Gastropoda termasuk salah satu kelompok hewan yang memiliki jumlah terbesar dalam dunia hewan dengan jenis yang umum dikenal adalah siput, kerang, dan cumi-cumi. Limbah cangkang merupakan masalah yang harus segera diatasi karena memiliki dampak yang buruk pada makhluk hidup, seperti terjadinya pencemaran tanah dan air. Limbah organik dari cangkang juga dapat mempengaruhi kualitas udara jika terjadi pembusukan dan dapat menimbulkan penyakit ISPA (Infeksi Saluran Pernafasan Atas). Kreca (Bellamya javanica) merupakan salah satu hewan Mollusca yang hidup bebas di daerah persawahan dan dapat dikonsumsi masyarakat. Cangkang kreca mengandung kitin, mineral, kalsium dan protein, sehingga limbah cangkangnya memiliki potensi untuk diolah dan dikembangkan menjadi suatu produk bernilai ekonomi tinggi salah satunya sebagai sumber kitin- kitosan. Kitosan merupakan salah satu turunan dari senyawa kitin diperoleh melalui proses demineralisasi, deproteinasi dan deasetilasi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh perbedaan penggunaan refluksdan magnetic stirrer pada proses isolasi kitosan tahap deasetilasi terhadap persentase rendemen dan derajat deasetilasi kitosan yang dihasilkan. Pada penggunaan refluks didapatkan nilai rendemen yang lebih besar yaitu 10,819% daripada magnetic stirrer. Hasil analisis FTIR dari kitosan yang dihasilkan dari penggunaan refluks dan magnetic stirrer didapatkan beberapa gugus fungsi yaitu gugus OH, CH, CO Amida, CH2 dan COC, dengan nilai derajat deasetilasi pada penggunaan refluks sebesar 38,6% dan 47,8% pada penggunaan magnetic stirrer, sehingga disimpulkan penggunaan magnetic stirrer lebih baik daripada refluks dilihat dari nilai derajat deasetilasinya. Gastropods are among the largest groups of animals in the animal kingdom, with commonly known types being snails, clams, and squid. Shell waste is a problem that needs to be addressed immediately because it has a detrimental impact on living beings, such as causing soil and water pollution. Organic waste from shells can also affect air quality if it decomposes and can cause respiratory infections. Kreca (Bellamya javanica) is one type of mollusk that lives freely in paddy fields and can be consumed by the community. Kreca shells contain chitin, minerals, calcium, and protein, so the shell waste has the potential to be processed and developed into a high-economic-value product, one of which is as a source of chitin-chitosan. Chitosan is a derivative of the chitin compound obtained through the processes of demineralization, deproteinization, and deacetylation. This study aims to determine the effect of using reflux and a magnetic stirrer in the chitosan isolation process at the deacetylation stage on the percentage yield and the degree of deacetylation of the resulting chitosan. Using reflux resulted in a higher yield value of 10.819% compared to the magnetic stirrer. The FTIR analysis results of the chitosan obtained from using reflux and magnetic stirrer showed several functional groups: OH, CH, CO Amide, CH2, and COC, with the degree of deacetylation using reflux being 38.6% and 47.8% using the magnetic stirrer. Therefore, it is concluded that using a magnetic stirrer is better than reflux in terms of the degree of deacetylation.

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by increased blood glucose concentration, known as hyperglycemia. Several studies report that diabetes mellitus is associated with the presence of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). One of the medicinal plants that has the potential to be used to treat diabetes mellitus is pomegranate (Punica granatum L.). Therefore, this study aimed to observe the effect of bioactive compounds of pomegranate peel as antidiabetic against TNF-α using a molecular docking approach. The stages of molecular docking include geometry optimization, validation of the docking program, docking ligand test, and visualization of the docking results. The target compounds analyzed from pomegranate peel were ellagitannin and punicalagin. The macromolecular target wasTNF-α. Redocking between the original ligand and the target TNF-α showed an RMSD value of ≤ 2.0 Å with a value of 0.4902 Å. The hydrophobic interaction was formed between ellagitannin and punicalagin on the TNF-α target shows excellent ligand-receptor interactions, this can be seen from the binding free energy value which is smaller when compared to the co-crystal ligand. These results indicate that the complex formed from tethering ellagitannin and punicalagin to the TNF-α target is more stable than the original ligand complex with the TNF-α target. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that pomegranate peel has excellent potential as an antidiabetic. In silico research shows that pomegranate peel content such as ellagitannin can bind stably with TNF-α (ΔG = -132.44kcal/mol), so it is predicted to be able to suppress TNF-α which is responsible for the emergence of diabetes mellitus.

