Abstract

Param is well known traditional medicine for keeping healthy and treating diseases used by Karo Ethnic groups in North Sumatera. Param is a powder made of various nutritious plants and therefore its contents of the heavy metal were determined by using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) for qualitative analysis and Atomic Adsorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) for quantitative analysis. The result obtained for the analysis param taken from two samples were 11.814mg/kg and 25.4 mg/kg for Fe, 0.658 mg/kg and 4.536 mg/kg for Cu, and 12.728 mg/kg and 15.184 mg/kg for Zn. Param used as external medicine the content of Fe was 29.36 mg/kg, Cu was 7.368 mg/kg, and Zn was 27.688 mg/kg. The content of all was found in metal, fulfilling the Standart of the Food and Drug Regulatory Agency.

Abstract

The use of Genjer (Limnocharis flava) as an adsorbent for ions of Copper (Cu2+), Lead (Pb2+), and Zinc (Zn2+) contents in the water has been studied. Firstly, Genjer powder was cut to pieces, dried, blended, and activated with HCl 10% for 24 hours. The two grams powder of Genjer was activated by HCl 10% added into each 100 mL copper (Cu2+) standard solution, lead (Pb2+) standard solution, and zinc (Zn2+) standard solution with a concentration 20 mg/L. Stirred for 24 hours, filtered and measured concentrations ions of copper (Cu2+), lead (Pb2+), and zinc (Zn2+) using an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The result of the research showed that the powder of Genjer (Limnocharis flava) that has been activated by HCl 10% can absorb copper (Cu2+) 96.083%; lead (Pb2+) 99.33% and zinc (Zn2+) 96.28%.

Abstract

The measurement uncertainty on crude palm oil (CPO) for the determination of free fatty acid using the neutralization titration method base AOCS Ca5a – 40, and the determination of the Fe2+ using the spectrophotometric method have been studied. The process of uncertainty estimation is based on specifying measurand, identifying uncertainty sources, quantifying uncertainty using type A (by the statistical analysis of series of observations) and type B (by the other statistical analysis of series observations) evaluation of uncertainty, then converting them to deviation standards, and the last step was to calculate and combine the uncertainty standard and uncertainty expanded. Spreadsheet software MS Exel 2007 based on Kragten spreadsheet uncertainty calculation method was used to simplify the calculation of the combined standard uncertainty. The combined standard uncertainty was multiplied with a coverage factor of 2, and the expanded uncertainty for analysis determination of free fatty acid using the neutralization titration method based on AOCS Ca5a–40 with a concentration of 0.1612 mol/L in the sample solution was ±0.0002 mol/L. Whereas the expanded uncertainty for the determination of Fe2+ using a spectrophotometric method with a concentration of 0.131 mg/L in the sample solution was ±0.083 mg/L and calculated using a coverage factor of 2.14.

Abstract

. It has been conducted the use of pineapple leaf (Pineapple cosmosus) as an adsorbent to reduce ion copper (Cu2+), iron (Fe3+), and zinc (Zn2+) contents in water. First pineapple leaf powder is cut to pieces, dried, finely ground, and activated with 10% HCl by soaking for 24 hours. Two grams of pineapple leaf powder, which was previously activated by 10% HCl added into each 100 mL ions of copper (Cu2+), iron (Fe3+), and zinc (Zn2+) standard solution 20 mg/L, stirred homogeneously, and left for 24 hours, then filtered. The concentration ions of copper (Cu2+), iron (Fe3+), and zinc (Zn2+) infiltrate were determined by using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The result of this research showed that pineapple leaf powder-activated 10% HCl can absorb 95.98% of copper (Cu2+), 79.16% of iron (Fe3+), and 88.71% of zinc (Zn2+).

Abstract

Calcium alginate-based edible film has been made by way of immersion of sodium alginate into calcium chloride (CaCl2) solution to form calcium alginate gel. In this case, using glycerol is a plasticizer with the variation of concentrations were 0,% 10%, 20%, and 30%. The characterization of edible films has been determined such as thickness, tensile strength, elongation, DTA, SEM, swelling, biodegradable and FT-IR analysis. Edible film characterization showed that with increasing glycerol plasticizer, thickness and tensile strength became greater, while elongation became lower. SEM analysis revealed that surface morphology became smoother and DTA analysis showed greater degradation temperature in the increase of glycerol. Characteristics of swelling showed that edible film without glycerol has to increase in weight with the addition of glycerol. The swelling value increased at the beginning of the measurement but increased after 10 interest. FT-IR analysis revealed that the stretching vibration form of the OH group changed from sharp to broad in the addition of glycerol. The biodegradable result showed an increase in the edible film weight and whole degradation after 21 days.

Abstract

The analysis of melamine on the milk-based diazotization reaction with eugenol was carried out. The presence of primary aromatic amine on melamine was reacted to sodium nitrite, while chloride acid formed diazonium salt, and then diazonium salt reacts with eugenol to form a colored azo compound. The absorbance was measured spectrophotometrically at a maximum wavelength of 470 nm. Analysis of melamine on the sample milk was determined by using a standard addition method. In this research, the optimization of concentration and incubation time was observed at the maximum formation of azo dyes. The optimization results were obtained at a concentration of eugenol of 9.10-3M, NaNO2 of 9.10-4 M, HCl of 0.25 M, and an incubation time of 5 minutes. The content of melamine in the milk sample was 2.513.10-5 M.

Abstract

A study on the effect of the addition of chitosan derived from shrimp shells to reduce the caffeine content of powder coffee has been conducted. Chitosan was used as an adsorbent to reduce the caffeine content in coffee powder with mass variations of as much as 0,2; 0,4; 0,6; 0,8; and 1 g in the extraction of coffee powder. The number of caffeine contents was analyzed by using spectrophotometry. The result obtained showed that the caffeine content without the addition of chitosan is 0.168 % while caffeine content after the addition of the mass variations of 0.2; 0.4; 06; 0.8, and 1 g chitosan, the caffeine content decreased to 0,083% ; 0,043 % ; 0.019 % ; 0,014 % and 0,006 %, respectively.

Abstract

Research about the absorption of activated zeolite and EDTA-modified zeolite has been successfully conducted to absorb Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions. Natural zeolite used from Sarulla, Pahae Jae, North Sumatera. This research aims to determine the effect of activated zeolite and EDTA-modified zeolite to absorb Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions in the mixture. In this research, natural zeolite was sifted with a 120 mesh sieve, then calcinated at 300ºC, and activated with HCl 15%. The natural zeolite was modified with EDTA 0,1 M that was applied as an absorbent on Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions which each of the initial concentrations was 50 mg/L with variations of contact time were 1, 2, and 3 hours and weight of adsorbent were 0,25 g/25 mL, 0,5 g/25 mL, and 1 g/25 mL and also the determination of metal concentration was used ICP-OES method. The results obtained showed that EDTA-modified zeolite and activated zeolite were able to decrease the concentration of metal, but the absorption ability of EDTA-modified zeolite was bigger than activated zeolite. The result of the absorption experiment of Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions showed that the best absorption has been carried out with a contact time was 3 hours and the weight of absorbent was 1 g/25 mL. The percentages of decrease in this research by adding activated zeolite as an absorbent on Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions were 95.99.77.92, and 81,62%, respectively. In addition, the percentages of decreasing by adding EDTA-modified zeolite as an absorbent Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+ ions were 98.79, 96.07, and 97,54%, respectively.
