Abstract

Clove leaf oil (Syzygium aromaticum L.) is obtained from distilling clove leaves. This study aimed to examine the effect of clove leaf oil on the preservation of milkfish meat. Clove leaf oil was obtained by steam distillation and purified by a simple distillation method. The number of microbes was determined using the total plate count (TPC) method, while the organoleptic test used a level of preference for color, smell, texture, and taste. The results showed that the pH and the number of fish meat bacteria at a concentration of 8%, when left for one day, were 6.61 and 2.46 × 10-7 CFU/mL, while the three days was 7.2 and 2.98 × 10-7 CFU/mL, a concentration of 10% in 1 day which was 6.64 and 2.03×10-7 CFU/mL while the three days was 7.25 and 2.54 × 10-7 CFU/mL and a concentration of 12 % in 1 day was 6.67 and 1.83 × 10-7 CFU/mL while three days was 7.57 and 2.07 × 10-7 CFU/mL, besides that from organoleptic test data the panelist preference rate was more significant in the concentration of 12 % then the concentration of 10  and 8 %, respectively. The results showed that at a concentration of 12%, it was a good concentration to be used as preservation compared to a concentration of 10 % and a concentration of 8%, both for a 1-day and a 3-days. This shows that the higher the concentration of clove leaf oil, the greater the ability to preserve fish meat.

Abstract

Critical thinking is the ability to solve problems through an investigation so as to produce conclusions or rational decisions. This study aimed to obtain an improvement of critical thinking skills of students in Grade XI at SMAN 3 Palu after the implementation of the guided inquiry learning model on Colloid Systems. This study was a pre-experiment with one group pretest-posttest design. The sample was run by simple random sampling with the sample of Class XI Science 1 as the replication class 1 (n = 36) and Class XI Science 3 as the replication class 2 (n = 35). Data on students' critical thinking was taken using tests that were given before and after learning. An improvement in students' critical thinking skills in replication class 1 and replication class 2 was by 50%. Data of students' critical thinking skills were tested using non-parametric statistical analysis, namely the Mann-Whitney test. The test results obtained the Zh value -0.076, so -1.96 ≤ -0.076 ≤ +1.96. This result is in the reception area of Ho, and H1 is rejected. It means that the average score of critical thinking ability of students in the replication class 1 is the same as in replication class 2. This study concluded that the implementation of the guided inquiry learning model on Colloid Systems improves the critical thinking skills of students in Grade XI at SMAN 3 Palu.

Abstract

An extraction method based on a combination of hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction with high-performance liquid chromatography diode array detector (HF-LPME HPLC-DAD) has been developed and demonstrated to analyze pesticide residues in vegetables. This study aims to determine the optimum extraction conditions and validation performance of this method. Diazinon pesticide was selected as the target model analyte. HF-LPME is performed by stacking microliter organic solvent droplets through an HPLC syringe coated with polypropylene hollow fiber by directly dipping it into the sample solution and stirring it during the extraction process. Finally, the organic solvent was put into an HPLC syringe at the end of the extraction. Then, it was injected into the HPLC-DAD at the wavelength of 247 nm. Several important extraction parameters have been optimized. The optimization results showed the type of organic solvent of n-hexane, the length of the hollow fiber of 1.5 cm, the volume of the sample solution of 20 mL, and the stirring speed of 600 rpm. The validation performance obtained a limit of detection (LoD) of 0.10 mgL-1, limit of quantification (LoQ) of 0.33 mgL-1, percent recoveries of 99.88%, a coefficient of variation of 3% (n=15), and the enrichment factor of 19,982 times. Under optimal conditions, the developed method was applied to extract diazinon in vegetable matrix samples using the spiking method. Mustard green was selected as a model matrix sample. From the research, the percentage recoveries of diazinon obtained in the mustard green matrix sample are 98.80% - 100.41%.
