Abstract

Eggshells containing CaCO3 have potential as bioceramics for several tissue engineering applications. The content of CaCO3 converted into Ca(OH)2 can be used as a precursor to implant material. The purpose of the study was to compare two methods of converting CaO into Ca(OH)2 as the primary material for making hydroxyapatite. The method used is direct contact with air and dissolution with water. Hydroxyapatite synthesis using Ca(OH)2 is calcined from CaCO3 with a sintering temperature of 900 °C. The result of calcination is in the form of CaO. The stages of obtaining Ca(OH)2 by converting CaO using two methods, namely direct contact with air and dissolution with water. The XRD characterization results obtained that Ca(OH)2 results from direct contact with air show the formation of phase (portlandite), which is characterized by its presence at the highest typical 2θ angles = 18.18°, 28.68°, 34.30°, 47.40°, 50.92°, 54.16°, and 62.62°. The XRD Ca(OH)2 pattern with the distilled water distribution process shows the formation of a phase (portlandite) characterized by its presence at angles of 2θ = 18.18°, 28.68°, 34.30°, 47.40°, 50.92°, 54.16°, and 62.62 °. The results of FTIR Ca(OH)2 characterization of air contact and water dissolution showed strong O-H functional groups at wave numbers 3643 cm-1 and 3642 cm-1, C-O groups at 1487 cm-1 and 1483 cm-1. This suggests that both methods can convert CaO to Ca(OH)2, which synthesizes hydroxyapatite. The hydroxyapatite characterization results obtained have met the standard.

Various brands and forms offer a wide array of cream-based cosmetic products. However, only some of these products meet safety specifications. Aloe vera and nutgrass, two plants rich in bioactive compounds, possess anti-inflammatory, soothing, and antibacterial properties, making them ideal for health-safe cosmetic formulations. This research was conducted to develop antibacterial cream formulations incorporating these natural additives. The study focused on quality, organoleptic testing, and the formulated cream's antibacterial assessment. The research methodology encompassed several key processes: preparation of Aloe vera gel and nutgrass rhizome ethanol extract, formulation of the cream, quality testing by SNI 16-6069-1999 standards, organoleptic testing as per SNI 01-2346-2006, and antibacterial activity testing using Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 bacterial strains. Results indicated that the cream formula enriched with Aloe vera gel and nutgrass rhizome ethanol extract meets the standards for skin-lightening creams and exhibits significant antibacterial capabilities. Furthermore, it was observed that the antibacterial effectiveness of the cream increases with the concentration of the nutgrass rhizome ethanol extract. These findings highlight the potential for integrating natural ingredients into modern cosmetic formulations, providing therapeutic and aesthetic benefits. This approach not only ensures compliance with safety standards but also leverages the natural properties of Aloe vera and nutgrass to enhance the product's functionality in skin care applications

Abstract

Coffee is one of the most popular beverages globally, cherished for its unique taste, aroma, and the stimulating effects of its caffeine content. The proliferation of creative coffee shops has introduced various new methods for enjoying coffee, including cold and hot brew techniques. These processing techniques can significantly influence the physicochemical characteristics of coffee, particularly its caffeine content. This study compares the caffeine content in Robusta coffee using cold and hot brewing techniques. The hot brew coffee was prepared using water at approximately 96°C with a French press for six minutes. In contrast, the cold brew method involved brewing with water at room temperature (20-25°C) using a French press, followed by storage for 12 hours in a refrigerator (2-8°C). Qualitative analysis involved examining the color reaction, while quantitative analysis was conducted using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). HPLC is a highly accurate method that is extensively used in the food and pharmaceutical industries. The results indicated that the caffeine content in cold-brewed Robusta coffee was significantly higher, with a concentration of 44.63 μg/mL ± 0.199% and a Relative Standard Deviation (RSD) of 0.4459%. Conversely, hot-brewed coffee showed a caffeine concentration of 23.96 μg/mL ± 0.278%, with an RSD of 1.1602%. The parametric Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) revealed a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference in caffeine levels between hot-brewed and cold-brewed coffee. These findings suggest that the choice of Robusta coffee processing technique can be crucial for individuals with specific health conditions seeking to manage their caffeine intake.

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

The study investigates chitosan crosslinking from clam shells (Cerithidea obtusa) with tripolyphosphate for cadmium (II) adsorption. Chitosan was prepared by deacetylating chitin using 60% NaOH and heating at 140°C for 60 minutes. Chitin was isolated from Cerithidea obtusa shells, an abundant waste in East Kalimantan. Crosslinking of chitosan with tripolyphosphate was synthesized via gelation methods, dissolving 5 g of chitosan in acetic acid and adding 0.1% tripolyphosphate as a crosslinker. The chitosan-tripolyphosphate characterization was conducted using FTIR, XRD, and SEM. FTIR spectra revealed an N-H vibration at 1635 cm−1, NH3+ deformation at 1534 cm−1, C-O stretching at 1072 cm−1, and P-O vibration at 1026.91 cm−1, indicating the presence of tripolyphosphate in chitosan. The XRD pattern showed broad peaks at 19.85° and 23.50°, characteristic of amorphous chitosan-tripolyphosphate. SEM images depicted a flat sheet without pores and a tight surface. Cadmium (II) adsorption on chitosan-tripolyphosphate at an optimum pH of 4 followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. It adhered to the Langmuir isotherm model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 27.8 mg/g. The results demonstrate that chitosan crosslinked with tripolyphosphate effectively for cadmium (II) adsorption.

Abstract

Polyaniline (PANI) metal oxide composites are known for their high electrical conductivity, environmental stability, and enhanced mechanical strength, making them valuable in applications such as sensors, batteries, and electromagnetic shielding. This study focuses on synthesizing and characterizing PANI/CuO nanocomposites to examine their structural, morphological, and functional properties at different synthesis temperatures. By integrating the conductive polymer PANI with copper oxide (CuO), a p-type semiconductor with a narrow band gap, the material’s capabilities are significantly enhanced. The oxidative polymerization of aniline, the process by which PANI is formed, requires precise control of oxidizing agents and reaction conditions, as these factors directly affect the polymerization, conductivity, and overall properties of the resulting nanocomposite. The PANI/CuO nanocomposites were synthesized at three different temperatures: 10℃, 25℃, and 50℃, to determine how temperature affects their characteristics. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were employed to analyze these nanocomposites. FTIR results revealed shifts in the quinoid and benzenoid rings, indicating hydrogen bonding between the NH group of PANI and the CuO surface, which accelerates charge transfer. The SEM analysis showed that while pure PANI exhibits a uniform globular morphology, the PANI/CuO nanocomposites display a nanorod morphology. These morphological differences impact the surface area and electrical conductivity of the composites, highlighting the significance of temperature in tailoring the material's properties for specific applications.

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.
