Diabetes mellitus has become a worldwide burden due to its persistent, chronic hyperglycemia. D-allulose, a monosaccharide sugar with a 180.16 molecular weight, is widely used as a low-calorie sweetener, is not involved in glucose-related metabolism, and thus does not alter insulin and pancreatic function. This study aimed to evaluate the potential role of honey-derived D-allulose in acute and sub-chronic diabetes mellitus. Diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 9 groups and treated with 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 g/kg BW honey-derived D-allulose for 28, 56, and 84 days. Post-prandial blood glucose levels and body weight were measured every 4 weeks. Significant reductions in post-prandial blood glucose levels were observed on days 56 and 84 treatment with 0.1 g/kg BW D-allulose. More significant reductions were observed on days 28, 56, and 84 of treatment with 0.2 or 0.4 g/kg BW D-allulose. Eighty-four days of treatment with 0.4 g/kg BW D-allulose significantly reduced post-prandial blood glucose levels compared to all groups. We identified that honey-derived D-allulose reduced post-prandial blood glucose levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Thus, honey-derived D-allulose may provide beneficial support for diabetic conditions not only as a sweetener but also as a pharmacological treatment.

In the pursuit of environmentally responsible chemical processes, we conducted a thorough assessment of the green metrics associated with the Cannizzaro reaction using p-anisaldehyde and benzaldehyde under solvent-free conditions. This research elaborates the application of two different methods i.e., reflux and ultrasonication, applying potassium hydroxide (KOH) as the reagent. The progress of the Cannizzaro reaction was methodically followed via thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and the resulting products were characterized using various techniques, including melting point analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). To measure the environmental impact and sustainability of these reactions, a multifaceted approach was used. Green metrics were evaluated by the state-of-the-art Environmental Assessment Tool for Organic Syntheses (EATOS) software, combined with the Andraos algorithm. Moreover, energy consumption calculations were evaluated. Reasonable analysis of the green metrics results was undertaken in the framework of prevailing literature, permitting to measure the level of eco-friendliness attained. Experimental findings revealed optimal conditions for the Cannizzaro reaction concerning p-anisaldehyde at a temperature of 50 °C for 90 minutes, resulting in remarkable of p-anisyl alcohol and p-anisic acid in 95.16% and 95.04% yields, respectively. Likewise, the reaction involving benzaldehyde reached its peak performance at 50 °C for 2 hours, giving benzyl alcohol and benzoic acid in 96.17% and 97.22% yields, respectively. Overall, the green metrics assessment and energy consumption calculations reliably confirmed that the solvent-free Cannizzaro reaction, when performed via ultrasonication, offers a reasonably greener and more energy-efficient method than the traditional ones. This research highlights the importance of sustainable chemical synthesis practices and their potential to reduce the environmental footprint of chemical processes.

Soil bacteria from tropical environments play a significant role in resolving various environmental issues, including biodegradation. Exploratory research on biodiversity is crucial to develop and harness the potential of different types of soil bacteria that are highly abundant. The bacterial diversity in landfills is typically high due to the decomposition of organic and inorganic waste, creating a favorable medium for the growth and development of soil bacteria. This study aims to assess the candidates of xenobiotic degrading indigenous bacteria from the Probolinggo City landfill using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) method. The research stages include: 1) sampling, 2) isolation of genomic DNA from samples using the ZymoBIOMICS DNA MiniPrep Kit from Zymo Research, 3) amplification of isolated DNA with primers 16S 27F – 1429R, 4) sequencing the results of DNA amplification with NGS, 5) downstream analysis of the results using software Pavian Krona Tools, and 6) narrative analysis review to identify the candidates of xenobiotic degrading indigenous bacteria. The results show that soil samples from the Probolinggo City landfill exhibited a high diversity of bacterial communities. Based on NGS analysis, 2400 bacterial species were identified, comprising 56 genera, 17 orders, 4 classes, and 4 phyla, with respective abundances of Proteobacteria (70%), Firmicutes (15%), Planctomycetes (2%), and Cyanobacteria (0,3%). Based on the narrative analysis review, several bacteria in the Probolinggo City landfill exhibited potential as: 1) polypropylene-degrading bacteria, including Bacillus cereus, B. licheniformis and B. thuringiensis. 2) styrofoam degrading bacteria, namely Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus firmus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 3) total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) reducing bacteria, including Bacillus megaterium. 4) pesticide degrading bacteria Profenofos and Chlorantraniliprole, including Bacillus stearothermophilus. and 5) tannic acid degrading bacteria, including Pantoea dispersa. These results indicate that the Probolinggo City landfill is a good habitat for various xenobiotic-degrading bacteria, then the isolation of specific bacteria can be designed using an appropriate selective medium.

