Abstract

Burn wound is an injury that causes tissue damage, typically due to contact with a heat source. Fibroblasts have an important role in wound healing, synthesizing collagen as the main constituent of the extracellular matrix which is important in wound integrity. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of cream of melinjo (Gnetum gnemon L.)  leaf extract on the number of fibroblast cells in deep partial thickness burn in white rats (Rattus novegicus). Twenty male white rats (Rattus norvegicus) were divided into five treatment groups, with four replications in each group, and were induced with in deep partial thickness burn. The negative control group (K-) was treated with cream base, the positive control group (K+) was treated with Silver Sulfadiazine, while P1, P2, and P3 group was treated with respectively 2.5, 5 and 10% melinjo (Gnetum gnemon L.) leaf extract cream. Therapy was given twice a day for 14 days. Oneway ANOVA showed significant differences between each treatment group (p <0.05) and continued with the Duncan test. The average number of fibroblasts in each treatment group showed that the K- were significantly different from the K+, P2, P3 groups but not P1. The lowest mean number of fibroblast cells was found in the K- group. The conclusion from the research that has been carried out was that melinjo (Gnetum gnemon L) leaf extract cream decrease the number of fibroblast cells in second-degree burns wounds in white rats (Rattus norvegicus).

Abstract

Introduction: Self-medication is something that is often practiced by the Indonesian community as a way to take care of themselves when they are sick. Taking and consuming medication without advice from a healthcare professional, whether for diagnosis, prescription, or health supervision, is called self-medication. Self-medication can provide significant benefits to the government in maintaining national health if done correctly. Self-medication can assist healthcare professionals, reduce the time spent waiting for a doctor's diagnosis, and save money, especially in developing countries, because healthcare professionals will be more focused on more serious and critical health conditions. Objective: This study aims to determine mothers' knowledge about self-medication for fever and to understand the self-medication actions taken by mothers, as well as to examine the relationship between mothers' knowledge and their self-medication actions for fever in toddlers in Ketapang Dua Village, East Aceh. Method: This study uses a quantitative method of a descriptive-analytical nature with a cross-sectional design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. Data were analyzed using the Chi Square test. Data collection was conducted in July 2024. The research population is the knowledge of mothers regarding self-medication management for toddlers in Ketapang Dua Village, East Aceh. The sample of this study consists of 40 respondents. Results: from this study indicate that 35% of mothers have a fairly good level of knowledge about self-medication for fever. Self-medication for fever in toddlers shows that around 47.5% have taken appropriate actions. There is a significant relationship between maternal knowledge and self-medication actions for fever in toddlers in Ketapang Dua Village, East Aceh, with a p-value of 0.026 < 0.05. It can be concluded that the presence of maternal knowledge regarding self-medication for fever in toddlers in Ketapang Dua Village, East Aceh, is classified as quite good. The conclusion: of this study is that the frequency distribution of maternal knowledge shows that some have fairly good knowledge, with 14 respondents (35.0%) and respondents with less adequate knowledge amounting to 21 respondents (65.5%). The frequency distribution of fever self-medication actions shows that some mothers provided appropriate self-medication actions, with 19 respondents (47.5%) doing so, while 21 respondents (52.5%) provided less appropriate self-medication actions. There is a significant relationship between maternal knowledge and self-medication practices for fever in toddlers in Ketapang Dua village, East Aceh, with a p-value of 0.026 > 0.05.

Abstract

Introduction: Taro contains several compounds that can accelerate wound healing, such as flavonoids, phenols, and saponins. These compounds act as natural antibiotics, cleansing wounds with their antibacterial and antifungal properties. Therefore, this plant can aid in the wound healing process. Tannins, on the other hand, have the ability to constrict blood vessels and reduce bleeding in the wound area, decrease infection, and aid in wound healing during the inflammatory phase. One of the wound healing factors, vitamin C helps strengthen the walls of blood vessels, especially in the injured area, to maintain blood supply there and assist in accelerating collagen synthesis during the wound healing process. Lectin, a substance that can accelerate wound closure by aiding better cell regeneration. Arecaceae plants have many benefits for society, such as being used as a food source by harvesting their tubers, or being used as ornamental plants that beautify yards. Taro is also used as medicine both internally and externally. Almost all parts of the taro plant are processed into medicines, and the tubers, stem bark, and roots are crushed and then applied to the skin to heal wounds or bruises. Objective: This study aims to determine the wound healing effects of the sap from the taro stem (Colocasia esculenta L) Schott on male rats (Rattus norvegicus). Method: This study uses an experimental method, which includes sampling, preparation of taro leaf stem extract with concentrations of 2%, 4%, 6%, ointment evaluation test, and incision wound healing activity test on white rats grouped into 5 groups, each consisting of 3 rats. Statistical analysis includes one-way ANOVA to see if there is a significant difference between concentrations in the healing of incisional wounds in male white rats. Result: The research conducted shows that F1 (2% concentration) can heal the rats on the 10th day. F2 (4% concentration) the rats healed on the 8th day, F3 (6% concentration) the cut wounds healed on the 7th day, positive control (Betadine ointment) all rats healed on the 7th day. Conclusion: The extract of taro leaf stems (Colocasia esculenta L) Schoot can be formulated into an ointment preparation for the healing of incised wounds in male white rats (Rattus norvegicus), with the most effective concentration being 6% because it can heal incised wounds the fastest among the other concentrations.

