Hyaline membrane disease (HMD) and feeding intolerance (FI)are still problems of premature neonatal morbidity and mortality. Antenatal steroid administration has been recognized to reduce HMDand FImortality rates, but it is still not optimal and there are still different outcomes in neonates with similar gestational age, birth weight and treatment. Micronutrients of vitamin A, D₃ and zinc are known to play a roleon the lung and intestines of the fetusand neonates. This study aimed to find out the benefits of administration of vitamin A (beta carotene), vitamin D₃ and zinc accompanying antenatal steroids for lung maturation, in order to reduce the incidenceof HMD and FI. A randomized clinical trial was conducted on pregnant women 28-34 weeks of gestational age who were hospitalized for the preparation of preterm delivery on the indication of the mother or fetus. Both groups received dexamethasone for lung maturation. The intervention group received oral micronutrients, i.e., beta carotene 25,000 IU single dose, vitamin D₃ 50,000 IU single dose and 50 mg zinc per day for 3 days. The incidence of HMD, FI, HMD-FI and the relationship of serum retinol, 25(OH)D, zinc concentrationsin maternal and umbilical cord with HMD-FI were analyzed by Chi-Square or Fisher test, unpaired t or Mann Whitney test and paired t or Wilcoxon test between the intervention and control groups. The total subjects were 116 pairs of pregnant mothers and neonates (58 interventions and 58 controls). The incidence of HMDand FIin neonates in the intervention group were 7 (12.1%) and 9 (16.1%),which weresignificantly lower thanthe control group, 16 (27.5%) and 19 (34.5%). The HMD-FI neonates in the control group had lower serum retinol and 25(OH)D concentrations in maternal and umbilical cord than in the intervention group. Significant differences were only found at 25 (OH) D concentration. Conclusion: The incidence HMD and FI in the neonates intervention group were significantly lower than the control group. There was a relationship betweenserum retinol, 25(OH)D and zinc concentrations with HMD-FI outcome.

Red palm oil (RPO) mengandung antioksidan yang larut dalam lemak seperti karotenoid (α dan β-karoten, likopen), vitamin E (dalam bentuk α, β, dan δ tokotrienol dan tokoferol), dan ubikuinon. Red palm oil (RPO) dapat digunakan sebagai upaya mencegah stunting dan kekurangan gizi karena nilai gizi yang jauh lebih tinggi daripada minyak goreng yang beredar di pasaran. Akan tetapi, belum terdapat banyak studi mengenai pemanfaatan red palm oil (RPO) dalam hal tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memperoleh formula emulsi dari red palm oil (RPO). Sediaan emulsi red palm oil (RPO) dibuat menggunakan 5% sukrosa ester palmitat untuk mengemulsifikasi 5% (F1), 10% (F2), dan 15% (F3) red palm oil (RPO) dengan madu untuk menambah kestabilan, kemudian dilakukan karakterisasi fisik untuk mengetahui stabilitas emulsi selama 12 minggu. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa selama 12 minggu ketiga formula emulsi stabil berdasarkan parameter organoleptis, pH, homogenitas viskositas, ukuran partikel, dan zeta potensial. Hasil uji hedonis pada 30 orang responden menunjukkan bahwa formula F1 paling disukai para responden. Dengan demikian, dalam penelitian ini formula F1 menghasilkan hasil uji yang paling baik. ......Red palm oil (RPO) contains fat-soluble antioxidants such as carotenoids (α and β-carotene, lycopene), Vitamin E (in the form of α, β, and δ tocotrienols and tocopherols), and ubiquinone. Red palm oil (RPO) can be used as an effort to prevent stunting and nutritional deficiencies due to its significantly higher nutritional value compared to cooking oils available in the market. However, there haven't been many studies regarding the utilization of red palm oil (RPO) in this matter. This study aims to obtain an emulsion formula from red palm oil (RPO). The red palm oil (RPO) emulsion preparations were made using 5% sucrose ester palmitate to emulsify 5% (F1), 10% (F2), and 15% (F3) red palm oil (RPO) with honey to enhance stability. Subsequently, a physical characterization was conducted to determine the emulsion's stability over a period of 12 weeks. The results showed that all three emulsion formulas remained stable over the 12-week period based on organoleptic parameters, pH, viscosity homogeneity, particle size, and zeta potential. Hedonic testing results from 30 respondents indicated that Formula F1 was the most preferred by the respondents. Therefore, in this study, Formula F1 yielded the best test results.

