Abstract

he development of this research aims to evaluate the antibacterial potential and formulation of Kaempferia galanga L. and Alpinia galanga L., which are plants containing ethyl para-methoxy cinnamate, flavonoids, polyphenols, and essential oils with potential antibacterial activity. The purpose of this study is to produce a stable gel formulation and determine its effectiveness. The simplicia was extracted using the maceration method with 70% ethanol as the solvent. The antibacterial activity of the extract was tested using the agar diffusion method at a concentration of 10%, followed by gel formulation with varying concentrations of the gelling agent, after which its effectiveness was assessed. The activity test results showed an inhibition zone of 9.63 mm for kencur and 10.3 mm for galangal, while the combination extract produced an inhibition zone of 12.14 mm. A stable formula was obtained at a concentration of 1.5% Carbopol 940 with an inhibitory effectiveness of 11.62 mm (Kaempferia galanga L. : Alpinia galanga L. ratio = 3 : 1), which is classified as having strong antibacterial activity.

Abstract

Fever is a condition where the body temperature exceeds 37°C above the normal limit. The administration of antipyretic drugs aims to reduce the temperature in the hypothalamus by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase, which prevents the formation of prostaglandins. The mentaos plant (Wrightia pubescens R.BR.) is known to have flavonoid, tannin, saponin, alkaloid, and steroid chemical compounds. The purpose of this study was to determine the antipyretic activity of mentaos leaf extract (Wrightia pubescens R.BR.) and to determine the most optimal dose as an antipyretic from mentaos leaf extract (Wrightia pubescens R.BR.). The method used was the pretest-posttest-only control design method. Group I was given Na-CMC 0.5% as a negative control, Group II was given paracetamol 9 mg/kgBB as a positive control, and Groups III, IV, and V were given mentaos leaf extract at doses of 120 mg/kgBB, 160 mg/kgBB, and 200 mg/kgBB, respectively. The results of statistical analysis showed that there was antipyretic activity in the three doses of mentaos leaf extract (Wrightia pubescens R.BR.) and that the optimal antipyretic effect was in the third dose group of mentaos leaf extract, 200 mg/KgBB.
