AVALIAÇÃO DO DESEMPENHO OPERACIONAL ENTRE ENFARDADORAS NO RECOLHIMENTO DE PALHIÇO DE CANA-DE-AÇÚCAR
Authors: Denadai Marcelo Scantamburlo , Spadim Emanuel Rangel , Oguri Guilherme , Guerra Saulo Philipe Sebastião
Published: January 2019

A biomassa tem grande importância em relação às principais fontes de energia utilizadas no mundo, e também por ser uma energia renovável. O enfardamento tem sido amplamente utilizado na agricultura desde a década de 1970 e permite o aumento da densidade do material, uma vez que compacta a biomassa em fardos. Após a proibição da queima prévia dos canaviais, uma grande quantidade de resíduo vegetal, que antes era queimado, começou a ser deixado sobre o solo, podendo ser aproveitado para a geração de energia elétrica e produção de etanol de segunda geração. Dentre as diversas formas de recolhimento da palha no campo, tem-se discutido e utilizado a retirada da mesma em fardos, pois aumenta a eficiência no transporte desse material. Atualmente, as enfardadoras utilizadas no enfardamento do palhiço são as mesmas utilizadas e projetadas para o enfardamento de feno. Dentre elas, destacam-se dois sistemas básicos de funcionamento, as cilíndricas e as prismáticas, existindo questionamento sobre qual sistema utilizar. O objetivo deste trabalho foi a avaliação do desempenho operacional de duas enfardadoras para enfardamento do palhiço de cana-de-açúcar. Os equipamentos ensaiados compreenderam o conjunto trator e enfardadoras, sendo utilizado trator de mesma potência para as duas enfardadoras. Os ensaios foram realizados baseando-se nas normas da ASABE, com cinco repetições para análise estatística. Dentre as variáveis coletadas em campo, destacam-se o estudo de tempos e movimentos do conjunto, rastreamento da área trabalhada com GPS, avaliação da biomassa no campo, avaliações dos fardos e mensuração do consumo de combustível. Para comparação das enfardadoras foi realizado análise de variância ao nível de 5% de significância por meio do programa estatístico Sisvar. Não foram observadas diferenças significativas para as produtividades das enfardadoras avaliadas, porém existem diferenças para densidade dos fardos, massa dos fardos, número de fardos e capacidade de campo.
Plant leaf tooth feature extraction v2
Authors: Hu Wang , Chu Li , Yan Tian , Haoyu Zhou , Di Tian
Published: January 2019

Previous studies extract features that are not strictly defined in botany; therefore, a uniform standard to compare the accuracies of various feature extraction methods cannot be used. For efficient and automatic retrieval of plant leaves from a leaf database, in this study, we propose an image-based description and measurement of leaf teeth by referring to the leaf structure classification system in botany. First, image preprocessing is carried out to obtain a binary map of plant leaves. Then, corner detection based on the curvature scale-space (CSS) algorithm is used to extract the inflection point from the edges; next, the leaf tooth apex is extracted by screening the convex points; then, according to the definition of the leaf structure, the characteristics of the leaf teeth are described and measured in terms of number of orders of teeth, tooth spacing, number of teeth, sinus shape, and tooth shape.
Research on the application of mobile phone location signal data in earthquake emergency work v1
Authors: Chaoxu Xia
Published: January 2019

After the earthquake, the important task of the earthquake emergency rescue work is to minimize casualties, but due to the sudden earthquake disasters, it is difficult to get enough disaster information immediately, especially the personnel distribution and movement information. The traditional method to obtain disaster data is through the earthquake report of the disaster area or the field investigation of the emergency rescue team, the work is lag and low efficiency. This paper analyzes the feasibility of mobile phone location signal data in earthquake emergency rescue work from several aspects, such as quantity, location, change rate, and epicentral distance. The results show that the mobile phone location signal data can quickly obtain the situation of the personnel distribution and quantity after the earthquake, we find the change rate, the distance, etc. can determine the approximate range of the earthquake impact field. Through the data distribution in different time periods, the movement of the personnel after the earthquake can be obtained. Based on several situations, we can obtain the basic situation of the disaster-stricken areas in time after the earthquake, especially the personnel relevant situation, and this data can provide a scientific basis for emergency rescue decision-making.

