Abstract

Soka flower extract (Ixora coccinea L.) is a very powerful source of natural antioxidants. Soka flower extract is formulated as a lip balm to utilize its potential as an antioxidant that can protect the lips. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in the concentration of beeswax and paraffin wax bases on the physical properties of soka flower extract lip balm preparations and to obtain the best component variations. Soka flowers were extracted using maceration extraction using 96% ethanol. The lip balm preparations were made in 3 formulas with variations in the concentration of beeswax and paraffin wax bases, namely FI (5%:15%), FII (7.5%:12.5%), and FIII (10%:10%). The lip balm was evaluated for physical properties such as organoleptic tests, homogeneity tests, pH tests, spreadability tests, smearability tests, adhesion tests, irritation tests, and moisture tests. Data analysis was carried out using the One Way ANOVA method. Based on the results of the study, it was shown that variations in the concentration of beeswax and paraffin wax bases affected the physical properties of the preparations, including pH, adhesiveness, spreadability, and viscosity. In this study, FII (7.5% beeswax and 12.5% paraffin wax) was determined as the best formula for the soka flower extract lip balm preparation, based on consideration of the requirements and statistical tests.

Abstract

Tuberculosis (TB) remains a health challenge in Indonesia. Its treatment is lengthy and requires discipline, making medication adherence crucial. One way to improve adherence is through the involvement of Medication Supervisors (PMO) during treatment. To examine the relationship between the role of PMO and the level of medication adherence among pulmonary TB patients at Puskesmas Sukarahayu. This study used a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional design and purposive sampling, involving 135 TB patients. Data were collected via questionnaires on the role of PMO and MMAS-8, then analyzed using Spearman's Rank test. The study showed that the majority of respondents had PMOs who played a supportive role (94.8%), and most respondents were adherent to their medication (63.7%). The statistical analysis indicated a significant relationship between the role of PMO and medication adherence (p = 0.000) with a correlation coefficient r = 0.638, indicating a strong and positive relationship. The better the PMO role, the higher the adherence of TB patients to treatment. Improving the quality and engagement of PMOs is an effective strategy to reduce dropout rates, prevent resistance (DR-TB), and accelerate recovery. This confirms the importance of training and support for PMOs in TB control programs.

Abstract

Hypertension remains a significant global health burden and is closely linked to cardiovascular morbidity. Emerging evidence suggests that gut microbiota plays an essential role in modulating blood pressure, particularly through the use of probiotics and prebiotics. This study investigated the relationship between the frequency of probiotic consumption and blood pressure control in patients with essential hypertension. A total of 100 hypertensive adults participated in this cross-sectional study, and data were collected through structured interviews, food frequency questionnaires, and blood pressure assessments. Statistical analyses included Chi-square and Spearman correlation tests. The results demonstrated a significant association between higher frequency of probiotic intake and better blood pressure control (p = 0.008), with a moderate negative correlation (r = –0.45) observed between intake duration and systolic blood pressure. Additionally, individuals who consumed both probiotics and prebiotic-rich foods exhibited enhanced blood pressure improvement. These findings support the potential of probiotic-prebiotic synergy in modulating gut microbiota to regulate blood pressure. The incorporation of prebiotics is essential, as they serve as substrates that stimulate the growth and activity of beneficial bacteria, thereby optimizing the efficacy of probiotic supplementation. The study highlights the practical implications of dietary interventions targeting the gut environment as a complementary strategy in hypertension management.

