Abstract

Indonesia has a variety of plants that are useful as medicine. One is the Tea Mistletoe plant (Scurrula oortiana Dans.). This plant contains flavonoid compounds that are effective as antioxidants, especially in the form of quercetin. Quercetin in the tea mistletoe plant can prevent cell damage caused by free radicals, where cells need this antioxidant to avoid the harmful effects of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and prevent damage to immune cells. This study aims to analyze the levels of quercetin in Tea Mistletoe extract using quantitative analysis methods such as thin-layer chromatography and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Tea Mistletoe powder was extracted by maceration with 96% ethanol solvent and then concentrated using a rotary evaporator and water bath. The thick extract obtained was then tested for phytochemical screening and specific and non-specific parameters. Analysis of flavonoid quercetin compounds was carried out using a thin layer chromatography method using a mobile phase of a mixture of chloroform, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol with a ratio of 5:4:1 and a stationary phase of Silica Gel GF₂₅₄. Determination of flavonoid levels was carried out using UV-Vis spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 428 nm. The results of this study indicate that the Mistletoe Tea plant contains flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, tannins, saponins, phenolics, and glycosides. All test parameters meet the specified requirements. The thin layer chromatography test showed the Rf value of the Mistletoe Tea extract of 0.78. The linearity test showed a correlation value (r) = 0.9988 with a total flavonoid compound content of 372.250 mg QE/g extract, or a percentage of 37.225%.

Abstract

Hyperglycemia caused by abnormalities in insulin secretion and insulin function is a hallmark of a metabolic disorder known as diabetes mellitus (DM). The choice of alternative medications for DM varies significantly, making it essential to consider cost to ensure that the selected drug remains affordable while providing the best therapeutic effect. The purpose of this study is to examine the glucose-lowering profile and identify the most cost-effective antidiabetic drug for use in type 2 diabetes patients in the outpatient unit at RSUD R. Syamsudin, SH. Kota Sukabumi. This non-experimental study uses a descriptive design by reviewing the medical records of outpatients from the pharmacy department. Random blood glucose levels and medication costs are the parameters used. The results of the study showed that the use of the antidiabetic drug glimepiride, which is the most cost-effective drug for type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, demonstrated an average blood glucose reduction of 26.92% for patients using metformin and 22.97% for patients using glimepiride.

Abstract

Karas tulang plant (Chloranthus erectus) is a medicinal plant that has been used in several areas such as China and Southeast Asia. There has been no research regarding the potential of bone karas leaves as an antidiabetic through inhibiting the α-glucosidase enzyme from the ethanol extract of bone karas leaves. Inhibition of the α-glucosidase enzyme can work due to the presence of phytochemical compounds, such as flavonoids, saponins, tannins and quinones. This is because the phytochemical compounds contained therein can act as antidiabetic agents to prevent hyperglycemia in diabetes sufferers. This research aims to identify chemical compounds and the activity of the α-glucosidase enzyme in the ethanol extract of leaves contained in karas bone leaves. The thin layer chromatography method was used to screen phytochemical chemicals for alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins and tannins. The ELISA reader 405 nm method was used to test the inhibition of the α-glucosidase enzyme. The substrate used was p-NPG while the comparison used was acarbose tablets. The results of this research were that the IC50 value for the extract was 30.541 ????g/mL while for acarbose it was 3.873 ????g/mL. From these results it can be concluded that the inhibitory power of the α-glucosidase enzyme is in the active category, while that of acarbose is in the very active category.

Abstract

Empirically, turmeric tamarind is used to relieve pain and inflammation and ease menstrual cramps. However, conventional herbal preparations are currently less popular, especially among teenagers. Effervescent turmeric tamarind formulations are an innovative, practical pharmaceutical preparation with the advantage of a pleasant taste, which helps disguise the bitter flavor of turmeric. This product also provides a refreshing effect due to the acid-base reaction that produces carbon dioxide (CO2). This study aims to evaluate the physical test of effervescent turmeric tamarind granules. This experimental study formulates three turmeric-tamarind effervescent granule formulas by varying the turmeric extract dosage (Curcuma longa) to 250 mg, 500 mg, and 750 mg. The evaluations performed include organoleptic tests, water content, flow properties and angle of repose, dissolving time, and pH testing. The results showed that turmeric extract (Curcuma longa) and tamarind (Tamarindus indica) can be formulated into effervescent granules—the three formulas with different variations of turmeric extract produced good physical quality test results. Variations in the concentration of turmeric extract did not affect the physical quality of the granules.

Abstract

Dental caries is a common oral health problem among the Indonesian population, and its primary cause is the bacterium Streptococcus mutans. The peel of the Kasturi orange (Citrus microcarpa) fruit has been known to contain antibacterial properties, which may help prevent the occurrence of dental caries. This study aims to evaluate the toothpaste formulation with the active ingredient of nano-extract from kasturi orange peel (Citrus microcarpa). The extract of Kasturi orange peel was obtained through a maceration method, followed by phytochemical screening that identified the presence of flavonoids, steroids, alkaloids, saponins, glycosides, and essential oils. The extract was then processed into a nano-extract, and its particle size was measured using a Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) with a dynamic light scattering technique. The nano-extract was formulated into toothpaste at concentrations of 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5%, and its antibacterial activity was tested. Physical evaluations showed that the toothpaste maintained its shape, color, odor, and taste during storage, was homogeneous, had a pH within the acceptable range (4.5–10.5), viscosity within the required range (20,000–50,000 cps), and passed organoleptic testing (color, aroma, taste, and texture) on respondents.

Abstract

Soybean tempeh products are in great demand by most Indonesian people. The most of producers use plastic as packaging material, but some of them use natural materials such as banana leaves and teak. Soybean tempeh packaged with leaves is more popular with the public than plastic because it has a distinctive aroma and a savory taste. This study aims to determine the differences in protein content in soybean tempeh with different primary packaging materials with raw soybeans as a comparison. The three tempeh packages were produced using raw soybeans and under the same conditions. The protein content of the samples was determined by the Lowry reaction at a wavelength of 748.5 nm. This method has been determined for its validity through repeatability, linearity, and accuracy tests. Together with raw soybeans, samples that had been stored in the freezer were measured for their protein content at two different times. The Lowry method used is valid because all parameters have met the acceptance requirements where r2 linearity = 0.9954-0.9972 (> 0.9950); %RSD repeatability = 0.291-0.768 (<2%); and %recovery accuracy = 98.769-101.118% (80-120%). The average results of the protein content of raw soybeans, plastic-packaged soybean tempeh, banana leaves, and teak leaves on the 11th day were 5.531-7.967% while on the 35th day it was 5.881-7.972%. The results of the One-Way ANOVA statistical test with sig = 0.0001 (p <0.05) so it can be said that there is a significant difference between soybean tempeh with different primary packaging materials.
