Law number 42 of 2024 issued by government Indonesia concerning guanranteed halal products, that not all products in Indonesia are guaranteed to be halal. The regulation also states that Indonesia is obligade to provide protection and guarantees regarding halal status of product consume and used by the public. Cosmetic and herbal medicine are the products that musch used by the indonesian public. According to the survey, make-up and personal care ranked fourth (16.4%) as the most frequently purchased item by respondents when shopping online in 2022. In this current modern era, there has been shift in the way consumer purchase products. Purchases are No. longer made offline bu go to direct stores, instead buyers and sellers transact through digital platform (e-commerce) rather than meeting face to face. Before deciding to purchase a product, consumer have several consideration in choosing product, whether is jeeds, desires or whether is influenced by external factors. This study aims to determine whether consumer knowledge regarding halal labels on cosmetic and herbal medicine products influence purchasing decisions through e-commerce. The method used is quantitative descriptive, data collection through questionnaires. Data analysis used linear regression. The number of respondents was 100 people who had purchased cosmetic or herbal medicine products in online marketplaces domiciled in Surabaya. Data analysis shows that consumer knowledge regarding halal labels influences consumer purchasing decisions in online marketplaces, meaning that increasing consumer knowledge regarding halal labels will increase product purchases in online marketplaces.

Abstract

Forest honey is a natural product derived from the nectar of wild plants and is known to contain various bioactive compounds, such as flavonoids and phenolics, which contribute to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential. Buton Regency in Southeast Sulawesi is recognized as a producer of forest honey; however, scientific studies on its biological activities remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the free radical scavenging activity and anti-inflammatory effects of Buton forest honey through both in vitro and in vivo approaches. Antioxidant activity was assessed using DPPH and ABTS assays, while anti-inflammatory evaluation involved inhibition of BSA protein denaturation and a mouse ear edema model induced by xylene. The honey exhibited IC₅₀ values of 71.69 ± 2.73 mg/L (DPPH) and 49.23 ± 4.24 mg/L (ABTS). Its protein denaturation inhibition showed an IC₅₀ of 14.17 ± 3.18 mg/L. In vivo testing demonstrated that high-dose honey significantly reduced ear thickness in mice, with a percentage of inhibition comparable to diclofenac sodium. Statistical analysis revealed significant differences (p < 0.05) across most parameters. These findings indicate that Buton forest honey holds promise as a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent.

Abstract

ABSTRACT Foot odor is a prevalent issue resulting from excessive perspiration and bacterial proliferation in moist environments. This research aimed to optimize the formulation of a lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Miller.) essential oil foot spray gel by varying the concentration of Carbopol 940 as a gelling agent. In this laboratory-based experimental study, three formulations were developed containing 0.3%, 0.5%, and 0.7% Carbopol 940. Evaluations involved organoleptic assessment, homogeneity, pH measurement, viscosity testing, spreadability, adhesion, and stability evaluation through cycling tests. All formulations fell within the skin’s pH range (4.5–6.5) and demonstrated good homogeneity. Findings indicated that higher Carbopol 940 concentrations increased viscosity while reducing spreadability. The 0.5% Carbopol 940 formulation provided the optimal balance between viscosity, spreadability, and physical stability. Cycling test results confirmed that this formulation remained stable without notable changes in physical characteristics. It is concluded that the optimal lavender essential oil foot spray gel formulation was achieved at a Carbopol 940 concentration of 0.5%. Keywords: Carbopol 940, foot spray gel, lavender, essential oil
