Abstract

The authentication of lipid sources in cosmetic products is essential due to regulatory, ethical, and religious concerns, particularly regarding the potential presence of porcine-derived ingredients. This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for differentiating lipid profiles in olive oil–based facial mask formulations. Reference lipids, including porcine fat and olive oil, as well as lipid extracts from five commercial cosmetic products, were analyzed using FTIR spectroscopy within the mid-infrared region (4000–650 cm⁻¹). Characteristic absorption bands corresponding to triglyceride structures were observed in all samples, while differences between lipid sources were primarily identified within the fingerprint region (1500–1000 cm⁻¹). PCA was applied to enhance spectral discrimination and revealed clear separation between porcine fat and olive oil along the principal components. Most cosmetic samples (HCN, LTL, NR, and QN) were positioned closer to the olive oil reference, whereas one sample (MDG) showed spectral proximity to porcine fat. However, these results reflect spectral similarity rather than definitive confirmation of lipid origin. The findings indicate that FTIR spectroscopy combined with chemometric analysis can provide a rapid and non-destructive approach for preliminary screening of lipid sources in cosmetic matrices. Nevertheless, due to the limited number of samples and the complexity of cosmetic formulations, further studies incorporating broader sample sets and confirmatory analytical methods are required to support its application in halal authentication and quality control.

Abstract

Halal tourism development in Indonesia has strong economic potential; however, its implementation remains uneven across regions due to fragmented governance and limited stakeholder integration. This study aims to analyze halal tourism development in Semarang City by examining institutional roles, supporting and inhibiting factors, and implementation mechanisms. A qualitative descriptive approach was applied using purposive sampling, with data collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. The findings, derived from interviews with government officials, tourism stakeholders, and field observations of tourism services, show that halal tourism development in Semarang is supported by inter-agency collaboration, cross-sectoral coordination, and digital promotion strategies. Field evidence indicates that coordination between tourism and food-related agencies plays a key role in accelerating SME halal certification support, while tourism sites have gradually integrated Muslim-friendly services such as prayer facilities and halal food information systems. However, challenges remain, particularly related to differing perceptions of halal tourism among industry actors, uneven institutional coordination, and limited human resource capacity. These findings highlight that implementation gaps are not only structural but also shaped by stakeholder understanding and operational readiness at the local level. In addition, SME halal certification support and the strengthening of halal value chains remain important determinants of tourism performance in the city. The study contributes to halal tourism governance literature by emphasizing the role of micro-level coordination and stakeholder perception in shaping policy implementation outcomes, while practically suggesting stronger inter-agency coordination, clearer communication of halal tourism concepts, and targeted capacity-building programs for tourism actors.

Abstract

This study examined the associations of knowledge level, perception, and religiosity with halal cosmetics use among working women in Semarang City. A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, involving 111 respondents selected via snowball sampling. Data collected through a structured online questionnaire were analyzed using multiple linear regression. Results showed that knowledge (β = 0.070), perception (β = 0.077), and religiosity (β = 0.034) significantly and positively influenced halal cosmetics use (all p < 0.05), with perception emerging as the strongest predictor. The model explained a substantial proportion of variance (R^2 = 0.469). Respondents with positive perceptions were more likely to use halal-certified cosmetics consistently, indicating that usage is driven not only by religious values and knowledge but also by practical factors like accessibility, quality, safety, and consumer confidence. Although the cross-sectional design and non-probability sampling may limit generalizability, these findings offer valuable insights. Future studies should involve larger, more geographically diverse populations and explore additional marketing variables. Ultimately, these insights can guide cosmetic manufacturers, certification authorities, and policymakers in developing targeted educational strategies, transparent communication, and consumer-oriented promotional approaches within Indonesia’s competitive urban halal personal care market.

Abstract

The expanding global cosmetics market underscores the need to examine factors guiding young consumers, yet a distinct gap remains in understanding how operational halal literacy shapes purchasing paths among future pharmacy professionals. This study evaluates the statistical association between halal cosmetic knowledge and purchasing decisions among students at UIN Malang. Utilizing a quantitative design, survey data were collected via purposive non-probability sampling from 105 respondents, following preliminary instrumentation testing (n=35). Data were evaluated using descriptive metrics and simple linear regression analysis. Descriptive findings indicated that 72.38% of respondents possessed high knowledge of halal cosmetics, and 84.76% demonstrated high purchasing decision levels. Simple linear regression analysis revealed a positive, statistically significant directional association between halal cosmetic knowledge and purchasing choices (β = 0.502; p = 0.001). The model fit demonstrated an F-statistic of 34.697 (p = 0.001) with a coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.252), proving that knowledge accounts for 25.2% of the variance in students' purchasing decisions. While the non-probability sampling design and cross-sectional nature of this study limit broader geographic generalizability and preclude assumptions of strict longitudinal causality, the findings confirm that advanced cognitive literacy is a vital indicator in guiding compliant product selection. In conclusion, halal cosmetic knowledge significantly and positively positions consumer choice, operating within a wider multi-factor market ecosystem. These insights provide baseline evidence for regulatory authorities and industries to expand targeted educational frameworks that foster transparent, halal-conscious consumer behavior among highly educated populations.
