: Rhizophora mucronata is one mangrove species that is quite dominant found in Belawan. R. mucronata litter that falls to the forest floor will decomposed with soil microbial decomposers. Fungi are species that play an important role in the decomposition process and can assist the process of plant growth. The purpose of this study were to determine the frequency of colonization and the number of species and diversity index fungi in leaf litter R. mucronata at different levels of salinity. The research using purposive sampling method by determining the 3-point observation stations based on differences in salinity. The research showed that the highest fungi population found in station 1 with salinity 0-10 ppt worth 4.04 × 102 cfu / ml. The highest frequency of fungi colonization of litter decomposition process found in Trichoderma sp. The highest number of fungi species was found in the level of salinity 0-10 ppt as many as 13 species of fungi. The index species of fungi in Belawan waters show the same range that is currently illustrating that sufficient productivity, ecosystem conditions fairly balanced, ecologically balanced pressure.

: The production of particleboard still uses formaldehyde-based adhesives, such as urea formaldehyde (UF) adhesives, although it has been known that the adhesive is harmful to human health in the long term. Therefore, an effort is needed to get adhesive that is relatively safe to use. One of them is by utilizing tea plant waste which can reduce formaldehyde emissions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of particleboard, to evaluate the ratio of waste tea leaves (Camellia sinensis L)and meranti wood ( Shorea sp ) particles, and to evaluate the effect of adding waste tea leaves for formaldehyde emissions produced by particleboard. The results showed that the addition of tea leaf particles can improve the physical and mechanical properties of the particleboard.

: Raru is the name for bark that produced by several genus of Dipterocarpaceae such as Cotylelobium, Shorea and Vatica. The raru bark known as important source for traditional medicine of diabetic and mixture of bataknese alkoholic drink called "tuak" for increasing the fermentation rate. The lack of natural regeneration and destructive illegal harvesting for wood and bark, decreased the population every year. Due to this condition, since 1998 this species classified on endangered (EN) based on IUCN Redlist. Previous research showed only one species was found in North Sumatra, but from local community information, there were three local species can be found in Central Tapanuli, those were raru songal, raru dahanon and raru pulut. The objective of our research were (1). To determine the morphological character of local raru species from Central Tapanuli and (2). To determine phylogeny clustering based on morphological characters. Morphological data was collected from direct observation and measurement of on vegetative part of raru trees (stem, canopy, and leaf). Morphological characters were examined using descriptive analysis, phenotypic variability using standard deviation, and cluster analyses. The result showed that there was a difference between three raru species according to 32 observed characters including leaf, stem, bark, crown type, wood and the rosin. Analysis and measurement both quantitative and qualitative characters clustered raru into two groups. In which, raru songal separated with other species.

: Oil palm plantations continue to increase in Indonesia. Oil palm which is no longer productive will be replanted and replace with new seeds. Oil palm replanted still has the potential to produce oil palm sap. Oil palm sap is perishable so it is necessary to handle palm oil sap before entering a further production process, one of which is natural preservative from jackfruit wood. This study used a completely factorial randomized design with 2 factors, namely the concentration of jackfruit wood added (K): (3%, 6%, 9%, 12%) and storage time (T): (0 days, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days). The result showed that the best oil palm sap was from the treatment the percentage increase of 12% jackfruit wood and storage for 3 days.

The prevalence of stunting in a toddler is still quite high. The dominant cause is related to the low acquisition of complementary foods (CF) during the second year, especially in the fulfillment of micronutrients. Therefore, the study of the use of potential food is needed to enrich the nutrient content, especially micronutrients in CF formulations, to overcome the problem of stunting in the first thousand days of children life. This paper discusses the use of rice flour (R), awak banana (Bn), red beans (B), herbal chicken livers (L) and feet (F) in CF formulation. Formulation of CF was carried out through experimental studies using a complete randomized design with three formulas, namely RBnBLF, RBnBF, and RBnBL. The nutrient content was carried out by sending samples to Laboratory in Jogjakarta. The results showed that the third formula CF has a protein content and fat almost the same i.e. respectively 14% and 11%, carbohydrate content 56.1-61.18% and energy 380.56-397.96%, vitamin A as much as 319.99-439.85μg, vitamin C 39.11-54,51mg, calcium 0.51-1.26%, phosphorus 0.37-0.59%, iron 19.69-24,07mg, and Zinc 5.46.0mg. It was concluded that the use of several potential foods can enrich the micronutrient content of CF

: One of the problems that needs to be considered in the captive elephants management is the adequacy of feed. This study aims to obtain information on feed plants species, the palatability value and productivity of elephant feed in Aek Nauli's Special Purpose Forest Region. The research method was carried out by observation, focal animal sampling as well as feed productivity by measurements of changes in growth weight, height and diameter trees. The results showed that at the grazing area elephant have been identified at least 41 species of elephant feed, mainly from the Paoceae, Moraceae, Myrtaceae and Euphorbiaceae Families. The part plant species that most consumed is all parts (grass), leaves, plant skin and fruit. The species that have the highest palatability value (frequency and duration of feed) are Ottochloa nodosa, Caryota gigas and Rhodamnia cinerea. The highest leaf productivity has Arthocarpus integler and Litsea sumatrana is the lowest. Plant characteristics that affect feed growth are diameter and total height with equation (dry weight) is Ybk = 0.079 + 0.103 Diameter + 0.052 Total Height with correlation of 65.5%.

Quorum-sensing is a specific communication type among microbial species, exposing several virulence factors to host or internal environment. The phenomenon is currently being studied as potential target for drug discovery and development. Natural product derived from plant source may be evaluated as potential quorum-sensing inhibitor (QSI). The study aimed to determine the optimum concentration of Andaliman methanolic (MeOH) and ethyl acetate extract (EtOAc) against prodigiosin synthesis by Serratia marcescens as one of phenotypes controlled by quorum sensing. Based on optical density (OD600), both extracts did not interfere with the growth of microorganism. The optimum concentration of MeOH extract in inhibiting the prodigiosin synthesis was at concentration of 0.05% (w/v) in the end of incubation period (30 h). Meanwhile, the EtOAc extract inhibit the prodigiosin synthesis at concentration of 0.4% in the end of incubation period. Our results showed that Andaliman possess natural products as QSI which needed further evaluation in the future.