Authors: Thao Bui Phuong , Nunes Quentin , Li Yong , G.Fernig David
Published: January 2019

Interactions between heparan sulfate proteoglycans and the partner proteins regulate many aspects of cell functions, however, their binding properties are still equivocal. Developed eight years ago was a method for selective labelling of lysine residues in the heparin binding sites of Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs). The labelling of arginine residues is far more challenging, due to the multiple reaction products between a dicarbonyl and a guanidino group.
The Ebola 100 Project: A Flexible Approach to Collaborative Research
Authors: Post Kristin
Published: January 2019

In order to collaborate on human subjects research, social scientists require flexible approaches that allow them to adhere to legal and ethical protections specific to their community or profession. Such flexibility is illustrated in the Ebola 100 Project (2018), a “voluntary, collaborative, multi-institutional, and international” anthropological research project that captured lessons learned about organizational responses to the West Africa Ebola outbreak of 2014–2015. The inclusive project comprised almost a dozen investigators from government and non-government organizations from several different countries. A few of the project's United States contributors worked as part of the Translational Research Group, a research facility housed under the Marine Corps culture center. These researchers had access to potential participants in the military and experience conducting qualitative research in compliance with Department of Defense human subjects protection regulations. One outcome of the inclusive and flexible design of the Ebola 100 Project is that it allows for participation from relatively under-represented populations in traditional anthropological research, such as United States military personnel. Upon completion of the Ebola 100 Project, researchers interested in analyzing the experiences and stories of individuals who responded to a global health emergency can access more than 100 interviews.
Understanding Children's Perspectives On Water Resources in Interdisciplinary Research
Authors: Gonzalez Paola A. , Zarger Rebecca K. , Ann Vitous C. , Prouty Christine
Published: January 2019

Children's perspectives and knowledge of their local environment are not often incorporated into interdisciplinary applied research projects focused on understanding human relations with water resources. This paper discusses the process of integrating children's perspectives into interdisciplinary research on water resources through the use of a method called “picture voice,” where children create drawings to share their experiences. The paper focuses on research conducted in southern Belize and how this approach can be useful for developing educational activities for school settings to share research results of interdisciplinary environmental research projects. Projects involving children ideally entail a collaborative effort between researchers and educators alike, and we suggest that picture voice is a methodological tool for young people to share their perspectives. We suggest greater attention should be given to children's knowledge by anthropologists and their natural and engineering sciences colleagues to expand curricula in a way that shifts attention to local ecology and children's environmental knowledge and practices. Finally, best practices for bridging anthropology and engineering to share results of projects through educational efforts are presented.

Authors: Akkaya Saffet , İbrahimli Haleddin
Published: January 2019

Bu makalenin amacı, İran’ın 1979 İslam devriminden sonra bölgesel bir güç haline gelmesinde etkili olan faktörleri incelemektir. Bu amaca ulaşabilmek için önce İran’ın zengin devlet kültürü ve tarihinin bu sürece olan etkisinin geri planı incelenmiştir. Arkasından, bu dönüşümün temel faktörleri olduğu düşünülen İran’ın teokratik yapısı, bu yapının Orta Doğu’daki değişimlere ve gelişmelere olan uygunluğu, İran’ın Rusya ve ABD ile olan ilişkileri, İran-Rusya ikilisinin birlikte yürüttükleri bölgesel politikalar ve bu iki devletin çatışan ve kesişen çıkarları mercek altına alınmıştır. İlk ve yeri geldikçe ikincil verilere dayanan bu nitel çalışmada, İran’ın Orta Doğu coğrafyasında bölgesel bir güce yükselmesinin asıl sebebinin onun zengin devlet kültürü ve tarihinden ziyade teokratik siyasi yapısı ve özellikle Soğuk Savaş’tan sonra Rusya ile müştereken yürüttükleri politikalar olduğu sonucuna varılmaktadır. Çalışmanın İran ve Rusya eksenli Orta Doğu dinamiklerinin daha iyi anlaşılabilmesine imkân sağlayacağı ve ilgili literatüre katkı yapacağı değerlendirilmiştir.

