Abstract

Phenylbutazone is a pharmaceutical substance often added to rheumatic herbs. However, because of the complexity of the matrix caused by the presence of compounds in herbal medicines, the determination of phenylbutazone requires a time-consuming sample preparation process prior to analysis. This study was conducted to develop a specific sorbent that can be used to prepare phenylbutazone in herbal medicine. The performance of phenylbutazone Molecularly Imprinted Polymer (MIP) was evaluated using three distinct porogens (ethanol, methanol, and methanol-chloroform (1:1)) and two polymerization procedures (bulk and precipitation). According to the results of the polymer optimization, the polymer generated by precipitation in methanol-chloroform (1:1) has good sorbent characteristics. FTIR physical characterization revealed complete polymerization. The bulk procedure produces a more physically stable sorbent than the precipitation method does.  Keywords: MIP Performance Evaluation, Phenylbutazone Molecular Imprinted Polymer, Polymer Imprinting Factor

Abstract

Indonesia is a country with a diverse biodiversity spread across various regions. Several types of plants in Indonesia can be utilised as herbal medicines. One such plant suitable for medicinal purposes is mint leaves (Mentha x piperita L.). The chemical content found in mint leaves includes essential oils that serve as stimulants. This research aims to determine whether mint leaf extract can be used to create an effervescent granule formulation. Effervescent granules are produced using the wet granulation method, incorporating the active ingredient of mint leaf extract with different concentrations: F0: without the addition of mint leaf extract; F1: mint leaf extract added with a concentration of 15%; and F2: mint leaf extract added with a concentration of 17%. The effervescent granule formula is then evaluated based on its physical characteristics. Phytochemical screening of mint leaves yielded positive results, indicating the presence of essential oils. All mint leaf extract formulations tested for physical evaluation met the specified criteria. Flow properties and angle of repose testing resulted in values between 2-3 seconds for flow properties and 35°-36° for the angle of repose. Compressibility testing produced results ranging from 5% to 15%, pH testing yielded results between 5 and 6, and dissolution time results ranged from 40 to 41 seconds.  Keywords: Mint leaves, extraction, wet granulation, effervescent granules

Abstract

A wound patch is a dosage form that delivers drugs through the skin to produce systemic effects, with the advantage of controlled drug release. Centella asiatica (L.) Urb.) is widely used to heal incision wounds on the skin. The most important component was asiaticoside, which plays a major role in accelerating wound healing. This  study  was  conducted  to  test  the  effectiveness  of  transdermal  patches  from Centella asiatica (L.) Urb.) against incision  wounds was performed on 5 rabbits divided into different treatment groups, namely group I without treatment, group II wound patch base (negative control), group III plaster (positive control), and groups IV and V, comprising a wound patch of gotu kola leaf extract at concentrations of 16% and 32%, respectively. The data obtained were statistically tested for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk test.  The results showed that the wound patch preparation of 16% gotu kola leaf extract showed  a significant difference (p < 0.05) in wound length reduction compared to the negative and normal controls.  The wound healing time observed at concentrations of 16% and 32% provided wound healing effects. The best effect was observed at a concentration of 16%, with an average wound closure time of 12 days. It can be concluded that gotu kola leaf extract in the form of a wound patch preparation was effective in wound healing.

Abstract

This research is based on Acehnese traditional medicine containing betel leaf, areca nut, kencur rhizome, gambier sap, and clove buds. Traditionally, all parts of the plant are wrapped in betel leaf folds and chewed to maintain oral health. This study aimed to incorporate these ingredients into an herbal toothpaste and test its efficacy against bacteria that cause tooth decay, such as S. mutans and E. faecalis. Extracts from betel leaf, areca nut, aromatic ginger, gambier sap, and clove buds were used in this study. Based on variations in extract concentrations, three formulations were developed: F1, F2, and F3. In addition, F0 was the toothpaste base. The herbal toothpaste was light brown in color, homogeneous, semisolid, and had a characteristic betel leaf aroma, according to the evaluation results. The final product had a pH of 7.52–8.59, viscosity of 238.9–242.3 cP, and a foam height of 20 mm (F0), 11 mm (F1), 9 mm (F2), and 6 mm (F3). These values meet the toothpaste quality standard (SNI 112-3524-1995). While F1 showed moderate inhibition against S. mutans and E. faecalis in the antibacterial test, F2 and F3, showed high inhibition against S. mutans and moderate inhibition against E. faecalis. Based on these results, the optimal formula is F3 which has a larger inhibition diameter of 12.23 mm for S. mutans and 9.10 mm for E. faecalis. This herbal toothpaste can be developed to prevent oral candidiasis and gingivitis.  Keywords: herbal toothpaste, antibacterial activity, Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis

Abstract

Sungkai plants are beneficial immunomodulators because of the presence of flavanoid compounds that increase oxygen radicals and antibody production. Pharmaceutical preparations function as immunomodulators, typically in the form of syrups, tablets, capsules, suspensions, and emulsions. Until now, there has been no nanoparticle syrup on the market, even though nanoparticle preparations have the advantage of modifying particle size, controlling the release of active ingredients to reach the active side, protecting drugs from degradation, reducing toxicity, and minimizing side effects. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the syrup of nanoparticles in the ethanol extract of Sungkai leaves acts as an immunomodulator and the stability of the preparation during storage. The methods used were experimental in the laboratory with extraction using the maceration method. The extract obtained was formulated into a nanoparticle solution using the ionic gelation method, then formulated into FO syrup (Base syrup) and F1 syrup (Nanoparticles of ethanol extract of sungkai leaves) and then carried out transmittance tests, particle size analyzer tests, immunomodulatory tests and stability tests. The yield of the extract was 17.5%. The raw material examination of all the materials was in accordance with the literature. The particle size of the nanoparticle solution was 40 nm, that of F0 syrup was 670 nm, and that of F1 syrup was 964 nm. All syrup preparations fell into the nanoparticle size category of 10–1,000 nm. The leukocyte count of the negative control treatment (syrup base) was 5,011 cells/mm³, ...

Abstract

Breast cancer accounts for approximately 16.6% of 396,914 cases of cancer and is one of the most fatal and common diseases among women. Treatment of breast cancer mostly has side effects, but the incidence of drug side effects does not always appear because the target drug does not selectively act on the target action. The aim of this study was to find a picture of post-chemotherapy treatment in breast cancer chemotherapy patients participating in the National Health Insurance at RSUD Yogyakarta. Observational method: Retrospective collection of data obtained from patients’ medical records. The subjects included patients with breast cancer at RSUD Yogyakarta who met the inclusion criteria for the primary diagnosis of breast cancer and received chemotherapy medication during the period of 2020. The univariate analysis showed the distribution of frequency and percentage of respondent characteristics, including age, gender, number of patients, single and combination chemotherapy drugs, generic and commercial drugs, and single or combination post-chemotherapy medications. The results were obtained from 72 patients who underwent 4 periods of chemotherapy. The most frequently used chemotherapy regimens for each period were the period 1 combination of Brexel, Epirubicin, Carboplatin. Period 2 combination of the Brexel and Zometa regimes. Periode 3 combination brexel, epirubicine, and carboplatin. The most widely used combination of post-chemotherapy drugs in periods 1-4 was the combination of Ranitidine and Ondansetron.
