The issue of non-biodegradable plastic waste and its environmental impact prompted the development of natural and biodegradable packaging, such as edible films. This research utilized extract of carrageenan derived from Eucheuma spinosum seaweed as the main ingredient for producing edible films, while also investigating the effect of adding chitosan on the mechanical properties, thickness, and …
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan tepung rumput laut (Eucheumma cottonii) terhadap sifat fisikokimia pada mie kering. Penelitian ini dilakukan secara eksperimental laboratorium dengan mengunakan metode Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan 4 faktor perlakuan yaitu A0 dengan komposisi 100% tepung terigu dan 0% tepung rumput laut, A1 dengan komposisi 80% tepung terigu da…
The waters of Ketapang District have calm water conditions with a substrate type that is suitable as a place for seaweed growth. Halimeda is an important genus of green algae. This species is widespread throughout coral reefs in subtidal areas, forming large populations. The aim of this research is to analyze the diversity of Halimeda species and their relationship with water parameters on the …
Conventional plastic as food packaging is difficult to decompose for hundreds of years. Carrageenan-based edible film from Kappaphycus alvarezii is a transparent and safe biodegradable alternative. This study aims to identify the effect of glycerol on the tensile strength, thickness, and morphology of edible films, as well as to examine the optimal concentration of glycerol. The film is made us…
Botryococcus braunii berpotensi dapat dimanfaatkan dalam industri pangan fungsional, pakan ternak, pigmen alami, kosmetik, farmasi, bahan pengental dan biofuel. Pemanenan mikroalga seringkali masih terkendala karena mikroalga bersifat uniseluler mikroskopis, sehingga proses pemisahan biomassa sulit dipisahkan dari media kulturnya. Metode biofloukasi menggunakan flokulan bakteri mampu membantu p…
The study aims to determine the selected formulation of the brown algae extract (Sargassum sp.) of peel-off mask products as antibacterial (Propionibacterium acnes). This research was carried out using laboratory experiments, making peel-off masks with the addition of brown algae extract (Sargassum sp.) 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% with 2 replications. Characterization of peel�off mask preparations by …

Penelitian ini dilakukan dari Juni sampai Agustus 2011 di Laboratorium Bioproses, Jurusan Teknik Kimia, Fakultas Teknik, La…
Study on phytoplankton as a bioindicator of water quality has been carried out in Lambidaro River, Palembang. The sample has taken in November 2021 which aims to determine the community structure of phytoplankton, saprobic index to indicate the level of pollution, and its correlation with environmental parameters. Sampling station was determined by purposive sampling and the sample was taken by…
Heavy metals Pb and Cu are one of the water pollution pollutants. To minimize heavy metals in the waters did bioremediation using microalgae. One of the wetland water microalgae used as a bioremediation agent is Spirulina sp. The ability of Spirulina sp. in reducing the concentration of heavy metals is different for each heavy metal. This research aims to study the growth of Spirulina sp. in cu…
