PEMBUATAN GEL ANTISEPTIK DARI DAUN KEMANGI (Ocimum basilicum L.) DENGAN VARIASI KONSENTRASI HYDROXYPROPYL METHYL CELLULOSE
Daftar Isi:
- Leaves of basil is plant that contain flavonoid and saponin that has an antibacterial activity.The aim of this research was to identificationcompound basil leaves extract(Ocimum basilicum L.), create the antiseptic gel of basil leaves extract, and determine physical gel stability antiseptic with based HPMC basis gel and Methyl Paraben as preservative ingredient. This research aims to hand sanitizer gel with extract of basil leaves as an inhibitor of bacteria on the handsanitizer with HPMC (Hidroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose). Making of hand sanitizer basil leaves extract with HPMC gel different concentraction of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, and 3.5.and Methyl Paraben 0,2% as preservative ingredient, and extract of basil leaves1% as Antibacterial Activity. Hand sanitizer gel tested by the physical including organoleptic tests, pH, homogeneity test, density, viscosity, spread power test, dry time, safe test and effectiveess tess. Organoleptic tested with hedonic test were done to the best formula and involving 20 respondents. The result showed that the ethanol extract of basil leaves after were concentractionin antiseptic hand gel has good physical stability is F3 (concentration of HPMC 2.5%) because has produce physical charateristic more optimal and effect addition from methyl paraben as preservative ingredients can mantain of influence storage less than two month probationary period and physical structural balance from gel.
