Abstract

Cassava peels contained carbon elements about 59.31%, it became the base of using cassava peels as activated carbon. One of utilization of activated carbon was adsorption metal lead. Production of activated carbon was conducted in 3 steps were dehydration, carbonation and activation. Study had been conducted by comparing characteristic of activated carbon without activator and activated carbon with variation of KOH concentration as activator were 0.2 M; 0.4 M and 0.6 M so that could be known the optimal KOH concentration. Characteristic testing was conducted for water content, ash content, adsorption of iodium and adsorption of methylene blue also adsorption of lead metal. Measuring of adsorption metal lead was done by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy. Experiment result shows activated carbon with KOH 0.4 M has best characteristic by water content 3.79%, ash content 8.09%, adsorption of iodium 863 mg/g and adsorption of methylene blue 3116 mg/g also adsorption of metal lead 98%.

Abstract

Red ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale Roscoe var. Sunti) is one of the herbs that is widely used as traditional medicine. The present study was to determine the secondary metabolites contained in red ginger rhizome plants and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria. A total of 483.2 grams of red ginger powder was extracted by maceration method obtained from ethyl acetate extract 15.85 g. Antibacterial activity of red ginger extract against S. aureus and E. coli using microdilution method showed that ethyl acetate extract could inhibit S. aureus growth by MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration) 6.3% and MBC (Minimum Bactericidal Concentration) 25% and extract Ethyl acetate red ginger rhizome can Minimum MIC (E. Inhibition Concentration) E. coli with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 25% and MBC (Minimum Bactericidal Concentration) 50%. The results showed that the red ginger rhizome ethyl acetate extract was the most influential and had more potential to inhibit the growth of Gram positive bacteria compared to inhibition of Gram negative.
