Abstract

Kepok banana flower (Musa acuminate x M. balbisiana) is known to contain flavonoid, polyvenol and saponin compounds that function as antioxidants. The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity and to determine the IC50 value of lotion of kepok banana flower (Musa acuminate x M. balbisiana) as an antioxidant. Antioxidant activity testing of lotion of kepok banana flower (Musa acuminate x M. balbisiana). Ethanol extract of pisang bunga kapok was obtained by extraction using maceration method with 96% ethanol for 3x24 hours. Then the extract was formulated into lotion preparations with variations of banana flower extract, namely 0.4%, 0.6%, and 0.8%. The results of the preparation of pisang kepok flower (Musa acuminate x M. balbisiana) with various concentrations of extracts meet the requirements of a good lotion preparation. Furthermore, it was tested using the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryilhydrazyl) method with vitamin C comparator measured at a wavelength of 516.20 nm. The results of the lotion test of ethanol extract of kepok banana flower have antioxidant activity with IC50 values at FI 0.4% (33.83µg/ml), FII 0.6% (27.85µg/ml), FIII 0.8% (10.04µg/ml). Based on the IC50 data, it can be seen that FIII with a concentration of 0.8% has a very strong antioxidant value compared to FI and FII lotions. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)

Abstract

Excessive exposure to UV rays can cause various skin damage so that sunscreen preparations are needed. Kepok banana flowers (Musa acuminata x M. balbisiana) contain flavonoid compounds that have the potential as active ingredients in natural sunscreens, especially in the form of spray gel preparations. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in carbopol concentration on the physical characteristics and SPF value of spray gel preparations using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, and to determine the most optimal formula. Ethanol extract of kepok banana flowers was obtained by maceration method using 96% ethanol. Sunscreen spray gel from ethanol extract of kepok banana flowers was formulated with variations in carbopol concentrations of 0,5% (F1), 0,75% (F2), and 1% (F3). The resulting spray gel was tested including organoleptic, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, adhesion, spray pattern, and SPF value. The results showed that variations in carbopol concentration significantly affected the physical characteristics of the preparation, especially the organoleptic texture, pH, viscosity, and spray pattern, but did not significantly affect the SPF value of the spray gel preparation of ethanol extract of kepok banana flowers (Musa acuminata x M. balbisiana). Formula 2 with a carbopol concentration of 0,75% was determined as the most optimal formula with the most balanced physical characteristics and an SPF value of 15.616 with an ultra protection category.
