Abstract

Antibacterials are substances that can interfere with the growth or even kill bacteria and have the side effect of antibacterial resistance. One effort to reduce resistance is choosing to use natural bacterial ingredients. One plant that can potentially contain antibacterial activity is malacca leaves (Phyllanthus emblica). The contents of this plant include flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, saponins, and steroids/triterpenoids. This research aimed to prove the antibacterial activity test of malacca leaf extract. The stages in this research included phytochemical screening and testing the antibacterial activity of ethanol extract from Malacca leaves for Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis bacteria using the diffusion method using paper discs. The characteristics of malacca leaf simplicia obtained were water content of 4.6%, water-soluble content of 28%, ethanol-soluble essence content of 23.33%, total ash content of 2.00%, and insoluble ash content of 0.5%. The results of phytochemical screening showed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, tannins, glycosides, and steroids/triterpenoids. The antibacterial test results of malacca leaf extract at concentrations of 500 mg/ml, 400 mg/ml, 300 mg/ml, and 200 mg/ml have an antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis, and there is no difference in the effectiveness of the inhibitor against gram-positive and negative grams.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop a formulation of mango fruit juice (Mangifera indica L.) as a moisturizing agent in the form of hand cream. The main component of mango, sucrose, has the ability to attract moisture from the air due to its hydroxyl groups, which helps reduce water evaporation from the skin. Mango juice was obtained by blending the mango pulp using a juicer, followed by the addition of 0.1% sodium metabisulfite as an antioxidant. The extract was then concentrated using a freeze-drying technique at -40°C and 2 atm pressure. The cream formulation developed was an oil-in-water (m/a) emulsion type, with mango fruit juice concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. These were compared to cream containing 2% glycerin and a blank formulation. Various tests were conducted to evaluate the physical quality of the cream, including homogeneity, pH, stability, emulsion type, and irritation tests using a moisture-checker. The results showed that mango fruit juice was successfully formulated into a homogeneous m/a cream, with a pH ranging from 5.55 to 7.04, and remained stable for up to 12 weeks of storage. The cream formulated with mango juice was proven to increase skin moisture without causing irritation. The higher the concentration of mango fruit juice, the greater the moisturizing effect. The 2.5% concentration provided a moisturizing effect comparable to cream containing 2% glycerin. The best moisturizing effect was achieved at a 10% concentration, which increased skin moisture by up to 14.4% after 4 weeks of use. This mango juice is effectively used in m/a type creams as a skin moisturizer. Keyword: Mango fruit juice, cream, skin moisturizer

Abstract

Climatic elements are limiting factors for plants; therefore, climate change can impact the phenology of plants. This study aims to determine the impact of climate change on the reproductive phenology of four local mango cultivars on Sulawesi Island, Indonesia. Data were collected during 2013 and 2014 by observing and recording the production of vegetative shoots, generative shoots, and fruits from the trees of each mango cultivar weekly. To assess the impact of seasonal change on fruit quality, the weight and sugar level of the ripe fruits in each cultivar were measured. Climate data were obtained from the National Centers for Environmental Prediction and the Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Region IV, Makassar. Results show that from 1979 until 2014, the climate in the study site changed from type D to type C according to the Schmidt-Ferguson Climate Classification method, indicating that the wet season became longer. Following climate change, the reproductive phenology of the four mango cultivars also changed from once to twice annually, whereby the flush of vegetative and reproductive shoots that appeared during the first period in March did not successfully develop into mature fruit but developed following the second period in July. The change of season also impacted the quality of the mangoes, as fruit produced during the longer dry season had higher sugar levels than those produced during the shorter dry season.

Abstract

In November 2025, Northern Sumatra experienced one of the most extreme flood disasters in recent history, triggered by a rare combination of sustained high-intensity rainfall and long-term land-cover disturbance. Using satellite-based rainfall estimates, historical rainfall records, and land-cover change analysis, this study examines the spatial and temporal dynamics of the event. The rainfall produced over 950 mm within four days, with daily accumulation exceeding 390 mm and hourly peaks surpassing 40 mm/hr. Statistical analysis using the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution estimated a return period of approximately 192 years for the daily maximum. Land-cover analysis revealed extensive deforestation between 1990 and 2024, including in designated protection and conservation forest zones. Flood impacts were concentrated in watersheds with high forest loss and recent land disturbance, particularly in Aceh and North Sumatra. This study highlights how compounding hydroclimatic extremes and upstream land degradation can significantly amplify flood risk. The findings underscore the importance of integrating forest conservation and multi-day rainfall indicators into regional flood risk assessments and early warning systems.

