Abstract

Transdermal drug delivery systems offer a non-invasive method for drug penetration through the skin but face significant challenges, especially in the stratum corneum layer, which inhibits drug penetration. Transfersome, an elastic vesicle developed from one of the nanocarriers, liposomes, has proven effective in increasing transdermal drug penetration. To examine manufacturing methods, evaluate potential safety aspects, and apply transfersomes to increase transdermal penetration of active ingredients. The results of the article search showed that transfersomes have advantages in terms of adsorption efficiency, elasticity, and the ability to carry drugs with various vesicle sizes. Several transfersome manufacturing methods have been developed, such as thin-film hydration, reverse evaporation, high-level homogenization, sonication, and ethanol injection, each with advantages and disadvantages. The thin-film hydration method is often used in research because it results in high adsorption efficiency, superior penetration ability, and good compatibility. Transfersomes have proven to be effective elastic vesicle delivery systems with phospholipids and surfactants. In transdermal applications, transfersome successfully improve the penetration and therapeutic effectiveness of antioxidant, anticancer, corticosteroid, and anti-inflammatory drugs, in the context of increasing drug penetration and therapeutic effectiveness. Transfersomes are promising drug delivery systems for transdermal applications, offering increased penetration, bioavailability, and therapeutic effectiveness. Appropriate formulation methods and in-depth characterization are needed to optimize the therapeutic potential of transfersomes for various medical applications. Keywords: Transfersomes, transdermal delivery, lipid vesicles, entrapment efficiency, vesicle deformability, transfersome manufacturing method.

Abstract

Drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is a public health problem that poses major challenges to patients, health workers, society, and the health care system. This research is a qualitative study to explore the implementation of drug side-effect monitoring and the role of health workers in handling side-effect monitoring medication for tuberculosis patients. We collected data through Focus Group Discussions (FGD) and conducted direct, in-depth interviews. The informants in this study were doctors, pharmacists, and nurses who were directly involved in treating drug-resistant tuberculosis patients. Two drug-resistant TB referral hospitals in the Cirebon area hosted the research. INVIVO 12 was used for qualitative analysis. Both hospitals still need to optimise the mechanism for tracking drug side effects in drug-resistant TB patients in accordance with the technical guidelines. Doctors at both hospitals play a significant role in implementation compared to other health workers. The similar role of doctors in both hospitals in implementation is in initial examination and history taking, determining causality, management, and education regarding drug side effects. Pharmacists have a similar role in managing drug side effects and documenting "unwanted events". The role of nurses in both hospitals is similar, namely providing patients with education on drug side effects. Efforts are needed to increase the implementation of monitoring of drug side effects by conducting assessments of the causality of drug side effects and documentation using specific instruments according to standards, ensuring the ensuring the completeness of manual monitoring forms, and providing continuous drug side effect monitoring training for health workers.

Abstract

Fucoidan is a sulfate polysaccharide compound that is widespread in the sea, especially in brown algae. Previous fucoidan pharmacokinetics studies have shown that fucoidan nanoparticles have the effect of increasing the immunomodulatory ability of fucoidan, but fucoidan consumed orally has a half-life in plasma of about 3 hours so that to reduce the amount of fucoidan supplement use in a day, fucoidan can be formulated into sustained release tablet preparations. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal composition of Na. Alginate and HPMC as polymers in sustained-release tablet preparations containing purified fucoidan from brown seaweed to produce tablets with characteristics that meet the compendial requirements of the Indonesian Pharmacopoeia and can maintain fucoidan release in plasma with only one consumption per day to improve user compliance. Fucoidan extraction from brown seaweed was carried out using hot extraction. Purified fucoidan tablets were prepared by the Simplex Lattice Design method using Design Expert version 10.1. The concentration of Na. Alginate and HPMC used as much as 2–5% with 8 formulas, which were then printed on a tablet printing tool. The optimum formula was tested as an immunomodulator in mice with parameters for lymph weight, phagocytosis index, and stimulant index. Optimum formula for Na. alginate: HPMC (3.252:3.748%) with flow speed 8.552 g/sec, compressibility 15,648%, hardness 3.726 kg, friability 0.044%, MC 3.296, Crushing time 21.34 minutes, Q15 34.608%, Q45 34.824%. The optimum formula for the immunomodulatory effect had a significant effect on the lymph weight of mice.

