Abstract

This research aims to investigate effect of learning using natural product mini project laboratory on students’ critical thinking skills. The research was conducted on sixth semester of 59 students of chemistry and chemistry education program from one of the state universities in West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia in 2012/2013. This research revealed class where the student learn using natural product mini project laboratory had more critical thinking skills than those using verification laboratory. The average n-gain of critical thinking skills for experiment class was 0.58 while for the control class was 0.37. The highest n-gain in the experiment class was 0.70 for “deciding on an action (selecting criteria to judge possible solutions) indicators”, while the smallest n-gain was 0.47 for “the making and judging value of judgments (balancing, weighing, and deciding) indicators. We concluded that the natural product mini project laboratory was better than verification laboratory in improving the students’ critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Porous aluminosilicate materials included microporous and mesoporous ZSM-5, hierarchical aluminosilicates, and mesoporous aluminosilicate were tested for acetalization of furfural (furan-2-carbaldehyde) with propylene glycol. The existing synthesis methods for aluminosilicate and ZSM-5 were modified to produce aluminosilicate material with hierarchical porous structure. Catalytic activity in acetalization of furfural by propylene glycol were conducted by refluxed of the mixture of furfural, propylene glycol and catalyst, using toluene as solvent and nitrobenzene as internal standard, at 106 °C for 4 h. The result showed that a combination of two structure directing agents, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and modification of catalytic crystallization produced an active aluminosilicate framework that provides a wide access for a bulky reactants and strong acid sites to catalyze the reaction. The pore structure and the strength of the Brønsted acid sites were crucial for the high conversion of furfural to produce a cyclic acetal.

Abstract

Two mixed –ligand complexes [Cu(bipy)2N3(ClO4)] and [Cu(5,5’-DiMebipy)2(N3)](ClO4) have been prepared and characterized. The compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, IR and UV-Visible spectroscopy, room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements, and conductivity measurement, while the solid-state structures have been established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. [Cu(bipy)2N3(ClO4)]crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with cell constants a = 16.9027(3) Å, b = 7.59087(9) Å, c = 17.2614(3) Å, β = 111.2808(19)° and Z = 4. [Cu(5,5’-DiMebipy)2(N3)](ClO4) also crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with the cell constants a = 16.0312(11) Å, b = 7.9889(5) Å, c = 20.7167(18) Å, β = 110.285(8)° and Z = 4. The UV-Vis spectra and X-ray determination indicate that [Cu(bipy)2N3(OClO3)] is distorted octahedral ligand field and non-electrolyte in nature while [Cu(5,5’-DiMebipy)2(N3)](ClO4) is a square pyramidal five coordinate complex and a 1:1 electrolyte. The magnetic moments of the two complexes in the range 1.78–1.83 B.M. reveal a single unpaired electron with a slight orbital contribution.

Abstract

Terbium-161 (161Tb) is a potential radiolanthanide due to its favorable properties for treatment small size of cancer. Preliminary study on radiochemical separation of 161Tb from Gd/Tb matrix using Ln resin column based on extraction chromatography method has been carried out. 161Tb radionuclide was produced by irradiation of natural Gd2O3 target through neutron thermal bombardment at G.A. Siwabessy Multipurpose Reactor. Fractions eluted from the column containing Gd/Tb matrix of irradiated natural Gd2O3 target were identified and quantified using a γ-rays spectrometer with HP-Ge detector coupled to a multichannel analyzer. The results show that the optimum condition on 161Tb separation from irradiated Gd2O3 target with radionuclide purity 99.27 ± 0.30% was obtained using HNO3 solution with concentration of 0.8 and 3 N to separate gadolinium and terbium isotope, respectively. The yield of 161Tb obtained from the separation was 61.21 ± 2.05% and Gd recovered was 97.15 ± 2.23%. Based on this experiment, 161Tb has been separated from irradiated natural gadolinium oxide target with high radionuclide purity.

Abstract

Synthesis of graphite/PbTiO3 composite as a catalyst in photodegradation and photoelectrodegradation process of methyl orange have been conducted. The purposes of this research are to study the effect of radiation time, composition of composite, voltage and pH of solution for methyl orange degradation. Photodegradation process of methyl orange was carried out for 5; 10; 15; 20; 25 and 30 min. Ratio of graphite : PbTiO3 (w/w) were varied at 1:3; 1:2; 1:1; 2:1 and 3:1. Meanwhile, the applied voltages were 7.5; 10 and 12.5 V and the photoelectrodegradation was conducted under pH condition of 3; 7; and 11, respectively. The result showed that optimum composition of graphite/PbTiO3 in the methyl orange photodegradation was obtained at 1:1 ratio for 30 min with degradation up to 90.43% ± 0.062. The degradation reaction follows first order reaction with a rate constant of 0.0688 min-1. The optimum voltage is 10 V, in which it reduced the methyl orange concentration up to 92.65% ± 0 with a rate constant 0.0941 min-1 for first order reaction. The optimum pH is pH = 11, that provide methyl orange reduction up to 95.28% ± 0.082.

Abstract

An investigation on purification and characterization of amyloglucosidase enzyme from Endomycopsis fibuligera by fermentation of sago starch has been carried out. This enzyme is inductive and can be produced by fermenting sago starch in a medium containing E. fibuligera. Crude enzyme was obtained by centrifuging the medium cultures containing E. fibuligera at 6,000 rpm for 20 min and then adding with 0.15 M acetate buffer (pH 5.0). Enzyme activity was determined using Somogyi-Nelson method by quantifying the released glucose from amyloglucosidase catalysis of starch (0.2%) as substrate. Prepurification process was conducted by ammonium sulphate fractionation and it showed that the ammonium sulphate fractionation with the degree of saturation of 40-60% produced a maximum activity of enzyme. Purification by DEAE-Cellulose and Sephadex G-75 column chromatography produced three and one fractions with purifity 17.4 and 22.5 times, respectively, compared to the crude extract enzyme. Characterization of this enzyme showed the optimum condition at pH 5.0 and 55 °C with 0.2% starch as substrate. The amyloglucosidase activities was strongly increased by addition of Co2+ and Mn2+ ions, whereas the activities were weakly decreased by addition of K+, Mg2+, and Fe3+ ions.

Abstract

The general objective of this study is to preserve natural colorant extract of jalawe fruit peel in water-based solution during storing. The specific objectives in this research are finding suitable type and amount of antimicrobial compound to prevent biological degradation of the natural colorant jalawe extract, as well as determining the colorant half-life by evaluating its degradation rate. The colorant extract solution was added to a reactor followed by addition of an antimicrobial compound. Samples were taken at certain periods of time and they were then centrifuged to separate the flock from the mixture. The amounts of colorant compound in the solution and microbes in the flock were analyzed using a gravimetric method. The results showed that solutions of formaldehyde in water and chitosan in acetic acid could inhibit the degradation of jalawe extract. The most effective concentrations of formaldehyde and chitosan in the jalawe extract were 0.015 and 0.125%, respectively, with respect to total volume of the extract. The half-life of jalawe extract in a water based solution with the addition of formaldehyde and chitosan was 140 and 180 days respectively, while that without any addition of the antimicrobial compounds was 25 days.
