AbstractSalted fish is an important source of protein and income in Bandung City, Indonesia. Meanwhile, salted fish products that are contaminated with aflatoxin-producing molds can pose a considerable hazard to consumers’ health. This study aims to determine the presence of aflatoxigenicAspergillussp. that contaminates salted fish products. A total of 8 samples of dried salted anchovy and 7 samples of dried salted cotton fish from 8 retailers in traditional market were analyzed for fungal contamination, sample physicochemical factors, and prevalence of aflatoxigenicAspergillussp.. This research was divided into 4 stages, namely, total mold calculation, identification of molds through morphological observations, isolation, screening, and molecular identification of aflatoxin-producing molds. Using internal transcribed spacer (ITS),Nor-1, andOrd1primers, 8 out of 66 mold isolates from salted fish samples were isolated and identified.The results showed that the dominant genera in dried salted anchovy and cotton fish areAspergillussp. (36.8% and 53.6%), followed by other genera (36.8% and 28.6%) andPenicilliumsp. (26.3% and 17.9%). The total fungal counts in the dried salted anchovies and cotton fish ranged from 2.50 × 102to 4.00 × 102cfu/g, and 5.00 × 100to 1.40 × 102cfu/g. The prevalence of dried salted anchovy samples was 13.16% (3 of 28) and in the dried salted cotton fish sample was 12.12% (5/38). In general, the characteristics of positive aflatoxigenic samples have a temperature of 26.3 to 38.0°C, relative humidity of 44% to 59%, salt content of 3.06% to 16.06%, aw 0.71 to 0.79, and pH 6.13 to 8.75. The presence of aflatoxigenicAspergillussp. in salted fish sold in the Bandung market poses a potential hazard to consumer health.

Abstract
Catching of wild freshwater prawns in Palawan is done by using different fishing gears, including baited traps. However, there are only limited studies related to the efficiency of these traps on catching freshwater prawns. In this study, the efficiency of four different traps (traditional plastic traps, bamboo traps, modified traps, and rattan traps) and three baits (low-valued fish, grilled coconut, and octopus) was tested in catching live Macrobrachium spp. from the rivers of two localities in the Barangay Bagongbayan, Roxas and Sitio Catama, Dumaran, Palawan at two sampling events with 12-hr intervals along the river bank. Each trap was deployed randomly 5-8 meters apart in the collection site late afternoon and retrieved the following day. The highest catch was obtained using plastic traps with low-value fish as bait. All samples from the different traps were collected alive. Modifications are underway to improve the design of these traps to improve catch efficiency. Regulating the collection of Macrobrachium from the wild by developing it into broodstocks will support the sustainable aquaculture industry using hatchery-produced seedstocks instead of sourcing it from the wild.

Abstract
Riau Province has the Koto Panjang reservoir which is generated from the damming of the Kampar River flow for hydroelectric power generation and other utilization activities. The increase in community activities in reservoir waters and on land causes water quality dynamics that can affect fish farming activities. The purpose of this study was to determine the dynamics of reservoir water quality. The survey was conducted in March – August 2021 at seven sampling points, where water samples at each sampling point were taken at a depth of 1 m as much as 1 liter using a van dorn water sampler and preserved and analyzed according to standard methods. Data from measurement and analysis were tabulated and analyzed descriptively including temperature, pH, turbidity, TSS, TDS, DO, nitrate, ammonia, total nitrogen, BOD5, COD, and total phosphate. The results obtained indicate that the values of temperature, turbidity, TDS, TSS, pH, DO, ammonia, nitrate, and phosphate are still below the quality standard, except in the range of BOD values of 4.30 – 5.75 mg/L and COD of 17.90. – 23.73 mg/L is an indication of organic matter originating from other activities on the reservoir land, such as plantations, agriculture, settlements, tourism, apart from floating net cage cultivation activities.

Abstract
The Lekok Coast is part of Pasuruan Regency which has various community activities. The condition of the waters is influenced by natural and anthropogenic factors which receive a lot of input loads from the mainland. These input load can come from human activities such as aquaculture, industry and domestic waste that enters through rivers and then empties into the coasts. These conditions can affect the fertility of eutrophic, mesotropic or oligotropic waters. This study aims to determine the conditions of the waters based on the abundance of phytoplankton and the physical and chemical parameters of the waters to see the fertility status of the waters. The descriptive method is the method used in this study and the determination of the sampling point uses the purposive sampling method, the research was conducted in April – May 2019. Based on the results of the abundance of phytoplankton in the coastal waters of Lekok, it is classified into waters that have oligotrophic fertility levels. The results of observations and measurements of physical and chemical parameters in the coastal waters of Lekok showed that several parameters that support the growth of phytoplankton are less than optimal, such as temperature, brightness and nitrogen elements.

