Abstract

Curcumin (CUR) is a polyphenolic compound that exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity. However, only a tiny amount of CUR is absorbed during oral administration, which is because CUR is difficult to dissolve in water. The aim of the research was to increase the solubility of CUR through the cocrystallization technique using isonicotinamide coformer (INIC) by solvent evaporation. Cocrystal characterization was carried out using a powder X-ray diffractometer (PXRD), a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Solubility was evaluated using the shaking method, while the anti-inflammatory activity test was carried out using the carrageenan induced mouse leg edema method. The resulting CUR-INIC (1:1) cocrystal has a diffractogram with new diffraction peaks of 2theta at 15.00, 16.22, and 22.89◦ compared to the individual diffractograms of CUR and INIC. In the cocrystal, CUR and INIC form intermolecular interactions of hydrogen bonds, resulting in a new solid phase with a melting point of 160.1◦C. The solubility of the CUR-INIC cocrystal in water was 73.1±0.23 ug/mL, which increased 14 times compared to the solubility of initial CUR, which was only 5.05±0.07 ug/mL. The CUR-INIC cocrystal showed a percentage of edema inhibition in mice (5 hours) 130% more potent than that of initial CUR. Therefore, CUR-INIC cocrystals can be used to improve CUR solubility to obtain more excellent anti-inflammatory effects.

Abstract

Curcumin has various bio-functional properties; however, curcumin poor bioavailability reduces its efficacy. Nanoemulsion delivery system is an alternative method improving curcumin bioavailability in which surfactant and oil used, play an important role in determining nanoemulsion properties. Several studies on curcumin nanoemulsions apply synthetic surfactants which can be harmful if they are added excessively. This study aims to use a natural emulsifying agent, namely okra mucilage extract (OME), and determine its effectiveness as co surfactant. OME is safe to use as an emulsifying agent because it is natural, harmless, safe, biodegradable and eco-friendly. Liquid-liquid and microwave extraction methods were used to obtain OME which was further identified using Fourier Transfer Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). Meanwhile, sonication method was used to produce curcumin nano-emulsion (CurN). The particle size and polydispersity index of curcumin nano-emulsion were measured using Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) with Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) technique, while the morphology of the nanoemulsion was observed using a Digital Imaging Microscope and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM). The results showed that the addition of 0.0160 g OME at a ratio of 1:5 (OME: Tween 80) in the preparation of 5 mL of CurN was able to reduce the particle size and polydispersity index from 740.80 ± 9.70 nm to 289.20 ± 2.23 and 0.340 ± 0.005 to 0.165 ± 0.008 respectively. OME increased the encapsulation efficiency from 77.93 ± 6.59% to 87.17 ± 1.12% which was confirmed by the augmentation of the fluorescence intensity of curcumin from 192.82 to 388.55. The addition of OME also maintained the stability of the CurN up to 14 days of storage at 4°C.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of six chloride salts on butterfly pea flower extract’s anthocyanins stability. The salts were NaCl, KCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, FeCl3, and AlCl3. The samples were analyzed using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer to observe color degradation and change in hue during storage. The extraction of anthocyanins was done using a modified method, and the solutions were stored in dark vials at room temperature. The degradation kinetics of benzene derivatives, acyl groups, non-anthocyanin flavonoid, flavylium cation, quinonoidal base and anionic quinonoidal base were evaluated using the first-order reaction, and the half-life was calculated. The effect of metal ions was studied by analyzing the change in absorbance of each band using regression analysis and a slope test. The results showed that monovalent (Na+ and K+) and divalent (Ca2+ and Mg2+) ions did not result in a significant shift in the spectrogram. Trivalent metal ions (Al3+ and Fe3+) had limited interaction with the anthocyanins, heightened the brown color, and decreased the overall color quality. K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Al3+, and Fe3+ ions showed the ability to improve the stability of the extract’s color, while Na+ tended to accelerate color degradation. The pattern of changes in the spectrogram during storage suggests that color degradation occurs in two ways: the unfolding of hydrophobic interactions and the deacylation of anthocyanin. Trivalent metal ions showed the best stability performance, with Fe3+ preventing the unfolding of hydrophobic interactions and Al3+ hindering the deacylation. The combination of the two is highly likely to improve the color stability of the butterfly pea flower extract. However, both increase the browning index, thus decreasing color quality. This research highlights the potential of adding cations to improve the color stability of the butterfly pea flower extract, making it a more attractive food coloring agent.

