The Analysis on the Chlorine Contents in Rice Circulation in Pasar Besar of Malang as the Biological Learning Resource

This research aimed to investigate the chlorine contents in rice circulation in Pasar Besar of which findings were supposed to be applicable as Biological learning resource. This research was officially conducted at March 29 – April 6 2016 in Putra Indonesia Malang Laboratory. This research was of descriptively quantitative design since the main aim of this research was to describe the chlorine contents in rice. The sampling technique engaging regarding this research was purposive sampling with two repetitions in total. The sample of rice that was going to be analyzed was originally from Pasar Besar comprised 19 types (considering the brands), they were: Piala, Mentari, Padi Wangi, Bintang Biru, Rosita Super, Kancil, Bintang Mas, Bulan Mas, Puteri, Lombok, Maknyus, Apel, Manggis, Mangga, Cucak Rowo, Beras Padi, Raja Boga dan Monas. In addition, the methods accommodated in terms of testing the reaction included testing the color reaction test, testing the iodometric titration, and measuring the average percentage of chlorine contents in the whole sample. Moreover, this research revealed that the 19 types sample of rice taken from Pasar Besar is 0 % or negative of chlorine contents. Consequently, they were safe to consume

Banjir Bandang di DAS Batang Kuranji Kec. Kuranji Kotapadang dengan Sistem Informasi Geografis (Sig)

The research aims to map hazard flash flood sand Inundation mapping the spatial distribution(affected by) flash floods and analyze the factors causing flash floods in Batang Kuranji Watershed Sub- District Kuranji Padang. The method used is a 3D analysis of data raster DEM, topographic slope, Slope, flood elevation data, and river network data, for mapping the spatial distribution affected by the flash floods using survey methods to map land units as mapping unit. GPS tracking is then performedin the field to produce spatial distribution maps Inundation (affected by) flash floods and flash floods causing factor data were analyzed using the scoring methodo fland characteristics as determinants offlash flood hazard. From this research, the proportion of flood hazard zones with high hazard category with abroad zone of 1320 ha, or 6,15% of the region Batang Kuranji. Medium hazard zones are an area of 1243 ha or 5,7% of the region Batang Kuranji, and low hazard zones in the study region has an area of 18 885ha with aproportion of 88,15% of the total land area ofresearch Batang Kuranji and spatial distribution of the inundations flash floods in the area along Kuranji watershed in Koto Tangah subdistrict, Kuranji subdistrict, Nanggalo subdistrict, North Padang subdistrict, and Pauh subdistrict. Causing factor flash flood in the research area are mass movement that of caused landform, slope, slopeform, long of slope, and geomorphology process

Effect of Peppermint Oil on the Characteristics and Physical Stability of Nanostructured Lipid Carrier-CoQ10

Peppermint oil (PO) is one of the essential oils used as a enhancer in nanostructured lipid carriers (NLC), which affects the characteristics and stability of NLC. This study was aimed at determining the effect of PO on the characteristics and stability of NLC-coenzyme Q10 (NLC-CoQ10). NLC containing 1% CoQ10 was added to various concentrations (0, 1, 1.5, and 2%) of PO, namely F1-F4, respectively. The characteristics (odour, shape, viscosity, pH, particle size, and polydispersity index) of F1, F2, F3, and F4 were determined. Physical stability, centrifugation, and thermal cycle tests were performed. The results showed that adding 1-2% PO caused NLC-CoQ10 to have a distinctive PO odour, a spherical shape, and viscosity values of 329.1±10.5, 307.6±27.4, 220.4±4.0, and 219.9±2.2 cps for F1, F2, F3, and F4, respectively. The pH values ranged from 6.33 to 6.36, while the particle sizes were 188.25±13.22, 197.80±14.19, 190.90±9.47, and 187.50±8.71 nm, respectively. The polydispersity index was below 0.3; and the zeta potential values ranged from –44.30 mV to –52.74 mV. F1, F2, and F3 remained stable after 30 days, whereas F4 became more fluid. The formulas performed well in a centrifuge test. The F2, F3, and F4 thermal cycle tests were all stable, but the F1 separated in the first cycle. The addition of 1, 1.5, and 2% PO did not affect the spherical morphology, the pH value, particle size, or the polydispersity index. The addition of 1.5 and 2% PO reduced viscosity, while the addition of 1 and 1.5% reduced zeta potential but increased stability