Emodin (6-methyl-1,3,8-trihydroxyanthraquinone) is a natural anthraquinone derivative with potential pharmacological such as cytotoxic effects. The structure modification could be performed to determine the functional groups that have the role of substance activities. In this study, we modified one hydroxy group in the emodin structure to become dimethyl carbamoyl moiety. Emodin was reacted with dimethyl carbamoyl chloride and potassium carbonate to create 3-dimethyl carbamoyl emodin. The structure of the product was elucidated using mass spectrophotometer (MS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR and C-NMR). These substances were tested for cytotoxicity against HepG2 cell lines using the MTT assay. According to the evaluation, 3-dimethyl carbamoyl emodin is less cytotoxic than emodin. As a result, the hydroxy group at the C3 position of emodin has been identified as a functional component that contributes to its cytotoxic effect.

Sesquiterpenoids are terpenoid-derived compounds formed from three isoprene units with diverse pharmacological activities. Sesquiterpenoids can be obtained from higher plants, such as the genus Aglaia from the Meliaceae family. This study aims to isolate and characterize the structure of sesquiterpenoidsfrom the n-hexane extract of Aglaia pachyphylla Miq stem bark and to determine their cytotoxic activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cells. The n-hexane extract was separated and purified by various chromatography techniques such as vacuum liquid chromatography, normal-phase chromatography, and reversed-phase chromatography to obtain three sesquiterpenoids. The chemical structures of sesquiterpenoids were identified by various spectroscopic analyses such as IR, MS, 1D-NMR, and 2D-NMR and compared with previously reported spectrum data. Three sesquiterpenoids were identified as β-caryophyllene oxide (1), 1β-Hydroxy-4(15),5-eudesmadiene (2), and spathulenol (3). The three compounds were tested against MCF-7 breast cancer cells using the PrestoBlue method. Compound 2 showed the highest cytotoxic activity with an IC50 value of 262,25 µM.

Glyphosate, which has been documented as a contaminant in tea, promotes the proliferation of human breast cancer cells (MCF-7). Tea, on the other hand, includes various antioxidants, including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which may protect against cancer cell proliferation. The purpose of this research is to determine the preventive effect of concentrated brewed green tea on MCF-7 development caused by glyphosate. The glyphosate concentration that promotes MCF-7 development was determined using a serial concentration of glyphosate. Glyphosate concentrations of up to 64 mg/L were shown to have no effect on MCF-7 cell proliferation. Concentrated brewed tea and EGCG 200 mg/L have the potential to suppress MCF-7 cell proliferation in the presence of glyphosate up to 512 mg/L. The combination of glyphosate and concentrated brewed tea or EGCG protects against glyphosate toxicity via altering the expression of tumor suppressor protein (p53).

The impact of extraction methods on the potency of plant extracts is crucial. Bouea macrophylla Griff., a tropical fruit plant rich in phenolic and flavonoid compounds, exhibits strong antioxidant activity. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of maceration and soxhletation extraction techniques on B. macrophylla plants on antioxidant activity in vitro using the method of inhibiting DPPH radical compounds. Ethyl acetate and ethanol solvents were utilized to macerate and soxhlet all parts of the plant. Subsequently, each extract was subjected to quantitative analysis for antioxidant activity, total phenolic, and flavonoid content through UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Quantitative analysis revealed substantial antioxidant activity and notable levels of total phenolic and flavonoid content across all plant parts. The result indicated that although both maceration and soxhletation showed a significant impact on yield (p=0.009) and total flavonoids (p=0.038), significant differences in antioxidant activity (p=0.409) or total phenolics (p=0.874) within the plant extracts of B. macrophylla were not observed at a significance level of 5%.

