Produksi Oligomer Kitosan dari Limbah Udang Windu (Panaeus monodon) Menggunakan Enzim Kitosanase dari Isolat Bakteri Klebsiella sp.
Chitosan is a biopolymer that is the main content of D-glucosamine and several parts of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine bound to β- (1-4) glucoside. Chitosan receive special attention as functional biopolymers for applications in various fields. Chitosan is more effectively absorbed into the human body when it gets converted into chitosan oligomer form. Chitosan oligomer is a mixture of oligomers of D-glucosamine are formed through a process of severing ties depolymerization of chitosan with β-glycosidic.

Analysis of Mercury (Hg) Distribution In The Waeapo River Irrigation Area, Buru Regency, Maluku Province, Gold Mining Without Permission Result In Botak Mountain Area
The Waeapo River has 13 watersheds, which are irrigated area for thousand hectare of rice field in the District of Buru. Buru District is one of the area that can supply thousands of tons of rice. But, yields to be reduced by the presence of gold mining activities in the Botak Mountain. Gold mining activities not only impact for the decline in yields, but also impact on the quality of rice by mercury pollution generated by mining waste. This research aims to determine the accumulation of mercury in sediment of Waeapo river. The research method is used survey and analysis method. In this research, observations were done and field sampling with the laboratory analyze. The result showed that concentration of analyzed mercury at four point, one point has exceeded standard of mercury limits in the sediment, i.e 0.1 pp

Computational Study Natural Color Essence (Dyes) As Active Material On Organic Solar Cell With Density Functional Theory (DFT)
Computational calculation has been done for anthocyanin, tocoferol and they derivatives. The computational calculation was conduct to know the compound potential of anthocyanin, tocoferol and they derivatives as active material on organic solar cell. Computational calculation was done by used Gaussian 03 for windows with ab inito alternative electron structure theory namely Density Functional Theory (DFT) with B3LYP method at basis set 6-31G (d). Computational calculation obtains that the structure of anthocyanin, tocoferol and they derivatives were symmetrical. There were two compounds of anthocyanin (A1 and A5) and two compounds of tocoferol (T3 and T4) which more stable than the others compounds. The compounds had lowest energy gap were consist of A1= 0.12629 eV, A5= 0.12570 eV, T3= 0.19334 eV and T4= 0.19231 eV. The moment dipole from compound of anthocyanin, tocoferol and they derivatives had highest value, they were A1 and T1 while the total energy had lowest value they A2 and T1. The Substituent methoxy and hydroxy were added the density load of C atom was substituted so it would increase the activity of the phenyl ring on anthocyanin and they derivatives, while substituent methyl and hydroxy were added the density load of C atom was substituted so it was increase the activity of the phenyl ring on tocoferol and they derivatives. For compounds of anthocyanin main orbital populations showed that there were load transfer only from middle chain (ether) and compounds of tocoferol main orbital populations showed that there was load transfer only from phenyl ring. The method of density functional B3LYP/6-31G(d) would be applied to structure prediction and electronic characteristic of anthocyanin, tocoferol compounds and they derivatives before synthetic
Complexation of 5,5,7,12,12,14-Hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-Tetraazayclotetradeca-7,14-Dienium Bromide With Copper Acetate In Methanol And Aqueous Solutions
5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclodeca-7,14-dienium bromide disolvate ((Me6N4H4)Br2.2H2O) is a 14-membered deprotonated tetraaza macrocyclic salt. Its neutral analogues and their complexes were prepared by templation method under refluxed condition since it was discovered by Curtis in 1961. However, the present diprotonated tetraaza salts react with many metallic salts in both methanolic and aqueous solutions. The complexation involved deprotonation of the diagonally opposite protonated amines and the type of metal salt and solvents also play an important role in the final complex formation. The complexation of (Me6N4H4)Br2.2H2O with copper acetate in methanol and aqueous solutions gave the expected complex of [Cu((Me6N4H2)Br]Br.2H2O. Pseudo-first order condition for the complexation reaction in water was established
