Abstract

Tropical diseases are infectious diseases that commonly occur in tropical climates. Infectious diseases are caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites, and are transmitted by several vectors. There are 8 neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) that have spread in Indonesia. Therefore, massive efforts are needed to overcome this disease. Active plant substances have long been popular in treating various diseases. Cocok Bubu (Elatostema rostratum (Blume) Hassk) is an endemic plant of Indonesia. Ethnobotanical studies of this plant are used to treat fever and diarrhea. But, there are no pharmacological studies on previous research because this species belongs to a limited distribution plant. However, Elatostema has a secondary metabolite with various pharmacological activities. This study aims to determine the activity of antibacterial and biolarvicides from Cocok bubu leaf extract. The extraction using the maceration method with acetone, phytochemicals screening, toxicity test using BSLT, antibacterial test with disc diffusion to Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutant, and Streptococcus sanguinis, and biolarvicide activity against Aedes aegypti. Based on the results, Cocok bubu leaf extract contains flavonoids, alkaloids, saponin, tannin, terpenoids, and steroids with a toxicity of 758.45 ppm. From antibacterial activity results, Cocok bubu exctract had the best inhibition zone against Staphylococcus aureus (10 – 18 mm). According to the biolarvicide test, it is effective as a biolarvicide to Aedes aegypti with LC50 51.099 ppm and LT50 of 5 h 43 min. This study shows that Cocok bubu was more effective for treating and preventing NTDs in Indonesia, especially dengue and chikungunya fever in the future.

Abstract

Floating Treatment Wetland (FTW) is a form of wetland that functions to remove waste such as Nitrogen (N element) and Phosphorus (Phosphorous/P element) waste by utilizing plant roots as pollutant absorbers. This study aims to examine the reaction rate of phosphate removal from synthetic P waste through FTW. The water plants used were water jasmine (Echinodorus palifolius) and banana (Helliconia psittaforum). Four FTW ponds are filled with synthetic P waste. The first pond is a control pond, while the second pond is filled with FTW without plants, and the third and fourth ponds are filled with each of the aquatic plants mentioned above. The study was conducted from July to mid-August 2019. Water samples were taken in four pools five times in the first week, three times in the second week and twice in the third to sixth weeks. The parameters measured are water temperature, pH, Oxidative Reductive Potential (ORP) and phosphate. The data analysis carried out was calculating the phosphate reaction rate for each measured sample. The rate of phosphate decreases in proportion to the decrease in phosphate concentration in the test pond. Aquatic plants have been proven to remove phosphate from synthetic waste by using it as a nutrient for plant growth.

Abstract

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal with the active property of reacting with other components so that cadmium residues can quickly enter the food chain and cause cardiovascular, kidney, and cancer diseases. The purpose was to synthesize the magnetite mercaptosilicate ion imprinted polymer adsorbent material by forming Ion-Imprinted Polymer as a template, to analyze the characterization results using XRD and SEM-EDS, and to determine the adsorption test results for Cd metal ions. The results of the characterization of XRD show that there is a broad peak at a diffraction angle of 2θ= 20-220 with an amorphous structure, which is silica, and there is a high peak at a diffraction angle of 2θ= 35.55140 which indicates magnetite. The results of SEM analysis with magnifications of 500x, 1000x, and 5000x showed that the surface morphology of the particles was not uniform. For the EDS results, it can be seen that the components of the magnetite mercaptosilicate ion imprinted polymer material are elements C, O, Si, S, and Fe, with a mass percentage of 25.0%; 41.2%; 29.9%; 3.28% and 0.8%. The results of the adsorption test for the Magnetite-IIP-Mercaptosilika Material were able to adsorb Cd ions with the highest adsorption capacity of 10.536 mg/g at a concentration of 100 mg/L. Then the selectivity coefficient value of the Ion Cd metal ion is 2.32 greater than 1, indicating that the selectivity of the magnetite mercaptosilicate ion imprinted polymer material is much higher for Ion Cd metal ions than for Cu and Cr ions with a selectivity coefficient of 0.1 and 0.26.

