Abstract

The iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles modified with polyethylene glycol (PEG) was synthesized by co-precipitation methods using ferric and ferrous ions as the precursors. Further, the antibacterial activity was performed against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The Fe3O4-PEG was characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDAX) and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). The particle size of Fe3O4-PEG calculated using XRD is 46.2 nm. The study confirmed that Fe3O4-PEG is superparamagnetic and has a saturation magnetization of 56.43 emu/g. The prepared Fe3O4-PEG gives the effect of both gram-positive and gram-negative pathogenic bacterial strains hence this material has potential utilization in the field of pharmaceutical and biomedical in the future.

Abstract

Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) labeled tetrofosmin kit has been widely used in hospitals including in Indonesia. Usually, tetrofosmin kits and Tc-99m pertechnetate are supplied separately, but recently there has been a new trend where Tc-99m tetrofosmin is supplied in the form of the ready-to-inject product. To prepare such a product it has to be proven that tetrofosmin can be labeled with high activity of Tc-99m and the resulted Tc-99m tetrofosmin, remains stable within shipping time until being used in hospitals. In this investigation, locally produced tetrofosmin kits were labeled with various radioactivity of Tc-99m ranging from 150 mCi to 400 mCi, their radiolabeling yields or radiochemical purity was analyzed using SepPak C18 column, and the radiochemical stability was assessed within 30 hours. The worst storage condition was also studied by analyzing its radiochemical purity after being stored at extreme temperatures for several hours. The results showed that tetrofosmin kit can be highly labeled with up to 415 mCi of Tc-99m, and stable up to 30 hours in room temperature, and there is a tendency that higher radioactivity leads to more decreasing in radiochemical purity. Stability study in extreme temperatures showed that the product can withstand its stability within 6 hours in 40°C, but it decreased rapidly to less than 70% within 1 hour when stored in 50°C. It concludes that the quality of Tc-99m tetrofosmin as an injectable radiopharmaceutical can be maintained during transportation by storing it at cool temperature.

Abstract

Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O3 has extensive application in electronic components as a thin layer. The densification layer is controlled by some factor such as precursor composition and heating techniques. Therefore, it is necessary to get simply precursor synthesis from zirconium(IV) nitrate stabilized polyol-acetate. In other hand, hydrolysis factor and the heating rate are affected as well as factor control. The PZT synthesis (55:45) was varied in Rw ratio as comparing water mole and the total mole of metal. The result of Rw = 0, 6, 9, and 12 are coated on silicon substrates and annealed with heating rates variate 1, 5, 10, and 30 °C/min for 650°C. The characterization and analysis were performed with FTIR and a microscope. Furthermore, the thermal dynamic behavior and crystal orientation are observed. The results show PZT synthesis from zirconium(IV) nitrate precurseor and PEG-acetate was stable and that can reproduce. The effect of rising of heating rate causes the dissipating PZT agglomeration, while the addition of water causes the cracking of crystals to become more massive.

Abstract

The current work aims to determine antibacterial activities of ethanol extracts of Eucheuma spinosum against Staphylococcus aureus. These were showed through inhibition zones formation, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values. The MIC was determined using dilution test tube method, and the MBC was calculated using streaking method. Qualitative test was applied to determine phytochemical compounds in ethanol extract of E. spinosum. Results showed that ethanol extracts of E. spinosum at concentrations of 1%; 2%; 5%, and 10% (v/v) resulted in inhibition zones of 1.98; 4.14; 7.42; and 10.27 mm, respectively. In addition, concentration of 10% (v/v) was the MIC, and 15% (v/v) was the MBC values of E. spinosum extracts against S. aureus. The phytochemical analysis showed that alkaloids and saponins were the main components detected. Alkaloids positive tests were observed by the formation of brown sediment with Wagner’s reagent, yellow sediment with Mayer’s reagent, and orange sediment with Dragendorff’s reagent. Saponins positive results were detected by the formation of stable foam when the extracts reacted with water and HCl. Overall, these results suggested that E. spinosum extracts have antibacterial properties against Gram-positive bacteria, i.e. S. aureus.
