Abstract

TBC cases in Indonesia continue to increase. One way to prevent transmission of TBC is to wash your hands with soap or hand sanitizer. Hand sanitizers on the market contain many antiseptics in the form of synthetic chemicals which can cause skin health problems, besides being relatively expensive. For this reason, it is necessary to develop hand sanitizers made from natural ingredients that are safe, cheap and easy to make with simple equipment and have economic value. Some natural ingredients that can be used in making natural hand sanitizers include betel leaf, lime, orange peel, aloe vera and several studies have also mentioned natural ingredients such as basil leaves, kecombrang flowers, banana fronds, aloes. These natural ingredients contain several active ingredients such as saponins, tannins, flavonoids, citric acid, polyphenols, alkaloids which function as an antiseptic capable of killing pathogenic organisms. The aim of the activity is to provide knowledge to the public about hand sanitizers and how to make hand sanitizers with natural ingredients. as well as the application of making natural hand sanitizers independently. The method used is counseling/ lectures/ material explanations accompanied by discussions and demonstrations of making hand sanitizers. The result of this community service is an increase in the participants' knowledge from 80-90% correct answers to 100% and 100% of the participants practice making natural hand sanitizers, the participants are also committed to implement and apply the manufacture of natural hand sanitizers in their respective homes using various materials from plants that are easy to get around the neighborhood such as betel, aloe vera and lime.

Abstract

Plants have long been used by Indonesian communities for medicinal purposes, including herbal soaps. The number of herbal soap producers has increased, offering various types made from natural ingredients such as lemongrass, clove, and cinnamon. However, the concentration of essential oils in herbal soaps can vary significantly across brands. This study aimed to formulate an herbal soap as an antibacterial agent by determining the minimum concentration of essential oils (clove, cinnamon, and lemongrass) needed to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The research employed a Post-test Only Control Group Design and was conducted at the Microbiology Laboratory of Health Analysts in Yogyakarta from January to October 2020. The study tested essential oils at concentrations of 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%. The inhibition zones were measured to evaluate effectiveness. Results showed that the inhibition zones for lemongrass oil at concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2% against Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 6.85, 7.61, 7.89, and 8.92 mm, respectively. Cinnamon oil exhibited larger inhibition zones against both Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Clove oil had less antibacterial effectiveness compared to cinnamon. Cinnamon oil at 2.00% concentration was very effective against Staphylococcus epidermidis, while 1.50% concentration was adequate for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
