Abstract

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition marked by difficulty maintaining a penile erection, often linked to reduced nitric oxide (NO) production. This study investigates the aphrodisiac properties of ethanolic white ginger extract (Z. officinale Rosc. var. officinarum) in male Wistar rats. Sixteen male and sixteen female rats were divided into four groups: two groups received 25% and 50% ginger extract, one served as a negative control, and the other as a positive control using sildenafil. Ginger rhizomes were dried, powdered, and extracted with ethanol. Phytochemical analysis revealed alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, and terpenoids. Behavioral parameters, including introduction (approach to females), climbing, and coitus, were observed to evaluate sexual activity. The group treated with 50% ginger extract showed the highest frequency of introduction and climbing, while the sildenafil group exhibited the highest coitus frequency. Statistical analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis test indicated significant differences in sexual behavior across the groups. The study suggests that white ginger extract, especially at higher concentrations, may have aphrodisiac effects by enhancing sexual behavior in male rats. This could be due to its bioactive compounds affecting hormone levels or the nervous system. The findings propose white ginger as a potential natural treatment for ED, with further research required to explore its implications in humans.

Abstract

Kulit dapat mengalami penuaan atau aging yang didefinisikan sebagai hilangnya keseimbangan homeostatik suatu organisme secara progresif. Indikator aging diantaranya keberadaan hyperpigmentasi yang disebabkan oleh enzim tyrosinase. Banyak Cara yang dapat dilakukan untuk  mencegah aging adalah dengan melakukan perawatan kulit menggunakan serum antiaging. Senyawa bioaktif dari tanaman berkembang dan populer untuk digunakan sebagai bahan kosmetik dalam formulasi karena banyak dilaporkan mengandung vitamin, antioksidan, minyak essensial, protein, senyawa fenolik, dan zat aktif lainnya. Buah Ceremai (Phyllantus acidus) diidentifikasi mengandung senyawa asam glikolat dan asam sitrat, sedangkan kulit buah semangka (Citrullus lanatus) mengandung saponin, tanin, alkaloid dan flavonoid. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membuat formulasi serum  antiaging  dari kombinasi buah ceremai (Phyllantus acidus) dan ekstrak kulit buah semangka (Citrullus lanatus) sebagai inhibisi enzim tirosinase. Penelitian ini  meliputi pengujian aktivitas ekstrak dan sediaan serum terhadap inhibisi enzim tirosinase dengan metode in vitro menggunakan ELISA. Hasil penelitian aktivitas inhibisi enzim tirosinase ekstrak buah ceremai menunjukan nilai IC50 sebesar 9.551 µg/mL dan ekstrak kulit buah semangka 3.304 µg/mL. Inhibisi enzim tirosinase serum F1 mendapatkan nilai IC50  1.137 µg/mL sedangkan F2 sebesar 1.025 µg/mL.  Hasil yang dapat disimpulkan bahwa ekstrak kulit buah semangka lebih aktif sebagai inhibisi enzim tirosinase daripada ekstrak buah ceremai tetapi hasil sediaan serum menunjukan hasil yang memiliki potensi sebagai inhibisi enzim tyrosinase.

Abstract

A health sector that uses information and communication technology (ICT) can offer a new perspective on health service delivery and help overcome the problem of insufficient availability of health workers. The form of implementation can be telepharmacy services, but only a few people understand telepharmacy. This service aims to provide telepharmacy education to the people of Pandeglang Regency as a first step to strengthening the National Health System. Health education is delivered through visualization using the community relations method. As part of the Community Service program, this activity aims to provide telepharmacy education to the people of Pandeglang Regency, which is part of improving the National Health System.
