Abstract

In vitro antibacterial activity of chalcone derivatives from “temu kunci” (K. pandurta) rhizomes against clinical isolate bacteria has been done. Two chalcone derivatives, panduratin A (1) and 4-hydroxypanduratin A (2) were isolated from Kaempferia pandurata rhizomes. Isolation of the chemical components were done with extraction (maceration), vacuum liquid chromatography and radial chromatography methods. The structures were determined by NMR spectroscopy (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, 1D and 2D), then compare with data from literatures. Antibacterial activity was carried out with reference to the CLSI microdilution method, against eight clinical isolate bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Shigella dysentriae and Vibrio cholerae. Compounds 1 and 2 showed significant antibacterial activity with highest activity against S. aureus and B. subtilis with MIC values of 2.4 to 18.8 µg/mL and MBC values of 4.8 to 37.5 µg/mL. These results showed these compounds as potential antibacterial agent for clinical isolate bacteria.

Abstract

Research of chromium (VI) separation has been done using polymer inclusion membrane (PIM) method. This study aims to generate PIM, separate the metal ion chromium (VI) using PIM and determine the effect of the concentration of the feed phase, the thickness of the membrane and the amount of usage of the membrane for ion chromium (VI) diffusion.Polymer inclusion membrane (PIM) was made by mixing Aliquat 336-TBP as carrier compounds, PVC as the base polymer, DBE as a plasticizer and THF as a solvent. PIM membrane was placed between the source of analyte as a feed phase and result of the separation as a receiver phase. Feed phase was electroplating waste metal containing chromium (VI) at pH 4, while the receiver phase was a 2 N NaCl solution with a pH 6.7. The change of variables in this study were the concentration of the feed phase at various dilution i.e., 100x, 50x and 10x, the thickness of the membrane i.e., 25 μm, 20 μm and 10 μm, and the time of membrane using i.e., 1, 2 and 3 times. The concentration of chromium (VI) diffused after separation process was analyzed by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The stability of membrane was observed by analyzing the presence of membrane’s component in the feed phase and in the receiver phase. The analysis was conducted by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Meanwhile, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was used to determine the morphology of membrane surface.The results showed that the chromium ion concentration diffused from the feed phase was 99.24%, meanwhile the 85.88% of it diffused to the receiving phase. The highest Cr(VI) ions diffusion was occured at the first use of PIM membrane with a thickness of 10 μm and the concentration of the feed phase was 10.55 ppm (resulted from 100 times dilution). Therefore, it can be concluded that the diffusion of chromium (VI) ion was influenced by the concentration of feed phase, the thickness of membrane and the number of membrane application.

Abstract

This research was conducted to study the effect of catalyst type of CoMo/USY and the reaction time on the deoxygenation reaction of 4-methoxyphenol. The catalyst type used were CoMo/USY, Co-Mo/USY, and Mo-Co/USY. The product was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The activity of the Co-Mo/USY catalyst is higher than CoMo/USY and Mo-Co/USY, it can be seen from the value of total yield and the selectivity. The Co-Mo/USY catalysts shows a significant increasing on the total yield percentage (from 3.71 % to 9.41 %) during catalytic testing. The Co-Mo/USY catalyst has a highest selectivity toward 1,4-dimethoxybenzene product when the reaction time was one hour (0.92 %) and selectivity toward 1,4-dihidroxybenzene when reaction time two hours (0.43 %).

Abstract

The synthesis of chitosan–TiO2 film composite using sorbitol as plasticizer has been conducted. This research aims to develop environmental friendly plastic material which is safe for health due to the use of biodegradable chitosan - TiO2 that can block UV rays and therefore, maintain the quality of product from damage caused by UV rays. The anatase phase TiO2 nanocrystal was synthesized in chitosan matrix at room temperature and aging process. The solution was then added and blended in sorbitol for 24 hours to obtain homogeneous solution. The composite film was formed by coating method on a plate substrate, followed by drying. The characterization of film composite by XRD, TEM and FTIR showed the forming of anatase phase TiO2 nanocrystal that dispersed in chitosan matrix and formed the hydrogen bond. Meanwhile, from the physical properties characterization it was observed that the use of sorbitol as plasticizer had improved the plasticity tensile strength and elongation of the composite film. However, the excess sorbitol reduced the elasticity, tensile strength and elongation of the plastic. The best quality of plasticity obtained from film composite added by 3 % of sorbitol.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine antioxidant activity of cashew apple dreg extract and their antioxidant activity in traditional processing of coconut oil. Cashew apple dreg was extracted by ethanol and fractionation by DCM, n-hexane and water. The antioxidant activity from dreg extract was determined using 2,2-diphenyl-1-pycrylhydrazil (DPPH). The result showed that all ethanol fractions of cashew apple dreg contain flavonoid and tannins/polyphenols. Based on scavenging DPPH all of ethanol fractions showed antioxidant activity. The greatest DPPH inhibition was observed for ethanol extract. On the contrary, n-hexane fraction showed the lowest IC50. Application in traditional processing of coconut oil showed that the addition 2,5% ethanol extract provide the best product according to the lower content of peroxide value and TBA number.

Abstract

Porous gelatin carbons (KPG) sample with micropores were synthesized from gelatin via templating method. This study analyzed microporosity using the Dubinin– Radushkevich (D-R) equation. The result shows that KPG sample has microporous type with empirical parameter n=2 which describing the homogeneous degree of KPG with the high order of micropore filling. D-R plot shows that the increasing the ratio of gelatin to SBA-15 led to the decreasing the microporosity of samples. However, this increases the size and pore volume due to the success of templating process.The result of TEM shows the carbon particle aggregation and FTIR result shows that carbon particle were dominated by the functional group of oxygen and hydrocarbon. The energy of adsorption range of 5-10 kJ/mol and a value of n=2 demonstrated that the adsorption of nitrogen on the porous gelatin carbon (KPG) physically occurred which is applicable to the next gas adsorption process.
