Abstract

The synthesis of anethole-lauryl methacrylate (LMA) copolymer had been carried out by cationic polymerization using BF3O(C2H5)2 as the initiator without the use of solvent at room temperature (28-30 °C) over atmospheric N2 conditions. Polymerization was conducted by varying LMA concentration i.e. 2%, 4%, and 6%, (w/w) with respect to the anethole weight. Structural determination of co-poly(anethole-LMA) was done using FTIR and 1H-NMR spectrophotometer. The relative molecular weight (Mv) of co-poly (anethole-LMA) was measured by an Ostwald Viscometer at room temperature. Morphological characterization and surface area analysis of co-poly(anethole-LMA) was performed using SEM and SAA, respectively. The successful synthesis of co-poly(anethole-LMA) was proven by the disappearance of vinyl group absorption at 1696, 1638, 965, and 938 cm-1 of the FTIR spectra, as well as the loss of vinyl group proton signals at 6.4-5.5 ppm in the 1H-NMR spectra. Increasing the weight of the LMA affected the characteristics of co-poly(anethole-LMA). The relative molecular weight of co-poly(anethole-LMA) was found to rise by increasing the weight of LMA. The Mv of co-poly(anethole-LMA) 2%, 4%, and 6% were 32378.62, 50611.05, and 65133.79 g/mol, respectively. The morphology of co-poly(anethole-LMA) showed that the surface distance between particles was getting tighter and the highest surface area in co-poly(Anethole-LMA) 6% was 233.80 m2/g.

Abstract

ABSTRACT. Diabetic chronic wound care remains a global challenge due to higher rates of infection leading to amputations and death. The development of wound dressing materials with good biocompatibility, adequate mechanical strength, high absorption, and anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties are criteria for ideal wound dressings in clinical applications. This study aimed to prepare hydrogel plasters based on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) from cassava stems (Manihot esculenta C.) with the addition of an active substance from young papaya seeds (Carica papaya L.) for diabetic wound healing. The methods used included CMC synthesis, extraction of young papaya seeds, preparation of nanoparticles, hydrogel optimization using Response Surface Methodology (RSM), in silico study, and in vivo tests. All products for each stage were characterized by FTIR and XRD. Hydrogels were characterized by testing pH, organoleptic, swelling ratio, gel fraction, biodegradability, FTIR, and SEM. The results of RSM optimization obtained hydrogel with the formula Na-CMC 3%, citric acid 2%, and stirring temperature 70. Based on the in-silico test results, the apigenin compound has the lowest binding energy, namely -9.4 kcal/mol, so it has the potential to heal diabetic wounds by triggering angiogenesis through the VEGFR2 signal. In vivo test results showed that the hydrogel with the addition of young papaya seed extract had the fastest wound healing rate compared to other treatments, marked by 100% wound closure on the 10th day. Keywords: carboxymethyl cellulose, cassava stem, diabetes wound, hydrogel, young papaya seeds.

Abstract

In the pursuit of environmentally responsible chemical processes, we conducted a thorough assessment of the green metrics associated with the Cannizzaro reaction using p-anisaldehyde and benzaldehyde under solvent-free conditions. This research elaborates the application of two different methods i.e., reflux and ultrasonication, applying potassium hydroxide (KOH) as the reagent. The progress of the Cannizzaro reaction was methodically followed via thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and the resulting products were characterized using various techniques, including melting point analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). To measure the environmental impact and sustainability of these reactions, a multifaceted approach was used. Green metrics were evaluated by the state-of-the-art Environmental Assessment Tool for Organic Syntheses (EATOS) software, combined with the Andraos algorithm. Moreover, energy consumption calculations were evaluated. Reasonable analysis of the green metrics results was undertaken in the framework of prevailing literature, permitting to measure the level of eco-friendliness attained. Experimental findings revealed optimal conditions for the Cannizzaro reaction concerning p-anisaldehyde at a temperature of 50 °C for 90 minutes, resulting in remarkable of p-anisyl alcohol and p-anisic acid in 95.16% and 95.04% yields, respectively. Likewise, the reaction involving benzaldehyde reached its peak performance at 50 °C for 2 hours, giving benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid in 96.17% and 97.22% yields, respectively. Overall, the green metrics assessment and energy consumption calculations reliably confirmed that the solvent-free Cannizzaro reaction, when performed via ultrasonication, offers a reasonably greener and more energy-efficient method than the traditional ones. This research highlights the importance of sustainable chemical synthesis practices and their potential to reduce the environmental footprint of chemical processes.

