ABSTRAK Aspirin termasuk dalam golongan Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) yang banyak digunakan pada pengobatan nyeri ringan sampai sedang, antipiretik, anti inflamasi, serta anti koagulan. Pada penggunaan secara oral dapat menurunkan efektifitas obat akibat metabolisme lintas pertama. Alternatif untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut yaitu membuat sediaan topikal nanoemulsi aspirin. Nanoemulsi yaitu sistem emulsi yang transparan, tembus cahaya dan merupakan d ispersi minyak air yang distabilkan oleh lapisan film dari surfaktan dan ko-surfaktan, yang memiliki ukuran droplet 20 nm-500 nm. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membuat nanoemulsi aspirin dengan variasi konsentrasi etanol 96 % sebagai ko-surfaktan. Nanoemulsi aspirin dibuat dengan Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) sebagai fase minyak, tween 80 sebagai surfaktan,dan etanol 96 % sebagai ko-surfaktan. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan 5 formula nanoemulsi jernih beraroma khas dengan nilai pH berkisar pada range 4,0-4,5 yang telah memenuhi pH normal kulit. dengan konsentrasi etanol 96 % yaitu 10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 25 % dan 30 %, dan dibuat 3 replikasi. Hasil uji stabilitas fisik menunjukkan bahwa kelima formula menghasilkan nanoemulsi yang stabil dan tidak terjadi pemisahan fase sesudah uji sentrifugasi dan cycling test dilakukan. Kata Kunci     : Nanoemulsi, Aspirin, Etanol 96%, Ko-surfaktan   ABSTRACT Acetosal known to be a part of the group medications called Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) that was used for mild to moderate pain therapy, antipyretic, anti inflamation and anti coagulan. Oral administration of acetosal may decrease its effectiveness because of the first past metabolism problem. The purpose of this study was to formulate acetosal into nanoemulsion form for topical preparation as an alternative to avoid those problem with ethanol 96% as co-surfactant.  Nanoemulsion was an emultion system which transparent, glasslike, and comes from dispertion of water and oil stabilized by film-coated that made from surfactant and co-surfactant combination, which has droplet size around 20 nm-500 nm. Acetosal nanoemulsions were prepared with Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) as oil phase, tween 80 as surfactant and ethanol 96 % as co-surfactant. There were 5 formulas of transparent acetosal nanoemultion. Their yield of pH were about 4,0-4,5 were met the normal skin’s pH. They were acetosal nanoemulsions with ethanol 96 % of 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%. These five were stable and did not show the separation of phase after both centrifugation and cycling test. Keyword          : Nanoemulsion, Acetosal, Ethanol 96%, Co-Surfactan

The aim of this study was to select fungal strains and alternative substrates to increase the production of bioactive compounds by solid-state bioprocessing using soybeans. Initially, from a total of 17 fungi strains, R. oligosporus NRRL 3267, R. oligosporus NRRL 2710, and R. arrhizus NRRL 2582 were pre-selected for presenting the greatest antioxidant activities during soybean fermentation. The three Rhizopus strains were cultured in soybeans supplemented with different cereal grains (brown rice, wheat, corn, and oat) aiming to achieve a higher antioxidant activity. Soybean supplementation with brown rice increased the concentration of phenolic compounds (0.697 to 6.447 mg GAE g-1) significantly compared with the only use of soybean (1.792 to 3.10 mg GAE g-1), using R. oligosporus NRRL 2710. The improved fungal-mediated biotransformation process (R. oligosporus NRRL 2710 with soybeans and brown rice) generated an isoflavone aglycone-rich product, containing different antioxidant compounds, such as trans-cinnamic acid, gallic acid, myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol. The fermented substrate also showed great potential to inhibit hyaluronidase enzyme (anti-inflammatory activity) and against CaCo-2 tumor cells growth (antitumor activity). The resulting compound could serve as a value-added food and/or feed ingredient and a rich source of bioactive compounds.

Objective: Recurrent Aphthous Ulcer (RAU) is a common (75-80%) painful inflammatory ulcerative disorder of the non-keratinized oral mucosa. Wide range of antiseptics, anti-inflammatory, antibiotics and corticosteroids are available for treatment. Amlexanox is a topical anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic drug used to treat RAS. Recently, there has been increase in interest in use of essential oil and herbal medicine in managing RAU, one such natural product is virgin coconut oil. This study is aimed to determine the efficacy of VCO in management of signs and symptoms of minor recurrent aphthous ulcers. Methodology: 40 patients were included for the study who were randomly divided into two groups. 20 patients in Group A (VCO) and 20 patients in Group B (5%Amlexanox). Primary outcome measured were reduction in ulcer size (in mm) and pain (VAS 1-10). Results: There is high statistical significant difference within the groups in ulcer healing and pain reduction (p=0.00) on 3rd and 5th day. In group A significant reduction in pain was present on the 5th day (p=0.02) and no significant reduction in ulcer size (p=0.083). No adverse effects were reported in either group. Conclusion: VCO could be used as an effective and safe drug in managing the signs and symptoms of RAS. It is edible oil with no known adverse effects and could be a safe therapeutic alternative in children and pregnant women.
