Abstract

Hyperlipidemia can be treated with medication. However, the large side effects cause people to return to herbal medicine. Sungsang fig leaves contain flavonoid, tannin and saponin compounds that can reduce cholesterol levels. The stages of the procedure carried out are making simplisia, followed by cold extraction, namely maceration with ethanol p.a solvent as the solvent of choice. Furthermore, phytochemical screening of sungsang fig leaf extract and simplisia characterization studies were carried out. After that, anti-hyperlipidemia activity was tested in vivo using male white mice to determine the effect of reducing blood cholesterol levels with ethanol extract of sungsang fig leaves. The result of the decrease in cholesterol levels in white male mice from ethanol extract of sungsang fig leaves at a dose of 500 mg/kg BW was 41%. These results are 1.20 times greater than the dose of 125 mg/kg BW and 1.17 times greater than the dose of 250 mg/kg BW. Synergistic compounds to reduce cholesterol levels are flavonoids, tannins and saponins. The decrease in cholesterol levels from ethanol extract of sungsang fig leaves at a dose of 500 mg/kg BW is not significantly different from simvastatin 10 mg.

Abstract

Bananas are rich in nutrients, particularly vitamin C, starch, sugar, fiber, and serve as an affordable source of vitamins, minerals, and energy for the community. The mineral content in fresh bananas includes zinc, selenium, phosphorus, manganese, iron, copper, and calcium. Consuming bananas for magnesium intake is particularly important. A single fresh banana contains 27 mg of magnesium. This study was conducted in the laboratory of the Faculty of Pharmacy using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) method, which is relatively fast and capable of measuring metal concentrations at low and specific levels for each element without requiring separation. The analysis results of potassium and magnesium in Ambon Bananas, Banten Bananas, Barangan Bananas, Kepok Bananas, Lilin Bananas, Mas Bananas, Raja Bananas, and Horn Bananas showed potassium levels of (367.1354 ± 1.4227) mg/100g; (412.7505 ± 0.9358) mg/100g; (386.6516 ± 0.6478) mg/100g; (413.2283 ± 0.6933) mg/100g; (405.5700 ± 0.7744) mg/100g; (417.1851 ± 0.5417) mg/100g; (374.8651 ± 0.6505) mg/100g; and (340.4262 ± 0.7292) mg/100g, respectively. The magnesium levels were found to be (44.2010 ± 0.1073) mg/100g; (57.9526 ± 0.0986) mg/100g; (45.9309 ± 0.0907) mg/100g; (82.8869 ± 0.2170) mg/100g; (79.2840 ± 0.0987) mg/100g; (59.1938 ± 0.0792) mg/100g; (76.8133 ± 0.0939) mg/100g; and (55.1193 ± 0.0734) mg/100g, respectively. The high potassium and magnesium levels found in this quantitative analysis indicate that bananas are highly beneficial for individuals with hypertension.

Abstract

This study aimed to develop a formulation of mango fruit juice (Mangifera indica L.) as a moisturizing agent in the form of hand cream. The main component of mango, sucrose, has the ability to attract moisture from the air due to its hydroxyl groups, which helps reduce water evaporation from the skin. Mango juice was obtained by blending the mango pulp using a juicer, followed by the addition of 0.1% sodium metabisulfite as an antioxidant. The extract was then concentrated using a freeze-drying technique at -40°C and 2 atm pressure. The cream formulation developed was an oil-in-water (m/a) emulsion type, with mango fruit juice concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%. These were compared to cream containing 2% glycerin and a blank formulation. Various tests were conducted to evaluate the physical quality of the cream, including homogeneity, pH, stability, emulsion type, and irritation tests using a moisture-checker. The results showed that mango fruit juice was successfully formulated into a homogeneous m/a cream, with a pH ranging from 5.55 to 7.04, and remained stable for up to 12 weeks of storage. The cream formulated with mango juice was proven to increase skin moisture without causing irritation. The higher the concentration of mango fruit juice, the greater the moisturizing effect. The 2.5% concentration provided a moisturizing effect comparable to cream containing 2% glycerin. The best moisturizing effect was achieved at a 10% concentration, which increased skin moisture by up to 14.4% after 4 weeks of use. This mango juice is effectively used in m/a type creams as a skin moisturizer. Keyword: Mango fruit juice, cream, skin moisturizer

