PENGARUH LATIHAN AEROBIK DAN ANAEROBIK TERHADAP AMBANG ANAEROBIK

This research is aimed at demonstrating: 1) the effects of aerobic exercise towards the increase of anaerobic threshold, 2) the effects of anaerobic exercise towards the anaerobic threshold, 3) the difference in effectiveness of aerobic and anaerobic exercise towards anaerobic threshold. This is an experimental study using Pretest – Posttest Group Design. The populations involved in this study were 21 volleyball players of GARUDA from Kulonprogo regency, Yogyakarta. The samples were all players of the population so that it is categorized as population research. The samples were divided into two experimental groups which were aerobic and anaerobic groups using ordinal-pairing approach. The variables were: 1) independent variables: Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercises, 2) the dependant variable: anaerobic threshold. To determine anaerobic threshold, the researcher used running tests from Janssen (1989). The data were analyzed using T-test and mean variation. The results of normality tests using Kolmogorov Smirnov for aerobic exercise, Z count 0.513 P = 0.955, the status of spreading was normal while Z count for anaerobic exercise was 0.625 p = 0.829, the status of spreading was normal. Homogeneity tests using F-tests resulted in F = 0.003, P = 0.959, meaning that the variance of the samples was homogenous. The hypothesis test to experimental group I which was the group of aerobic exercise resulted in t count = -16.686, p = 0.000 which implied that there was significant influence of aerobic exercise towards anaerobic threshold and one to experimental group II which was the group of aerobic exercise resulted in t count = -16.754, p = 0.000 which implied that there was significant influence of aerobic exercise towards anaerobic threshold. The mean pre-test was 58.55, Post-test was 167.557, so that the mean difference was 9. For the anaerobic exercise, the mean of Pre-test was 158.80 and Post-test was 163,30, so that the mean difference was 4.50. Thus, the aerobic exercise had bigger mean differences than anaerobic exercise which implies that aerobic exercise was more effective than anaerobic in relation to the capacity of anaerobic threshold.

Genomic and proteomic biases inform metabolic engineering strategies for anaerobic fungi.

Anaerobic fungi (Neocallimastigomycota) are emerging non-model hosts for biotechnology due to their wealth of biomass-degrading enzymes, yet tools to engineer these fungi have not yet been established. Here, we show that the anaerobic gut fungi have the most GC depleted genomes among 443 sequenced organisms in the fungal kingdom, which has ramifications for heterologous expression of genes as well as for emerging CRISPR-based genome engineering approaches. Comparative genomic analyses suggest that anaerobic fungi may contain cellular machinery to aid in sexual reproduction, yet a complete mating pathway was not identified. Predicted proteomes of the anaerobic fungi also contain an unusually large fraction of proteins with homopolymeric amino acid runs consisting of five or more identical consecutive amino acids. In particular, threonine runs are especially enriched in anaerobic fungal carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes) and this, together with a high abundance of predicted N-glycosylation motifs, suggests that gut fungal CAZymes are heavily glycosylated, which may impact heterologous production of these biotechnologically useful enzymes. Finally, we present a codon optimization strategy to aid in the development of genetic engineering tools tailored to these early-branching anaerobic fungi

Bioaugmentation of Overloaded Anaerobic Digesters Restores Function and Archaeal Community

Adding beneficial microorganisms to anaerobic digesters for improved performance (i.e. bioaugmentation) has been shown to decrease recovery time after organic overload or toxicity upset. Compared to strictly anaerobic cultures, adding aerotolerant methanogenic cultures may be more practical since they exhibit higher methanogenic activity and can be easily dried and stored in ambient air for future shipping and use. In this study, anaerobic digesters were bioaugmented with both anaerobic and aerated, methanogenic propionate enrichment cultures after a transient organic overload. Digesters bioaugmented with anaerobic and moderately aerated cultures recovered 25 and 100 days before non-bioaugmented digesters, respectively. Increased methane production due to bioaugmentation continued a long time, with 50–120% increases 6 to 12 SRTs (60–120 days) after overload. In contrast to the anaerobic enrichment, the aerated enrichments were more effective as bioaugmentation cultures, resulting in faster recovery of upset digester methane and COD removal rates. Sixty days after overload, the bioaugmented digester archaeal community was not shifted, but was restored to one similar to the pre-overload community. In contrast, non-bioaugmented digester archaeal communities before and after overload were significantly different. Organisms most similar to Methanospirillum hungatei had higher relative abundance in well-operating, undisturbed and bioaugmented digesters, whereas organisms similar to Methanolinea tarda were more abundant in upset, non-bioaugmented digesters. Bioaugmentation is a beneficial approach to increase digester recovery rate after transient organic overload events. Moderately aerated, methanogenic propionate enrichment cultures were more beneficial augments than a strictly anaerobic enrichment

Degradation of BTEX by anaerobic bacteria: physiology and application

Pollution of the environment with aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene (so-called BTEX) is often observed. The cleanup of these toxic compounds has gained much attention in the last decades. In situ bioremediation of aromatic hydrocarbons contaminated soils and groundwater by naturally occurring microorganisms or microorganisms that are introduced is possible. Anaerobic bioremediation is an attractive technology as these compounds are often present in the anoxic zones of the environment. The bottleneck in the application of anaerobic techniques is the lack of knowledge about the anaerobic biodegradation of benzene and the bacteria involved in anaerobic benzene degradation. Here, we review the existing knowledge on the degradation of benzene and other aromatic hydrocarbons by anaerobic bacteria, in particular the physiology and application, including results on the (per)chlorate stimulated degradation of these compounds, which is an interesting new alternative option for bioremediatio

