The provision of qualified publication is the epitome of our works to participate in enlightening society intelligence and awareness as stated in The 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The edited book, Exploring Indonesian Microbial Genetic Re- sources for Industrial Application offers some important findings on the exploration and utilization on the microbial genetic resources in Indonesia. Through this book, some intensive exploration on micro- bial genetic resources in Indonesia, many new species and even new genus of important microbial taxa have continuously been discovered. This book serves to highlight the significant achievements, especially in the area of microbiology, carried out by the microbiologists in Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI). We surely hope this book could give new insights and infor- mation, especially on diversity of the microbial genetic resources in Indonesia and its potential utilization. As a final note, we would like to deliver our heartfelt gratitude to everyone taking part in the process of this book. LIPI Press vii viii | Exploring Indonesian Microbial … Foreword I am very delighted and I really appreciate this bright initiative of LIPI’s researchers to publish a book entitled Exploring Indonesian Microbial Genetic Resources for Industrial Application. This publication certainly helps LIPI to highlight the work being conducted and sets of achievement reached by LIPI’s microbiologists. I witness that there are number of significant achievements in the area of microbiology carried out at LIPI. The dedication of LIPI’s microbiologists marks a new era for LIPI. The number of international scientific cooperation on exploration and utilization of Indonesian microbial genetic resources has been increasing steadily. Through this cooperation, LIPI has successfully upgraded human resources and research capability. The most important achievement is that through the intensive exploration on microbial genetic resources in Indone- sia, many new species and even new genus of important microbial taxa have continuously been discovered. With this, LIPI has proven a significant contribution to the advancement of science in the field of microbiology at global level. The number of microorganism collection continuously increases, some have been studied for its potential utilization, and some are still awaiting for further studies. Upon this achievement, collection of LIPI is not limited to those of plant specimens at Herbarium Bogoriense, ix living plant species at Botanic Gardens, and the collection of animal specimens at Museum Zoologicum Bogoriense, but also include living microbial genetic resources. It is also important to note that through a hard work and high dedication of LIPI’s microbiologists, we could now demonstrate the future value of microbial genetic resources in supporting sustainable development of the country. I do believe that our microbial genetic resources could provide solution to various problems faced by Indonesia and even other countries. We could demonstrate and offer the usefulness of our collection at the grass root level to support pro poor, pro growth, pro job, and pro green initiatives. It is well-timed for LIPI to search strategic partners to con- vert research output to become outcome and provide impact for Indonesian sustainable economic development. At the same time, it is also opportunity for LIPI to build and establish instrument to conserve and sustain the use of microbial genetic resources. LIPI has storage facilities for the conservation of microbial genetic resources, which is called Indonesian Culture Collection (InaCC) which meets international standard as set out by the Budapest Treaty. With this facility, Indonesia now has a facility which can deposit microbial genetic resources, including patent materials and ready for broader collaboration. Jakarta, 12 June 2016 Deputy Chairman for Life Sciences, Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI) Prof. Dr. Ir. Enny Sudarmonowati x | Exploring Indonesian Microbial … Preface Indonesia is a maritime country sparkled by more than 17,000 islands. Each island is isolated one and another for hundred thousands years. Indonesia is also a volcanic archipelago that forms a ring of fire. Indo- nesia has diverse ecosystem types, ranging from mountains covered by snow in Papua to a deep sea in Wallace Weber imaginary line region. These facts are gifts for Indonesia’s biodiversity as Indonesia becomes a truly mega biodiversity country. In fact, Indonesia is the second largest mega biodiversity country in the world after Brazil. Nevertheless, biodiversity of microbes described by many scien- tists in Indonesia is limited compared to plant and animal biodiversity. The biodiversity of microbes in the country has yet to be explored extensively. Scientific work on Indonesian microbial resources has already been started in late 1800 by Dr. M. Treub at Bogor Garden. However, the information on Indonesian microbial genetic resources is still very limited. Treub himself was a botanist. He, for nearly 30 years between 1880 and 1909, collected and described many micro- organisms such as fungi, microalgae, and bacteria. The work of Treub, however, came to a halt as no one followed on his footsteps. Only a little more than 50 years later, the study on microbes in Indonesia was continued in 1960s by Indonesian scientists. Yet, the progress was slow due to limited human resources and research infrastructure. xi Only in the mid 1990s, the work on microbiology was growing. And just recently, during the last 15 years, exploration on Indonesia micro- bial resources has been accelerated by LIPI’s scientists.

