Abstract

Adipic acid production through catalytic conversion of cyclohexanol-cyclohexanone using polyoxometalate H5[a-BW12O40] and H4[a-SiW12O40] as catalysts was carried out systematically. Polyoxometalates H5[a-BW12O40] and H4[a-SiW12O40] were synthesized using an inorganic synthesis method and were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Adipic acid was formed from conversion of cyclohexanol-cyclohexanone and was characterized by using melting point measurement, identification of functional group using FTIR spectrophotometer, analysis of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and 1H and 13C NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectrophotometer. This research investigated the influence of reaction time and temperature on the conversion. The results showed that adipic acid was formed successfully with a yield of 68% by using H5[a-BW12O40] as the catalyst with a melting point of 150-152 °C after optimization. In contrast, using H4[a-SiW12O40] as the catalyst, the formation was only 3.7%. Investigation of time and temperature showed 9 h as the optimum reaction time and 90 °C as the optimum temperature for conversion of up to 68%. Identification using FTIR, 1H, and 13C NMR showed that the adipic acid from conversion of cyclohexanol-cyclohexanone was in agreement with the standard adipic acid data in the literatures. GC-MS analysis indicated that several by-products were formed in conversion of cyclohexanol-cyclohexanone using H5[a-BW12O40] and H4[a-SiW12O40] as the catalysts.

Abstract

Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), the most common form of dementia continues to be the deadliest neuro degenerative disease in recent years. Despite significant efforts to mitigate the progression of the disease, there is no known cure and development towards a more effective treatment is still lacking. AD is marked by exceptionally low amount of acetylcholine in the brain, formation of tau protein, and amyloid beta plaque. Current drugs of choice for treating AD, namely donepezil and memantine, are acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors which focused on delaying the onset of cognitive decline by maintaining acetylcholine concentration. Gambier water extract (GWE) contains high level of polyphenols which act as an antioxidant, exhibit strong correlation with AChE inhibitor. The aim of this research is to formulate and encapsulate GWE inside a microparticle system composed of chitosan and different crosslinkers, STPP (IMGS) and CaCl2 (IMGC), which were then characterized as AChE inhibitor using Ellman’s method. Variations of the formula were designed following Box-Behnken experimental design with chitosan and crosslinker concentration, crosslinker type, and stirring speed as variables. Initial activity of GWE, IMGS and IMGC as antioxidant were confirmed with DPPH method, obtaining a strong activity of 88.01, 82.11, and 84.99% DPPH inhibition at 100 ppm respectively. Promisingly, at concentration of 100 ppm GWE demonstrated AChE inhibition of 30.36%. However, this activity reduced after encapsulation into IMGS and IMGC, with 14.63% and 18.65% AChE inhibition, which can be linked to the relatively sustained diffusion of GWE from the polymer matrix. IMGS and IMGC diffusion profile showed release of 23.24% and 21.89% after 6 hours, with significant increase in diffusion after 24 hours with 74.92% and 71.19% respectively. Despite showing sustained release behaviour, both IMGS and IMGC ex-vivo diffusion significantly improved when compared to GWE which only diffused 51.84% after 24 hours. This result indicates encapsulation of GWE into a polymeric carrier could increase gambier diffusion through the nasal mucous membrane, significantly improving the potential to penetrate into the brain systemic circulation. Combined with desirable intranasal delivery characteristics, this research was able to demonstrate the promising potential of gambier water extract polymeric system as AChE inhibitors for AD therapy.

Abstract

Erythromycin, a macrolide antibiotic is classified into Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS) class II which has low solubility in water. The low solubility corresponds to the bioavailability in the blood. One strategy to increase the solubility of Erythromycin is the formulation of erythromycin in nanoemulsion. This research aims to form nanoemulsion using the PIT (Phase Transition Temperature) method for obtaining the optimum formula of erythromycin nanoemulsion using virgin coconut oil (VCO) can be found with varying concentrations of Tween 80 surfactant and PEG 400 cosurfactant. The selection of the optimum formula was assisted by Design Expert software with the Factorial design method 22. The basis for determining the optimum formula is based on the results of organoleptic characterization tests, adsorption efficiency (%EE), percent transmittance, viscosity test, pH test, and stability test. The optimum formula was nanoemulsion which had a concentration of Tween 80 25% and PEG 400 25% as a desirability value of <1. The results of the optimum formula showed that the particle size was 170.6±12.8594 nm, polydispersity index (PDI) 0.403±0.04406, and zeta potential -8.8667±0.25697 mV and had an appropriate stability without phase separation during stability test.