Abstract

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) with magnesium (Mg) doping for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) photoanode application has been synthesized. DSSC components used in this study were photosensitizer (bixin), electrolyte (), cathode (platinum), and photoanode (Mg-TiO2). This research aims to determine the characteristics of Mg-doped TiO2 photoanode with variations in dopant concentration based on the results of XRD and DR/UV-Vis analysis, as well as to determine the maximum efficiency conversion energy of DSSC using Mg-doped TiO2 and undoped TiO2 as photoanodes. The synthesis of TiO2 and Mg-TiO2 was carried out using the hydrothermal method with variations in the concentration of Mg dopant of 0, 0.5, 1, and 2% based on the molar ratio. The presenceof 2% of Mg in anatase TiO2 paste decreased the TiO2 band gap from 3.15 to 2.60 eV. Analysis results show that adding Mg dopant decreased the crystal size. Mg dopants on TiO2 could also form new energy levels, which reduced the band gap energy of TiO2. In addition, the increased concentration of Mg dopants also shifted the absorption capacity of TiO2 from the ultra-violet (UV) wavelengths region to the visible light area. The maximum energy conversion efficiency of the DSSCs with Mg-doped TiO2 photoanode of 0.5, 1, and 2% are 0.045; 0.070, and 0.172%, respectively, where these three efficiency values are higher than undoped TiO2 (0.017%). The results proved that the presence of Mg dopants on the TiO2 photoanode can increase the efficiency of DSSC.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the possible utilization of silica (SiO2) and silicon (Si) derived from rice husks as anode materials in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). SiO2 and Si have impressive theoretical capacities of 1965 and 4200 mAh/g, respectively. However, their direct use as LIBs anodes faces challenges such as substantial volume changes during battery charging and discharging, as well as low electrical conductivity. Consequently, a common approach is to create nanostructures of SiO2 and Si, such as nanoparticles, nanowires, and nanotubes, and combine them with conductive matrices like carbon-based materials. In this study, the Si/SiO2/C composite was synthesized from rice husks, taking into account the mass ratio of Si/SiO2 to C. The process involved first separating SiO2 and C from rice husks and then synthesizing the composite using the ball mill method and activated molten salt aluminothermic reduction (AlCl3/NaCl). X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the successful synthesis of the composite, as indicated by characteristic peaks of the constituent compounds. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) imaging showed non-uniform morphology with varying particle sizes. Tests results demonstrated that the Si/SiO2/C composite with a 3:1 ratio exhibited the most promising performance as a LIB anode, maintaining a high capacity of 280.48 mAh/g with a Coulombic Efficiency (CE) of 99% after 50 testing cycles. These findings suggest that silica and silicon compounds derived from rice husks hold great potential as efficient and durable anode materials for LIBs applications.

Abstract

Lansium plants produce not only terpenoids as the main constituent but also contain phenolics on the basis of phytochemical analysis. Unfortunately, there are still limited information about phenolic structures from this plants. This study was conducted to identify one of phenolic structures from chloroform fraction of Lansium domesticum root. The chloroform fraction was fractionated and purified by chromatographic techniques such as vacuum liquid chromatography (VLC) and column chromatography (CC) to obtain a coumarin. Additionally, the coumarin structure was characterized by 1H-NMR. The isolated coumarin showed a positive result for the phenolic test with FeCl3 5%. The 1H-NMR spectrum of isolated coumarin revealed chemical shifts at δH 7,60 (1H, d, J = 9,5 Hz), 6,92 (1H, s), 6,84 (1H, s), 6,27 (1H, d, J = 9,5 Hz), 6,14 (1H, s), and 3,95 (3H, s). Based on those results and comparison with literature data, it can be concluded that the isolated coumarin is iso-scopoletin (1)

Abstract

Excessive sun exposure to the skin can cause redness (erythema) and darkening of the skin (pigmentation). This effect can be prevented by using sunscreen. Kedondong leaves (Spondias dulcis Sol. Ex G. Forst) can act as a natural sunscreen because they contain secondary metabolite compounds with a conjugated double bond structure (chromophore), including phenolic and flavonoid compounds. The presence of conjugated double bonds in phenolic and flavonoid compounds is known to be able to absorb UV radiation thereby reducing its intensity on the skin. This study aims to determine the sunscreen activity of kedondong leaves based on the Sun Protection Factor (SPF), , the percentage of erythema transmission value (%Te), and the percentage of pigmentation transmission value (%Tp) and determine the secondary metabolite groups in kedondong leaf extracts and fractions. The research stages carried out were extraction of kedondong leaves by maceration, dechlorophyllation, followed by fractionation using n-hexane and dichloromethane, to obtain methanol extract, n-hexane fraction, dichloromethane fraction and methanol fraction. Then phytochemical tests were carried out on the extracts and fractions. Phytochemical tests showed that the secondary metabolite compounds in the methanol extract of kedondong leaves were alkaloids, phenolics, steroids and saponins. Furthermore, in the n-hexane fraction are steroids, the dichloromethane fraction is phenolic compounds, and the methanol fraction is alkaloid, phenolic and saponin compounds. Using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 200-400 nm, the sunscreen activity test showed that the dichloromethane fraction at a concentration of 120 mg/L was included in the extra protection category with an SPF value of 7,86±0,23; fast tanning with a %Te value of 15,99±0,83 and sunblock with a %Tp value of 32,72±1,09.

