Abstract

African plants, especially the leaves, are a type of medicinal plant used by the community. This African leaf contains active lavonoids that can be used to measure blood glucose levels. Tablet preparations have the advantage that they are easy to consume, so in this study African leaves (Vernonia Amygdalina) were made into tablets. The ratios of the binder used were 4%, 5%, and 6%. After obtaining the evaluation results, data analysis was performed using the Kruskal–Wallis SPSS statistical test with a confidence level of 95%. The evaluation results showed that the three formulations only fulfilled the respective requirements, namely for the angle of repose test between 16.6° - 21.3°, the granule thickening test of all formulations is below <20% and meets the requirements, the weight uniformity test has an average of 191-192 mg meeting the predetermined requirements, namely not more than 3 times with an average of 7.35 -7.36 mm and a thickness of mean +  SD 0,47  the disintegration time test of all formulations stated that they met the requirements that had been determined that is not more than 15 minutes, the friability test only on formulation III which met the requirements to get a result of 0.54% in formulations I and II did not meet the specified requirements, the hardness test of all formulations did not meet the specified test requirements.  Keywords: African leaf extract, gelatin, tablets.

Abstract

Introduction: Stunting can have long-term impacts on children's health and development. Preventing stunting in children under five requires a comprehensive approach, including adequate and balanced nutritional intake. One of the natural ingredients commonly used in traditional medicine is red ginger (Zingiber officinale var. rubrum), which contains phytochemical compounds, vitamins, minerals, and fiber beneficial for maintaining vascular and digestive health. Gummy candy formulations have the advantage of high acceptability and appeal, particularly for children who find it difficult to consume medicine. Objective: This study aims to determine the level of preference for gummy candy made with red ginger extract as a strategy to prevent stunting in children under five. Method: The study employed an experimental design using a sensory hedonic test. The inclusion criteria included mothers with toddlers. A total of 20 participants were selected using an incidental sampling technique. Result: The findings indicated that participants showed a high level of preference for red ginger extract gummy candy. On average, the gummy candy was rated as highly appealing in terms of appearance, taste, aroma, and texture. Conclusion: Red ginger extract gummy candy has significant potential to be well-accepted by children under five. Further improvements are recommended, particularly in enhancing the gummy candy's appearance and incorporating more varied shapes to increase its appeal.

Abstract

Introduction: Pregnancy is a condition that requires psychological and physiological adaptation to the influence of pregnancy hormones and mechanical stress due to the enlargement of the uterus and other tissues. Pregnant women will experience changes that make them uncomfortable, one of which is emesis gravidarum. The complaint of nausea and vomiting in emesis gravidarum is physiological, but if this complaint is not resolved immediately, it will become pathological. Objective: This community service was carried out to increase the knowledge and skills of the KWT Sri Mandiri in the cultivation of red ginger and the use of ginger plants as a non-pharmacological therapy for the initial treatment of emesis gravidarum. Method: The method used in this community service involves 3 phases of activity, namely preparation, implementation and evaluation. Result: The results of the community service activities carried out at the Sri Mandiri Sindangkasih Women Farmers Group (KWT) showed that there was an increase in the knowledge and skills of the Sri Mandiri Women Farmers Group (KWT) on red ginger cultivation and the use of ginger plants as a non-pharmacological therapy for the first treatment of emesis gravidarum. Conclusion: The conclusion from the implementation of this community service is that all stages of activities on red ginger cultivation and use of ginger plants to reduce emesis gravidarum can be carried out well supported by the enthusiasm of KWT Sri Mandiri.

Abstract

Background and Objective: Energy drinks are commonly consumed as a fast and affordable solution to fatigue, especially among adolescents and young adults. However, public knowledge about their appropriate use and the health risks of excessive intake remains limited. Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid), a conditionally essential amino acid found in many energy drinks, contributes to several physiological functions. Excessive intake of taurine may adversely affect kidney function. Method: The method of this study using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. A 0.1% ninhydrin solution was used for qualitative testing, while UV-Vis spectrophotometry was employed for quantitative measurement. Proteins were precipitated using Carrez I and Carrez II reagents before analysis. Results: A purplish-blue color change in the qualitative test confirmed the presence of taurine. Quantitative analysis revealed taurine concentrations of 0.025% and 0.012% in the two samples.  Conclusion: The results validate UV-Vis spectrophotometry as a practical and dependable technique for analyzing taurine, highlighting the importance of educating the public on the associated health risks of excessive consumption.
