Abstract

Moringa seed oil is rich in oleic acid which has benefits for treating skin health. The use of Moringa seed oil as a basic ingredient for making transparent solid soap increases the advantages of soap because it has moisturizing and skin softening properties as well as antimicrobial. The manufacture of transparent solid soap based on Moringa seed oil aims to determine the mass of Moringa seed oil which produces solid soap with the highest foam and pH stability values, as well as the level of soap irritation. The study was conducted using a completely randomized design (CRD) with the independent variable being the mass of Moringa seed oil consisting of four levels of 27.5 grams (A1), 30 grams (A2), 32.5 grams (A3), and 35 grams (A4), while the dependent variables include foam stability and pH stability which were determined after 3 weeks of testing. The best formula was further tested with a solid soap irritation level test. The best formula for transparent solid soap was found in using 30 grams of Moringa seed oil (A2) with foam stability of 93.56%, pH stability of 9-9.6, and low irritation level of only 20% after five days of use.

Abstract

The increasing environmental pollution is one of the consequences of human activities that continue to expand. The environment has limitations in coping with pollutants generated by humans, such as waste from the laundry industry. This research aims to evaluate the combined effect of zeolite produced from corn cobs and the use of microorganisms capable of degrading anionic surfactants, with the goal of reducing the concentration of anionic surfactants in laundry wastewater. The methods used include adsorption using corn cobs as adsorbents and biodegradation using surfactant-degrading bacteria. Morphological observations using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) indicate that the produced zeolite has a crystal structure that stacks up like clumps of cubes. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis shows that zeolite synthesized with a silica extraction ratio from corn cobs and sodium aluminate of 20:20 mL has been successfully conducted. The biodegradation process of anionic surfactants in laundry wastewater using a combination of synthesized zeolite and Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria employing the Methylene Blue Alkyl Substance (MBAS) method has shown a decrease in concentration to 1.66 mg/L and degradation of 33.55%, especially in sample 3 with variations of 7.5 grams of corn cob zeolite and 15% microorganisms, during a 5-day experiment.

Abstract

Steamed sponge cake is a popular traditional snack widely enjoyed by the public. Generally, steamed sponge cake is made from wheat flour, which contains high carbohydrate levels. In this food product, the high carbohydrate content leads to rapid carbohydrate digestion, causing an increase in blood sugar levels, which is not beneficial for health. Therefore, this research formulated durian seed flour and cornstarch in a 50:50 ratio, which was the best formulation from previous organoleptic tests. Durian seeds were processed into durian seed flour, which has a highly beneficial nutritional content for health. The objectives of this study were to determine the carbohydrate, protein, and fat content and to utilize the research results as a learning medium in the form of a poster. In this study, three treatment repetitions were conducted for each test under the same conditions. Carbohydrate content was determined using the UV-VIS spectrophotometry method at a wavelength of 460 nm, protein content was determined using the micro-Kjeldahl method, and fat content was determined using the Soxhlet extraction method. The results obtained in this study showed that the proximate nutritional content of the steamed sponge cake was 44.0102% carbohydrate, 28% protein, and 23.01% fat. With a sufficiently high fiber content, the resulting glycemic index can be categorized as low, thus it can be used to meet the needs of individuals with DMT-2.

Abstract

The local Palu shallot (Allium cepa L. var. aggregatum) plant is one of the leading products in the Central Sulawesi region. Shallots can experience a decrease in quality if they are contaminated with heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd) in amounts that exceed the threshold. This study aims to determine the effect of planting age on cadmium levels in local Palu shallots cultivated in Oloboju Village and Solove Village, Biromaru District, Sigi Regency. The research variables used were the planting age which consisted of 4 levels (age 40, 50, 60, and 70 days), and the planting location which consisted of 2 levels (Solove Village and Oloboju Village). Cd levels were analyzed using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Cadmium levels in shallot roots at two planting locations decreased with increasing planting age, from 101.34 - 107.18 mg/kg at 40 days of age to 1.68-3.78 mg/kg at 70 days of age. Shallot bulbs at two locations had lower cadmium levels than roots, namely 0.01-0.04 mg/kg. The results of the study found that planting time had a significant effect on cadmium levels in the roots of shallots, but planting age and planting location had no significant effect on cadmium levels in local Palu shallot bulbs with levels that met the SNI (Indonesian national standard) quality requirements

Abstract

Coconut pulp and soy milk pulp flour can be combined to reduce the use of wheat flour in the manufacture of cereals. The high fiber and protein content of coconut and soy milk pulp will improve the quality of cereals. The aim of this study was to obtain the mass ratio of coconut and soy milk pulp flour which produces cereals with high nutritional value. The ratio of coconut and soy milk pulp flour used was 0:100; 25:75; 50:50; 75:25; and 100:0 (w/w). Cereal quality was determined based on the value of carbohydrate, protein, fat, fiber, water, and ash content. The results showed that the protein, fat, water, and ash content met the SNI standard, while the fiber content was still higher than the maximum SNI limit. Statistically, the treatment of the ratio of coconut and soy milk pulp flour had a significant effect on all cereal quality parameters (sig. 0.00 < α (0.05)). The high cereal protein content was found in all levels, namely in the range of 14.29-21.14%, while the fat content was in the range of 17.8-34.41%. The use of a 0:100 ratio produces carbohydrate content that meets SNI, which is more than 60%. The use of a combination of coconut pulp and soy milk pulp for the manufacture of cereals that needs to be developed is 25:75 (w/w), however still needs further modifications to reduce fiber content and increase the carbohydrate content.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify the optimal concentration of carrageenan as a coating matrix for extracts of local Palu red onion bulbs (Allium cepa var. aggregatum L.) using the ion gelation method to characterise their properties, stability and antioxidant activity. The technique of converting liquid samples into small particles is known as microencapsulation. Carrageenan was formulated at varying concentrations (0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%) with the addition of 0.1% Na-TPP. Testing of antioxidant activity at a concentration of 0.3% yielded the highest antioxidant activity of 87.59%. The ANOVA test results showed that the matrix concentration had a significant effect (<0.05) on antioxidant activity. A total phenolic content of 49.61 mg GAE/g was observed in the 0.3% carrageenan sample. Carrageenan was stable at temperatures of 25°C and 40°C. FTIR characterisation of the encapsulation process indicated the presence of spectra showing interactions between the coating matrix and the extract, revealing changes in functional groups. PSA analysis indicated a particle size of 2100 µm.
