Abstract
In Indonesia, the Application-Based Taxis (ABT) operators argue that they are not required to undergo periodic testing, unlike in other countries. This research aims to address this issue by conducting a qualitative study using three approaches: regulatory review, comparison of policies from other countries, and in-depth interviews with ABT company officials and 100 drivers. The study found that 41% of drivers refused to follow the regulation, citing financial read more

Abstract
Expired glue is one of the wastes generated from the adhesive and wood processing industries. Non-optimal management of expired glue can cause financial loss and environmental danger. This research tries to utilize the expired urea-formaldehyde (UF) glue with the addition of wood vinegar for producing composite products, i.e., for plywood and recycled particleboard. The materials used in this research were urea-formaldehyde glue past ±6 months from its shelf read more

Abstract
Asian herbal medicines have been known for decades, and some have been used to treat atopic dermatitis (AD). This chronic and persistent inflammatory skin condition causes severe morbidity and negatively impacts the quality of life. In numerous trials, traditional Chinese medicines have demonstrated clinical efficacy for AD. However, there is no well-documented summary of the wide variety of Asian herbal medicines used in treating AD. We aimed to systematically read more

Abstract
The purpose of this study was toinvestigate the contribution of Caesalpinia sappan(sappan wood) bark extractives by analyzing color change of the barkafter extraction and the color of the extractswith several color measurement methods.Successive extraction was performed with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and hot water. Color change of the bark was measured using CIELab color systemandthe extracts were analyzed with Ultraviolet-VisibleSpectrophotometer, read more

Abstract
Indonesia has committed to implement the sustainable development goals (SDG) by 2030 including the ending trafficking of protected species and addressing the illegal wildlife demand and supply. As such, there is a need for long-term data on wild animal trade and its contribution to the wider economy. We initiated a long-term monitoring programme of live civet trade in wildlife markets (120 surveys, 2010–2023).
Civets are traded to be kept as exotic read more

Abstract
Given a mandate to preserve the Indonesia tropical forest through its education, research, and community service activities, the Faculty of Forestry Universitas Gadjah Mada (FoF UGM) has reached broad stakeholders to support sustainable forest management and climate mitigation (SDG 13 and 17). FoF UGM supports basic and applied research contributing to forestry industrialization (SDG 9), such as improved planting materials for and E sp. In collaboration with read more

Abstract
Falcataria moluccana is a widespread species that grows rapidly in indonesia and produces timber used for carpentry. nonetheless, this species is especially susceptible to gall rust disease. to find plants that can handle rust, a mix of breeding with progeny experiments and forest management methods, like arbuscular mycorrhiza (am), were used. the point of this study is to find out if adding am changes how F. moluccana seedlings grow and how they react to gall read more

Abstract
The development of bamboo as a raw material for construction materials has drawbacks, including low physical properties. Therefore, this work aimed to determine the physical and mechanical properties of laminated boards modified with citric acid, boric acid, and polystyrene. In addition, the study analysed the optimum immersion time and the phenomenon of the modifications provided. Two-step conditions were designed for the immersion of bamboo lamina. The first read more

Abstract
Fibrovascular bundle (FVB) of Salacca sumatrana fronds is a natural fiber derived from palm plants. The fiber typically had long dimensions and the potential to be used as raw material for oriented boards. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the properties of oriented boards made from alkaline- modified FVB of Salacca sumatrana frond. FVB was modified with an alkali pre- treatment, comprising 1% NaOH, 1% NaOH + 0.2% Na2SO3, and 1% NaOH + 0.4% Na2SO3 to read more
