Abstract

Gelatin  has  been  successfully  extracted  from  chicken  clawsby  acid  hydrolysis method through four major stages of degreasing, demineralization, extraction and drying. The yield of  extracted  gelatin obtained  from wet chicken claws  was about 6.21  %  (w/w). The  effectiveness  of  gelatin  as  preservative  applied  in  beef  and  fish  was  physically, chemically and microbiologically  studied  by  organoleptic  analysis,  peroxide test, bacteria inhibition  test  and  number  calculation, respectively. Organoleptic analysis by hedonic  test shows  there  were significant  differences  for  color  and  texture  parameters  between  gelatin coated  samples  and control  samples  at  concentrations  of  1:1  (w/w).  Peroxide number analysis  by  iodometry  indicates  the  use  of  gelatin  in  the  preservation  of  meat  and  fish decreased the oxidation number. The result of inhibition test againts Staphylococcus aureus bacteria  shows  the  gelatin  concentration  of  20  %  provided  greatest  halo  zone  diameter (inhibitory  region)  as  19.44  ±  2.11  mm. The colony bacteria test shows the use of gelatin potentially  inhibited  the growth  of  bacteria  up to  75  %.  Overall,  the results  conclude  that gelatin  extracted from chicken claws  has the potential  activities  as a  natural preservative for beef and fish.

Abstract

The use of TiO2  powder  as photocatalyst still provides some disadvantages such as the difficulties in regenerate ion, the low adsorption and turbulence . These problems can be overcomed by providing the photocatalyst as a composite of ZnO-TiO2. This research aims to  investigate  the  effect  of  composition  of  solvent  and  temperatureof  synthesis  on  the quality  and  photocatalytic  activity  of  ZnO-TiO2  which  was  prepared  by  sol-gel  method. The  photocatalytic  activity  was  determined  by  applying  the  composite  in  degradation  of Procion  Red  MX-8B  under  irradition  of  UV  light  for  24  hours.  The  procion  red concentration after degradation was determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Meanwhile the effect of synt hesis temperature on crystal structure  of composite  was studied by XRD. The results show that the composite which was prepared by PEG 1500 at 1:4 of moles ratio and at 70  °C of  synthesis temperature has  highest degradation  percentage,  i.e. 55.375 % and photocataltic activity of 3.561 x 10-7mg/cm2s.

Abstract

A Research on CdS synthesis in reverse microemulsion of Igepal CO-720 system has been conducted at various weight ratio of water to surfactant. Igepal CO-720 naturally forms  oil  in  water  (o/w)  emulsion  type  due  to  its  high  HLB  (Hydrophilic -Lipophilic Balance)  value.  Therefore,  in  this  research  the  Igepal  CO-720  system  was  inversed  into water  in  oil  (w/o)  system  before  it  was  used  as  microreactor  for  CdS  synthesis.  As comparison,  a  system  of  AOT  (Aerosol  OT;  sodium  bis (2-ethylhexyl)  sulfosuccinate) which  is  naturally  w/o  system  was  also  used  as  microreactor  for  CdS  synthesis.  The prepared  CdS  was  analyzed  by  X-ray  diffraction  for  crystal  identification,  scanning electron microscope for morphological analysis, UV-Vis for absorption edge determination and  photoelectrochemical  testing  for  photoactivity.  The  results  show that the  Igepal  CO -720  system can  be  inverted  into  w/o  system  and  can  be  used  as  microreactor  for  CdS synthesis. The prepared CdS is in nanosize with the average diameter of 2.517  ±  0.014 nm and  the  average  gap  energy  of  3.805  ±  0.178  eV.  The  prepared  CdS  in  Igepal  CO-720 system has less regular form in comparison with morphology of the prepared CdS in AOT system. As the ω  values decreases the particle diameter decreases, the gap energy increases and the %  IPCE increases. It indicates that high surfactant concentration allows small size micelles  formation  and  produced  smaller  CdS  particle  that  has  high  surface  area  and therefore  provide  higher  photocatalytic  activity  which  was  indicated  by  high  value  of  its % IPCE.

Abstract

Research on the preparation and characterization of sulfonated polystyrene (PST) /chitosan vanillin (KV) composite as electrolyte membranes has been conducted in order to investigate the effect of PST and KV composition  to its chemical and physical properties. Polystyrene was modified by sulfonation reaction to produces PST, meanwhile chitosan was modified by schift base reaction to produces KV. The composite membranes were prepared by casting method and were characterized in order to identify the functional groups contained in the composite, the cation exchange capacity (CEC), the Swelling Degree (SD), the thermal properties and the morphology. The peak of imine vibration in the FTIR spectrum indicates that the chitosan vanilin was succesfully synthesized. Meanwhile, the peak of sulfonate vibration indicates the product of sulfonation on polystyrene. The result of CEC analysis shows that the addition of sulfonate groups on polystyrene and the addition of phenolic groups on chitosan increase the CEC value. The increasing of PST and KV concentration in membrane enhance the CEC value. However, the increasing of PST concentration in membrane composition even decrease the Swelling Degree of membranes. Meanwhile, the increasing of KV concentration increase the swelling degree of membranes. Thermal analysis shows that the thermal decomposition of membranes occurs in three stages i.e. the dehydration of water molecules, the degradation of the subtituen groups and the plasticizer and the degradation of the back bone of chitosan and polystyrene.
