Pharmaceutical packaging plays an important role in maintaining the stability, safety, and effectiveness of drug products during storage and distribution. Drug stability can be affected by various environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, oxygen, and light. Therefore, packaging innovation is a crucial strategy to extend the shelf life of drugs and maintain product quality, especially for sensitive preparations such as injections, transdermal patches, and biologics. This study is a literature review that aims to evaluate the impact of packaging innovation on the physical and chemical stability of pharmaceutical products. This study confirms that packaging selection is not just a technical aspect, but a vital strategy in ensuring pharmaceutical quality. Further research is needed to integrate smart packaging and advanced barrier technologies into modern pharmaceutical distribution systems.

Whistleblowing according to Park et al. (2008) is reporting improper actions to individuals or organizations believed to have the power to stop it. Singleton (2010) defines fraud as the behavior of obtaining beneficial benefits intentionally by abusing work / position or taking assets / resources in the company. In the context of its implementation, whistleblowing is still questionable regarding its effectiveness in preventing fraud in the corporate environment, especially to create transparency and integrity. This study uses a qualitative method that focuses on reviewing the natural setting of a phenomenon that has occurred and produces a narrative description. The review shows that the lack of effectiveness of whistleblowing can be influenced by several factors, such as the lack of company socialization to employees; the absence of employee trust in the system; or the lack of whistleblower protection.

The digital era has brought major changes to various aspects of life, including in the world of education. One of the main challenges that has emerged is how to shape the character of the younger generation amidst the flow of information that is so fast, free, and uncontrolled. The negative influence of social media, the decline in direct social interaction, and weak control over digital content consumed by students are serious obstacles in the implementation of character education. This article discusses these challenges while offering strategies that can be implemented by educators, parents, and educational institutions. The strategies outlined include the wise integration of technology in character learning, strengthening the role of the family as the first and foremost educational environment, and the importance of role models and consistency of moral values in everyday life. Through an adaptive, collaborative, and sustainable approach, character education can remain the foundation in forming a generation that is not only intellectually intelligent, but also has integrity, responsibility, and noble character in the digital era.

Musa acuminata Colla var. Mulu Bebek is a high-quality banana from Ternate, North Maluku. Its conventional cultivation faces challenges due to Fusarium wilt, reducing productivity. In vitro culture offers a solution for rapid, disease-free seedling production. This study aims to examine the effect of BAP and picloram on shoot induction using a CRFD at various concentrations (0–3 ppm) and evaluate the percentage of live explants, emergence time, and number and length of shoots and roots. Results show that 1 ppm picloram accelerates root emergence, while 0 ppm promotes the fastest shoot emergence, the longest shoot and root lengths. 1 ppm BAP increases shoot numbers. The interaction of picloram and BAP has a significant effect on the parameters of the fastest root emergence time, namely 1 ppm picloram + 0 ppm BAP, 1 ppm and 3 ppm, the fastest shoot emergence time, namely without the addition of PGR, and the longest shoot length, 0 ppm picloram + 2 ppm BAP. The combination of 0 ppm picloram + 1 ppm BAP is the optimal condition for a percentage of 100% live explants, the fastest time for root emergence, the highest number of shoots and roots, the longest shoot and root length and the optimal condition for the fastest time for shoot emergence is 0 picloram + 0 ppm BAP. This study provides insight into the role of BAP and picloram in inducing banana shoots that has not been reported before. The micropropagation media formula obtained in this study is an effort to improve the quality of healthy banana seedlings in the future.

The transition to college life often requires students to face various challenges and significant changes in their lives. Individuals who have a high level of subjective well-being tend to have the ability to assess life events in a more positive way. This study aims to analyze the relationship between religiosity and grit with subjective well-being in Psychology students at Universitas Islam 45 Bekasi. This study used a quantitative method involving 134 respondents who were determined using a non-probability sampling technique with a consecutive sampling method. Data collection was carried out using three psychological scales, namely the religiosity scale, the grit scale, and the subjective well-being scale, and the data analysis techniques applied included assumption tests using normality and linearity tests, as well as hypothesis tests using correlation tests and multiple linear regression analysis. The results showed that there was a significant positive relationship between religiosity and subjective well-being (r = 0.546, p <0.005), as well as between grit and subjective well-being (r = 0.738, p <0.005). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that religiosity and grit together could predict 57.6% of the variance in subjective well-being (R2 = 0.576), (F(2,121) = 89.037), (p < 0.001), while the remaining 42.4% was influenced by other factors.

Environmental degradation caused by excessive exploitation and natural damage has become increasingly concerning in the modern era. To address this issue, madrasahs, as Islamic educational institutions, play a crucial role in instilling environmental conservation values based on the teachings of the Qur'an and Hadith. This study aims to explore the Qur'an and Hadith-based educational approach implemented at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Ihyaul Islam Pakuniran in fostering students' awareness of their responsibilities toward environmental conservation. The study employs a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, aiming to deeply understand the teaching processes and the application of environmental education. Data were collected through interviews with the headmaster, teachers, and students, complemented by classroom observations and analysis of curriculum documents and teaching materials. Data validity was strengthened using triangulation to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the findings. The results show that integrating the teachings of the Qur'an and Hadith, such as the concept of maintaining environmental balance (mizan) and the prohibition of environmental destruction (fasad), successfully enhanced students' awareness of the importance of environmental preservation. Activities such as tree planting and waste management, in which students actively participate, reinforced their sense of responsibility toward environmental sustainability. This study concludes that the Qur'an and Hadith-based educational approach holds significant potential in shaping environmentally conscious generations capable of fulfilling their role as guardians of nature in accordance with Islamic teachings.
