Abstract

Hand hygiene is an important factor that needs to be observed in controlling the spread of diseases transmitted through hand-to-hand contact. Synthesis of silver nanoparticles from tembelekan (Lantana camara) and paku laut (Acrostichum aureum) using the green synthesis method has good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria. Therefore, a preparation formulation was made, namely hand sanitizer, which is still rarely used. Formulations that have successfully entered the evaluation stage include organoleptic tests, homogeneity tests, spreadability tests, adhesion tests, viscosity tests, pH tests, accelerated stability tests, and irritation tests. Antibacterial activity was evaluated against bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The hand sanitizer is formulated to contain 5% tembelekan AgNPs (F1); paku laut AgNPs 5% (F2); and a combination of 2.5% paku laut AgNPs and 2.5% tembelekan AgNPs. The resulting hand sanitizer has good organoleptic characteristics, except for the color of the preparation, which changed during the accelerated stability test. Test results for pH, adhesion, spreadability, viscosity, and homogeneity of hand sanitizer meet the requirements of a good test. Irritation tests on ten volunteers showed no irritation reaction. Antibacterial tests show that hand sanitizer has bacterial antibacterial activity with an average ± standard deviation of the inhibition zone Staphylococcus aureus is 6.605±0.459(F1); 6.665±0.615(F2); 6.380±0.282(F3) dan Escherichia coli namely 6.575 ± 0.219 (F1); 6.860 ± 0.155 (F2); 6.810 ± 0.056 (F3). Making hand sanitizer AgNPs-based ingredients from plants can be used as hand sanitizer, but stabilizers are required to prevent color changes during storage.

Abstract

Night creams play a pivotal role in skincare routines by safeguarding against nocturnal moisture loss and promoting a smooth, wrinkle-free complexion. However, conventional formulations of night creams often incorporate synthetic active substances, potentially leading to adverse effects over prolonged use. Addressing this concern involves substituting these synthetic compounds with natural ingredients, particularly essential oils, renowned for their diverse skincare benefits encompassing anti-acne, anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, and moisturizing properties. A systematic review was conducted to establish a foundation for future investigations, focusing on the integration of essential oils in night cream formulations. The outcomes revealed that various night cream formulations, enriched with essential oils derived from natural ingredients such as rosemary oil, camellia oil, clove oil, geranium oil, lemongrass oil, rosehip oil, and sandalwood oil, demonstrate remarkable efficacy in preserving skin moisture. The versatility of essential oils has been showcased in the development of night creams, boasting diverse beneficial effects across skincare concerns. This systematic investigation highlights the potential of essential oil-based night creams, which have recently gained traction in the global market. The burgeoning introduction of these products signifies an escalating demand for such skincare solutions and points towards promising prospects for future advancements in essential oil-based night creams.Keywords: essential oils, formulation, natural product chemistry, night cream, patchouli oil, skincare

Abstract

Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) is one of the most popular coffees among Acehnese, an ethnic group from Aceh, Indonesia. The amount of coffee consumed is directly proportional to the amount of coffee waste produced. Spent coffee grounds are the residue obtained during the brewing process. Spent coffee grounds can be utilized by converting them into active charcoal adsorbents. This study aimed to produce activated charcoal from spent arabica coffee grounds (SACG), to utilize it as an active ingredient in the liquid bath soap formulations, and to determine the best formula. The characterization of activated charcoal was conducted and compared to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). The liquid bath soap contains activated charcoal from SACG was divided into five formulas with various concentrations of cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) and sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) surfactants. Furthermore, the evaluation of liquid bath soap formula was performed. The characterization results showed that activated charcoal produced from SACG met the SNI requirements with a yield of 86.3%, volatile substance content of 10.67%, water content of 5.67%, ash content of 1.7%, pure carbon content of 81.96%, and iodium absorption of 1522.8 mg/g. The evaluation results revealed that liquid bath soap formula with activated charcoal from SACG containing a combination of 5% CAPB and 5% SLS (F5) was the best formula that met the requirements. SACG can be used as an excellent raw material for activated charcoal in liquid bath soap formulations.

Abstract

The purpose of this activity was to train community members in Kajhu Village, Aceh Besar District to produce wheat bread with the addition of pumpkin. These community service activities were carried out in several stages which were socialization of the importance of a healthy lifestyle through focus group discussions by 3 experts in health field (clinical pharmacology, internal medicine, and clinical nutrition) and discussions about production, packaging, and product marketing. The result showed that 60 packs of bread with approximately 80 calories were produced every production time. Marketing and transaction (ordering) of products utilized online media. The sales value for 60 breads per day was Rp.420,000, with a profit of Rp. 180,000. This result was a good thing for Kajhu Village community group members because it could increase household income.In conclusion, the implementation of this product-based community service program has resulted in bread products with nutritious ingredients of wheat and pumpkin which have been clinically and experimentally (in other researches) proven to have anti-diabetic properties.
