Food modification is still quite common in the community, especially the processing of candy, jelly drinks and dawet. The manufacture of candy, jelly drinks and dawet can be modified from the raw material of grass jelly leaves which have a lot of protein and vitamin content. The women of the Teger Farmer Group, Mangunsari Village, Gunungpati District, Semarang City mostly work as farmers and factory workers and do not quite know what food modification is, especially those made from grass jelly leaves. There are many grass jelly plants in the environment around the Teger Farmer Group that have not been utilized until now, so we aim to provide information to the Teger Farmer Group's mothers about preparations made from grass jelly leaves, which can be made into candy, dawet and jelly drinks that have a lot of content. nutrition. The service method was carried out with lectures, discussions and simulations of making processed products. The results of the service revealed that the Teger Farmers' Group, Mangunsari Village, Gunungpati District, Semarang City, mostly had eaten dawet and grass jelly drink, but had never eaten grass jelly candy. In addition, they also do not know how to make sweets, jelly drinks and dawet from grass jelly, and do not know what the ingredients are. Furthermore, at the end of this service activity, partners better understand how to make and nutritional content of all processed products from grass jelly.

ABSTRACT: Comparisons between the nutritional quality of organic and conventional fresh foods are frequently reported in the literature; however, discussion about processed foods is less frequent. Therefore, this study compared the nutritional content of processed products from both production systems using a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis, regarding aspects of raw material management and processing. The study reviewed scientific articles published between 2010 and 2020 and the data obtained were analyzed using the standardized mean difference method with Hedges’ adjustment and a random analytical model. Thirty-seven articles were selected, and the foods analyzed in the studies were grouped into five categories: meat products, dairy products, caught fish, wines, and fruit juices/pulps. In products of animal origin, the comparative focus shown was mainly that of the fatty acid profile, while in those of vegetable origin it was that of phytochemicals. Related to the comparison of nutrient contents, it was possible to verify the similarities in organic and conventional products in most studies; however, specific differences were verified (P < 0.05): organics contained more proteins (meat), omega 3 (dairy), and less linoleic acid (dairy and caught fish). Also, there were differences in the management of organic and conventional raw materials, and similarities in processing. Therefore, the choice for organic processed foods should not be made exclusively based on nutritional aspects, considering that the differences in nutrient contents in relation to those of conventional products are practically nonexistent.

The paper discusses and critiques the concept of the single engineering paradigm. This concepts allude to a future in which the control of matter and life, and life as matter, will be achieved by applying engineering principles; through nanotechnology, synthetic biology and, as some suggest, geo-engineering, cognitive engineering and neuro-engineering. We outline some issues in the short history of the field labelled as Synthetic Biology. Furthermore; we examine the way engineers, scientists, designers and artists are positioned and articulating the use of the tools of Synthetic Biology to expose some of the philosophical, ethical and political forces and considerations of today as well as some future scenarios. We suggest that one way to enable the possibilities of alternative frames of thought is to open up the know-how and the access to these technologies to other disciplines, including artistic.

Mycotoxin is widely known as one cause of foodborne disease, produced by toxigenic fungi. Any country should be aware about this high risk potency by knowing the mycotoxin, affected commodities, fungal sources, and toxicity effect to human or animal. Controlling mycotoxin could be done by physic, chemical, and biological methods. The microbial characteristic used for biological agent should be evaluated including the inability to produce toxic substance, tendency to multiply, colonize, survive, safety, and applicability to the environment. Studies related to mycotoxin biocontrol by using antagonistic microorganism can be focused on (1) the effect to the mycotoxin, (2) the growth of microorganism, or (3) the application to food both raw material and processed products. Consideration to combine more than one species of microorganism instead of a single species also has been taken to achieve more effective result.  For example, S. cerevisiae has been used together with LAB to control certain mycotoxin. Further studies are needed to develop the possibility of other biological agents and the effect of their application, which in the next have the potency as manufacturing products.

AbstractCarbon anodes are used in the electrolytic production of aluminum. The quality of anodes is directly related to the production cost, carbon and energy consumption, and environmental emissions. It is desired that the anodes have high density, low porosity/cracks, low electrical resistivity as well as low air and CO2 reactivities. Low resistivity of anodes reduces energy required to produce aluminum during electrolysis. The presence of cracks and pores increases the anode electrical resistivity. Therefore, it is important to know how and when the pores and cracks form during the anode production so that the necessary actions could be taken to prevent their formation. A study was carried out to investigate the effect of different anode production parameters such as anode composition, type of raw material used, time and top-former bellow pressure of vibro-compactor, green anode cooling medium, and heating rate used during baking on the crack formation. The anodes are fabricated at the carbon laboratory of University of Quebec at Chicoutimi (UQAC) and characterized by measuring their properties (density, electrical resistivity, and surface crack density). The anode properties, hence the anode quality, were correlated with the anode production parameters. Also, their tomographic analysis was carried out to visualize and quantify the internal cracks.

UKM (small and medium enterprises) in the Tembesi Tower, Tembesi sub-district, are not developing well. This is indicated by the low turnover obtained by each UKM (small and medium enterprise) in 1 month. customer expectations. New products must be made so that these small and medium businesses can survive and continue to exist. The new product must have a distinctive and good quality so that the product positioning is clearer and able to compete with other products on the market. This service activity aims to provide a solution to this by creating a new product in the form of a dab soap that is safe for health and environmentally friendly. Some soaps circulating in the market only prioritize cleaning power, but the chemical content in the soap is harmful to health and the environment. The impact of conventional soap on health is irritation of the skin which, if left for a long time, the irritation will turn into eczema. In addition, conventional soap also harms the environment because the raw material for soap comes from petroleum which is difficult to be broken down by bacteria. Community service activities are carried out in the form of coaching. The service team expects to increase the income and advantages of UKM (small and medium businesses) in the Tembesi Tower and to be able to create jobs or open a business with a revolutionary cream soap product design.