Synthetic plastics are one of the more significant contributors to waste in the environment. Bioplastic is a type of plastic that is environmentally friendly because it is made from biomass. In this study. brown macroalgae. Padina australis. is one of the potential raw materials found in large quantities in Indonesian waters and used to produce bioplastics with filtration technique. The aim of this study was to synthesis bioplastics using P. australis alginate with glycerol plasticizer.The alginate macroalgae were mixed with glycerol as a plasticizer in the following proportions: 1:15. 1:25. 2:15. and 2:25. with the quality determined through tensile strength measurements. water solubility. and degradation time. On day 12. the tensile strength of P. australis bioplastic was 3.24-7.33 MPa. the water solubility was 61.79-65.19%. and the biodegradability rate was 0.1-20.0%. When the macroalgae alginate and glycerol formulation was 2:25. the best bioplastic film produced had a tensile strength of 7.33 MPa and a water solubility of 61.79%. which was lower than the Indonesia National Standard number 7818/2016 for bioplastic products. P. australis. however. has the potential to be a promising alternative bioplastic product that contributes to the reduction of petroleum-based plastic pollution in the environment. Furthermore. as a preliminary study. it will be improved to meet industrial standards or find the products that match these characteristics.

ZnO-TiO2 semiconductor can be used in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) devices as an alternative to renewable energy. This semiconductor can be synthesized by sol-gel method. The objective of this study is synthesizing the TiO2-doped ZnO nanoparticle semiconductors for DSSC devices with mangosteen peel extract dye. Avocado seeds were extracted with water, as a capping agent in the synthesis of ZnO-TiO2 (TiO2 ratio of 0,3,5,7 and 10% to ZnO). XRD results show the success of ZnO-TiO2 doping, due to the 2θ shift and changes in the crystal lattice. The average crystal size obtained was 33.7972 nm. The SEM results showed that the particle size of ZnO ranged from 45-100 nm. The UV-Vis dye measurements of mangosteen peel extract showed an absorption peak at 296-483 nm wavelength, with a corresponding band gap energy value of 3.04 eV.

This semiconductor can be synthesized by sol-gel method. The objective of this study is synthesizing the TiO2-doped ZnO nanoparticle semiconductors for DSSC devices with mangosteen peel extract dye. Avocado seeds were extracted with water, as a capping agent in the synthesis of ZnO-TiO2 (TiO2 ratio of 0,3,5,7 and 10% to ZnO). XRD results show the success of ZnO-TiO2 doping, due to the 2θ shift and changes in the crystal lattice. The average crystal size obtained was 33.7972 nm. The SEM results showed that the particle size of ZnO ranged from 45-100 nm. The UV-Vis dye measurements of mangosteen peel extract showed an absorption peak at 296-483 nm wavelength, with a corresponding band gap energy value of 3.04 eV.

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a class of fluorescent carbon nanomaterials. Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized in this work from Mustard Leaves (Brassica juncea L) with the Addition of Urea via a microwave-assisted reflux method. This research aims to characterize CQDs' optical properties, energy gap, and emission under UV light computationally and experimentally. The studied optical properties obtained the maximum absorption peak observed from the UV-Vis spectrum of CQDs without urea shown at 233 nm. The UV-Vis spectrum of CQDs with the addition of urea (1 g, 1.5 g, and 2 g urea) has maximum absorption peaks at 424 nm, 422 nm, and 418 nm. The addition of urea causes a shift in the peak of the UV-Vis absorption spectrum towards red wavelengths (redshift). CQDs display bright green emissions when exposed to UV irradiation. In this work, the structures of CQDs of various forms (CQD-24, CQD-54, CQD-24-NH2, CQD-54-NH2) are theoretically studied in detail, and the results present both models (CQD-24, CQD-54) shows that the calculation results are in accordance with the experimental results, namely having a maximum UV-Vis absorption at 233 nm and in the range 200-400 nm. The results of calculations based on experiments show the same trend, namely that with the addition of urea, there is a shift in the absorption peak (redshift). The gap energy obtained also decreased with the addition of urea. CQDs solution emits yellow-green light.