Authors: BATTEY DAN , LEYVA LUIS A. , WILLIAMS IMMANUEL , BELIZARIO VICTORIA A. , GRECO RACHEL , SHAH ROSHNI
Published: January 2019

While research has consistently shown the positive effects of having a teacher of the same race on various student outcomes, the literature has not examined how racial match affects the everyday interactions within classrooms. This research article by Dan Battey, Luis A. Leyva, Immanuel Williams, Victoria A. Belizario, Rachel Greco, and Roshni Shah addresses this underexplored area by documenting relational interactions in classrooms to find one mechanism that could be producing racialized effects on learning. Using a dataset from a study of twenty-five mathematics classrooms across predominantly white and black US middle schools, they examine the quality of relational interactions when teachers and students are racially matched and mismatched, as well as the effects on student achievement in mathematics. Their analysis shows how various dimensions of relational interactions significantly predict increases and decreases in achievement due to racial match.

Evidence of Content Validity of the Enade Psychology Assessment

This study aims to analyze evidence of validity based on the content of the psychology test applied in the Exame Nacional de Desempenho dos Estudantes (Enade) [National Exam of Student Proficiency] of 2015. We used Blueprint, a tool recommended in the international literature for test design. There were significant discrepancies between the skills and abilities presented in the test specifications, and in the cognitive demand demanded in almost all multiple-choice questions. Furthermore, there are skills and abilities presented in test specifications that were not in the test, and other skills and abilities that were represented by only one item, which compromise measurement reliability. We conclude that the evidence based on the content for this test shows the necessity to use tools to improve this primary source of evidence.

Impact of Varicocele and Varicocele Surgery on Semen Quality, Erectile Function and Serum Hormone Levels
Authors: Mohamad Al-Ali Badereddin , Persad Emma , Lunacek Andreas , Mrstik Christof , Plas Eugen
Published: January 2019

Introduction: Many studies suggest that varicoceles are associated with hypogonadism and varicocele repair can increase testosterone levels and improve erectile function.Aim: The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze the impact of varicocele and varicocele surgery on testosterone level, semen quality, and erectile function.Methods: Our study included 265 infertile males with a clinical varicocele. This group was divided into three groups: group 1 (193) patients who did not receive surgery, group 2 (72 patients) who were operated on according to the Palomo procedure and group 3 (28 patients), who acted as a control group without a varicocele. All patients completed the International Index of Erectile Function IIEF-5 (German version) and underwent semen analysis. Serum testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and luteinizing hormone (LH) were measured at inclusion into the study and after surgery.Main outcome measures: Changes in semen quality, erectile function, and serum hormones after surgery.Results: The IIEF-5 scores in groups 1 and 2 were 21.01 ± 2.2; and 21.74 ± 1 respectively, and the resulting t-test for equality of variance was significant (p < 0.0001). Total testosterone level in groups 1 and 2 were 3.16 ± 0.37 and 3 ± 0.01, respectively, and the resulting t-test for equality of variance was significant (p < 0.0001). The results of the semen analysis were better in group 2 (after surgery) (28.6%, p < 0.001) in comparison to group 1. Interestingly, pre-operative serum testosterone levels were lower in patients with later improvement of semen analysis (p = 0.05). Body mass index (p = 0.8), pre-operative serum FSH (p = 0.9), LH (p = 0.2), and nicotine consumption (p = 0.6) were similar in both the group that saw improvement and the group with no change in semen quality.Conclusion: Semen quality improved in 28.6% of patients after varicocele surgery. Erectile dysfunction (ED) improved after varicocele surgery. We report that lower pre-operative serum testosterone level might be a possible indicator for successful surgical outcome.

