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.

Abstract

Balm is one of the pharmaceutical products with an ointment base that uses essential oils as one of the ingredients in its formulation. One of the essential oils found in Indonesia is Eucalyptus resinifera essential oil. In Indonesia, the use of E. resinifera leaf essential oil in balm stick formulations has not yet been reported. The purpose of this study was to formulate and characterize a balm stick preparation from E. resinifera leaf essential oil for the development of health products. The methods used included the formulation of E. resinifera essential oil balm with four essential oil concentrations (0%, 15%, 20%, and 25%) and evaluation of the preparations through homogeneity, spreadability, adhesion, pH, and skin irritation tests. The results showed that the best formula was Formula III, containing 20% essential oil, which met the requirements for a good balm preparation based on the results of the homogeneity test (homogeneous), spreadability test (3.9 cm), adhesion test (>1 minute), pH test (4.6), and skin irritation test (no irritation observed), and was also the most preferred according to the organoleptic test.
