Abstract

Water is a very important compound for the life of living things including humans for daily needs, one of the sources of water comes from well water. Problems encountered in the well water, including the quality that does not meet quality standards. The water parameters include iron content which according to well water quality standards is 0.3 mg/l. Water quality can be improved by using the electromagnetic induction method. This study aims to analyze the decrease in iron content and dissolved ions due to electromagnetic induction. This research method uses survey and experimental methods. The survey was carried out at Surya Akbar Talang Jambe's residence accompanied by well water sampling and continued with experiments, namely the treatment of the electromagnetic induction method to reduce the levels of iron and dissolved ions. The iron content value of the well water before treatment was 47.85 ppm with 50, 80, and 100 coils and after the treatment the iron content value decreased to 45.79 ppm, 45.62 ppm, and 45.53 ppm, respectively. The parameters of dissolved ions were measured by Electrical Conductivity (EC) meter, the results obtained before treatment were 54.7 S/cm and after induction treatment with 50.80, and 100 turns, each obtained 43 S/cm, 42.8 S/ cm, and 40.6µS/cm.

Abstract

Taro plants (Colocasia esculenta) contain secondary metabolites identified as antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer such as alkaloids, glucosides, terpenoids, resins, flavonoids, saponins, phenols, tannins, amino acids. This article discusses various sources related to the potential of taro as an antibacterial, the discussion includes the content of secondary metabolites along with their properties and characteristics, medicinal plant extraction methods, antibacterial testing, applications and future challenges. This review research used data in the form of articles from Scopus, PubMed and Web of Science indexed sources, published between 2015-2024. Data were analyzed descriptively to summarize trends in antibacterial activity and variability across studies. Ethanol extract of taro was screened for secondary metabolite content, antibacterial activity was tested by Kirby Bauer method. Synthesis of antibacterial medicinal plant-based nanoparticles were successfully synthesized with size range between 10-120 nm, with inhibition zones between 11.9-37 mm against pathogens such as S. aureus, E. coli, and L. monocytogenes. Antibacterial nanofibers were synthesized by electrospinning, self-assembly, phase separation, template synthesis, coaxial electrospinning,electrospraying. Characterization used UV-Vis Spectroscopy, FTIR, TEM, XRD, SEM-EDX, HPLC to separate, identify, and quantify bioactive compounds. Common antibacterial mechanisms include inhibition of protein and nucleic acid synthesis, cell membrane damage, and cell structure modification. The application of taro as antibacterial is investigated in pharmaceutical field, industrial field, food field, waste treatment, dentistry field, biomedical field. The development of taro as an antibacterial has great prospects in the pharmaceutical industry, especially as a safe and effective alternative to conventional antibiotics.

Abstract

The use of natural materials in bio-battery research plays a crucial role in the search for environmentally friendly and cost-effective energy solutions. This study aims to determine the optimal composition of fermented cucumber juice and the addition of NaCl at the fermentation's optimal point to produce maximum current and voltage. Graphite sheets were used as the anode and aluminum sheets as the cathode. The cucumber juice was fermented for varying durations: 0, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, and 168 hours. Tapioca flour was gradually added until a solid electrolyte was formed. This solid electrolyte was then placed between the graphite and aluminum sheets to measure current and voltage output. At the optimal fermentation time, varying amounts of NaCl (0.5 g, 1 g, 1.5 g, 2 g, 2.5 g, and 3 g) were added to determine the best-performing composition. The results showed that the optimal composition without NaCl was achieved at 48 hours of fermentation, yielding a current of 0.76 mA and a voltage of 0.695 V. With the addition of NaCl, the maximum current and voltage reached 2.01 mA and 0.704 V, respectively, with the optimal NaCl mass being 1.5 g. This research shows great promise for further development due to its simple methodology and the use of low-cost, eco-friendly materials.

Abstract

The skin is the topmost layer safeguards the body and can be vulnerable to injuries, like cuts. Turmeric and sea cucumber are recognized for their effectiveness in healing wounds The research used natural polymers such as turmeric and sea cucumber, while the synthetic polymer used was polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Electrospinning equipment is used to produce the nanofibres. The variables investigated in this study were the concentrations of PVA, turmeric and sea cucumber. Gamat and curcuma are proven to accelerate wound healing but there is no literature that explains whether they are compatible with PVA in making nanofibres. The nanofibres were analysed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The most optimal nanofiber composition for wound dressing applications is PVA with a concentration of 12%, turmeric 2%, and curcuma 0.5%.