Abstract

Perkembangan polusi dan gaya hidup modern dapat meningkatkan produksi radikal bebas dalam tubuh. Jika tidak dikendalikan, jumlah radikal bebas yang berlebihan dapat menurunkan kualitas hidup, memicu berbagai gangguan kesehatan, dan bahkan menyebabkan kematian. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan antioksidan alami untuk melindungi tubuh. Antioksidan alami cenderung lebih aman dibandingkan antioksidan sintetik. bawang dayak (Eleutherine americana) sebagai tanaman obat tradisional memiliki potensi sebagai sumber antioksidan. Pemanfaatan bawang dayak masih secara tradisional mengambil sari umbinya dengan cara merebus dan meminum air rebusannya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membandingkan efektivitas antioksidan ekstrak umbi bawang dayak (Eleutherine americana) yang dihasilkan dari dua teknik ekstraksi yaitu infusa dan maserasi. Metode penelitian ini merupakan eksperimen yang menguji efektivitas antioksidan dari infusa dan maserasi umbi bawang dayak (Eleutherine americana). Pengujian dilakukan menggunakan metode DPPH dan Spektrofotometri UV-Vis. Hasil penelitian diperoleh ekstrak umbi bawang dayak (Eleutherine americana) dari maserasi memiliki efektivitas antioksidan yang sangat kuat (IC50 47.85 ppm). Angka ini jauh lebih baik daripada infusa (IC50 110.65 ppm) yang hanya memiliki kategori sedang. Meskipun masih di bawah vitamin C (IC50 7.49 ppm). Dapat disimpulkan bahwa maserasi umbi bawang Dayak (Eleutherine americana) terbukti memiliki efektivitas antioksidan yang lebih tinggi dibanding infusanya. Namun, daya antioksidan dari kedua sampel umbi bawang dayak (Eleutherine americana) tersebut masih lebih rendah jika dibandingkan dengan vitamin C.

Abstract

Caesalpinia bonduc (L.) Roxb is known to contain various secondary metabolites with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Differences in solvent polarity influence the types of compounds extracted; therefore, functional group profiling is essential to identify active constituents. This study aimed to compare the FTIR-ATR spectral profiles of C. bonduc stem extracts obtained using three solvents of different polarities: ethanol, ethyl acetate, and n-hexane. Extraction was carried out by maceration, and characterization was performed using a Bruker Alpha II FTIR spectrophotometer within the 4000–400 cm⁻¹ range. The ethanol extract exhibited strong absorption at 3430 cm⁻¹ (–OH) and 1635 cm⁻¹ (C=O), indicating polar compounds such as flavonoids and phenolics. The ethyl acetate extract showed distinctive bands at 1740 cm⁻¹ (C=O ester), while the n-hexane extract displayed peaks at 2922–2858 cm⁻¹ (C–H), associated with non-polar compounds such as fatty acids and terpenoids. Variations in absorption bands among the three extracts confirm that solvent polarity significantly affects the extracted chemical composition. The FTIR-ATR technique proved effective for rapid and non-destructive characterization of bioactive compounds in medicinal plant extracts.

Abstract

Captopril is a drug in the Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitor (ACE Inhibitor) class that is widely used in the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. Given its widespread use, the availability of reliable and validated analytical methods is crucial to ensure the quality, safety, and efficacy of pharmaceutical preparations containing captopril. Captopril analytical methods have been reported using various techniques, such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. However, before these methods are routinely used in the BPOM laboratory in Bengkulu, a method verification process is required to ensure that the adopted method meets analytical performance requirements under the conditions and equipment used.. The aim of this study was to verify the analysis method of Captopril in tablet preparations using HPLC with a PDA detector at the BPOM Bengkulu Laboratory. Verification was carried out using HPLC with a PDA detector at a wavelength of 220 nm, a 25 cm x 4.6 mm L1 column with a particle size of 5 um, using a mobile phase mixture of methanol; water; phosphoric acid (550; 450; 0.4) and a flow rate of 1 ml / minute in accordance with the Indonesian Pharmacopoeia edition VI. Verification results showed that the standard solution was detected at a retention time of approximately 4 minutes. In the specificity test, the Captopril standard and the tested sample produced peaks at identical retention times and spectra. The precision test provided a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.10%, the linearity test provided a correlation coefficient value of r = 0.9991, the accuracy test (recovery) at levels of 80%, 100% and 120% produced an average recovery of 97.55% with an acceptance range of 95% - 105%. In general, it can be concluded that the results of the verification of the analytical method for determining the levels of Captopril in tablet preparations meet the requirements and can be used in routine sample testing in the Laboratory.
