Abstract

Gambier (Uncaria gambir Roxb.) contains potent bioactive compounds with strong natural antimicrobial properties, making it a promising ingredient for acne treatment. However, its application in topical formulations remains limited due to a lack of understanding regarding the impact of processing conditions, particularly heating, on its functional efficacy. This study investigated the effect of heating duration on the characteristics of an acne treatment balm formulated with black cube gambier. Experiments using a completely randomized design (CRD) were carried out for 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes of heating durations to evaluate the balm's physical, chemical, and microbial properties. The results demonstrate that heating duration significantly influenced key parameters, including homogeneity, spreadability, melting point, irritation potential, texture, color, pH, total phenol content, and antibacterial activity (p < 0.05). The most optimal results were obtained at 120 minutes, yielding a balm with superior homogeneity, spreadability (4.47 cm), melting point (50°C), pH (7.44), total phenol content (54.28%), and diameter of the inhibition zone (16.35 mm). FTIR analysis confirmed an increase in phenolic compound stability, indicating enhanced antibacterial potential. These findings suggest that extended heating duration improves the stability and performance of gambier-based formulations. The optimized acne balm formulation highlights the potential of locally sourced gambier as a natural, eco-friendly acne treatment. Further research is recommended to evaluate product shelf-life, consumer acceptability, and industrial scalability.

Abstract

Tamarillo (Solanum betaceum), a fruit native to South America, thrives in the highlands of Indonesia and is rich in bioactive compounds with significant potential for functional food development. This study employs a comprehensive literature review of 108 indexed national and international journals to explore the application of tamarillo in food products. Despite its nutritional benefits—such as high vitamin C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber—tamarillo remains underutilized in culinary applications. Current products incorporating tamarillo include syrup, ice cream, jam, soft candy, jelly, steamed bread, cheese, and yogurt. These products leverage tamarillo’s bioactive properties, such as its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, which contribute to health benefits like improved digestion, immune support, and chronic disease prevention. However, further research is needed to expand its applications and optimize its potential in functional foods

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of adding ruku-ruku (Ocimum tenuiflorum) essential oil on the characteristics and antioxidant activity of lip balm, as well as to determine the best formulation. The research employed a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of different concentrations of essential oil: A (0%), B (1%), C (2%), D (3%), and E (4%). Data were analyzed using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) followed by Duncan’s New Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at a 5% significance level. Evaluated parameters included homogeneity, applicability, irritation test, and organoleptic properties (color, aroma, and texture). The results showed that treatment B (1% essential oil) was the best formulation, with a pH value of 5.61, homogeneous texture without coarse particles, uniform and colorless application, and no irritation. It exhibited antioxidant activity of 53.83% and increased moisture by 21.56%. Organoleptic scores indicated good panelist preference for color (4.04), aroma (3.52), and texture (4.16). The main compounds identified were eugenol, limonene, and caryophyllene. Further studies are needed to assess shelf life stability.

Abstract

The growing environmental impact of plastic waste has sparked the development of alternative biodegradable materials. The purpose of this study is to assess the properties of bioplastic straws manufactured from arrowroot starch with various concentrations of chitosan (1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% as a strengthening agent). Arrowroot starch was used for its high amylose content (22.70%), which promotes film formation. The straws were made by blending gelatinized arrowroot starch with dissolved chitosan and glycerol as a plasticizer, then drying and shaping. The resulting bioplastic straws were tested for hardness, solubility, water absorption, biodegradability, and functional groups using FTIR and SEM. The results revealed that increasing the chitosan concentration had a substantial effect on the mechanical and functional qualities of the straws. The formulation with 3% chitosan performed the best in terms of hardness (4.11 N/cm2), moderate solubility (37.55%), excellent water absorption (41.61%), and biodegradation (79.44%). FTIR spectra revealed the interaction of hydroxyl (−OH) groups in starch with amine (−NH2) groups in chitosan, indicating a strong hydrogen bond. SEM scans revealed a tight and uniform surface structure in the 3% treatment, indicating structural integrity. The addition of chitosan effectively increased the straw's water resistance and mechanical strength. This study emphasizes the feasibility of using local agricultural resources to create ecologically friendly bioplastic straws.Keywords: arrowroot starch, biodegradability, bioplastic, chitosan, straw

