Abstract

Acne vulgaris is a prevalent skin condition that is characterized by inflammatory lesions. Propionibacterium acnes is a key bacterium implicated in its pathogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial potential of Carica papaya leaf extract against P. acnes and its efficacy when formulated into acne patches. Ethanolic extracts of C. papaya leaves were prepared at concentrations of 20%, 25%, and 30%. These extracts were incorporated into acne patch formulations and evaluated for antibacterial activity using the paper disc diffusion method. Clindamycin 1% was used as a positive control and 70% ethanol was used as a negative control. The results demonstrated that all concentrations of the C. papaya leaf extract exhibited significant antibacterial activity against P. acnes. The 30% concentration demonstrated the largest zone of inhibition, which was comparable to that of the positive control. These findings suggest that C. papaya leaf extract-based acne patches are promising natural alternatives for the treatment of acne vulgaris.

Abstract

Pharmaceutical services include drug dispensing activities, including drug compounding. Drug compounding is the process of mixing or changing ingredients to produce drugs that suit patient needs. Unmonitored storage conditions for compounded drugs in the community can affect the evaluation of the physical, chemical, and microbial contamination stability. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of storage temperature on the results of the evaluation of microbial contamination in compounding syrup pharmaceuticals, so it can provide education to the public about the storage patterns that have been carried out so far. Evaluation of microbial contamination in this study included contamination of the Total Yeast and  Mold Count (TYMC) and Total Plate Count (TPC). The objective of this study was a mixture of Erdostein syrup and cetirizine tablets. The research materials used for the microbial contamination test were mineral water, sterile water, Plate Count Agar (PCA) media, and Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA). The results of the study in the form of TYMC and TPC on day 0 were 0 cfu/mL. After 7 days of storage, microorganisms, namely TYMC, grew at room temperature (<30°C) 4.98x102 cfu/mL and cold temperature (2-8°C) 2.2x102 cfu/mL. The TPC results at room temperature storage (<30°C) were 8.33x102 cfu/mL and at cold temperatures (2-8°C) were 3.67x102 cfu/mL ...

Abstract

The fungi are sponge symbionts.  The fungus Penicillium nalgiovense acc MK087096  is a symbiont of the sponge Gelliodes fibulata. This symbiont has antibacterial activity, which supports the development of sponge-based drugs that are as effective as antibiotics. However, the primary challenge in developing marine resource-based medicine is the availability and sustainability of sponge raw materials. Fermentation biotechnology using sponge symbiont fumgi is an effective solution to address these challenges, as it allows the production of bioactive secondary metabolite compounds in large quantities, which can be used as raw materials for pharmaceutical preparation. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal medium and fermentation duration for producing secondary metabolites with antibiotic properties from the symbiotic fungus Penicillium nalgiovense, isolated from the sponge Gelliodes fibulata. This study was conducted naturally. The symbiotic fungus from the sponge Gelliodes fibulata was cultivated to facilitate growth. Fermentation was conducted with variations in secondary metabolite harvesting times of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 days.  Secondary metabolites were obstained using liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate. The optimal medium and fermentation time were determined based on the yield percentage for each medium across the six time variations. The fermentation biotechnology of the symbiotic fungus Penicillium nalgiovense acc MK087096 from the spone Gelliodes fibulata was carried out on SDB, PDB, also coconut flake-enriched PDB media.  The results showed the growth of the fungus and the production of bioactive secondary metabolites with antibiotic properties ...

Abstract

Antioxidants can be given to the skin through cosmetics such as face toners. One source of antioxidants is obtained through the fermentation of butterfly pea flower kombucha (Clitoria ternatea L.), which has been proven to have better antioxidant activity than butterfly pea flower extract alone. This study aimed to determine the metabolite compounds in butterfly pea flower kombucha and create a facial toner formulation with good antioxidant activity. The butterfly pea flower kombucha was fermented for 6 days at room temperature. Facial toners were made with concentrations of 5%, 7,5% and 10%. Evaluation of the face toner includes organoleptic, homogeneity, pH, specific gravity, and viscosity tests. The antioxidant activity test used the DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-pycrilhydrazil) method, with vitamin C as a positive control. The results showed that there were alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, and terpenoid compounds in butterfly pea flower kombucha. Face toners with concentrations of 5%, 7.5%, and 10% could be prepared and met all evaluations (organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, specific gravity, and viscosity). Antioxidant test results on formula 1 IC50 50,21±SD 0,01 (strong), formula 2 IC50 44,32±SD 0,02 (very strong) and formula 3 IC50 38,62±SD 0,03 (very strong). The higher the concentration of butterfly pea flower kombucha, the higher the antioxidant activity. Butterfly pea flower kombucha (Clitoria ternatea L.) which is formulated as a face toner preparation has strong to very strong antioxidants, and the increasing concentration of active ingredients had an effect on antioxidant activity.  Keywords: face toner, butterfly pea flower kombucha, DPPH method, antioxidant activity

Abstract

Solubility is an important physicochemical property of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Poor water solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients leads to low bioavailability; therefore, efforts are needed to improve the solubility of active pharmaceutical ingredients. The goal of this study was to prepare and characterize novel multicomponent crystals of fenofibric acid (FA) using acid acetylsalicylic (ACE) as a coformer and to evaluate the solubility enhancement when prepared for multicomponent crystal formation.  Solid characterization of the novel multicomponent crystals was performed using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning diffraction (DSC), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), polarized microscopy, and solubility tests. Multicomponent crystals were prepared by the solvent drop grinding method using a few drops of an ethanol pro analyzer. The results showed that the solubility of multicomponent crystalline fenofibric acid was 4.7 times greater than that of pure fenofibric acid. Differential Scanning Calorimetry characterization results show the novel multicomponent crystals  with a sharp endothermic peak at 136,65 oC. The PXRD diffractograms show no new diffraction peaks and a decrease  in intensity. FT-IR spectroscopic analysis showed no new functional groups, and most of the transmittance peaks of the multicomponent crystals were superimposed between the peaks of fenofibric acid and acetylsalicylic acid. The novel multicomponent crystals fenofibric acid with acetylsalicylic acid as a coformer can improve the solubility of fenofibric acid  Keywords: Acetylsalicylic acid ; Fenofibric acid ; Multicomponent crystals ; Solubility

Abstract

Infectious diseases remain a major issue in tropical countries such as Indonesia. Infectious diseases can be caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi. Development of antibacterial agents from natural sources is essential to combat the growing issue of antibiotic resistance. One potential plant is black cumin seed (Nigella sativa L.) contains thymoquinone, a compound known for its antibacterial properties. In addition to thymoquinone, the essential oil of black cumin contains thymol, carvacrol, and p-cymene, along with metabolites such as alkaloids, saponins, and tannins. This study aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity of black cumin seed oil (Nigella sativa L.) against Extended Spectrum ?-lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli ESBL). The antibacterial test in this study used the disc diffusion method at various concentrations, including 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25%. The extract was obtained by distillation, using pure water as the solvent. The test groups included a negative control, positive control using chloramphenicol, and negative control using pure water. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that the positive control produced an average inhibition zone of 25 mm, classified as susceptible, whereas the negative control showed no inhibition zone (0 mm). At 100% concentration, the inhibition zone averaged 18,67 mm, at 75% it averaged 16 mm, at 50% it averaged 11,67 mm, and at 25%, the inhibition zone averaged 6,67 mm. The three lower concentrations were categorized as resistant.