Abstract

Free radicals induce oxidative stress, which plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of various degenerative diseases. Abelmoschus manihot L., locally known as green gedi, is recognized for its rich secondary metabolite content with potential antioxidant properties. This study aimed to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the hydroalcoholic extract of green gedi leaves using the Cupric Ion Reducing Antioxidant Capacity (CUPRAC) method. Extraction was conducted via maceration using a 90% hydroalcoholic solvent, followed by comprehensive phytochemical screening and simplicia characterization. The antioxidant capacity was quantified by determining the IC50 value through linear regression analysis of inhibition percentage versus concentration. Phytochemical analysis confirmed the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, glycosides, saponins, tannins, and triterpenoids/steroids. The hydroalcoholic extract exhibited "very strong" antioxidant activity, yielding an IC50 value of 41.65 ± 0.30 µg/mL. Although this potency was slightly lower than the pure quercetin standard, it demonstrates a significant capacity for free radical neutralization. These findings underscore the potential of Abelmoschus manihot L. as a robust natural antioxidant source, supporting its further development into phytopharmaceuticals or functional health supplements for the prevention of oxidative stress-related conditions.

Abstract

Fermented vegetables are widely consumed functional foods, but scientific data on traditionally fermented bitter mustard greens are still limited. This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile and proximate composition of Brassica juncea after spontaneous fermentation and to isolate lactic acid bacteria (LAB) formed during the process. A laboratory experimental design was applied; bitter mustard greens were spontaneously fermented in brine for seven days at room temperature. Daily changes in pH and organoleptic characteristics were recorded. Phytochemical screening was performed on fresh and fermented samples (leaves, stems, brine). Proximate analysis included moisture, ash, acid-insoluble ash, crude fat, protein, and carbohydrates using AOAC methods. LAB were isolated on MRS–CaCO₃ agar and characterized phenotypically. Fermentation produced a progressive decrease in pH (from 5.0 to 2.9–3.3) accompanied by sour aroma and yellowish discoloration, indicating active lactic acid fermentation. Flavonoids, phenolics, and terpenoids were present in both fresh and fermented samples, although weaker reactions occurred in stems and brine. Proximate analysis revealed very high moisture content (88.76–95.20%), low protein (0.53–0.88%), low fat (5.03–5.50%), and low residual carbohydrates. LAB isolates (ASP-CF, ASP-B, ASP-D) were Gram-positive, catalase-negative, acid-producing, and non-H₂S-forming. In conclusion, traditional spontaneous fermentation of Brassica juncea produces a LAB-dominated fermented product that retains major phytochemical groups and exhibits proximate characteristics typical of fermented vegetables, supporting its potential as a functional food. Further molecular identification of LAB and quantitative metabolite profiling are recommended.

Abstract

Carrageenan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from red seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii), possesses a high water-holding capacity and has been widely investigated for its potential application as a skin moisturizing agent. This study aimed to formulate isolated carrageenan into a topical cream and to evaluate its physicochemical characteristics and moisturizing efficacy. Carrageenan was isolated through sequential soaking, decantation, extraction, isolation, drying, and milling processes. The isolated material was characterized in terms of solubility, viscosity, loss on drying, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Cream formulations containing carrageenan at concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10% (w/w) were prepared and compared with a 2% glycerin cream and a blank control. Physical quality evaluations included homogeneity, pH, emulsion type, stability testing for 12 weeks, skin irritation assessment, and in vivo moisturizing activity in 18 human volunteers. The isolated carrageenan complied with the requirements of USP XXX. All carrageenan-based creams exhibited acceptable homogeneity, skin-compatible pH, and satisfactory physical stability throughout the storage period. No signs of skin irritation were observed. Moisturizing efficacy increased proportionally with carrageenan concentration, with the 2.5% carrageenan cream demonstrating a moisturizing effect comparable to that of the 2% glycerin formulation. These findings support the potential of carrageenan derived from Kappaphycus alvarezii as an effective natural moisturizing agent in topical cream formulations.
