Abstract

Body odor is a common problem experienced by people in tropical climates such as Indonesia. Continuous use of chemical-based deodorants risks causing irritation and other skin disorders, thus driving the need for natural alternatives that are safer and more environmentally friendly. This study aims to obtain the optimal powder size and soaking time in producing beluntas leaf extract as well as the optimal concentration as a spray deodorant. Extraction was carried out through the maceration method with variations in powder size of 60/80, 80/100, 100/120, 120/140 and 140/160 mesh and soaking times of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 days. Parameters analyzed included yield, residual solvent content, flavonoid content, and antioxidant activity (IC₅₀). The best extract was then formulated into a spray deodorant with concentrations of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%, then tested for physical stability, organoleptic properties, and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis. The results showed that 100/120 mesh powder with a five-day soaking time produced the best extract with a yield of 11.75% and a residual solvent content of 0.73%. The extract contains active flavonoids with very strong antioxidant activity (IC₅₀ = 3.79 ppm). The deodorant formulation with a 25% concentration provided the most optimal physical and antibacterial performance, thus having the potential to be developed as an effective and safe natural deodorant product.

Abstract

This study entitled Ethnobiological Study of Chingkui, Traditional Food from Lamno, Aceh Jaya, Indonesia aimed to document the ethnobiological dimensions of chingkui, focusing on plant diversity, cultural significance, and knowledge transmission. A qualitative ethnobiological approach was employed through semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and ethnobotanical documentation involving 60 informants from three villages in Lamno. The study identified 13 plant species from 13 families used in chingkui preparation, each possessing culinary, medicinal, and symbolic functions. Findings revealed that chingkui represents a biocultural heritage integrating ecological knowledge, spirituality, and communal identity, with women playing a central role in preserving traditional knowledge.

Abstract

Kematian tiga penumpang kapal pesiar MV Hondius akibat wabah hantavirus mengentak kesadaran global akan eskalasi ancaman zoonosis rodensia. Penyakit lewat ekskreta tikus ini mengintai wilayah tropis seperti Indonesia akibat padatnya permukiman dan rapuhnya sanitasi. Penanggulangan dengan disinfektan kimia secara terus-menerus justru memicu risiko resistensi mikroba dan pencemaran. Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi potensi serta mekanisme tumbuhan etnofarmasi dan bumbu dapur Aceh sebagai agen bio-disinfektan alami berskala domestik. Metode yang digunakan adalah studi literatur (narrative review) dengan menelisik data etnofarmasi, profil metabolit sekunder, dan mekanisme virologis pada kekayaan flora Aceh. Hasil telaah mengidentifikasi 18 spesies tumbuhan lokal, termasuk nilam, serai wangi, dan sirih yang kaya akan minyak atsiri dan senyawa fenolik. Karakter lipofilik senyawa aktifnya bekerja secara mekanis melisis selubung lipid Hantavirus sekaligus melumpuhkan bakteri zoonotik seperti Leptospira. Intervensi formula ini terbukti efektif jika diaplikasikan secara presisi pada titik kritis seperti gudang pangan dan drainase urban. Kelemahan stabilitas sediaan berbasis air disiasati melalui konsep freshly prepared (1–2 hari) atau penambahan jeruk purut dan belimbing wuluh sebagai pengawet asam alami. Melalui pendekatan ini, kearifan lokal etnofarmasi Aceh berhasil menjawab tantangan kemandirian sanitasi masyarakat secara murah, aman, dan rasional ilmiah.
