Abstract

The increasing global demand for sustainable, eco-friendly, and intelligent food packaging has driven the development of biodegradable materials capable of not only reducing plastic pollution but also actively sensing food spoilage. This research presents the design and evaluation of an edible rice paper derived from Manihot esculenta (cassava) leaf fibers integrated with natural pH-responsive anthocyanin indicators from Clitoria ternatea (butterfly pea flower). The material exhibits visible color changes in response to pH variations associated with food decomposition, enabling real-time monitoring of food freshness. Mechanical, physicochemical, and colorimetric properties of the developed bio-film were systematically characterized. Results demonstrate that the film exhibits significant pH-sensitive color transformation, desirable mechanical strength, antioxidant activity, and rapid biodegradability when compared with conventional synthetic polymers. These findings support the potential of this material to serve as a green alternative to traditional plastic packaging, enhancing food safety while mitigating environmental impacts. This work contributes to sustainable packaging innovation and addresses critical challenges of plastic waste and consumer health risks linked to synthetic packaging materials.

Abstract

The development of the Islamic economy and finance in Indonesia has led to an increasing need for dispute resolution mechanisms that are effective, efficient, and compatible with Sharia principles. Badan Arbitrase Syariah Nasional (Basyarnas) functions as a non-litigation dispute resolution institution in the field of Islamic economics. This study aims to examine the legal standing of Basyarnas within the national legal system and to analyze strategies for optimizing its role as an out-of-court forum for resolving Islamic economic disputes. Based on a normative juridical review employing statutory and conceptual approaches, and secondary data collected through document analysis, This study finds that the legal existence and strategic role of Basyarnas continue to face various challenges, including the weak recognition of its decisions by judicial institutions, the low level of business actors? literacy regarding Sharia arbitration mechanisms, and limitations in human resources and institutional infrastructure. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the regulatory framework governing the legal standing of Basyarnas as a dispute resolution institution, enhance inter-institutional harmonization, improve the competence of Sharia arbitrators, and promote the digitalization of arbitration services as strategic measures to reinforce Basyarnas?s role as an integral part of the Islamic economic dispute resolution system in Indonesia.
