This study aimed to develop a simple acid-base reaction-based screening method for distinguishing between GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) and non-GMO soybeans as a practical alternative to expensive and expensive molecular methods. Twenty GMO soybean samples, 20 non-GMO samples, and three mixtures with ratios of 10%, 25%, and 50% were analyzed using 0.01–0.1 N HCl and 0.1 N NaOH solutions. Observation parameters included color change, pH, and absorbance using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results showed that at a concentration of 0.01 N HCl, the color difference was most pronounced. The GMO sample solution showed a red color, while the non-GMO sample solution showed a green color. At higher concentrations, the differences became more subtle or difficult to distinguish. Validation using a PCR assay as the gold standard yielded sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of >95%, indicating the reliability of this method as an initial screening technique. This physicochemical approach is considered effective for rapid, inexpensive, and easily implemented screening in food industry laboratories, particularly for monitoring non-GMO soybean raw materials and preventing food fraud. Therefore, this acid-base method has the potential to be a practical alternative solution for industry and education in detecting indications of GMOs before further confirmation with molecular methods.

This study aims to analyze the influence of company characteristics, including Current Ratio, Debt to Asset Ratio, and Company Size, on Financial Performance. The population studied consists of companies in the F& B sector listed on the IDX during the period 2020-2024. The sample in this study was selected using the purposive sampling method. Out of the 24 companies listed in the sector, 3 companies were eliminated because they did not meet the established criteria, resulting in a final sample size of 21 companies. To test the influence of independent variables on the dependent variable, the multiple linear regression analysis technique was applied. The research results show that Company Size has a positive and significant effect on financial performance, while the Debt to Asset Ratio has a negative and significant effect on financial performance. On the other hand, the Current Ratio does not show a significant effect on financial performance. However, the Current Ratio does not appear to significantly affect financial performance. While it is a measure of liquidity, the results of this study suggest that liquidity alone does not guarantee profitability or financial success. It is possible that other factors, such as market conditions or management practices, may play a more dominant role in influencing financial performance. Overall, this research emphasizes the need for companies in the F&B sector to carefully manage their debt levels and consider the benefits of growing their company size to improve financial performance. Future studies could explore the role of other factors, such as operational efficiency and market conditions, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of what drives financial success in the industry.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) is an infectious disease caused by the dengue virus and transmitted through the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito. The high risk of dengue transmission is greatly influenced by the density of mosquito larvae which correlates with environmental conditions and community behavior. This study aims to describe the density level of Aedes aegypti mosquito larvae in the working area of the Gandus Health Center in Palembang City in 2025 through the measurement of House Index (HI), Container Index (CI), Breteau Index (BI), Larvae-Free Numbers (ABJ), and Density Figure (DF). The method used was descriptive observational with a purposive proportional random sampling technique on 100 households in three RTs. Data was collected through direct observation using checklist sheets. The results showed that the HI was 66%, CI was 44%, BI was 107%, and ABJ was only 34%, which indicates that the larval density is very high and far below the WHO standard (≥ 95%). The DF value is in the range of 7–9, reinforcing the finding of high vector density. This condition shows that the area is at high risk of dengue transmission. Interventions are needed in the form of regular mosquito nest eradication (PSN), increasing public education, and strengthening the role of jumantic cadres in sustainable vector control.

The magnesium alloy AZ31B is increasingly used in biomedical applications, particularly as an implant material, due to its relatively low aluminum content and mechanical properties that closely resemble those of bone. Additionally, AZ31B exhibits corrosion resistance that is suitable for biological environments. These properties make it a promising material for bone implants. However, one of the main challenges in using magnesium is its high degradation rate in the body, which can affect the stability and function of the implant. Therefore, surface modification is necessary to control the degradation rate and enhance the material's durability. One effective method to reduce the corrosion rate of AZ31B is the Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) technique. PEO can form a hard, protective oxide layer on the surface of the metal, which helps improve its corrosion resistance. This study aims to explore the effect of the mass composition of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) on the PEO coating formed on the AZ31B substrate. The compositions used in this study were 70%:30%, 50%:50%, 40%:60%, and 60%:40%, with an electrolyte solution containing Na₂SiO₃ (2.5 g/L) and KOH (2 g/L). Corrosion characteristics of the coating were evaluated using two methods: weight loss and polarization tests. The results showed that the 70%:30% HAp:TCP composition provided the most optimal results. The polarization test recorded a corrosion rate of 0.22 mpy, while the weight loss test showed a corrosion rate of 0.29 mpy. These findings indicate that the PEO coating with the 70%:30% HAp:TCP composition effectively reduces the corrosion rate of AZ31B, enhancing its potential for biomedical implant applications, particularly in environments where corrosion resistance is crucial for long-term performance in the body.

Character education is a fundamental aspect in the effort to shape individuals with morals, ethics, and responsibility amidst the currents of globalization and modernization. The phenomenon of moral crisis, ethical degradation, and dehumanization emphasizes the urgency of character education that is not only oriented towards intellectual intelligence, but also emphasizes spiritual and social values. In this context, the thoughts of Ahmad Amin, a modern Islamic thinker, are relevant to be re-examined. Ahmad Amin emphasized the importance of Islamic values ​​as a foundation for ethics and morality that are both universal and contextual, thus able to address the needs of modern humans who are facing complex challenges in various aspects of life. This study uses a library research method with a qualitative approach. The main data sources are Ahmad Amin's works related to the concept of morals and education, supplemented by supporting literature discussing character education and its relevance in today's development. The analysis was conducted descriptively and analytically to examine Ahmad Amin's ideas and relate them to the needs of modern society. The results of the study indicate that Ahmad Amin's thoughts on character education are rooted in Islamic moral principles that emphasize the balance between spiritual, intellectual, and social aspects. Values ​​such as honesty, responsibility, discipline, and social awareness are at the heart of healthy character development. This thinking is relevant to the needs of the modern era, marked by a moral crisis, and therefore can serve as an alternative paradigm for character education that adapts to current developments while remaining grounded in Islamic values. Therefore, it can be concluded that Ahmad Amin's thinking is not only of historical value but also makes a significant contribution to developing character education based on Islamic values, capable of maintaining spiritual orientation while addressing the challenges of modernity.
