Abstract

Acne can be caused by the bacteria Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus. One way to treat acne is to use antibiotics. However, this can create resistance. In this study, citronella oil will be formulated into an anti-acne gel preparation with various concentrations of 10%, 15% and 20%. The study began with distillation of citronella oil and analysis and identification of compounds. Then the gel was made by mixing citronella oil in the HPMC gel base and then the gel preparation was tested for antibacterial activity by the disc diffusion method and physical preparation tests included organoleptic tests, pH measurements, viscosity tests, homogeneity tests, dispersion tests, gel stability tests. Based on the results of compound analysis using GC-MS, citronella oil contains geraniol (55.05%). Of the three formulations, the preparation that has good gel physical properties based on its physical properties is F2 with 15% citronella oil content. In the antibacterial test, the results showed that citronella oil gel had the ability to inhibit Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus with the most optimal formulation being F2 with an average inhibition of 1.5 cm.

Abstract

Organic waste as a by-product of household activities that are produced continuously is still a major problem in Indonesia. Conventional organic waste management still has weaknesses and limitations. Black soldier fly larvae are decomposers that can be used in organic waste management. This study aims to measure the nutrient levels of organic waste used, such as leftover rice, tilapia bones, or a combination of both and study the use of organic waste for the growth of BSF larvae. The research used 150 BSF larvae aged 12 days with three repeats and four test treatments: T51 feed (control), leftover rice, tilapia bones, and a combination of leftover rice and tilapia bones (50:50). The highest levels of carbohydrates and fats were detected in the remaining rice and tilapia bones, respectively. The type of feed has an impact on the nutrients and growth of BSF larvae. The combination treatment produces larvae with the largest biomass and shortest growth time, on the other hand, a single treatment extends the growth time of larvae with a relatively small biomass. The combination treatment between leftover rice and tilapia bones (50:50) is the best type of feed in supporting the growth of BSF larvae, while single feed treatment is considered inappropriate for the growth of BSF larvae.