Abstract

Application of natural compounds in the field of nanoparticle synthesis have been explored due to their robust application and safety. Additionally, these compounds exhibit activities which can be utilised for their medicinal purposes. One of the most useful compounds is catechin, a polyphenolic compound present in high concentration in Uncaria gambir. Herein, we developed inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) based on green synthesis with gambir extract (GE) to produce iron oxide (GE-IONP), gold (GE-AuNP) and silver nanoparticles (GE-AgNP). These nanoparticles were then subjected to observation towards their photothermal activity for the treatment of thrombosis and antibacterial activity. Based on our evaluation, the NPs we obtained were able to exude photothermal effect, indicated by the significant increase of temperature of the solution of around 5-15 ◦C. Evaluation of thrombolytic potential towards thrombus with an in vitro model showed reduction of thrombus mass of around 40-50%, significantly improves the thrombolytic activity compared to GE alone. Antibacterial activity of laser induced GE-AgNP, GE-AuNP and GE-IONP on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated similar strength in inhibiting bacterial growth with broad spectrum antibiotics. Samples containing the NPs that were irradiated with laser were more efficient in preventing bacterial growth when compared to the NPs samples that were not subjected to laser, proving the synergistic mechanism of NPs and laser towards antibacterial effect. Based on the results we obtained, gambir based inorganic particles showed promising results as thrombolytic and antibacterial agent.

Abstract

A NiFe layered double hydroxide (LDH) composite with Uncaria gambir (UG) leaf extract was successfully synthesized. The composite (NiFe-UG LDH) and the base material (NiFe LDH) were identified using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) Surface Area techniques. The XRD and FTIR results revealed the incorporation of gambier leaf extract into the NiFe LDH structure, as indicated by the combined diffraction patterns and spectral features. The BET analysis indicated a decrease in the surface area of NiFe-UG LDH compared to that of NiFe LDH, suggesting that active compounds from the gambier leaf extract effectively coated the LDH surface and blocked its pores. During malachite green (MG) adsorption, NiFe-UG demonstrated faster adsorption kinetics and a higher adsorption efficiency, reaching 96.420% compared to 92.085% for NiFe LDH. While both materials followed pseudo-first-order kinetics, their isotherm behaviors differed: NiFe-UG adhered to the Langmuir model, indicating monolayer adsorption, whereas NiFe LDH followed the Freundlich model, signifying multilayer adsorption. Further analysis suggested that adsorption in NiFe LDH was primarily governed by physisorption, while in NiFe-UG, a combined physisorption-chemisorption mechanism occurred. These results underscore the enhanced adsorption capacity of the composite material, attributed to the introduction of additional functional groups from the gambier leaf extract.

Abstract

The adsorption capability of Ni/Al LDH modified with gambier leaf extract was evaluated for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB), Malachite Green (MG), and Methylene Blue (MB) dyes from aqueous solutions. UV-Vis spectroscopy analysis revealed that Ni/Al-Gambier Leaf Extract exhibited a higher efficiency in cationic dye removal compared to unmodified Ni/Al LDH. The removal percentages of RhB, MG, and MB using unmodified Ni/Al LDH were 6.00%, 40.05%, and 14.73%, respectively. However, after modification with Gambier Leaf Extract, these values significantly improved to 25.62%, 39.48%, and 31.06%, respectively. This enhancement was attributed to the polyphenolic functional groups present in the gambier leaf extract, which strengthened electrostatic interactions and promoted dye adsorption. These findings indicate that incorporating gambier leaf extract into Ni/Al LDH enhances its adsorption performance, making it a promising material for improving dye removal in wastewater treatment.

