Get PDFPreparation and characterization of magnetite Fe3O4-palm shell activated carbon composite has been carried out as an adsorbent of phenol compounds. Composites were preparation using the co-precipitation method by mixing Fe3O4 magnetite and suspension of activated carbon in water at 2:1 ratio by co-precipitation method. The functional groups, morphology and magnetization of the composites were characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM-EDX and VSM. The XRD characterization result showed that the irregular activated carbon diffraction pattern on the composite showed that the carbon structure was amorphous and the peak was typical of Fe3O4 at an angle of 2θ 35.3961˚ with the distance of the diffraction plane or d = 2.53387Ǻ. VSM characterization shows the magnetic properties of magnetite are super paramagnetic with the resulting magnetization value of 15.93 emu/g, the remanence value (Mr) is 1.79 emu/g and the coercivity value (Hc) is 131.64 Oe. Adsorbent used for phenol adsorption with optimum at pH 6 with adsorption capacity was      6.71 mg/g, 120 minute contact time with adsorption capacity was 9.63 mg/g and the amount of phenol absorbed reached equilibrium a concentration of 300 mg/L of phenol with an adsorption capacity is 58.6 mg/g. The kinetics parameter showed that the adsorption followed pseudo second-order model

Get PDFThe development of complex compounds as antibacterial continues to be carried out to overcome cases of microbial resistance. One of them is the development of complex compounds with thiocyanate and aminopyridine ligands which show good potential as antibacterial. Complex compound of zinc(II) chloride with thiocyanate and 2-aminopyridine ligands was successfully synthesized. The synthesis was carried out by mixing the reactants with ratio of Zn2+: 2-aminopyridine: SCN 1:2:2 under heating and stirring continuously for 6 hours. The Obtained beam-shaped colorless crystals were characterized using melting point, electrical conductivity, thiocyanate ion qualitative, FTIR, SEM-EDX, XRD powder and antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhi and Staphylococcus aureus test. The crystals melt at 160-165 0C. The results of the electrical conductivity test, qualitative test of thiocyanate ion, FTIR and SEM-EDX analysis indicate the presence of Zn2+, thiocyanate and 2-aminopyridine with ratio 1: 2: 2. Based on XRD powder spectral data and theoritical analysis, the complex synthesized compounds had high crystallinity and predicted has tetrahedral structure. Antibacterial test showed that against S.aureus, the compound had higher antibacterial activity than free ligands, but lower than chloramphenicol. Therefore, the antibacterial activity of the complex compound was classified as moderate

