Abstract

 Semiconductors have conductivity levels between insulators and conductors which can be applied in various fields such as photocatalytic, adsorption, and Dye Sensitizer Solar Cell (DSSC). However, some semiconductors are only active under ultraviolet light, therefore to improve their utilization, modifications are made by producing a hybrid combination of two or more materials or dopping materials. This study aims to obtain a semiconductor material with a low band gap energy from the Fe2O3/TiO2 composite material. Fe2O3/TiO2 composites were synthesized by the solid-state method and characterized by XRD, SEM-EDX, and UV-Vis. The characterization using XRD showed the peak intensity of TiO2 and Fe2O3. The morphology of the material obtained using SEM-EDX showed an even distribution of particle size, as well as the distribution of Ti, Fe, and O elements. The optical properties of the composite showed strong absorbance in the UV region for higher TiO2 compositions. On the other hand, composite materials with a higher Fe2O3 composition showed stronger absorbance in the visible light region.

Abstract

Determining the 3D structure of proteins using laboratory instrumentation is time-consuming and expensive. The in silico method can be used as an alternative to predict the 3D structure of proteins, such as the fold recognition method. This study aims to create a 3D structural model of rice's (Oryza sativa) protein superoxide dismutase (SOD). The 3D structure modeling of the protein was carried out with the Phyre2 web server. The protein sequence was obtained from the UniProt KB database with the code A0A6F8FUX1. The results showed that the suitable template used to build the model was the template with the code c1unfX. The c1unfX template has a coverage value of 80%, 100% confidence, and i.d. of 51%. Validation of the model with the PROCHECK program showed that the most favored area on the Ramachandran Plot was 87.8%, and the disallowed area was 1.1%. The disallowed area, which is still below 15%, indicates that the three-dimensional structure model of the SOD protein built from the c1unfX template has good a value.

Abstract

Human lifestyle is currently experiencing many changes that lead to unhealthy lifestyles. An instant lifestyle can trigger degenerative diseases, which are initiated by excessive oxidation reactions in the body, which can cause the formation of free radicals. Lemon juice, derived from the Citrus limon plant, is considered a functional beverage due to its antioxidant properties, which have the potential to counteract the harmful effects of free radicals. This study aimed to measure the antioxidant activity of lemon juice beverage based on the IC50 value. The present study adopted a descriptive laboratory approach, utilizing lemon juice beverages from three distinct brands as representative samples. The antioxidant activity test was carried out by adding DPPH and measured using UV-Vis Spectrophotometry. The antioxidant levels obtained were 1,091.17 µg/mL for sample A, 1,114.50 µg/mL for sample B, and 527,261 µg/mL for sample C. All samples exhibited antioxidant activity values that fell within the "very weak" classification, as shown by IC50 values above 200 µg/mL.

Abstract

Aloe vera powder has a less bright color due to the browning reaction. Pretreatment was carried out to improve the quality of aloe vera flour. Aloe vera flour can be used to manufacture food products, one of which is vermicelli. This study aimed to determine the effect of different pretreatments, namely blanching, sodium metabisulfite immersion, sodium bisulfite immersion, and steam blanching, on the characteristics of aloe vera flour and its application to vermicelli. The research steps included aloe vera pretreatment and aloe vera flour production, vermicelli production with aloe vera flour substitution, and analysis. The results showed that the pretreatment produced aloe vera and vermicelli flour with a brighter color. Pretreatment also affects water content, water-holding capacity, oil-holding capacity, and cooking properties. But the pretreatment did not affect the sensory properties of vermicelli.

Abstract

Peat water from Central Kalimantan is generally yellow to brownish-red in color. It causes peat water to not be used as a source of water for daily needs. Humic acid, fulvic acid, and humin are organic compounds that cause peat water to become colored. One alternative step that can be taken for reducing the color intensity of peat water is to degrade color-causing organic compounds by using an oxidizing agent. A hexavalent form of iron ion (Fe6+), commonly called ferrate (FeO42-) in potassium ferrate compound, is a powerful oxidizing agent used in the present study. Potassium ferrate (K2FeO4) was synthesized by a wet oxidation method and characterized using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer and an X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD). The ferrate solution is purplish-red in color with a maximum wavelength of 510 nm. The XRD pattern shows strong diffraction peaks at 2θ which are characteristic of K2FeO4. The ferrate solution was then used to degrade color-causing organic compounds  in the peat water from Central Kalimantan. Determination of the optimum degradation conditions was monitored by the absorbance decrease of organic compounds in peat water at a wavelength of 370 nm. The results showed that ferrate solution with a concentration of 80 ppm was able to degrade organic compounds in peat water at pH 8, with a  removal efficiency of 100%. Keywords: oxidizing agent, ferrate ion (FeO42-), peat water

Abstract

Magnetite, chemically represented as Fe3O4, is an opaque substance characterized by its black coloration. It possesses a significant saturation magnetization value, denoting a substantial magnetic strength compared to alternative materials. Magnetite (Fe3O4) has significant use across several domains, including its deployment as a catalyst and sensor in the medical sector, such as drug delivery, hyperthermia therapy, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The synthesis of magnetite (Fe3O4) can be achieved using several methodologies, such as solvothermal, sol-gel, solid state, reverse micelle, microwave plasma synthesis, freeze drying, ultrasound irradiation, hydrothermal, and coprecipitation techniques. The co-preparation technique is extensively employed for magnetite synthesis due to its simplicity, ease of usage, and ability to generate magnetic particles at the nanoscale scale without elevated temperatures. The outcome of the coprecipitation process is influenced by various factors such as the nature of the salt, molar ratio, pH level, stirring rate, and reaction temperature. This article aims to examine the impact of many factors, including the salt type, molar ratio, pH level, stirring rate, and reaction temperature, on the production of Magnetite (Fe3O4) through coprecipitation. It was found that Magnetite (Fe3O4) synthesis can produce nanoparticle size material with great magnetic power, namely at pH 8, temperature 70°C, and stirring rate of 10,000 rpm by using FeCl3 and FeCl2 as precursors Fe3+ and Fe2+ with a ratio of 1.5:1 and using precipitating base NH4OH.

Abstract

Vegetable farmers in South Kalimantan use pesticides to protect crops from pests. The active ingredient of the pesticide has a broad toxic effect on target and non-target organisms. Continuous exposure to pesticides causes cancer. The plant of mantle (Stenochlaena palustris) is thought to have potential cytotoxic activity against cancer cell growth. The aim of this study was to examine the potential activity of chemical compounds in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) exposed to organophosphate pesticides in silico and in ovo. The in silico study used molecular docking and virtual screening methods. The methanol extract of malachite was obtained by maceration method. The in ovo study was carried out by injecting pesticide compounds and methanol extracts of methanol at doses of 0.5 and 1 ppm to free-range chicken eggs. The results of the in silico analysis showed that ethion and neophytadiene had the most negative G values, namely -8.62 kcal/mol and -8.39 kcal/mol, while the natural ligand 8 LY A 500 was -9.19 kcal/mol. The similarity of the type and number of residues in the binding complex between ethion and neophyadiene ligands with ALK protein indicates the potential for competition between ethion and neophyadiene when bound to ALK protein. Neofitadiene is suspected as a compound that has potential as anti-cancer by inhibiting the growth of ALK. Anchovy extract is considered to be able to slow down the rate of cell damage in chicken embryos caused by ethion with its inhibitory ability so that the cell surface is not damaged quickly.
