Abstract

Acne vulgaris is a common skin problem often caused by genetic, hormonal, dietary, psychological factors, climate, P. acnes bacterial infection, and cosmetic use (Sampelan et al., 2013). Gel preparations are chosen for their cooling effect, ease of spreading, and easy washability. Turmeric (Curcuma domestica Val.), a tropical plant originating from Southeast Asia, has long been utilized as a preventive and curative agent for various diseases, including its potential antibacterial properties. This study aimed to determine the effect of varying concentrations of turmeric extract (5%, 7.5%, and 10%) on the physicochemical characteristics and stability of gel preparations using the freeze-thaw cycling method. Turmeric extract was prepared by maceration using 96% ethanol solvent. The gel formula contained CMC-Na as a base, citrate buffer, propylene glycol, glycerin, PEG 400, Na EDTA, TiO2, and aquadest. The gel preparations were evaluated for physical characteristics (organoleptic, homogeneity, viscosity, flow type, spreadability) and chemical characteristics (pH), as well as their stability. The evaluation results showed that variations in turmeric extract concentration significantly affected the organoleptic properties (color change), viscosity, spreadability, and pH of the preparations. Although all formulas were homogeneous, the freeze-thaw cycling stability test revealed that Formula I (5%) was physically unstable (phase separation) and experienced a significant decrease in pH (p<0.005), indicating the instability of the turmeric gel preparation due to temperature influence. However, all preparations remained homogeneous and their pH stayed within the safe range for skin. Thus, this study confirms the significant influence of turmeric extract concentration on the characteristics and stability of the gel, with higher concentrations (7.5% and 10%) showing better physical stability.

Abstract

Lansia merupakan kelompok rentan yang membutuhkan perhatian khusus dalam menjaga kesehatan dan kemandirian. Pemanfaatan herbal alami sebagai upaya promotif dan preventif kesehatan perlu disertai dengan pengetahuan yang tepat agar penggunaannya aman dan efektif. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan lansia mengenai penggunaan herbal alami yang aman dan sederhana melalui edukasi kesehatan berbasis kuesioner pretest–posttest. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Kelurahan Tulusrejo dengan melibatkan 50 lansia sebagai peserta. Tahapan kegiatan meliputi pengisian pretest, penyampaian materi edukasi secara interaktif mengenai manfaat dan cara penggunaan herbal alami seperti jahe, sereh, dan kayu manis, serta pengisian posttest. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan skor pengetahuan lansia secara signifikan setelah diberikan edukasi (p 0,05). Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa edukasi kesehatan berbasis kuesioner efektif dalam meningkatkan pemahaman lansia terkait pemanfaatan herbal alami yang aman. Program ini direkomendasikan untuk dilaksanakan secara berkelanjutan melalui Posyandu Lansia sebagai upaya peningkatan kesehatan masyarakat.
