Abstract

The addition of sodium cyclamate is commonly found in flavored syrup beverages in Indonesia and often exceeds BPOM’s limits. Excessive consumption over time may pose health risks. This study aims to detect sodium cyclamate, determine its concentration in flavored syrup beverages sold in Kertak Hanyar, and validate the analytical method used. Qualitative precipitation tests and quantitative UV-Vis spectrophotometry were employed. Four samples were analyzed, showing that three tested positive in the qualitative test, while all contained sodium cyclamate in the quantitative analysis, with concentrations ranging from 71.35 to 152.43 mg/kg. The discrepancy is likely due to the higher detection limit of the precipitation test, making it less sensitive to low concentrations. Method validation showed good performance, with an r-value of 0.9954, LOD and LOQ of 1.5405 mg/L and 5.1351 mg/L, RSD from 0 to 0.4773%, and recovery between 84.76% and 92.86%. The method met validation criteria, including linearity, detection capability, precision, and accuracy. In conclusion, sodium cyclamate levels in all samples were within BPOM’s safety limit of 250 mg/kg, ensuring their safety for consumption, while the analytical method was validated for determining sodium cyclamate using UV-Vis spectrophotometry.

Abstract

The skin can be cleansed and treated using soap. The most common bacteria found on the skin is Staphylococcus aureus, which can cause various skin problems. A natural ingredient known for its antibacterial properties is green Phyllanthus niruri leaves. To facilitate its application, it is necessary to develop it into a stable liquid soap formulation in terms of physical quality. The aim of this study was to determine the physical stability of a liquid soap formulation containing ethanol extract of green Phyllanthus niruri leaves, both before and after undergoing a cycling test on the best formulation.This research began with the processing of simplicia and extraction, followed by the formulation of liquid soap using green Phyllanthus niruri leaf extract with variations in KOH concentrations (14%, 16%, and 18%). The liquid soap formulations were then evaluated until the best formula was selected and subjected to a cycling test. Among the three formulas tested, the best formulation based on physical characteristics was F2, which used 16% KOH concentration. This formula was subsequently subjected to a cycling test for six cycles. The cycling test included organoleptic examination, homogeneity, pH, viscosity, foam height, and foam stability. The conclusion of this research on cycling tests shows that the physical quality of the preparation in the best formula, namely F2 (16%), showed significant changes in physical quality which was stable for 6 cycles.

Abstract

Sangkareho (Callicarpa longifolia Lam.), a plant in the Lamiaceae family, is utilized as traditional medicine in Kalimantan. Its leaves are rich in flavonoids, known for their pharmacological activities like antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and astringent properties. This study aimed to conduct phytochemical screening and to determine the total flavonoid content of sangkareho leaf extracts obtained through sequential extraction using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol 96%, analyzed by UV- Vis spectrophotometry. Phytochemical screening showed that the sangkareho leaf extract contains flavonoids, tannins, saponins, steroids/triterpenoids, and alkaloids. Total flavonoid content was quantified using quercetin as the standard and expressed as quercetin equivalents (QE) per gram of extract.The Result was shown that, the average total flavonoid content in n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and 96% ethanol extracts were 43.93 QE/g extract, 65.80 QE/g extract, and 92.21 QE/g extract, respectively. The data processing by One Way Anova with a p value <0.05, indicating a significant influence of multistage extraction methods on determining the total flavonoid content in Sangkareho leaf extracts.

Abstract

Acne is a common skin problem experienced by teenagers and adults. One alternative plant that has the potential to overcome acne is basil leaves which can be formulated into a clay mask preparation. Claymask is used for oily or sensitive skin because of its ability to deeply cleanse the skin, absorb excess oil and detoxify the facial skin. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there were differences in the physical properties of claymask preparations before and after the stability test of physical properties with variations in kaolin and bentonite concentrations in claymask preparations from basil leaf extract. This research method was carried out by extracting basil leaves using the maceration method. The formulation of clay mask preparations from basil leaf extract used variations of kaolin and bentonite bases respectively, namely, F1 (25% and 3%), F2 (30% and 4%) and F3 (35% and 5%). Evaluation of the physical properties of the clay mask preparations included organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, spreadability, adhesiveness, viscosity, drying time and physical stability tests of the preparations using the cycling test method which was carried out for 6 cycles. The results showed that all formulas were declared stable because there was no significant difference in the physical properties of the preparations against the stability test carried out on the clay mask preparation from basil leaf extract, and all formulas in each test were declared good because the results showed that they were within the required range
