Mukopolisakaridosis tipe II (MPS II) merupakan penyakit kelainan lisosomal langka yang disebabkan oleh mutasi pada gen iduronat 2-sulfatase (IDS) dapat menyebabkan disfungsi dari enzim I2S yang dihasilkan sehingga molekul heparan sulfat (HS) dan dermatan sulfat (DS) terakumulasi pada jaringan. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis hubungan kadar HS dan DS urin dengan jenis mutasi gen IDS pada penderita MPS II di Indonesia. Data susunan nukleotida gen IDS dari tujuh pasien MPS II dianalisis untuk melihat jenis mutasi dan dibuat model 3D proteinnya. Analisis 3D protein akan dikorelasikan dengan kadar HS dan DS urin pasien tersebut yang diukur menggunakan metode Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Hasil analisis mutasi ditemukan beberapa jenis mutasi, seperti mutasi nonsense (1/7), delesi (2/7), insersi (1/7), dan missense (3/7). Dari ketujuh pasien tersebut, tiga diantaranya (P2, P6, P7) telah menjalani terapi ERT. Kadar HS urin dari ketujuh pasien menunjukkan peningkatan yang beragam dibandingkan dengan kadar HS normal. Berbeda dengan HS, kadar DS urin sampel pasien ada yang mengalami sedikit peningkatan (P1, P2, P7) dan ada pula yang tetap berada pada rentang kadar DS normal (P3, P4, P5, P6). Keragaman kadar HS dan DS sampel pasien tersebut sangat dipengaruhi oleh letak mutasi, jenis mutasi, diagnosis dan prognosis yang ditegakkan sedini mungkin, terapi ERT yang telah dilakukan pasie, durasi ERT, dan respon masing-masing pasien terhadap pengobatan yang telah diberikan. ......Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) is a rare lysosomal disorder caused by mutations in the iduronat 2-sulfatase (IDS) gene that can cause dysfunction of I2S enzyme so that the heparan sulfate (HS) and dermatan sulfate (DS) molecules accumulate in the tissue. This study was conducted to determine and analyze the relationship of urinary HS and DS levels with the type of IDS gene mutation in MPS II patients in Indonesia. The nucleotide of IDS genes sequences from seven MPS II patients were analyzed to see the type of mutation and the 3D protein model was made. 3D protein analysis will be correlated with urinary HS and DS levels of the patients measured by using the Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method. Results of mutation analysis results found several types of mutations, such as nonsense mutations (1/7), deletions (2/7), insertions (1/7), and missense (3/7). From the seven patients, three of them (P2, P6, P7) had undergone ERT therapy. The urine HS level of the seven patients showed a varied increase compared to normal HS levels. In contrast to HS, the urine DS level of the sample of patients had a slight increase (P1, P2, P7) and some remained in the normal DS level range (P3, P4, P5, P6). The diversity of HS and DS levels of the patient's samples is strongly influenced by the location of the mutation, type of mutation, diagnosis and prognosis that is enforced as early as possible, ERT therapy has been carried out, ERT duration, and each patient's response to the treatment given.

Background: Glucosamine, chondroitinsulfate are frequently used to prevent further joint degeneration in osteoarthritis (OA). Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a supplement containing organic sulphur and also reported to slow anatomical joint progressivity in the knee OA. The MSM is often combined with glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate. However, there are controversies whether glucosamine chondroitin sulfate or their combination with methylsulfonylmethane could effectively reduce pain in OA. This study is aimed to compare clinical outcome of glucosamine chondroitin sulfate (GC), glucosamine chondroitin sulfate methylsulfonylmethane (GCM), and placeboin patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) Kellgren Lawrence grade I II. Methods: a double blind, randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted on 147 patients with knee OA Kellgren Lawrence grade I II. Patients were allocated by permuted block randomization into three groups: GC (n=49), GCM (n=50), or placebo (n=48) groups. GC group received 1500 mg of glucosamine + 1200 mg of chondroitin sulfate + 500 mg of saccharumlactis; GCM group received 1500 mg of glucosamine + 1200 mg of chondroitin sulfate + 500 mg of MSM; while placebo group received three matching capsules of saccharumlactis. The drugs were administered once daily for 3 consecutive months VAS and WOMAC scores were measured before treatment, then at 4th, 8th and 12th week after treatment. Results: on statistical analysis it was found that at the 12th week, there are significant difference between three treatment groups on the WOMAC score (p=0.03) and on the VAS score (p=0.004). When analyzed between weeks, GCM treatment group was found statistically significant on WOMAC score (p=0.01) and VAS score (p<0.001). Comparing the score difference between weeks, WOMAC score analysis showed significant difference between GC, GCM, and placebo in week 4 (p=0.049) and week 12 (p=0.01). In addition, VAS score also showed significant difference between groups in week 8 (p=0.006) and week 12 (p<0.001). Conclusion: combination of glucosamine chondroitinsulfate methylsulfonylmethane showed clinical benefit for patients with knee OAK ellgren Lawrence grade I II compared with GC and placebo. GC did not make clinical improvement in overall groups of patients with knee OA Kellgren Lawrence grade I II.

