Abstract

Andaliman fruit is one kind of spice that has antioxidant benefits. Secondary antioxidants are needed by the human body to combat internal and external free radicals. Effort can be made to eliminate these free radicals by eating foods that have active compounds with adequate antioxidant activity. The study aims to identify the group of secondary metabolite compounds and the antioxidant activity of fruit flesh and seeds. The extraction method used is maceration using a 70% ethanol-acidified solvent. The phytochemical screening method is a color reaction. The method of antioxidant activity is DPPH. Result of the phytochemical screening of simplisia and extract of fruit (seeds and flesh) show the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and tannins. The results of the phytochemical screening of seed simplisia revealed the presence of alkaloids, terpenoids, and tannins. The antioxidant activity of seed and flesh extracts falls into the strong category with IC50 values of (56,80 and 52,32) ppm. It has been suggested that the maceration method using the acidified solvent affects the antioxidant activity of seeds and flesh of the andaliman fruit.

Abstract

ADC (Antibody Drug Conjugation) is a complex molecule consisting of antibodies designed as a targeted therapy to treat disease, or a biologically active cytotoxic drug. Docking simulations of the pertuzumab antibody with the BCN OH ligand were carried out to see the interactions and stable conjugates between the antibody and the ligand as a form of ADC development using three software, consisting of Discovery Studio, pymol and pyrex. The pymol application is used for the preparation of pertuzumab, namely removing residues and water and is used to combine the ligand with the antibody, while the use of Pyrex Autodocx Vina is to determine the conformation of the ligand in binding with the macromolecule. Discovery studio is used to realize the bond between the linker and antibody and see the interactions that occur. This research aims to determine the interaction of pertuzumab with BCN OH as a starting point for selecting a suitable ligand for the ADC product so that later the ADC will be more stable until the target of the simulations carried out is obtained by the results of interactions that occur between pertuzumab and the BCN OH molecule. After being realized in two dimensions, it can be seen that there are amino acid compounds that bind to BCN OH on side B:103, there is lysine, side B:40 proline, side B:38 Arginine, side B:85 Threonine, and on side B:415 there is Air molecules. In the docking process, the presence of lysine bonds is an important factor in looking at the interaction of compounds with their macromolecules, considering that lysine is one of the residues that will bind to the functional groups on the linker to produce ADC products.

Abstract

Industrial wastewater generated by nickel mining has a high content of heavy metals, one of which is Chromium Hexavalent or Cr(VI) metal. Commonly used methods in reducing Cr(VI) metal concentration are coagulation and adsorption. This method is the most economical, simple and highly efficient method. This research uses the coagulation - adsorption integration system method, which is a combination of coagulation and adsorption methods in stages and uses the same wastewater. The purpose of this research is to see the performance of alum, FeSO4 and a combination of alum: FeSO4 as coagulant and fly ash as adsorbent in the removal of Cr(VI) levels in wastewater samples. Also, the efficiency of using the coagulation - adsorption integration system in the removal of heavy metal levels. The adsorption capacity value of this process can also be calculated. The resulting data were then evaluated using a spectrophotometer visible to assess the reduction of Cr(VI) concentration in wastewater. Based on the experiment, alum type coagulant with a waste and coagulant composition ratio of 2:3 and a stirring time of 60 minutes can reduce Cr(VI) levels to 14.18 mg/L from 100 mg/L. The addition of the adsorption process using fly ash helped reduce the concentration of heavy metal Cr(VI) to 12.15 mg/L and the highest efficiency value was 87.9%, and the adsorption capacity value was 0.087 mg/gram.

Abstract

Driving under the influence of alcohol is a safety issue of increasing public concern. Alcohol is a factor in many categories of accidents. Investigations and resolution of legal problems need to be followed up until the case is resolved in court. Items in the form of physical evidence related to the crime scene, victims and suspects need to be identified. Based on this, one of the topics raised in this research includes the results of identification and analysis of criminal cases involving alcohol consumption which were tested qualitatively and quantitatively, so that evidence can be determined during the investigation process as to whether there is alcohol content in it. In the process of qualitative identification of alcohol content, it is carried out using the Conway Microdiffusion method which states that the urine evidence is positive for alcohol, which is indicated by the color changing to green. Meanwhile, identification of alcohol levels in evidence is carried out using a Gas Chromatography -Flame lonization Detector (GC-FID). Analysis of the alcohol content in the evidence stated that the presence of ethanol was 0.0352%.

Abstract

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) boasts a rich historical legacy as an herbal plant employed across generations for diverse therapeutic purposes, including pain relief, inflammation mitigation, anti-diarrheal effects, cough suppression, alleviation of fatigue, and anti-anxiety and antidepressant properties. Despite its acclaimed medicinal versatility, this plant harbors psychoactive attributes, thereby posing the risk of misuse and potential dependence, along with withdrawal effects. The alkaloid composition of kratom, featuring opioid receptor agonist properties, underscores its analgesic efficacy, thereby carrying a risk of dependence and withdrawal akin to other opioid agonists. Beyond its role as an opioid agonist, the analgesic mechanism of kratom extends to additional complementary pathways, presenting a potential superiority to morphine. Notably, kratom constituents inhibit key drug-metabolizing enzymes (CYP) and the multidrug transporter, p-glycoprotein, potentially leading to heightened levels of co-administered drugs that are substrates for these proteins, presenting a potential risk of adverse outcomes, including fatality. Given the perceived imbalance of risks versus benefits, there arises a rationale for the prohibition of kratom use as an herbal remedy. However, the exploration of purified drugs derived from kratom isolates remains a promising avenue for research, with the potential to surpass standard pharmaceutical interventions.

Abstract

Bioethanol is an alternative energy source that can be used to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. This study aims to produce bioethanol from pineapple peel waste using Clostridium acetobutylicum bacteria with initial pre-treatment to separate cellulose and lignin. The research methods include raw material preparation, delignification, hydrolysis, and fermentation. The results show that pre-treatment with NaOH solution successfully reduces lignin content in pineapple peels, while hydrolysis using HCl solution increases glucose content. Fermentation with variations in starter concentration and nutrient type resulted in the highest bioethanol content of 4% with the use of urea nutrient and 7% starter concentration. GC-FID analysis indicates that besides ethanol, methanol is also detected as a by-product. In conclusion, Clostridium acetobutylicum bacteria can be used to produce bioethanol from pineapple peel waste, with the concentration of starter and nutrient type influencing the ethanol content produced.
