Abstract

The increasing demand in the textile industry ideally requires effective wastewater treatment systems to prevent environmental pollution. These pollutants are resistant to degradation and pose serious risks to aquatic ecosystems and human health. To address this issue, sustainable and low-cost treatment methods are urgently needed. Biosorption using agricultural waste has emerged as a promising alternative; however its performance is often limited by insufficient active binding sites. Therefore, surface modification using natural protein sources is proposed to enhance adsorption capacity and efficiency. This study aims to develop and evaluate longan peel modified with duck egg white (LP-DEW) as an eco-friendly biosorbent for indigo carmine removal. The effects of particle size and contact time were investigated, and adsorption kinetics were analyzed using pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models. The results showed that LP-DEW exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 128.27 mg g-1 at an optimal particle size of 63 μm and equilibrium time of 90 min. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model, indicating chemisorption as the dominant mechanism. In conclusion, LP-DEW demonstrates high adsorption efficiency and favorable kinetics, highlighting its potential as a sustainable biosorbent for dye-contaminated wastewater treatment.

Abstract

Tumbuhan Andrographis paniculata menghasilkan beragam metabolit sekunder yang memiliki berbagai aktivitas biologis termasuk antibakteri. Senyawa antibakteri pada tumbuhan ini juga dapat diekplorasi dari jamur endofitik yang berasosiasi dengan tumbuhan A. paniculata. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui aktivitas antibakteri jamur endofitik RS-1 dari ranting tumbuhan A. paniculata menggunakan media beras hitam. Tahapan penelitian terdiri dari isolasi, kultivasi, ekstraksi, uji antibakteri dan uji kandungan metabolit sekunder dari jamur endofitik pada ranting tumbuhan A. paniculata. Uji efektivitas aktivitas antibakteri terhadap ekstrak EtOAc jamur endofitik RS-1 menunjukkan bahwa ekstrak jamur RS-1 pada media beras hitam mampu menghambat pertumbuhan tiga bakteri uji pada konsentrasi 1%, 3% dan 5%. Ekstrak EtOAc jamur endofitik RS-1 dari tumbuhan A. paniculata menggunakan media beras hitam mempunyai potensi sebagai sumber senyawa antibakteri.
