Turmeric is a plant that included in Zingiberaceae. Turmerics often used as a traditional medicine to heal wounds, antibacterial, reduces intestine motility, reduce unpleasant body odor, treats fever, diarrhea, and many more. Standardization is performed by examining turmeric rhizome simpicia and extract. Standardization is carried out to guarantee the quality of traditional raw materials and requirements for reproducibility of pharmaceutical and therapeutic qualities. Parameters that have been used in this research are macroscopic test, microscopic test, total ash content test, acid insoluble ash content test, water soluble simplicia content test, ethanol soluble simplicia content test, shrinkage drying test, and Phytochemistry screening qualitatively. From the results, turmeric simplicia has met the requirements, while turmeric extract has  not eligible in requirements, because its acid insoluble ash content are not eligible. This expected because of the impurities which contamine the extract are silica and sand.  Silica can cuts the mucosa of the throat when used it orally. Turmeric extract in this research does not eligible and cannot be used for the next step.

Bromelain is one of the protease that can be produced from all of parts of the pineapple plants (Ananas comosus). It has potential to improve quality of local Indonesian food such as tempeh gembus, virgin coconut oil (VCO), and dumbo catfish based fish sauce (DCBFS). Tempeh gembus is a traditional food that has unique characteristics especially in its taste because it contains amino acids. VCO attracts consumers because of its health aspect. Its raw materials are available in Indonesia. DCBS  is a product of fermented fish with salt that has a distinctive taste and is produced in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the effect of bromelain on local Indonesian food and its applications. The result showed that the use of bromelain in local Indonesian food could improve the quality and nutritional value of local food. Bromelain can be used in local food like tempeh gembus, virgin coconut oil, and fish sauce from dumbo catfish. The use of bromelain in tempeh gembus could  increase both of the water-soluble nitrogen level and the pH value. However, the addition of bromelain in the production of virgin coconut oil and fish sauce from dumbo catfish could increase the yield of theirs. .

Limbah industri kayu sengon menjadi salah satu bahan baku dalam pembuatan pelet kayu karena potensinya yang cukup besar. Akan tetapi pelet kayu sengon memiliki kerapatan serta nilai kalor yang rendah. Untuk meningkatkan sifat bahan bakar pelet kayu Sengon maka dilakukan pencampuran bahan dengan serbuk tempurung kelapa. Penelitian ini menggunakan bahan dari limbah serbuk gergaji sengon (Falcataria moluccana (Miq.)) dan limbah tempurung kelapa (Cocos nucifera). Masing-masing bahan dibuat partikel pada 3 kelompok ukuran yaitu 20-40 mesh, 40-60 mesh, dan 60-80 mesh. Ke dalam serbuk kayu sengon ditambahkan serbuk tempurung kelapa dengan penambahan 25%, 50%, dan 75%, sedangkan untuk kontrol (0%) adalah pelet kayu sengon tanpa penambahan tempurung kelapa. Pelet dibuat dengan menggunakan single-pelletizer pada suhu ruang dengan tekanan 100 kg/cm2. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kombinasi bahan baku yang berbeda (sengon dan tempurung kelapa) memberikan pengaruh terhadap sifat fisika dan kimia pelet kayu. Semakin tinggi persentase campuran serbuk tempurung kelapa pada pelet kayu sengon maka semakin tinggi keteguhan tekan, karbon terikat, total karbon dan nilai kalor, sedangkan untuk kadar zat mudah menguap, kadar abu, kadar N, S, dan H semakin rendah. Pelet terbaik dihasilkan pada kombinasi penambahan tempurung kelapa 50% dengan ukuran 60-80 mesh yang memiliki sifat kadar abu yang rendah (0,79%) dan nilai kalor yang tinggi (5129,07 Kal/g), serta keteguhan tekan yang masih cukup tinggi (444,75N). Hasil tersebut memenuhi standar SNI 8021:2014.Effect of Particle Size and Addition of Coconut Cell on the Quality of Sengon Wood PelletAbstractThe waste of sengon (Falcataria moluccana) industry becomes one of the raw materials in the manufactured of wood pellets, because of its potency. However F. moluccana pellets posses low density and calorific value. To improve its properties, a materials mixing with coconut shell parcticles was conducted. This study used material from the waste of sengon (F. moluccana) sawdust and the waste of coconut (Cocos nucifera). Particles from those materials were made on 3 sizes which are 20-40 mesh, 40-60 mesh, and 60-80 mesh. 25%, 50%, and 75% of coconut shell were added into sengon sawdust, while woode pellets with no additions were used as a control. Pellets are made using single-pelletizer at room temperature with a pressure of 100 kg/cm2. The research results showed if the different material combination (sengon and coconut shell) gave significant effect to physical properties and chemical content of wood pellets. Higher percentage of coconut shell gives higher compressive strength, fixed carbon content, total of carbon, and calorific value, while volatile matter, ash content, N, S, and H content showed lower value. The best pellet was resulted from combination between coconut shell addition 50% and nesh size 60 – 80 which posses quite low ash content (0.79%) and high calorific value (5129.07 Kal/g), and high compression strength (444.75 N). This result has qualified the standard of SNI 8021:2014.

