Abstract

The aim of this work is to determine the concentration of mercury in body lotion from several brands that are available in Banda Aceh. This research expected to provide information for the public and government related to the negative effects of harmful cosmetics that widely circulated. This information is useful into consideration of policy-making and monitoring the use of Hg metal. This study determined the type of body lotion cosmetics containing Hg metal by using Cold Vapor Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (CVAAS) method. There are 22 samples and 11 of them have been selected by purposive sampling. The standard Hg calibration curve produces a linear line with the equation y = 0.0874x + 0.0729, and the correlation coefficient (R2) value of 0.9726. LOD value is 0.004854 ppb, and LOQ is 0.01681 ppb. The positive results were obtained from samples code TB3= 0.046, TB6= 0.01, and TB13= 0.004 ppb respectively. These results indicated the mercury level was still lower than 1 mg/L the threshold by drug and food control centers (BPOM).

Abstract

Construction of optical pH sensor as a new platform optical urea biosensor based on polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) pectin-chitosan membrane and total phenolic (anthocyanin) of Tapak Dara flower (Catharanthus roseus) has been successfully carried out. The anthocyanin was extracted by a maceration method for 72 hours using methanol, and a total extract yield was 21.56% or 1.803 mg/L. Flavonoid and phenol tests showed positive results indicated by the formation of red and black colours. The anthocyanins showed maximum absorption at 578 nm for phosphate buffer and 575 nm for tris HCl buffer solution. The sensor fabrication was performed using a mixture of pectin and chitosan solutions with a ratio of 3:7. The anthocyanin was mixed into the solution with various concentrations. The sensor has an optimum sensitivity at the anthocyanin concentration of 0.05 mg/L (phosphate buffer) in the pH range of 7.0-9.5 and 0.025 mg/L (Tris HCl buffer) with a narrower pH range of 6.0-7.5. This sensor produced higher sensitivity, a wider linear range, and good linearity when it was exposed in 0.03M PBS. Reproducibility test with a relative standard deviation percentage (% RSD) was 9.20. The sensor showed a stable response after 5 minutes exposed to PBS solution, and it can be used to measure pH within the 20th day. The optimized optical pH sensor has been successfully developed as a urea optical biosensor by immobilizing urease on its surface. The biosensor showed a linear response in a series of 10-1-10-10 M urea concentrations and has good linearity.

Abstract

The influence of foreign ions on the response of Al3+ ISE-based polyurethane membranes from castor oil has been determined using SSM. The results showed that the presence of the foreign ions tested did not affect the sensitivity and response of Al3+ ISE. The influence of foreign ions Na+, K+, Li+, Pb2+, Ca2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Cr3+, and Fe3+ on the selectivity of ion-selective electrodes (Al3+ ISE) in the concentration range 1x10-9 – 1x10-4 M has been performed using separate methods. The results show that the presence of foreign ions does not affect the performance of Al3+ ISE with a Kij value < 1. The selectivity sequence of foreign ions is Fe3+ > Cr3+ > Pb2+ > Cu2+ > Ni2+ > Co2+ > Ca2+ > Li+ > Na+ > K+ respectively.
