Abstract

Cosmetics are products of several substances or ingredients with a predetermined time limit. Efforts to extend the time limit of cosmetic use are made by adding preservatives. One preservative that is often used is methylparaben. Methylparaben has been tested using spectrophotometry, voltammetry, and HPLC. In this study, electrode modification was carried out in the voltammetry test to obtain a low detection limit. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the working electrode composition of carbon paste, bentonite nanoparticles, titanium dioxide nanoparticles, and paraffin on the best response in the analysis of methylparaben by cyclic voltammetry, knowing the optimum measurement conditions of pH with the best electrode composition in the analysis of methylparaben by cyclic voltammetry. FTIR characterized bentonite nanoparticles to determine vibrations and functional groups, and XRD was performed to determine the phase and particle size. The electrode was made from a mixture of carbon, bentonite nanoparticles, titanium dioxide nanoparticles, and paraffin. The best electrode composition was added with titanium dioxide nanoparticles to obtain a higher peak current. XRD characterization of bentonite nanoparticles showed an average particle size of 43.8155 nm. The result of determining the best electrode composition is 3:2:3:2 with an anodic peak current of 9.6.10-4 A. The best methylparaben measurement at pH seven solution conditions. The latest research shows that carbon paste electrodes modified with bentonite and titanium dioxide nanoparticles can be used for methylparaben analysis.

Abstract

Phosphate is a nontoxic element but a limiting element for productivity. Several methods have been established to analyze the phosphate concentration in water. This study aims to analyze phosphate concentration in water using the voltammetry method using cyclic voltammetry. Cyclic voltammetry is an electroanalytical method that measures the current outcome of oxidation-reduction reactions in response to the potential. The current outcome is directly proportional to the phosphate concentration in the solution. The calibration curve was formed from the KH2PO4 standard solution using concentrations of 0.1 mg/L, 0.2 mg/L, 0.4 mg/L, 0.8 mg/L, and 1.6 mg/L. The voltammogram showed that the analyte does not have an anode peak current (Ipa), which means that the analyte solution did not have an oxidation reaction, so the cathode peak current (Ipc) value was used. Based on the calibration curve, the linear regression graph with a straight-line equation is y = -0,00000645632x - 0,000208737 with R2 of 0,99737. Meanwhile, this cyclic voltammetry method was validated by calculating the LOD and LOQ values; the results are 0.1034 mg/L and 0.3134 mg/L, respectively. Hence, based on the analysis of phosphate concentration in water samples, this method works satisfactorily and is suitable for routine analysis because of its advantages.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the inhibitory potential of quercetin and its derivatives on the activity of Hendra virus (HeV) 6BK6 protein with its comparator N-Acetyl-D-[1-13C] Glucosamine. This research was carried out using the molecular docking method in order to obtain information related to binding affinity values, inhibition constants, and amino acid residues in the ligand-receptor hydrogen bonds. It was found that the compound quercetin 3-O-xyloside had the lowest binding affinity among the other compounds, namely -6.92 kcal/mol with an inhibition constant of 8.44 µM. In addition, there are four types of amino acid residues in the ligand-receptor hydrogen bonds including ASP304 (1,90 Ã…), SER301 (2,47 Ã…), ARG191 (3,18 Ã…), and MET188 (4.34 Ã…). In this case it can be concluded that the compound quercetin 3-O-xyloside has been shown to have the potential to inhibit the activity of the HeV 6BK6 protein.
