AbstractExtracellular potential is an important parameter which indicates the electrical activity of live cells. Membrane excitability in osteoblasts plays a key role in modulating the electrical activity in the presence of chemical agents. The complexity of cell signal makes interpretation of the cellular response to a chemical agent very difficult. By analyzing shifts in the signal power spectrum, it is possible to determine a frequency spectrum also known as Signature Pattern Vectors (SPV) specific to a chemical. It is also essential to characterize single cell sensitivity and response time for specific chemical agents for developing detect-to-warn biosensors. We used a 4x4 multiple Pt microelectrode array to spatially position single osteoblast cells, by using a gradient AC field. Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) and Wavelet Transformation (WT) analyses were used to extract information pertaining to the frequency of firing from the extracellular potential.

Abstract : Macrofungi or mushroom are cosmopolitan heterotrophic organisms which have a very important ecological role. Information on the presence and description of macrofungi can be used as a reference for conservation steps and future potential utilization. The purpose of this study was to provide  description of macro fungi and their potential utilization at Belitong Island. All macro fungi found were Basidiomycota. The identification results showd there were 11 species of mushrooms, i.e. Chlorophyllum molybdites, Lepiota sp., Marasmius sp., Parasola sp., Phallus indusiatus, Lentinus sp.1, Lentinus sp.2, Microporus sp., Polyporus cf. tricholoma, Russula sp., dan Schizophyllum commune. All mushrooms are decomposer at the study site. Some mushrooms have potential as food, medicine and source of other bioactive compounds. This paper explains how to use macroscopic characters to help the identification of macrofungi.Abstrak : Jamur makro merupakan organisme heterotof kosmopolitan yang memiliki peran ekologis yang sangat penting. Informasi mengenai keberadaan dan deskripsi jamur makro dapat dijadikan acuan untuk langkah konservasi serta pemanfaatan potensinya di masa mendatang. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menyediakan deskripsi jamur makro dan potensi pemanfaatannya di Pulau Belitong. Seluruh jamur makro yang ditemukan merupakan Filum Basidiomycota. Hasil identifikasi menunjukan terdapat 11 spesies jamur yaitu Chlorophyllum molybdites, Lepiota sp., Marasmius sp., Parasola sp., Phallus indusiatus, Lentinus sp.1, Lentinus sp.2, Microporus sp., Polyporus cf. tricholoma, Russula sp., dan Schizophyllum commune. Seluruh jamur merupakan dekomposer pada lokasi penelitian. Beberapa jamur berpotensi sebagai bahan pangan, obat, dan sumber senyawa bioaktif lainnya. Pada tulisan ini dijelaskan cara menggunakan karakter makroskopik untuk membantu identifikasi jamur.