Abstract
Kampar River, Siak River, and Rokan River have different watersheds, and the water from these rivers is not interconnected. The results of this study can be used as a basis for managing aquatic resources in the Kampar River, Siak River, and Rokan River, Riau Province, Indonesia. This research was conducted in April 2017 – March 2018. The collection and measurement of water quality for each river consisted of three stations which were carried out based on SNI through the survey method twice, namely in the dry season and rainy season. The observed water quality parameters include physical, chemical, and biological parameters. The results of the next analysis are calculated using the STORET method using a value system from the United State-Environmental Protection Agency (US-EPA) which is adjusted to the Class III Water Quality Standard based on PP. 22 of 2021. The results of the analysis of the rain index value in the highest dry season is a score of -44 on the Rokan River, classified as class D with a score of -31 heavily polluted. The STORET score in the Kampar River and Siak River obtained -24, each classified as Class C, is included in the moderately polluted category. Meanwhile, in the rainy season the pollution index with the same pattern is highest in the Rokan River -40, then Kampar River, and Siak River each -20. The water quality standard used in this study is class III because it still supports fish farming activities. Based on Government Regulation Number 22 of 2021 concerning water quality standards, class III is water whose designation can be used for freshwater fish aquaculture, animal husbandry, and gardens irrigation. The Storet method is carried out by collecting water quality data and measuring data from each water parameter compared to the value of class III water quality standards.

Abstract
Nothing is known about the population dynamics of Macrobrachium spp. or freshwater decapods in Palawan that hence received little attention to conservation studies that are imperative to establish sustainable management proposals. Thus, this paper provides information on the natural distribution and abundance of Macrobrachium spp. in Palawan to address threats to their survival. Preliminary findings through key informant’s interviews suggest the distribution and abundance of these species in Palawan’s river system. Generally, Macrobrachium spp. are present in all river systems in the province. However, the respondents observed that the population started to decline during the late 1990s attributed to the rampant use of organic pesticides/insecticides for agricultural purposes and intensive quarrying activities stretched along with the river systems in some of the municipalities in Palawan. Results also annotated that the local populations use these animals as food without official regulations, which may be additional pressure on freshwater prawns. The abundance of the Macrobrachium spp. is affected by human interventions and the destruction of their natural habitat and populations. Management measures should be considered from the economic conditions of freshwater prawns for effective management strategy and conservation efforts for future generations.

Abstracts
Global warming and climate changes were of the main environmental concern of marine scientist in the last three decade. As a biodiversity hotspot, marine coastal ecosystem faced an environmental threat because of increasing sea surface temperature (SST) and land base effluent, which in turn had an impact on the biodiversity of megabenthic faunal on coral reef community. The present paper studied the current condition of reef ecosystem as well as biodiversity of megabenthic community in Petong Island, a core zone of Batam Marine Management Area (BMMA), Riau Archipelago Province. Gradual changes of physical and chemical properties of seawater originated from coastal activities presumably has caused an effect on benthic faunal community structure. It revealed that benthic lifeform coral cover account for 30,53%, categorized into fairly good, whereas abiotic sand cover of 16,53%. The lifeform consists of Acropora (AC)1.73% and non-Acropora 28,80%. Death coral with algae (DCA) account for 40,40% and death corall (DC) 2,80%, Soft Corall (SC) 1,20%, fleshy seaweed (FS) 0,07%, other fauna (OT) 1,47%, and rubble (R) 7,00%. Apparently, only 4 of target species megabenthic fauna from eight, were eccounterred including; seaurchin (Diadema sp.), topshell (Drupella sp.), giant clam (Tridacna sp.), trochus (Trochus sp.), with density of each megabenthic fauna calculated 5929, 1857, 71 and 71 ind/ha, respectively. It appeared that sea urchin were the highest density and followed by topshell (Drupella sp). Sea urchin were noted as a bioindicator of reef ecosystem health. High density of sea urchin may indicate that reef in unhealthy state. The presence of Diadema Sitosum indicate that dead coral were present and it feed on algae growing in dead coral. High density of sea urchin may indicate that reef in unhealthy state

