Abstract

Background: Inflammation is the body's natural response to tissue injury caused by internal or external stimuli, with the aim of neutralizing the agent causing damage and repairing injured tissue. Initial treatment of inflammation is generally done by eliminating local triggering factors, such as pain relievers through the use of chemical drugs. However, this therapy often causes unwanted side effects. The use of natural ingredients that have anti-inflammatory activity is a safer alternative than modern drugs. Objective: to determine the anti-inflammatory effect of ethanol extract of turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa L.). Method: using a model of edema on the soles of the feet of male white mice induced by 1% carrageenan. A total of 24 mice were divided into 6 treatment groups, one group was not given treatment as a comparison, three groups received doses of ethanol extract of turmeric rhizome (100, 200, and 300 mg/kgBW), one negative control (Na CMC 0.5%), and one positive control (6.5 mg/kgBW Na diclofenac). Results: showed that after carrageenan induction, all test groups experienced a progressive decrease in inflammation levels from the 60th to the 360th minute. After the extract dose groups of 100 mg/kgBW, 200 mg/kgBW, 300 mg/kgBW, and Na diclofenac, the Na CMC group had the highest percentage of inflammation at the 120th minute. The Na diclofenac group showed the highest percentage of inflammation inhibition, followed by extract doses of 300, 200, and 100 mg/kgBW. In contrast to the Na CMC group which did not show anti-inflammatory activity, these data indicate that the ethanol extract of turmeric rhizome at a dose of 300 mg/kgBW has the highest anti-inflammatory efficacy after Na diclofenac, followed by doses of 200 mg/kgBW and 100 mg/kgBW. Conclusion: turmeric rhizome extract has the potential to reduce inflammation in the soles of mice's feet.

Abstract

Background: Dental caries was a tooth decay characterized by the progressive destruction of enamel and dentin caused by the metabolic activity of Streptococcus mutans. The prevention of dental caries could be achieved by using mouthwash. However, many commercial mouthwashes contained alcohol, which might cause side effects with long-term use. Therefore, a natural-based mouthwash formulation using basil leaves (Ocimum sanctum L.) and mint leaves (Mentha piperita L.) was needed, as both contained secondary metabolites with potential antibacterial activity. Objective: This study aimed to determine whether the combination of basil leaf extract and mint leaf extract could be formulated as a mouthwash and to evaluate its antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans. Methods: This study used an experimental design. Basil and mint leaves were extracted by maceration using 70% ethanol. The extracts were formulated into mouthwash preparations with concentrations of 20%:0% (F1), 0%:20% (F2), and 20%:20% (F3). The formulations were evaluated through pH, stability, and clarity tests. Antibacterial activity was assessed using the disc diffusion method. Results: The results showed that the combination of basil and mint leaf extracts met the requirements for pH, stability, and clarity tests. The antibacterial activity test showed inhibition zone diameters of 14.9 mm (moderate), 15.8 mm (strong), and 16.35 mm (strong) for F1, F2, and F3, respectively. The positive control showed an inhibition zone of 25.2 mm (very strong), while the negative control showed no inhibition zone. Conclusion: The combination of basil and mint leaf extracts could be formulated as a mouthwash, met the required evaluation parameters, and exhibited antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans.
