Physicochemical Properties of Halal Alternative Gelatin from Parrotfish (Scarus quoyi) Scales Optimized by Response Surface Methodology
No full textThe increasing demand for halal-friendly gelatin, combined with concerns over health risks associated with mammalian sources, has created a need for alternative raw materials. Fish scales from local species, such as parrotfish, offer a sustainable and promising option that has yet to be extensively explored. The study aims to investigate the physicochemical properties of gelatin extracted from the scales of the parrotfish (Scarus quoyi) scales. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was employed to determine the optimal concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and immersion time to maximize yield and quality. Physicochemical properties, including yield, moisture content, ash content, pH, and viscosity, were evaluated, and the structural characteristics of the gelatin were analyzed using Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). All processing steps were conducted in compliance with Halal Critical Control Points (HCCPs) to ensure the final product remained free from cross-contamination with non-halal substances. Response surface methodology optimization identified 4% HCl concentration and 29.4 hours of immersion as optimal conditions. These conditions produce gelatin with a yield, moisture, ash, pH, and viscosity are 14.5%, 4%, 0.48%, 4.15, and 1.78 cP, respectively. FTIR analysis confirmed that the extracted gelatin exhibited absorption peaks consistent with those of commercial gelatin, indicating a functional group similarity. Compared to gelatin from other fish species, parrotfish gelatin demonstrated a competitive yield and notably low moisture content, thereby enhancing its stability and storage potential. These findings highlight the potential of parrotfish scales as a sustainable source of halal gelatin, contributing to waste reduction and offering a viable alternative to mammalian gelatin

Legal Realism and Health Criminal Law Reform in the Era of Medical and Technological Advances
No full textHealth criminal law faces evolving challenges driven by rapid technological advancements and shifting social dynamics. Issues such as medical malpractice, drug counterfeiting, patient data privacy, and equitable access to healthcare require legal frameworks that are both adaptive and rights-based. However, Indonesia\u27s current legal regulations often fall short in addressing these complex realities, revealing a gap between normative provisions and practical implementation. This research analyses the challenges of enforcing health criminal law in the modern era through the lens of legal realism and proposes adaptive legal solutions. Utilising normative legal research, including statutory and conceptual approaches, the study examines primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials to assess the responsiveness of existing regulations. The findings highlight legal uncertainty, weak enforcement mechanisms, and insufficient alignment with technological and ethical developments. The novelty of this study lies in offering an integrated framework based on legal realism that emphasises pragmatic and contextually informed legal reform. Proposed solutions include comprehensive regulatory reform, restorative justice approaches, professional capacity-building, transparent oversight mechanisms, clear standards of criminal liability, and stronger protections against drug counterfeiting and patient data breaches. The study emphasises the need to strike a balance between law enforcement and human rights protection in the context of technological innovation in healthcare
Readiness of Human Resources Facing Demographic Bonus and Professional Revolution in Indonesia
No full textDigitalization today has a significant impact on improving workforce competency standards. One aspect is the mastery and utilization of technology, which is now a benchmark for job providers in the recruitment process. Indonesia also faces the challenge of the demographic bonus phenomenon, where the number of productive workers increases but quality remains inadequate. Unlike previous studies that focused more on evaluating education as a factor shaping human resources, this study examines the relationship between the demographic bonus phenomenon and professional revolution as well as reasons behind low-quality human resources in Indonesia. The purpose of this research is to provide solutions for human resource readiness in facing challenges posed by both demographic bonuses and professional revolutions in Indonesia. The researcher used a Systematic Literature Review Method by analyzing 36 Scopus and Sinta accredited journal articles sourced from Scopus and Google Scholar metadata through Publish or Perish (PoP). The results show two main problems: first, low quality of Indonesian human resources indicated by poor thinking skills; second, ineffectiveness of vocational high school education in producing competent workers due to their inability to optimize relationships with industries or employers. To overcome these problems, it is suggested to optimize STEAM learning and revitalize vocational schools while changing study duration to five years for Diploma II equivalent graduates like Thailand\u27s vocational education system

No full textThis study aims to empirically examine the effect of service quality, competence, and innovation on the marketing performance of Course and Training Institutions (Lembaga Kursus dan Pelatihan, LKP) in Semarang Regency, Central Java. The background of this research is based on the importance of the role of LKPs in improving human resource quality through professional, competent, and innovative non-formal education, which allows them to compete in the global era. This research uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive and causal design. Data was obtained through a survey using questionnaires and structured interviews with 150 respondents, who were managers of LKPs (Directors, Secretaries, Treasurers, Public Relations, and Marketing Administration). Data analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression tests with the coefficient of determination (R²) and partial (t-test) and simultaneous (F-test) significance tests. The results of the study show that service quality, competence, and innovation have a positive and significant effect on the marketing performance of LKPs, both simultaneously and partially. Innovation is the most dominant factor, followed by competence and service quality. These findings emphasize that LKPs capable of providing quality services, having competent management, and continuously innovating will be more successful in building their image, increasing competitiveness, and expanding marketing networks. The implications of this research emphasize the importance of policies that expand access to competence certification, encourage the digitalization of learning and marketing, and strengthen partnerships between LKPs and the business and industrial world (DUDI). Thus, the results of this research can contribute to improving the quality of non-formal education and provide practical guidance in managing LKPs in Indonesia. The originality of this research lies in its empirical study focus on LKPs in the local context of Semarang Regency, which has not been extensively researched. In addition to providing quantitative evidence on the determinants of marketing performance in non-formal educational institutions, this study also enriches the literature by emphasizing the role of innovation as the most influential variable in strengthening the competitiveness of non-formal institutions in the era of digital transformation
Developing a Strategic Framework for Mapping Sustainable Business Opportunities in Islamic Higher Education Institutions under the Badan Layanan Umum (BLU) Scheme
No full textThis study aims to develop a strategic, ethical, and sustainability-oriented conceptual framework for identifying and evaluating sustainable business opportunities within Indonesian Islamic Higher Education Institutions operating under the Public Service Agency (PTKI BLU) model. Amid rising pressures on higher education institutions to reduce reliance on public funding and enhance revenue diversification, PTKI BLUs face the unique challenge of balancing market responsiveness with strict adherence to Islamic values and broader sustainability imperatives. This research adopts a qualitative conceptual approach inspired by Jabareen’s framework analysis method, integrating extensive literature reviews and secondary data from institutional reports, policy documents, and best practices across PTKI BLUs. The findings result in a multidimensional framework composed of four core dimensions: (1) Internal Resource Audit, (2) External Needs & Market Analysis, (3) Business Model Development with a triple-filter evaluation (BLU Feasibility, Islamic Value Congruence, and Sustainability Impact), and (4) Strategic Prioritization, Implementation, and Monitoring. This framework assists PTKIs in strategically transforming internal assets—academic expertise, physical infrastructure, networks, and Islamic identity—into mission-aligned and financially viable ventures across sectors such as halal industry, Sharia finance, education services, and community-based enterprises. The implications of this study are twofold: it offers a roadmap for PTKIs to enhance their institutional resilience through ethically grounded entrepreneurship, and it contributes to the discourse on Islamic university governance under autonomy models like BLU. The originality of this research lies in its integrated approach, bridging regulatory flexibility, Islamic ethical principles, and sustainability into a unified model—addressing a critical theoretical and practical gap in current higher education and Islamic management scholarship
