Abstract

The chitosan isolation from crab crab waste (Portunus sanginolentus) has been carried out. Chitin production is carried out by the de-proteination, demineralization and depigmentation processes. Chitosan biopolymer is produced from chitin through de-acetylation method using base solution (NaOH) and the addition of NaBH4 which aims to increase the degree of de-acetylation (DD) of chitosan. The results of 25 g of chitin obtained chitosan amounted to 16.67 g (66.68%). Chitin and Chitosan were identified by a Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectrophotometer.

Abstract

The clay used taken from Lontor Village, Central Maluku Regency, Banda Besar Island. The clay was activated at 350 °C for 3 hours using a furnace. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of physically activated Lontor natural clay in reducing levels of phosphate ions using the adsorption method. The adsorption capacity of clay is determined based on two parameters. The parameters are the optimum contact time used are 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hours and variations of the concentration are 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg/L of phosphate. The concentration of phosphate adsorbed on the clay was measured by a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 665 nm. The results showed that the optimum conditions for the adsorption of phosphate ions by Lontor natural clay were obtained at the contact time of 5 hours and the concentration of 40 mg/L. The adsorption of phosphate ions by Lontor activated natural clay followed the pseudo-second-order Lagergren adsorption kinetics model with a rate constant value (k2) of 3.39 x 10-1 g mg-1 min-1, and following the Freundlich adsorption isotherm models with a correlation coefficient (R2), Freundlich constant (Kf), and n values, respectively are 0.9513; 0.57 mg1-1/n L1/n/g, and 0.40 g/L.

Abstract

Physical and chemical factors influence antioxidant activity. One of the physical factors that can affect antioxidant activity is heat. This study aims to determine the phytochemical content and the effect of heating the crude extract of marine macroalgae Padina australis on antioxidant activity. The research method used, namely maceration using methanol as a solvent to obtain a crude extract, then evaporation of the solvent at a temperature of 45 °C. Furthermore, phytochemical tests were carried out, characterization using TLC and UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and determination of free radical scavenging activity of DPPH. The results of the phytochemical test showed that the crude extract of Padina australis was positive for bioactive compounds, namely saponins, alkaloids, terpenoids, steroids, and flavonoids. Characterization by TLC and UV-Vis spectrophotometer showed the presence of secondary metabolites, namely chlorophyll a and carotenoids. The use of temperature in the solvent evaporation process affects the stability of bioactive compounds and secondary metabolites. The results of the antioxidant activity test (IC50) of the crude extract of Padina australis against DPPH obtained 163 ppm, so it is classified as an antioxidant in the medium category.

Abstract

Ginger is a traditional plant that thrives and has essential functions, including an antioxidant. This study aimed to determine the phytochemical content and test the antioxidant activity of fresh white ginger and powdered ginger (Zingiber officinale var. Amarum.). Two methods are used in this research: the phytochemical test and the antioxidant activity test using DPPH. Phytochemical tests, such as flavonoid, phenolic, steroid, and saponin, were conducted qualitatively. The antioxidant activity test was carried out using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Fresh white ginger and powdered ginger were extracted using the maceration method with water solvent. The study results showed that the effects of fresh white ginger extract obtained a yield of 64.08%. Meanwhile, powdered ginger extract was 58.68%. Phytochemical test results of fresh white ginger extract and powdered ginger (commercial) showed positive results for flavonoid, phenolic, and saponin compounds while adverse effects for steroids. Antioxidant activity test on fresh white ginger extract with water solvent showed an IC50 value of 25.41 ppm. The powdered ginger extract (commercial) has an IC50 value of 36.70 ppm. The results showed fresh white ginger and powdered ginger had relatively high antioxidant activity.