Menyajikan informasi obat dan konsisten pada etiket obat memiliki potensi untuk meningkatkan kepatuhan dan hasil terapi. Etiket obat harus memuat informasi penting yang dibutuhkan pasien untuk menjamin obat yang aman dan efektif. Diperlukan panduan pelabelan obat untuk mengurangi potensi kesalahan pengobatan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat perbedaan sikap, pemahaman, dan praktik penggunaan obat oleh pasien yang mendapat sediaan sirup kering dengan 2 macam desain etiket, yaitu etiket yang umum digunakan di Indonesia dan etiket yang dikembangkan berdasarkan panduan dari beberapa negara, yaitu FIP, USP, dan ACSQHC. Dalam penelitian ini, diperoleh total 80 responden. Hasil yang diperoleh adalah tidak ada perbe- daaan sikap dari kedua kelompok responden mengenai desain etiket kecuali dalam hal kelengkapan isi informasi (P = 0,044). Pada variabel pengetahuan juga tidak terdapat perbedaan bermakna pada kedua kelompok responden, namun pada variabel praktik penggunaan terdapat perbedaan bermakna (P = 0,020) dimana kelompok responden satu mempunyai skor yang lebih tinggi dari kelompok dua yaitu masing-massing 2,68 ± 0,474 dan 2,28 ± 0,784. Kebenaran dalam mengukur dosis dapat dipengaruhi oleh keterampilan motorik seseorang, namun tetap dibutuhkan kelengkapan informasi yang dapat mengurangi potensi medication error, sehingga diperlukan panduan yang mengatur informasi minimal yang harus ada dalam etiket obat pada pelayanan resep di Indonesia. Presenting drug information and consistency on drug labels has the potential to improve compliance and therapeutic outcomes. Drug labels must contain important information needed by patients to ensure safe and effective drugs. Drug labeling guidelines are needed to reduce the potential for medication errors. This study aims to see the differences in attitudes, understanding, and practices of drug use by patients who receive dry syrup preparations with 2 types of label designs, namely labels commonly used in Indonesia and labels developed based on guidelines from several countries, namely FIP, USP, and ACSQHC. In this study, a total of 80 respondents were obtained. The results obtained that there was no difference in attitudes from the two groups of respondents regarding label design except in terms of the completeness of the information content (P = 0.044). In the understanding variable, there was also no significant difference in the two groups of respondents, but in the practice variable there was a significant difference (P = 0.020), where respondent group one had a higher score than group two, namely 2.68 ± 0.474 and 2.28 ± 0.784 respectively. The accuracy in measuring the dose can be influenced by a person's motor skills, but complete information is still needed to reduce the potential for medication errors, so a guideline is needed that regulates the minimum information that must be included in drug labels in prescription services in Indonesia.

Lip balm merupakan produk perawatan bibir yang sangat esensial karena fungsinya dalam menjaga kelembapan dan memberikan proteksi terhadap kekeringan. Kombinasi cocoa butter dan minyak jarak sering digunakan dalam formulasi lip balm karena sifatnya yang melembapkan, namun rasio yang tidak tepat dapat mempengaruhi stabilitas dan tekstur produk. Ekstrak lidah buaya (Aloe vera Linn.) memberikan tambahan manfaat dalam melembapkan dan menyejukkan, sehingga meningkatkan khasiat lip balm. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengamati kesesuaian lip balm dengan spesifikasi dan memperoleh rasio cocoa butter dan minyak jarak terbaik berdasarkan karakteristik dan stabilitasnya. Lip balm diformulasikan dalam tiga formula yang bervariasi pada rasio cocoa butter dan minyak jarak, masing-masing adalah 10:44,2 (formula I), 11:43,2 (formula II) dan 12:42,2 (formula III). Kondisi penyimpanan produk dikondisikan pada suhu 40 °C dan RH 75% ± 5% selama 30 hari. Keseluruhan formula lip balm memenuhi seluruh spesifikasi yaitu organoleptis, kekerasan, berat jenis, titik lebur, spreadability dan pH. Rasio cocoa butter dan minyak jarak mempengaruhi karakteristik titik lebur dan pH lip balm. Lip balm lidah buaya formula II dengan rasio cocoa butter dan minyak jarak 11:43,2 merupakan formula terbaik yang stabil pada keseluruhan parameter. Lip balm is an essential lip care product due to its function in maintaining moisture and providing protection against dryness. A combination of cocoa butter and castor oil is commonly used in lip balm formulations due to its moisturizing properties; however, an incorrect ratio can affect the product stability and texture. Aloe vera (Aloe vera Linn.) extract provides additional benefits in terms of hydration and soothing, thereby enhancing the efficacy. This study aims to evaluate the conformity of the lip balm with specified standards and to determine the optimal ratio of cocoa butter to castor oil based on its stability. The lip balm was formulated in three different formulations with varying cocoa butter and castor oil ratios: 10:44.2 (formula I), 11:43.2 (formula II), and 12:42.2 (formula III). Storage conditions were set at 40 °C and RH 75% ± 5% for 30 days. All formulations met the pecifications, including organoleptic properties, hardness, specific gravity, melting point, spreadability, and pH. The cocoa butter-to-castor oil ratio influenced the melting point and pH characteristics of the lip balm. Lip balm formula II, with a cocoa butter and castor oil ratio of 11:43.2, was the best formula, stable across all parameters.