Abstract
A survey of marine bivalves for species diversity was conducted at five locations in the current study; Three stasiun at Dumai city beach those are Silensing, Bandar Bakau, Basilam Baru, Sri Tanjung, and Pulau Payung beach of Rupat Island Strait, Riau Povince. Indonesia. The goal of this study was to learn more about the marine bivalves that live in the Rupat Island strait. From July to August 2020, marine bivalves were collected during spring low tides from intertidal zones and shallow coastal waters. From the Strait of Rupat Island, 13 bivalves belonging to 11 genera, 11 families and 8 orders were discovered. During the research, bivalves from the families Pectinidae, Placunidae, Arcidae, Trapezidae, Veneridae Ostreidae, Corbiculidae, and Psammobiidae were recorded during the study. The number of bivalves in each family reveals that two species belongs to the Arcidae family and two to the Cyrenidae family. Corbiculidae, Placunidae, Trapezidae, and Psammobiidae each had one species reported. The abundance of each species found was extremely low, it is not feasible to be presented quantitatively. The most common species encountered in the strait were Anadara granosa, Polymesoda erosa, Polymesoda expansa, and Pharella acutidens. The anthropogenic activities of Dumai city and Rupat Island, such as the discharge of industrial wastes, residential sewage, overfishing, habitat loss, overharvesting and tourism, could cause variations in bivalves abundance in the Strait of Rupat Island.

Published: December 2021

AbstractSkipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) is an essential part of tuna, skipjack tuna, and mackerel tuna trades in Indonesia as the species is an economic commodity with export value. Tomini Bay is one of the areas in Indonesia with intensive skipjack tuna exploitation activities using purse seine fleets. Such a high fishing rate requires management efforts to maintain the species population’s sustainability. This study was conducted in April 2018–December 2019 at a fish landing site in Gorontalo City with a total sample of 8,833 skipjack tunas. The population dynamics, recruitment, and utilization rate were analyzed using FISAT II application and ELEFAN program. The results showed that the length at first capture (Lc) was 31.8 cmFL (in 2018) to 32.2 cmFL (in 2019) at around 1.3 year old. The fish recruitment occurred all year long, peaking in May at 16.12%. In addition, the utilization rate (E) of the species was 0.47, meaning that the species was already moderate to fully exploited. The suggested practical management efforts to maintain the population of the skipjack tunas in the area are to stop the fishing efforts from growing and control the size of the mesh for fishing.

Authors: Nguyen G H , Le X T 
Published: December 2021

Abstract
In this study, chitosan nanoparticles containing palmarosa essential oil (PEO-CNPs) were formed by ionotropic gelation, consisting of two parts: emulsion preparation followed by ionotropic gelation encapsulation with tripolyphosphate ions (TPP) as a crosslinker. The encapsulation method was optimized by varying three parameters, including chitosan concentration, initial oil loading in the emulsion and TPP concentration. The effects of these parameters on the encapsulation efficiency (EE) and loading capacity (LC) were analyzed. EE had an initial increase followed by a decrease in the range of three parameters. However, LC rose with varying initial oil content while it reduced with changing polymer and TPP concentration. The optimum experiment with the highest EE (10.0 g/L of chitosan, 5.0 g/L of TPP and 30.0 g/L PEO) was chosen to analyze the particle size using Dynamic Light Scanning method (DLS). With DLS measurement, the z-average diameter was 235.3 nm, and the particle size distribution was in the range of 100 – 500 nm.

Abstract
In the present study, we conduct the numerical simulation for solar greenhouse dryer performance by Ansys Fluent software. The numerical simulations compared the meshing strategies for the dryer and show the effects on both temperature distribution and relative humidity distribution of air inside the dryer. Unstructured meshes were used in the numerical simulation employing hexahedral meshing and tetrahedral meshing for mesh generation. The meshing strategies were evaluated through 2 size of cell i.e., 0.1 m and 0.05m. The results indicated that the size of cell have strong effect than the mesh type on the temperature profile and humidity of air inside the dryer. Thus, the results gave the engineers more options to select the optimum conditions for meshing and simulation the dryer.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to propose a model to simulate the behaviour of water flows in shell and tube heat exchanger. Particularly, the continuity equation, the general heat transfer equations and the energy equation in COMSOL Multiphysics software were implemented in the numerical modelling. Besides, the experiment was also conducted to validate the proposed COMSOL model. The water temperature at locations close to the inlet and outlet of the shell side was respectively predicted at 31.5°C and 34.6°C in the simulation, and it was respectively measured at 31.5°C and 35°C in the experiment. These findings showed that the simulation results had a good agreement with the experiment. Next, this model was extended to simulate the overall heat coefficient and the pressure drops of the water flows in such heat exchanger. The overall heat coefficient was at 736.62 W/m2K. The pressure drops at the inlet/outlet areas of the shell and tubes were at 849.93 Pa and 6255.50 Pa, respectively. Conclusive evidence showed that the proposed model is a reliable method for studying the heat transfer behaviour of the shell and heat exchanger.
