Porites Coral

Porites merupakan genus karang yang memiliki persebaran luas di Indonesia, termasuk perairan Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta. Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa bakteri simbion karang Porites memiliki potensi antibakteri dalam menanggulangi bakteri patogen. Penelitian ini betujuan untuk mengetahui jenis bakteri simbion karang Porites dari Perairan Gunungkidul Yogyakarta yang memiliki aktivitas antibakteri patogen S. aureus dan E. coli. Bakteri simbion diisolasi dari fragmen jaringan karang dengan pengenceran bertingkat, kemudian uji aktivitas antibakteri dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode overlay dan difusi paperdisk. Delapan dari 64 isolat aktif menghambat kedua bakteri patogen Staphylococcus aureus dan Escherichia coli. Dua diantaranya merupakan isolat unggul yang menunjukkan aktivitas antibakteri paling baik. Kedua isolat selanjutnya diidentifikasi karakteristik molekular DNA dengan sekuen gen 16S rRNA. Hasil identifikasi 16S rRNA menunjukkan isolat GKP1.4.3 memiliki kesamaan 99% dengan Bacillus pumilus strain NBRC 12092, dan isolat GKP3.2.2 memiliki kesamaan 99% dengan Vibrio natriegens strain NBRC 15636.Porites is a coral which has distributed widely in Indonesia, including Gunungkidul Waters, Yogyakarta. Research has shown that Porites coral symbiont bacteria have antibacterial potency against pathogenic bacteria.This study aims to determine the type of Porites coral symbiont bacteria collected from the waters of Gunungkidul Yogyakarta which has antibacterial activity of S. aureus and E. coli. Bacteria symbionts were isolated from coral tissue fragments by serial dillution method, while antibacterial activity was performed by using overlay and paperdisk diffusion method. Eight of the 64 active isolates inhibited both pathogenic bacteria S. aureus and E. coli. Two of 8 isolates showed stronger antibacterial activity. The two isolates subsequently identified the molecular characteristics of DNA with the 16S rRNA gene sequence. The identification of 16S rRNA showed that GKP1.4.3 isolate had 99% similarity with Bacillus pumilus strain NBRC 12092, and GKP3.2.2 isolate had 99% similarity with Vibrio natriegens strain NBRC 15636.

Borassus flabellifer vinegar–graphene quantum dots (BFV-GQDs) were successfully synthesized using a pyrolysis method with Borassus flabellifer vinegar (BFV) as the precursor. All the samples were characterized using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The antibacterial activities of BFV-GQDs against strains of Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) were determined using the agar well diffusion method for preliminary screening, while minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) were determined using the broth macro-dilution method. The zones of inhibition were compared with those of citric acid–graphene quantum dots (CA-GQDs). It was observed that the synthesized BFV-GQDs demonstrated excellent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (82.3%) and good antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (73.3%). The MIC of BFV-GQDs against E. coli was 6.25 mg/mL and S. aureus was 12.5 mg/mL, whereas the MBC of BFV-GQDs against E. coli was 12.5 mg/mL and S. aureus was 25.0 mg/mL.

Sponge organisms produce bioactive compounds that are toxic as a means of self-defense. The compound is known to have the potential as an antibacterial and anti-UV which can absorb sunlight with the potential to be used as a material for making sunscreen. The purpose of this study was to obtain antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and anti-UV activity from crude extracts and sponges fractions. The antibacterial test done by agar diffusion method (Kirby and Bauer diffusion disc) and the crude extract and the active fraction of antibacterial compounds were tested in a UV spectrophotometer to see its anti-UV activity. As a result, 4 species of sponges were extracted and partitioned into water fractions, methanol fractions, and n-hexane fractions. All samples were tested for antibacterial activity and the results showed antibacterial activity against S. aureus by Plakortis sp. in crude extract (9 mm) and water fraction (8.6 mm), Agelas sp. in crude extract (7 mm) and in E. coli bacteria shown by Plakortis sp. in crude extract (12.6 mm) and water fraction (9 mm), Liosina sp. in the water fraction (7.6 mm), Haliclona sp. in the water fraction (8 mm) and Agelassp. in crude extract (10.3 mm). Crude extracts and water fractions were tested using a UV spectrophotometer for anti-UV testing, the results showed that crude extract and all the water fractions of four species sponge could absorb UV-B (λ 290-320 nm) and UV-A (λ 320-400 nm).Keywords: sponges, antibacterial, partition, anti-UV

New materials with good antibacterial activity and less toxicity to other species have attracted numerous research interests. Modified Hummers method was used for preparing graphene oxide (GO). Zinc oxide/graphene oxide (ZnO/GO) nanocomposites were synthesized with three different ratios (0.5:1, 1:1, and 2:1) by solution precipitation method. The ZnO/GO nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X–ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Tellerspecific surface area, and transmission electron microscopy image. The characterization results showed that ZnO nanoparticles with a mean size of 12–18 nm were randomly decorated on the surfaces and edges of GO sheets. ZnO/GO 1:1 with a high specific surface area of 65 m2/g was obtained. The antibacterial activity of ZnO, GO, and ZnO/GO was tested against Gram negative bacteria escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram positive bacteria staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) using well diffusion method. The test results confirmed that antibacterial activity of ZnO/GO was higher than that of GO and ZnO. Additionally, the ZnO/GO with the ratio of 1:1 is the strongest activity and more active against S. aureus than against E. coli and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of ZnO/GO 1:1 is 80 µg/mL for S. aureus and 160 µg/mL for E. coli. This novel nanocomposite could be used as a potential material for antimicrobial application.
