Abstract

Ambonese banana (Musa paradisiaca var. Sapientum (L.)) has a tuber with several benefits including for wound-healing. The Ambonese banana tuber contains protein, fat, vitamins A and C. In addition, the tannins, flavonoids, and saponins contained in the sap of the Ambonese banana tuber are beneficial in wound healing. The purpose of this study was to obtain the best gel formula containing extract of Ambonese banana tuber based on physical evaluation. The study was conducted by making three different gel formulations (F1, F2, F3) containing 5% Ambonese banana tuber extract. Physical assessment of the gel preparation included organoleptic tests, pH determination, homogeneity, viscosity, and spreadability evaluation. The results showed that the preparation was in the form of a homogeneous gel with a reddish-brown color and a distinctive odor. The pH of the preparation was around 5-8 with a viscosity between 500-3500 cps and a spreadability of 5-8 cm. F2 is the best gel formula based on physical evaluation during four weeks of storage with a composition of 5% HPMC, 15% propylene glycol, 0.2% methylparaben, 5% Ambonese banana tuber extract, and 100% aquadest.

Abstract

Nowadays, many people are paying attention to the benefits of natural soap because it is believed to be gentler on the skin and environmentally friendly. This research aims to determine the formulation of natural liquid soap with the addition of dragon fruit peel extract that is effective and meets the requirements. The method used is an experimental method by formulating a natural liquid soap containing 0.5% dragon fruit peel extract as the active ingredient and adding cocamid-DEA as a foam stabilizer in variations of 1%, 3%, and 5%. The tests conducted include organoleptic tests, pH tests, foam height tests, viscosity tests, and skin condition tests. Research shows that the natural liquid soap produced has characteristics of a reddish-purple color, a distinctive scent, and varying consistency depending on the concentration of cocamid-DEA added, where F3 has the highest viscosity at 528.9 mPa, F2 at 525.7 mPa, and F1 at 428.9 mPa. From the pH testing results, F1 has a pH of 8, while F2 and F3 have a pH of 9. In the foam height test, all formulas met the soap foam height requirement of 1.3-22 cm. The first formulation of natural liquid soap with the addition of dragon fruit peel extract as an active ingredient, based on organoleptic tests, pH tests, viscosity, and foam height tests, produced the best results and met the requirements.
