Trichogaster trichopterus is a freshwater fish commonly found in swampy and lowland waters, and it is highly valued for its taste and economic potential. However, in its natural habitat as well as in aquaculture systems, this species is often exposed to various environmental stressors that increase its susceptibility to parasitic infections. This research was conducted from September 2024 to Ma…
Coral reefs play a crucial role in maintaining the stability of marine ecosystems. Healthy coral growth is often indicated by the presence of symbiotic zooxanthellae within the coral tissue. The density of zooxanthellae varies and is influenced by several factors. Depth affects these limiting factors—such as light intensity, temperature, and ocean acidity—which in turn impacts zooxanthellae…
Microplastic pollution in the marine environment has become a critical environmental issue that requires a biological remediation approach. The coastal waters of Bagansiapiapi, Riau Province, are an important fishery area potentially affected by microplastic contamination. This study aims to isolate and identify microplastic-degrading bacteria from sediments in the waters of Bagansiapiapi, Riau…
The Siak River experienced lead (Pb) heavy metal pollution in January 2024 ranging from 0.072 - 0.113 mg/L. Very high Pb levels affect the structure of fish organs, especially the kidneys. This study aims to determine the Pb levels in the waters of the Siak River and changes in the macroscopic and microscopic structure of the kidney organs of the catfish Hemibagrus nemurus (Valenciennes, 1840).…
Rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) merupakan tanaman herbal potensial, yang umumnya dibudidayakan pada musim penghujan karena membutuhkan air yang cukup di fase vegetatifnya. Namun, perubahan iklim menjadi tantangan dalam pembudidayaan tanaman rosella karena dapat memicu kondisi cekaman kekeringan, sehingga perlu dilakukan pengaturan interval penyiraman. Pengaturan interval penyiraman tidak hanya…
Tampoi leaves (Baccaurea macrocarpa (Miq.) Mull.Arg.) are known to contain various secondary metabolites that contribute to their biological activities, including antioxidant and antibacterial properties, as well as the ability to enhance erythrocyte and hemoglobin levels. This study aimed to comprehensively identify the phytochemical profile of tampoi leaves as a basis for understanding the me…
Dadap merah (Erythrina crista-galli) is a plant from the Fabaceae family which has a tree habitus and trifoliate compound leaves. Dadap merah leaf have potential as medicinal plants. This study aims to characterize the anatomical structure and determine the content of metabolite compounds in dadap merah leaves. Methods used were the paraffin method, the paradermal, and histochemistry. The anato…
Coelogyne rochussenii is a native Indonesian orchid species threatened with extinction due to widespread illegal harvesting from its natural habitat. Therefore, conservation efforts are essential, including propagation through in vitro culture. The Vacint and Went (VW) medium is a commonly used basic medium for orchid propagation in vitro. Still, it lacks vitamins, requiring the addition of org…

ABSTRAK In the implementation of excavation work on the Revitalization of Lake Bakuok project in Kampar Regency, heavy equipment assistance is needed to facilitate the work process, one of which is in excavation and soil transportation. The gradual or relay excavation method causes problems such as high equipment efficiency and fuel consumption so that operational costs increase and the du…
ABSTRACT Concrete is one of the main construction materials widely used in infrastructure development due to its high compressive strength and good durability. However, achieving optimal compressive strength typically requires a relatively long curing period, approximately 28 days. To address this limitation, admixtures such as Bestmittel are used to accelerate the hardening process and improv…
