Abstract

Women often experience various health problems with their reproductive organs. They also have to take several treatments during postpartum and infant care. In the community, these treatments generally use medicinal plants and become local knowledge. This study aimed to document the local knowledge of Tanjung Merpati Village community in using medicinal plants for postpartum and infant care. We interviewed a total of 96 respondents, who are the general public in Tanjung Merpati Village. The data obtained were analyzed in the form of use-value (UV), informant consensus factor (ICF), and fidelity level (FL). The analysis results showed 22 species of medicinal plants used for postpartum and infant care. Plants such as kunyit kuning (Curcuma longa), cokur (Kaemperia galanga), entomu (Curcuma xanthorriza), and ginger (Zingiber officinale) have the highest UV values with values respectively (1; 0.96; 0.84 and 0.8). Baby haircare shows the highest ICF value. Several plants have the highest FL value (100), namely manjakani (Quercus infectoria) and asam kanis (Garcinia xanthochymus) (postnatal maternal care), ayau (Litsea sp) (baby poultice), kumis kucing (Orthosiphon aristatus), and coconut (Cocos nucifera) (fever in infants), jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) (treatment of baby's umbilical wound), lidah buaya (Aloe vera) (baby haircare), mengkudu (Morinda citrifolia) (stomachache and bloating in infants), as well as pisang (Musa sp) and cangkok manis (Sauropus androgynus) (enhance mother breast milk). Conclusions from the results of the study indicate that the people of Tanjung Merpati Village have local knowledge regarding postpartum and infant care, and this knowledge is still well maintained in the community.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of bagasse-activated charcoal for reduced formaldehyde emissions and their effect on the physical, mechanical, and biological properties of particleboard. Activated charcoal was made by carbonizing bagasse at 300°C for 2.5 h, followed by carbon activation using a 0.1M HCl solution for 24 h. Particleboards were made of a mixture of bagasse and wood particles with a ratio of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100. The concentrations of activated charcoal used in manufacturing particleboards were 2, 4, and 6% based on the dry weight of the particles. Particleboards were made with a target density of 0.7 g/cm3 and hot-pressed at 140°C for 10 min with a pressure of 35 kg/cm2. The observed parameters were formaldehyde emission levels, physical properties, mechanical properties, and biological properties of particleboards. The results showed that the more activated charcoal added in the manufacture of particleboards decreased formaldehyde emissions of the panel. Based on the SNI 5008.2:2016, the overall formaldehyde emission value of particleboard in this study with activated charcoal is in the F* category. The addition of activated charcoal improved the physical, mechanical, and biological properties of particleboards in terms of increased density, decreased water content, water absorption, and thickness swelling, increased modulus of elasticity, modulus of rupture, internal bonding, and screw withdrawal, as well as increased resistance to termites. The particleboard with the addition of 6% activated charcoal showed better mechanical, physical, and biological properties. All physical and mechanical properties of particleboard met the JIS A 5908-2003 Type 8 standards, except for the modulus of elasticity. Keywords: Activated charcoal, bagasse, biological properties, formaldehyde emission, mechanical properties, particleboard, physical properties

Abstract

Coptotermes sp. is the most important genus of termites in buildings and plantations. In recent years, methods to combat termite infestation by using chemicals have caused serious hazards to humans and environment. The utilization of liquid smoke as the bio-termiticide to combat termite infestation is one of the appropriate and interesting technologies to develop. The aims of this research are: (1) to produce liquid smoke made from waste of empty fruit branch of oil palm by applying a condensation process, (2) to determine the optimum temperature of the production of liquid smoke, (3) to identify the component of liquid smoke, (4) to evaluate the bio-activity of liquid smoke as bio-termiticide on termites in the laboratorium. Liquid smoke was produced under various temperatures 350, 400, 450 C for 90 minutes. Phenol and acid analysis the components of liquid smoke were qualitatively analysed by using a gas chromatography mass spectrometer/GCMS. Evaluation of liquid smoke on subterranean termite was done according to Ohmura (1997) procedure under various concentration of 1%, 2%, 3%, dan 4%. Identification of the component of liquid smoke showed that mostly phenols and acetic acids were present in all temperature of pyrolisis. Content of phenols and acids were increasing with higher temperatures. The highest mortality of termite after 3 (three) weeks observation was recorded using liquid smoke produced at a temperature of 450 C, followed by 400C, 350C and the control, respectively. The highest weight loss of the paper disc was observed with the control with a weight loss of 100%, followed by 350C, 400C, dan 450C, respectively.