Authors: Cunha Neto Júlio Henrique , Da Costa Váldina Gonçalves
Published: January 2019

A identidade profissional constituída pelo indivíduo não se reduz ao ato de trabalhar; revela-se a partir dos processos de socialização. Com base em Dubar, Berger e Luckmann, Carlos Marcelo, entre outros, analisam-se os discursos de professores do Curso de Licenciatura em Matemática, com o objetivo de compreender aspectos da socialização que engendram a identidade desses docentes. Verifica-se que, o rigor matemático, as demonstrações, as listas de exercícios, juntamente com a abordagem tradicional de ensino, são categorias presentes nos processos de socialização dos professores formadores na Licenciatura em Matemática; além disso, infere-se que os processos de socialização estruturam a identidade docente.
Dimensões socializadoras do currículo na perspectiva de uma Pedagogia Social: algumas aproximações
Authors: Severo José Leonardo Rolim de Lima
Published: January 2019

Trata-se de um ensaio teórico que se centra na abordagem do potencial atribuído ao referencial da Pedagogia Social como contribuição ao debate sobre formação humana através dos currículos escolares. Considera-se a matriz conceitual da Pedagogia Social como corpo de saberes e práticas socioeducativas orientadas ao desenvolvimento da sociabilidade dos sujeitos diante de demandas e possibilidades dos contextos comunitários em que estão inseridos. Os processos curriculares inspirados por esse referencial deverão levar em conta a finalidade política da escola como elemento chave para a socialização cultural que dá sentido à estruturação e prática de currículos voltados à formação para a cidadania, ao contrário do que se propõe no marco gerencialista da programação curricular que encerra formas esquemáticas e simplistas de conteúdos instrumentais ou normatizadores.
Formação continuada de professores de Matemática, Tecnologias Digitais e Ensino a Distância: levantamento de pesquisas (2011 – 2015)
Authors: Nishio Ana Lisa , Hora Dayse Martins
Published: January 2019

Neste trabalho discutimos aspectos relacionados à formação continuada de professores de Matemática com o uso de Tecnologias Digitais de Informação e Comunicação (TDIC) no âmbito do ensino a distância, por meio de um levantamento de trabalhos científicos da área, tendo por loci de investigação os anais de eventos acadêmico-científicos, os periódicos científicos, o banco de teses e dissertações da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) e, os Anais das Reuniões da Associação Nacional de Pesquisa e Pós-Graduação em Educação (ANPED), no período de 2011 a 2015. O que a literatura acadêmica tem acumulado de conhecimento sobre a formação continuada de professores de matemática com o uso da estratégia a distância? Os trabalhos revelaram que o professor de Matemática se apropria das metodologias inovadoras apoiadas nas TDIC por meio de processos interativos, em que conhecimentos técnicos e pedagógicos se fundem na construção de novas possibilidades para o processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Porém, são inúmeros os desafios que instigam pesquisadores a pensar em formação continuada a distância do professor e que, a questão da acessibilidade é inegável, porém tais formações apresentam pontos frágeis que devem ser revistos para que esse futuro profissional na área de ensino da Matemática obtenha sucesso.Palavras-chave: Formação continuada; Educação Matemática; Tecnologias digitais.

Published: January 2019

Cet article vise à mieux comprendre pourquoi certains groupes religieux s’impliquent plus que d’autres dans les questions qui connectent l’environnement et la santé. Nous analysons les représentations sociales des groupes catholiques et évangéliques de communautés riveraines en Amazonie brésilienne. À partir de verbatim d’entretiens semidirigés conduits avec des leaders religieux, nous avons réalisé une analyse qualitative à l’aide de catégories conceptualisantes. Les leaders de chacun des groupes ont des représentations similaires des principaux problèmes de santé et d’environnement. Toutefois, les résultats montrent que les catholiques accordent une grande importance à la conscientisation, à l’éducation, à l’implication et à la mobilisation sociale, tandis que les évangéliques misent fortement sur l’évangélisation et l’obéissance aux règles prescrites par la Bible. Nous concluons que les représentations sociales issues des traditions catholiques et évangéliques influent sur le type d’action sociale que les groupes préconisent pour améliorer les conditions de santé et la qualité de l’environnement.
Geographic reconstruction of a Central-West Brazilian landscape devastated during the first half of the 20th century: Mato Grosso de Goiás
Authors: Giustina Carlos Christian Della , Silva Sandro Dutra e , Martins Eder de Souza
Published: January 2019