Abstract

The co-grinding method has been used to produce solid dispersions that increase the solubility of drug substances by utilizing hydrophilic polymers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of chitosan and variations of sodium alginate as polymers on the dissolution rate of cefixime solid dispersion using the co-grinding technique. The cefixime solid dispersion formulation was made in three variations of sodium alginate formulas, namely 200 mg, 250 mg, and 300 mg. Sample characterization was carried out using XRD, FTIR, SEM, solubility testing, dissolution rate, and flow properties. The results showed that Formula 2 (F2) cefixime solid dispersion was the best formula because the degree of crystallinity decreased to 21.71%, and FTIR analysis showed the functional group interaction. Evaluation of cefixime solid dispersion showed changes in particle morphology. In addition, there was an increase in the transmittance percentage in SIF of 98.587 ± 0.019 and an increase in the dissolution rate of cefixime of 83.61%, an increase in the flow rate of 6.3 ± 0.14 grams/second, an angle of repose of 26.4 ± 0.4◦, a compressibility index of 16.3 ± 0.29%, and a Hausner ratio of 1.19 ± 0.35.

Abstract

Stroke and myocardial infarction contributed significantly as the leading causes of global mortality rate, both commonly caused by thrombosis. Black soybean tempeh (BSBT), a traditional Indonesian food fermented with Rhizopus oligosporus fungus is rich in proteolytic enzymes, with potential to be utilized for thrombosis related ailments. Herein, we report the first findings of BSBT enzymatic activity and its subsequent formulation into liposomal system as a thrombolytic. Additionally, we incorporated photosensitizer dyes into the liposomes, phycocyanin and fluoresecein, creating a photothermally active therapeutic delivery system. Liposomes containing BSBTwere formulated using soy lecithin and tween 80, whichwere then subjected to evaluations including size, PDI, zeta potential, morphological, and stability studies. Furthermore, we observed their photothermal efficiency and thrombolytic activity using whole blood clot in vitro model. BSBT crude and purified extract produced satisfactory enzymatic activity, stable at neutral pH (∼7) and maintained stable activity at temperatures of ∼60◦C. Liposome formulation was spherical with a particle size of 607.8 nm; PDI of 0.339; and zeta potential of -24.2 mV. BSBT crude extract and purified enzyme at a concentration of 100% gave 51.28 and 56.05% thrombolytic activity. Based on the test results obtained, the optimum formula of photosensitizer liposomes produced had high encapsulation efficiency, with photothermal efficiency of 57.66 and 44.23% for Lip-Flu and Lip-Phy respectively. The formulations with laser exposure generated good thrombolytic activity (∼55-56%) comparable with nattokinase. Based on these findings, liposomal delivery of BSBT enzymes can maintain proteolytic activity, providing the first insights for thrombolytic purposes of BSBT enzymes.

Abstract

Parkia speciosa ethanol leaves extract contains flavonoid, tannin, and terpen as ulcus peptic remedy. These compounds exhibit limited activity in the stomach due to the short gastric residence time following oral administration. The formulation of gastroretentive tablets can overcome this limitation. This research aims to control the prolonged release of drugs in the stomach to increase bioavailability and characterize the ethanol leaves extract. Extraction was carried out by maceration using ethanol, followed by standardization based on specific and non-specific parameters extract. Gastroretentive tablet was formulated with combination of HPMC-K4M and chitosan using factorial design 22. Effects of compositional factors and their interactions on gastroretentive tablet was observed on hardness, friability, floating lag/duration time, swelling index, and mucoadhesive time. Results standardization extract showed that extract met the required criteria for both specific parameters (organoleptic properties and phytochemical screening) and non-specific parameters (moisture content, loss on drying, water/ethanol-soluble extract content). Based on with DX®10 analysis, the optimum formulation was achieved with 20.25% of HPMC-K4M and 10.26% of chitosan. The analysis of the optimum formulation characteristics was as follows: friability (0.22%), hardness (29.53 N), mucoadhesive time (22.86 hours), floating lag/duration time (27.54 minutes; 12 hours), and swelling index (312.82%). Result revealed that gastroretentive tablets formulated with ethanol extract of Parkia speciosa leaves improve gastric residence duration and promote better bioavailability.
