Abstract

Emulgel is an emulsion of both O/W and W/O which is made into a gel by mixing it with a gelling agent. One of the gelling agents that is often used is HPMC because it can produce a clear gel, easily soluble in water, and has low toxicity. Nyamplung oil has wound healing activity by stimulating cell proliferation and the production of collagen and GAG (glycosaminoglycans). The purpose of this study was to find out that nyamplung (Calophyllum inophyllum L) oil can be made into a good emulgel preparation, has the effect of healing cuts, to determine the effect of variations in HPMC concentration on the physical quality and stability of the emulgel, and in accelerating the healing of cuts. This study used three formulas containing 1%, 2%, and 3% HPMC plus one control formula. Emulgel is made by mixing emulsion with gel and contains 1% nyamplung oil, then physical quality tests are carried out : organoleptic, homogeneity, pH, adhesion, dispersibility, viscosity test, emulgel type test, stability test. The wound healing activity test was carried out on the back of New Zealand rabbits. The percentage of treatment results were statistically analyzed. The results showed that all nyamplung oil emulgel formulas could be made ini emulgel preparations, had good physical quality and stability and had the effect of wound healing. The effect of gelling agent concentration affects the speed of wound healing. The result of the most optimal wound healing activity test is the formula 2.

Abstract

Sunlight is the main source of UV rays, exposure to UV rays can have a negative impact on human skin. These negative impacts can be prevented by using sunscreen. The effectiveness of sunscreen can be increased by combining UV filters and natural ingredients. This study aims to determine variations in the concentration of tamanu oil (Calophyllum inophyllum L.) in an emulgel preparation of a combination of tamanu oil and TiO2 which can provide protection as a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) with good physical quality and stability.Tamanu oil is made in 3 concentration variations of 10%; 15%; and 20% and combined with 7% titanium dioxide. Emulgel preparations as a whole were tested for physical quality and stability tests were carried out using the cycling test method. Testing of sunscreen activity in preparations was carried out in vitro using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength of 290-320 nm. The research results were processed statistically.The results of the sunscreen activity test for the emulgel preparation, a combination of tamanu oil and TiO2, showed that all formulas had activity as a sunscreen. The highest SPF value of the emulgel combination of tamanu oil and TiO2 was in formula 6 (20% oil and TiO2) of 9.6 and after the stability test the SPF formula 6 (20% oil and TiO2) was 9.0.
