Uji Aktivitas Antioksidan Ekstrak Metanol Biji Kesumba Keling (Bixa orellana L)
Kesumba keling (Bixa orellana L) has been widely used as a natural dye on lips, hair, and cloth. The red pigment in kesumba keling seeds comes from a bixin and norbixin compound which have many conjugated double bonds, so it has the potential of antioxidants. This study aims to determine the antioxidant compound and an antioxidant activity of methanol extract of kesumba keling seeds. The moisture content of kesumba keling seeds is 78.74%. The powder of kesumba keling seeds was extracted using maceration method with 80% of methanol. Phytochemical test results of methanol extract positively contained flavonoid compound. An antioxidant activity test of methanol extract of kesumba keling seeds was carried out by determining DPPH free radical deterrent activity. The absorbance measurement were made using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 517 nm. Kesumba keling seeds extract has antioxidant activity which is indicated by IC50 value of 69.425 ppm, so it is classified as a strong antioxidant

Research on phytoaccumulation of Ni and Zn in Nypa fruticans plants at Tallo River has been done to know the capability of Nypa fruticans for accumulating Ni and Zn. Water, sediment, and plant tissue samples were taken at five stations on the Tallo River using a cutting tool and pipe paralon. Sediment was digested with concentrated HNO3 while plants tissue using HNO3 6M, then analyzed by ICP EOS Shimadzu 9000. The results showed the average concentration of Ni inside part of the plant from station 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in order following 21.759,03 ppm, 19.056,03 ppm; 36.806,25 ppm; 10.736,66 ppm dan 13.849,25 ppm. Average concentration of Zn inside the plant from station 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 in order following 1.319,60 ppm; 1.362,93 ppm; 2.053,46 ppm; 1.591,60 ppm; dan 1.474,09 ppm. Accumulation of Zn and Ni in Nypa fruticans is grouped as hyperaccumulation plant because the ability of accumulation Ni bigger than 10.000 mg/kg and hyperaccumulation towards Zn because able to accumulate Zn bigger than 10 mg/kg. BCF and TF value show that Nypa fruticans naturally able to be used as an phytoremediation plant towards Ni and Zn, especially phytoextraction and rhizofiltration

Penentuan Model Adsorpsi Metil Merah pada Karbon Aktif berbasis Torefaksi Arang Batubara
The Rate Determining Step (RDS) in adsorption proses plays a key role in order to understand the correct adsoption mechanism. In this experiment, a simple method used for distinguishing the RDS of liquid adsorption on solid adsorben was studied by an experiment based on Shrinking-Core Diffusion-based Model (SCM). RDS determination was done by comparing experimental data of two SCM Models: (1) Pore-Surface Model Diffusion (PSDM) and (2) Film-Pore Diffusion Model (FPDM). The adsorption of methylene blue by activated carbon obtained from Jatropha curcas L. was used as a case study. The result of experiment by three variated parameters: initial concentration (C0), pH, and type of adsorben shows that PSDM has more accuration compared to FPDM in representating the characterstic of mass transport of metil red adsorption on activated carbon

Penambatan Molekuler α, β, dan γ-mangostin Sebagai Inhibitor α-amilase Pankreas Manusia
The in silico studies of interactions between the human pancreatic α-amylase (HPA) enzyme to α, β, and γ-mangostin ligands has been carried out using the molecular docking method. Ligands α, β, and γ-mangostin interacting through the formation of hydrogen and van der waals bonds to residues on the enzyme active side. The α-mangostin ligands resulting seven hydrogen and six van der waals bonds with the residues involved were Trp59, Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Thr164, Ala198, His201, Glu233, and Asp300. β-mangostin resulting five hydrogen and eight van der waals bonds with residues involved were Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Thr164, Arg195, Asp197, His201, Glu233, Asp300, and His305; while γ-mangostin forms nine hydrogen and five van der waals bonds with residues involved were Trp59, Gln63, Trp96, Thr163, Asp197, Ala198, His201, Glu233, and Asp300. The binding affinity of α, β, and γ-mangostin to the HPA enzyme obtained were -7.0; -6.6; and -7.4 kcal/mol with root mean square deviation (RMSD) value were 1,850; 1,956; and 1,811 Å respectively. Ligand γ-mangostin has potential activity as an inhibitor of HPA enzyme due to the stabilization of the complexes formation with lower binding affinity (validated with RMSD value) when compared to α and β-mangostin
