Abstract

Hair growth cosmetics that make hair grow and stimulate hair growth due to baldness and hair loss are often called hair tonics. The alternative to natural ingredients used for hair tonic cosmetics as hair growth by rubbing then on the scalp, cassava leaves are used which can accelerate hair growth and reduce the occurrence of hair loss because the cassava leaves contain vitamin C and organic compounds, such as flavonoids, tannins, triterpenoids, and saponins. Hair tonic processing in this study used an experimental method by processing cassava leaves into extracts with a concentration of 5%; 7.5% and 10%, mixed with additional ingredients in the form of rose water juice, propylenglycol, nipagin, nipasol, BHT, menthol, and methyl paraben. These preparations were then tested on male rabbits weighing 1.5-2 kg, and Observed for four weeks. Processed hair tonic is given in an orderly manner in the specified part. Extracting hair used tweezers so that it can be observed. In the 20 plucked hairs, choosen the 10 longest strands of hair and measure them with a caliper. The period of hair removal is once a week. This research concluded that the processed hair tonic of cassava leaf extract, a combination of rose water juice, can be processed at a concentration of 5%; 7.5%, and 10%. The 10% concentration of hair tonic in the cassava leaf extract, the combination of the juice of rose water, resulted in a better hair length growth of 0.30 mm when compared to Natur's processing of 0.25 mm.

Abstract

One of the plants commonly used as medicinal ingredients is tamarind leaf (Tamarindus indica L.). This plant belongs to the Leguminoceae family which has antidiabetic activity. This study aims to determine the antidiabetic activity of tamarind leaf capsule (Tamarindus indica L.) and determine the effective dose that acts as an anti-diabetic. This study used male white rabbits that had previously been induced with streptozotocin at a dose of 60 mg/kgBW. Rabbits were divided into five treatment groups, namely CMC-Na (negative control), glibenclamide 0.45 mg/kgBW (positive control) and tamarind leaf capsules at a dose of 50 mg/kgBW, 100 mg/kgBW and 200 mg/kgBW. The results obtained were analyzed by statistical test One way ANOVA and Tukey test. The results obtained that tamarind leaf capsules at a dose of 200 mg/kgBW have antidiabetic activity close to glibenclamide at a dose of 0.45 mg/kgBW. The results of the One Way ANOVA test obtained a significance value (p < 0.05) and when continued with the Tukey test, the results showed that tamarind leaf capsules at a dose of 100 mg/kgBW and a dose of 200 mg/kgBW had no significant difference in decreasing blood glucose levels. This means that both doses are effective as antidiabetic doses which are comparable to glibenclamide 0.45 mg/kgBW.

Abstract

Salak seeds (Salacca zalacca) used to be considered as waste that is not useful and just thrown away. Now with advances in technology, some of the by-products of salak seeds can be processed into more economical products such as activated carbon which can be used as a treatment for diarrhea because it acts as an adsorbent. The method used to make activated carbon tablets is the wet granulation method with 2 kinds of formulas. The physical properties of the tablets were tested, including weight uniformity, hardness, friability and tablet disintegration time. Pharmacological testing on this activated carbon tablet which is used for the treatment of diarrhea will be tested on rats given orally and observed for 3 days.and the maximum result is the addition of 250 mg of activated carbon where the weight of the feces is reduced by up to 30%

Abstract

Observational studies and randomised controlled studies suggest Increased prevalence of hyperuricemia is a decrease in physical activity and high consumption of purines. Disruption of urate reabsorption causes changes in the main functions of transporter proteins in the proximal tubule membrane. One of them is the intake of URAT1 and efflux by GLUT9 and also for the expression of SGLT2. Insulin resistance causes disturbances in glucose uptake in (SGLT2) and urate. The mechanism of glucose uptake can be mediated by exercise and effect of melinjo skin extract. A Technical Expert Panel (TEP) of 2 medical specialist and expertise of disorder the urinary system performed the review using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews) model.

Abstract

Dug well water is a source of clean water that is used by 99.39% of the residents of Sido Makmur Village, Kuala District, Langkat District to meet their daily needs. The majority of people who have cow pens around dug wells trigger the importance of conducting microbiological water quality research, given the existence of dug wells that are very vulnerable to cow manure contamination. Therefore the research sample was taken based on the distance of the dug well with a cattle pen that is less than 5 meters. Five samples from Inpres Hamlet, Petak Dua Hamlet, Handayani Hamlet, Sidorejo Hamlet and Mandailing Hamlet were tested using the Most Probable Number (MPN) method in the North Sumatra Province Health Laboratory, to determine the presence of Coliform and Escherichia coli through the estimation test, assertion test , and test the completeness and coloring of grams. Then a biochemical reaction test is performed to confirm the presence of Escherichia coli. The results showed that all dug well water samples with sample codes ASG 01, ASG 02, ASG 03, ASG 04 and ASG 05 were positively polluted by Coliform through assertion tests with total Coliform exceeding the 80% threshold and below the threshold of 20% based on Minister of Health Regulation No. 416 / MENKES / PER / IX / 1990 concerning Requirements and Supervision of Water Quality. Then there is also the content of Escherichia coli in the five samples which exceeds the established threshold, the positive results of E.coli have also been strengthened through the results of gram staining and biochemical reaction tests. Therefore the dug well water samples tested are not feasible or do not meet the microbiological quality requirements for clean water.

Abstract

Chinese betel leaf (Perperomia pellucida) is generally widely used as a medicinal plant. Many people use Chinese betel leaf as a traditional medicine based on natural ingredients which are believed to be able to treat various diseases with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs. In general, China betel leaf has several secondary metabolites, generally flavonoids, steroids, alkaloids and terpenoids. However, in testing for secondary metabolites, there is still no clear description of the plant parts taken. So this study aims to determine the secondary metabolites in the young leaves of Chinese betel (Peperromia pellucida) by gas chromatography. The results obtained based on the GCMS analysis contained 18 secondary metabolites. Phytol, 2,3-BIS (4-(CA RBOXYMETHYL) PHENYL) BENZO [B] FURAN, and 6-ALLYL-4,5 -DIMETHOXY- 1,3-BENZOD IOXOLE are the 3 highest bioactive com pounds based on the percentage of content.

Abstract

This study aimed to compare the antioxidant activity of white cabbage (B. oleracea var. capita f. alba) and red cabbage (B. oleracea var. capita f. rubra) in vitro. Dried cabbages were extracted by Soxhlet extraction using chloroform as solvent. The extracts were screened for phytochemicals followed by the antioxidant capacity measurement through free radical scavenging activity (DPPH and ABTS). The results showed that red cabbage extract (RCE) significantly had stronger antioxidant activity than white cabbage (WCE) (P<0,05). The IC50 values of RCE were 350,80 ± 5,27 µg/ml (DPPH) and 87,03 ± 1,92 µg/ml (ABTS) while these of WCE were 613,75 ± 8,76 µg/ml and 114,57± 0,41 µg/ml, respectively. Moreover, a higher level of phytoconstituents was found in RCE based on thin-layer chromatography analysis. These findings support that red cabbage has higher antioxidant activity than white cabbage which may be correlated with its phytoconstituents concentration.
