Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of nanocrystalline cellulose and potassium chloride (KCl) to bioplastics from avocado seed starch and glycerol as plasticizer. In this study, nanocrystal cellulose obtained from palm fruit fiber was hydrolyzed using sulfuric acid (H2SO4) at a concentration of 50%. The starch used in this study was obtained from the avocado seed extraction process. On producing bioplastic, the casting method was used with the addition of nanocrystal cellulose as filler of 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% (%w), KCl as dispersing agent of 0%, 1%, 2%, and 3% (%w), and glycerol as plasticizer by 30 (%w). Based on the density test, the optimum value was obtained at 2% of nanocrystal cellulose and 2% of KCl with the value around 0.041 gram/cm3. The best water absorption values were 57.1% and 53.8% which obtained at 2% of nanocrystal cellulose and 1% of KCl. Scanning Electron Microscope test results showed uniformly distributed nanocrystal cellulose granules filling the surface of the bioplastic. The addition of KCl as dispersion agent give a good impact.

Abstract

An edible film serves to protect and improve food quality. One of the ingredients that can be used is pectin. However, edible films made from pectin have fragile mechanical properties, so snakefruit peel is added as a filler to improve mechanical properties. Edible films were prepared with concentrations from 0%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 6% (wt), pectin, glycerol (C3H8O3), calcium hloride dihydrate (CaCl2.2H2O) and Tween 80. It was stirred with magnetic stirrer, printed and dried in an oven to test the properties. As a result, the addition of snakefruit peel affected the thickness, swelling, degradation and antimicrobial. The thickness obtained is between 0.024 mm - 0.0172 mm. The swelling results obtained ranged from 0.0409 - 0.0137. The best degradation results were obtained on day 5th, with varying concentrations of 6% snakefruit peel. The results of the study on antimicrobial activity showed that maximal inhibition with varying concentrations of 6% snakefruit peel with an inhibition zone of 20.8 mm.

Abstract

The skin serves as a protective barrier against dust and ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Excessive UV exposure is associated with accelerated skin aging, erythema, hyperpigmentation, and carcinogenesis. This study aimed to quantify flavonoid concentrations and characterize phytochemical constituents in shallot skin extracts for their potential as active ingredients in sunscreen formulations. Shallot skin was subjected to microwave assisted extraction using 70% ethanol as the solvent. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and alkaloids in the extract. Flavonoid content was determined via UV-Vis spectrophotometry, yielding 36.33 mgQE/g. The high flavonoid concentration observed in shallot skin extract suggests its potential efficacy as an active ingredient in sunscreen formulations.
