"Mayoritas cangkang kapsul hingga tahun 2014 masih berbahan gelatin yang bersumber dari kulit dan tulang babi. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, riset cangkang kapsul nabati mulai berkembang dengan berbahan dasar ekstrak rumput laut seperti karagenan, alginat, HPMC, dan pektin. Cangkang kapsul nabati yang sudah ada perlu diberi penambahan polihidroksibutirat (PHB), sebuah biopolimer yang tahan suhu tinggi, tahan pH ekstrem, biodegradable, biocompatible, hingga cocok untuk slow release. Metode isolasi dari S. platensis yang paling simpel dan ekonomis dengan tahapan umum berupa disrupsi sel, presipitasi PHB, dan pemurnian PHB. Sodium hipoklorit adalah pelarut pendisrupsi sel yang banyak digunakan untuk isolasi PHB dari mikroalga sedangkan sodium hidroksida bisa digunakan untuk isolasi PHB dari E. coli. Parameter yang diuji dalam penelitian ini adalah konsentrasi sel sampel S. platensis serta rasio konsentrasi pelarut NaClO dan NaOH yang ditambahkan. Metode identifikasi PHB adalah FTIR, kuantifikasi PHB dengan menghitung massa dan yield PHB secara manual, lalu mengestimasi perbandingan nilai ekonomi proses isolasi pada tiap variabel. Pada kondisi pelarut NaClO 0,0265 M, hasil dengan yield terbaik ditunjukkan pada variasi 0,04 g/mL dengan massa PHB 2 x 10-3 g dan yield 0,16 %. Hasil dengan keuntungan tertinggi adalah variasi konsentrasi sampel 0,06 g/mL dengan yield 0,12%. Penggunaan NaOH sebagai tambahan rasio pelarut meningkatkan pH larutan dengan terlalu drastis sehingga mengurangi efektivitas isolasi PHB oleh NaClO.

The majority of capsule shells until 2014 are still made from gelatin sourced from pork skin and bones. To overcome this problem, research on vegetable capsule shells began to develop based on seaweed extracts such as carrageenan, alginate, HPMC, and pectin. Existing vegetable capsule shells need to be added with polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), a biopolymer that is high temperature resistant, extreme pH resistant, biodegradable, biocompatible, and suitable for slow release. The simplest and most economical method of isolation from S. platensis with general stages is cell disruption, PHB precipitation, and PHB purification. Sodium hypochlorite is a cell disrupting solvent that is widely used for extraction of PHB from microalgae while sodium hydroxide can be used for extraction of PHB from E. coli. The parameters tested in this study were the concentration of S. platensis sample cells and the ratio of NaClO and NaOH solvent concentrations added. The PHB identification method is FTIR, PHB quantification by calculating mass and PHB yield manually, then estimating the comparison of the economic value of the extraction process for each variable. In the conditions of NaClO 0.0265 M, the best yield results were shown in the variation of 0.04 g/mL with a mass of PHB 2 x 10-3 g and a yield of 0.16%. The results with the highest gain are variations in sample concentration of 0.06 g/mL with yields of 0.12%. The use of NaOH in addition to the solvent ratio increases the pH of the solution too drastically thereby reducing the effectiveness of PHB isolation by NaClO."

"Penggunaan kemasan makanan yang semakin meningkat membuat sampah plastik menjadi isu lingkungan terbesar. Semenjak penggunaan plastik konvensional berasal dari polimer fossil, sehingga sulit diuraikan oleh bakteri. Solusi yang tepat adalah menggantikanya dengan bioplastik. Penelitian ini menggunakan Chlorella vulgaris sebagai produsen Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) karena PHB memiliki karakteristik seperti biodegradabilitas, termoplastisitas, hidrofobik dan biokompatibilitas dengan sel dan jaringan, serta sifat fisik serupa dengan polypropylene yang berpotensi dalam aplikasinya di bidang pengemasan makanan, farmasi dan medis. PHB didapatkan dengan cara mengisolasi biomassa dari Chlorella vulgaris. Penelitian ini akan mempelajari metode isolasi PHB menggunakan metode disrupsi sel secara kimia dan mekanis yaitu dengan NaClO dan sonikasi dengan variasi konsentrasi massa dan konsentrasi pelarut. Metode isolasi dari C. vulgaris yang paling sederhana dan ekonomis adalah dengan tahapan umum berupa disrupsi sel, presipitasi PHB, dan pemurnian PHB. Metode kuantifikasi PHB yaitu dengan menghitung yield PHB, lalu identifikasi PHB dengan FTIR, dan menguji kualitas senyawa PHB terbaik dengan GCMS. Parameter yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah yield, hasil fisik PHB, dan hasil uji PHB. Pada kondisi konsentrasi sampel 0,6% w/v dan konsentrasi pelarut 1,37 % w/v menggunakan ultrasonikasi didapatkan hasil akhir PHB isolasi terbaik yaitu dengan yield 37,2%.