However, the knowledge of culturable bacterial communities found in this extreme ecotope’s soil is yet insufficient. Therefore, our research has been aimed to fulfil this lack of knowledge and improve the understanding of functioning of edaphic bacterial communities of the Central Mojave Desert soil. We characterized aerobic heterotrophic soil bacterial communities of the central region of the Mojave Desert. A high total number of prokaryotic cells and a high proportion of culturable forms in the soil studied were observed. Prevalence of Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Firmicutes was discovered. The dominance of pigmented strains in culturable communities and high proportion of thermotolerant and pH-tolerant bacteria were detected. Resistance to a number of salts, including the ones found in Martian regolith, as well as antibiotic resistance, were also estimated.

Marine rare actinomycetes represent a rather untapped source of chemically diverse secondary metabolites and novel bioactive compounds. In this review, we aim to summarize the present knowledge on the isolation, diversity, distribution and natural product discovery of marine rare actinomycetes reported from mid-2013 to 2017. A total of 97 new species, representing 9 novel genera and belonging to 27 families of marine rare actinomycetes have been reported, with the highest numbers of novel isolates from the families Pseudonocardiaceae, Demequinaceae, Micromonosporaceae and Nocardioidaceae. Additionally, this study reviewed 167 new bioactive compounds produced by 58 different rare actinomycete species representing 24 genera. Most of the compounds produced by the marine rare actinomycetes present antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, anticancer or antimalarial activities. The highest numbers of natural products were derived from the genera Nocardiopsis, Micromonospora, Salinispora and Pseudonocardia. Members of the genus Micromonospora were revealed to be the richest source of chemically diverse and unique bioactive natural products.

SOD is not one, but three separate, non-homologous 12 enzymes that perform the same function. Thus, the evolutionary history of genes encoding for 13 different SOD enzymes is one of convergent evolution, which reflects environmental selection 14 brought about by an oxygenated atmosphere, changes in metal availability, and opportunistic 15 horizontal gene transfer (HGT). In this study we examine the phylogenetic history of the protein 16 sequence encoding for the nickel-binding metalloform of the SOD enzyme (SodN). A comparison 17 of organismal and SodN protein phylogenetic trees reveals several instances of HGT, including 18 multiple inter-domain transfers of the sodN gene from the bacterial domain to the archaeal domain.

  • FOOD PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT II OBJECTIVES at the End of This Lesson, Students Should Be Able to Demonstrate Appropriate Skills, A
    FOOD PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT II OBJECTIVES At the end of this lesson, students should be able to demonstrate appropriate skills, and show an understanding of the following: Meat Cooker Mutton and Lamb Beef and Veal Parks, Bacon, Ham and Gammon Game Poultry and Chicken INTRODUCTION In basic food preparation, meat is generally considered to be the flesh of any animal and includes beef, veal, lamb, and pork along with poultry, fish, and shellfish. Poultry and fish, however, often differ from the red meats in preparation and tests for doneness (rare, medium and well done). The word meat comes from the Old English word mete, which referred to food in general. The narrower sense that refers to meat, which does not include sea food, developed over the past few hundred years and has religious influences. Meat, especially beef, is prepared in many ways, as steaks in stews, fondue, or as dried meat. It may be ground then formed into patties (as hamburgers or croquettes), loaves, or sausages, or used in loose form (as in "sloppy Joe" or Bolognese sauce). Some meat is cured by smoking, pickling, preserving in salt or brine (see salted meat and curing). Other kinds of meat are marinated and barbecued, or simply boiled, roasted, or fried. Meat is generally eaten cooked, but there are many traditional recipes that call for raw beef, veal or fish. Meat is often spiced or seasoned, as in most sausages. Meat dishes are usually described by their source (animal and part of carcass) and method of preparation. Meat is a typical base for making sandwiches.
