Abstract

Lampung Province has 3 areas that produce coffee: West Lampung, Tanggamus, and Waykanan, which can produce 51,484 tons of coffee annually. The high demand for coffee and limited harvest are some factors that cause the addition of adulterants to coffee products such as corn, soybeans, rye, coffee beans, and rice. This study aims to detect rice adulterants in Lampung robusta coffee using the FTIR spectrophotometric method combined with chemometric analysis using the PCA (Principal Component Analysis) method. FTIR spectrophotometric method combined with chemometric analysis using PCA (Principal Component Analysis) method. The PCA method was validated using the cross-validation method. Samples were taken from 3 Lampung coffees on the market. The extraction process was carried out on Lampung coffee and Lampung rice from 3 regions using 96% ethanol. After concentrating, the coffee and rice extracts were measured using FTIR and read in the 4000-650 cm-1 wave number range. Different wave number curves were obtained between coffee and rice. A pre-processing chemometric analysis was performed, which resulted in the classification of Robusta coffee and rice using PC1 and PC2 (50% and 24%). The results of PCA analysis showed that PC1 and PC2 in the three Lampung coffee samples, samples A and C, did not contain adulterants, while sample B was suspected of containing white rice.  Keywords: Alduteran, FTIR, Chemometrics, PCA, Lampung Robusta Coffee.

Abstract

Chalcones and pyrazolines are heterocyclic compounds with promising biological and pharmaceutical activities. Chalcone and pyrazoline can be found in different sources, such as natural and synthetic compounds. This study aimed to explore the synthesis of chalcone and pyrazoline derivatives with acetophenone and veratraldehyde as precursors. Chalcone was successfully synthesized through the Claissen-Schmidt reaction between acetophenone and veratraldehyde at room temperature 25-30 ºC and mediated by KOH as a base catalyst for 20 hours. The corresponding substituted pyrazoline derivative was also successfully synthesized through a cyclocondensation reaction between the synthesized chalcone and phenylhydrazine as starting materials under reflux conditions at temperatures of 75-80 ºC for 4 hours. The Chalcone A derivative compound obtained was (E)-3-(3,4-dimethoxy phenyl)-1-phenyl prop-2-en-1-one (Chalcone A). The Pyrazoline A derivative compound was obtained as pyrazole compound 5-(3,4-dimethoxy phenyl)-1,3-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazole (pyrazoline A). Chalcone A and Pyrazoline A obtained as yellowish and brownish-orange powders in 14.89 % and 66.57 % yields, respectively. The chastities of Chalcone A and Pyrazoline A was 98.55 % and 88.54 %, respectively. A qualitative identification for both synthesized compounds was performed using normal-phase thin-layer chromatography which revealed the Rf value for Chalcone A and Pyrazoline A was 0.43 (in mobile phase ethyl acetate:n-hexane 3:1 v/v) and 0.55 (in mobile phase DCM:n-hexane 3:1 v/v), respectively. Moreover, the elucidation structure of synthesized compounds using FTIR and GC-MS instruments revealed the structure of synthesized Chalcone A and Pyrazoline A agrees with the theoretical structure of Chalcone A and Pyrazoline A. Keywords: Synthesis, Chalcone, Pyrazoline, Acetophenone, Veratraldehyde

Abstract

The spread of COVID-19 has continued to grow rapidly worldwide. This disease is characterized by the presence of severe respiratory syndrome disorders in humans. The ACE2 receptor is the gateway for the COVID-19 virus to target cells, where it is expressed in airway epithelial and vascular endothelial cells. Breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) contains active flavonoids. Flavonoid derivatives found in breadfruit include artonin-E, cycloaltilisin-7, cycloaltilisin, isocyclomorusin, cyclomorusin, cyclomulberrin, isocyclomulberrin, cyclocommunal, morusin, quercetin and artocarpin. This study aimed to determine the flavonoid derivative of breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis), which has the most effective potential against the ACE2 receptor, as a candidate inhibitor of the COVID-19 virus in silico. The results showed that of the eleven flavonoid derivatives of breadfruit (Artocarpus altilis) tested, 3 compounds gave the lowest binding affinity value, namely cycloaltilisin -8.79 kcal/mol, cyclomulberrin -8.95 kcal/mol, and artocarpin -9.30. kcal/mol compared to Chloroquine -7.67 kcal/mol and Hydroxychloroquine -7.22 kcal/mol. The predicted results of the Lipinski Rule of Five showed that the 3 compounds and the comparison drug met the Ro5 rule. The compounds cycloaltilisin, cyclomulberin, and artocarpine have antiviral activity, as indicated by the Pa value in the range of 0.5<Pa<0.7. Cycloaltilisin, cyclomulberin and artocarpine are the most effective compounds to be developed as candidates for COVID-19 inhibitors. Keywords: Breadfruit, ACE-2, Covid-19, In Silico

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus poses a major threat to human health, as evidenced by the increasing prevalence of diabetes, and the number of cases of diabetes in Indonesia is anticipated to rise from 10.7 million in 2019 to 13.7 million by 2030.The lack of public knowledge and compliance with treatment has caused the incidence of the disease to increase every year. This Review aimed to determine the relationship between knowledge of medication compliance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The primary data methods obtained were national and international journals using search engines such as Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct, as well as other search engines with the Narrative Review pattern.  The search result of the publications obtained 769 articles; 40 articles screened full text based on the results of the screening that received 18 articles that met the inclusion criteria and were used as a review. The analysis of data writing in this article is mostly based on cross-sectional study approaches. Surveys were conducted within a three-month period. The results showed that knowledge had a significant relationship with drug consistency (p-value value = 0, 000 < 0.05). Knowledge is very much related to the medication compliance of each individual; the higher a person's knowledge, the better the attitude of compliance with diabetes drug consumption. Keywords: Compliance, Knowledge, Type 2 Diabetes, Narrative Review.