In the history of humanity, there are various accounts of ecosystems that were devastated to the detriment of scientific knowledge. In Brazil, the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado biomes are emblematic of this phenomenon. Specifically, within the latter, an environment consisting predominantly of savanna, a large tropical forest enclave existed, known as Mato Grosso de Goiás. This ecosystem was almost devastated by the Brazilian land expansion policies during the first half of the 20th century. The objective of this study is to estimate the extent of the original area of the Mato Grosso de Goiás ecosystem through integration of historical and cartographic data using geoprocessing techniques. The original area was estimated around 26,391 km². These data can aid in the planning of conservation policies for the Cerrado biome. In addition, the used methodology can be adapted to similar studies, especially in the field of environmental science.

Introduction: Regarding the high impact of Diabetes Mellitus type II (DM II) on human's health, it seems that identifying DM II risk factors is important to prevent its development. Further studies are needed to ensure the positive role of uric acid in the onset of diabetes. This study targeted at investigating the attributed risk of hyperuricemia for the onset of DM II.
Methods: In the present study, 1641 non-diabetic people, selected through multi-stage random cluster sampling, were followed up for 10 years (2006 - 2016). During the study, data on the variables of the study were collected and entered in SPSS 16 which was used to analyze the data. To calculate the attributions of hyperuricemia in the risk of developing diabetes, Levin's formulas and attributed risk related to the prevalence of exposure during these ten years were used.
Results: Findings showed DM II was developed in 54.8% of people with hyperuricemia, whereas 28.2% of people with normal uric acid level developed diabetes. The Population Attributed Risk (PAR) of hyperuricemia and uric acid over than 75th percentile of serum uric acid for DM II incidence were calculated by the weighted attributed risk formula was 3.6 % and 26.6 %, respectively. With the treatment of serum uric acid over than 75th percetile, the incidence of diabetes in population was reduced to 24.2% over a 10-year period.
Conclusion: In this study, there was a significant correlation between high uric acid level and the risk of diabetes. Therefore, necessary measurements should be taken to treat the hyperuricemia patients in order to prevent the incidence of diabetes caused by high blood acid uric.

Published: January 2019

Introduction: Air pollution is now one of the greatest environmental hazards to human health in the world. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between air quality and cases of myocardial infarction in Yazd.
Methods: This Ecological study was performed in Yazd, Iran. In this study, all the cases with myocardial infarction in Yazd who referred to emergency rooms from March 20, 2016 to March 20, 2017 entered the study. Information on the daily concentration of air pollutants included five pollutants SO2, CO, O3, NO2 and PM10 and was validated according to the World Health Criteria. In the next step the raw data from air pollutants related to each station using equation and table standard was converted to separate AQI values for each pollutant and the pollutant having the highest index was introduced as the pollutant responsible for the day. Excel 2007 and R (3.4.3) software were used to analyze the data. The significant level was considered to be less than 0.05.
Results: According to measurements of air pollutants, out of 349 days, the air quality index (AQI <100) was standard in 245 days and in 104 days of the year was above the standard (AQI> 100).PM10 and CO emissions were for air pollutants in 86 days out of 104 days.
Conclusion:  Given that in 104 days of the year, air quality has exceeded the standard, the children and elderly people should take caution in those days.

