Abstract

Andaliman (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC) is a plant known for its diverse bioactive compounds, including antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Nano-gel formulations were prepared using appropriate techniques, and their physicochemical properties, including particle size, pH, viscosity, and centrifugation stability, were evaluated. Additionally, organoleptic tests were conducted to assess the sensory characteristics of the nano-gels. Furthermore, an irritation test was performed to ensure the formulation's safety when applied to the skin. The percentage of wound closure was evaluated at various time points, including days 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14, comparing it to a commercially available wound healing product, Bioplacenton. Initial findings showed that the nano gel formulations exhibited favorable physicochemical properties, including appropriate particle size within the nano-scale range. The pH values were within an acceptable range, and the formulations demonstrated suitable viscosity and stability during centrifugation. Organoleptic tests indicated good sensory characteristics, and the irritation test showed the formulation's safety without significant skin irritation. The percentage of wound closure increased over time for all three concentrations (F1: 5%, F2: 10%, F3: 20%). In conclusion, nano gel formulations containing various concentrations of Andaliman extract exhibited good physicochemical properties, favorable sensory characteristics, and safe application on the skin. Moreover, they demonstrated promising wound healing effects, potentially comparable to commercial wound healing agents.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a disease problem in Indonesia due to the inability of the pancreas to produce insulin so the body's metabolic processes are disrupted. Platelet Rich Plasma is widely known to be a treatment in various fields of medicine because it contains many growth factors (GFs) which are useful for triggering growth, tissue, and cell regeneration. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of PRP at doses of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 ml/kg BW for improving lipid profiles. This study used an experimental method where PRP was made twice centrifugation, then divided into each treatment, each group was given twice a week for three weeks. The Shapiro-Wilk test was used for normally distributed data followed by the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by the analysis Mann-Whitney with a significant value of P <0.05, that is, there was an effect of PRP administration on improving levels of lipid profiles. The PRP dose of 0.5 ml/kg BW gave the effect of increasing the lipid profile except for HDL levels and a higher PRP dose was required to significantly increase HDL levels compared to the control group. Â
