Abstract

Anredera cordifolia (AC) known as binahong plant in Indonesia is commonly used for traditional medicine since ancients. AC contains of secondary metabolites such as flavonoids that have anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic and anti-carcinogenic properties. Many flavonoids compound that has anti-inflammatory activity were potential for treatment of nasal inflammatory such as allergic rhinitis. This study aims to evaluate the preclinical safety of acute intranasal administration of AC extract in laboratory wistar rats. Acute toxicity using the intranasal route of administration of AC extract was evaluated on 30 female wistar rats, divided five rats for control, and each five of doses 5%, 10%, 25%, 50% and 75%. Observation during 14 days for the incidence of mortality and signs of toxicity. The AC extract intranasal administration doses at 5%, 10%, 25%, 50% and 75% did not show mortality or treatment related adverse events and did not showed significantly changes on blood profile. The AC extract was found safe until 75% for nasal administration in wistar rats.

Abstract

Quality control during production is a critical process that ensures the quality of the tablets until it reaches the consumer. In the pharmaceutical industry, there is a possibility of reworking, including tablet recompression. Nevertheless, the recompression process may have affected the potential of PVP K-30 as a binder to reunite the particles of tablet ingredients. However, the difference of PVP K-30 concentration might be resulting in the differences of granule and tablet characteristics. This study aims to determine whether there is an effect of recompression and the difference of PVP K-30 on the quality of paracetamol tablets. The effect of recompression and the difference of PVP K-30 was seen based on whether there is a significant different on physical properties of the mixture of tablet ingredients (mixture’s flow rate and compressibility) and the tablets (compatibility and tablet’s hardness, friability, and disintegration time) from the formula with a concentration of 2% w/w and 4% w/w PVP K-30 after experiencing 2 times of recompression. Paracetamol tablets were made by wet granulation method through the stages of granulation, lubrication, physical properties testing of the mixture, tablet compression, physical properties testing of tablets, crushing, and recompression. Data analysis was performed statistically using the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, followed by two-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) or Kruskal-Wallis test and Post Hoc Mann Whitney test. The results showed there was an effect of recompression and different concentration of PVP K-30 on the potential of PVP K-30 as a binder as seen from significant differences in the physical properties of the mixture and tablets in each test group.

Abstract

Diabetic patients with poor blood glucose control are highly susceptible to developing secondary infections, which can lead to the development of prolonged diabetic ulcers. Therefore, a suitable medication that may effectively prevent the occurrence of secondary infections is crucial to shorten the closure of diabetic ulcers. Red betel leaf (Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav) reportedly possesses antimicrobial activity due to the presence of flavonoids. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of ethanolic extract of red betel leaf (EERBL) ointments against the most prevalent bacteria associated with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU): Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The EERBL was prepared by macerating powdered red betel leaf with 96% ethanol and was screened for the presence of flavonoids and the determination of total flavonoid content (TFC) by thin layer chromatography and UV-Vis spectrophotometry, respectively. This study examined three hydrophilic-based ointments containing 10%, 20%, and 30% EERBL, respectively, followed by characterization for pH, spreadability, stickiness, and viscosity. The EERBL ointments' effect on the bacteria was evaluated using the well-diffusion method by observing inhibition zone formation after 24-hour incubation. The results showed that varying the EERBL concentrations in the formulations led to different spreadability, stickiness and viscosity (p<0.05). Furthermore, all EERBL ointments demonstrated the formation of an inhibition zone on cultured media, indicating the presence of antimicrobial activity. The ointment with 30% EERBL had the largest diameter of the inhibition zone against both bacteria (p<0.05). The findings suggest enhanced antimicrobial activity was observed with an increase in the concentration of EERBL within the ointments.

Abstract

Purple leaves are one of the plants that are widely used as medicine. Purple leaves have 3 types of plant varieties, namely purple leaves, green leaves, and white mottled leaves.  Purple leaves have pharmacological activities that can be used as medicine, including antioxidants (improving the deterioration of cells in the body), anti-inflammatory (reducing or suppressing inflammation), antidiabetic (lowering blood glucose levels), analgesics (relieving pain), immunomodulators (increasing the work of the immune system in the body), antihemorrhoids (treating symptoms and complaints of hemorrhoids), and antibacterial (as an antiseptic). The purpose of this study was to determine the antioxidant activity of purple leaf ethanol extract (Graphtophyllum pictum (L.) Griff) in vitro using the DPPH method and to determine its effectiveness as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory against Wistar rats.The results showed that antioxidant activity showed an IC50 value of 72.31 ppm (strong antioxidant). Meanwhile, in the analgetic test, the highest percentage of analgesic effectiveness was found at a dose of 100 mg/kg BW (129.64%) and showed anti-inflammatory activity at a dose of 100 mg/kgBW with a percentage decrease in edem volume of 28.73% at the sixth hour.

Abstract

Niacinamide is one of the components of cosmeceutical products that reported to have skin benefits for the treatment of skin pigmentation, acne and wrinkles. However, the dermal penetration of niacinamide is poor. The carrier system which can be selected to carry the compound through the stratum corneum layer is the niosome system using span 60. This study was aimed to determine the concentration of span 60 that can trap niacinamide optimally and the ability of niosome system span 60 to increase in vitro penetration of niacinamide in gel formulation. The different formulations of nicotinamide niosome were formulated with variance concentrations of Span 60, that is, formula A 100 μmol, formula B 150 μmol, and formula C 200 μmol. The entrapment efficiency testing was conducted using dialysis membrane. The gel formulation was prepared in two formulas, niacinamide niosome gel and niacinamide gel (without niosomes) and tested diffusion using Franz diffusion cell flow-through type. The result show that Formula A provides the most optimum entrapment efficiency of 99.03±0.026%. The results of the in vitro skin penetration studies for 8 hours indicate that the niosomal formulation using Span 60 could increase skin penetration with the percent cumulative amount of niacinamide niosomes was 82.87±1.6932% compared to niacinamide in gel without noisome system about 70.27±5,3212%.

Abstract

Most of the patients with end-stage renal disease who undergo hemodialysis receive erythropoietin (EPO) therapy for anemia treatment. Anemia with EPO deficiency is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). EPO therapy is expected to improve anemia and quality of life of patients. This analytic observational study was conducted in a cross-sectional design. It aimed to identify the difference in red blood cell profiles, namely hemoglobin (Hb), Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH), and Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC), and quality of life of CKD patients on EPO and non-EPO therapy at PKU Muhammadiyah Hospital in Yogyakarta. The inclusion criteria were PGK ICD N18.9 outpatients who received hemodialysis therapy at this hospital and were literate, able to understand the questionnaire, and willing to be a respondent. The results showed that there was no significant difference (p>0,05) between the red blood cells (Hb, MCV, MCH, MCHC) of the EPO and non-EPO therapy groups. The correlation between the EPO and the quality of life of patients in all of the KDQOL domains was p> 0.05. Aside from the insignificant difference between the EPO and non-EPO therapy groups, the research concluded that there was no correlation between either the EPO or the non-EPO therapy with the quality of life of hemodialysis patients.