Abstract

Palm sugar (Arenga pinnata Merr.) is a natural sweetener with the potential to be developed as an alternative to white sugar due to its distinctive sensory characteristics and its reported lower glycemic index. However, quantitative data on the glycemic index of various forms of palm sugar products remain limited. This study aims to analyze the in vitro glycemic index of various palm sugar products, namely liquid sugar, molded sugar, and granulated palm sugar, and to compare them with white sugar as a reference. Additionally, the study also evaluates the chemical characteristics (moisture content and ash content) and organoleptic properties of each product. The glycemic index determination was performed using an in vitro method based on enzymatic digestion simulation and the calculation of the area under the curve (AUC) of glucose release, with glucose serving as the reference food. The results of the study indicate that all palm sugar products have a low glycemic index, namely 39 for liquid sugar, 37 for molded sugar, and 35 for granulated palm sugar, while white sugar has a moderate glycemic index of 60. The differences in glycemic index values are related to variations in sugar composition, mineral content, and the physical characteristics of each product. Organoleptic testing showed that palm sugar, particularly granulated palm sugar, received good acceptance for its color, aroma, taste, and texture. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate that palm sugar has the potential to serve as a low-glycemic index alternative sweetener, supporting the development of downstream palm sugar products and the diversification of healthier food options.

Abstract

Sugar palm (Arenga pinnata) flour has the potential to be developed into nanofibers for use as natural biopolymer materials. Ultrasonication is a promising method for modifying particle size and structural properties; however, the effects of different ultrasonication times on the characteristics of sugar palm flour nanofibers have not been fully explored. This study analysed the effect of different ultrasonication times on the physicochemical properties of sugar palm flour nanofibers produced with an ultrasonic probe homogeniser. A Completely Randomized  Design (CRD) was applied with five ultrasonication times: 0 (control), 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes, each with three replications. The evaluated parameters included morphology (SEM), particle size, crystallinity (XRD), viscosity, and color characteristics (CIE L*, a*, b*). Increasing ultrasonication time significantly reduced particle size from 177.33 ± 85.55 nm to 19.8 ± 14.89 nm, resulting in a smoother, more homogeneous nanofiber morphology. XRD analysis revealed an amorphous diffraction pattern within the 2? range of 13–25°, indicating the absence of an ordered crystalline structure. The viscosity remained largely stable (9522–9524 mPa·s) between all treatments. Color analysis showed stable L*, a*, and b* values, suggesting that ultrasonication did not induce pigment degradation or noticeable visual changes. These findings demonstrate that prolonged ultrasonication effectively produces uniform, stable, and nano-sized sugar palm flour fibers.

Abstract

Palm sugar derived from sugar palm sap (Arenga pinnata Merr.) is widely used as a natural sweetener and contains various minor compounds that may contribute to its functional properties. Differences in processing intensity during the production of liquid, molded, and granulated palm sugar may induce chemical transformations affecting metabolite composition and antioxidant activity. However, comparative information linking processing level with these changes remains limited. This study evaluated the effects of different processing levels on the chemical characteristics and DPPH radical scavenging activity of palm sugar products. Antioxidant activity was determined using the DPPH method at a concentration of 1000 ppm, while metabolite profiling was conducted using untargeted LC–MS/MS Q-TOF in positive ion mode over an m/z range of 50–1200. Untargeted LC–MS/MS combined with principal component analysis (PCA) indicated differences in metabolite profiles among products, with liquid palm sugar showing the highest number of tentatively annotated features, followed by molded and granulated palm sugar. Increasing processing intensity was associated with shifts in metabolite composition, including reduced occurrence of oligosaccharide-related compounds and tentative detection of monosaccharide-related and heat-derived compounds such as maltol and phenolic-type derivatives. DPPH radical scavenging activity increased with processing level, reaching 39.23%, 55.93%, and 63.76% for liquid, molded, and granulated palm sugar, respectively. These findings suggest that thermal processing modifies the chemical profile of palm sugar and may improve its antioxidant-related properties under the conditions studied.

Abstract

The process of making skin crackers, which is carried out in four stages of frying, results in a high oil content in the product. This is a separate obstacle for business actors in making skin crackers. A high oil content can cause rancidity in the product and requires a long time for oil draining in the production process. IKM partner "Rizky" which produces skin crackers in Lubuk Buaya, Padang City still uses a manual spinning process at each stage of frying. The purpose of this activity is to apply an oil spinning machine (spinner) in the process of making skin crackers at Mitra IKM "Rizky" to increase the production efficiency and quality of skin crackers. The method in this activity is carried out by providing a semi-automatic oil spinning machine followed by training and assistance in using an oil spinning machine and practicing from the first stage of frying to the last stage in making skin crackers. The result of this activity is that the use of an oil spinning machine can shorten the oil draining process time from 3.5 hours to 15 min without damaging the product. In addition, the use of an oil spinning machine provided more optimal oil extraction results than the manual spinning method. The oil content in the skin crackers decreased, thereby reducing the potential for rancidity in the product. The conclusion from this activity is that the use of oil-spinning machines in the skin cracker production process at Mitra IKM can increase the production efficiency and improve the quality of skin crackers.
