Abstract

Cataract is an eye disorder that is at risk of causing blindness. The risk of blindness can be prevented by detecting cataracts as well as the right action in the form of surgery. Examination of cataracts in the eye poly usually uses equipment in the form of a slit lamp. This equipment is only available in hospitals that have eye poly. The lack of hospitals that have slit lamps will cause the number of cataract sufferers to increase. To be able to help overcome this we need a cataract detection system that is easy to implement. In this research, a classification system based on digital image based on the range of histogram values ​​was made. The equipment used to obtain digital images is the Nikon D90 12.3 Megapixel camera with Nikon 50 mm F1.8 AFD lens. The results obtained indicate that the range values ​​for normal eyes are 29–46, immature eyes 54 - 67 and mature eyes 91 - 121. It appears that mature eyes have the highest range. It is hoped that this method can help detect and classify cataracts based on digital image processing.

Abstract

Analysis of Chromium (Cr) heavy metal content in sediment have been done at inner part of Ambon Bay by using Atomic Absorption Spectrofotometer (AAS). This analysis has been done in six sampling areas, they are : Galala (the first locations), Lateri (the second location), Negeri Lama (the third location), Waeheru (the fourth location), Poka (the fifth location), and Halong (the sixth location). The study aims to determine the content of chromium metal (Cr) in sediments at inner part of Ambon Bay. The analysis showed that the Cr metal content ranged from 33.68-191.74 mg/kg. The chromium (Cr) heavy metal content in sediments is mostly among the quality standards set by the ANZECC (Australian and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council) in 2000, which is 80-120 mg/Kg

Abstract

Aloe vera is a functional plant because can be used to treat various diseases, including skin diseases by Staphylococcus aureus infection, which causes inflammation of the skin, ulcers, acne, and so on. This research aimed to determine the inhibited effect of Aloe vera gel to the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and the most effective concentration for the resistance against both of bacteria tested. Antibacterial activity of Aloe vera gel was tested using well diffusion method on Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) at different concentrations 30; 40; 50; 60; 70%. Observation was conducted after incubation for 48 hours at room temperature. The results showed that Aloe vera gel inhibition the growth of S. aureus, it was indicated by the formation of inhibition zones. The most effective of Aloe vera gel inhibiting the growth of S. aureus at 70% with the size 12,81 mm. This shows that the higher the concentration of aloe vera gel is given, the greater the diameter of the inhibition zone.

Abstract

The utilization of corncob ash as an alternative base catalyst source for biodiesel production has been studied to determine the corn cob's ash potential in transesterification proccess from waste cooking oil. Corn cob ash properties was analyzed by AAS and alkalinity test to measured potassium levels and its form. Alkaline solution was obtained by stirring corn cobs ash in methanol for 4 hours. Transesterification of waste cooking oil was carried out by varying ash amount for 5, 10, 15, and 20 g (molar ratio of methanol/oil 6:1 at 60 oC for 2 hours and stirring speed was kept constant); and methanol /oil molar ratio for 3: 1, 6: 1, 9: 1 and 12: 1 (optimum amount of ash). Methyl esters content was determined by GC-MS, while some physical and chemical properties of biodiesel were measured using the ASTM standard method. Potassium content of corncob ash was 38.76% (wt), the potassium might be presence in carbonate form. Optimum condition of biodiesel conversion was reached at the use of 10 gr corn cob ash and methanol/oil molar ratio of 6: 1. GC-MS data showed that biodiesel from waste cooking oil are methyl esters which are dominated by methyl linoleate and methyl palmitate. The quality of biodiesel products (viscosity and density) meets the requirements of biodiesel specifications according to SNI 7182-2015. Corn cobs ash can be used as an alternative basic catalyst source for biodiesel transesterification. On the other side waste cooking oil and corn cobs value can be improved by using them in the transesterification process.

Abstract

A method for the determination of diazinon in soil samples has been developed. The analyte was extracted with acetonitrile from farmland soil sample. Determination and quantification of diazinon were perfomed by high perfomance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with an UV detector. Optimum conditions for diazinon analysis were eluent composition of acetonitrile:water ratio of 60:40, 0.4 mL/min of flow rate, and 220 nm of wavelength. Under the optimum conditions, diazinon linearity was between 1 and 25 mgL-1 with R2 of 0.9976, 1.19 mgL-1 LOD, and 3.98 mgL-1 LOQ. When the method was applied to the soil sample, both pesticides showed acceptable recoveries for real sample of more than 85%: thus, the developed method meets the validation requirement. Under this developed method, the concentrations of diazinon in the soil samples were below the LOD and LOQ (0.577 mgL-1). Therefore, it can be concluded that the soil samples used in this study did not contain diazinon.

Abstract

Biodiesel is one type of alternative diesel fuel that is environmentally friendly,can be updated and used as a substitute for diesel. Used cooking oil has the potential as a raw material for making biodiesel because it contains triglycerides and free fatty acis that can be converted into methyl esters. The general production of biodiesel is produced through esterification and transesterification reactions using chemical and biological catalysts. The purpose of this study was to determine the process of making biodiesel using used cooking oil with biocatalyst crude extract of kesambi seed lipase. The stages of research are, purification of used cooking oil, isolation of crude extract of lipase enzyme, analysis of hydrolysis activity test of transesterification activity, hydrolysis of oil esterification activity test, esterification activity, hydrolysis of oil esterification activity test, esterification reaction, separation of biodiesel, and characterization of biodiesel. The data analysis used was descriptive quantitative data analysis and the transesterification activity test was carried out by multiple linear regression test. Based on the results of the study it was obtained that the density was 0.8605 g/cm2, the viscosity was 1.397 mm2/s and the acid number was 0.65 mgKOH/g.Thus, making used cooking oil biodiesel using a crude lipase extract biocatalyst needs to be done in an effort to develop biodiesel production by utilizing kesambi seeds as biocatalysts.