Karotenoid adalah pigmen alami tidak larut air yang terkenal karena bersifat antioksidan dan merupakan prekursor vitamin A. Beta-karotena merupakan provitamin A terbaik yang umum digunakan dalam industri sebagai pigmen oranye-merah untuk membuat berbagai produk makanan. Pada penelitian ini beta-karotena diekstraksi dari mikroalga dengan jenis spirulina yang ditumbuhkan pada media zarrouk dengan penambahan limbah sawit dalam berbagai persentase. Kandungan karotenoid dalam mikroalga diekstraksi dengan menggunakan metode maserasi dengan pelarut etanol, metanol, heksana, dan diklorometana. Berdasarkan hasil FESEM, terdapat perubahan ukuran granula pada mikroalga yang ditumbuhkan dalam variasi persentase limbah sawit (POME) sebagai media. Diklorometana merupakan pelarut ekstraksi terbaik berdasarkan hasil penentuan kadar beta-karotena dengan spektrofotometer Vis. Persentase limbah sawit dalam media berbanding terbalik dengan kadar beta-karoten dalam mikroalga. Limbah sawit pada media mikroalga menghambat pembentukan pigmen dan menurunkan aktivitas antioksidan ekstrak, berdasarkan metode DPPH. ......Carotenoids are natural, insoluble pigments that are famous for their antioxidant properties and are precursors of vitamin A. Beta-carotene is the best pro-vitamin A which is commonly used in industry as an orange-red pigment to make various food products. In this study, beta-carotene was extracted from microalgae, spirulina, grown in zarrouk media with the addition of palm oil waste in various percentages. Carotenoid content in microalgae was extracted using the maceration method with ethanol, methanol, hexane and dichloromethane solvents. Based on FESEM results, there were changes in microalgae granule size that grown in variety percentages of palm oil waste (POME) as medium. Dichloromethane was the best extraction solvent based on the results of determining beta- carotene content using a Vis spectrophotometer. The percentage of palm waste in the media was inversely proportional to the beta-carotene content in microalgae. Palm waste in microalgae medium inhibits pigment formation and reduces antioxidant activity, based on the DPPH method.

Ruang Lingkup dan Cara Penelitian: Di Indonesia angka kematian karena kanker terus meningkat dari 1,45 dalam tahun 1972 menjadi 4,4% dalam tahun 1992. Dari studi prospektif dan retrospektif diketahui bahwa karotenoid mengurangi risiko mendapatkan kanker payudara, (β -karoten adalah salah satu karotenoid yang dikandung oleh minyak kelapa sawit (600.000 µg/Kg). Karena cara pengobatan pembedahan, radioterapi dan kemoterapi cukup mahal dan acapkali tidak terjangkau oleh sebagian golongan masyarakat, maka perlu dicari cara lain, di antaranya memanfaatkan β -karoten yang ada dalam minyak kelapa sawit, namun perlu diteliti dosis ekstrak minyak kelapa sawit (EMKS) yang tepat. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian EMKS yang mengandung β -karoten sebanyak 0,02 µg /ml, 0,1 µg/ml dan 0,5 µg /ml terhadap pertumbuhan in vitro set tumor kelenjar susu mencit C3H. Digunakan 5 kelompok masing-masing 6 ulangan yang terdiri atas 3 kelompok uji dan 2 kelompok kelola (kelola babas dan kelola pelarut). Selain itu dilakukan pula penelitian secara in vivo dengan dosis 1000 µg/0,1 ml dan 2000 µg/0,1 ml per hari selama 21 hari dengan menggunakan 24 ekor mencit yang dibagi dalam 2 kelompok kelola dan 2 kelompok uji. Hasil dan Kesimpulan: Dengan melakukan analisis varian pada hasil penelitian diketahui tidak ada perbedaan yang bermakna antara kelompok kelola dan kelompok uji dosis 0,02 µg /ml. Kemaknaan terjadi pada dosis 0,1 µg/ml dan 0,5 µg/ml. Ditemukan bahwa makin besar dosis yang diberikan makin kecil rasio pertumbuhan biakan sel tumor. Selain itu analisis varian indek label (IL) BUdR menunjukkan bahwa makin besar dosis EMKS yang diberikan, makin rendah nilai Ilnya. Sedangkan penelitian in vivo dengan dosis 1000 µg/0,1 ml dan 2000 µg/0,1ml tidak memperlihatkan pengaruh EMKS terhadap volume dan berat tumor kelenjar susu mencit C3H. Berdasarkan hal tersebut di atas dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa pemberian EMKS dapat menghambat bertumbuhan sel tumor kelenjar susu mencit C3H secara in vitro pada dosis 0,1 µg/ml dan 0,5 µg/ml. Sedangkan secara in vivo dengan dosis 1000 µg/0,1 ml dan 2000 µg/0,1 ml pertumbuhan se tumor kelenjar susu mencit belum dihambat. Scope and methods of study: The mortality of cancer in Indonesia had been increasing from 1.4% in 1972 to 4.4% in 1992. Through prospective and retrospective studies it was known that carotenoid could lessen the risk for getting breast cancer. 0-carotene was one of the carotenoids contained in palm oil (600.000 µg/Kg). Because the treatment of breast cancer by surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy was rather expensive and often not within reach by part of the people, so other way of treatment should be sought, among others by using f3-carotene in palm oil of which the precise dose should be first determined. This investigation was done to know the effect of putting palm oil extract (POE) containing respectively 0.02 µgl0,/ml; 0.1 µg/0,1ml and 0.5 µg/0,lml on the in vitro growth of C3H mouse mammary tumor cells. Five groups of each six repetitions consisting of three treated and two control groups. Besides an in vivo investigation was done with doses of 1000 µg/0,1 ml and 2000 µg/0,1 ml per day respectively for 21 days, by using 24 mice which was divided into two control and two treatment groups. Result and conclusion: By using variance analysis it was found that there was no significant difference between the control groups and the 0.02 µg/0, l ml treated group; significant difference occurred at groups of 0.1 µg/0, l ml and 0.5 µg/0,1 ml doses. It was found that the bigger the dose given the smaller ratio of tumor cell growth. Beside this it was known also from the variance analysis of the BUdR labeling index that putting palm oil extract on the tumor cell culture lessen the value of the labeling index conform with the dose given. Whereas the in vivo investigation of 0-carotene contained in POE given in doses of 1000 µg/0,1 ml and 2000 µg/0,1 ml showed no significant difference on the tumor volume and tumor weights between the control and treatment groups. Based on the above investigation was concluded that treatment with POE containing 0-carotene in doses of 0.1 µg/0,1 ml and 0.5 µg10, l ml could inhibit the in vitro growth of C3H mouse mammary tumor cells. While with doses of 1000 µg/0,1 ml and 2000 µg/0,1 ml the in vivo growth of mouse mammary tumor cells had not inhibited yet.