Kenali, Cegah dan Atasi Dislipidemia Recognize, Prevent, and Eradicate Dyslipidemia

Dislipidemia adalah kelainan metabolisme lipid yang ditandai dengan peningkatan maupun penurunan satu atau lebih fraksi lipid dalam darah. Peningkatan kadar kolesterol total dan LDL darah dapat disebabkan oleh peningkatan konsumsi lemak jenuh dan kolesterol yang tinggi dalam makanan. Pada perjalanan dislipidemia, apabila kadar kolesterol tidak terkontrol dengan baik, maka akan meningkatkan risiko terjadi nya komplikasi baik akut maupun kronis. Pada umumnya, sebagian masyarakat telah mengenal perihal kolesterol secara umum namun mungkin belum memahami bagaimana cara mencegah dan mengatasi kadar kolesterol darah yang tinggi. Edukasi yang baik disertai terapi nutrisi, jasmani dan tatalaksana farmakologi diharapkan dapat mengendalikan progresifitas penyakit dislipidemia dan komplikasinya. Oleh karena itu pengabdian masyarakat berbasis webinar ini diadakan selain untuk meningkatkan keilmuan, juga diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kesadaran akan bahaya dari penyakit dislipidemia. Kegiatan webinar ini menargetkan mahasiswa UTA45 dan masyarakat umum dengan luaran yang diharapkan yaitu dapat meningkatkan pengetahuan tentang penyakit dislipidemia. Webinar dengan metode presentasi dan tanya jawab yang dilaksanakan pada 27 April 2022. Total peserta yang mengikuti kegiatan webinar dengan mengisi absen secara online sebanyak 66 peserta. Persentase rata – rata total skor prestest perserta sebesar 70,2% dan rata – rata skor posttest sebesar 79,6% dapat dilihat bahwa terjadi peningkatan skor posttest sebesar 9,4%

Media Perkecambahan Benih Tumbuhan Kayu Gula (Aphanamixis Polystachya (Wall.) R.n. Parker)

Kayu gula (Aphanamixis polystachya (Wall) R.N. Parker) merupakan tumbuhan berkhasiat obat yang banyak digunakan untuk pengobatan herbal. Daerah penyebaran kayu gula adalah Tiongkok, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, New Guinea dan Kepulauan Solomon. Namun saat ini pohon kayu gula semakin sulit ditemukan sehingga perlu dibudidayakan dengan melakukan penanaman. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui jenis media yang terbaik dalam perkecambahan benih kayu gula (A. polystachya). Penelitian dilakukan di persemaian Pusat Penelitian dan Pengembangan Hutan Bogor. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode eksperimental menggunakan rancangan acak lengkap faktor tunggal dengan tiga ulangan. Faktor media terdiri dari: tanah, pasir, tanah + sekam padi (2:1) dan tanah + arang (2:1). Parameter yang diamati adalah: daya tumbuh, kecepatan berkecambah, kadar air benih dan nilai kecambah. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa penggunaan media pasir memiliki kecepatan perkecambahan dan nilai kecambah tertinggi (14,00% per etmal dan 13,80%) sedangkan penggunaan media tanah memiliki kecepatan perkecambahan dan nilai kecambah terendah (32,33 % per etmal dan 7,52%). Selain itu daya kecambah benih berkisar antara 64,67% (pada media tanah) - 91,33 % ( pada media campuran tanah dan sekam padi)
