Get PDFBioplastics are bio-based plastics from natural resources, made to replace conventional plastics. The utilization of biopolymers in bioplastics provide a faster degradation compared to petroleum-based plastics. Starch-based bioplastic from mixing Durio zibethinus Murr starch and glycerol as plasticizer have been conducted. In this research, the concentration of glycerol has been varied to study the effect on starch-based bioplastics mechanical properties. The tensile strength for Durio zibethinus Murr starch-based bioplastic with 20% glycerol was 50.28 MPa with 13.3% elongation. The functional group found on the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectra indicated the presence of O-H stretch, C-H stretch, C=O stretch, and C-O stretch which stated the formation of bioplastic. The image results gained from scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that the morphology surface of bioplastic was less homogenous and rough. The soil burial test for biodegradability showed Durio zibethinus Murr starch-based bioplastic achieved 38.9% weight loss in a 5-day observation

Optimized parameters were composition of bentonite in carbon paste electrode, deposition time, deposition potential, and scan rate. Validation of measurements was observed including determination of linear concentration range, detection and quantization limits, repeatability of measurement, and percentage of recovery. The optimum composition of bentonite in CPE-B was found at 50%. Furthermore, in the optimization of measurements condition was found the optimum deposition times were 90 and 60 s, deposition potentials were -0.63 and -0.53 V, and scan rates were 15 and 20 mV/s, for CPE and CPE-B. The linear range concentration for CPE observed at 25-2000 µg/L and CPE-B was 5-50 µg/L. Limit of detection and quantization using CPE-B were 0.337 µg/L and 0.349 µg/L, lower than CPE i.e., 0.470 µg/L and 0.471 µg/L, respectively. Repeatability measurement of Cd(II) had Horwitz Ratio value less than two, and percentage of recovery was 96.73 8.33%. The level of Cd(II) ion in chicory was found at 6.98 0.40 mg/kg

In the current work, we aimed to study the binding orientation of 1,5-benzothiazepine compounds as new potential agent against Zika virus inhibitor through molecular docking and molecular dynamic simulation. Since, 1-5-Benzothiazepines are particular interest for drug discovery and they also has some biological activities. However, their antiviral activities and in silico studies of the binding to their biological targets have not been extensively investigated. Molecular docking study of 1,5-benzothiazepine chalcone derivatives compounds with protein target 5GJB (PDB ID) and this protein was taken from the crystallographic structure. In this study, twelve 1,5-benzothiazepine chalcone derivative compounds were docked to the protein with the grid box along x, y and z radius of 26.85, 28.17 and 24.43 Å, respectively. Suramin was used as positive control. Thus, it can be used as a reference for design new inhibitors for Zika virus helicase. Based on the docking results, it is observed that compounds MA3 and MA8 are estimated to have activity as inhibitors for Zika virus helicase with binding free energy values of -4.6490 and -4.9291 kcal/mol, respectively. MA3 and MA8 were also stable during the MD simulations with the hydrogen bonding are still maintained before and after MD simulation. Furthermore, both of these compounds can be used an early stage for drug design and drug delivery process

This study aims to investigate the quality of rainwater chemical compounds at the Mutiara Palu Meteorological Station using 282 samples derived from the BMKG Air Quality Database during February 1993 – January 2020. The method used are descriptive analysis and correlation analysis to determine the relationship between chemical compound reactions that occur in the rainwater in Palu City. The results showed that the chemical compounds in rainwater in Palu City were dominated by strong acid compounds in the form of Cl-, SO42-, and NO3- compounds with a percentage of 63% and the most dominant quality was in the acidic rain category with a pH value below 5.6, as much as 55.7%. Chemical compounds contained in rainwater in Palu City are mineral compounds that originated from natural form of minerals, particularly from sea salt. The relationship between chemical compounds contained in rainwater has varied values and is in the low to moderate category. In general, the results indicate that the quality of rainwater in Palu City is low and not recommended for health and the environment
