Cigarette smoke is heterogeneous aerosol which resulted from imperfect burn of tobacco leaf that contain gas and particle component which very potential as free radical. The amount of radical content in this cigarette smoke can be reduced by bioactive compounds which functions as radical scavenger such as what is contained in the java plum (Syzygium cumini) plant and can be identified through its magnetic character. The aim of this research was to assess and analyze magnetic character from cigarette smoke before (empty cigarette smoke) and after the addition of java plum squeeze extract to the filter (cigarette smoke of java plum) by using instrument set of ESR. This research showed that with the addition of java plum squeeze extract, it could alter magnetic character of cigarette smoke becomes more paramagnetic which seen from the difference of energy level (∆E) under the influence ofan external magnetic field, Besides the changes in the form of splitting of energy in cigarette smoke Duwet marked by changes in the value of energy groundstate more significant to the external magnetic field that is interpreted that the smoke Duwet have ferromagnetic properties more than an empty cigarette smoke.

Glyphosate herbicide widely used by farmers in Indonesia. As a result of exposure to herbicides, the production of free radicals or ROS exceeds the body's defense system called oxidative stress. Therefore, the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the body decline and thus can cause tissue damage and certain organ dysfunction. ROS can be suppressed by administration of antioxidants. One source of the antioxidant is taurine. Taurine has a protective effect against oxidation and free radical capture in a variety of cells and tissues against toxic oxidant component. This study aims to determine the effect of taurine in the liver of mice induced herbicide glyphosate on the activity of the enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehida (MDA), changes in morphology and structure of liver histology. The research used completely randomized design (CRD). Mice were divided into three treatment groups such as, control group (K0), a group of glyphosate (K1) at a dose of 25 mg /kgBW/day orally for 25 days, and a group of taurine+glyphosate (K2) at a dose of taurine 7800 mg/kgBW/day + glyphosate dose 25 mg/kgBW/day orally for 25 days. Each treatment consisted of 8 mice as replication. Results of analysis with one ways ANOVA (P<0.05) followed by the Tukey test showed taurine dose of 7800 mg/kgBW/day can reduce liver cells of male mice that were treated by the herbicide glyphosate but it not be able to increase the levels of SOD and to decrease MDA levels.

Magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4 was synthesized in this research by using ex-situ copresipitation method followed by surface modification with crosslinked chitosan along with trypolyphospate (TPP) and sulfate crosslinking agents. The Fe3O4 materials were formed from FeCl2.H2O and FeCl3.6H2O with 1:2 ratio under alkaline condition. Surface modification processes were conducted by mixing chitosan solution with purified Fe3O4 yielding a ferrogel solution as a product. Here, the crosslinker agents, TPP and sulfate, were added to the mixture to make a crosslinking compounds. In these processes, the chitosan-Fe3O4 crystallite size were affected by composition ratio and crosslinking time which will be proven by using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and modified Debye-Scherrer methods. The results showed that, on highest ratios between chitosan and Fe3O4 as well as TPP/sulfate crosslinker, gave the smallest size of crystallite of chitosan-Fe3O4. Furthermore, the more time of crosslinking process caused crystallite size of chitosan-Fe3O4 became much smaller.

Linac operated at energies above 8 MV can result in photoneutron emissions arising from the interaction between high-energy photons striking the constituent materials such as collimator, the target and the scattering foil. This secondary radiation may increase the risk of secondary cancers and additional radiation dose received in addition to dose of photons. This study estimates the dose out of the field around cervix cancer in the form of an effective dose of neutron and photon. Measurements were carried out using termoluminescence (TLD) detector pairs, TLD 600 and TLD TLD 700. Neutron dose distribution was determined by placing the TLD pairs at 8 points scattered in the phantom.. Linac irradiations at a dose of 2 Gy were conducted three times that produced effective dose neutron range from 0.3 mSv to 4.8 mSv. While the effective dose photon as read by the TLDs range from 42.9 to 920.1 mSv.The effective dose of neutron and photon received were less for points located further away from the point of isocentre.

Chitosan-Fe3O4 nanoparticles have been synthesized in a one pot reaction by combine TPP: citrate as crosslinker. The method was in-situ co-precipitation of iron salts in the presence of chitosan and crosslinker. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of preparation process towards chitosan-Fe3O4 nanoparticles characteristics which was prepared on several preparation condition: chitosan:Fe(II):Fe(III) ratio, TPP:citrate ratio, and crosslinking time. The crystallite sizes of the Fe3O4 and chitosan- Fe3O4 nanoparticles was obtained from modified Debye Scherrer equation using data from XRD analysis. The crystallite size of the bare-Fe3O4 and chitosan-Fe3O4 nanoparticles were found to be about 6.22 and 9.49 nm, respectively. XRD analysis results shown that beside Fe3O4 phases there was γ-Fe2O3 phase due to the oxidation of Fe3O4.The crystallite sizes and the percentage of Fe3O4 decreases with increasing number of chitosan coating the Fe3O4 and the length of crosslinking time

In term of nuclear medical, Radiopharmaceuticals with Tc - 99m radioisotope for kidney examination inserted into the body will emit gamma radiation that can be detected by a gamma camera. Gamma camera will display the distribution of radioisotopes in the patient's body and measure examined organ function in the form of image. A committee in nuclear medical developed Medical Internal Radiation Dosimetry (MIRD) method, the standard method on the way calculating activities in organ by image quantification. Differences in the activity of Tc-99m were measured by a dose calibrator with detected activity of organs to determine the accuracy of activity measurement. These results indicated that detected activity in the organ, calculated by the method MIRD, were smaller than the calibrator measurement result. The differences percentage in the activity of a single organ (counting each organ), involving all organs (enumeration simultaneously including kidney, bladder, heart and liver), has value <20% that indicate the reliability of MIRD method to use in internal dosimetry.
