Abstract

Low science literacy in students will have an impact on students' ability to solve problems. To improve it, it is necessary to develop an assessment instrument in the form of a science literacy instrument. This study aims to develop valid, reliable problem solving and science literacy assessment instruments for students. The material chosen is ion equilibrium in salt solution. The research was conducted in high, medium and low ability schools namely SMA Negeri 1 Pekanbaru, SMA Negeri 12 Pekanbaru and SMA Negeri 15 Pekanbaru. There are 16 questions out of 20 questions that are constructively valid with a correlation value> 0.36. The questions developed have met the reliability requirements with a Cronbach alpha coefficient value greater than 0.6, reaching a value of 0.874. The level of difficulty of questions between 0.3 -0.7 is in the good enough category and differentiating power ≥ 0.3. Based on two trials, namely one-on-one trials and limited trials, the same results were obtained that the assessment instruments developed for students had very good readability aspects (85%), good adequacy aspects (64%) and assessment instruments developed for teachers had very good feasibility aspects (91%). There is a significant difference in the ability of students in high schools with medium and low ability schools.

Abstract

The impact of integrating the Common Knowledge Construction Model (CKCM) with Chemical Bonds-focused Podcasts on students' collaboration skills and cognitive learning achievements is investigated in this study. A quasi-experimental design was employed, with cluster random sampling to select the experimental (N=23) and control (N=30) classes from a private high school in Solo City. Descriptive and inferential analyses were conducted, employing the Mann-Whitney test for hypothesis testing. Results showed that the CKCM approach significantly enhanced collaboration skills (p < 0.001) and learning achievements (p = 0.014), indicating substantial educational benefits. In conclusion, integrating the CKCM with Chemical Bonds podcasts positively influenced students' collaboration skills and cognitive learning achievements. Moreover, this comprehensive model addressed conventional learning objectives and integrated elements of ethnoscience, providing students with a broader and more culturally contextualized understanding. The CKCM model, supplemented by podcasts, facilitated a dynamic learning environment that actively engaged students in knowledge construction. These findings advocate for integrating CKCM and podcasts into educational curricula, offering a scalable model for enhancing 21st-century skills.

Abstract

Candlenut shells can be utilized as precursors for Carbon Dots (CDs) since new nanoscale materials have been proven using lignin, cellulose, hemicellulose, and carbon present in candlenut shells. A carbon substance smaller than 10 nm in size, CDs have special optical properties. This research focuses on the synthesis of CDs and Nitrogen Carbon Dot (NCDs) from hazelnut shell using urea passivation agent by hydrothermal and solvothermal methods, to determine the effect of solvent on the emission produced by CDs and NCDs. Hazelnut shell was carbonized at 300°C for 6 hours. The synthesis of CDs and NCDs was carried out at 220°C for 8 hours, then sonicated at 75°C for 30 minutes. The synthesis results were centrifuged at 5000 rpm for 30 minutes, filtered using Whatman No.42 filter paper. Analysis with a 365 nm UV lamp produced bluish green luminescence, brighter luminescence was shown in NCDs by solvothermal method. UV-Vis spectra showed absorbance peaks of 289-309 nm for CDs and 335-350 nm for NCDs. FTIR spectra of CDs and NCDs produced OH, CH, C=C, C=O, C-N, CO, and C-O-C functional groups. Photoluminescence analysis showed emission peaks of CDs and NCDs at 494 nm and 496 nm for hydrothermal method, for solvothermal method at 418 nm and 432 nm. CDs and NCDs with hydrothermal method showed higher intensity than with solvothermal method. The quantum yield values obtained were 11.4226% and 25.7419% and 10.2555% and 11.7473% for hydrothermal and solvothermal methods, respectively. Solvothermal method was effective for the synthesis of CDs and NCDs with brighter luminescence.

Abstract

This research aims to compare the effectiveness of sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid catalysts in the esterification of frankincense cinnamic acid (STYRAX paraleoncomud PERK). Esterification of sulfuric acid catalyst is carried out with ethanol and for hydrochloric acid catalyst with methanol. Esterification was carried out by refluxing a mixture of 1:20 cinnamic acid - ethanol and methanol, with 3 mL of each catalyst at a temperature of 60oC for one hour. The results were rinsed with 3 x 50 mL distilled water and dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate. The results were filtered and verified for functional groups using FTIR and composition analysis using GC “ MS. The results of FTIR interpretation show a decrease in absorption intensity (-OH) at 3500 cm-1 as a functional group that reacts compared to the ester results as an indication of the ongoing esterification reaction. The resulting ethyl cinnamate has a high conversion of 84.42%. Methyl cinnamate also has a distinctive ester aroma but is clearer and based on GC-MS, the content of methyl cinnamate is relatively low, namely 34.40%, the remaining cinnamic acid is 37.28%, and various side products of 28.32%. Thus, the catalyst that provides better conversion is sulfuric acid, but it requires further purification by examining the appropriate absorbent and bleaching agent. The brown color of the ester product catalyzed by sulfuric acid is thought to occur due to the oxidation of the cinnamic acid double bond by the catalyst.

Abstract

Atherosclerosis is a condition characterized by inflammation in the arteries, which is linked with the accumulation of lipids and alterations in metabolism. Considering that atherosclerosis is the main factor causing death in the world, it is necessary to carry out immediate prevention and treatment to reduce the risk of developing clinical severity. The creation of foam cells, which originate from macrophages, is considered a key element in cardiovascular ailments, particularly in the advancement of atherosclerosis. Two types of the nuclear receptors known as Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and liver X receptor α (LXRα), which serve as a primary regulator of cholesterol, intracellular lipid homeostasis and they are instrumental in the process of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). Activation of these receptors could potentially decrease foam cell formation, consequently lowering the risk of atherogenesis and reducing cardiovascular disease risk. This research aims to determine sterol derivative compounds in Tagetes erecta Linn. which have the best interaction and potential as anti-atherosclerosis through peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and liver X receptor α (LXRα) activation. The analysis of this study is using docking molecular analysis. The parameters observed in this study were docking score, visualization results, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion profile, and toxicity value. The molecular docking outcomes indicate that β-sitosterol and 7β-hydroxysitosterol possess the most favorable binding energy values. They exhibit a positive pharmacokinetic profile, with the exception of gastrointestinal absorption and respiratory toxicity.