Published: January 2019

El acceso a la justicia es hoy en día un Derecho fundamental reconocido en la Constitución española en el artículo 24 a través del Derecho a la tutela judicial efectiva, así como el derecho a la asistencia justicia gratuita para aquellos que acrediten insuficiencia de recursos para litigar de acuerdo con el artículo 119 de la Constitución española. Sin embargo, estos derechos se desdibujan cuando intentamos reivindicar los derechos de los consumidores. En este trabajo analizamos cómo Cappelletti teorizó, a través de su obra General Report Access to justice, las tres olas básicas para conseguir derribar las barreras que impiden el acceso a la justicia. Esta teoría refleja los pasos seguidos por la Unión Europea para mejorar el acceso a la justicia de los consumidores.Recibido: 30 octubre 2018Aceptado: 21 noviembre 2018Publicación en línea: 27 diciembre 2018

La tercera tesis se refiere al fundamento de uno y otro principio (tesis del fundamento común). El estudio de estas tres relaciones será precedido por una exposición del contenido y el alcance del principio de razonabilidad. El principio de proporcionalidad, por esta más difundido, será tratado de modo sintético.Recibido: 30 octubre 2018Aceptado: 21 noviembre 2018Publicación en línea: 27 diciembre 2018
El principio de neutralidad en Internet. Una aportación a la libertad de comunicación en Internet desde el pensamiento de Francisco de Vitoria
Authors: Albert Márquez José J.
Published: January 2019

La relevancia que hoy día tiene internet para recibir y emitir mensajes hace que cualquier limitación a un régimen que nació bajo el parámetro de la libertad sea vista con preocupación. En la actualidad, se cuestiona que toda la información que transita por la red deba hacerlo a la misma velocidad, y que sean las empresas que realizan el servicio de transporte o los propios gobiernos quienes decidan en qué términos se limita el acceso a internet. En el S. XVI, Francisco de Vitoria argumentaba que existe entre todas las personas un derecho natural a la comunicación en sociedad, principio que hoy día constituiría un serio argumento en favor de la libertad en la red y de la neutralidad de empresas y gobiernos en este punto.Recibido: 30 octubre 2018Aceptado: 21 noviembre 2018Publicación en línea: 27 diciembre 2018

Leczenie cukrzycy typu 2 na każdym etapie powinno być wspomagane odpowiednią dietą połączoną z aktywnością fizyczną. Kluczowym makroskładnikiem diety, mającym bezpośredni wpływ na wzrost glikemii po posiłku, są węglowodany. Od kilkudziesięciu lat badane są efekty interwencji dietetycznych polegających na ograniczeniu procentowego udziału węglowodanów w diecie na rzecz innych makroskładników. Dieta niskowęglowodanowa była i nadal jest sugerowana przez niektórych ekspertów oraz środowiska pacjentów jako najskuteczniejsza i niosąca najmniejsze ryzyko skutków ubocznych. Sugestie te nie są jednak poparte dowodami pochodzącymi z wysokiej jakości randomizowanych kontrolowanych badań klinicznych. Praca stanowi przegląd publikowanych w ostatnich latach metaanaliz randomizowanych kontrolowanych badań porównujących parametry mające znaczenie dla leczenia cukrzycy: glikemię na czczo, hemoglobinę glikowaną, lipidogram oraz redukcję masy ciała. Obecnie brak wystarczających dowodów naukowych do zalecania jednej, optymalnej ilości węglowodanów w diecie, wobec czego zalecenia te powinny być indywidualizowane. Większą rolę w podejmowanych interwencjach dietetycznych u chorych na cukrzycę typu 2 mają obniżenie całkowitej wartości energetycznej diety oraz jakość dostarczanych makroskładników, szczególnie węglowodanów i tłuszczów.
Traumatismo encéfalocraneano, ¿factor de riesgo para esquizofrenia o causa de psicosis? A propósito de un caso.
Authors: Rivera-Encinas María Teresa , Revilla-Zúñiga Joshep A. , Cruzado Lizardo
Published: January 2019

