Abstract

The lemongrass plant (Cymbopogon citratus) contains essential oil components consisting of 3 components, namely citronellal, citronellol, geraniol, and other components that are traditionally used as mosquito repellents. This study aims to utilize lemongrass stem essential oil in mosquito repellent preparations and find out at what concentration of lemongrass stem essential oil can be used as an anti-mosquito preparation. Essential oils are obtained using the steam distillation method. This research is experimental through laboratory testing. Three spray-repellent preparations were made with concentrations of 4%, 6%, and 8%. The tests carried out were organoleptic and preparation effectiveness tests against ten adult mosquitoes. The results of the study showed that spray repellents from lemongrass essential oil with concentrations of 4 and 6% were more effective in repelling and killing mosquitoes

Abstract

The use of plants as an alternative to traditional medicine has often been used by the people of Lamcot Village. However, until now there has been no clear identification of these types of plants scientifically. This study aims to determine the number and types of medicinal plants used by the people of Lamcot Village, their efficacy, and the plant organs used. This research was carried out from January to June 2024, located in a residential area of Lamcot Village, Darul Imarah District, Aceh Besar. This research uses survey and interview methods. The identification of medicinal plant types is carried out by matching the existing morphological characteristics with the images referring to the plant identification book. The results of the study showed that there were 25 collections of plants that were efficacious as traditional medicines used by the people of Lamcot Village. Plant organs used as medicine include roots, stems, leaves, flowers and rhizomes.

Abstract

Aloe vera is one of the plants that is very easy to find in Indonesia. This plant is rich in saponins, lignin, vitamins, and enzymes. Liquid soap is made through a saponification reaction of oil reacted with KOH. This study aims to make a liquid soap formulation from Aloe vera gel with three oil variations: sesame, corn, and soybean oil, and their evaluation test. Aloe vera gel is obtained by peeling the skin of Aloe vera leaves and then taking the gel. Furthermore, the aloe vera gel obtained is made in the form of a liquid soap preparation by hot means where the oil is directly reacted with an alkaline solution at a temperature of 50ºC until it gets a soap base. The evaluation of liquid soap includes an organoleptic test, pH, foam height and stability, and viscosity carried out for 28 days of storage time. The results showed that liquid soap preparations made from cream-colored aloe vera gel, in the form of a thick liquid and a distinctive smell from oil, had a pH of 9.4 – 9.7, and the height and stability of the foam at t0 minutes between 30 mm – 93 mm and t5 minutes between 25 mm – 500 mm, viscosity 1133.0 cP – 1133.7 cP. Based on the results of the evaluation test, it can be concluded that liquid soap preparations from Aloe vera gel with three oil variations can produce good liquid soap because it has met the requirements of the organoleptic test, pH, viscosity, and foam height and stability.
