Isolation, Identification and Sensitivity of Amilolitic Bacteria From Mangrove Ecosystem Sediment in Purnama Marine Station Dumai on the Pathogenic Bacteria

Litter from the weathering of dead mangrove stems and leaves contains a lot of starch which has potential to be degraded by amylolytic bacteria into simple compounds with the help of the amylase enzyme. Amylolytic bacteria are bacteria that hydrolyze starch into simpler compounds namely glucose with the help of the amylase enzyme. This study aims to 1) isolate, identify and test sensitivity of amylolytic bacterial isolates found at the Purnama Dumai Marine Station, 2) the ability of amylolytic bacterial isolates to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio alginolyticus) and 3) to determine the of amylolytic bacterial species by 16S rRNA sequence analysis. The results showed 10 bacterial isolates (TR 2, TR 6, TR 7, TR 9, TR 11, TR 13, TR 15, TR 16, TR 18 and TR 20) were able to inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria (E.coli, P.aeruginosa and V.alginolyticus). The sensitivity test of isolate TR 20 against E.coli was categorized into weak with inhibition zone diameter of 4.65 mm. Sensitivity of isolate TR 6 against P.aeruginosa was categorized into medium with inhibition zone diameter of 5.22 mm. Then sensitivity of isolate TR 11 against V.algynolyticus was categorized into medium with inhibition zone diameter of 5.55 mm. DNA analysis using 16S rRNA method and BLAST analysis showed similarity of each isolate. Isolate TR 6 was similar to Bacillus paramycoides strain MCCC 1A04098, isolate TR 11 was in a group of Enterobacter cloacae strain ATCC 13047 and TR 20 was in a group of Vibrio harveyi strains of NBRC 15634.

Effectiveness Test Of Nipah Extract AS Larvacide On Mosquito Larvae (Aedes Aegpti)

This research was conducted in January - February 2019. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of mangrove extracts on stems and fruit on the growth of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae and to know Lethal Concentration LC50 and Lethal Time LT50. The method used is the experimental method, with the experimental design is a completely randomized design (CRD). The treatment of nipah fruit and stem extract concentrations was 3%, 6% and 9% with contact time of 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 480 minutes and the number of replications 3 times with 2 trials. To find out (LC50) and (LT50), the data was analyzed using the SPSS program. The sample of this research is stem and nipah fruit taken in the mangrove area of Kayu Ara Village, Siak Regency. Aedes aegypti larvae are taken at a water reservoir next to the Arfaunas Mosque in Tampan District. The results showed that the stem and nipah fruit extracts had effective killing power against Aedes aegpti larvae. The extract that was more effective in killing mosquito larvae was the nipah fruit extract compared to the nipah stem extract seen in the number of larval deaths with LC50 = 3.398% and LT50 = 3.540 hours. This shows that the level of toxicity is quite toxic.

Analysis Concentration of Nitrate, Phosphate, Silicate and Relationship with Diatom Abudance in Waters Tanjung Tiram Distrcts Batu Bara Regency of North Sumatera Province

Input of nutrients into the waters from various human activities (residential, agriculture and industry) has the potential to cause changes in the physical, chemical and biological conditions of the waters. The study aims to determine the relationship of concentrations of nitrate, phosphate and silicate with the abundance of diatoms in the Tanjung Tiram waters. The method used is the survey method, the determination of the location of sampling is done by purposive sampling, data analysis (multiple regression). Based in the results of laboratory analysis nitrate concentrations ranged from 0,0819 – 0,1167 mg/l, the phosphate concentration ranged from 0,1002 – 0,1526 mg/l, and silicate concentration ranged from 0,04447 – 0,5418 mg/l. The abundance of diatoms in Tanjung Tiram waters ranged from 156,9 – 302,8 ind/l. The results of statistical analysis of the relationship of nitrate, phosphate and silicate with the abundance of diatoms are expressed in terms of equation Y = 350,906 – 58,065Nitrate– 2644,624phosphate+ 440,363Silicate. This statement explains the concentration of nitrate, phosphate related negative (-) to the abundance of diatoms and silicate positive (+) related to the abundance of diatom. This condition shows that the nutrient concentration in these waters is relatively high so that it affects the abundance of diatoms.