The increasing use of food packaging makes plastic waste the biggest environmental issue. Since the use of conventional plastic comes from fossil polymers, so it is difficult to be decomposed by bacteria. The right solution is to replace it with bioplastics. This study uses Chlorella vulgaris as a producer of Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) because PHB has characteristics such as biodegradability, thermoplasticity, hydrophobicity and biocompatibility with cells and tissues, and physical properties similar to polypropylene which has the potential in its application in food, pharmaceutical and medical packaging. PHB is obtained by isolating biomass from Chlorella vulgaris. This research will study the method of PHB isolation using chemical and mechanical cell disruption methods, namely NaClO and sonication with variations in mass concentration and solvent concentration. The simplest and most economical method of isolation of C. vulgaris is the general stages of cell disruption, PHB precipitation, and PHB purification. The method of quantifying PHB is by calculating the yield of PHB, then identification of PHB by FTIR, and testing the quality of the best PHB compounds by GCMS. The parameters used in this study are yield, PHB physical results, and PHB test results. In the condition of 0.6% w/v sample concentration and 1.37% w/v solvent concentration using ultrasonication, the best PHB isolation yield was 37.2%. GCMS sample results showed the presence of n-hexadecanoic acid (palmitic acid), 9-Octadecanoic acid (oleic acid), 2- Palmitoylglycerol, and Octadecanoic acid (stearic acid) as the main compounds that could potentially be bioplastic materials."

"Latar Belakang: Irigasi endodontik konsentrasi tinggi Natrium Hipoklorit (NaOCl) 5% telah banyak dilaporkan menurunkan viabilitas sel punca pulpa (hDPSCs) namun merupakan bahan irigasi pilihan untuk perawatan endodontik. Sehingga dibutuhkan larutan lain untuk menetralkan efek NaOCl seperti Sodium thiosulfate (STS) yang bersifat antioksidan agar potensi anti mikroba NaOCl tetap baik namun tidak mempengaruhi viabilitas sel punca pulpa. Tujuan: Mengetahui efek penggunaan STS 5% setelah paparan NaOCl 1,5% dan NaOCl 5%-PBS-EDTA 17%-PBS dengan variasi paparan waktu terhadap viabilitas hDPSCs. Metode: Sel primer hDPSCs yang telah 80% confluent dan mencapai P3-P4 dilakukan starvation 24 jam, diberikan perlakuan berupa NaOCl-PBS-STS 5%-EDTA 17%-PBS, DMEM sebagai kontrol negatif dan NaOCl 1,5% serta 5% sebagai kontrol positif. Pengamatan viabilitas sel punca pulpa dengan uji flowcitometry MTT-assay. Hasil: Perbandingan antara kelompok NaOCl 5% terhadap kelompok NaOCl 5% - STS 5% 60’ berbeda tidak bermakna (p>0,5) namun nilai viabilitas kelompok NaOCl 5% - STS 5% 60’ lebih tinggi dibanding kelompok NaOCl 5%. Kesimpulan: Sodium thiosulfate sebagai agen antioksidan dan penetralisir NaOCl cukup efektif dalam mempertahankan viabilitas sel punca pulpa pada konsentrasi NaOCl 5% dengan paparan waktu 60’.

