Abstract

Fresh cow’s milk has weaknesses, namely it is easily perishable and its shelf life tends to be short. Processing fresh cow’s milk into product is one of the efforts to extend the shelf life of cow’s milk. One of the products that can be made from fresh milk is soap. The ingredients used in making soap are quite simple and widely available in the market at relatively cheap prices. Rosemary can be used as an additive in manufacture of cow’s milk soap. The target of making envirometally friendly soap is directed at people who have dairy cows. The goal to be achieved is to increase the value of cow’s comodity and increase entrepreurship by producing and marketing enviromentally friendly soap and being able to solve the problem of relatively short milk shelf life. This service is divided into several stages. At this stage, a training process was carried out on making soap from fresh cow’s milk waste and marketing methods for the product. It is hoped that milk that can be consumed again can be processed into soap using active ingredients from rosemary, so that the soap produced can increase added value both economically and for the environment. The results of this community service is solid soap using raw materials from milk waste and rosmeray. This community service activity was received with great enthusiasm by the participants who took part in the training on how to make cow's milk soap. There is a significant difference (p<0.05) in the results of the pretest and posttest questionnaires, indicating an increase in understanding of the material presented in this community service activity. This activity has been successfully implemented.

Abstract

Buah okra banyak dikonsumsi sebagai sayur dan diperkirakan dapat dimanfaatkan dalam produk kosmetik. Karena adanya komponen golongan fenolik, yaitu senyawa antioksidan dan senyawa pelindung, buah okra diyakini dapat mengurangi peningkatan radikal bebas yang dihasilkan oleh paparan sinar matahari. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memfraksinasi buah okra, mengkaji kandungan total fenolik dan flavonoidnya, serta menguji aktivitas antioksidan dan perlindungan sinar matahari dari fraksi buah okra. Dalam penelitian ini, ekstraksi etanol dilanjutkan dengan remaserasi dan fraksinasi dengan n-heksana, etil asetat, dan air. Pengujian potensi sebagai tabir surya ditentukan berdasarkan metode perhitungan nilai SPF, nilai persen transmitan eritema dan nilai persen transmitan pigmentasi. Hasil analisis menunjukkan fraksi etil asetat memiliki kandungan fenolik dan flavonoid terbesar yaitu 251, 0116 mgGAE/g dan 127,6178 mgQE/g. Nilai IC50 juga menunjukkan konsentrasi paling kecil yaitu 40,2254 ppm. Fraksi etil asetat pada konsentrasi 100ppm memberikan nilai SPF 8,5973; 200ppm 49,7069 dan 400ppm sebesar 77,4765 yang menunjukkan fraksi etil asetat mampu memberikan perlindungan ultra. Persen transmisi pigmentasi (Tp) 100ppm adalah 0,3441; 200ppm sebesar 0,1447 dan 400ppm sebesar 0,1113 serta persen transmisi eritema (Te) 100ppm sebesar 0,3407; 200ppm sebesar 0,1436 dan 400ppm sebesar 0,1102 menunjukkan kemampuan fraksi etil asetat sebagai sunblock.Kata kunci: Buah Okra, antioksidan, tabir surya, fraksi

Abstract

Demam Berdarah Dengue (DBD) adalah penyakit menular yang disebabkan oleh virus Dengue yang disebarkan oleh vektor nyamuk Aedes aegypti dan Aedes albopictus. Pencegahan penyakit tersebut dapat dengan menghindari gigitan nyamuk pembawa virus. Diketahui beberapa bahan alamiah seperti lemon dan sereh, mempunyai khasiat sebagai pengusir nyamuk. Zat tersebut akan lebih efektif apabila dibuat sebagai lilin aromaterapi. Tujuan pengabdian ini untuk peningkatan pengetahuan tentang demam berdarah dan skill pembuatan lilin aroamterapi kepada ibu-ibu PKK Anjasmoro Tengah, Karangayu, Semarang tentang produksi lilin aromaterapi yang dapat digunakan sebagai antinyamuk. Pelaksanaan pengabdian dilakukan dengan metode ceramah yang sebelumnya diawali dengan pre-test, diskusi interaktif, demonstrasi dan praktik langsung untuk meningkatkan kapasitas dan kreativitas masyarakat, bagian akhir dari kegiatan dilakukan post-test. Kegiatan pre-test dan post-test dilakukan untuk mengetahui tingkat pemahaman peserta. Hasil menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan tentang demam berdarah dan pembuatan lilin aromaterapi dari peserta berdasarkan hasil pre-hanya memiliki pengetahuan sekitar 20% dapat meningkat sampai lebih dari 75% berarti kegiatan yang dilakukan mendapat tanggapan positif.

Abstract

The presence of natural antioxidants in medicinal plants plays a crucial role in inhibiting the detrimental effects of oxidative stress. The aim of this research is to explore more deeply all parts of A. esculenta L from flowers, fruits, seeds, leaves, and stems for the levels of compounds and antioxidant and enzyme inhibitor activities. The flowers demonstrated the highest TPC with 173.15942 ± 6.5083 mg GAE/g. The stems exhibited the lowest TPC value at 69.1967 ± 2.8408 mg GAE/g. The flowers also showed TFC value of 83.157 ± 2.021 mg QE/g while the stems displayed the lowest with 36.7240 ± 1.337 mg QE/g. IC50 value that the flowers possessed the highest antioxidant activity with 22.6539 ± 1.6452 mg/mL, whereas the stems displayed a slightly lower. In terms of the inhibitor of a-amylase activity, the flowers had an IC50 value of 102.4885 ± 11.4370 mg/mL whereas the stems had a lower. The highest IC50 value of the a-glucosidase inhibitor was 76.95 ± 12.0888 mg/mL in the flowers, and the lowest was in the stems. The highest IC50 of pancreatic lipase inhibitor was 109.5943 ± 9.7391 mg/mL in the flowers, and the lowest was in the stems. This study show that there is a relationship between the high content of total phenolic and total flavonoids on antioxidants, antidiabetic and antilipase activities.

Abstract

Obesity, which is currently a global issue that contributes to a number of diseases, including diabetes and coronary heart disease. This study set out to isolate and identify the flavonoid compounds from okra fruit that demonstrate the ability to inhibit alpha glucosidase and pancreatic lipase. Okra fruit powder was extracted using ethanol at a concentration of 80% following fractination with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and aquadest. TLC preparation was used to isolate flavonoid from fraction ethyl acetate. Flavonoids that were succesfully isolated were quercetin compounds. The IC50 value of quercetin was found to be 47.9763 micrograms/mL. This was greater than IC50 acarbose as a positive control at a concentration of 33.8169 micrograms/mL, which showed its ability as an inhibitor -glucosidase was smaller. Quercetin acted as pancreatic lipase inhibitors, albeit weaker than the positive control Orlistat, which at the same concentration could inhibit 68% of pancreatic lipase activity, while quercetin could only inhibit 50%. Using molecular docking in silico testing, quercetin compounds were shown to have a stronger bond than the positive control. Similar to positive control, quercetin compounds could interact with receptors with amino acids residues GLU 277 (glutamic acid) and ASP 352 (aspartic acid), amino acids crucial in determining enzyme activity. Conversely, in the silico tests for  pancreatic lipase inhibition, Orlistat  displayed an exceedingly strong bond than quercetin compounds. Despite this, quercetin compounds also showed interaction between resceptors with amino acids residues MET 123 (Methionine) and ALA 51 (Alanine), amino acids that determine enzyme activity (catalytic site of enzyme)
