Abstract

UVB generates the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) and decrease antioxidants enzymatic excessively. Both of these biological effects caused photo-aging. Excessive ROS production afforded overexpression of AP-1 as a major regulator of photoaging. This paper figured out the potential of Aloe vera extract as topical gel treatment on the UVB-induced skin photo-aging in twenty male wistar hairless rats (Rattus novergicus) divided into 2 groups. First group was induced by UVB and the second was induced by UVB and topical gel extract Aloe vera treatment. Each group was given treatment for 4 weeks. The expression of MDA and SOD were measured with immunohistochemistry. The result showed that the topical gel therapy decreased the MDA expression and increased SOD expression significantly (p < 0.01). The conclusion from this study was Aloe vera extract had potentially as an alternative topical treatment of photoaging.

Abstract

The purpose of this research to study effect of contact time on adsorption of Cr(VI) ion using Granules Alumino Silico Phosphate (GASP) and the effect of Cr (VI) concentration on adsorption capacity at GASP. The GASF synthesis process is carried out in several main stages: 1) activation of zeolite with addition of HCl, 2) zeolite phosphatation with addition of NH4H2PO4 ratio Si/P = 1/6 at 235ᴼC for 5 hours, 3) how make GASP with addition of zeolite phosphate (Alumino Silicone Phosphate) and chitosan gel with a syringe pump speed of 50 mL/min. GASP is characterized using XRF, FT-IR and SAA. The contact time effect is tested using 0.1 g of GASF in K2CrO4 100 mg/L with a contact time variation of 0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0 and 2.5 hours. The concentration effect on adsorption capacity is tested out using 0.1 g of GASP in K2CrO4 with concentration variation 25, 50, 75, 100 and 150 mg / L for 2 hours (optimum contact time). The adsorption capacity can be determined using the Langmuir equation. XRF characterization results showed a decrease in SiO2 levels of 18.10% and Al2O3 by 2.2% after phosphatation process. FTIR characterization results indicate the presence of O-H, N-H and C-H chitosan on absorption bands 1-3. The success of the phosphatation process was evidenced by the shift of wave numbers to the lower regions in the bands 7, 9 and 12 the absorption of tetrahedral silica and alumina shifted to bands 8, 10 and 13 tetrahedral phosphate uptake in accordance with Hooke's law. The result of the research showed that the optimum contact time occurred in the adsorption process for 2 hours. The concentration variation was directly proportional to the increase of the adsorbed Cr (VI) ion mass. The presence of phosphatation and chitosan addition process can increase the value of adsorption capacity by 48,077 mg / g.

Abstract

C-N-codoped TiO2 (CNTO) photocatalysts were successfully synthesized by using “green” method peroxo sol-gel. XRD results revealed the presence of anatase phase only for all samples. The result of Scanning Electron Microscope-Electron Dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDX) showed surface morphology of CNTO10 was spherical (44 nm) and homogeneous.  Diffuse Reflectance Spectra UV-Vis (DRS UV-Vis) result showed red shift in absorbance indicating successful modification of TiO2 by C and N. The result of photocatalytic activity in reducing Cr(VI) showed that  the Cr(VI) reduction  increase with the increase of irradiation time and photocatalyst’s mass.  The highest Cr(VI) reduction was 90.07% for CNTO10 sample. This is due to the synergistic effects of C and N dopants that improves  TiO2 photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation.

Abstract

Composite built by patchouli biochar and metal oxide, Cr2O3, is a potential material for remediation of contaminated wasterwater. Oxidation of biochar using acid or salt oxidators can improve its surface polar functional groups. This treatment may be able to increase impregnation of  metal cation (as salt) before calcination to form its oxide. In this research, 3 types of oxidators were used to oxidize the biochar before impregnation with purpose to study its influence toward physichochemistry and adsorption performance of the composite. Preparation of the composite included 3 steps, including preparation of biochar by pyrolisis of patchouli biomass using ZnCl2 activator at 450 oC, oxidation of the biochar using 3 different oxidators (H2SO4-HNO3, H3PO4-HNO3, H2O2–HNO3) at 60 oC,  impregnation of the oxidized biochar using CrCl3 followed by calcination process to form biochar–Cr2O3 composite at 600 oC. Characterization using X-ray diffraction indicated that the composite containes the Cr2O3 structure.  FTIR spectrophotometry characterization indicates the different content of C=O, C-O, and –OH on the composite surface. SEM images shows irregular micro ball shapes. EDX characterization indicates the different Cr content in the composite with same sequence with FTIR absorbances of  both C-O and –OH. Adsorption of paracetamol  indicates effect of Cr2O3 showing the same sequence of both.

Abstract

Diazinon is an organophosphate insecticide that can inhibit acetyl-cholinesterase competitively and increase the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS). ROS affect the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide Dismutase (SOD), and simultaneously ROS cause damage to the cells and duodenum tissue. The toxicity effect of diazinon was investigated by measuring the activity of SOD serum and histopathology of the duodenum in rats (Rattus norvegicus). The activities of SOD serum were measured by using spectrophotometry, and histopathology changes of the duodenum were observed by using HE staining. Rats were divided into 4 groups, negative control group (K-), P1, P2, and P3 groups which were administrated with diazinon for 8 weeks orally with a dose of 20 mg/kgBW, 40 mg/kgBW, and 60 mg/kgBW respectively. The results showed that administration of diazinon orally decreased SOD activity significantly and caused damage of duodenal villi such as hyperplasia of epithelial cells, epithelial erosion, fatty degeneration, hyperplasia of Liberkuhn gland cells, and hemorrhage in the lamina propria.

Abstract

The ultra-hydrophobic surface on Indonesia bamboo timber has been successfully prepared using OFP (2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoro-1-pentanol) as a modifier agent. The hydrothermal method has been used to fabricate anatase TiO2 film followed by OFP modification. Maximal water contact angle of 123ο has been obtained for the composition of 10 mL of OFP and 15 mL of 2-propanol (B-T-OFP10). XRD analysis showed the existence of pure anatase TiO2 film on bamboo timber, confirmed by EDS result. SEM image of a TiO2-coated and a typical ultra-hydrophobic bamboo timber revealed irregular aggregates of spherical TiO2 on the surface and compact ultra-hydrophobic  surface, respectively. The optimum sample (B-T-OFP10) showed excellent mechanical stability, self-cleaning property, and flame retardancy compared to pure bamboo timber.

Abstract

A new chelating agent, L-histidine-modified silica from rice husk (LHSRH), was prepared to increase the adsorption capacity and selectivity for Pb(II). LHSRH was synthesized by immobilizing L-histidine on silica from rice husk (RH) modified with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS). Silica from rice husk (SRH) was synthesized via precipitation process by adding hydrochloric acid solution to rice husk ash (RHA). The RHA was subsequently destructed with sodium hydroxide and heated to obtain sodium silicate (Na2SiO3). SRH was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and x-ray diffraction. The LHSRH was used further to adsorp Pb(II) metal ion. The pH range, amount of adsorbent, and adsorption time were optimized by response surface methodology. The optimum condition for the adsorption of Pb(II) was pH 5, an amount of adsorbent 0.1 g; and adsorption time 15 minutes. The adsorption capacity for Pb(II) ion was found to be 62.5 mg/g. The adsorption behavior of the matrix followed the Langmuir’s model.
