Phylogenetic Evidence that Two Submerged-Habitat Fungal Species, Speiropsis pedatospora and Xylomyces chlamydosporus, Belong to the Order Jahnulales Insertae Sedis Dothideomycetes
(2008)The genera Speiropsis and Xylomyces are anomorph fungi. The taxonomic address for the fungi has been unclear. In this study, observation of morphological traits indicates that they have a unique pattern of mycelia with ... -
Stability of Two Probiotics Bacteria of Goat Milk Yoghurt in Rat Digestive Tract
(2008)Increased age will affect the bacterial population of the human digestive tract, in which many bacteria will adapt and colonize different sites. Combining probiotics and prebiotics in what has been called a synbiotic could ... -
Free-Living Ice-Nucleating Active Bacteria from High Mountain Lake Habitats
(2008)We collected the culturable heterotrophic bacteria from oligotrophic high mountain lake habitats and tested their capability to induce ice formation. Direct plating was carried out using low-nutrient medium at a temperature ... -
Recent Developments in the Bioconversion of Lignocelluloses into Ethanol
(2008)Ethanol has been commercially produced using sugars derived from sugarcane and corn. Recently, research has been focused on the development of thermotolerant and ethanol-tolerant yeast or bacteria that are able to produce ... -
Biosynthesis of Polyamide 4, a Biobased and Biodegradable Polymer
(2008)Polyamide 4, which is composed of repeating unit of g-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is a biobased and biodegradable polymer since it can be synthesized from renewable material instead of fossil-based material. GABA is produced ... -
Characteristics of Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria Isolated from Acid Soil of Cikopomayak, West Java, Indonesia
(2008)Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria were isolated from acid soil from Cikopomayak. Microbiological assay showed that the bacteria were Gram negative, rod-shaped, and lacked red pigment on Pikovskaya medium. Isolate A synthesized ... -
The Influence of Oil Concentration, Nitrogen and Phosphorus Composition on Crude Oil Biodegradation by Epyzim and Mixed Cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Arthrobacter simplex
(2008)Biological methods have gained attention as an alternative treatment for oil degradation in pollution remediation. External and internal factors have a great influence on crude oil biodegradation. This experiment studied ... -
Defense against Biotic and Abiotic Stresses in Peat-Soil-Agriculture
(2008)The 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase (EC4.1.99.4) is an enzyme produced by some soil bacteria to degrade ACC (the immediate precursor of ethylene) to reduce ethylene biosynthesis in higher plants. Increased ... -
Analysis of Pink Pigmented Facultative Methylotroph Bacteria from Human Environments
(2008)The formation of pink biofilm in wet places are usually correlated with chlorine-resistant pink pigmented facultative methylotrophs (PPFM). In this study we investigated the presence of PPFM bacteria through bacterial ... -
Optimum Concentration of Glucose and Orange II for Growth and Decolorization of Orange II by Enterococcus faecalis ID6017 under Static Culture
(2008)Growth and decolorization performance of bacterial grown on azodyes-containing-medium is influenced by various concentrations of carbon sources and azodyes. The optimum level of glucose and Orange II concentration for ... -
Ecological Role of A Softcoral-Associated Bacterium Arthrobacter sp. on Marine Biofilm-Forming Bacteria
(2008)A marine bacterium species associated with softcoral Sinularia sp. collected from vicinity of Peucang island, Ujung Kulon, West Java, was successfully screened for estimating its ecological role through inhibiting marine ... -
Ecological Approach to Unravel Streptomycete Diversity as an Unsurpassed Sources of Natural Bioactive Products
(2008)Search and discovery for natural bioactive products have been so important to control the emergence of antibiotic resistant microbial pathogens. Therefore, novel microorganisms that produce such metabolites is extremely ... -
A Supplement Based on Zn-Enriched Virgin Coconut Oil as an Antifungal agent for Vaginal Candidiasis Patients
(2008)This research was conducted to investigate the amount of Candida albicans in vaginal secretion of Vaginal Candidiasis patients administered with Zn-enriched virgin coconut oil. Thirty respondents were selected based on ... -
Population Density of Wolbachia Bacteria and the Induction of the Popcorn-Effect in Drosophila melanogaster
(2008)Drosophila melanogaster is known to harbour Wolbachia bacteria that cause the early death of its adult host. The death occurs early as a result of cell rupture caused by the proliferation of Wolbachia within it. However, ... -
Distribution of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis in Various Tomato Production Centers in Sumatra and Java
(2008)Bacterial canker, caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis is a newly introduced disease of tomatoes in Indonesia. Its existence was first officially reported in 2004. The objective of this research was to ... -
Vegetative Compatibility Groups within Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae in Hokkaido-Japan
(2008)In Hokkaido, Fusarium basal rot, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae is one of the important constrains since 1973 which contributes to a significant loss in onion production, either in the fields or during storage. ... -
Identity and Sequence Diversity of Begomovirus Associated with Yellow Leaf Curl Disease of Tomato in Indonesia
(2008)Infection of tomato by Begomovirus is known to cause serious disease and yield losses. Samples of tomato plants showing typical symptoms of begomovirus infection were collected from eight locations in Java and Sumatra. ... -
Role of Bacteria in Tempe Bitter Taste Formation: Microbiological and Molecular Biological Analysis Based on 16S rRNA Gene
(2008)Tempe is traditional Indonesian food. It has a variety of tastes, sometimes with a hint of bitterness, which may differ in intensity. The cause of bitterness in tempe has never been reported previously. In this study, the ... -
Apparent Induction of Xylanase by Bacillus pumilus PU4-2 using Pretreated Substrates
(2008)Bacillus pumilus PU4-2 produces xylanase (β-1,4-D-xylan xylanohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.8) in wheat pollard with high activity. Water and NaOH-soaked pollard were used in this research to enhance the production of assayable ... -
The Effect of Mutation at Thr 295 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae eRF1 on Suppression of Nonsense Codons and eRF1 Structur
(2008)The termination of translation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is controlled by two interacting polypeptide chain release factors, eRF1, and eRF3. Two regions in eRF1, at position 281-305 and 411-415, were proposed to be ...
