Abstract

Nickel ferrite (NiFe2O4) is one of the spinel ferrite nanoparticles that is useful for scientific and technological, like biomedicine. This paper discusses the synthesis of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles by various methods. This paper aims to find out the most efficient method for the synthesis of NiFe2O4 nanoparticles which are used as hyperthermia agents in biomedicine. The method used is a literature study of an article with publications from 1956-2018 by discussing several methods of NiFe2O4 syntheses, such as sol-gel, hydrothermal, co-precipitation, and combustion. From these methods, it was found that co-precipitation is the most efficient method among the other methods because it produces a relatively small NiFe2O4 nanoparticle size, which is 28 nm, causing these small particles to tend to be superparamagnetic and is good to be used as hyperthermia agent in biomedicine. This study is expected to be used as a reference to determine the method for synthesizing NiFe2O4 nanoparticles.

Abstract

Water is the most important substance for the life of living things. The development of various industries causes water pollution by metal ions. Adsorption is a way to remove metal ions in water. The adsorbents commonly used for adsorption are chitosan and activated carbon. Chitosan has weaknesses such as being easily soluble in acid, low selectivity, and less strong mechanical strength. One way to improve the properties of chitosan is to modify it with activated carbon. In this study, a literature review was conducted on the manufacture of chitosan/activated carbon composite beads for Pb(II) and Cu(II) ions adsorbents. Reference sources articles obtained from the Google Scholar database were selected using exclusion and inclusion criteria. The results obtained from the literature review show that chitosan/activated carbon can be made by dissolving chitosan in a CH3COOH solution, adding with activated carbon to form a mixture and the mixture is formed into beads by dripping it into a NaOH solution. The adsorption process of chitosan/activated carbon is influenced by pH, contact time, and solution concentration. The reaction mechanism that occurs is thought to be through electrostatic bonds, the formation of complex compounds, and the pores of the adsorbent. Chitosan/activated carbon adsorbent is an adsorbent that can be regenerated and reused for adsorption 5 times.

Abstract

The encapsulation process of black rice yeast extract with mannitol was able to minimize the occurrence of protein aggregation and degradation processes due to encapsulated preparations that had low bioavailability. This study aims to determine the effect of mannitol concentration on the stability of encapsulated black rice yeast extract using sonication techniques and a poloxamer support matrix. The addition of mannitol used concentration variations (0 ppm, 25 ppm, 50 ppm, 75 ppm dan 100 ppm). The stability of the encapsulated results was measured using a TDS (Total Dissolve Solid) meter to see the level of turbidity and characterized using infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to see the shift in the spectra of the functional groups. The results showed that the encapsulation of formula 3 has the best stability because it has a small TDS value for a period of 7 with a turbidity of 16 ppm and the resulting color display looks clearer. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the addition of mannitol concentration affected the turbidity value without chemical interactions that damaged the active compounds in the encapsulation.

Abstract

Silver nanoparticles (AgNp) have been widely developed, one of which is an antibacterial agent. The ability of AgNp to inhibit bacteria is unquestionable. These properties and characteristics can be studied further by adding defects. The defect used is Cdots from tangerines. Cdots are new materials that can be synthesized from natural materials and have unique properties. AgNp itself was synthesized by the chemical reduction method with sodium citrate as a reducing agent, while Cdots was synthesized by hydrothermal method. The results of the synthesis were analyzed using the Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) method. Absorption appears at a wave number of 1637 cm-1 which indicates the presence of C=C, C=O bonds which are characteristic of Cdots. For AgNp, absorption appears at a wave number of 593.11 cm-1 which indicates the presence of Ag vibrations. Analysis with UV-Vis spectrophotometer gave the results at a wavelength of 431 nm absorbance AgNp-Cdots of 0.723 and a wavelength of 422 nm AgNp absorbance of 0.285. The results of the Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) analysis showed that AgNp-Cdots had an average size of 38.7 nm with a PI of 0.499 and pure AgNp of 51.8 nm with a PI of 0.566. Antibacterial activity of AgNp-Cdots against E. coli bacteria showed an inhibition zone of 2 mm while AgNp showed an inhibition zone of 5 mm.

Abstract

Calcium bioavailability (Ca) states the ratio of available calcium to the amount of calcium consumed during metabolic processes. The bioavailability of Ca is calculated by the difference between the amount of Ca in the consumed food product and the excreted feces. In this research, calcium can be obtained from dahlia tuber syrup (Dahlia pinnata Cav.). The purpose of this study was to discuss the determination of Ca levels and a literature review of the Ca bioavailability of dahlia tuber syrup (Dahlia pinnata Cav.) in vitro. The content of Ca in dahlia tubers was determined experimentally using an XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence) instrument. The bioavailability of Ca was determined by predicting the ratio of inulin and Ca content. The results showed that the Ca content of dahlia tuber syrup was 197,57 ppm. The bioavailability of Ca in dahlia tuber syrup in vitro was predicted from a relatively high ratio of inulin content of around 65-86% and FOS levels from hydrolysis of 5% dahlia tuber inulin about 15,41-29,38% or an average of 22,395%, on Ca levels is 81,46-85,33%. The results of the study on the bioavailability of Ca in dahlia tuber syrup (Dahlia pinnata Cav.) have a fairly high level. The high bioavailability of Ca can increase calcium absorption in the body and have health effects, among others, for heart and bone health.