Tulang rawan merupakan limbah yang dihasilkan industri perikanan dan peternakan di Indonesia. Tulang rawan merupakan sumber glikosaminoglikan (GAG) yang baik. GAG yang terkandung dalam tulang ikan sebagian besar terdiri dari kondroitin-4-sulfat dan kondroitin-6-sulfat dalam bentuk proteoglikan (Garnjanagoonchorn, 2007). Kondroitin sulfat adalah polimer yang terjadi alami dalam tubuh manusia, terutama di bagian tulang rawan dan sendi, namun berkurang produksinya karena pertambahan usia (Lauder, 2009). Kondroitin sulfat juga banyak digunakan sebagai suplemen makanan karena sudah banyak diteliti manfaatnya untuk kesehatan tulang rawan dan pengobatan osteoartritis yang aman bagi tubuh, dengan mekanisme kerjanya yaitu meningkatkan konsentrasi GAG sendi dan meningkatkan viskositas cairan sendi dan membantu menjaga tulang rawan dengan menyerap cairan ke dalam jaringan ikat sehingga merangsang pertumbuhan tulang yang baru. Hingga saat ini masih banyak permasalahan mengenai ekstraksi kondroitin sulfat selain karena sumbernya menghasilkan yield yang beragam. Metode ekstraksi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah ekstraksi mekanokemikal, yang dapat mengambil molekul kondroitin sulfat dari matriks tulang tanpa mengubah bentuk molekulnya karena adanya zat kimia sebagai solvennya. Cara ekstraksi secara mekanokemikal tidak menggunakan solven beracun yang dapat membahayakan tubuh manusia, sehingga dapat dikonsumsi dengan aman. Produk dari teknologi ekstraksi kondroitin sulfat secara mekanokemikal dari limbah ikan patin, ikan salmon, dan ikan kakap ini diharapkan dapat membantu mengatasi berbagai masalah tulang sendi yang dialami penderita dengan aman, mengurangi pencemaran lingkungan dari limbah industri pengalengan dan pengeringan ikan, serta tersedia dalam jumlah banyak di pasaran bebas dan dapat diperoleh dengan harga yang jauh lebih ekonomis sehingga dapat menjangkau masyarakat luas.

ABSTRACT
Cartilage is the waste produced by the fisheries and farms in Indonesia. Cartilage is an excellent source of glycosaminoglycans (GAG). GAG that is contained in fish bone consists mostly of chondroitin-4- sulfate and chondroitin-6-sulfate in the form of proteoglycans (Garnjanagoonchorn, 2007). Chondroitin sulfate is a polymer that existed naturally in the human body, particularly in the cartilage and joints, but the production decreases due to aging (Lauder, 2009). Chondroitin sulfate is also widely used as a dietary supplement since some studies show that it has many health benefits for cartilage and osteoarthritis treatment which is safe for the body, with its mechanism of action that increases the concentration of GAG in joints, increase joint’s fluid viscosity, and helps keep cartilage to absorb fluid into the connective tissue, thus stimulating the growth of new cartilage. Until now there are still many problems concerning the extraction of chondroitin sulfate in addition to the source-yielding variety. Extraction methods used in this study is the mechanochemical extraction, which could extract chondroitin sulfate molecule from bone matrix without changing the structure of the target molecule for the minimal use of chemical substances as its solvent. Mechanochemical extraction does not use toxic solvents, which can be harmful for the human body, so it can be consumed safely. The mechanochemical extraction of chondroitin sulfate technology is performed on industrial waste of catfish, salmon, and snapper and the product is expected to safely help overcome various joint problems experienced by patients, reduce environmental pollution from fish canning and drying industrial waste, and is available in large quantities on the market and can be obtained at a much more economical price so as to reach the wider community.

