Abstract

Disinfectant products with excessive chlorine could be dangerous for health and need quality control. It is important to develop an analytical method for monitoring product quality. The main objective of this work is to develop an alternative method and evaluate the analytical performance of visible spectrophotometry for determining free chlorine in disinfectant products based on the Prussian blue decomposition process. The capability of chlorine to oxidize ferrous to ferric ions makes the Prussian blue generated by ferrosulfate and potassium ferricyanide is decomposed and measured by spectrophotometer. The formation of Prussian blue was improved by optimizing some reaction conditions and assessing incubation time. Linearity, analytical concentration range, precision, accuracy, detection limit, and quantitation limit parameters were among the examined analytical parameters. The results showed that the optimum concentration of ferrosulfate, potassium ferysianide, and hydrochloric acid for Prussian blue formation was 2.0 mmol L-1, 3.0 mmol L-1, and 0.5 mol L-1, respectively, with 15 minutes incubation time after chlorine addition. Analytical performance parameters seemed appropriate for routine analysis purposes. The developed method can also be applied as an alternative analytical method to determine the free chlorine concentration of disinfection products in the market.

Abstract

Background: The trend of using nutraceuticals in Indonesia increases every year. This study aims to describe nutraceuticals consumed in pediatrics with epilepsy as additional antiepileptic therapy and analyze their potential drug interactions. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional study with total sampling method which was carried out in the period of June to July 2020. Inclusion criteria were children with epilepsy aged 0-17 years who were members of the Indonesian Epilepsy Community, had a doctor's diagnosis of epilepsy, received oral antiepileptic medication, and took nutraceutical products/food supplements. Data were analyzed descriptively based on data obtained through electronic data filling sheets and interviews. Results: There were 106 participants from the Indonesian Epilepsy Community in total, with 14 children (13.2 %) using nutraceutical supplements. They were male (n=8; 57.1%), 2-12 years old (n=10; 71.4%), and good nutritional status (n=10; 71.4%). Most nutraceuticals consumed were dietary supplements containing vitamins (n=10; 71.4%). Of the eight potential drug interactions identified, 25% (n=2) were significant interactions, and 75% (n=6) were minor interactions. The potential for major interactions occurred in administering nutraceutical products containing vitamin D with the antiepileptic drug phenytoin and phenobarbital. Conclusion: In this study, nutraceuticals and antiepileptic drugs had a little clinically meaningful interaction effect.

Abstract

Background: Flavonoids found mainly as pharmacologically active natural ingredient of moringa (Moringa oleifera L.). Therefore, optimizing the solvent to maximize the levels of flavonoid components is needed. Objective: This study was conducted to determine the optimum solvent composition for extracting flavonoid compounds from moringa leaves using the simplex lattice design (SLD). Methods: Moringa leaves were extracted using the sonication method with five combinations of 96% ethanol and water as the solvent. The solvent composition was optimized using Design-Expert version 11 software. Moreover, UV-Vis spectrophotometry was used to screen and identify flavonoid content. Results: Flavonoids were detected in moringa extract. Using the F test, a valid SLD equation, y= 440,243(A) + 142,983(B) - 47,324(A)(B), was obtained. This equation shows that the solvent ethanol 96% : water (100:0) was the best solvent and produced the maximum amount of moringa flavonoid content, which was 440,2427 mg QE/g extract. Conclusion: The flavonoid content was directly proportional to the high composition of 96% ethanol.
