Abstract

This study investigates the implementation of a contextual Project-Based Learning model (Ethnomed-PjBL) that connects pharmacy students with traditional healers (Belian) in Lombok, Indonesia, to explore and scientifically validate ethnomedicinal formulations. Conducted in three phases field immersion, in-situ qualitative testing, and laboratory-based phytochemical analysis the model facilitated reciprocal learning and empirical inquiry grounded in Indigenous healing knowledge. Laboratory screening confirmed the presence of key secondary metabolites across all formulations, including flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, phenolics, and terpenoids. Among the seven formulations tested, those based on Ziziphus mauritiana (bidara) and Annona muricata (soursop) showed the highest chemical diversity and antioxidant activity, with IC₅₀ values of 61.2 µg/mL and 74.5 µg/mL, respectively. These results support the pharmacological potential of traditional remedies and align with healer-reported uses related to immune function and disease prevention. Students reported significant educational gains, including improved understanding of phytochemistry, enhanced laboratory competence, critical thinking, and greater intercultural and ethical awareness. The Ethnomed-PjBL model demonstrated the capacity to embed scientific inquiry within culturally responsive frameworks, reinforcing the relevance of Indigenous knowledge in contemporary pharmaceutical education. By promoting equitable academic–community partnerships, this model contributes to broader efforts to decolonize health education and advance pharmaceutical sovereignty. It offers a replicable framework for integrating traditional knowledge into vocational health curricula, balancing scientific rigor with cultural respect. The study underscores the importance of ethical collaboration in preserving traditional knowledge systems while cultivating future health professionals who are both scientifically competent and culturally attuned.

Abstract

Scientific creativity is an important competency in Higher Education, especially in the fields of science and technology. This research aims to analyze the level of scientific creativity of D-III Pharmacy students in practicum-based Pharmacognosy courses. In Torrance's indicators, there are four indicators used to measure the level of scientific creativity of students, namely fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The research method used is quantitative descriptive method with data collection through observation, and questionnaire forms. The research subjects were 3rd semester (odd) pharmacy D-III study program students with a total of 30 students. The results showed that the level of scientific creativity of students tended to be in the less category. As for the level of student creativity in each Torrance indicator, namely fluency is in the medium category (51%), originality is in the less category (23%), flexibility is in the less category (25%), and elaboration is in the less category (26%).

Abstract

Chloroform and aceton are commonly used in washing test, while both are unfriendly to human health. This research is aimed to evaluate if those chemicals are really needed foe such purpose by seeing the washing power with or without those chemicals. There are four conditions of washing test: Involving both as usual (CA); chloroform only (C); chloroform and ethanol instead (CE); and None of both (OO). Washing test was carryout within a 0% and 1% of detergent. Two Way ANOVA Statistical analysis revealed that there was a very significant differences among the treatments, and Duncan analysis showed that with or without chloroform and aceton resulting in the same category of washing power, except the CE treatment resulted in a lower washing power. Hence there is a choice weather chloroform and aceton be involved in the procedure.