Pengolahan bijih nikel laterit untuk menghasilkan feronikel memerlukan konsumsi energi yang tinggi. Sehingga perlu teknik pengolahan bijih nikel laterit terutama yang berkadar rendah agar tetap ekonomis. Reduksi selektif bijih nikel laterit diaggap sebagai proses yang potensial untuk menghasilkan nikel berkadar tinggi pada feronikel. Reduksi selektif terjadi karena penambahan sejumlah aditif pada bijih nikel laterit kemudian dilakukan separasi magnetik. Pada penelitian ini, digunakan aditif natrium karbonat, natrium klorida dan natrium sulfat serta 5 arang cangkang sawit sebagai reduktor. Reduksi dilakukan pada variasi temperatur 950, 1050 dan 1150 oC selama 60 menit. Kemudian dilakukan metode separasi magnetik basah dengan kekuatan magnet 500 Gauss untuk memisahkan konsentrat yang bersifat magnetik dan tailing. Karakterisasi bijih laterit hasil reduksi dilakukan menggunakan X-ray Diffraction XRD , mikroskop optik dan Scanning Electron Microscope SEM yang dilengkapi Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy EDS serta konsentrat feronikel dan tailing diidentifikasi menggunakan X-ray Fluororescene XRF. Hasil percobaan menunjukkan bahwa penambahan aditif menghasilkan peningkatan kadar dan recovery nikel serta recovery besi pada konsentrat jika dibandingkan dengan bijih reduksi tanpa penambahan aditif. Penambahan 15 aditif natrium sulfat dapat meningkatkan kadar dan recovery nikel hingga mencapai 5,3 dan 83,7 pada temperatur reduksi 1150 oC selama 60 menit. Pada penambahan 5 aditif natrium karbonat dan natrium klorida menghasilkan recovery nikel optimum sebesar 73,1 dan 72,8. Peningkatan temperatur reduksi hingga 1150 oC selama 60 menit berpotensi meningkatkan ukuran partikel feronikel, dengan penambahan dosis 10 natrium sulfat, natrium karbonat dan natrium klorida dihasilkan rata-rata ukuran partikel feronikel sebesar 30,6 mm, 12,8 mm dan 8,0 mm hingga 30,6 mm. Partikel feronikel mengalami aglomerasi seiring dengan peningkatan temperatur pada penambahan aditif yang memberikan kondisi yang menguntungkan untuk migrasi dan agregasi Ni dan Fe.

The processing of nickel laterite to produce ferronickel requires high energy consumption. Therefore, it needs low cost technology in mineral processing the low grade nickel laterite to keep it economically. Selective reduction of nickel laterite ore is a potential method for producing high grade ferronickel. Selective reduction is performed due to the addition of additives to lateritic nickel ore and followed by magnetic separation. In this study, the additives were sodium carbonate, sodium chloride and sodium sulphate and 5 palm shell charcoal were used as reducing agents. The temperature reduction was carried out at 950 and 1150 oC for 60 min. Magnetic separation used in this study was a wet magnetic separation with 500 Gauss and the magnetic product magnetic product that was resulted from the magnetic separation was ferronickel concentrate. The characterization of reduced ore was performed by using by X ray Diffraction XRD , optical microscope and Scanning Electron Microscope SEM with Energy Dispersive X ray Spectroscopy EDS and ferronickel concentrate was identified by X ray Fluororescene XRF. The results showed that the addition of additives was significantly affected to the increasing of nickel grade, nickel recovery and iron recovery at concentrate than the reduced ores without additives. When the sodium sulfate dosage was increased to 15 at 1150 oC for 60 min, the nickel grade and nickel recovery were increased to 5.3 and 83.7 , respectively. By the increasing of the addition of sodium carbonate and sodium chloride up to 5 , the yielded optimum nickel recovery was 73.1 and 72.8 , respectively. The increasing of reduction temperature to 1150 oC for 60 min potentially increased the particle size of ferronickel up to 30.6 m by the addition of a 10 sodium sulfate. In the presence of sodium carbonate and sodium chloride result on the average of ferronickel particle size approximately 12.8 and 8.0 m, respectively. The ferronickel particle was agglomerated with increasing reduction temperature and addition additives and it provides favorable conditions for the migration and aggregation of Ni and Fe.

ABSTRACT
Oil palm is an oil plant which is of great importance for both the Thai and the world economies. Oil palm trees have a life span of approximately 20-25 years before a gradual erosion of yield sets in. Oil palm trunk (OPT) is an agricultural residue waste from oil palm re-plantation which is rich in cellulose but utilized ineffectively. One way for OPT utilization is cellulose hydrogel production. In this study, cellulose hydrogel was prepared by dissolving cellulose from OPT with 7% (w/v) of lithium chloride in dimethylacetamide (LiCl/DMAc) to create a porous hydrogel by 1, 3, 5, 8 and 10% (w/v) of (NH4)2SO4 for 3, 5 and 10 minutes. After that, it was found that soaking cellulose hydrogel in 8% (w/v) of (NH4)2SO4 solution for 5 minutes created light-browed cellulose hydrogel with an average Shore A hardness of 41 ± 1.13 and a maximum swelling equal to 90%. The chemical functional group and cross-section morphology of cellulose hydrogel were determined using Attenuated total reflectance - Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively.
