Influence of extraction method on total phenolic content and antioxidant activity of Sappan Wood (Caesalpinia sappan L.) extract

2024-09-02T07:26:20+08:00

Sappan wood is a botanical species that contains a high concentration of phenolic compounds, which contribute to several pharmacological properties, including antidiabetic, antibacterial, antioxidant, and wound-healing activities. In order to achieve phenolic compounds of high quality and quantity, it is crucial to select an appropriate extraction procedure. Plant extraction is an important step for chemical isolation, chemical analysis, and evaluating the biological and pharmacological activities of plant compounds. Therefore, determining the most favorable extraction conditions is a critical undertaking in order to maximize both the quantity of active plant compounds and the extraction yield. This research aimed to compare extraction methods based on total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant activity (IC₅₀). The extraction techniques employed include maceration, stirring-assisted extraction (SAE), ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), and microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). The results show TPC values for maceration, SAE, UAE, and MAE, which are 132.85±1.44, 150.99±1.69, 206.70±6.56, and 115.70±1.44 mg GAE/g DE, respectively. The DPPH antioxidant activity (IC₅₀) values are 32.33±2.64, 25.01±0.34, 20.68±0.29, and 29.18±0.70 µg/mL, respectively. The research findings indicate that various extraction procedures can impact the extraction yield, total phenolic content (TPC), and antioxidant activity (IC₅₀) of sappan wood, and UAE is the best extraction method.

The aim is to ascertain the in vivo antioxidant activity of beligo fruit flesh ethanol extract based on the measurement of malondialdehyde levels in Wistar male rats generated by used frying oil. The procedure involves macerating 70% ethanol to extract the flesh from beligo fruit and assessing the in vivo antioxidant activity by measuring the amounts of malondialdehyde in fifty Wistar male rats split into 5 groups. Group V received vitamin C at a dose of 27 mg/kgBW, and groups II, III, and IV received an ethanol extract of beligo fruit flesh at 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg BW. Group I received 1% Na-CMC as a negative control. Using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer, malondialdehyde levels were determined using the TBARS test. Statistical data analysis by a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) and an Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) follow-up test. Malondialdehyde levels decreased in Group I (19.16%), Group II (78.70%), Group III (82.86%), Group IV (87.76%), and Group V (90.23%) according to the study's findings. The study findings demonstrated the antioxidant potential of beligo fruit flesh ethanol extract at doses of 100 mg, 200 mg/kg BW (p<0.05), and 400 mg/kg BW (p<0.01) in lowering malondialdehyde levels in Wistar male rats.

Anti-dandruff shampoo on the market still uses zinc pyriton which has the side effect of causing hair loss. Pomegranate leaves have strong antifungal activity against dandruff-causing fungi. This research aims to determine the optimum formula and physical properties of pomegranate leaf shampoo preparations with variations of SLS and cocamide DEA. The ethanol extract of pomegranate leaves was extracted by soxhletation and carried out in a tube test. Eight shampoo formula designs were determined using the SLD method. The shampoo was tested for foam height, pH, and viscosity to obtain the optimum formula. The optimum shampoo preparation was tested for physical properties, including organoleptic tests, homogeneity, foam stability, foam height, pH, and viscosity. The results of the test for the physical properties of the optimum shampoo preparation were verified using the SPSS application with the one-sample t-test method. Pomegranate leaf ethanol extract positively contains alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, and saponins. The optimization results obtained the optimum shampoo formula, namely a combination of SLS 5.5% and cocamide DEA 15.5%. Optimum formula shampoo has a black color, menthol odor, gel form, ingredients mixed homogeneously, foam stability 81.83%, foam height 9.30 ± 0.26 cm, pH 5.91 ± 0.45, and viscosity 1646.66 ± 220.23 cP.

Phyllanthus niruri is traditionally used to treat intestinal worms. The content of flavonoids in Phyllanthus niruri has the potential as an anthelmintic. The aims of study are to identify flavonoid compounds of the ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri and determine the anthelmintic activity against Paramphistomum spp. Paramphistomum spp. grouped into positive control (Albendazole 10% w/v), negative control (CMC-Na 0.5% w/v), ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri 1.25%, 2.5%, and 5% w/v. For 5 hours, the time and quantity of dead worms were counted every 15 minutes. The average time of death and percentage of worm mortality were then calculate. Differences in average time of death were analyzed with Kruskal-Wallis and Mann Whitney. The results of the test tube and TLC showed the content of flavonoid compounds. Percentage of mortality of Paramphistomum spp. obtained by 100%. Average death time of Paramphistomum spp. at 50, 275, 155, 140, and 115 minutes respectively. Ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri contained flavonoid compounds and has anthelmintic activity with an optimum concentration of 5% w/v although lower than Albendazole 10% w/v (p<0.05).

2024-10-24T14:37:38+08:00

Pharmaceutical installations can provide substantial revenue if managed properly and efficiently. Good or bad service can affect patient satisfaction. For this reason, pharmaceutical installations must improve quality in terms of patient satisfaction, one of which is by reducing waste that occurs in the pharmaceutical service process in hospitals. This study aims to analyze what waste occurs in outpatient depot services to improve service efficiency. This research is descriptive qualitative. Data were obtained through document review, direct observation, interviews. Waste identification uses Value Stream Mapping and Fishbone Diagram to determine the root causes of critical waste that occurs. The results showed that the highest percentage of value added was in the ordinary prescription service of 63.41%, the highest percentage of necessity but non-value added was in the prescription service that required drug distribution from the warehouse unit of 70.79%, and the highest non-value added was in the compounded prescription service process of 36.59%. By using lean hospital, it can be identified that many wastes occur including waiting, transportation, and defects. Increasing service efficiency at the Siti Hajar Mataram Islamic Hospital Outpatient depot can be done by minimizing non-value added activities.

Perkembangan targeted therapy pada kanker payudara dengan pertimbangan luaran biaya dan kualitas hidup: narrative review

2024-09-26T05:43:37+08:00

Breast cancer is a malignant tumour that grows in the breast tissue and can spread to the lymph nodes and metastasize to other parts of the body. Targeted therapy is currently developed as a therapeutic management for breast cancer with hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HR+/HER2-). This review aims to determine the effectiveness both in terms of clinical and cost on the use of single or combined targeted therapy when compared with conventional therapy, namely chemotherapy in breast cancer patients. The results show that the use of targeted therapy can provide greater health benefits in both single and combination use even though it can increase the cost of therapy.
