Sustainable design of sanitation system based on material and value flow analysis for urban slum in Indonesia

Material flow analysis (MFA) and value flow analysis (VFA) were applied to the sanitation system in an urban slum in Indonesia. Based on the results of the MFA and VFA, garbage and excreta disposal costs were evaluated to be 0.7% and 1.1%, respectively, of per capita income. Such value flows seem reasonable in light of the recognized affordability to pay (ATP) standard. However, current excreta disposal methods create negative impacts on downstream populations. Because such disadvantages do not go back to disposers, but passed to downstream, the current value flow structure does not motivate individual toilet users to install treatment facility. Based on current material and value flow structures, a resource recycling sanitation system scenario was examined. Based on VFA, an affordable initial cost for such a system was calculated; this was found to be comparable in price to a cheaper composting toilet that is currently available in the market

Effect of Growth Phase on Survival of Bromegrass Suspension Cells Following Cryopreservation and Abiotic Stresses

• Background and Aims Cryopreservation is a practical method of preserving plant cell cultures and their genetic integrity. It has long been believed that cryopreservation of plant cell cultures is best performed with cells at the late lag or early exponential growth phase. At these stages the cells are small and non-vacuolated. This belief was based on studies using conventional slow prefreezing protocols and survival determined with fluorescein diacetate staining or 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride assays. This classical issue was revisited here to determine the optimum growth phase for cryopreserving a bromegrass (Bromus inermis) suspension culture using more recently developed protocols and regrowth assays for determination of survival
