Abstract

This study aims to make environmentally friendly bioplastics. This is because the use of plastic creates a plastic waste problem which is very difficult to handle. After all, it is difficult to decompose. Excessive use of plastic will be bad for the safety of the earth in the future. One of the innovations to be developed is the synthesis of environmentally friendly bioplastics. The basic ingredients for making bioplastics come from starch, cellulose, and chitosan. The process of making bioplastics uses several formulations including A0 (control), A1, A2 and A3. The research results showed that the biodegradability test was good for the A3 formula and the water absorption test was 3.77% and water resistance was 96.2%.

Abstract

This study utilizes natural ingredients as a source of active ingredients in ointment preparations. Lahuna leaves and binahong leaves have potential as a source of active ingredients which, based on phytochemical tests, contain flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, tannins and steroids. Ointment preparations were made with 5 formulas based on organoleptic evaluation showing the five formulas in semi-solid form, color and characteristic odor of extracts. homogeneous and can spread evenly. Test the pH of ointment preparations according to SNI 164399-1996 for the quality of skin preparations. In vitro test showed formulas I and III had inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923.

Abstract

The body's immune system is one of the natural defenses in the human body, functioning to ward off various diseases, including those that emerged after the Covid-19 pandemic. One plant with potential as an antioxidant and easily found in the environment is watermelon. Jam made from watermelon rind and secang wood, with various formulations, namely 100% watermelon rind: 0% secang (F1), 90% watermelon rind: 10% secang (F2), 80% watermelon rind: 2% secang (F3), and 70% watermelon rind: 3% secang (F4), is expected to possess good antioxidant properties. A promising antioxidant formulation for watermelon rind jam and secang is the one with 70% watermelon rind and 30% secang (F4), having an IC50 value of 144.27 g/mL, which is classified as a moderate antioxidant. Among the four jam formulations, panelists preferred the jam formulation (F4) without the addition of sweetened condensed milk in terms of color and texture. However, for the jam formulation (F4) with the addition of sweetened condensed milk, panelists favored it in terms of aroma and taste. The jam formulation (F4) meets the quality standards for fruit jam based on INS 3746:2008, including total plate count, arsenic, and tin categories.

Abstract

Infectious diseases caused by microorganisms are the main cause of high morbidity and mortality in the world. One of the plants that have the potential as an antiseptic is a lahuna leaf. Lahuna leaves contain active antibacterial compounds and the addition of betel leaf to the liquid soap formulations can strengthen the activity of the antiseptic produced. The purpose of this research is to test the effectiveness of liquid soap formulations of lahuna leaves and betel leaves as an antiseptic. The methods used include phytochemical screening, physical observation of liquid soap formulations, and antibacterial activity tests using agar diffusion methods. The results of the phytochemical analysis showed that lahuna leaves contain flavonoids, tannins, terpenoids, and alkaloids, while betel leaves contain flavonoids, saponins, tannins, terpenoids, and alkaloids. The liquid soap formulation of lahuna leaves and betel leaves has a clear yellow color, distinctive aroma, liquid form, rough taste, and lots of foam and has very strong inhibition against Staphylococcus aureus which is characterized by clear zones formed for each formulation I (22.4 mm), formulation II (21.8 mm) and formulation III (20.1 mm). These results indicate the potential of liquid soap formulations of lahuna leaves and betel leaves as antiseptic soap.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the antioxidant content and organoleptic properties of herbal tea using a mixture of secang wood and stevia leaves. The sample preparation method involves separation based on wetness level, washing, drying, and grinding to powder. Phytochemical tests showed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, alkaloids, tannins, terpenoids and steroids in both samples. The water content test shows the value is in accordance with the quality standards for packaged dry tea. Antioxidant activity was tested using the DPPH method, and the herbal wedang formulation with a proportion of 1:1 (FIII) showed the highest antioxidant activity of 76%. Organoleptic tests showed that the panelists really liked the color, aroma and taste of the FIII formulation. The overall results show that the FIII formulation is the best choice with high antioxidant content and good acceptance from consumers.
