Abstract

Abstract. Belajang Susu Plant (Scindapsus pictus Hassk.) is a species of the genus Scindapsus including the Araceae family which has been traditionally used by the Mambi people for medicine. Plants from the genus Scindapsus contain active compounds such as calcium oxalate, flavonoids sulfate and a mixture of flavones and flavonols sulfate which can be used as anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antioxidant, anticancer and anti-tumor. This study aims to determine the potential of methanol extract of Scindapsus pictus Hassk. as an anticancer. Extraction was carried out by maceration with methanol and then tested for cytotoxicity against MCF-7 cancer cells. The results showed that the methanol extract of Scindapsus pictus Hassk. was very active against MCF-7 breast cancer cells with an IC50 value of 3.9861 μg / mL. Keywords: Belajang susu,  Scindapsus pictus Hassk., MCF-7The first section in your paper

Abstract

Abstract. This study aims to determine the effect of binder concentration on the ability of porous ceramics as TiO2 support catalyst. The porous ceramic synthesis used was the gelcasting method using natural clay as matrix, cassava starch as binder and CMC as dispersant. The concentration of cassava starch binder used were 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%. The methods used in catalyst supporting are adsorption method and sol gel coating method. Analysis of TiO2 catalyst content in porous ceramics using XRF instrument. The results obtained showed that the concentration of cassava starch affects the ability of porous ceramics as TiO2 catalyst support. The largest percentage of TiO2 catalyst with adsorption method was achieved at a binder concentration of 8% with a catalyst percentage of 38.9% while with sol gel coating method was achieved at a binder concentration of 4% with a catalyst percentage of 20.11%. Keywords: Binder, Cassava Starch, Porous Ceramic, Gelcasting, Support Catalysts
