Abstract

Temulawak extract was synthesized using temulawak sodium alginate. The nanoparticle formula was obtained by combining the characteristics of temuwak extract and temusawak. The microbeads were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The size of Alg-Curcuma was measured at SEM. The particle size distribution of the sample was analyzed using FTIR spectra. The results showed that the size of the resulting beads is microparticle in size. It was found that the temurawak extract is a good candidate as an anticancer agent. Therefore, there are several recommendations that can be done to optimize the synthesis of the material. The study reported that the recommended parameter is 12.5 kV with a flow rate of 0.1 mL/h (first batch synthesis).

Abstract

Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan keterampilan peserta dalam mengolah umbi porang menjadi berbagai produk pangan sehat dan bernilai gizi tinggi melalui pendekatan Proyek Penguatan Profil Pelajar Pancasila (P5) dalam Kurikulum Merdeka Belajar. Umbi porang merupakan komoditas lokal yang memiliki potensi ekonomi serta kandungan glukomanan yang bermanfaat bagi kesehatan, namun pemanfaatannya sebagai pangan olahan masih terbatas di masyarakat. Melalui pendekatan P5, kegiatan ini dirancang untuk menumbuhkan kreativitas, gotong royong, kemandirian, dan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa SDIT Lentera Insan Depok. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi penyuluhan gizi, pelatihan teknik pengolahan porang menjadi produk beras analog porang, serta praktik langsung dalam kelompok kecil. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan peserta mengenai nilai gizi porang dan teknik pengolahannya, serta tumbuhnya keterampilan dalam menghasilkan produk pangan yang inovatif dan layak konsumsi. Kegiatan ini diharapkan dapat mendorong diversifikasi pangan lokal serta membuka peluang ekonomi kreatif berbasis potensi daerah.

Abstract

The simultaneous use of herbal medicines and cardiovascular drugs is prevalent in Indonesia, a country rich in ethnomedicinal diversity. However, such combinations may lead to clinically significant herb–drug interactions, potentially compromising therapeutic efficacy and safety. This narrative review aims to summarize and evaluate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions between commonly used Indonesian medicinal herbs and cardiovascular agents. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. The included studies reported interactions involving cytochrome P450 modulation, P-glycoprotein activity, and receptor-level mechanisms. Medicinal plants such as Panax ginseng, Allium sativum, Ginkgo biloba, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Zingiber officinale, and Cassia species were found to affect drug absorption, metabolism, and bioavailability. These interactions, primarily through CYP3A4 and P-gp modulation, altered the pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs such as warfarin, digoxin, verapamil, and simvastatin. Some herbs also exert synergistic or antagonistic pharmacodynamic effects, particularly against anticoagulants and antihypertensives. Given the chronic nature of cardiovascular therapy, herb–drug interactions pose serious clinical concerns. Enhanced awareness and monitoring are essential to prevent adverse events and therapeutic failure. Further research is needed to establish safe and evidence-based integration of herbal medicines into cardiovascular care.