Abstract

Taro plant (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is empirically known to have anti-inflammatory activity. Taro leaves contain secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, saponins, tannins, flavonoids, and polyphenols. This study aimed to prove the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of ethanol extract of taro leaves (EETL), ethyl acetate fraction (EAFTL), and residual fraction (RFTL) in rats induced by 1% egg white solution, and to identify the chemical compound groups contained in EETL and its fractions. Thirty-two rats were divided into eight groups, namely group I as a negative control (CMC-Na 0.5%), group II as a positive control (Diclofenac sodium 4.5 mg/kgBW), groups III-IV were administered EETL 100 and 200 mg/kgBW, groups V-VI were administered EAFTL 100 and 200 mg/kgBW, and groups VII-VIII were administered RFTL 100 and 200 mg/kgBW. The animal models were induced with 0.1 mL of 1% egg white solution subplantar 1 hour after oral treatment. The volume of rat leg edema was measured every 1 hour for six consecutive hours. This research shows that EETL 100 mg/kgBW and RFTL doses of 100 and 200 mg/kgBW have an anti-inflammatory effect with a percent inhibitory power of >50%. Phytochemical screening showed that EETL contains alkaloids, saponins, tannins, and phenolics. EAFTL contains tannins and phenolics, whereas RFTL contains saponins, tannins, and phenolics.  Keywords: Taro leaves, antiinflammatory, egg white solution, fractionation

Abstract

Kidney stones are hard kidney material, such as stones that originate from minerals and salts. Alternative therapy using medicinal plants as anticalculi is an option for treating kidney stones. One plant with anticalculi activity is celery, which contains various active chemical compounds, including apigenin. Apigenin is a diuretic that can help the kidneys remove excess fluid and salt from the body. However, apigenin has low solubility in water. To overcome the limited solubility of apigenin, nanosuspensions were prepared. This study aimed to formulate a nanosuspension, evaluate its preparation, and test it in vitro. This formula uses the concentration of the suspending agent, Na. The different alginates were F0 without active  substances (0%) and F1 (1%), F2 (2%), and F3 (3%). The evaluation of the preparation includes tests for pH, viscosity, specific gravity, particle size, zeta potential, and adsorption efficiency. The results showed that the preparation had an average pH value of 4-7, an average viscosity value of 78-162 cP, a specific gravity of 0.98-1.02 g/mL, the preparation had a particle size of 928–974 nm, zeta potential of-26, 3 to -41.7, and an average entrapment efficiency of 99.63%-99.64%. Apigenin nanosuspension preparations can dissolve kidney stone calcium at 1800-7800 ppm. The test results showed that the apigenin nanosuspension has the potential to dissolve calcium kidney stones.

Abstract

Nutmeg seed oil has a low absorption time and is unstable during storage; therefore, so to facilitate this it is made in a nanoemulgel form because it can increase contact time and increase drug penetration into the skin. This study aimed to determine the effect of variations in nutmeg seed oil concentration on the physical characteristics and penetration rate of nanoemulgel preparations. Nanoemulgel was made by mixing the nanoemulsion phase into a gel base with oil concentrations of 4.5%, 5%, and 5.5%. The nanoemulsion physical characteristics results are 90.7–91.1% for the turbidimetry test, 453–516 nm for particle size, 42.4–48.6 mV for the zeta potential test, 6.46–6.66 for the pH test, and O/W for nanoemulsion type. Physical characteristics included organoleptic tests, homogeneity, pH, adhesive power, spreadability, viscosity, and rheology. The penetration rate was determined using the Franz diffusion-cell method. The results showed that the nanoemulgel preparation was white in color and had a characteristic smell of nutmeg oil, a semisolid, homogeneous texture, skin pH of 4.5–6.5, spreadability met the range of 5–7 cm, adhesion of >4 seconds, viscosity of 4000–50000 cPs, and pseudoplastic flow properties. The best formulas are found in Formulas 1 and 2 because the stability test meets the requirements for good physical characteristics. Variations in the concentration of nutmeg oil did not show any influence on the penetration rate, with the flux values ??obtained for each formula being F1 0.0117 mg/cm2hour-1, F2 0.0126 mg/cm2hour-11, and F3 0.0246 mg/cm2hour-1.
