Abstract

The synthesis of dibenzalacetone, a ketone compound with potential antibacterial properties, especially against Escherichia coli, has typically involved time-consuming methods. This study adopts sonochemistry, an increasingly popular technique recognized for its efficiency and quick yield. The aim is to synthesize dibenzalacetone using the sonochemical method and evaluate its antibacterial efficacy against E. coli. The synthesis process includes a cross-aldol condensation reaction between acetone and benzaldehyde, catalyzed by NaOH, conducted in an ultrasonic bath at 35 °C for 1-5 minutes. The optimal synthesis condition, achieved in 4 minutes, resulted in a 76.56% yield of dibenzalacetone, characterized as a bright yellow solid with a melting point of 111-114°C. Techniques such as FT-IR, GC-MS, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectrometry were employed for structural characterization. The FTIR analysis revealed various functional groups, including C=O ketone, C=C aromatic, and C-H aromatic. GC-MS data confirmed the molecular weight of dibenzalacetone at m/z 234.1. Furthermore, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR analyses provided detailed insights into the compound's chemical shifts and structural groups, affirming the successful synthesis of dibenzalacetone. The antibacterial activity of dibenzalacetone against E. coli was tested at concentrations ranging from 5% to 20%. Notably, at a 15% concentration, dibenzalacetone exhibited antibacterial activity comparable to amoxicillin. These findings suggest that dibenzalacetone, efficiently synthesized via sonochemistry, not only achieves a high yield but also has potential as an antibacterial agent against E. coli. This research highlights the efficacy of sonochemistry for the rapid and effective synthesis of compounds with significant medical applications.

Abstract

Natural fibers, with environmental, economic, and cost advantages, are highly sought-after for biocomposite materials. In the present study, the biocomposite samples of epoxy resin (as a matrix), bagasse fiber (as reinforcement), and rice bran (as a filler) were prepared. Tensile strength, strain, and Young's modulus will be the parameters concerning which the quality of the biocomposite can be tested. On the one hand, bagasse fiber is to be a strength enhancer in the resulting biocomposite. On the other hand, rice bran may increase the biocomposite's density. The process research comprises fiber yarn from milled bagasse, alkalized fiber with KMnO4, specimen printing process, and analysis. All the fibers were treated by soaking them in 3 grams of KMnO4 solution for 30 and 45 minutes. The fiber is drained in an oven at 50 °C for ±1.5 hours. The printed fiber onto a specimen mold was printed with a mixture of epoxy resin and rice bran (1:1 w/w) and left for one day. Variation in the fiber mass was at 3, 4, and 5 grams. The sizes of the specimens were similar to the size of the mold according to ASTM D-638 type IV. Then, the fibers were removed from the mold and tested for tensile strength, strain, and Young's modulus. The results show that the greater the fiber mass, the greater the tensile strength value. These findings indicate that the tensile strength was optimized after soaking for 45 minutes with 5-gram fiber weight, which resulted in the tensile strength of 26.32±0.25 MPa, strain of 9.65±0.14%, Young's Modulus of 3.29±0.05 MPa, and water absorption of 41.99%.

Abstract

The growing demand for liquid soap has spurred innovations in soap formulations, particularly using methyl ester sulfonate (MES) as a surfactant base combined with natural ingredients like eco-enzyme and fragrant pandan leaf extract. This study aimed to determine the optimal liquid soap formulation by evaluating physicochemical properties and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. The research was conducted in two stages. First, liquid soap was produced at different temperatures (20°C, 50°C, and 100°C) to identify the optimal temperature based on maximum lipase activity. In the second stage, various formulations were prepared, incorporating eco-enzyme and fragrant pandan leaf extract at the identified optimal temperature. The six formulations tested were: F1 (MES-based soap), F2 (20% eco-enzyme), F3 (15% eco-enzyme and 5% fragrant pandan leaf extract), F4 (10% eco-enzyme and 10% fragrant pandan leaf extract), F5 (5% eco-enzyme and 15% fragrant pandan leaf extract), and F6 (20% fragrant pandan leaf extract). The formulations were assessed for lipase activity, pH, density, and viscosity. The most effective formulation was further tested for antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion method with six treatments, including MES-based soap and controls. Statistical analysis using One-Way ANOVA revealed that adding eco-enzyme and fragrant pandan leaf extract significantly affected the soap's properties. The optimal formulation, containing 5% eco-enzyme and 15% fragrant pandan leaf extract, exhibited a lipase activity of 15,778 U/mL, a pH of 5.02, a density of 1.06 g/mL, a viscosity of 3.59 cP, and an antibacterial zone of 37.22 mm, making it the best candidate for further development