Sintesis Senyawa-Senyawa Epoksi dari Asam Lemak Minyak Nyamplung (Calophyllum inophyllum L.)
Get PDFEpoxidation is a reaction of a carbon double bond with active oxygen, which results in the addition of an oxygen atom, converting the original double bond into a three-membered epoxide (oxirane) ring. Generally, the raw material for making epoxy comes from petroleum. Nyamplung kernel oil is a non-edible oil that can be used as an alternative raw material for making epoxy derivatives. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum conditions and characterization of epoxy materials. The fatty acids of Nyamplung kernel oil were reacted formic acid and hydrogen peroxide with sulfuric acid as a catalyst. The optimum condition of the following parameters on the study of this process was investigated: the epoxidation time, temperature, and the mole ratio of formic acid and hydrogen peroxide. The results showed that the optimum reaction conditions with the temperature was 65 oC, the mole ratio of formic acid and hydrogen peroxide was 1:6, and the reaction time was 75 minutes. The results of the characterization under optimum conditions showed the oxirane value of 1.69, the iodine number of 9.63 mg iod/100 g, and the epoxy conversion of 67.6 %. The results of FTIR characterization showed absorption at a wavenumber of 820.03 cm-1 which is a specific absorption from the oxirane ring of the epoxy compound
Black Water Purification by Activated Carbon from Ilalang Weeds (Imperata cylindrica) Adsorbent in Peatland Rural Area
Get PDFThe black water containing humic acid, HA in peat land rural area is a serious issue. This study aims to synthesis of activated carbon, AC from Ilalang Weeds, IW (Imperata cylindrica) as low-cost adsorbent for HA. The success AC synthesis by H3PO4 activator from IW was evidently characterized by Fourier Transform Infra-Red, FTIR and Scanning Electron Microscopy, SEM. The effects of pH solution, initial HA concentration, and contact time were systematically studied to investigate the performance of Activated Carbon from Ilalang Weeds, ACIW. The results showed the increasing of Langmuir monolayer capacity of HA adsorption on carbon from IW before (49.75 mg g-1) and after (56.82 mg g-1) activation process at the pH optimum 6.0. The equilibrium adsorption data fitted with the isotherm model was shifted from multilayer Freundlich model (CIW) into monolayer Langmuir model as the consequences of increasing pore diameter size and active sites intensity. Calculation of adsorption energy by Dubinin-Radushkevich (EDR) model, 0.50 and 2.24 kJ mol-1 for CIW and ACIW, respectively, showed the increasing of physical affinity of HA with the active sites of adsorbent. Adsorption kinetics showed that the adsorption behavior followed the Ho pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The experimental results of this work demonstrate that the ACIW can be used as a promising low-cost adsorbent for HA removal for clean water production in peat land rural area.Â
Sintesis, Karakterisasi Struktur, dan Kajian Molecular Docking Senyawa Turunan 4’-Metoksi Flavonol sebagai Antagonis Reseptor Estrogen Alpha (ER-a) pada Kanker Payudara
No full textA long period of drug administration in breast cancer chemotherapy can cause various side effects. These situations encourage researchers to search for and develop alternative anticancer drugs through various approaches. This study aimed to synthesize a flavonol derivative (TF4) and to study the interactions of the synthesized compound with ER-α as one of the targeted receptors in breast cancer treatment. The synthesis was carried out using the stirring method and the study of interactions of TF4 with ER-α was performed through molecular docking against ER-α crystal structures bound to an antagonist (PDB ID: 3ERT) and agonist (PDB ID: 1A52). The synthesis of TF4 produced crude product in 58 % yield and pure product in 6 % yield. The structure of TF4 was confirmed by spectroscopic analyses including UV, FT-IR, 1D, and 2D NMR. The docking results showed that the TF4 does not form any conventional hydrogen bond with ER-α. However, it can form carbon-hydrogen (C--H) bonds and van der Walls interactions with several important residues on the active site of ER-α. In addition, the binding free energy values of TF4 (-9.14 and -9.50 kcal/mol) are more negative than estradiol (E2) as one of the natural ligands for ER-α. Thus, it can be estimated that TF4 can be bounded easier on the active site of ER-α than its natural ligand. It may presume that it can act as an estrogen antagonist because of the similarity in interactions and binding poses compared to TAM, TOR, dan 4-OHT as reference drug molecules

Hidrogel Superabsorben Berbasis Natrium Alginat-Bentonit sebagai Pelapis Pupuk Lepas Lambat
Get PDFThe application of slow-release fertilizer in agriculture is currently very necessary because of its performance that can control the release of fertilizer. However, the case of excessive use of urea on agricultural land has the potential to cause water pollution because the process of nitrification produces nitrite ions that are toxic and eutrophication of water and prevent harmful N2O gas emissions. This research has been done making urea slow-release fertilizer in the form of superabsorbent hydrogel with crosslink method and bentonite coating technique by sodium alginate. The hydrogels formed characterized its structure and morphology with FTIR and SEM-EDS, as well as swelling tests to see its ability to store water. Furthermore, to test the performance of hydrogel as a slow-release fertilizer is carried out urea release test at various pH and times. The results showed that urea fertilizer has filled the structure and surface of hydrogel with a swelling ratio of 2.894,30% (BAC1) and 3.428,52% (BAC2). The addition of CaCl2 crosslinking agent provides increased gelation power, swelling, and adsorption capacity against urea in addition to the urea release process is not affected by pH
