Tumor Necrosis Factor- a (TNF-α) and Interleukin-17 (IL-17) are also pro-inflammatory cytokines secreted as a response of MTb infection. Both have pleiotropic effects and excessive expressions are associated with lung damage. This study aims to determine the correlation between levels of TNF-α and IL-17 based on lung damage from CXR in paediatric TB. This is a cross-sectional study. The subjects include 38 TB patients divided into 3 groups; mild, moderate, and severe lung damage based on CXR, from January 2019 to July 2020. Plasma TNF-α and IL-17 levels measured using ELISA then compared to each group. There is a significant difference in TNF-α levels between mild vs moderate (p = 0.002), mild vs severe (p = 0.000), and moderate vs severe lung damage (p = 0.001). A positive correlation was also found between TNF-α levels and lung damage (p = 0.000, r = 0.796), whereas IL-17 shows no significant difference (p = 0.538). Increasing TNF-α level, but not IL-17, is associated with severity of lung damage in paediatric TB. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Obesity remains a national and global problem because its prevalence still increases, leading to various dangerous degenerative diseases. One way to tackle obesity is by taking drugs that can reduce fat and carbohydrate intake, such as orlistat and acarbose. However, both of these drugs have unwanted side effects, so a safer exploration of anti-obesity herbal is still needed to replace them. Previous studies have shown that ethanol extracts of cucumber mesocarp can inhibit pancreatic lipase. In this study, the hot water extract of cucumber mesocarp powder was tested as a pancreatic lipase inhibitor in vitro and an α-amylase inhibitor in silico. The results show that cucumber mesocarp powder has been successfully produced by freeze-drying method; TPC and TFC value of brewed cucumber mesocarp powder are 0.0218 % and 0.0278 %, respectively. At the same mass of powder, brewed cucumber mesocarp powder has inhibition power against pancreatic lipase 3.44 times higher than orlistat. In comparison, in silico test result shows that pinocembrin and cucurbitacin A contained in cucumber able to bind to the active site of the α-amylase enzyme, so the cucumber mesocarp powder has great potential as anti-obesity agents.

LIPASES ,ASPERGILLUS ,FILAMENTOUS fungi ,OLIVE oil ,SPEED ,INDUSTRIAL costs - Abstract
Lipase is an industrially important enzyme and is usually obtained from microorganisms, especially filamentous fungi, producing it in a high amount. The method commonly used to produce lipase from filamentous fungi is Submerged Fermentation (SmF) with agitation. However, agitation requires energy and high production cost. Hence, reducing the use of agitation is needed. This research aims to observe the influence of agitation speed toward colony growth, lipase productivity, and nutrient absorption from Indonesian Aspergillus aculeatus Ms.11 in broth medium. Aspergillus aculeatus Ms.11 was inoculated into 50 mL fermentation medium, which contains 1% of olive oil and glucose mixture with 1:1 comparison. Incubation was done using varied agitation speed (0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 rpm) at 30 °C for 96 h. Relative activity lipase productivity, enzyme-specific activity, and glucose and nitrogen consumption were determined after the incubation. The results show that the highest lipase activity (6.33 U/mL) and lipase specific activity (0.10 U/mg) are observed at 0 rpm, while the highest lipase productivity (0.43 U/mg) is observed at 50 rpm. We concluded that maximum lipase production from Ms. 11 can be obtained using low agitation speed. Further study to optimize carbon and nitrogen sources is suggested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

TYPE 2 diabetes ,PHENOLS ,AMYLASES ,HYPERGLYCEMIA - Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a disease caused by abnormalities in the pancreas due to impaired insulin secretion or the inability to use the insulin produced effectively, which treats hyperglycemia. Indonesia ranks 4 in the world with the highest number of diabetes mellitus sufferers, namely 8.4 million people, and will continue to increase to 21.2 million people in 2030. α-Amylase (alpha-1,4glucan-4-glucanohydrolase) is a catalyst hydrolyzing Alpha-1,4-glycosidic polysaccharides of starch become oligosaccharides then digested further to produce glucose. In controlling glucose in people with DMT2, it is necessary to consider the choice of oral antidiabetic drugs (OAD) because of their many side effects. The anti-diabetic activity of Sapodilla leaf extract (Manilkara zapota) has been proven to show real antidiabetic activity by showing a hypoglycemic effect. Phenolic compounds have biological activity as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, antifungal, antidiabetic. This study aimed to obtain a prediction of the antidiabetic potential of the phenolic compounds of Sapodilla leaf extract (Manilkara zapota) in inhibiting the α-Amylase enzyme in type 2 DM patients. The method used in this study was to predict the pharmacokinetics of ADMET using the online pkCSM webserver. At the outset, we downloaded a copy of the test of compound SMILES using the PubChem webserver, Molecular docking using PyRx 0.8, PyMol, and Discovery Studio software. The findings suggested that the phenolic group compounds are predicted to have good absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity values, and the combination of free energy values of phenolic compounds produced a synergistic effect. The bond between sitagliptin and the α-amylase enzyme was the most stable domain compared to others. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
