Abstract

Tests on the inhibition extract of n-hexane fraction, extract of chloroform fraction and extract of ethyl acetate fraction of frangipani flower (Plumeria alba) on Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi has been done. This study aims to determine the activity of frangipani flower extract on the growth of S. aureus and S. typhi bacteria. Frangipani flowers was macerated using methanol solvents. The obtained methanol extract was partitioned with n-hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate solvents, respectively. The three extracts were tested for antibacterial activity at a concentration of 10% using the diffusion well method. The test results showed that the n-hexane, chloroform and ethyl acetate fractions showed an inhibition zone of 9.77 mm, 20.89 mm and 19.44 against S. aureus whereas S. typhi showed an inhibition zone of 15.86 mm, 27.69 mm and 21.74 mm. Keywords: Antibacterial, extract of frangipani flower, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi.

Abstract

Research has been carried out on the nutritional content of dried noodles substituted with coconut pulp. This study aims to determine the highest total protein content, highest crude fiber content and the highest water content and organoleptic quality of dried noodles substituted with coconut pulp. Dry noodles are made from wheat flour and coconut pulp as the main ingredients. The material ratio is varied to 90:10; 80:20; 70:30 and without the addition of coconut pulp flour. Dry noodles without the addition of coconut pulp flour produced the highest total protein content of 18.57%(b/b) and at the ratio of 70:30 the highest crude fiber was 17.55% (w/w) and the highest water content was 2.63% (w/w). Based on the quality of organoleptic dry noodles the most preferred is at the ratio of 90:10. Keywords: Dry noodles, coconut pulp flour, total protein content, crude fiber content, water content, organoleptic quality

Abstract

Pb metal adsorption studies on land water spinach (Ipomoem reptans poir) have been carried out. The method of analysis was carried out using a completely randomized design with two independent variables, i.e amount of Pb metal concentration adsorb on the roots of land spinach and the lifetime of the land spinach roots. The results show that the amount of Pb metal adsorp on the land spinach roots with variations in the age of 2-5 consecutive weeks was 0,023 µg/g; 0,03 µg/g; 0,084 µg/g; 0,099 µg/g, respectively. The results of both statistical tests, F test and LSD test, show that there was a significant difference in the concentration of Pb in each age of harvest, which in the fifth week showed the highest Pb level. BCF test results show that Pb metal adsorption takes piace with a phytoextraction mechanism. Keywords: Absorption, Lead Metal, Land Weter Spinach, Pb Levels, Length Of Planting Time

Abstract

A study of in situ transesterification of Moringa (Moringa oleifera) seeds with polymer based on eugenol catalyst support have been carried out. The aim of the study is to determine the concentration of eugenol-based polymer support catalyst which was used to produce fatty acid methyl esters with the highest yield, and best time and to determine the composition of fatty acid methyl esters found in transesterification in situ. The results showed that the catalyst concentration of 1% with a reflux time of 150 minutes resulted in a yield of 12.04% methyl ester. The results of analysis of methyl esters using GC-MS contain methyl stearate and methyl-9,12-octadecanoate compounds. The characteristics of methyl ester are water content of 1.23%, acid number of 11.60 mgKOH/gram, saponification number of 0 mg NaOH/gram, and pour point of 16˚C. Keywords: Moringa seed, eugenol as a catalyst support H2SO4, transesterification

Abstract

Java wood plants (Lannea coromandelica) is a traditional medicinal plant which is still often used by people to treat internal and external wounds. The study aims to determine the effect of solvent polarity in Javanese stem bark extract on Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae, and to identify the compound groups which had an antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae with KLT-Bioautography analysis. The results show that the n-hexane extract of Javanese bark is not showing an antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae, whereas the ethyl acetate extract and methanol of Javanese bark show an antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae. The results of the TLC-Bioautography test show negative results for Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella dysenteriae. Keywords: Lannea coromandelica, antibacterial, Staphylococcus aureus, Shigella dysentriae, KLT-Bioautografi

Abstract

Research on the potential of Ashoka (Ixora javanica) flower as a natural food and beverage coloring agent in terms of pH stability during the storage period. This study aims to determine the stability of Asoka flower extract on the effect of pH during the storage period. The time used was 10 days and the variation of pH of 2,3,4,5 and 6, respectively. The results show that Asoka flower extract was stable at pH 2 after a 10-day storage period with degradation presentation of 36.21%, while Ashoka flower extract dyes were unstable at pH 6 after a 10-day storage period with degradation percentage is 78.02%. This proves that the different acidic atmosphere influences the stability of Ashoka flower extract. Keywords : Dyes, stability of Ashoka flowers, degradation