El traumatismo encéfalo craneano (TEC) ha sido identificado como causa desencadenante de psicosis y también como factor de riesgo y antecedente en la eclosión de esquizofrenia. Con el fin de ilustrar el diagnóstico diferencial entre estas dos posibilidades, se presenta un caso cínico y se revisa brevemente la literatura pertinente. Paciente varón de 21 años, con antecedentes familiares de esquizofrenia, sufrió un TEC severo a los 13 años y dos años después empezó a presentar delusiones de daño y referencia y alucinaciones auditivas a las que siguieron poco después, síntomas de tipo negativo. El diagnóstico diferencial entre esquizofrenia paranoide y psicosis secundaria a TEC se decantó a favor de la primera. Se requiere abarcar la mayor cantidad de elementos clínicos (anamnésicos y de exploración física), exámenes auxiliares neuropsicológicos, imagenológicos y electroencefalográficos en este tipo de disquisición clínica pues muchas veces el diagnóstico dista de ser claro. La evolución clínica del trastorno, como es usual, puede dirimir el dilema diagnóstico.

Melinjo seeds (Gnetum gnemonÂ L.) have antioxidant properties one of which is from phenol compounds. However, there is no pharmaceutical dosage form of melinjo seeds especially effervescent tablet. The purpose of this research was to determine the best variation of citric-tartaric acid and PEG 6000 from effervescent tablet of melinjo seed extract. The effervescent tablet of melinjo seed extract were formulated with variation of citric-tartaric acid 25%:75%, 65%:35%, 50%:50%, 20%:80% and PEG 6000 0%, 2%, 3%, up to 5%. The effervescent tablet were made by melting parts of acids and bases, added with extract and other ingredients. The evaluation included flow and powder tapping, tablet hardness, weight variation, friability, and tablet solubility test. The data were analyzed by comparing approaches based on the requirements of Pharmacopeia Indonesia V andUnited States of Pharmacopeia 36.Variations of equal amount of citric-tartaric acid produced hard effervescent tablets with small friability. The unbalanced acid concentration resulted in higher friability. The greater the concentration of citric acid resulted in the longer solubility of the tablet. The addition of PEG 6000 made the flow time of granules quicker, while higher concentrations would increase the hardness of tablets and accelerate the soluble time. Excessively high concentrations resulted in a high degree of friability. Variation of citric-tartaric acid and PEG 6000 influenced physical properties of granule and effervescent tablet extract of melinjo seeds, such as flowability, hardness, friability, and solubility of the tablet.

Penyakit kulit saat ini masih menjadi salah satu masalah bagi masyarakat Indonesia. Salah satu penyakit kulit yang meresahkan yaitu penyakit bisul. Penyakit ini disebabkan karena infeksi dari bakteri gram positif Staphylococcus Aureus. Bakteri Staphylococcus aureus merupakan bakteri patogen yang paling banyak menyerang manusia yang hidup sebagai saprofit dalam membran pencernaan dan kulit manusia. Salah satu antibakteri yang saat ini telah banyak diteliti yaitu sifat antibakteri dari minyak atsiri daun kemangi. Minyak atsiri daun kemangi memiliki daya aktivitas antibakteri yang cukup tinggi. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa kandungan minyak kemangi dalam sabun mandi cair dapat menghambat pertumbuhan bakteri Staphylococcus Aureus. Penambahan minyak kemangi sebesar 0,25 mL kedalam sabun mandi cair 10 mL menunjukkan aktivitas yang baik yaitu dengan rata-rata diameter hambat 7,8 mm. Aktivitas tertinggi ditunjukkan oleh minyak kemangi 0,75 mL dalam sabun mandi cair 10 mL, yaitu dengan rata-rata diameter hambat 9,8 mm. Namun, formulasi sabun cair yang paling diminati oleh responden adalah sabun minyak kemangi 5%, yaitu 0,5 mL minyak kemangi ditambahkan kedalam 10 mL sabun cair dengan diameter hambat 8,3 mm.
