Abstract

Accurate, precise, and reliable chromatographic and spectrophotometric methods were developed for determining clindamycin (CLD) in pharmaceutical formulations. The spectrophotometric method was adopted for flow injection analysis (FIA). The method is based on the online oxidation of CLD and measuring the absorbance of the resulting product using a flow cell at 605 nm. Experimental conditions, including FIA variables and reaction conditions, were optimized. The chromatographic separation was achieved using a C8 column and an isocratic mobile phase. The composition of the mobile phase selected for the analysis consists of a mixture of phosphate buffer (50%), MeOH (35%), and ACN (15%), adjusted to a pH of 3.47 by phosphoric acid. The eluent was monitored with a UV detector at 205 nm. The linearity range was 10–200 and 50–800 µg/mL for the FIA and HPLC, respectively. The applicability of the FIA and HPLC methods was validated by analyzing CLD in synthetic and commercial pharmaceutical products. No significant interferences were observed from the common excipients usually used in commercial formulations.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels. There are 2 types of DM where molecular-level diagnosis becomes very important because both have different treatments to avoid treatment errors. An electrochemical aptasensor as a type 2 DM detector with insulin target has been developed. This study aims to determine the interaction and specificity based on the values of RMSD, RMSF, and binding energy between aptamer and insulin when it reaches stability in silico compared to HbA1c and glucose. Docking simulations were performed on the HDOCK webserver and dynamics simulations for 1000 ns on the aptamer and protein molecular models used. The simulation results were analyzed to see the stability and visualized using VMD to see the conformation of the aptamer-ligand complex. The docking result showed higher binding energy between aptamer-insulin compared to other molecules, namely −221.87 kcal/mol. The results of RMSF and RMSD analysis of molecular dynamics simulations show that the system is stable, has the best binding energy value of −9.9510 kcal/mol. The aptamer complex with insulin showed better specificity compared to glucose and HbA1c based on RMSD, RMSF, and binding energy.

Abstract

The new two-component complexes of Rh(III) as well as VO(IV), with the base of Schiff ligand associated with the isatin derivative N1,N2-bis(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)ethanebis(thioamide) (L) were prepared by one-step method reaction between isatin compound and dithiooxamide by condensation in presence of glacial acetic acid and investigated through applying the FTIR, UV-vis devices, evaluation of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and halogens elements using elemental analysis, flame atomic absorption, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductivity, GC-MS, LC-MS, XRD, 1H and 13C-NMR. Depending on the results obtained from the measurement techniques, the structure of Rh(III) complex was octahedral geometry, while VO(IV) complex was square pyramidal geometry. The antibacterial property for the prepared Schiff-based ligand L and metallic complexes 1 and 2 in this research was examined towards two different kinds about pathological microbes growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, respectively, in comparison with conventional antibiotic cephalexin.

Abstract

Bixin is used in wide-ranging food applications but is susceptible to degradation by many factors, including light. This research aims to increase bixin photostability through metal complexation. Bixin was complexed with Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, and Se4+. The synthesis process was carried out in deep eutectic solvent media. Metal-bixin complexes have been successfully synthesized, indicated by the change in retention factor and %III/II ratio values resulting from thin-layer chromatography and UV-vis spectrophotometer analysis, respectively. The Fourier transform infrared analysis showed the interaction between central metal ion with bixin ligand has occurred by hydroxyl and carbonyl groups of bixin, which was characterized by a decrease in the intensity of the absorption peak in wavenumber 3000–4000 cm−1 (for the –OH carboxylic group vibration) and the peak shift of metal-bixin complexes towards the larger compared to bixin in the range wavenumber 1600–1700 cm−1 (for C=O ester vibrations). First-order photodegradation kinetics studies showed that the metal-bixin complexes were more stable than pure bixin. Se-bixin was four times more stable than pure bixin. Complexation of bixin with metals was shown to be a potential method to increase the stability of bixin, especially against light exposure.

Abstract

The synthesis of pure TiO2 and X% Au/TiO2 NPs was achieved via a sol-gel technique. The influence of Au concentration on structural, morphological, and optical features, as well as photocatalytic activity, was studied. XRD analysis revealed the presence of crystallized titanium consisting of anatase and rutile phases. The surface composition and electronic structure of TiO2 and X% Au/TiO2 catalysts were investigated using XPS analysis. Au/TiO2 consists of Ti 2p, O 1s, and Au 4f regions from XPS analysis. FESEM and TEM were utilized to analyze the morphology of the samples. FTIR spectrum indicated the presence of OH, CH2, and Ti–O–Ti groups in TiO2 samples, with an additional peak at 2108.89 cm−1 indicating the presence of gold in X% Au/TiO2 samples. The specific surface area increased from 33.36 m2/g for pure TiO2 to 51.62 m2/g after the doping of 2.5% Au NPs. The incorporation of Au on the TiO2 surface significantly influenced the optical properties in the 490 to 590 nm region, observed through the UV-vis absorption spectrum. The 2% Au/TiO2 NPs exhibited higher catalytic activity than pure TiO2, degrading methylene blue dye by 72.43% within 120 min.

