Abstract

Greasy hair becomes a major problem to the health of the hair, one of which is dandruff. This is because greasy hair can facilitate the adhesion of dirt. Active charcoal of palm oil shell is activated charcoal having a pore diameter in the range of 1.76 to 1.84 nm and it has been proven that it has absorption ability 2 times higher than commercial activated carbon to absorb the oil in hair. Based on this, active charcoal derived from palm oil shells is processed into cosmetic products. One of the cosmetic products that can be used to overcome hair health problems is shampoo. Shampoo formulations with a variety of concentrations of activated charcoal with palm shell with concentrations of 4% (FI), 8% (FII), 12% (FIII). Then the evaluation of shampoo's physical properties such as organoleptic, pH, homogeneity, viscosity, foam height, specific gravity, foam stability test and cycling test were carried out. In vitro test the effectiveness of the excess oil absorber by using a turbidimetric device. The comparison control used was Pantene shampoo as a positive control and the basis of the shampoo as a negative control. Showed that the higher the concentration of activated charcoal from the coconut shell, the better the ability to absorb excess oil with the largest NTU FIII value of 11,800. The formula that has good physical properties and is stable in storage and has good oil absorption ability is FIII

Abstract

As one of the ten leading aquaculture commodities in Indonesia. The high demand for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) certainly requires a new alternative to fulfill feed ingredients in milkfish cultivation. Currently, the fish meal comes from imports and is quite expensive, despite being the main source of protein for farmed fish. Therefore, an alternative to the fish meal is needed to reduce production costs. One of them is maggot meal which has high availability and high protein. This study aims to examine maggot meal as fish meal substitutes effects on milkfish’s (Chanos chanos Forsskal) growth and survival. This study utilized the experimental method, using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD), and analyzed with ANOVA. The difference in treatment lies in the difference in the percentage of fish and maggot meal as the substitutes, divided into five treatments of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. The parameters being observed include absolute weight gain, survival rate, and specific weight growth rate. The results illustrate highest average absolute weight growth was recorded in 0% maggot meal substitution, and the highest daily specific weight growth rate was in the treatment of substitution with 0% maggot meal. The greatest survival rate, there is a substitution of 25% maggot meal. ANOVA results illustrated no significant effect (P<0.05) on the growth of total weight, the growth rate of specific weight, and the milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) survival rate from the maggot meal substitutes

Abstract

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is derived from fresh coconut fruit and offers numerous health benefits, such as preventing heart diseases, improving digestion, reducing fat accumulation, and more. VCO contains medium-chain fatty acids that are easily digested and metabolized by the body, preventing fat buildup. Additionally, it is rich in antioxidants like tocopherols and beta-carotene, which help prevent premature aging and maintain vitality. The phenolic content in VCO can be influenced by the processing method and the age of the coconuts used. Therefore, this research examined the impact of processing methods on the quality of phenolic content as a product of the pharmaceutical industry. The largest group of phenolic compounds includes tocopherols, sterols, and flavonoids. Phenolic compounds in coconuts are primarily located in the coconut fruit’s epidermis. VCO produced from coconuts with the epidermis or coconut fruit’s outermost layer contains a higher concentration of phenolic compounds compared to VCO produced from coconuts without the epidermis. The research involved defining and refining the problem, formulating hypotheses or tentative answers, drawing conclusions, and conducting meticulous testing of all conclusions to determine their alignment with the hypotheses. In this study, the researchers compared the quality and phenolic compound content of virgin coconut oil (VCO) by sampling from several small and medium enterprises in various regions, specifically in the Island of Sulawesi. The findings revealed that each graph represents the percentage of five samples, depicting various contents, such as water content, free fatty acids, peroxide value, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant activity

Abstract

Edible films represent biodegradable food packaging. Potential material used as an edible film is biocellulose nata de coco, but flour made from purple yams needs to be added to increase the solubility of composites in water. The purpose of this research was to study the effects of purple yam flour and glycerol concentrations on moisture, ash content, thickness, barrier properties (WVTR), and mechanical properties biocellulose based edible film. Edible films made with the proportion of slurry biocellulose and purple yam flour were 100: 0; 98: 2; 96: 4% and glycerol were added 0, 1, and 2% and aquades was added to the total volume of 200 ml. The suspension is put in a mould and dried in a 40 ° C oven for 24 hours. Increased concentrations of purple yam flour at biocomposite and glycerol reduce tensile strength and modulus of elasticity, increase the thickness of the edible film. Interaction between biocellulose-purple yam flour and glycerol at high concentrations reduced mechanical strength as a result of network integrity disruption. Interaction between biocellulose-purple yam flour and glycerol reduced moisture content but increased ash content. Glycerol concentrations that were too low and high cause antiplastizicer properties that affected the elongation at break and WVTR edible film. This study demonstrated that proportion of biocellulose-purple yam flour 98:2% and glycerol 1% has good potential for producing the edible films
