Abstract

Introduction: Citrus fruits can be processed into various types of preparations that are very useful. Sweet orange (Citrus X sinensis) is a type of orange that is consumed by squeezing it into a drink. So far, sweet orange peels (Citrus X sinensis) have not been fully utilized and become waste that is thrown away. Meanwhile, the peels of citrus fruits have useful content, so that the peels of citrus fruits can be processed into products that are useful for the community. Wet sweet orange peel is better to use than dried sweet orange peel. This is because the sweet orange peel contains essential oils which have not completely evaporated so that the oil can be taken directly. Method: This research is a laboratory-based experimental study. Results: From the analysis, it was found that the water content of sweet orange peel was 75.5%. The results of data analysis showed that the highest oil yield was obtained using the soxhletation method for 12 hours using 6.15% hexane as a solvent, 4.89% ethanol as a solvent, and 1.67% aquadest as a solvent. When compared to these three solvents, hexane solvent is more effective than ethanol and aquadest. It shows that in general the essential oil from lime peel produced is still within the range of essential oil quality standards based on ISO 3519:2005. Conclusion: In this study, the best solvent was hexane. The sweet orange peel essential oil produced has a greenish yellow color for hexane and aquadest solvents and yellowish green for ethanol solvents. The essential oil produced has a density of 0.8580 g/cm3.

Abstract

Introduction: Essential oil is also known as ethereal oil or flying oil (ethereal oil, volatile oil) produced by plants. The oil is volatile at room temperature without decomposition, has a bitter taste, smells good according to the smell of the plant that produces it, is generally soluble in organic solvents and insoluble in water. At high concentrations, essential oils can be used as local anesthetics, for example clove oil is used to treat toothaches, but can damage mucous membranes. Most essential oils also have strong antibacterial and antifungal properties. Methods: This research is a laboratory-based experimental study. Results: Based on the specific gravity test, the tested lemongrass oil has good quality because it meets the requirements of the Indonesian National Standard, namely the specific gravity must be in the range of 0.880 - 0.922. From the tests carried out twice (duplo) the results obtained were in that range with the value in the first Conclusion: The density of citronella oil is 0.8800 and the test sample meets the requirements of SNI. The solubility in ethanol of citronella oil is 1: 2 clear, the test sample meets the requirements of SNI.

Abstract

Hand sanitizer gel has been widely used as a way to maintain hand health and hygiene that is practical and easy to carry. Generally hand sanitizer gels contain alcohol compounds as antiseptics to kill bacteria, but the use of antiseptic gels that contain alcohol in the long term can cause irritation. Therefore, we need natural alternative materials that are friendly to the skin and do not irritate the skin, one of the plants that has antibacterial power is bay leaf (Syzygium polyanthum). The purpose of this study was to determine the formulation and physical properties of hand sanitizer gel from bay leaf extract (Syzygium polyanthum). This research is an experimental study with research data presented descriptively. The gel was made in three formulas with different carbopol concentrations, namely 0.2%, 0.5%, and 3% Na CMC. The evaluation of the physical properties of the gel included organoleptic, homogeneity, dispersibility, adhesion, and pH tests. The results of the evaluation showed that formula 1 (Na CMC 3%, ethanolic extract of bay leaf 12.5%) and formula 2 (carbopol 0.2%, ethanolic extract of bay leaf 12.5%) fulfilled all the requirements for evaluating the physical properties of the gel which included organoleptic test, homogeneity, spreadability, adhesion, and pH. While formula 3 (carbopol 0.8%, ethanol extract of bay leaf 25%) did not meet the physical properties test, namely the dispersion test.

Abstract

Hand sanitizers are widely used for practical reasons when there is no water. Hand sanitizer is easy to carry and can be used quickly without the use of water. According to the US FDA (Food and Drug Administration) the advantages of hand sanitizers are that they are able to kill germs in a relatively fast time. The use of antiseptic gels that contain alcohol can cause irritation so it is not safe to be used again, it is necessary to use antiseptics made from nature or containing natural ingredients that are safe when applied to the surface of the hands repeatedly. The purpose of this literature study is to determine the formulation of hand sanitizer gel and test the physical properties of various plant extracts based on a literature study. The method used in this research is a study of literature from 6 journals, both national journals indexed by sinta 1-4 and international journals indexed by Scopus related to the title of the proposed research, namely the study of the formulation literature and testing the physical properties of hand sanitizer gel preparations from oil Nutmeg Essentials, Noni leaf extract, Trembesi leaf extract, Bay leaf extract, Cucumber extract, Papaya leaf extract. In the study of making hand sanitizers from various extracts, it can be concluded that the hand sanitizer gel that was formulated met all the requirements for evaluating the physical properties of the gel which included organoleptic, homogeneity, and pH tests, while for dispersion and adhesion there were those that did not meet the standards.

Abstract

Facial cleansers generally have good cleaning power. Facial cleansing soap is also very necessary to keep facial skin clean and healthy. One of the natural ingredients that can help the cleaning process is guava leaf water. Guava leaf water contains several secondary metabolites, such as tannins, triterpenoids, glycosides and flavonoids. In addition, the selection of dosage forms also affects the cleaning power of a cleaning soap. Therefore, in this study, a cleaning soap was made from guava leaf water and a physical evaluation of the soap was carried out in accordance with the specifications and requirements specified. The principle of the saponification reaction is the reaction between oil and KOH/NaOH. The facial cleansing soap made in this study is solid soap. Based on the quality test results, solid leri soap has a pH of 10.3, the saponification rate is 32 water content 34 water content 34% and respondent tests on the aroma and foam aspects which show good enough results so that guava water treatment can be an alternative solution to prevent the use of water. Facial cleanser that contains harmful chemicals.
