Judul: Identifikasi Bakteri Selulolitik Asal Tanah Situ Gede dengan Teknik Genetika Molekuler.
Abstrak: Cellulose is a biopolymer in nature which is dominant agricultural waste. Many practices degrade cellulose into glucose molecules by using cellulase enzyme. This research aim to identify the cellulolytic bacteria and to test cellulase activities. The methods are platting isolates, halo zone testing, DNA isolation, visualization of DNA fragmen by electrophoresis, 16S rDNA gene amplification by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), 16S rDNA gene divesity analysis with restriction enzymes, DNA sequensing analysis, and enzymatic assay using CMC selective media. Six isolates were analyzed by restriction enzyme and showed three diversity of based, its differences by size. The size of the bases are 1500 bp, 850 bp, and <850 bp. Sequensing DNA by GeneBank in NCBI web are 85% indentical between Cellvibrio fibrivorans to isolate D714 and then 81% identical to Cellvibrio gandavensis to isolate J531. Enzyme activities of isolates D714, D533, J731, and J531 has been tested enzyme to get the highest activity on seventh day is 0.1054 IU/mL, 0.0996 IU/mL, 0.101 IU/mL, and 0.9689 IU/mL.

Abstrak: Cellulase is an enzyme catalyzing hydrolysis of cellulose which usually consists of endoglucanases (EC.3.2.1.4), exoglucanases (EC.3.2.1.91) and β-glucosidases (EC.3.2.1.21). Cellulase is a very important enzyme due to its numerous industrial applications. The aim of this research were to isolate and identify cellulase-producing thermophilic bacteria that can be used to increase value added in oil palm industries. Samples of soil, empty fruit bunch compost and palm kernel meal were collected from oil palm plantation for obtained thermophilic bacteria. The samples were screened of cellulase-producing thermophilic bacteria by using a Congo Red method were made on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) agar plates. The bacterial cultures were incubated in a shaking incubator (140 rpm) at 50oC for 24 hours. The assay for the enzymatic activity was based on the release of glucose that was detected using 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS). In this research, 19 isolates of bacteria were isolated. It was found that 11 isolates of bacteria showed positive results with clear zone around the cultures by using Congo Red method. The result showed that isolates for CK1, EM4 and CK3 possesed the highest enzyme activity of 13.56, 12.50 and 10.49 U mL-1 for cellulase was detected at pH 7, respectively. The results of strain identification based on 16S rRNA showed that strain CK1, EM4 and CK3 were identified as Bacillus subtilis.

Judul: Integration of Islamic Stock Markets of OIC Countries Before and During the Russia-Ukraine War Crisis
Abstrak: Pasar saham yang terintegrasi memberikan dampak negatif seperti percepatan co-movement (pergerakan bersama) yang rentan terhadap guncangan ekonomi, maupun krisis pasar global ke pasar domestik. Salah satu krisis yang terjadi pada tahun 2022 adalah perang Rusia-Ukraina yang berdampak pada pasar saham, termasuk pada saham syariah yang dipercaya lebih tahan terhadap guncangan krisis global. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti perkembangan, integrasi dan respon lima pasar saham syariah negara OKI pada perang Rusia-Ukraina. Metode yang digunakan adalah VAR/VECM pada indeks DJIMMT25, SPSADS, SPSUAEDS, JII, DJIMT, SPBMIR, dan SPBMIU. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pergerakan yang sama pada pasar saham UAE dan Arab Saudi, sedangkan Turki mengalami tren positif selama perang. Pasar saham syariah negara OKI selama periode perang Rusia-Ukraina terkointegrasi, sementara pasar saham Malaysia memengaruhi pasar saham syariah empat negara OKI lainnya. Hasil IRF menunjukkan terdapat efek permanen pada volatilitas pasar saham syariah negara OKI akibat guncangan yang diberikan. Namun, respon volatilitas relatif kecil karena kontribusi guncangan lebih didominasi oleh pasar saham itu sendiri, An integrated stock market has negative impacts, such as accelerating co-movement, which is vulnerable to economic shocks and global market crises on the domestic market. One of the crises in 2022 was the Russia-Ukraine war which impacted the stock market, including Sharia stocks which were believed to be more resistant to the shocks of the global crisis. This study examines the development, integration, and response of OIC countries five Islamic stock markets in the Russia-Ukraine war. The method used is VAR/VECM on the DJIMMT25, SPSADS, SPSUUAEDS, JII, DJIMT, SPBMIR, and SPBMIU indices. The results show the same movement in the UAE and Saudi Arabia stock markets, while Turkey experienced a positive trend during the war. The Islamic stock market of the OIC countries during the Russia-Ukraine war was cointegrated. In contrast, the Malaysian stock market influenced the Islamic stock markets of the other four OIC countries. The IRF results show a permanent effect on the volatility of the Islamic stock market in OKI countries due to the shocks given. However, the volatility response is relatively small because the stock market itself dominates the contribution of shocks.