Abstract

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are being studied extensively as nanostructures for novel and enhanced biomedical applications. Nanoparticles in bone grafts have been shown to speed up fracture healing by providing a finer structure for bone tissue engineering. They are known to have excellent antimicrobial properties due to their high surface-to-volume ratio and small particle size, without affecting the material's mechanical properties. AgNPs' distinct property makes them the preferred filler in a wide range of biomaterials, where they play an important role in enhancing properties. AgNP-containing biomaterials can be easily tailored to meet specific requirements in the development of bone tissue. Adjusting size, shape, composition, and surface charge can enhance their effectiveness in interacting with bone cells, promoting cell attachment, and delivering growth factors. Using AgNP-based biomaterials can help prevent or reduce the formation of biofilms. The utilization of these materials in bone tissue engineering has demonstrated potential in treating musculoskeletal conditions and bone traumas. They are versatile for various applications such as bone implants, scaffolds, wound dressings, and antibiotic delivery systems. This review will cover several special topics, including silver-based biomaterials, toxic properties, morphology and mechanical properties of silver-based biomaterials, and applications of silver-based biomaterials in medical applications.

Abstract

Tetra-alkoxysilane (TROS) is one of the useful chemicals and it can be processed to produce semiconductor and photovoltaic devices. Now, the transformation of silica (SiO2) to TROS is garnering interest due to the potential of extracting it from biomass. As the 14th largest country, Indonesia possesses an abundant source of SiO2 from mining activities and agricultural waste, notably rice husk (RH). However, only a little concrete action is planned for leveraging RH into a more valuable industrial substance. This review will explain two routes for TROS—conventional and direct—comparing their respective benefits and drawbacks. Additionally, it presents a simulation of various scenarios for scaling TROS production to an industrial level, considering technoeconomic and environmental assessment aspects. The focus then shifts to Indonesia’s strategic trajectory for 2045, offering recommendations to enhance resource utilization for economic and national development.

Abstract

Dairy cow's milk is a primary commodity in various countries and increasing milk production in dairy cows is crucial. Clitoria ternatea has the potential to enhance milk production in dairy cows. This research aims to analyze C. ternatea's ability to induce milk production in dairy cows by targeting the DRD2 protein. The compounds within C. ternatea were screened for drug-likeness, toxicity, physicochemical properties, and membrane permeability parameters. The DRD2 protein in dairy cattle was modeled using homology modeling. The interaction stability between C. ternatea compounds and DRD2 was analyzed through molecular docking and dynamic using AutoDock Vina and Webgro. The study results revealed that among the 18 compounds, 5 passed the drug-likeness screening: citronellal, alpha-terpinolene, 15-methyxypaysine, allyl-crotyl-zinc, and 9,12-octadecadiynoic. These 5 compounds exhibited low toxicity and demonstrated easy penetration of lipid membranes. Molecular docking results indicated that citronellal and alpha-terpinolene had the lowest binding energy values and were bound to the inhibitor's side. Molecular dynamic simulations also confirmed the stability of the interaction between citronellal and alpha-terpinolene with DRD2. In conclusion, this research suggests that C. ternatea can potentially increase milk production in dairy cows by inhibiting the DRD2 protein, primarily through citronellal and alpha-terpinolene.

Abstract

Citronella oil (CTO) is extracted from citronella leaves by maceration or steam distillation process, which has antibacterial and insect-repellent activities. However, the use of CTO is limited and requires modification in other formulations, such as microemulsion (ME), to increase its bioactivities. ME consists of oil, water, surfactant and/or cosurfactant and is commonly applied in food and beverages, cosmetics, and carrier for drug delivery applications. CTO was used as the oil phase for ME with nonionic surfactant and ethanol as a cosurfactant for lowering interfacial tension between oil and water phase. Subsequent observations regarding stability and antibacterial tests were carried out on ME formulations with surfactant/cosurfactant mixture of 2 due to its largest ME area. A hydrodynamic diameter analysis was also carried out to see the stability of the ME within a period of 50 d. ME with 10% CTO, 30% surfactant mixture, and 60% water showed the best formulation observed from the consistent hydrodynamic diameter measurement. In addition, ME with different formulations could inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus by more than 90%. From this research, CTO-based ME potentially improve and develop drug carrier applications, especially via topical route.

Abstract

The use of natural rice straw as a filler for composite materials has not been optimally utilized; only around 7–16% of the grain is used in the industry. Various developments have been carried out, including its use as a filler or reinforcement for wood polymer composite products, but it is not effective because of poor interfacial adhesion. An alternative to increase the effectiveness of straw fibers in wood composites is by using cold plasma (atmospheric) treatment. In this research, composites consisting of straw fiber and biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix were made with and without cold plasma injection treatment. PVA is used because of its hydrophilic nature and function as a matrix. This research aims to determine the effect of cold plasma injection on straw fiber/PVA composites. The method used consists of preparation of straw fiber and composites, flexural testing with time variations of 10, 20, and 30 sec, morphological analysis using SEM to determine surface roughness, and FTIR test. The results showed that treatment with and without plasma provided significant differences in roughness. Plasma causes roughness to increase, thereby increasing the adhesion of the interface to the matrix.
