"Lichens, a unique symbiosis between a mycobiont and a photobiont organism, are known to produce metabolites that can be tapped as biopesticides for agriculture. Such property of the fruticose lichen Ramalina collected within Guimaras Island, Philippines was investigated in this study. A total of 195 specimens were collected and characterized using conventional morphological and chemical analyses. These lichens were identified as Ramalina farinacea, R. roesleri, and R. nervulosa. To test their potential application in agriculture, nine lichen specimens were extracted with acetone and assayed for its inhibitory activities against test bacteria, fungi, and weedy plants. All nine lichen extracts inhibited Pseudomonas aeruginosa (>19 mm ZOI) while only seven lichen extracts inhibited Staphylococcus aureus (13–19 mm ZOI). No inhibitory activity was observed among the fungal plant pathogens Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani, F. verticillioides, Colletotrichum capsici, and C. gleosporioides, and on the Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Pectobacterium carotovorum var. carotovorum. A decrease in the root (up to 27% reduction) and shoot (up to 39% reduction) lengths, and leaf chlorophyll content (up to 44% reduction) of rice weeds Fimbristylis miliacea, Leptochloa chinensis and weedy rice (Oryza sp.) were also observed. These results, therefore, suggested that the lichen crude extract from Ramalina is a potential biological control for weed management."

"Aktivitas antropogenik merupakan salah satu penyebab akumulasi logam berat tembaga (Cu) pada tanah. Kadar tembaga berlebih dapat menyebabkan toksisitas pada tanaman, salah satunya adalah tanaman jahe merah (Zingiber officinale var. Rubrum) yang banyak dimanfaatkan oleh masyarakat sebagai bahan baku obat. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mempelajari pengaruh pemberian logam berat tembaga pada pertumbuhan dan mengetahui profil senyawa metabolomik rimpang jahe merah di bawah paparan tembaga (CuCl2) dengan konsentrasi 0 ppm (kontrol), 50 ppm, 100 ppm, dan 150 ppm. Penelitian yang bersifat eksperimental ini dilakukan menggunakan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL), menggunakan 4 perlakuan berbeda dengan 6 sampel pengulangan pada setiap perlakuan. Parameter pertumbuhan yang diukur adalah laju pertumbuhan, kadar air rimpang, gejala toksisitas yang dialami tanaman, dan profil metabolomik yang dianalisis menggunakan HPLC dan dilakukan pengolahan data dengan Principal Component Analysis dan Hierarchical Component Analysis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa laju pertumbuhan dan gejala toksisitas pemberian logam tembaga mulai terlihat pada konsentrasi 100 ppm dan 150 ppm. Tanaman jahe merah mampu mentolerir hingga konsentrasi 50 ppm Cu dilihat dari pertumbuhan tanaman yang normal dan belum munculnya gejala toksisitas. Hasil pengolahan PCA dan HCA menunjukkan bahwa konsentrasi Cu 150 ppm memiliki profil metabolomik yang sangat berbeda dibanding perlakuan konsentrasi lainnya.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder causing insulin regulation to be disrupted and may lead to diabetic kidney disease (DKD) complication. The current gold standard for assessing kidney function based on eGFR and albuminuria have some limitations. Therefore, a new method for assessing kidney function may be useful for a better therapeutic target discovery, such as through metabolomics approach. This study aims to compare the serum metabolite profiles of T2DM patients consuming metformin-glimepiride with low (n=16) and high (n=16) risk of DKD based on KDIGO 2022. A cross-sectional study with consecutive sampling method was carried out at Puskesmas Pasar Minggu and RSUD Jatipadang. A total of 32 participants fulfilled the inclusion criteria were compared for their metabolite profiles. Blood, urine, baseline and clinical characteristics data were collected to perform untargeted metabolomics analysis using a validated LC/MS-QTOF method. Data processing was performed using MetaboAnalyst 5.0 and SPSS 24.0. Metabolites were identified by Metlin, HMDB, PubChem, and KEGG databases. There were no significant differences among all basic and clinical characteristics of the participants. There were significant differences of metabolite expression between two sample groups. Based on the applied parameters VIP score >1; FC>1.2; p-value <0.05; AUC >0.65, three metabolites were found to have potential as biomarker in the development of DKD, namely acetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine (AFMK), phosphatydilinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), and cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG). Based on these metabolites, three metabolic pathways were detected and found to be potentially involved in the development of DKD, namely tryptophan metabolism, phosphatidylinositol metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism."

