Abstract

Kemajuan teknologi yang pesat akan membawa pengaruh terhadap kehidupan. Penggunaan teknologi yang tepat akan memudahkan aktivitas manusia, contohnya dalam bidang pendidikan. Pendidikan dapat diakses dengan mudah melalui komputer, laptop dan ponsel pintar. Berbagai bidang ilmu memanfaatkan kecanggihan teknologi, salah satu contohnya adalah Biologi. Ilmu Biologi menggunakan perangkat lunak untuk permodelan, dan prediksi, yang biasa disebut in silico. Tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini adalah untuk mengenalkan ilmu Biomolekuler secara sederhana dan aplikasinya melalui pendekatan in silico pada siswa SMA. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan ini dengan menjelaskan materi tentang in silico dan penerapannya dalam kehidupan, serta diadakan tanya jawab. Hasil dari pengabdian ini terlihat dari tanggapan positif dan antusias siswa.

Abstract

This study aimed to compare the antioxidant activity of young and mature bidara leaves using the DPPH method and to identify the content of secondary metabolites through phytochemical testing. Antioxidant activity was measured using the IC50 parameter, which represents the concentration of the extract that can capture 50% of DPPH free radicals. The test results showed that mature bidara leaves had an IC50 value of 34.984 ppm, indicating vigorous antioxidant activity, while young leaves had an IC50 value of 100.327 ppm, classified as moderate activity. Phytochemical testing revealed that both types of leaves contained alkaloids, saponins, and tannins, while flavonoids and triterpenoids were only found in old leaves. These results suggest that variations in secondary metabolite content, influenced by leaf age, contribute to differences in antioxidant activity. Thus, older bidara leaves are more potent as an antioxidant source compared to younger leaves. This study supports the utilization of bidara plants in the pharmaceutical industry and the development of traditional medicine based on natural ingredients.

Abstract

Soursop leaves (Annona muricata) are known as a plant that has the potential to treat breast cancer, which has a high mortality rate in women in Indonesia. The receptor that plays the most important role in breast cancer development is the Estrogen Receptor Alpha (ERa). This study aims to identify active compounds in soursop leaves that have the potential to inhibit breast cancer cell growth through in silico analysis using molecular docking of the ER? receptor using KNApSAck, PASS Online, PubChem, PDB ID, PyRx, and Discovery Studio software and Histochemical analysis was performed using fresh soursop leaves by making an incision on the lower part of the leaf and adding reagents AlCl, FeCl, Na2CO, CuSO4, glycerin, Wagner reagent, immersion oil, and ethanol, then observed microscopically. The in silico results showed the presence of specific compounds from soursop leaves and one reference compound (OHT600). Cis-Solamin had the highest binding affinity (-9.3 kcal/mol), better than the native ligand (-7.6 kcal/mol), and interacted with the amino acid Glutamine 532 (GLU532). Histochemical analysis showed the content of flavonoids, phenols, tannins, terpenoids, and alkaloids, accompanied by color changes in trichome and stomatal tissues. Based on the research data, it was concluded that soursop leaves can inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells through the content of secondary metabolites that actively inhibit Er? receptors.

Abstract

Iron nanoparticles (Fe-NPs) were synthesized from pomegranate peel extract using ethanol as a solvent. The antibacterial activity of the synthesized Fe-NPs against pathogenic bacteria (S. aureus and E. coli) was assessed using the well diffusion method. The morphology, structure, size, and atomic distribution on the surface of Fe-NPs were characterized using SEM-EDS, UV-Vis, and FTIR spectroscopy. Different pH conditions (5, 7, and 9) were investigated as experimental factors for Fe-NPs preparation. The results revealed mostly irregular spherical shapes with particle sizes ranging from 1 to 89 nm, with the smallest size observed at pH 9. UV-Vis spectra confirmed the formation of Fe-NPs, appearing in the UV region around 230-295 nm. FTIR spectra indicated the presence of polyphenolic compounds from the pomegranate peel extract, which facilitated Fe-NPs stabilization and acted as bioreductants. Upon reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(0), oxidation of O-H and C-O functional groups occurred. The diameters of inhibition zones against the tested bacteria were 16 mm at pH 5, 13 mm at pH 7, and 15 mm at pH 9, indicating strong antibacterial activity.

Abstract

Kacang hijau (Vigna radiata L.) termasuk ke dalam suku polong-polongan yang mengandung bahan baku berprotein nabati tinggi. Pertumbuhan tanaman kacang hijau dapat dipengaruhi oleh pemberian hormon termasuk hormon etilen yang dapat diperoleh secara alami dari buah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh dari gas etilen alami yang dihasilkan oleh buah tomat (Solanum lycopersicum) terhadap pertumbuhan tanaman kacang hijau (Vigna radiata L.). Gas etilen merupakan hormon tumbuhan berbentuk gas yang berperan dalam proses pematangan dan penuaan, namun pada fase awal pertumbuhan tanaman, gas ini dapat memengaruhi proses perkecambahan dan perkembangan vegetatif. Penelitian dilakukan secara eksperimental selama tujuh hari di Laboratorium Orchidologi Universitas Islam Malang, dengan menggunakan empat perlakuan, yaitu satu kontrol (tanpa tomat) dan tiga perlakuan dengan penambahan tomat. Parameter yang diamati meliputi tinggi batang, bentuk batang, jumlah daun, dan kondisi akar. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan gas etilen dari tomat menghambat pertumbuhan tanaman kacang hijau. Tanaman yang diberi perlakuan menunjukkan batang tinggi lebih pendek, bentuk batang yang tebal dan kerdil, serta jumlah daun lebih sedikit dibandingkan dengan kontrol. Meskipun akar tetap tumbuh lebat, perkembangan tanaman secara keseluruhan terganggu. Kesimpulannya, gas etilen dari tomat memiliki pengaruh negatif terhadap pertumbuhan awal tanaman kacang hijau, khususnya dalam fase perkecambahan dan pertumbuhan batang serta daun
