Abstract

Economic stability is a fundamental concern faced by every nation, with monetary policy serving as a primary tool to maintain such stability, particularly in controlling inflation. This study aims to examine the impact of the Bank Indonesia interest rate (BI Rate), currency exchange rate, and money supply on the inflation rate in Indonesia. A quantitative research method was used with secondary data obtained from official publications of Bank Indonesia and the Central Statistics Agency (Badan Pusat Statistik). The study utilizes monthly time-series data covering the period from January 2021 to December 2024. In this research, inflation serves as the dependent variable, while the BI Rate, currency exchange rate, and money supply act as independent variables. The empirical results show that the currency exchange rate and money supply have a significant influence on inflation, whereas the BI Rate does not. These findings indicate that managing the exchange rate and controlling money supply are effective measures to maintain price stability. Furthermore, Bank Indonesia adopts the Inflation Targeting Framework (ITF) supported by a floating exchange rate system and Open Market Operations (OMO) to ensure macroeconomic stability. Stabilitas ekonomi merupakan aspek krusial yang dihadapi oleh setiap negara, dengan kebijakan moneter sebagai instrumen utama dalam menjaga keseimbangan dan mengendalikan inflasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh suku bunga Bank Indonesia (BI Rate), nilai tukar mata uang, dan jumlah uang beredar terhadap tingkat inflasi di Indonesia. Pendekatan penelitian yang digunakan bersifat kuantitatif dengan memanfaatkan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari publikasi resmi Bank Indonesia dan Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS). Data yang digunakan berupa data bulanan dari Januari 2021 hingga Desember 2024. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa nilai tukar mata uang dan jumlah uang beredar berpengaruh signifikan terhadap inflasi, sedangkan BI Rate tidak memiliki pengaruh yang signifikan. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa pengelolaan nilai tukar dan pengendalian jumlah uang beredar merupakan kebijakan efektif untuk menjaga stabilitas harga. Bank Indonesia menerapkan Kerangka Target Inflasi (Inflation Targeting Framework) dan Operasi Pasar Terbuka sebagai instrumen utama dalam memperkuat stabilitas makroekonomi.

Abstract

Cream deodorant is a topical preparation used to reduce body odor caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria in sweat glands. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a cream deodorant preparation containing a combination of green betel leaf and cinnamon bark at concentration of 10%, 20%, and 30%  on inhibiting the growth of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. Synthetic deodorants containing alumunium chloralhydrate have the potential to cause negative side effects, including cancer risk. Essential oils from green betel leaf and cinnamon bark contain antibacterial compounds such as betephenol and cinnamaldehyde, which work synergistically as active ingredients. This study used a purposive sampling technique and the well diffusion method on MHA medium. 10 replications were conducted, resulting in 30 samples. The results showed that the inhibition zone at a concentration of 10% is on average 13,4 mm (strong), at a concentration of 20%, it is on average 20.5 mm (very strong) and at a concentration of 30%, it is on average 23,5 mm (very strong). The results of a simple linear regression statistical test showed a significance value (p=0.000 → p < 0.05), indicating a significant effect of concentration on inhibitory power. This study concludes that the cream deodorant preparation containing the combination of green betel leaf and cinnamon bark distillate was effective in inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus, with the highest inhibition zone at a concentration of 30%. This combination has the potential to be developed as a safe, natural antibacterial deodorant ingredient.

Abstract

Skin infections caused by pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus remain a common health problem, and the need for safer alternative topical antibacterial agents continues to increase. This study aimed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of ethanol extract ointment of Tithonia diversifolia leaves with various concentrations formulated as a semi-solid topical preparation. A quasi-experimental design was used, and ointments were prepared at concentrations of 5%, 7%, 9%, 11%, 13%, 15%, 17%, 19%, and 21%. Antibacterial activity was tested using the well-diffusion method against Staphylococcus aureus. A total of 27 samples were tested with three replications. The results showed that the ointment produced inhibition zones ranging from 13.83 mm to 22.00 mm, with higher concentrations yielding greater inhibition. Repeated Measures ANOVA showed a significant difference among concentrations (p = 0.003), indicating that the increase in extract concentration significantly affected the antibacterial effectiveness. This study concludes that ethanol extract ointment of Tithonia diversifolia leaves demonstrates strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus*, with effectiveness increasing proportionally with concentration.
