2022-12-31T22:26:54+07:00

As the enzyme responsible for the uric acid formation, Xanthine oxidase was considered to be a therapeutic target for hyperuricemic treatment. This study was carried out to assess the potential of caryophyllene, and its derivates usually present in the natural product to inhibit Xanthine oxidase. The molecular docking using Autodock Tool and Biovia Discovery Studio was conducted to visualize the molecular interaction and to reveal the structure-activity relationship of those compounds. The results showed that the derivates of caryophyllene showed a higher affinity to Xanthine Oxide than Allopurinol. Among those all, caryophyllene oxide has the most stable bonding to xanthine oxide. Structure-activity relationship analysis showed that the chemical properties of the compound affected the affinity and molecular interaction to the enzyme as the target site in this study. The number of double bonds, substituents position, conformational structure related to steric hindrance, and the presence of lactone ring were assumed to influence the xanthine oxide inhibitory activity of caryophyllene derivates.

Natrium diklofenak merupakan golongan NSAID (Non Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) yang banyak diresepkan untuk inflamasi dan nyeri. Namun dalam penggunaannya secara oral, natrium diklofenak mengalami first pass metabolism di hati sehingga hanya sekitar 50% saja obat yang sampai pada sirkulasi sistemik dan jika seringkali diberikan dengan dosis yang lebih tinggi dapat memperparah efek samping di saluran pencernaan. Karena beberapa kerugian diklofenak pada penggunaan oral, maka diklofenak dikembangkan ke sistem penghantaran transdermal dalam hal ini nanovesikel transfersom yang dipilih sebagai alternatif untuk mengatasi permasalahan tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memformulasi vesikel transfersom natrium diklofenak dengan perbandingan (4,5%:0,5%), (4,5%:1%), (4%:0,5%) dan (4%:1%) agar diperoleh perbandingan formula optimum vesikel transfersom natrium diklofenak dengan basis fosfatidilkolin kedelai dan span 80 menggunakan design expert dan untuk mengetahui karakteristik transfersom natrium diklofenak berupa efisiensi penjerapan, distribusi ukuran partikel dan zeta potensial.

Staphylococcus aureus is a normal bacteria flora in the oral cavity and often causes infections. Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) contains flavonoids that can inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. Saffron extract is formulated into edible film preparations because it can control drug release and maintain active substances, especially antibacterial ones. This study aims to determine the effect of comparing PVA and xanthan gum concentrations on edible film preparation physical characteristics and antibacterial activity. Also, to find out the optimal formula. This study uses the Simplex Lattice Design method and Design Expert to determine the concentration ratio. The optimization parameters of the preparation included pH, soluble time, water absorption, and antibacterial activity test using the well diffusion method. The ANOVA results showed that adding PVA concentration accelerated the dissolution time and increased the antibacterial inhibition. The addition of xanthan gum concentration increased the pH value and water absorption. The test results obtained pH 5.52, dissolution time 22.25 seconds, water absorption capacity is 43.95%, and antibacterial inhibition is 0.53 cm. The optimal formula was received at the concentration of PVA at 5.59% and xanthan gum at 0.41%. T-test shows that the equation of each optimal parameter is valid.

In obese patients, one way to prevent obesity with the right method is to modulate the intestinal microflora. The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the differences in administration of milk kefir with additional sorghum flour on body weight, appetite, and abdominal fat in mice (Mus musculus) induced obesity.This type of research is a true experimental in vivo using a randomized controlled design pretest – posttest control group design. The experimental animals used were 34 healthy mice (Mus musculus). Data analysis with normal distribution was tested by One Way Anova, otherwise Kruskal Wallis was tested. Meanwhile, categorical data were tested Univariate. The results showed that in the third treatment (P3) mice experienced differences in the treatment given milk kefir with the addition of sorghum flour and high fat diet feed for 8 weeks or 56 days there was a difference in weight loss as measured by weight gain (p<0.05), then there wasn’t difference in appetite (p>0.05), while there was a difference in abdominal fat compared to the control group. So, for those who are obese, it’s expected that milk kefir products with sorghum can be used as a daily drink to help reduce body weight and abdominal fat.

2022-12-31T22:26:56+07:00

Aging is caused by free radicals, one of which is ultraviolet light which can form ROS. Galactomannan compounds have the potential as antioxidants that can counteract free radicals. Kolang kaling contains many galactomannan compounds. Kolang kaling is processed into a peel-off gel mask, where PVA and glycerin are essential ingredients. PVA can form a polymer film layer, but if the layer is not balanced, glycerin is used as a humectant. The results of the FTIR analysis showed that the functional groups were D-galactopyranose and D-mannopyranose, which were characteristic of the functional groups of galactomannan. The IC50 of kolang kaling powder is 23.8720 ppm, a powerful antioxidant. The interaction of PVA and glycerin increased drying time, viscosity, antioxidant activity, and decreased dispersion, adhesion, and pH. The optimal formula obtained was 14.47% PVA and 15.73% glycerin. The results of the One Sample T-Test validity test found that the results of the equations of each test were valid.
