Abstract

Soap is a cosmetic product that can kill bacteria that cause skin infections. Soap preparations can be innovated into paper hand-washing soap that is practical, hygienic, and effective in killing bacteria. A plasticizer, namely glycerin, influences the texture of paper soap. Glycerin in the formulation of paper hand-washing soap can weaken the hardness of the preparation and provide flexibility, resulting in thin soap-like paper. This research aimed to determine the effect of glycerin concentration on the physical and hedonic quality tests of paper hand-washing soap preparations. This research uses an experimental approach with a pre-experimental one-shot case study design. The results of the physical quality test of kenikir leaf ethanol extract paper soap with variations in glycerin concentration in the organoleptic test had a light yellow color, a grape fragrance, a stiff solid shape, elastic, and very elastic and homogeneous. The addition of variations in glycerin concentration affects the results of the physical quality assessment of water content and hedonic tests for texture. However, it does not affect the results of physical quality tests, pH, foam height, and hedonic tests for color and aroma of the preparation.

Abstract

Lime peel (Citrus aurantifolia) is a horticultural waste whose utilization has not been optimal and contributes 50-65% of the residue of the total weight so that if lime peel is not utilized it can cause environmental pollution. Lime peel contains saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, and essential oils that have inhibitory properties so that they can be utilized as a form of liquid soap preparation from lime peel extract. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the inhibitory power of liquid soap preparations from lime peel extract (Citrus aurantifolia) containing essential oils as active substances against Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria. This study used an experimental research method with a disc diffusion technique method that determined the inhibition zone. Liquid soap with lime peel essential oil 6% had effective inhibitory power against Staphylococcus epidermidis with an average diameter of the inhibition zone of 10.21 mm which is included in the strong category. The positive control and basic control resulted in an inhibition zone formed of 14.42 mm and 7,33 mm respectively. The effectiveness of strong inhibition was because essential oils contain phenol compounds that had hydrophobic properties by splitting the fat layer on the mitochondrial cell membrane and bacteria which causes cells to become damaged and results in extensive leakage in bacterial cells so that bacteria die. Data analysis using bivariate analysis with One Way Anova test showed that essential oils did not have a significant effect on the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria compared to basic control.
