Harmful Reciprocal Relationship Between Human and Nature Portrayed in the Epic Movie

Keywords: Ecocriticism, Human and Nature, Environmental, Epic Movie Environmental problems become the trending topic in development of modern technology era nowadays. The environmental problems are studied specifically in ecocriticism. These problems are usually caused by unbalance relationship betweenhuman and nature. In this research, the researcher analyzes harmful reciprocal relationship between human and nature portrayed in the Epic movie. The problem ofthe research is divided into two points; (1) The harmful reciprocal relationship between human and nature, (2) The impacts of the relationship between human andnature described in the Epic movie.This research uses qualitative method to analyze data because the data are in the form of utterances and figures taken from the movie. In addition, the researcher explains the result in the form of description rather than numeral. Hence, qualitativemethod is the most appropriate method to analyze Epic movie. Furthermore, Ecocriticism is used to analyze the movie.The result shows that humans can exploit nature as research object without any concern about the impacts. Nature is also exploited as medium to establish human\u27s power. Humans gain benefit from the relationship because they can improve their quality of life but nature becomes increasingly damaged. Moonhaven which is originally beautiful with balance ecosystem becomes unbalance and dry.The researcher suggests the next researchers to use Ecocriticsm theory in analyzing different movie like “The Lorax Movie” to show the impact of development of technology toward nature. This movie tells that humans create artificial natural object such as trees which are made of plastic. Moreover they must buy fresh oxygen to respire

Synthesis and Characterization of Collagen-Chitosan-Sodium Hyaluronates as Artificial Cornea

As reported by Riset Kesehatan Dasar, Indonesia facing a serious problem of blindness with 966.326 cases of 2 million population in 2013. Gold standard such as keratoplasty couldn’t completely heal corneal injury due to the recipient’s rejection and limited donor. In order to overcome those concerns, artificial corneal tissue needs to be developed to produce an artificial cornea which is biocompatible, supports corneal function, and applicable. This research was conducted to provide an initial description of Collagen – Chitosan - Natrium Hyaluronate (Col-Chi-NaHA) as an artificial cornea through FTIR analysis, hydrophilicity and water absorption measurement. The artificial cornea was synthesized by forming ratio of collagen 20% w/v and chitosan 10% w/v, both solutions were dissolved in 0,1 M and 0,6 M acetic acid separately. Into the mixed solution, NaHA was dripped slowly with variation of 0%,0,3%, and 0,6%. The homogenous solution was cast and heated for 24 hours at 35°C. The dry membranes were neutralized to obtain a pH around 7. From the analysis known that all of the characteristic bands of Col-Chi-NaHA could be observed in obtained membranes. Water absorption measurement demonstrated percentages over 90% on all membranes. The contact angle of obtained membranes was decreased by the addition of NaHA. The results showed that artificial cornea made from Col-Chi-NaHA successfully fabricated has hydrophilic properties to support cellular interaction and provide hydration to keep eye's clarity and permeability. Therefore, Col-Chi-NaHA could may be a suitable material for the tissue-engineered corne

Poly (1,8 Octanediol-co-Citrate) Hydroxyapatite Composite as Antibacterial Biodegradable Bone Screw

The high bone fracture rates reaching up to 300-400 cases per month have been treated with surgical procedure of internal fixation. Nevertheless, the commonly used metal screw has shown several weaknesses. Therefore, it is required bone screw of which primary characteristics include being biocompatible, bio-functional, biodegradable, and anticorrosive. The study aimed to synthesize Antibacterial Poly 1,8-Octanediol-co-Citrate (POC) and investigated the effect of chitosan on the antibacterial and compatibility characteristics of POC-HA composite as antibacterial biodegradable bone screw. The characterization were conducted on POC-HA composite to assess its functional cluster, antibacterial activity, cytotoxicity, degradation capacity, and morphology. Pre-polymer POC was composited with 62% nano-HA, followed by post-polymerization treatment. The sample then coated by chitosan with composition variations of 1%, 3%, and 5%. The nano-HA marked with the appearance of phosphate cluster on the wavenumber of 872.17 cm-1 and 559.51 cm-1, while the chitosan marked with C=O stretch cluster of esther at 1729 cm-1 from Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) measurement. The best result was obtained with 3% chitosan coating. The POCHA composites showed bacterial inhibiting ability of 16.92 mm with non-toxic characteristics. These results indicated that chitosan coating Poly 1,8-Octanediol-co-Citrate (POC)-Nano Hydroxyapatite composite is a potential candidate for an antibacterial biodegradable bone screw