Abstract

COVID-19 has profoundly impacted global health due to its severe respiratory effects. Similarly, respiratory issues are also triggered by pollutants such as O3, SO2, NO2, and CO. In response to these challenges, this study developed a portable air purifier called APMIKAV, incorporating sodium lauryl sulfate, activated carbon, and UV-C light as filter components. APMIKAV fabrication aimed to build a portable air purifier and study its effectiveness in filtering air containing viruses and pollutants into clean air. The APMIKAV utilized a three-stage filtration process that included a surfactant filter for pollutant removal and virus lysis, an activated carbon filter for pollutant adsorption, and a UV-C filter to deactivate viral DNA and RNA. Methods included designing, assembling, and testing. Antiviral testing was carried out with GeNose C19 on patients who tested positive for COVID-19, while air parameters were analyzed using an NDIR analyzer for CO and an air sampling impinger for O3, SO2, and NO2. Test with GeNose C19 showed negative results. Pollutant concentrations post-filtration average efficiency were 98.17%, 68.84%, 49.29%, and 66.34%, for NO2, O3, SO2, and CO, respectively. Overall, the multi-stage filtration process provided a robust solution for enhancing air quality in environments susceptible to both pollution and viral transmission, which confirmed APMIKAV's effectiveness in providing cleaner and safer air.

Abstract

A bioplastic formulated from chitosan and rambutan seed starch (Nephelium lappaceum L.), with sorbitol added as a plasticizer, presents a promising innovation to reduce the reliance on conventional plastics, which contribute to an annual waste accumulation of 381 million tons. This study aims to produce bioplastic from chitosan and rambutan seed starch, to analyze its physical and mechanical properties, and to determine the optimal composition. The bioplastic was fabricated using the solution casting method, with heating at 85-95◦C and drying in an oven at 60◦C for approximately 24 hours. The resulting bioplastic exhibited favorable tensile strength and elongation, as well as rapid biodegradability in soil. FTIR analysis revealed functional groups including O-H, C-H, N-H, C-O, and C-C, indicating the presence of corresponding components. The best composition was achieved with a starch-to-chitosan ratio of 40:60% and 20% sorbitol, resulting in a thickness of 0.21 mm, density of 0.80 g/cm3, water absorptionof 41.17%, tensile strength of 52.53 N/mm2, elongation of 22.64%, and biodegradability of 36.67%. TGA analysis showed three degradation stages i.e. water dehydration, starch degradation, and chitosan degradation.

Abstract

Enhancing Essential Oils Yield through Initial Maceration using Ultrasonication Method at Rumah Atsiri Indonesia. Metode ekstraksi minyak atsiri yang paling umum digunakan adalah destilasi uap. Pada umumnya, metode destilasi uap banyak digunakan oleh industri kecil termasuk di Rumah Atsiri Indonesia (RAI), karena memiliki beberapa keuntungan, diantaranya pengoperasian yang mudah serta peralatan yang sederhana. Akan tetapi, metode ini juga memiliki beberapa kelemahan, seperti membutuhkan waktu yang cukup lama dan hasil produksi yang kurang optimal. Untuk mengatasi kelemahan tersebut, solusi yang dapat dilakukan adalah melakukan proses destilasi minyak atsiri yang didahului maserasi dengan bantuan ultrasonik. Bekerja sama dengan RAI, Tim Riset Group Natural Products and Synthetic Organic Chemistry Prodi Kimia FMIPA UNS telah melaksanakan Program Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM). PkM bertujuan memberikan penyuluhan sekaligus praktik mengenai cara destilasi minyak atsiri dengan memulai proses maserasi dan menerapkan teknik ultrasonikasi di RAI. Pendekatan ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan efisiensi dan hasil proses destilasi dengan menggunakan gelombang ultrasonik untuk membantu memecah bahan tanaman sebelum destilasi. Hal ini memudahkan untuk mengekstrak lebih banyak minyak dan meningkatkan kualitas minyak atsiri secara keseluruhan. Kegiatan dimulai dengan diskusi tentang teori dan aplikasi maserasi awal dengan metode ultrasonikasi. Sesi selanjutnya adalah praktik maserasi awal dengan metode ultrasonikasi sebelum dilakukan destilasi. Luaran dari pelatihan ini adalah adanya peningkatan performa metode destilasi minyak atsiri. Hasil perlakuan ekstraksi awal dengan teknik ultrasonikasi bisa meningkatkan rendemen minyak sereh wangi dari 0,86% menjadi 1,86% atau meningkat 2,2 kali lebih banyak dibandingkan tanpa maserasi awal.
