Judul: Aktivitas hambatan gabungan ekstrak kunyit (Curcuma domestica Va), temu lawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb), dan Lempuyang (Zingiber zerumbet) terhadap proliferasi sel kanker usus besar HCT (ATCC-CCL 116)
Abstrak: Curcuminoid and flavonoid can inhibit cancer cells growth. Both compounds are contained in Curcuma domestica Va and Curcuma xanthorrhiza while Zingiber zerumbet only contains flavonoid. The objective of this study was to determine the potency of C. domestica Va, C. xanthorrhiza Roxb, and Z. zerumbet mixed extract as inhibitor of colon cancer cells HCT (ATCC-CCL 116). The rhizomes were extracted using Huda and 96% ethanol methods. The toxicity test of extracts against Artemia salina showed that 50% lethal concentration (LC50) of 96% ethanol extract was lower than Huda’s method extract. The LC50 values of C. domestica Va, C. xanthorrhiza Roxb, and Z. zerumbet extract were 93.2; 9.1, and 21.2 ppm, respectively.

Abstrak: Kanker merupakan salah satu jenis penyakit berbahaya yang mengalami peningkatan kasus setiap tahunnya. Radikal bebas merupakan penyebab mutasi gen yang dapat memicu kanker. Kanker akan berkembang tanpa terkendali karena terjadinya disregulasi siklus sel dan adanya senyawa pemicu proliferasi sel serta penghambat proses apoptosis. Pengobatan kanker dilakukan dengan memberikan inhibitor cyclin dependent kinase2 (CDK2) dan cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) untuk menghambat perkembangan kanker, serta inhibitor lipoxygenase (LOX) untuk menghambat pembentukan radikal bebas. Tanaman temu ireng diketahui memiliki potensi sebagai antioksidan dan antikanker. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui interaksi molekuler antara senyawa dominan ekstrak etanol temu ireng dengan CDK2, COX-2, dan LOX sebagai reseptor. Jenis interaksi ligan dengan reseptor ditentukan melalui parameter energi afinitas (ΔG), konstanta inhibisi (Ki), jenis interaksi dan persentase binding site similarity (%BSS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa senyawa uji gajutsulacton A memiliki potensi terbaik dalam menghambat CDK2. Senyawa uji cucumenol berpotensi sebagai inhibitor COX-2 tetapi tidak terdapat senyawa yang dapat menghambat LOX dengan baik sebagai antioksidan., Cancer is one type of dangerous disease that is increasing every year. Free radicals are the cause of gene mutations which can lead to cancer. Cancer will develop uncontrollably due to the dysregulation of the cell cycle and the presence of compounds which trigger cell proliferation and inhibit the process of apoptosis. Cancer treatment is carried out by giving cyclin-dependent kinase2 (CDK2) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor drugs to inhibit cancer development, as well as lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitor drugs for the formation of free radicals. The temu ireng plant is known to have the potential as an antioxidant and anticancer. This study aims to determine the molecular interaction between the dominant compound of temu ireng ethanol extract with CDK2, COX-2, and LOX receptors. The type of ligand interaction with the receptor was determined through the parameters of affinity energy (ΔG), inhibition constant (Ki), type of interaction, and percentage of binding site similarity (%BSS). The results showed that the test compound gajutsulacton A had the best potential in inhibiting CDK2. The test compound cucumenol may be a COX-2 inhibitor and there are no compounds that can inhibit LOX well as an antioxidant.

Abstrak: This research has been done on making rain intensity gauge using a magnetic field sensor UGN3503. Sensor UGN3503 can detect the magnetic field on its surface. The sensor is placed above a seesaw that was inserted magnet. The magnet used is Neodymium magnet is a type of permanent magnet with stongest magnetic field compared to other types of fixed magnetic field magnets. When the seesaw discards rainwater, the distance between sensor and magnet is closer and causing the keluaran voltage of the sensor increases. The keluaran voltage of the sensor is compared with a reference voltage by the comparator so that the sensor keluaran data is in digital form and ready to be processed. As the processing and sending of data used ATmega16 microcontroller, microcontroller take sensor data once every 100 ms and display data to the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) 16x2. Every 30 minutes the data is processed into the rain intensity is then stored into a computer.