Abstract

Diabetes, driven by unbalanced diets and unhealthy lifestyles, is highly prevalent. In Indonesia, its prevalence is projected to reach 28.6 million by 2045. Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) are paper-based analytical tools that use hydrophilic paper for measurement and hydrophobic barriers to control fluid flow. This research aims to develop a non-enzymatic method for detecting glucose and ketones in artificial urine using S2Z-μPADs. The fabrication of S2Z-μPADs involves printing the design on Whatman No. 1 paper using wax printing and applying silver nanoparticles for glucose detection and the Schiff base reaction for ketone detection. The results show that the optimum condition for glucose detection is achieved with an AgNO3 concentration of 500 mM. A NaOH concentration of 10 M. Acetoacetate detection is optimized with a glycine concentration of 1 M, sodium nitroprusside concentration of 15%, NaOH concentration of 1 M, a drying time of 8 minutes, and a reaction time of 10 minutes. Validation results demonstrate good linearity for glucose (R² = 0.9821) and ketones (R² = 0.995). High precision was achieved with relative standard deviation (RSD) values of 3.792% for glucose and 1.482% for ketones. The obtained limits of detection (LOD) and limits of quantification (LOQ) indicate that the developed S2Z-μPADs can differentiate between each category of diabetes. The accuracy of glucose and ketone detection ranges from 87.463% to 97.374%. The high accuracy of the μPADs highlights their potential for reliable diabetes management and effective disease monitoring.

Abstract

This study utilised molecular docking to predict the binding affinity of various fatty acids (FAs) found in Swietenia humilis to the sortase A (SrtA) protein target from Staphylococcus aureus. Binding energies, measured in kcal/mol, indicated the strength and stability of ligand-protein interactions, with lower values signifying stronger binding. The binding affinities of eight FAs as the active constituents in n-hexane extract of S. humilis and the positive control, gentamicin, were compared to assess their theoretical antibacterial activity. Palmitoleic acid exhibited the strongest binding affinity (-5.6 kcal/mol) among the FAs, suggesting the highest potential antibacterial activity, followed by linoleic, palmitic, linolenic, arachidic, tricosanoic, stearic, and oleic acids in decreasing order of affinity. Despite having weaker binding energies than gentamicin, a common gram-positive inhibitor from aminoglycoside derivative, FAs showed multiple hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions with key residues like ARG197, VAL168, VAL166, and ILE182, contributing to their binding stability. Palmitoleic acid formed multiple hydrogen bonds (ARG197 and GLY119) and significant van der Waals interactions, highlighting its strong theoretical binding. Stearic and oleic acids, although having higher binding energies, also formed critical hydrogen bonds, suggesting moderate potential activity. Gentamicin's single hydrogen bond suggests a highly specific binding site, which may result in high antibacterial activity despite fewer interaction points. The study indicated that FAs like palmitoleic and oleic acid show substantial potential as supplementary antibacterial agents, especially in the context of combating antibiotic resistance. This finding can pave a path for drug design and development to address the S. aureus's resistance.

Abstract

The intertextual-based e-book prototype helps students understand buffer solutions by connecting the three levels of chemical representation: macroscopic, submicroscopic, and symbolic. This connection allows students to visualize chemical phenomena from simple to complex. The study aims to enhance students' conceptual understanding using this e-book prototype. The research and development (R&D) method followed five stages: research and information gathering, product development planning, initial product development, limited trials, and initial product revision. This process yielded a highly validated e-book prototype that promotes innovation. The validation results showed high feasibility in substance (85.71%), instructional methods (90.90%), and language (100%). Experts deemed the e-book prototype highly effective in improving conceptual understanding through its intertextual approach. Pretest and posttest assessments of 30 students indicated improved conceptual understanding after using the e-book. Initially, students demonstrated macroscopic and symbolic level abilities without associating the three levels of representation. After using the e-book, they could connect these levels, enhancing their understanding and conceptual understanding. The N_Gain scores for pretest and posttest assessments were 0.48 for the high category, 0.45 for the medium category, and 0.44 for the low category, showing moderate improvement. The t-test results (Sig. (2-tailed) = 0.000 < 0.05) confirmed the effectiveness of the e-Book. Teacher and student responses averaged 90% and 85.5%, respectively, indicating that the intertextual-based e-book on buffer solutions is highly suitable as a self-learning resource to improve conceptual understanding.

