Abstract

Nature provides various compounds that can provide anti-inflammatory activity, one of which is the compound contained in mangrove roots (Sonneratia alba). In these plants, especially in the roots, there are secondary metabolite compounds such as alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, triterpenoids and from various reported research results, flavonoids have anti-inflammatory properties. The medicinal preparation that the researchers want to make is a gel preparation that is used for topical treatment therapy. The research was carried out with 15 rats into 5 test groups. Positive control group: given Diclofenac Sodium gel (Voltadex) 20 g (1%), negative control group: given gel without ethanol extract, 2.5% concentration group: given 2.5% ethanol extract gel, 5% concentration group: given 5% ethanol extract gel, 10% concentration group: 10% ethanol extract gel was given. The data was analyzed descriptively and presented in the form of tables and graphs. The research results showed that the Sonneratia alba ethanol extract gel preparation had anti-inflammatory activity. The research results show that the ethanol extract of Sonneratia alba mangrove roots can be used as a gel preparation and in in vivo testing the gel preparation of Sonneratia alba mangrove root ethanol extract has anti-inflammatory activity. The control group of Sonneratia alba mangrove root ethanol extract gel preparations of concentrations of 2.5%, 5% and 10% had a swelling inhibition percentage, which means that Sonneratia alba mangrove root ethanol extract gel preparations of 2.5%, 5% and 10% concentration had anti-inflammatory activity.

Abstract

Ficus minahassae fruit is known to contain bioactive compounds that have the potential to act as antibacterial agents. This study aims to determine the antibacterial activity of Propionibacterium acnes from F. minahassae fruit extract. F. minahassae fruit is extracted using ethanol. Antibacterial activity test using the disc diffusion method. Based on the results of the study, it was obtained that F. minahassae fruit extract was able to inhibit P. acnes bacteria at concentrations of 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 mg/disc with inhibition zone diameters of 11.68, 13.33, 14.35, 15.47, and 17.82 mm, respectively. F. minahassae fruit extract can be developed as a raw material for drugs, especially anti-bacterial P. acnes, which causes acne.

Abstract

The use of cosmetics such as lipstick aims to improve the natural appearance of the lips and induce discoloration. A problem that is often worrying about today is the presence of prohibited dyes in lipstick preparations' main components. Rhodamine B is a synthetic dye prohibited in cosmetics, especially lipsticks. This research aims to analyze the Rhodamine B dye in lipsticks that do not have a distribution permit from BPOM circulating in the Beriman Tomohon market.The research method was Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), followed by wavelength measurement on UV-Vis Spectrophotometry. The research population was all red lipstick preparations and 10 (ten) different lipsticks as a sample.Data analysis in this research is to find the RF value obtained from TLC then make a graph of the equation y = bx + a then look for the x value to measure the Rhodamine B content in lipstick. The results of this research were obtained from 1 (one) sample of lipstick label L(I) positive containing Rhodamine B. Visually, the lipstick of the L(I) label has a pink color and fluorescence orange when irradiated with 366nm UV, Rhodamine B has an Rf value of 0.85. In contrast, the L(I) sample has an Rf value of 0.84. Rhodamine B has a wavelength of 544nm, and the lipstick sample L(I) has an absorbance of 0.362 which has a Rhodamine B content of 0.4115%.

Abstract

Betel is one of the medicinal plants often found around us. Because of its properties as an antiseptic and wound medicine, this plant can be cultivated. This research aimed to determine the antibacterial activity of green betel leaf essential oil against Propionibacterium acnes. This laboratory experimental research used a completely randomized design with three repetitions in five concentration treatments, one positive control and one negative control for Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. The test method used was the agar diffusion method. Data was collected by observing and measuring the inhibition zone on each Petri dish, which was then tabulated. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. At a concentration of 10µl, green betel leaf essential oil can be an antibacterial agent against Propionibacterium acnes, according to the results of measuring the diameter of the inhibition zone produced.

Abstract

Avocado seeds (Persea americana) have long been used in traditional medicine and are empirically believed to reduce fever. This study aimed to evaluate the antipyretic activity of an avocado seed infusion in male white rats (Rattus norvegicus) induced with peptone. The infusion was prepared using distilled water at 90 °C. The antipyretic test consisted of five groups: a negative control (Na-CMC), a positive control (paracetamol), and three treatment groups receiving avocado seed infusion at doses of 100, 200, and 300 mg/200 g body weight. Fever was induced by intramuscular injection of 5% peptone (1 mL/200 g body weight). Rectal temperature was recorded at 30-minute intervals for 3 hours. The results showed that all treatment doses reduced rectal temperature after 180 minutes. The greatest reduction was observed at a dose of 300 mg/200 g body weight, with a decrease of 2.16 °C, indicating that avocado seed infusion exhibits dose-dependent antipyretic activity.
