Abstract

The pursuit of effective and natural skincare solutions has led to the exploration of plant-based ingredients. Red dragon fruit (Hylocereus polyrhizus) peel, rich in flavonoids and antioxidants, presents a promising avenue for developing moisturizing skincare products. This study aimed to evaluate the moisturizing efficacy and stability of an essence sheet mask formulated with red dragon fruit peel extract. Red dragon fruit peel extract was obtained using ethanol extraction. Essence sheet masks were formulated with varying concentrations of the extract (0%, 3%, 5%, and 7%). The physical properties (organoleptic characteristics, pH, viscosity, and homogeneity), stability (cycling test), skin irritation potential (patch test), and moisturizing efficacy (corneometer measurements) of the sheet masks were assessed. The hedonic attributes of the masks were also evaluated through a consumer perception study. The formulated essence sheet masks exhibited desirable physical properties and were stable under accelerated storage conditions. No skin irritation was observed in the patch test. The sheet masks containing red dragon fruit peel extract demonstrated a significant increase in skin hydration compared to the control group. The consumer perception study indicated high acceptance of the masks, particularly those with higher extract concentrations. The findings suggest that red dragon fruit peel extract can be effectively incorporated into essence sheet masks to enhance skin hydration. The developed sheet masks were well-tolerated and exhibited good stability, making them promising candidates for natural moisturizing skincare products.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease caused by a deficiency of insulin secretion, insulin resistance, and increased hepatic glucose production. Secang wood (Caesalpinia sappan L.) is known to have antihyperglycemic activity. However, these compounds are not yet known. In silico studies are needed to determine the compounds that act as antidiabetics. This study performed molecular docking of flavonoid compounds in sappan wood against the 1V4S glucokinase receptor. The results showed that all flavonoid compounds of sappan wood were predicted to have antidiabetic activity because they had a lower docking score than metformin, the first-line therapy of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Butein is expected to have the best activity. It has the lowest docking score (-94.4836). Visualization of the docking results shows that butein interacts with the identical amino acid residues as metformin, namely ARG 63 and THR 65, through the formation of hydrogen bonds and Van der Waals interactions. SWISS-ADME web tool predicted that butein has good oral absorption and excretion. The toxicity prediction tool showed a slight contradiction in the mutagenic effect. Based on this research, molecular docking may be able to design new drugs, especially from butein in sappan wood (Caesalpinia sappan L.), as antidiabetic candidates.

Abstract

Bad breath is caused by volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) produced by the anaerobic bacteria Streptococcus mutans through the decomposition of food waste. This problem can be overcome with antibacterial mouthwash. Cinnamon contains essential oils, phenols, flavonoids, saponins and terpenoids, which have antibacterial properties. This study aimed to formulate a mouthwash from ethanol extract of cinnamon and evaluate its physical properties, stability, and inhibitory power against Streptococcus mutans using the Kirby-Bauer method. This research was experimental by making mouthwash using cinnamon extract with concentrations of 10% (FI), 12.5% ​​(FII), and 15% (FIII). The results of the research showed that the mouthwash preparations were brick red in color with different intensities, all preparations were homogeneous, had a pH according to standards except for FII and all preparations did not meet the required viscosity values. The stability test showed that the preparation was stable in storage except for the viscosity parameter FIII. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that the inhibitory power of FI, FII, FIII against Streptococcus mutans bacteria was 7.33 mm, 8.50 mm, 9.33 mm respectively. The inhibitory power of FII and FIII was better than the positive control, namely total care-antibacterial mouthwash (8.33 mm).

Abstract

Kombucha is produced through the fermentation of a tea and sugar mixture with a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY). It contains various compounds beneficial to health, including vitamin C. The pH level and vitamin C content of kombucha are affected by fermentation temperature and time. Correspondingly, this study aimed to determine the effects of temperature and fermentation duration on the pH level and vitamin C content of butterfly pea kombucha. The research was conducted employing laboratory experimental methods, including a UV-Vis spectrophotometer to measure vitamin C content and a digital pH meter to measure pH levels. The limit of detection (LoD) and the limit of quantification (LoQ) values for the UV-Vis spectrophotometer were 0.115 ppm and 3.77 ppm, respectively. The results indicated that fermentation temperature did not affect the pH or vitamin C content. However, the pH level was affected by fermentation time, while vitamin C content was not statistically affected. The highest pH value (5.11) was observed on day 0 of fermentation, and the highest vitamin C content (2.94%) was recorded on day 6 at a temperature of 30°C.

Abstract

Jamu, a traditional Indonesian herbal medicine, is widely used in traditional healing practices nationwide, including the Banyumas Regency. The Indonesian government has implemented restrictions that forbid the inclusion of medicinal compounds in jamu, as their unregulated usage poses possible health hazards. Cyproheptadine hydrochloride is a frequently encountered medicinal component in appetite-stimulating herbs. However, the extent of adulteration of cyproheptadine hydrochloride in appetite-stimulating herbs marketed in Banyumas Regency is undisclosed. This study purposed to analyze and quantify the presence of cyproheptadine hydrochloride in appetite-stimulating herbs that are available for sale in the Banyumas Regency. The aim was to inform customers about these herbs' possible pharmaceutical ingredient content. The study utilized a qualitative analysis of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and a quantitative analysis with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Fourteen samples of appetite-stimulating herbs in powdered, capsule, and tablet forms were gathered from different areas within the Banyumas Regency. Qualitative analysis revealed cyproheptadine hydrochloride in two herbal samples, SNM TG and SNM AM. The quantitative examination revealed that the content of cyproheptadine hydrochloride in SNM TG was 10.92 mg/5g, whereas in SNM AM, it was 7.93 mg/5g. These findings indicate that there have been breaches of regulations, and individuals who ingest these herbs may be susceptible to health problems. Further investigation is required to analyze a broader range of appetite-stimulating herbal samples, particularly those in liquid form, to ascertain the level of contamination with cyproheptadine hydrochloride and provide essential data for health regulations.

Abstract

Fish is one type of aquatic product widely used by the community because of its advantages as a food ingredient, including a source of important nutrients such as protein, vitamins, fat, and minerals. Fish is often found in cans. Canned packaging contains the heavy metals lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and zinc (Zn), which can be released into food due to the long storage period. This study aims to identify and analyze heavy metals Pb, Cd, and Zn levels in canned tuna with an expiration date of less than 1 year. Samples of canned tuna came from five different brands. Qualitative analysis used color reagents, while quantitative research used an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). The qualitative study results showed that three samples of tuna contained heavy metals. Samples B and C were positive for Pb metal, while samples A and B were positive for Zn metal. The concentration of Pb metal was measured in sample B at 117.9 mg/Kg and in sample C at -0.0147 mg/Kg. The concentration of Zn metal in sample A was -0.0048 mg/Kg, and in sample B, it was -0.147 mg/Kg.