Abstract

Integrating digital learning tools has become increasingly important for enhancing student engagement and learning outcomes in the rapidly evolving educational landscape. This research aimed to assess the feasibility of a developed e-module and its impact on student learning outcomes. The development process followed the ADDIE Model, comprising five stages: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The instruments used included interview sheets, e-module validation sheets, student response questionnaires, and a 20-item test instrument. The e-module was validated by experts based on content, presentation, language, and graphic criteria, achieving an average validity score of 91.6%, indicating strong validity. Following validation, the e-module was implemented with 36 eleventh-grade Science Program (XI MIA) students at a high Islamic school in Medan during the 2023/2024 academic year. The results demonstrated a significant improvement in student learning outcomes, as evidenced by an N-gain score of 0.76, which falls within the high criteria. Additionally, student responses to the e-module were overwhelmingly positive, with an average approval rating of 87%, categorising their feedback as "very good." The findings suggest that the developed e-module is feasible and effective in enhancing student learning outcomes. The high validation scores and positive student feedback indicate that the e-module is well-designed and meets educational standards. It is a valuable tool for improving student engagement and achievement in the classroom.

Abstract

Traditional Chemistry Laboratories, such as acid-base reactions, are hard to demonstrate for present-day students in their lab classes when they need to have the knowledge exchange we had, graduating (and teaching) with mortar boards lined up and ready for weddings. The Evaluation Of The Digital Platform “pH Master” For Enhancing Chemistry Student Performance Through A Virtual Imitation of Traditional Lab Practices The study used Akker's research and development model, including initial studies, product design, testing products, and trials. Validation was done using the Aiken formula by two expert validators and three practitioners for all items with a V value greater than 0.87. Surveys for needs analysis involved 45 students, and the learning effects were assessed with 90 students across three schools. Results Students responded favourably to the pH Master app and perceived ineffable pedagogical value. Most students agreed on the necessity of doing practical activities about what was being learned, and almost all also had trouble understanding study materials specifically related to acids and bases. The results showed a statistically higher mean n-gain value in the experimental group than in control one (0.6622 versus 0.5691) by independent t-test across three schools at p < 0,001 significance level between the two groups. This then confirms that the media created did support student learning. This study highlights the potential of the pH Master app to enhance student learning experience and active involvement in chemical education, which suggests a promising approach towards digitalising conventional practical work.

Abstract

The challenge of developing environmentally friendly synthesis methods for biologically active compounds remains a significant focus in green chemistry. This study aimed to synthesize 4'-hydroxy-4-nitro chalcone from 4-hydroxyacetophenone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde using a grinding technique and then characterize the synthesized compounds. The 4'-hydroxy-4-nitro chalcone was synthesized via the Claisen-Schmidt grinding method for 45 minutes at room temperature. The grinding results were extracted with chloroform. The formed crystals were tested for purity by thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and further purification was carried out by recrystallization. The synthesized chalcone was characterized using FTIR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR  spectroscopy. The chalcone was also tested for antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion method against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The results showed that 4'-hydroxy-4-nitro chalcone could be successfully synthesized from 4-hydroxyacetophenone and 4-nitrobenzaldehyde using the grinding technique, yielding orangish-white crystals with a 70.63% yield and a melting point of 173°C. Purity was confirmed by TLC, and structural characterization was achieved through FTIR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Antibacterial testing revealed that the synthesized chalcone produced a clear zone diameter of 9.27 mm against S. aureus and 27.88 mm against E. coli. These results indicate that the compound has relatively strong antibacterial activity against E. coli and relatively weak activity against S. aureus. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the green synthesis method and provides valuable insights into the antibacterial properties of 4'-hydroxy-4-nitro chalcone

Abstract

Indonesian students' scientific literacy scores decreased by 13 points from PISA 2018, indicating that the scientific literacy skills of participants in Indonesia are low. One area of concern is students' understanding of chemical equilibrium, which is essential because it is a prerequisite for grasping subsequent materials. This study aims to assess the feasibility of interactive e-worksheets as a learning medium for chemical equilibrium material in terms of validity, practicality, and effectiveness. According to Thiagarajan, the research employs the 4-D research and development model, which includes Defining, Designing, Developing, and Disseminating but is limited to the development stage. A limited trial was conducted using a one-group pretest-posttest research design. Validation results show that the interactive e-worksheet is valid with a mode value of 4 in content, presentation, language, and design. The validity test results yielded a mode value 4 for both content and construct validity. The practicality test results indicated a high percentage of practicality with very practical criteria. The effectiveness test, analysed using n-gain, showed an n-gain value of 0.78 with high criteria, and the paired sample t-test results indicated a P-value of 0.000, confirming that the post-test scores were significantly higher than the pretest scores. Thus, the PBL-oriented Interactive e-worksheet can improve students' scientific literacy skills.