"Serbuk kering talus lichen Ramalina Javanica Nyi, yang dikumpulkan dari Kebun Raya Nasional Cibodas, Jawa Barat, pertama-tama diekstraksi sinambung dengan n-heksana menggunakan soklet. Ekstraks dari hasil ekstraksi pertama kemudian dipisahkan melalui kromatografi kolom menggunakan campuran n-heksana : chloroform = 1 : I (v/v). Dan pemisahan ini dapat diisolasi 90 mg kristal murni jingga dengan titik leleh 203°C (Senyawa A).Ampas kering dari ekstraksi pertama itu, kemudian melalui cara yang sama, diekstraksi lebih lanjut dengan aseton. Hasilnya kemudian dipisahkan melalui kromatografi lapis tipis preparatif (sebagai fasa mobil: campuran n-heksana : etil asetat = 3:2). Dan pemisahan ini dapat dihasillcan 27 mg serbuk kuning dengan titik leleh = 153°C (Senyawa B).Berdasarkan pada sifat fisik (titik leleh dan putaran optis) dan data perbandingan spektroskopi dapat ditentukan struktur dua senyawa yang diisolasi itu. Senyawa A dikenal sebagai parietin (C16 H12 Os). Sementara senyawa B merupakan suatu senyawa baru golongan antrakuinonDari jenis jenis senyawa yang diketemukan di dalam lichen. Kerangka dasarnya mirip parietin, tetapi rantai sampingnya lebih panjang daripada gugus yang terdapat pada parietin, dengan satu pusat asimetrik pada C-1?. Oleh karena itu diusulkan senyawa B sebagai R- (+}- 1,8- dihidroksi -3- (1'- hidroksi -3'-butanoil) -6-metoksi antrakuinon (C19 H16 O7).Dari hasil uji pendahuluan aktivitas antibakteri dengan menggunakan metoda Konsentrasi Hambatan Minimum (KHM) dan metoda difusi agar terhadap Staphylococcus aureus dan Escherichia coli, menunjukkan bahwa ekstraks dari fraksi n-heksana dan aseton mempunyai aktivitas yang rendah dibandingkan dengan antibiotik ampisilin (memberikan hasil negatif).

The dried powder of thallus lichen Ramalina Javanica Nyl_ which collected from the National Botanical Garden, Cibodas, West Java, first continuously extracted with n-heksane by using sohxlet apparatus. The raw extract from the first extraction was then separated over coloumn chromatography by using mixture of n-heksane : chloroform = 1: 1 (vlv) as eluent. From this separation can be isolated 90 mg pure orange crystal with melting point = 203°C (Compound A).The dried residu from the first extraction, was then by same way, continuously extracted with acetone. The resulted extract was then separated over preparative thin layer chromatography (mixture of n-heksane : ethyl acetate = 3 : 2 as mobile phase). From this separation can be yielded 27 mg yellow powder with melting point = 253°C (Compound B).Based on the physical properties (melting point and optical rotation), spectroscophical and comperative data can be elucidated the structure both isolated compounds. Compound A was identified as (C16H12O5), meanwhile compound B was proposed as new compound at the anthraquinone's class of the lichen constituent types. Its base skeleton likes parietin, but its side chain is longer than side chain of parietin, with one assyrnetric center at the C-1'. Therefore it is proposed that compound B as R- (+) -1,8-dihidroxy -3- (1' -hidroxy -3' -butanoyl) -6-methoxy anthraquinone (C 19H16 O7).The result of antibacterial activity pretest using concentration minimum inhibition and gel diffuse method against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli showed that raw extract from n-heksane and acetone fraction has low activity compared with amphicylin antibiotic (given negative result)."

"Using panel data gathered from 16 regions of the Philippines for the period 2009–11, this paper investigates the relationship between tourism and crime. The findings of the study show that the relation between tourism and crime may largely depend on the characteristics of visitors and the types of crime. For all types of crime and their aggregate, no significant correlation between the crime rate (defined as the number of crime cases divided by population) and total tourist arrivals is found. However, a statistically significant positive relation is found between foreign tourism and robbery and theft cases as well as between overseas Filipino tourism and robbery. On the other hand, domestic tourism is not significantly correlated with any of the four types of crimes. These results, together with a strong evidence of the negative relationship between crime and the crime clearance efficiency, present much opportunity for policy intervention in order to minimize the crime externality of the country’s tourism-led development strategy."