Abstract

The pyrazole scaffold modification in various chemical structures on several studies has shown various biopharmacological activities. This study aims to predict the potential inhibition of pyrazole analogs derived benzene-sulfonylurea (4A, 4B, 4E, 5A, 5C, 5D) against the α-glucosidase (3A4A) and aldose reductase (3RX2) enzymes based on a molecular docking approach using Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) 2020.0102 software and evaluate pharmacokinetic profile (ADMET). In this study, the six test compounds were obtained from previous studies that have been proven antihyperglycemic. The results showed that all the 3,5-disubstituted benzene-sulfonylurea derivative pyrazole analogs are predicted to have low inhibitory activity against the α-glucosidase enzyme. Further, all compounds showed good aldose reductase inhibitor activity and had lower binding free energy values ​​than tolrestat as the positive control (-6.82 kcal/mol). Compound 5C has the best potential inhibitory activity against the aldose reductase enzyme compared to the other test compounds, because it has the lowest binding free energy value (-8.76 kcal/mol) and interacts with important residues on the receptor forming four hydrogen bonds, namely the carbonyl group of SO2 with residues Trp111 and His110, and the carbonyl group of the amide with residues His110 and Tyr48, as well as 3 hydrophobic bonds, namely a pyrazole ring with residues Leu300, Trp219 and a furan ring with Phe122. ADMET properties of the compounds are also predicted. This information provides an opportunity for a 5C compound as an aldose reductase inhibitor agent to develop drug candidates with better and safer activities.

Abstract

Extremophiles are known to produce antibiotics. This study aimed to isolate and purify polypeptide antibiotics from Pria Laot Sabang (PLS) 76, a bacterium isolated from an undersea fumarole. The antibiotic production was done by cultivating PLS 76 in a 2.5% TSB liquid medium and incubated at 70°C, 150 rpm for 112 hours. Ninhydrin assay on the crude supernatant after centrifugation indicated that the PLS 76 produced a polypeptide antibiotic. The supernatant was partitioned using methanol. The antibiotic activity was tested using the Kirby-Bauer method, and the inhibition zone was about 12 mm against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. The methanol fraction was purified further by Preparative Thin Layer Chromatography and produced several fractions. Fractions with the same Rf were pooled and subjected to the ninhydrin assay. Fraction A, which gave a positive result after the ninhydrin assay, showed an inhibition zone of only 7 mm against E. coli and S. aureus. The Quadrupole Time-of-Flight (QTOF) Mass Spectrometry data indicated that the antibiotic's structure was similar to Polymyxin B2, an antibiotic of a polypeptide group.

Abstract

A study on graphene defects for hydrogen storage has been successfully conducted using the Density Functional Tight Binding (DFTB) approach. The research aimed to modify solid materials for hydrogen storage. A 4 × 4 × 1 unit cell was used as the basis, while the supercell used for sampling was enlarged to 40 × 40 × 1. The analyzed data included changes in Density of States (DOS), Fermi level shifts, electronic band structures, formation energy, adsorption energy, and isosurfaces for each graphene orientation. It has been observed that modifying the surface structure of graphene can alter the electronic properties of graphene. This is indicated by shifts in DOS intensity, characterized by increased electronic intensity around the Fermi level total density charge different. The interaction energy between graphene and hydrogen gas has been determined to be -0.0155 eV for H-epoxy graphene, -0.4941 eV for H-monovacancy graphene, and -0.0424 eV for HN-monovacancy graphene. The presence of the vacancy increase the potential to adsorp hydrogen.
