Semambu (C. surinamense L) plant is a shrub plant that is easy to find. Several terpenoid compounds have been isolated from this plant, previous studies have shown cytotoxic activity of terpenoid class compounds. Terpenoid compounds in a plant are mostly found in essential oils (monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes). So far, there has been no report on the cytotoxic potential of essential oils from the leaves of this plant. It is necessary to isolate the essential oils from C. surinamense L leaves and test their cytotoxic potential. Isolation of essential oil of C. surinamense L leaves was carried out by hydrodistillation method, the oil was obtained in the form of a light yellow liquid with a specific gravity of 0.968 g/mL. Analysis of chemical components with Gas Chromatography-Mass-Spectrometry (GC-MS) through comparison of data from the National Institute of Standards and Technologies (NIST) found that there were 55 compounds (monoterpene and sesquiterpene groups) with six main compounds, namely β-caryophyllene (30.4%), β-sesquiphellandrene (8.46%), 3 carene (8.16%), α-bisabolene (4.05%), α-humulene (4.0%), and epi- bicyclosesquiphellandrene (4.0%). The potential cytotoxic test of essential oil from isolation showed highly cytotoxic activity with the Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BSLT) method against Artemia salina L shrimp larvae with LC50 value of 0.9261 μg/mL and Microculture tetrazolium test (MTT) method against T47D breast cancer cells and HeLa cervix with IC50 values of 12.72 μg/mL and 30.14 μg/mL.

Cucurbitaceae is known as a source of vegetable oil that can be used in the fields of food, medicine, and cosmetics. Several studies showed that vegetable oil from the Cucurbitaceae contains squalene. Squalene is a high-economic value compound that was originally found in shark liver oil. This compound is proven to be very beneficial for health and cosmetics. The objectives of the study are to determine the fatty acid profile and squalene content of cucumber seed oil using the Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) method. Starting with the preparation of cucumber seeds by drying the clean seed in an oven at 60 0C for 1 hour, then the seeds were extracted using 2 methods namely maceration and a continuous extraction method with a soxhlet extractor. The yield of crude oil obtained by the soxhlet extractor is higher than maceration, which was 19.38 ± 0.94%, yellow colour, and distinct aroma, 2% water oil content; oil density of 0.96 g/mL; free fatty acid levels of 3.51%; an acid value of 4.97 mg NaOH/g oil; and peroxide value of 0.82 meq O2/g oil. The results of the GC-MS analysis showed that cucumber oil was composed of 3 main components namely palmitic acid, linoleic acid, and squalene. Keywords: Cucumber seed oil, Cucumis sativus, fatty acids, squalene.

Gouramy (Osphronemus gouramy) has very high economic value and is easy to cultivate. Currently there are about six strains that have been successfully cultivated based on their reproductive ability to produce eggs, namely goose (soang, goose gouramy), jepun (japan, japonica), blue sapphire, paris, bastar (broiler) and porcelain. One of the reasons for these differences in ability is internal factors which can be seen through the identification and expression of the cGnRH gene that each of these gouramy strains have. The cGnRH gene functions in signaling the pituitary gland to secrete the hormone GtH. This study aims to identify sequences and gene expression values resulting from three strains of gouramyat different age levels. The research method used was the exploration of three gouramy strains (soang, jepun, blue sapphire) at different age levels (4 months, 8 months, 12 months), and three gouramy strains were taken for each age level. This research was conducted through several stages, namely organ preparation, isolation, sequence identification and measurement of cGnRH gene expression. Sequence data was analyzed using phylogenetic trees and gene expression was analyzed using One Way ANOVA test. The sequence results showed that the soang strain had a sequence that was more similar to the jepun strain than the blue sapphire strain, and the resulting gene expression showed that the three gouramy strains with three different age levels did not give different results.

Eusideroxylon zwageri Teijsm. & Binn T has been reported to have bioactivity, one of which is the potential as an excellent cytotoxic agent using the BSLT method. So far, stage tests using cancer cells and analysis of the content of secondary metabolites have not been reported, Therefore, it is essential to analyze the content of secondary metabolites using Liquid Chromatography – Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and determination of cytotoxic activity using Brine Shrimp Lethality Test (BLST) mwthod with various solvent polarities. Then separation by bioassay-guided isolation using column chromatography of the active extract assay BSLT. Furthermore, the cytotoxic activity of the active extract and the active isolate was tested against T47D cancer cells with Microculture Tetrazolium (MTT) method. The results of the analysis of the content of secondary metabolites using LC-MS/MS identified senbusine B and 6,7-Dehydroartemisinic acid on hexane extract, while the ethyl acetate extract produced 4 compounds, and 15 compounds were identified in the methanol extract. The results of the cytotoxic activity test using the BSLT method on each extract showed that the hexane extract was the most active, with an LC50 of 17.56 mg/L. Furthermore, the cytotoxic activity of hexane extract against T47D cells showed weak activity with an IC50 value of 237.5 mg/L, while the AB1 sub-fraction showed moderate activity with an IC50 value of 138.4 mg/L. The results of the analysis using HPLC indicated that the active isolate in the form of sub-fraction AB1 contained the compound senbusine B.