Abstract

Pathogenic fungi are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases in humans and are capable of growing and developing in various environments. The types of fungi that most often cause skin infections are Candida albicans and Pityrosporum ovale. The soka flower plant (Ixora chinensis Lam.), commonly found in Indonesia, is known to have antibacterial properties. The antifungal strength of the soka flower comes from the natural chemicals in its ethanol extract, which stops the growth of Candida albicans and Pityrosporum ovale. The research method was conducted experimentally, which included stages such as the preparation of dry powder, characterization of dry powder, phytochemical screening both on dry powder and the ethanol extract of soka flowers, preparation of the ethanol extract, standardization of the extract, and evaluation of the antifungal activity of the ethanol extract against both types of fungi. The research results indicate that the minimum inhibitory concentration of the ethanol extract of the soka flower against Candida albicans is 5.5 mg/ml with an inhibition zone diameter of 8.8 mm ±0.05, while for Pityrosporum ovale, the minimum inhibitory concentration is 50 mg/ml with an inhibition zone diameter of 10.7 mm ±0.50. The statistical analysis from Kruskal-Wallis tests show a significant difference in the amounts of ethanol extract from soka flowers based on the size of the inhibition zones for Candida albicans and Pityrosporum ovale, with probabilities of 0.000 and 0.001, both of which are below 0.05.

Abstract

Tuberculosis is the 9th leading cause of death in the world, but it takes at least 6 months to be treated. One of the challenges in tuberculosis treatment is that the treatment time is quite long, and the drugs used are also quite a lot so that it affects patient adherence in taking medication. The objective of this study was to see the effectiveness of video calls in enhancing the adherence of tuberculosis patients. The research method used was experimental pre-post noncontrol design. This study involved 12 tuberculosis patients from the Kepulungan Community Health Centre who were enrolled in the Pulmonary Tuberculosis Control Programme (Program Penanggulangan Tuberkulosis Paru/P2TB) and who met the study's inclusion and exclusion criteria. In the study, video call treatment was the independent variable while adherence was the dependent variable. The sample collection used total sampling and statistical analysis using Wilcoxon test. The findings of this investigation suggest that there is a substantial discrepancy in compliance levels between the pre- and post-video call treatment phases, as evidenced by the augmentation in the mean TB-MAS score from 102.5 to 113.6, accompanied by a p-value of 0.018 (<0.05). This shows that video calls are useful in improving patient adherence in taking antituberculosis drugs.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of cassava tuber processing on Candida albicans growth on Manihot Dextrose Agar (MDA). The sliced cassava tubers were divided into three groups. G1 was milled and dried in an oven at 60°C. G2 was directly dried in the oven. G3 was milled without drying. Each group was soaked in distilled water (1,000 mL) for 15 min and filtered with a flannel cloth. The filtrate was oven-dried, then pulverized to obtain the cassava powder. The powder (8 g) was combined with dextrose (20 g) and agar (15 g). The mixture was suspended in distilled water (1,000 mL), boiled, and sterilized at 121°C for 15 min. The solution was placed into a petri dish and allowed to form agar media. The media derived from G1, G2, and G3 were considered as F1, F2, and F3. A suspension of C. albicans was cultured on the media and incubated for 48 h. The fungal growth was observed by calculating the viable colonies. The data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA and followed by Duncan’s test at the confidence level of 95%. The results showed that C. albicans grown on media F1, F2, and F3 had colony numbers of 128±2.08 x 105 cfu/mL, 64±5.57 x 105 cfu/mL, and 44±3.51 x 105 cfu/mL, respectively. Statistical analysis indicated a significant difference in the fungal growth on the three media (p < 0.05). This study proved that the processing methods of cassava tubers for MDA significantly affected the growth of C. albicans.