Penyakit paru obstruksif kronik PPOK merupakan penyakit paru dengan karakteristik hambatan aliran udara yang progresif, karena peningkatan reaksi peradangan kronik berlebihan pada saluran napas dan parenkim paru. Stres oksidatif terutama akibat pajanan rokok dalam jangka waktu lama berperan sentral pada patogenesis PPOK. Beta karoten suatu karotenoid punya peran pada stres oksidatif dengan kemampuan mereduksi paling tinggi dan lebih efisien mengikat radikal yang berasal dari dalam dinding liposom pada kompartemen lipofilik dinding sel. Di Indonesia bahan makanan sumber β-karoten mudah didapat. Penelitian ini bertujuan mencari hubungan antara kadar β-karoten dan MDA serum pada penderita PPOK. Penelitian pontong lintang ini mengikutsertakan 47 penderita PPOK melalui metode consecutive sampling. Data sosio-demografi, riwayat merokok, asupan β-karoten secara FFQ semikuantitatif diperoleh dengan wawancara. Data skor CAT, kekerapan kekambuhan dan uji fungsi paru terbaru didapatkan dari rekam medik. Dilakukan pengukuran IMT, kadar MDA serum dengan spektrofotometri dan β-karoten serum dengan HPLC. Subjek paling banyak berusia 60-74 tahun, bekas perokok, dengan IMT normal. Asupan dan kadar ?-karoten serum rendah pada sebagian besar 63,8 subjek. Kadar MDA serum cenderung lebih tinggi daripada orang sehat, menandakan adanya penngkatan stres oksidatif pada penderita PPOK. Tidak didapatkan adanya korelasi antara kadar β-karoten dan MDA serum. ......Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD is a lung disease, characterized by progressive air flow resistance, which increase chronic inflammatory reactions of the airways and lung parenchyma. A history of exposure to risk factors, especially smoking, for long term contribute to the central role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of COPD. Beta carotene as one of the antioxidants may play a role in oxidative stress among COPD patients, carotene's food source is abandon in Indonesia. This cross sectional study aimed to investigate relationship between levels of serum carotene and MDA in COPD patients. Consecutive sampling was applied to recruit 47 COPD subjects, who mainly subjects elderly with history of heavy smoking. Socio demographic data, smoking history, intake of carotene by semiquantitative FFQ was obtained by interview. CAT score, frequency of exacerbations and lung function tests were obtained from medical records. Nutritional status by BMI, concentration of carotene by HPLC and MDA serum by spectrophotometry were assessed. More than 50 subjects'carotene intake and serum level were lower than reference. Serum MDA level was higher than healthy person's, indicating an increase oxidative stress among COPD patients. There was no correlation between serum carotene and MDA levels.

