Abstract

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles from the extract of senduduk leaf (Melastoma malabathricum) with modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been carried out. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the addition of PVA on the characteristics of silver nanoparticles formed using the extract of sensaat leaf (Melastoma malabathricum). Variations in the concentration of PVA used were 0%; 0.75%; 1.5%; and 3%. Synthesis was carried out in a ratio of 1:10:1 (Extract: AgNO3: PVA) for 2 hours. The characteristics of the synthesis of nanoparticles using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer resulted in a consecutive wavelength of 414 nm; 435 nm; 438 nm; and 420 nm. To determine the particle size using Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) analysis at 0% PVA and 3% PVA with sizes obtained 61.9 nm and 216.2 nm. The average particle size using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis showed the results in the form of crystals and using the Debye-Scherrer equation to obtain the average particle size of PVA 0% 22.97 nm and PVA 3% 10.15 nm. Antibacterial activity test on silver nanoparticles used disc diffusion method, which showed that silver nanoparticles had moderate to strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria.Keywords: Bioreductor, senduduk leaf extract, silver nanoparticles, and polyvinyl alcohol

Abstract

Tailings of post-tin mining land have the potential to be cultivation fields for eggplant, but the problem from post-tin-mining land is the low essential nutrient and high metal contents. The quality of land needs to be improved by providing ameliorant such as oil palm empty fruit bunch compost. This research aims to determine the best dosage of oil palm empty fruit bunch compost to production and metal uptake of eggplant in post-tin mining land. This research was conducted from January to May 2019 in post-tin mining land, Dwi Makmur Village, Bangka. This research used a randomized block design with six treatments and four replications. Treatments consisted of organic fertilizer (control) of 15 t/ha(K0), oil palm empty fruit bunch compost 20 t/ha(K1), 30 t/ha(K2), 40 t/ha(K3), 50 t/ha(K4), and 60 t/ha(K5). The results showed that the application of oil palm empty fruit bunch compost of 60 t/ha was the best dose to increase eggplant production in the tailing of post-tin mining land. Application of oil palm empty fruit bunch compost reduced metal absorption of eggplant fruit in tailing of post-tin mining land.