ABSTRACTSelective reduction of nickel laterit saprolitic ore with Ni, Fe, MgO, and SiO2 contents 1.71%, 18.93%, 13.4%, and 24.64% respectively, has been conducted with some variated sodium hydroxide and sulphur amounts. Reduction has been done by usingtwo types of reductors, such as lignite and sub-bituminous coal at various reduction temperatures (900oC, 1000oC, and 1100oC) along 60 minutes of reduction timefor each temperatures. Nickel grades increased from 3.91% to 4.2% due to increasing reduction temperature from 900oC to 1100oC. Nickel recovery rose up regarding to increasing temperature from 83% at 900oC to 87% at 1100oC. Sulphur addition gave significant effects on resulted nickel recoveries, from 60% without any addition to 87% with addition of 9% sulphur. Selective reduction with no NaOH addition could only reach 67% of nickel recovery, while 89% nickel could be attained with 16.4% of NaOH. The usage of lignite as solid reductor indicated higher nickel recoveries compared to those with sub-bituminous coal. Selective reduction using sub-bituminous as reductor had maximum nickel grade at 67%. Meanwhile, 89% of nickel recovery could be achieved with employing lignite as solid reductor.Some phases formed after reduction of saprolitic nickel ore with sodium hydroxide addition, such as forsterite (Mg2SiO4), olivine (Mg,Fe)2SiO4, taenite (FeNi), dan natrium silikat (Na2Si2O5). Whereas, sulphur had important role in the formation of iron-rich silicate (pyroxene) phase and impediment of the crystallization of olivine and forsterite phases that inhibit nickel and iron oxides to be reduced. According to backscatter imagesby SEM, fact that sulphur can induce the metallic grain agglomeration is also found. The grain size with excessive sulphur addition (9%) is 50μm, while the addition of only 0.5% sulphur had maximum metallic grain size by 5μm"

ABSTRACTDue to constant contact between denture surface and oral environment, denture surfacesusually act as a reservoir for microorganism, especially C. albicans. Proper cleaningtechnique is needed to inhibit the growth of C. albicans. Soaking denture in a chemicalsolution is known as the simplest and the most effective way to maintain a cleandenture. The widely used substances to soak the dentures are alkaline peroxide andsodium hypochlorite. There have been numerous researches done on the effectivenessof soaking solution against C. albicans, but there is some contradiction on theeffectiveness of alkaline peroxide as a denture cleanser especially for thermoplasticnylon material. Soaking denture in high concentration of sodium hypochlorite during along period of time can deteriorate the texture and color of denture surface. Thepurpose of this study is to analyzed the effectiveness of low concentration sodiumhypochlorite 0.125% in inhibiting the growth of C.albicans on thermoplastic nylon withvariables in soaking duration and different soaking solution such as 0.5% sodiumhypochlorite and alkaline peroxide. This is an experimental laboratory study. The studyis conducted using 24 thermoplastic nylon plate specimens with surface roughness testconducted before the immersion procedure. The specimens were exposed to C. albicansand soaked in 3 different cleaning solutions (0.125% sodium hypochlorite, 0.5% sodiumhypochlorite, and alkaline peroxide) for 5 minutes and 10 minutes. Afterwards, thespecimens were cultured in SDA medium and kept inside incubator for 48 hours, andthe colonies of C. albicans formed in the SDA medium were counted. Statisticalanalysis showed there was no significancy mean differences between 0.125% sodiumhypochlorite with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite for 5 and 10 minutes soaking duration(p=1.000). But there was a mean difference between 0.125% sodium hypochlorite andalkaline peroxide, with smaller mean value in 0.125% sodium hypochlorite in both 5and 10 minutes soaking duration (p=0.014). The result showed that 0.125% sodiumhypochlorite was the most effective solution in inhibiting the growth of C. albicans onnylon thermoplastic in 5 minutes soaking duration."

"Indonesian Journal of Dentistry 2006; Edisi Khusus KPPIKG XIV: 51-56An important phase in endodontic treatment is the irrigation of the root canal system. Desirable function of irrigation are antimicrobial activity, dissolution of necrotic tissue and nontoxicity to the periradicular tissue. Toxicity of NaOCl solution on vital tissue is still controversial. Severe compilations may occur if this solution is inadvertently exposed to the oral mucosa, and it is very hazardous. The purpose of this paper is to caution dentists on the hazards of using NaOCl irrigation in endodontic treatment. A case is presented in which 2.5% NaOCL solution was accidentally streaming into patient's throat because the irrigating needle was not securely attached to the syringe, with the result that the patient had difficulty in breathing. The patient was promptly taken to a pulmonologist, internist, and ENT. The patient was given dexamethasone 10 mg iv injection, delladryl 1cc iv, and nebulizer with 1 ampoule of steroid, 1 ampoule of ventolin and 5cc NaCl 3x within 24 hours, and after 24 hours the condition was increased. From this case it is concluded that the 2.5% NaOCl solution is very alkaline and irritating resulting in edema of the larynx and plugging up of the respiratory system. Clinicians need to be cautious in using NaOCl solution to avoid_endangering the patient's life."