Lipases are versatile enzymes with high specificity toward lipid substrate. They have many industrial applications, such as in food, pharmacy, and green fuel. So far, most explored lipases are from microbial and animal sources, whereas those from plants are less studied. The present study aims to characterize ketapang (Terminalia catappa Linn) lipase. The lipase was isolated from germinating ketapang seeds. The activity was determined by hydrolysis of virgin coconut oil (VCO). Biochemical characterization of ketapang lipase includes the optimum temperature, pH, kinetics, metal ions addition, and analysis of substrate specificity. It was shown that ketapang lipase has an optimum temperature of 45 oC, pH 7.5. Ca2+ increases the lipase activity, whereas Na+, K+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, and Cu2+ inhibit ketapang lipase to various extents. A comparison of SDS-PAGE and native-PAGE analysis showed that ketapang lipase consists of several protein subunits. A further test by in-gel assay revealed that the 54 kDa, 35 kDa, two bands at ~16 kDa, and 12 kDa proteins showed lipolytic activity against a-naphthyl palmitate substrate. When tested on various chromogenic fatty acid substrates, ketapang lipase showed the highest specificity against short-chain fatty acids (C4 and C8), despite the fact that ketapang oil seed composes mainly of long fatty acid (C18). Since lipases that have high lipolytic activity toward short fatty acids are considered esterases, the esterase activity of ketapang lipase is yet to be determined.

New benzohydrazone compound, 4-amino-N'-[(1E)-1-(2-hydroxy-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-pyran-3-yl)ethylidene] benzohydrazide (HL1) and its Cu(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) complexes were synthesized. The structures of HL1 and its complexes were elucidated by elemental analysis and IR, UV-Vis, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The infrared spectral data of the complexes revealed that HL1 coordinated with the metal ions through azomethine nitrogen, enolic oxygen and amide carbonyl oxygen atoms, hence, HL1 behaves as a monobasic tridentate ligand. UV-Vis data revealed that Zn(II) and Mn(II) complexes adopted octahedral geometry, while Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes had five-coordinate and square-planar geometries respectively. The mass spectra data and elemental analysis values are in accordance with the calculated values for the suggested molecular formula of the complexes, a confirmation of the 1:1 ligand to metal stoichiometry in case of Cu(II) complex and 2:1 ligands to metal stoichiometry in case of the other complexes.

This paper reports the improved microwave (MW) absorption characteristics of some newly prepared bio-silica-barium-ferrite composites (SBFCs) of the form (x)Bio-SiO2:(80-x)Fe2O3:(20) BaO (where x = 0, 2, and 4 wt.%). These composites were prepared using the modified solid-state reaction method with simultaneous sintering at 800 and 1100 °C. SBFCs were studied to determine the impact of various bio-silica concentrations on their morphology, structure, magnetic properties, permittivity, permeability, and X-band reflection loss. Various SBFC thicknesses were simulated to determine the reflection loss curves. It has been established that the MW absorption capacity of the examined SBFCs may be altered by adjusting the bio-silica concentration and sample thickness.

Chisocheton is a plant of the Meliaceae family which has been known as a source of limonoids, triterpenoids, steroids, alkaloids and phenolics. This plant is the second largest in the Meliaceae, with 53 species widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions including Indonesia. From this genus, compounds that have interesting activities have been found, including anti-inflammatory, antimalarial, cytotoxic, antitumor and anticancer. One of the species that has the potential to find new compounds is Chisocheton lasiocarpus because there are still few phytochemical studies. This study aims to inform the structural elucidation of one of the compounds from the stem bark of C. lasiocarpus, namely morelloflavone and its cytotoxic potential against breast cancer cells using the in silico method against ER-α receptors (PDB code: 3ERD), ER-β (PDB code: 1QKM). ) and HER-2 (GDP code: 3PP0).

Antimicrobial peptide (AMP), as a new antibiotic agent, has promising prospects in overcoming the problem of resistance. AMP production can be carried out by proteolytic enzymes. Protein from castor bean (R. communis) is toxic, so it can potentially be a source of AMP. This study aims to obtain protein hydrolysate from the castor bean (R. communis) using several extraction methods, including SDS dialysis, SDS-gel filtration, trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), and acetone precipitation. Chymotrypsin enzyme was used to hydrolyze the protein, and the peptide hydrolysate was fractionated using RP-HPLC. The peptide fraction was tested for its antibacterial activity by agar diffusion and microdilution methods, and the most active fraction was identified for its amino acid sequence by LC-HRMS. The results showed that the acetone precipitation extraction method was the best method, with a degree of hydrolysis of 83.9%. The active fractions 6 and 10 of RP-HPLC had IC50 values of 14.1 and 14.5 µg/mL for E. coli and 13.3 and 14.4 µg/mL for S. aureus, respectively. NVLRGKGMASL peptides were found in fraction 10, and GIILLSSK, NMIAKR, and LLDILTKK peptides were found in fraction 6 with an alpha helix secondary structure that can cause membrane damage. The peptides NVLRGKGMASL, GIILLSSK, NMIAKR, and LLDILTKK are thought to have potential as antibacterial compounds.

The most interesting and well-known research in the field of gold nanomaterials synthesis is the use of "green chemistry" to prepare gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). In this study, Peronema canescens leaf extract was used as the synthesis medium to successfully produce AuNPs in a way that was cheap, quick, and good for the environment. A UV-visible spectrophotometer, particle size analysis (PSA), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to find out more about the AuNPs that were prepared. The UV-visible spectrophotometer showed a surface plasmon resonance peak at 532 nm, which proves that AuNPs exist in the solution. TEM and PSA both showed that the AuNPs were mostly spherical and had an average diameter of 14.9 nm, respectively. In the presence of NaBH4, the AuNPs were found to speed up the reduction of rhodamine B (RhB), metanil yellow (MY), and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). The results show that the AuNPs that were prepared in a new way worked very well and could be used in catalysis.
