Abstract

Wounds are tissue disorders that require appropriate treatment to accelerate healing. Natural ingredients such as Jatropha curcas and Euphorbia tirucalli leaves have the potential as alternative wound healing agents. This study aims to formulate and evaluate a gel preparation combining extracts of both plants for wound care. Extraction was carried out using 96% ethanol by maceration, followed by formulation with HPMC as a gelling agent at various extract concentrations. The gel was evaluated based on organoleptic properties, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, spreadability, and adhesiveness. The results showed that the gel exhibited good physical stability, a uniform texture, a comfortable pH on the skin (4.5–6.5), and a viscosity suitable for topical application. Phytochemical compounds such as flavonoids, saponins, and tannins contribute to its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities, thereby accelerating wound healing. Therefore, the combined extract of Jatropha curcas and Euphorbia tirucalli has promising potential as a herbal gel formulation for wound healing. In conclusion, the combination of Jatropha curcas leaf extract and bone-breaking leaf extract has the potential to be developed as a natural active ingredient in a safe and environmentally friendly wound healing gel formulation.

Abstract

Babadotan leaves (Ageratum conyzoides L.) are a plant that has long been used in traditional medicine due to their anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and wound healing properties. This study aims to formulate and evaluate ointment preparations containing babadotan leaf extract as a herbal medicine. This study used a descriptive method in the laboratory and described the tests obtained. The extract was obtained through maceration using 96% ethanol solvent. Formulation evaluation included organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, adhesiveness, and viscosity. The results showed that formulations F1, F2, and F3 were yellowish green with a distinctive smell of babadotan leaves and were solid because they contained thick babadotan leaf extract. All ointment formulations had homogeneous properties, indicated by the absence of coarse grains in the ointment. The spreadability of formulas F2 and F3 met the criteria, while F1's spreadability was slightly below the lower limit. All three formulas had higher adhesiveness than the standard. The pH values of F2 and F3 were within normal limits and safe to use, while F1 was slightly more alkaline but still acceptable for topical use. All formulas were within the appropriate range for ointments, namely 2,000–50,000 cp. In conclusion, the ointment formulation based on babadotan leaf extract has the potential to be an effective herbal remedy and can be further developed in the pharmaceutical field.

Abstract

Betel leaves are commonly used to treat mouth ulcers, eliminate body odor, itching, burns, and vaginal discharge. Inflammation is the body's natural protective response to tissue damage caused by physical trauma, exposure to harmful chemicals, or microbial infection. This study aimed to formulate and evaluate the physical stability of ointment preparations containing ethanol extract of Piper betle L. Three types of ointment bases hydrocarbon, absorption, and water-soluble were developed using 8.67 g of Piper betle extract. The formulations were assessed for organoleptic characteristics, homogeneity, pH, adhesion, spreadability, and viscosity. The extraction process yielded 26.92 g of thick extract (13.5%), with active compounds such as essential oils, alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins known for their anti-inflammatory properties. Evaluation results showed that all formulations had a semi-solid consistency, homogeneous texture, and stable color and odor. The pH of all samples was 5, within the safe range for topical use. The water-soluble base exhibited the highest adhesion (6.46 seconds) and spreadability (6.53 cm), while the absorption base exhibited the highest viscosity (8,604 mPa·s). These results indicate that all ointment formulations met the required physical standards and were stable during storage. The ethanol extract of Piper betle L. can therefore be developed as a safe and effective herbal topical anti-inflammatory preparation.

Abstract

The development of a topical gel preparation with (Jatropha curcas L). joastic plant leaf extract and (Curcuma zedoaria) white turmeric aims to produce a product with optimal anti-inflammatory activity. This study involves the formulation of the gel with a combination of extracts from these two plants, which were extracted using ethanol as a solvent. Organoleptic tests for F1, F2, and F3 revealed a deep green gel with the distinctive odor of Jatropha leaves and White Turmeric, and a semi-solid gel. Homogeneity tests showed that F1, F2, and F3 were evenly distributed without any coarse grains. Meanwhile, pH tests for F1 (5), F2 (5.67), and F3 (6.33) met the pH standard for safe use on the skin. Viscosity tests for F1 (8.584cps), F2 (8.604cps), and F3 (8.666cps) indicated a good gel viscosity range. The spreadability test was conducted to measure the gel's ability to spread on the skin surface, while the adhesion test assessed the length of time the gel adhered to the skin with results of F1 5.23cm; F2 5.36cm and F3 5.71cm. The results of the F1 adhesion test were 3 seconds; F2 5 seconds and F3 9.33 seconds. Overall test results showed that the formulated gel had good physical properties, with an appropriate pH, stable viscosity, and satisfactory spreadability and adhesion. These findings suggest that the topical gel containing (Jatropha curcas L) and (Curcuma zedoaria) extracts holds potential as an alternative for topical anti-inflammatory treatment.
