Judul: Immersion Treatment by Lime Solution in Making Mango (Mangifera indica L. var. Ariumanis) Peel Extract which was Added to Mango Puree
Abstrak: The arumanis mango (Mangifera indica L var. Arumanis) puree product with mango peel extract addition had the highest antioxidant activity compared to puree from flesh only or unpeeled mango. However, the addition of extracts to mango puree produced dark color, bitter taste and astringent flavor which was suspected to be caused by high tannin content in the skin, about 15%. The objective of this research was to study the improvement of sensory quality and antioxidant ability of arumanis mango peel extract by removing tannin using peel immersion in lime solution treatment before extraction. In addition, in this research also studied the optimum sensory results and antioxidant activity of the arumanis mango puree that had been added with the extract obtained. The making of the puree mango added to the extract was implemented using the method of previous studies by modifying part of sample preparation because there was a soaking treatment in lime solution before extraction. Formula optimization was performed using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with the Design Expert 11 program. The immersion treatment of mango peel by lime solution before extraction could reduce tannin levels in mango peel extract significantly by 39%. The result of formula optimization of mango puree with peel extract addition 0.7% could reduce tannin levels significantly by 28% without decreasing their antioxidant activity. However, immersion treatment by lime solution was unable to improve sensory acceptance on either the color attribute, aroma, taste, or overall.

Judul: Optimization of Kepok Banana Peel Extract (Musa paradisiaca L.) as an Antioxidant Ingredient
Abstrak: Limbah kulit pisang kepok (Musa paradisiaca) yang berpotensi sebagai antioksidan belum dimanfaatkan secara optimum. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan kondisi optimum maserasi kulit pisang kepok berdasarkan nisbah sampel:pelarut, konsentrasi pelarut, dan waktu maserasi menggunakan metode permukaan respons desain Box-Behnken untuk menghasilkan bahan antioksidan terbaik. Waktu maserasi merupakan variabel yang paling memengaruhi kapasitas antioksidan, kandungan fenolik dan flavonoid total dengan nilai p terkecil (<0,05) berdasarkan uji statistik Anova. Sementara itu, konsentrasi etanol merupakan variabel yang paling memengaruhi rendemen. Kondisi optimum ekstrak kulit pisang kepok berdasarkan analisis metode permukaan respons ialah kombinasi variabel nisbah sampel:pelarut 1:8,1, konsentrasi pelarut 72,9%, dan waktu maserasi 28,7 jam, dengan nilai prediksi respon, yaitu rendemen 33,9%, kapasitas antioksidan 6,9 AAE/g ekstrak, kandungan fenolik total 13,5 mg GAE/g ekstrak, dan kandungan flavonoid total 20,1 mg QE/g ekstrak., Kepok banana peel waste (Musa paradisiaca), which has the potential to be an antioxidant has yet to be optimally utilized. Thus, this study aims to determine the optimum condition of maceration of banana peels based on the samples:solvent ratio, solvent concentration, and maceration time using the Box-Behnken design response surface method to produce the best antioxidant ingredients. The maceration time was the variable that most affects antioxidant capacity, phenolic content, and total flavonoids, with the lowest p-value (<0.05) based on Anova statistical tests. Meanwhile, ethanol concentration was the variable that most affects the yield. Therefore, the optimum condition of banana peel extract based on the analysis of the response surface method was a combination of variable sample:solvent ratio of 1: 8.1, solvent concentration 72.9%, and maceration time of 28.7 hours, with a predicted response value, namely yield of 33.9%, the antioxidant capacity of 6.9 AAE/g extract, total phenolic content of 13.5 mg GAE/g extract, and total flavonoid content of 20.1 mg QE/g extract.

Judul: Heisenberg Uncertainty of Double SlitSystem Based on Budiyono-Rohrlich Quantum Statistics Model
Abstrak: Interpretasi kuantum dikembangkan untuk memaknai secara fisis dengan jelas bagaimana suatu dinamika pada sistem mikroskopis yang dijelaskan dengan teori-teori kuantum, seperti interpretasi Copenhagen yang mendeskripsikan sistem kuantum sebagai suatu keadaan yang dideskripsikan dengan fungsi gelombang yang berisikan bagaimana peluang keadaan suatu sistem. Interpretasi kuantum juga bisa dibawa dari suatu sistem klasik seperti pada model statistika-kuantum Budiyono-Rohrlich yang menjelaskan bagaimana dinamika kuantum berhubungan dengan sistem klasik dengan penerapan statistika pada model Hamiltonian sistem. Fungsi distribusi dapat mendeskripsikan bagaimana suatu sistem terdistribusi pada suatu ruang pada pandangan klasik namun untuk sistem kuantum fungsi distribusi adalah peluang dari sistem tersebut. Sistem klasik dan kuantum juga dipisahkan berdasarkan pada ketidakpastian Heisenberg tentang suatu pengukuran yang tidak bisa secara sekaligus dilakukan bersamaan. Model statistika-kuantum Budiyono-Rohrlich membawa suatu sistem klasik menjadi sistem kuantum dengan dua aksioma yaitu hukum kekekalan energi rata rata dan konservasi rapat probabilitas. Sistem klasik yang didefinisikan akan diatur dengan menambahkan dua variable matematis berupa ontic extensions dan epistemic restrictions dimana kedua variabel ini yang akan menghubungkan bagaimana sistem klasik bisa diubah menjadi sebuah sistem kuantum. Dua variabel matematis tadi membuat sebuah sistem bisa diperlihatkan ketidakpastiannya lewat perhitungan simpangan rata-rata dan hasilnya akan selalu memenuhi ketidakpastian Heisenberg