Abstract

The development of a method for identification and determination of thiamphenicol by Fourier Transform Infrared will provide convenience to developers because it is fast and easy for analysis. The research was carried out by utilizing the solubility of thiamphenicol in methanol with three stages, namely method development, sample analysis, and method validation. The method development stage showed that the specific peak of thiamphenicol was at a peak with a wavenumber of 1694.1 cm−1; this specific peak of thiamphenicol was used for qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of thiamphenicol in the capsule dosage form. The sample analysis showed that all analyzed thiamphenicol in capsule dosage form showed good results both qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitatively all the samples analyzed showed a specific peak at specific positions and specific wavenumbers. These results meet the requirements for containing thiamphenicol in the dosage form. Quantitatively all the samples analyzed ranged from 97.97% to 102.24% by peak height and peak area. These results meet the requirements for active substance levels in general preparations within 90.0% to 110.0%. The method validation for peak height and peak area showed that the accuracy parameter had a recovery percentage of 100.28% and 100.41% (between 98.0% to 102.0%), the precision parameter with a relative standard deviation of 0.31% and 0.37% (not more than 2.0%), and the linearity parameter with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 and 0.9997 (not less than 0.99). The limit of detection value was 0.2971 mg/mL and 0.5338 mg/mL, the limit of quantitation value was 0.9004 mg/mL and 1.6176 mg/mL, the range for both was 80% to 120%, and the specificity for both met the requirement. The Fourier Transform Infrared method has been successfully developed, applied, and validated for qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of thiamphenicol in capsule dosage form.

Abstract

Mesalazine, often referred to as mesalamine or 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), and its derivatives are some of the first medications to be approved for treating digestive tract inflammations, including ulcerative colitis and mild to moderate Crohn’s disease. Sulfasalazine, discovered in 1938 for therapeutic use, was the first mesalazine derivative. High yields of four different mesalazine derivatives were synthesized, including two Schiff bases and two azo compounds. The present study involved the synthesis of Schiff bases through the reaction of mesalazine with pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde or indole-2-carbaldehyde, resulting in the formation of 5-(((1H-pyrrol-2-yl)methylene)amino)-2-hydroxybenzoic acid (1) or 5-(((1H-indol-2-yl)methylene)amino)-2hydroxybenzoic acid (2), respectively. The synthesis of azo compounds involved the coupling of mesalazine with sulfamethoxazole or pyridoxine, resulting in the formation of 5-amino-2-hydroxy-3-((4-(N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)sulfamoyl)phenyl)diazenyl)benzoic acid (3) or 2-hydroxy-5-((5-hydroxy-3,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)diazenyl)benzoic acid (4), respectively. The identification of the synthesized compounds was carried out using IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Antibacterial assessment of the synthetic compounds was performed in vitro against gram-negative bacteria (such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus). The antibacterial activity studies demonstrated that against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, the Schiff base compounds are more active than azo compounds. Compound 1 showed the highest activity, resulting in a 23 mm inhibition zone against E. coli at 1000 ug/ml. In contrast, the antibacterial activity of compound 2 was observed to be 25 mm against S. aureus at the same highest concentration.

