CONGRATULATION! NURKHASANAH MAHFUDH SUCCESSFULLY PUBLISHED HER RESEARCH IN INTERNATIONAL FOOD RESEARCH JOURNAL

Congratulation, Nurkhasanah Mahfudh successfully published her research entitled “Immunomodulatory Activity of Yogurt Fortified with Roselle (Hibiscus Sabdariffa L.) Extract”. Her research has published in International Food Research Journal on April 1st, 2021. (H-Index: 50; SJR: 0.303; Impact Factor: 1.333)

Her research results explained that yogurt is a probiotic food that can boost the immune system even when added with fruit extract, such as roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa). An in vivo study was carried out to prove the potency of yogurt fortified with roselle extract. The research result showed that yogurt fortified with roselle extract can increase the immune response by enhancing expressions of interleukin-10 and interleukin-14, macrophage phagocytosis activity, and lymphocyte proliferation.

We hope this achievement can trigger the other lecturers’ enthusiasm to conduct good researches and publish their research in high impact reputable journals. All of them are full of blessings and benefits as always. Aamiin…

SELAMAT, IBU NURKHASANAH MAHFUDH BERHASIL MEMPUBLIKASIKAN HASIL RISETNYA DI INTERNATIONAL FOOD RESEARCH JOURNAL

Selamat, Ibu Nurkhasanah Mahfudh berhasil mempublikasikan hasil risetnya yang berjudul “Immunomodulatory Activity of Yogurt Fortified with Roselle (Hibiscus Sabdariffa L.) Extract”. Hasil riset beliau dipublikasikan di International Food Research Journal pada 1 April 2021. (H-Index: 50; SJR: 0.303; Impact Factor: 1.333)

Hasil riset nya menjelaskan bahwa yogurt merupakan makanan probiotik yang dapat meningkatkan sistem kekebalan tubuh, bahkan jika ditambahkan ekstrak buah, seperti rosella (Hibiscus sabdariffa). Sebuah studi in vivo dilakukan untuk membuktikan potensi yogurt yang diperkaya ekstrak rosella. Hasil riset tersebut menunjukkan bahwa yogurt yang diperkaya ekstrak rosella dapat meningkatkan respon imun dengan meningkatkan ekspresi interleukin-10 dan interleukin-14, aktivitas fagositosis makrofag, dan limfosit proliferasi.

Semoga, pencapaian ini dapat memotivasi para dosen di Universitas Ahmad Dahlan, untuk terus mengembangkan risetnya dan mempublikasikan hasil riset tersebut di Jurnal yang baik.  Semoga semuanya penuh berkah dan manfaat bagi kita semua. Aamiin…
