Abstract

Problem-based learning (PBL) is a learning model where students learn through practical problems related to the real life. The students conducted to solve the problems solving being discussed through a series of learning systematically. This study aimed to improve the learning outcomes of students in the class XI IPA through the implementation of PBL model on colloid material at SMA Negeri 9 Palu. This study was pre-experimental research with one group pretest-posttest design. This study was conducted by using one group observed at the pretest stage and then continued with posttest to the students of class XI IPA 1 as experiment 1 (n = 26) and students of class XI IPA 2 as experiment 2 (n = 25). The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics by calculating of N-Gain Index. The results showed that the implementation of PBL learning model improved students’ learning outcomes in the class XI IPA on colloid material at SMA Negeri 9 Palu.

Abstract

Misconception is a conception of someone who is not in accordance with the scientific concept recognized by experts. Student’s who experience misconceptions will make mistakes in understanding concept’s and occur continuously. This study aimed to determine the percentage of reduction of students’ misconception in grade XI SMA 1 Palasa on salt hydrolysis by implementing contextual teaching and learning (CTL) approach. This study was a quantitative descriptive study with the number of samples of 2 classes, that’s Class XI Science A consisted of 22 students, and Class XI Science B consisted of 22 students. The instrument test was a reasoned multiple choice test accompanied by a certainty of response index (CRI) consisting of 20 items. The results showed that the percentages of the average reduction of students’ misconceptions in the class XI science A and in the class XI science B on salt hydrolysis with contextual teaching and learning (CTL) approach were 19.6 and 9.8%, respectively.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of ethanol and water extracts of celery (Apium graveolens L.). Antioxidant activity test in this study used DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazine) as a source of free radicals and vitamin C as a positive control. The antioxidant activity of celery extracts was analyzed using a UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Celery powder was extracted by firstly the maceration method using different solvents (ethanol and water) and secondly with the decoction method using water solvents. Celery extract was tested for antioxidant activity with various concentrations of 20, 40, 60, and 80 ppm. The results obtained that water extract (maceration) had a very strong antioxidant power with 23.713 ppm of IC50 values, for ethanol extract (maceration) had a strong antioxidant power with 59.492 ppm of IC50 value, water extract (dekok) had also a very strong antioxidant with 77.446 ppm of IC50 value, and vitamin C had a very strong antioxidant power with 15.631 ppm of an IC50 value. Based on the IC50 value obtained, the water extract by the maceration method was very good to be used as a source of natural antioxidants, because it had a very strong antioxidant activity value which was equivalent to vitamin C.

Abstract

The effect of copper(II) and cadmium(II) ions on the percent of mercury ion extraction using an emulsion liquid membrane technique have been performed. This study used HNO3 as an internal phase, mixed span 80 and span 20 as a surfactant, benzoyl acetone as cation carrier, kerosene as membrane phase, and mercury solution as a sample solution. Variations of concentrations of copper(II) and cadmium(II) ions added were 10, 20, and 30 ppm with mercury concentrations of 30 ppm. The result of the research showed that the addition of copper(II) ion with concentrations of 10 to 30 ppm decreased the percentage of mercury ion extraction 30 ppm by 12.12% and the addition of cadmium(II) ion with the concentration of 10 to 30 ppm decreased the percentage of mercury ion extraction 30 ppm by 11.74%.

Abstract

The Indian ash tree leaf (Lannea coromandelica (Houttuyn) Merrill) contains natural ingredients that can reduce blood glucose levels. This study aimed to determine the concentration of the Indian ash tree leaf extract which is the most effective to reduce blood sugar levels of mice. The leaf sample of the Indian ash tree plant was obtained from Talise sub-district, Mantikulore district, Palu, Central Sulawesi. The preparation of the extract was conducted by the maceration method. The animal testing used were 20 male mice that were induced by EDTA (ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid). Mice were divided into 5 groups as random with different treatments. Treatments I, II, and III were given an extract of 10, 20, and 40%, respectively, treatment IV was given Na-CMC as a negative control (-), and treatment V was given glibenclamide suspension as a positive control (+). The data obtained were analyzed by statistical analysis of variance analysis (ANOVA) and were continued by the Duncan test. The results showed that the Indian ash tree leaf extract can reduce the blood sugar levels of mice. The mean decreased blood glucose level at treatment I was 40.00 mg/dL, treatment II was 47.75 mg/dL, treatment III was 54.75 mg/dL, treatment IV was 1.75 mg/dL, and treatment V was 49.00 mg/dL. The conclusion of this research was that the Indian ash tree leaf extract could reduce the blood sugar level of mice with an effective concentration of 20% with α = 0.05.

Abstract

Utilization of pineapple is always focused on consumption for fresh fruit and animal feed. many people do not know the other benefits of pineapple. The presence of protease enzymes in it, increasing its utilization. The enzyme is bromelin, which can be obtained by isolating it from pineapple. For this reason, the aim of this study is to isolate the crude bromelain enzyme based on the maturity level of pineapple and then test its proteolytic activity. Pineapple was blended, then the filtrate was deposited, then centrifuged to obtain crude bromelain which is dried by the drying method and tested for its activity using milk substrate. The results showed that old pineapple is the best level of maturity and the sun is the best drying method with proteolytic activity of 0.053 and 0.056 MCU/mg respectively. Its optimum activity is pH 5.8 and 55 oC.