Beta carotene has antioxidant capacity. Malondialdehyde (MDA), a poly unsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) peroxidation product, is the marker of oxidative stress. The balance of oxidant and antioxidant in breastmilk helps prevent the free radical formation in babies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the correlation of beta carotene intake with the breast milk (BM) beta carotene level and to determine the relationship between beta carotene intake with the MDA level in BM. Eighty 20–40 years old exclusively breastfeeding mothers who came to Cilincing and Grogol Petamburan Public Health Centre in February–April 2019 and had 1–6 months old babies were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. The BM were assessed the laboratory. Weak positive correlation was found between body mass index (BMI) and BM MDA level (r = 0.285, p = 0.010) as well as beta carotene intake and BM MDA level (r = 0.247, p = 0.027). Medium negative correlation was found between breastfeeding duration in weeks with the BM MDA level (r = - 0.469, p <0.001). Physical activity has a relationship with BM beta carotene level (p = 0.012). Therefore, BMI, breastfeeding duration, beta carotene intake has a correlation with BM MDA level.

Ekspor Crude Palm Oil (CPO) merupakan penyumbang devisa negara terbesar dari sektor non-migas bagi Indonesia hingga saat ini dan terus meningkat dari tahun ke tahun. Nilai jual ekspor CPO berpotensi untuk ditingkatkan, yaitu dengan cara mengembangkan hasil produksi hulu (CPO) menjadi hasil industri hilir seperti β-karoten. Karena manfaatnya yang banyak, saat ini β-karoten semakin dibutuhkan oleh industri pangan, kosmetik, analisis, dan kesehatan. Di sisi lain, β-karoten justru sengaja dihilangkan dari pengolahan minyak sawit karena memberikan warna gelap (kotor) yang tidak disukai konsumen. Maka, pemisahan β-karoten dari minyak sawit kasar perlu dilakukan. Metode ekstraksi pelarut merupakan metode pemisahan yang paling sesuai untuk karakteristik β- karoten dari minyak sawit, dimana dilakukan tanpa pemanasan yang tinggi yang dapat merusak kandungan β-karoten tersebut. Sebelum melakukan ekstraksi β-karoten dari minyak sawit kasar, diperlukan data kesetimbangan untuk mengetahui karakteristik sistem yang akan dipakai. Sejauh ini data kesetimbangan cair-cair untuk sistem ekstraksi β-karoten dari minyak sawit dengan pelarut organik belum ditemukan. Hasil yang didapatkan dari penelitian ini adalah data neraca massa, kurva koefisien distribusi (K), dan kurva selektivitas (β) dengan variasi rasio massa isopropanol/CPO 0,2 sampai 1,6. Didapatkan kurva Kβ-karoten dimana nilai Kβ-karoten pada variasi terkecil 0,7939 dan terbesar 3,4457. Sedangkan kurva ββ-karoten juga didapatkan dengan nilai ββ-karoten pada variasi terkecil 0,7980 dan terbesar 3,6659. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meningkatnya jumlah Isopropanol yang digunakan akan meningkatkan jumlah β-karoten yang terekstrak. Selain itu didapatkan pula bahwa isopropanol kurang selektif dalam menyerap β-karoten dari CPO

Export Crude Palm Oil (CPO) is the largest foreign exchange earner from non-oil sector for Indonesia until now and the value steadily increased year to year. CPO`s value has the potential to be improved. One of way is developing the upstream product (CPO) become downstream product such as β-carotene. Because of its benefits, currently β-carotene required by food industry, cosmetic industry, analysis industry, and healthcare industry. On the other hand, β-carotene is removed during the process of palm oil. The purpose is to eliminate the dark colour of the palm oil that the consumen does not like it. Thus, the separation of β-carotene from crude palm oil needs to be done. Solvent extraction is the most appropriate method for the separation β-carotene from palm oil, since without high temperatur that can damage the content of β-carotene. Before perform the β-carotene extraction from crude palm oil, equilibrium data are needed to determine the characteristics of the system that will be used. Until now, the data of liquid-liquid equilibrium for system of β-carotene extraction from CPO with an organic solvent have not been found. The results of this research are the mass balance data, distribution curve and selectivity curve, with the variation of the mass ratio of isopropanol/CPO 0.2 to 1.6. Kβ-karoten obtained, that the value of smallest variation is 0.7939 and the largest is 3.4457. While the ββ-karoten is also obtained, with the smallest variation is 0.7980 and the largest is 3.6659. The result showed that by increasing the amount of isopropanol, it will increase the amount of β-carotene that extracted. But, other showed that isorpopanol is less selective in absorbing β-carotene from CPO.