Method for treating wastewater using microorganisms and vascular aquatic plants

A method for treating wastewater compresses subjecting the wastewater to an anaerobic setting step for at least 6 hours and passing the liquid effluent from the anaerobic settling step through a filter cell in an upflow manner. There the effluent is subjected first to the action of anaerobic and facultative microorganisms, and then to the action of aerobic microorganisms and the roots of at least one vascular aquatic plant

Thermophilic and mesophilic temperature phase anaerobic codigestion (TPAcD) compared with single-stage co-digestion of sewage sludge and sugar beet pulp lixiviation

The performance of temperature phase anaerobic co-digestion (TPAcD) for sewage sludge and sugar beet pulp lixiviation (using the process of exchanging the digesting substrate between spatially separated thermophilic and mesophilic digesters) was tested and compared to both single-stage mesophilic and thermophilic anaerobic co-digestion. Two Hydraulic Retention Times (HRT) were studied in the thermophilic stage of anaerobic digestion in two temperature phases, maintaining the optimum time of the mesophilic stage at 10 days, obtained as such in single-stage anaerobic co-digestion. In this way, we obtained the advantages of both temperature regimes. Volatile solids removal efficiency from the TPAcD system depended on the sludge exchange rate, but fell within the 72.6e64.6% range. This was higher than the value of 46.8% obtained with single-stage thermophilic digestion and that of 40.5% obtained with mesophilic digestion. The specific methane yield was 424e468 ml CH4 per gram of volatile solids removed, similar to that of single-stage mesophilic anaerobic digestion. The increase in microbial activity inside the reactor was directly proportional to the organic loading rate (OLR) (or inversely proportional to the HRT) and inversely proportional to the size of the microbial population in single-stage anaerobic co-digestion systems

Physiological Profile of Male Competitive and Recreational Surfers

Surfing consists of both high- and low-intensity paddling of varying durations, using both the aerobic and anaerobic systems. Surf-specific physiological studies lack adequate group sample sizes, and V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak values are yet to determine the differences between competitive and recreational surfers. The purpose of this study was therefore to provide a comprehensive physiological profile of both recreational and competitive surfers. This multisite study involved 62 male surfers, recreational (n = 47) and competitive (n = 15). Anthropometric measurements were conducted followed by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry, anaerobic testing and finally aerobic testing. V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak was significantly greater in competitive surfers than in recreational surfers (M = 40.71 ± 3.28 vs. 31.25 ± 6.31 ml·kg·min, p \u3c 0.001). This was also paralleled for anaerobic power (M = 303.93 vs. 264.58 W) for competitive surfers. Arm span and lean total muscle mass was significantly (p ≤ 0.01) correlated with key performance variables (V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak and anaerobic power). No significant (p ≥ 0.05) correlations were revealed between season rank and each of the variables of interest (V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak and anaerobic power). Key performance variables (V[Combining Dot Above]O2peak and anaerobic power) are significantly higher in competitive surfers, indicating that this is both an adaptation and requirement in this cohort. This battery of physiological tests could be used as a screening tool to identify an athlete\u27s weaknesses or strengths. Coaches and clinicians could then select appropriate training regimes to address weaknesses

Dissolved methane recovery from anaerobic effluents using hollow fibre membrane contactors

Hollow fibre membrane contactor (HFMC) systems have been studied for the desorption of dissolved methane from both analogue and real anaerobic effluents to ascertain process boundary conditions for separation. When using analogue effluents to establish baseline conditions, up to 98.9% methane removal was demonstrated. Elevated organic concentrations have been previously shown to promote micropore wetting. Consequently, for anaerobic effluent from an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor, which was characterised by a high organic concentration, a nonporous HFMC was selected. Interestingly, mass transfer data from real effluent exceeded that produced with the analogue effluent and was ostensibly due to methane supersaturation of the anaerobic effluent which increased the concentration gradient yielding enhanced mass transfer. However, at high liquid velocities a palpable decline in removal efficiency was noted for the nonporous HFMC which was ascribed to the low permeability of the nonporous polymer provoking membrane controlled mass transfer. For anaerobic effluent from an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (MBR), a microporous HFMC was used as the permeate comprised only a low organic solute concentration. Mass transfer data compared similarly to that of an analogue which suggests that the low organic concentration in anaerobic MBR permeate does not promote pore wetting in microporous HFMC. Importantly, scale-up modelling of the mass transfer data evidenced that whilst dissolved methane is in dilute form, the revenue generated from the recovered methane is sufficient to offset operational and investment costs of a single stage recovery process, however, the economic return is diminished if discharge is to a closed conduit as this requires a multi-stage array to achieve the required dissolved methane consent of 0.14 mg l−1.Yorkshire Water; Severn Trent Water; Anglian Water; Northumbrian Water; EPSR

The Operating Diagram for a Two-Step Anaerobic Digestion Model

The Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1 (ADM1) is a complex model which is widely accepted as a common platform for anaerobic process modeling and simulation. However, it has a large number of parameters and states that hinder its analytical study. Here, we consider the two-step reduced model of anaerobic digestion (AM2) which is a four-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations. The AM2 model is able to adequately capture the main dynamical behavior of the full anaerobic digestion model ADM1 and has the advantage that a complete analysis for the existence and local stability of its steady states is available. We describe its operating diagram, which is the bifurcation diagram which gives the behavior of the system with respect to the operating parameters represented by the dilution rate and the input concentrations of the substrates. This diagram, is very useful to understand the model from both the mathematical and biological points of view