A promising method of intensifying the process of sinter preparation preparation was investigated by using surfactants as an additional binding material. It is shown that surfactants provide efficient compaction of charge materials. The use of water-soluble surfactant additives (aminocrylate of various compositions) when moistening the charge in the blending and pelletizing of charge materials positively affects the sintering performance and the quality of the finished sinter. An increase in the strength of the agglomerate during recovery, a decrease in abrasion, and an increase in the temperature of the maximum melt filtration were noted. An increase in the recoverability of the agglomerate and the associated decrease in the “aggressiveness” of primary slags were also observed. When using surfactants, the duration of the process was reduced, and the vertical sintering rate increased from 1.0-1.8% to 6.1-8.5%. The yield of the charge has increased by 0.4-2.4%, the strength index - by 0.4-2.2%. Analysis of the results of laboratory studies confirmed that the introduction of surfactants in moisturizing water can improve the quality of the mixture. In particular, the gas permeability of the charge is improved, the best conditions for burning solid fuel and the process of liquid-phase sintering are provided, and the strength properties of the finished product are enhanced. The involvement of a part of metallurgical wastes in the fermentation domain complex allows to significantly expand the resource base of iron ore components, reduce the cost of input raw materials and improve the environmental situation.

Herbal medicinal products would be affected by the quality of raw materials. In turn, the quality of raw material will also be influenced by various factors such as soil conditions, cultivation, post-harvest processing, and the processing of raw materials into crude drug or extract. Therefore, in order to make good herbal medicines, it is necessary to make standardization of herbal extracts that produced herbal medicines that have the same quality and functions of effectiveness in each process. From preliminary studies that have been done, Centella asiatica is one of the potential plants as a source of hepatoprotective compounds. Test in vivo and in vitro against Centella asiatica extracts have shown very good results. Ethyl acetate extract with 17.5 mg/kg of doses body weight and butanol 228.8 mg/kgof doses body weight has been applied for in vivo test using mice induced by CCl4; theydemonstrated hepatoprotective effects. Ethyl acetate extracts were able to reduce levels of the enzyme alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) by 56 % and 44 % respectively while butanol extract can reduce the enzymes AST levels by 3%. Standardizationof Centella asiatica extract performed in this study was the characterization of the extract in the form of non-specific and specific parameters corresponding to the reference of PPOMN (Ministry of health Republic of Indonesia, 2000) such as levels of drying shrinkage, ash content, total plate count microbial contamination, levels of water-soluble compounds, levels of compounds that are soluble in ethanol, phytochemical test, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and the determination of Pb and Cd weight.The results showed that non-specific parameters for the ethanol extract of Centella asiatica were requirements based on Herbal Pharmacopoeia in 2008 which includes parameters such as determination of shrinkage on drying ≤ 10%, ash content ≤ 16.6% and negative microbial contamination. Specific parameters for the ethanol extract of Centella asiatica have met the requirements of Herbal pharmacopeia in 2008.Keywords: Centellaasiatica, hepatoprotective, standardized herbal medicine, specificparameters, and non-specific parameters

Simplicia of turmeric and ginger is widely cultivated and developed by local farmers. Making these simplicia often does not meet the quality requirements because the process is still traditional and there are no guidelines used, there are still many raw materials for turmeric and ginger. The farmers of Ponorogo Regency cannot penetrate the traditional drug factory market. Objective: To determine the quality of turmeric and curcuma simplicia in Ponorogo. Method: Simplicia samples originating from Slahung village, Slahung sub-district, Ponrogo Regency were taken by purposive sampling. Quality testing is carried out according to FHI Issue I of 2008 and Republic of Indonesia BPOM Regulation Number 12 of 2014. Results: In testing turmeric rhizomes, referring to BPOM Number 12 of 2014 on water content testing, AKK test and ALT test meet the requirements. In the first edition of FHI parameters in 2008 did not meet the requirements of the curcuminoid test parameters, total ash content test, acid insoluble ash test, ethanol soluble extract test, water soluble juice test, but at the test of essential oil content and shrinkage test drying meets the requirements. None of the ginger rhizomes meet the quality test requirements. Conclusions and suggestions: Simplicia of turmeric and ginger in Ponorogo Regency has not met the quality requirements of traditional medicine and it is expected that farmers improve in the planting, harvesting and post-harvesting processes.
