🌿 Innovative Collaboration between FMIPA UNTAN and BKSDA West Kalimantan 🌿
Hello, Biology Students! ✨
On Tuesday–Wednesday, October 21–22, 2025, the Biology Department faculty team at FMIPA UNTAN participated in the final discussion on the bioprospecting potential of four high-potential plant species, namely Nepenthes clipeata, Rennelia elliptica, Rennelia borneensis, and Hanguana sitinubayaii.
The event, held at the BKSDA Kalbar office, was attended by the Deputy Dean III of FMIPA UNTAN, the Head of the Biology Department, and faculty members involved in the bioprospecting collaboration team.
Several topics discussed by the Biology lecturers included:
🧬 Pure Line Study of Nepenthes clipeata
🌿 Phytochemical Screening, Protein and Active Compound Study of Nepenthes clipeata
🧫 Technical Ethanol Extraction and In Vivo Wound Healing Test
This collaboration is a tangible manifestation of the synergy between the academic world and conservation institutions in optimizing the potential of West Kalimantan’s biodiversity in a sustainable manner 🌱
A concrete step towards developing the biological potential of West Kalimantan!
