Indonesia's biodiversity holds great potential for drug development, including through the use of traditional medicinal plants such as tapak liman (Elephantopus scaber L.), suruhan (Peperomia pellucida L. Kunth), and temu ireng (Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb.). These plants have been used in traditional medicine and are known to contain bioactive compounds with potential anticancer properties. Tapak liman contains compounds capable of inducing apoptosis in cancer cells. Suruhan is known to have cytotoxic and immunomodulatory effects, while temu ireng contains compounds with antioxidant and anticancer activity. This study aims to identify and quantify the bioactive compounds in these three plants using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and to explore their therapeutic potential in cancer treatment. The results of GC-MS analysis successfully identified six main compounds that have potential as anticancer agents, namely Phytol, Caryophyllene, Apiol, Germacrone, Germacrene B, and one additional compound. Temu ireng contains Germacrone, Germacrene B, and Caryophyllene, while suruhan contains Caryophyllene, Apiol, and Phytol. Meanwhile, tapak liman shows the presence of bioactive compounds that support cytotoxic activity. The focus of this study is on the interaction of bioactive compounds with the Bcl-2 protein, which plays a role in inhibiting apoptosis in cancer cells. Additionally, molecular analysis revealed that Germacrone, Germacrene B, Caryophyllene, and Apiol can also bind to the p53 protein, known as a guardian of the genome and a trigger for apoptosis. These findings suggest that the three plants have high potential as natural sources of anticancer agents. Further in vitro and in vivo studies are recommended to test the biological efficacy of these compounds in the context of cancer therapy, thereby bridging traditional knowledge with modern scientific approaches in the development of natural-based medications.

This community service program was implemented to strengthen the digital literacy and competencies of health cadres in Simogirang Village, Prambon Sub-district, Sidoarjo Regency, particularly in the recording and management of Posyandu (integrated health service post) data. The initiative responded to ongoing issues stemming from manual documentation methods, which were prone to human error, inefficiency, and lack of integration with regional health information systems. To address these challenges, the program delivered an IT-based training module using a combination of direct instruction, demonstrations, and hands-on simulations. The training emphasized the use of accessible and cost-effective tools such as Google Forms and Google Sheets, designed in alignment with the principles of adult learning (andragogy) and Kurt Lewin’s change management model to facilitate behavioral adaptation and technology acceptance among the participants. A total of 25 health cadres participated in the program. Pre- and post-training evaluations demonstrated significant improvement in digital skills, with 80% of participants achieving a minimum of 85% accuracy in completing digital forms and managing records. In addition, a prototype digital system based on Google Workspace was successfully piloted in two Posyandu locations. This system enhanced the timeliness, accuracy, and integration of health data reporting to local health centers (Puskesmas), offering a scalable and sustainable solution for grassroots healthcare data management. Despite the positive outcomes, the program also identified key challenges, notably limited internet infrastructure and varying levels of prior digital exposure among cadres. These findings underscore the need for continuous mentoring, support from local government stakeholders, and potential investment in digital infrastructure. Overall, the initiative contributes to Indonesia’s broader goals of digital transformation in public health, particularly at the village level.

Traditional medicine has been trusted for generations as an effective remedy for various health conditions and is widely recognized for its safety when compared to synthetic pharmaceuticals. One of the main reasons individuals choose herbal medicines is their relative affordability and the perception that they are free from harmful chemical additives. However, recent public warnings issued between 2020 and 2025 have revealed the presence of hazardous medicinal chemicals (Bahan Kimia Obat/BKO) such as sildenafil citrate and caffeine in some stamina-enhancing herbal products. This study aims to develop and validate an analytical method using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) coupled with densitometry for the detection of sildenafil citrate and caffeine in herbal medicines. The method was chosen due to its simplicity, low operational cost, and ability to effectively separate these two compounds. A category II validation was performed to determine the presence of impurities, with a focus on parameters including selectivity and the Limit of Detection (LOD). The mobile phase employed was a combination of chloroform and ethanol (9.5:0.5 v/v), and detection was carried out at 254 nm using a densitometer. The TLC results showed that sildenafil citrate and caffeine had Rf values of 0.32 and 0.52, respectively, with a resolution (Rs) of 2, indicating a good separation. The LOD for sildenafil citrate was 8.5418 ?l/ml (0.0854 mg per 600 mg sample), while the LOD for caffeine was 4.7987 ?l/ml (0.0959 mg per 600 mg sample). These findings highlight the importance of routine quality control testing to ensure the safety and authenticity of herbal medicines in the market.

This This study systematically reviews the impact of tax sanctions and other influencing factors on tax compliance behavior among Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia. Through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of six empirical studies published between 2021–2025, the analysis reveals that tax sanctions significantly enhance compliance, but their effectiveness depends on mediating variables such as tax literacy, perceptions of fairness, and the quality of tax services. Key findings indicate that while sanctions positively influence compliance, their impact is diminished without adequate taxpayer education or equitable enforcement. Contextual factors like financial constraints and social norms further modulate compliance behavior. The study underscores the need for a holistic policy approach, integrating sanctions with educational programs, improved digital services, and tailored incentives to foster voluntary compliance. Practical recommendations include enhancing MSMEs’ tax literacy, ensuring consistent sanction implementation, and optimizing e-filing systems. This synthesis contributes to the tax compliance literature by highlighting the interplay between punitive measures and socio-economic contexts in shaping MSMEs’ fiscal behavior.
 

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between family environment and the attitude of responsibility of third grade students at MI Ar Risalah Ngawi.  The technique used was quantitative, with a correlational research design.  The population of this study was all third grade students totaling ten people, who were selected using a total sample approach. The data collection tool is a questionnaire with ten statement questions on each variable and a four-point Likert scale. Preliminary tests were conducted using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and the ANOVA linearity test. Hypothesis testing used the Pearson product moment correlation technique. The analysis results showed a correlation coefficient of r = 0.226 with p = 0.530. This finding indicates that there is no significant relationship between the family environment and students' sense of responsibility. The family environment only contributes 5.1% to variations in students' sense of responsibility, while the rest is influenced by other factors. This study suggests the need for further exploration of other factors that are more dominant in shaping students' sense of responsibility at the elementary school level.

The development of electric vehicles (EV) as part of the transformation of the global transportation system offers a strategic solution to support economic sustainability and environmental preservation. This study aims to analyze the impact of EVs on infrastructure and develop sustainable solutions through a qualitative approach with a case study method. The results of the study indicate that EV adoption can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve urban air quality, and support energy efficiency. In addition, the development of the EV industry drives economic growth through job creation and utilization of local resources, especially in the context of implementing the Domestic Component Level (TKDN).
