"The present study investigates the aqueous stability of polyethylene glycol and oleic acid- based anionic surfactants through the dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential methods, for application in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). Polyethylene glycol dioleate sulfonate (PDOS) surfactant solutions were prepared in concentrations of 0.05, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 1 wt% in deionized water. Aqueous stability of PDOS was assessed by measuring the droplet size over five days, using nano particle analyzer HORIBA SZ-100 at 25oC. Results show that good aqueous stability of PDOS was achieved at concentrations of 0.1 to 1 wt%, but with the droplet size becoming unstable at the lowest concentration of 0.05 wt%. The polydispersity indices were classified into polydisperse distribution type recorded as 0.3 to 0.5 at concentrations of 0.05 and 0.1 wt% and 0.2 at concentrations of 0.3 to 1 wt%. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of PDOS was 0.3% and the interfacial tension of PDOS surfactant above the CMC was around 10-3 dyn/cm. The zeta potential of PDOS surfactant without the addition of salt in concentrations of 0.05, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, and 1 wt% was highly stable up to -96.8, -90.5, -89.6, -82.3, and -64.4 mV, respectively. With the addition of salt they were moderately stable at a concentration of 1 wt%. The conductivity increased with increasing concentration. The zeta potential of PDOS with the addition of salt was moderately stable in a concentration of 1%. Although PDOS with concentration of 0.05% showed a high value of zeta potential with the addition of salt, there is no guarantee that the PDOS surfactant solution will be stable for five days."

"Senyawa 3-monochloropropanediol atau 3-MCPD merupakan senyawa kontaminan pada minyak goreng, yang menyebabkan resiko pada kesehatan manusia, karena bersifat karsiogenik. EU regulation telah membuat aturan maksimal 3-MCPD pada makanan yaitu 2,5ppm. Pengujian kandungan 3-MCPD yang telah ada saat ini, berbasis kromatografi gas, namun mahal, kompleks, dan membutuhkan operator yang berkualifikasi. Pendeteksian senyawa 3-MCPD menggunakan nanopartikel berbasis kolorimetri mendapat perhatian, salah satunya nanopartikel logam yang memiliki sifat sensitif terhadap senyawa yang dideteksi. Pada penelitian ini, deteksi dilakukan dengan nanopartikel tembaga dengan L-sistein sebagai capping agent. Sintesis nanopartikel tembaga dilakukan dengan berbagai variasi untuk mendapatkan hasil yang optimal seperti stokiometri, atmosfer, dan pengenceran. Pita LSPR nanopartikel tembaga dengan ligan L-sistein (Cys-CuNPs) diamati menggunakan UV-visible (UV-Vis). Selanjutnya karakterisasi Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) dan dynamic light scattering (DLS) dilakukan untuk mengamati interaksi antara nanopartikel tembaga dengan L-sistein serta ukuran partikel Cys-CuNPs. Selanjutnya penelitian ini, dilakukan evaluasi sensitivitas nanopartikel Cys-CuNPs terhadap 3-MCPD

3-Monochloropropanediol (3-MCPD) is a contaminant in edible oil that can pose a risk to human health, because it is carcinogenic. EC regulations have set a maximum limit of 2,5ppm of 3-MCPD on food. The current assay of three-MCPD, based on gas chromatography, is expensive, complex, and requires a qualified operator. The detection of 3-MCPD compound using nanoparticles with colorimetric based has received attention, one of which is metal nanoparticles with sensitive to the detected compounds. In this research, detection was carried out with copper nanoparticles with L-cysteine as a capping agent. The synthesis of copper nanoparticles has been tried with various variations to obtain optimal results such as stoichiometry, atmosphere, and dilution. LSPR bands of copper nanoparticles with L-Cysteine (Cys-CuNPs) were observed using UV-Visible (UV-Vis). In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were employed to study the interactions between copper nanoparticles and L-cysteine, as well as the particle size of Cys-CuNPs. Furthermore, the sensitivity of Cys-CuNPs to 3-MCPD was evaluated."
