Abstract

Propolis, which is produced by Tetragonula sp., has the potential to treat a number of illnesses, including microbial infections, wounds, depression, and cancer. However, in order for propolis to be used as a raw material for traditional medicine, it must be standardized. The goal of this study was to standardize the values of specific and non-specific parameters. Propolis was extracted using the maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent until a thick extract was obtained, and the thick extract was tested for both specific and non-specific parameters. In terms of specific parameters, the obtained extract is a thick yellowish-brown liquid, has a characteristic sour propolis scent, and is sticky. Phytochemical screening also showed that the extract was positive for flavonoids, phenolics, alkaloids, saponins and tannins. Meanwhile, the nonspecific test obtained a drying shrinkage value of 35.059%, moisture content of 33.698%, specific gravity of 1.0082 g/ml, and total ash content of 1.26%. The results of the specific and nonspecific parameter tests have met the established extract requirements. Further quantitative identification of the activity of compounds in propolis is recommended for the development of traditional medicine.

Abstract

Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) have become a key component in modern biotechnology and healthcare, playing essential roles in the treatment of diseases such as cancer, viral and bacterial infections, asthma, and in diagnostic applications. However, conventional mAb production using mammalian cell systems is costly, time-consuming, and presents scalability limitations. To address these challenges, current technological advances have led to the development of alternative platforms using plant-based expression systems. This review aims to explore the potential and progress in producing monoclonal antibodies through the Nicotiana benthamiana plant-based expression system, which offers several advantages including rapid production, cost efficiency, greater production capacity, and reduced risk of contamination. The method employed in this review is a literature study conducted through database searches (Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct, and others) focusing on peer-reviewed articles from 2015 to 2024. The articles were selected and then analyzed thematically was performed to extract relevant data. The results indicate that Nicotiana benthamiana can efficiently produce functional mAbs with glycosylation profiles comparable to mammalian systems. In addition, plant antibodies have also been successfully applied in various therapeutic and diagnostic studies. Further research is needed to ensure the safety and effectiveness of Nicotiana benthamiana plant-based mAb, as well as efforts to develop production scale for wider medical applications.

Abstract

Pancasila sebagai dasar negara sekaligus jiwa kepribadian bangsa Indonesia menghadapi tantangan serius di era globalisasi, terutama dalam internalisasi nilai-nilainya oleh generasi muda. Arus globalisasi yang membawa budaya asing, gaya hidup individualistik, serta kemajuan teknologi informasi telah berdampak pada menurunnya pemahaman dan pengamalan nilai-nilai Pancasila. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat pemahaman, sikap, serta relevansi Pancasila bagi generasi muda. Metode penelitian dilakukan melalui studi literatur dengan teknik analisis isi yang mengkaji secara mendalam tema utama, kecenderungan berpikir, serta temuan penting dari literatur. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun sebagian besar generasi muda menyadari pentingnya Pancasila, masih banyak yang belum menerapkannya secara konsisten dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Oleh karena itu, dibutuhkan strategi edukatif yang adaptif seperti pendidikan karakter berbasis nilai Pancasila, pemanfaatan media digital, serta peran aktif keluarga, institusi pendidikan, dan masyarakat. Penanaman nilai Pancasila sejak dini menjadi langkah strategis untuk memperkuat identitas nasional dan ketahanan ideologi bangsa di tengah derasnya pengaruh globalisasi.
