Since its first appearance in China, in the end of 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has mutated into several variants. The genome analysis of the spike of SARS-CoV-2 is necessary to identify the mutations in each variant. In this study, we obtained the whole genome sequences of SARS-CoV-2 Wild Type and variants fro...

Background SARS-CoV-2 is a virus that initially appeared in Wuhan, China, at the end of 2019. Since then, the virus has spread until to almost all countries resulting in a global pandemic. Over time, this virus continues to mutate and produce several other variants. In Indonesia, there are multiple variants of SARS-CoV-2 identified, as well as vari...

Background Tuberculosis is one of the deadliest disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis . Its treatment still becomes a burden for many countries including Indonesia. Drug resistance is one of the problems in TB treatment. However, a development in the molecular field through Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can be used as a solution in detecting...

Mangrove plants have been utilized by humankind for so long. It is widely suggested that there are still many benefits to these mangroves that are not yet discovered. This article examines the current researches in the usage of mangroves as medicine. Many of these researches revolve around the potential use of mangrove as anticancer, antitumor, ant...

Ketersediaan air minum merupakan kebutuhan mutlak bagi masyarakat. Hal ini juga berlaku bagi masyarakat di Desa Marga Mulya, Kecamatan Mauk, Kabupaten Tangerang, Propinsi Banten. Menurut data yang diperoleh, lebih dari 90 persen masyarakat di desa ini tidak memiliki akses terhadap air bersih terlebih air minum. Untuk kebutuhan mandi, cuci dan kakus...

Humans are at a continuous battle against different types of diseases, so that extraordinary effort to accelerate drug discovery has become a necessity. Indonesian biodiversity is abundant natural resources that can be utilized as potential drug sources. Mangroves are among potential plant medicines that grow nearly at all Indonesian coastlines. Th...

Akses terhadap air bersih dan sarana sanitasi yang layak merupakan salah satu syarat mutlak terjaminnya kualitas hidup masyarakat. Namun hingga saat ini sebagian masyarakat kita belum mendapatkan akses terhadap air bersih dan sanitasi yang baik. Untuk itu diperlukan keterlibatan pihak Perguruan Tinggi dalam upaya penyediaan dan pemeliharaan fasilit...

Road map the community service of Swiss German University activities in 2016 until 2020 about manage of non-organic wasted. In addition, Keranggan village is used as the pilot project to implement the program of non-organic waste management which is located in district of Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia. Swiss German University provides non-organic wa...

Conventional drug discovery is believed to be much slower than the emerging of diseases. It could also cost pharmaceutical companies hundreds of million of dollars with no guarantee that the process would be a successful one.
