Abstract

Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) and suppresses prostaglandin synthesis. Its clinical utility, however, is limited by poor aqueous solubility and low bioavailability. This study evaluates the anti-inflammatory activity of a multicomponent crystal (MC) of aceclofenac with saccharin using a carrageenan-induced granuloma pouch model in mice. Male mice were divided into three groups (n = 3 per group): control, aceclofenac, and aceclofenac-saccharin multicomponent crystal, administered intraperitoneally. Inflammatory response was assessed via exudate volume and TNF-α levels. Both aceclofenac and MC significantly reduced exudate volume and TNF-α compared to the control (p < 0.05), with the MC group showing the greatest reduction. Although not statistically different from aceclofenac in TNF-α suppression, the MC demonstrated superior performance overall. The enhanced efficacy may be attributed to improved solubility and drug delivery. These outcomes support co-crystallization as a promising approach to optimize NSAID therapy.

Abstract

Telah dilakukan pembuatan kokristal katekin-nikotinamida dan evaluasi kelarutannya dalam pelarut air. Kokristal dibuat dengan dua metode, yaitu rekristalisasi dengan penguapan pelarut etanol 96% menggunakan rotary evaporator (metode I) dan penguapan pelarut pada suhu ruang (metode II). Karakterisasi kokristal katekin-nikotinamida dilakukan dengan difraksi sinar-X, analisis termal DTA (Differential Thermal Analysis), FT IR (Fourier Transform Infra Red), dan SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), serta uji kelarutan dalam pelarut air menggunakan orbital shaker selama 24 jam. Penetapan kadar katekin dilakukan dengan metode KCKT (Kromatografi Cair Kinerja Tinggi) menggunakan fase gerak air-asetonitril-metanol-etil asetat-asam asetat glasial (89:6:1:3:1). Hasil difraktogram sinar-X pada kokristal metode I menunjukkan terbentuknya padatan amorf, sedangkan pada metode II menunjukkan terbentuknya fase kristalin baru (kokristal). Pada analisis termal menggunakan DTA terjadi perubahan titik lebur pada kokristal metode I maupun metode II yang berbeda dengan titik lebur katekin dan nikotinamida yang menunjukkan terbentuknya campuran eutektik. Pada analisis FT IR, baik kokristal metode I maupun metode II terjadi pergeseran bilangan gelombang dari spektrum katekin dan nikotinamida yang menunjukkan terbentuknya ikatan hidrogen antara gugus hidroksi fenol dari katekin dengan gugus amida dari nikotinamida. Dari hasil SEM, terlihat habit kristal dari kokristal metode I maupun metode II berbeda dibandingkan dengan habit kristal katekin maupun nikotinamida yang menunjukkan terbentuknya kokristal. Namun kelarutan kokristal katekin-nikotinamida metode I (132,17 mg/100 mL) maupun metode II (131,09 mg/100 mL) tidak berbeda nyata dengan kelarutan katekin (124,58 mg/100 mL). Kata kunci: kokristal, katekin, nikotinamida, kelarutan, KCKT.

Abstract

Piperine (C17H19NO3) belongs to the alkaloid group mainly found in the Piperaceae family, especially in black pepper (Piper nigrum L.). Piperine is practically insoluble in water. This study aims to improve the solubility of piperine by preparing it into a multicomponent crystal using caffeine as a coformer. The formation of piperine-caffeine multicomponent was prepared by solvent evaporation and solvent drop grinding. Each sample was characterized using Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and FT-IR spectroscopy. The solubility test was carried out by sonication for 30 minutes at room temperature (30 ⁰C), and the dissolved piperine was analyzed by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) using methanol: water (80:20) as the mobile phase. This study shows a decrease in peak diffraction intensity on PXRD analysis and a reduction in endothermic peak on the DSC thermogram of multicomponent crystals. In the FTIR analysis, multicomponent crystals slightly shift, indicating the physical interaction. The multicomponent crystal of piperine-caffeine prepared by solvent evaporation method has an increase in solubility of 2.56 times, and the multicomponent crystal with solvent drop grinding method has an increase in solubility of 1.61 times, respectively. In conclusion, the multicomponent crystal piperine–caffeine can enhance the solubility of piperine.

Abstract

The Kaempferia galanga L rizhome (kencur) extract, known in traditional use as an appetite enhancer, was developed into chewable gummy preparations as a nutraceutical product. Due to the taste and odor of extract from natural plants caused less preferable to consume. Therefore the formulation of chewable gummy was addressed to overcome this problem. This study formulated gummy with a concentration of 2% galangal extract and gelatin as gelling agent with concentration variations of 10% (F1), 12.5% (F2), and 15% (F3). The evaluation of the physical properties of galangal rhizome extract chewable gummy included swelling ratio, syneresis, organoleptic, weight diversity, and texture profile analysis (TPA). In addition, a hedonic test was conducted to determine the level of panelist preference. The results revealed that the higher the gelatin concentration, the more significant the changes in the physical properties of gummies. An increase in gelatin plays a crucial role in forming a denser and more stable preparation structure. This impacts the texture regarding chewiness and increase the hardness. The result of TPA showed a significant differences (p<0.05) in the parameters of hardness, gumminess, and chewiness between the three formulations. The results of the hedonic test showed that F3 was the most preferred by the panelists. Based on these results, a gelatin concentration of 15% is recommended for the formulation of chewable gummy galangal rhizome extract.