Abstract

Industrial waste from Jumputan cloth production pose a significant risk to environmental safety due to their toxic synthetic dye content. Several studies have shown that the presence of bacteria in these materials plays a very important role in decolorization process of the constituent dye. Therefore, this study aims to isolate bacteria with the ability to decolorize direct red 80 from Jumputan cloth industrial waste. Characterization of isolates was carried out macroscopically, microscopically, and biochemically, followed by molecular identification using the 16S rRNA gene. Decolorization effects of the samples on red dye 80 were then assessed using a spectrophotometer at a maximum wavelength of 528 nm. The results showed that 6 bacteria isolates can degrade dye, with decolorizing power ranging from 26.33±0.94 - 73.67±0.47. The highest potential for decolorizing waste synthetic dye is seen in isolate BD 05. Phylogenetic analysis showed that there were 3 genera of bacteria among the samples obtained, namely Bacillus, Aeromonas, and Pseudomonas. These bacteria were closely related to Bacillus tropicus, Areomonas jandaei, and Pseudomonas stutzeri. Pseudomonas stutzeri (BD 05) has the highest potential in handling jumputan industrial waste.

Abstract

This study investigates the barriers to household waste recycling in Seremban, Malaysia, using the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) analysis. The research questions aimed to identify and rank the most significant barriers to recycling and understand the causal relationships between them. The study found that limited access to recycling facilities and services and lack of motivation or incentive to recycle were the most significant causes of household waste recycling barriers in Seremban. Onthe other hand, lack of motivation or incentive to recycle and negative attitudes towards recycling, were identified as the most significant effects. The study’s findings have theoretical implications for waste management and sustainable development and offer practical implications for policymakers and waste management practitioners in developing effective waste management strategies and policies that can address these barriers. Furthermore, the study’s insights into the most significant barriers to household waste recycling can inform the design of recycling campaigns and educational programs to increase awareness and promote household waste recycling in Seremban. Overall, this study provides a valuable contribution to the field of waste management and sustainable development and offers insights into the challenges of promoting household waste recycling in urban areas.

Abstract

Let H= (T,S), be a finite simple graph, T(H)= T and S(H)= S, respectively, are the sets of vertices and edges on H. Let σ:T∪S→1,2,· · · ,k, be a total k-labeling on H and wσ(x), be a weight of x∈T while using σ labeling, which is evaluated based on the total number of all vertices labels in the neighborhood x and its incident edges. If every x∈T has a different weight, then σ is a distance vertex irregular total k-labeling (DVITL). Total distance vertex irregularity strength of H (tdis(H) is defined as the least k for which H has a DVITL. Our research investigates the DVITL of the path (Pr) and cycle (Cr) graphs. We establish a lower bound and then calculate the precise value of tdis(Pr) and tdis(Cr).

Abstract

This paper explains the development of a quick and easy gas chromatography (GC) approach to identify methamphetamine in urine. This research used gas chromatography with mass spectroscopy and a capillary column TG-5SILMS (5% phenyl methyl siloxane, 30 m x 0.32 x 25 m). The carrier gas flow rate was set at 1.0 mL/minute, the temperature inlet and detector had been set at 300°C, and the oven temperature was programmed to initiate at 50°C and held for 1.5 minutes before being raised to 300°C at a rate 40°C/minute and held for 3 minutes. Sample pre-treatment by modification of the QuEChERS method includes using a relatively large amount of inorganic salt, extraction volume and extraction cycle. The optimal conditions for processing a 400 uL urine sample were 160 mg magnesium sulphate, 40 mg sodium chloride, and 400 uL acetonitrile for organic solvent. According to the validation test, the detection limit for methamphetamine was 0.36 ug/mL; the quantitation limit was 1.09 ug/mL, and the calibration curve followed the regression line. y=1.0489x-3.7914, coefficient (r) was 0.9973. The recovery of the analyte spiked into urine at 5, 7 and 9 ug/mL on average was 100.5±2.33% for intraday dan 93.3±7.21% for interday. The precision was excellent, with an average coefficient of variation of 2.31%. The procedure was applied to four urine samples from drug users and the first abuser (25.51 ug/mL), the second abuser (15.05 ug/mL), the third abuser (17.72 ug/mL) and the last abuser (3.08 ug/mL) were all satisfactorily quantitated.
