Abstract

Foot-and-mouth disease is a severe problem that must be faced in the livestock sector. This disease has a negative impact on various aspects, especially the economy. One way to develop herbal medicinal compounds is through local Indonesian wild plants, meniran (Phyllanthus urinaria). This research aims to determine the potential of the wild plant P. urinaria as an antiviral agent for FMD using an in silico approach using molecular docking. The compounds used as ligands are flavonoid compounds in P. urinaria, namely, routine, quercetin 7-methyl ether, quercetin 3-O-β-D-glucoside, quercetin, rhamnocitrin, astragalin, and kaempferol. This study used the control drug ribavirin as a comparison. The research stage began with the preparation of the RdRp protein from the FMD virus with Discovery Studio, ligand preparation with the Lipinski druglikeness test and minimization using OpenBabel, followed by docking and visualization. The research results found that the six flavonoid compounds in P. urinaria have potential as antiviral FMD by inhibiting RdRp, with the most potent compound being quercetin (-7.9 kcal/mol). Further research is needed, including in vitro and in vivo testing, to provide confidence in the potential of this wild plant as an antiviral for FMD.

Abstract

Puya sand is a well-known name by people in West Borneo, for remainder sand from gold mining conducted by local people, contains a mixture of minerals consist of elements, such as zirconium, silicon, iron, titanium and rare earth metals.  In order to recover and separate the minerals, an initial chemical process, i.e., alkali fusion reaction with sodium hydroxide has been conducted.  Puya sand that have been pre-treated, called magnetic sand (pasir tertarik magnet, PTM) was reacted with NaOH in various mass of PTM:NaOH 1:0.5, 1:1 and 1:2 as well as various temperature of 550 °C, 600 °C , 700 °C and 800 °C for each concentration variants. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that the main mineral found in PTM is zirconium silicate, ZrSiO4 which is crystalline, however it became an amorph material after it was reacted with NaOH at 550 °C. In a mass ration of PTM:NaOH of 1:2 at 550 °C, the reaction product calcinated at 800 °C appeared to form hematite, zirconia and silica shown by the XRD analysis. The analysis of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) demonstrated a different elemental composition in a different reaction condition. Zirconium silicate likely was decomposed to zirconate and silicate assigned by a high Zr/Si ratio, seen more obvious at the temperature of 700 °C, in which the highest Zr/Si ratio was found at the mass ratio of PTM:NaOH, 1:2. The fusion reaction between PTM and NaOH at 600 °C and PTM:NaOH of 1:2 resulted in a material with the highest concentration of iron element relative to other elements. Reaction undertaken at 700 °C and mass ratio of PTM:NaOH of 1:0.5 gave a product with the highest concentration of titanium elements or oxide. Depends on the mineral target aimed to decompose, the condition of alkali fusion reaction is an important aspect to take into account.

Abstract

Anting-anting plant (Acalypha indica L.) is a tropical plant with abundant secondary metabolite content, so its content can be used as traditional medicine. One of the secondary metabolites is influenced by the location of growth in different groups of compounds and levels. Information related to secondary metabolites can be used for quality control. This study aims to determine the effect of differences in growing locations on levels and secondary metabolites in the Tuban, Bojonegoro, and Ngawi regions. The method used is Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) followed by the Orange 3.32 Principal Component Analysis (PCA) chemometric method to obtain the grouping and concentration of each sample. The results of the TLC separation obtained 10 sample spots from the Tuban area, 10 sample spots from the Bojonegoro area, and 13 sample spots from the Ngawi area. PCA multivariate analysis explained that the total data variation was 91% (PC 1= 52.5%; PC 2= 38.5%). These results indicate that there are differences in the levels and groups of active compounds with different Area Under Curve (AUC) values for each sample of the earring leaf extract.
