Abstract

Penelitian ini mengeksplorasi potensi antibakteri dari ekstrak kulit pisang kepok (Musa spp.) terhadap bakteri Staphylococcus aureus (Sp. aureus) menggunakan metode ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) dan mengaplikasikannya dalam bentuk patch hydrogel untuk pengobatan sariawan. Ekstrak kulit pisang kepok, yang mengandung senyawa aktif seperti flavonoid, tanin, saponin, dan fitosterol, menunjukkan aktivitas antibakteri yang signifikan terhadap Sp. aureus. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa waktu sonikasi 50 menit mampu menghasilkan rendemen tertinggi pada ekstraksi kulit pisang kepok. Ekstrak kulit pisang kepok bekerja efektif sebagai antibakteri terhadap Sp. aureus pada konsentrasi 60-80%. Analisis GC-MS mengidentifikasi senyawa antimikroba dan antiinflamasi dalam ekstrak. Formulasi hydrogel patch film dengan ekstrak 60-80% memenuhi standar fisik dan kimia, termasuk ketahanan lipatan dan pH yang sesuai untuk penggunaan di rongga mulut, menunjukkan potensi sebagai bahan anti-sariawan.

Abstract

The surge in mask consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic led to the widespread use of disposable polypropylene masks for protection. However, the accumulation of used masks poses environmental challenges due to the slow degradation of polypropylene. Here, we investigate the potential of Tenebrio molitor larvae in degrading polypropylene masks, exploiting their synthetic polymer-breaking enzymes and associated microflora. In this study, we implemented various feeding strategies and established specific feed compositions to assess T. molitor larvae's consumption behavior towards polypropylene masks. Over a 21-day observation period, we noted a consumption rate of 0.4% of masks, with a 7.5% mortality rate among the larvae. The average daily consumption rate was 0.201 grams, resulting in a 2.3% increase in larval weight and the production of 0.4635 grams of feces. Our findings highlight the potential of T. molitor larvae as effective mask degraders. Optimizing cultivation conditions and feeding strategies may further enhance microbial diversity, potentially introducing more polypropylene degraders within T. molitor, thereby expediting mask degradation. This study emphasizes the promising role of T. molitor larvae in addressing the environmental challenges posed by the accumulation of polypropylene masks.Keywords: Mask, Degrade, Tenebrio molitor, Microflora, Polypropylene