Abstract

The immune system plays a critical role in defending the body against pathogens, and enhancing its activity through immunostimulants is essential for improving health. This study aims to evaluate the immunostimulatory potential of ethanol extract from green amaranth leaves (Amaranthus hybridus L.) in male white mice (Mus musculus). The ethanol extract green amaranth leaves was prepared from dried green amaranth leaves and tested for its effect on phagocytic activity using the carbon clearance method. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and steroids. The animals were divided into five groups: negative control (0.5% Na CMC), positive control (Stimuno Forte®), and three experimental groups receiving varying doses of the ethanol extract (125 mg/kg, 250 mg/kg, and 500 mg/kg body weight). The results indicated that the ethanol extract significantly enhanced phagocytic activity, with the most optimal effect observed at 125 mg/kg body weight. The stimulation index increased with higher doses, demonstrating the dose-dependent immunostimulatory effect. The study concludes that the ethanol extract of green amaranth leaves can serve as an effective natural immunostimulant, with the 125 mg/kg body weight dose being the most effective in enhancing immune function in male white mice. These findings suggest the potential of green amaranth as a therapeutic agent for immune-related disorders.

Abstract

Introduction: The kecombrang flower and roselle flower are known as sources of natural antioxidants and have the potential to be used as natural dyes in lip cream products. Both types of flowers contain compounds such as tannins, flavonoids, and saponins. The aims of study to analyze the effect of varying concentrations of ethanol extract from the kecombrang flower (Etlingera elatior (Jack) R. M. Sm.) and the roselle flower (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) on the color of lip cream formulations. The method of research was conducted through laboratory experiments that included sampling, extract preparation, product formulation, physical quality evaluation, and panelist preference testing. Data were analyzed descriptively by calculating the percentage of preference levels and presented in the form of tables and graphs. The results show that the preparation has a semi-solid texture, with colors ranging from light pink to dark pink in certain combinations, and a purplish pink for the 10% roselle extract formulation. The pH of the preparation is in the range of 5.1-5.4, without coarse grains, good spreadability, an average spread distance of 5.5 cm, an average adhesion time of 12.73 seconds, and no irritation. The cycling test indicates color instability, changing from light pink to dark brownish purple. Based on the hedonic test, formulation F5 has the highest preference level, which is 88.33%. The conclusion of this study is that the ethanol extract of kecombrang and rosella flowers produces a light pink lip cream that is suitable for formulation in lip cream preparations. The higher the concentration of the extract used, the darker the pink color produced, with a texture that tends to be more liquid and a decreasing pH.

Abstract

Corn (Zea mays L) is a food crop that is known and cultivated in developing countries. So far, corn cobs have not been widely used as a value-added product. Corn cobs have 35.5% crude fiber, 2.5% protein, 0.12% calcium, 0.04% phosphorus and the remaining 38.16% of other substances. Corn cobs, which are biomass, contain phenolic phytochemicals which are very likely to be used as active antioxidant ingredients. The choice of method for making tablets is adjusted to the characteristics of the active substance used. In this research, the method used in making metformin HCl tablets was wet granulation. Wet granulation is the process of adding liquid to a powder or powder mixture in a container equipped with stirring which will produce agglomeration or granules. The evaluation results of corn cob additive granules as a substitute for HPMC showed the results of the flow time test (F1 1.5 seconds, F2 1.4 seconds F3 1.63 seconds), F1 angle of repose test (34.96 o, F2 41, 43 o, F3 41.92 o), humidity test (F1 1.794 %, F2 1.999 %, F3 2.331 %) and compressibility test (F1 11 %, F2 15%, F3 8%).  The results of the evaluation of antalgin tablets using corn cobs as a substitute for HPMC showed visual test results where the tablets were round and white in color, the weight uniformity test showed results (F1 A (5%) 708.7-783.3 and column B (10% ) 671.4-820.6, F2 A (5%) 562.775– 705.75 and column B (10%) 571.05-698.6, F3 688.75– 761.25 and column B (10%) 625.5-797.5), size uniformity test shows results (F1 diameter 1.3545 and thickness 0.4705, F2 diameter 1.359 and thickness 0.468, F3 diameter 1.36 and thickness 0.471), fragility test shows results (F1 0 .06978367 %, F2 0.53272451 %, F3 0.06978367 %) and tablet hardness showed results (F1 6.764, F2 4.984, F3 7.89) and disintegration time test showed results (F1 2 minutes, F2 2 minutes, F3 2 minute).

Abstract

In general, fish have high omega-3 and omega-9 fatty acid content and are beneficial for health. This makes fish oil develop into a food supplement. Increasing the amount of free fatty acids in oil can potentially reduce the quality and damage of fish oil. Adsorbents have bleaching properties that can affect color changes in fish oil and fish oil content. This study aims to determine the effect of bentonite adsorbent treatment on the fatty acid profile of catfish oil and keting fish oil analyzed using the Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) method. Catfish oil (CFO) and Keting fish oil (KFO) samples were extracted without using organic solvents and then treated with bentonite as an adsorbent. The extracted oil was derivatized and then injected into the GC-MS instrument system. There were 29 types of fatty acids detected in each sample, namely 12 types of saturated fatty acids (SFA), 8 types of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), and 9 types of double unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). The effect of purification with bentonite was analyzed using One-way ANOVA from Minitab19 software showing that there were differences in the content of fatty acid profiles of CFO and KFO that were purified and not purified with bentonite, shown in each category of fatty acids SFA, MUFA and PUFA which had a p value <0.05.
