Soap is a cleaning compound formed from the reaction between fatty acid compounds and alkaline bases. Various types of soap have been circulating in the market, one of which is liquid soap. Liquid soap that has antibacterial abilities is needed by many people. Moringa seed extract is one of the natural ingredients that can be used as an active ingredient in making liquid soap because it can inhibit bacterial growth. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in the addition of extracts and to obtain the best extract concentration treatment on physical, chemical, and organoleptic. The addition of moringa seed extract used was administered at 3%, 5%, and 7%. Data analysis was carried out by applying the ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) with a significant level of 5%. The De Garmo method was used to formulate the best liquid soap recommendation among various treatments. The results showed that the addition of moringa seed extract had a significant effect on the parameters of free alkali content, viscosity, specific gravity, antibacterial activity, and organoleptic. The best recommendation for liquid soap is a soap with a concentration of 7% with specific gravity characteristics of 1.066 g/ml, the viscosity of 1.983 cP, pH value of 10.53, foaming power of 5.63 cm, foam stability of 94.64%, and free alkali content of 0.023%, and the antibacterial ability against S. aureus bacteria (clear zone) was 19.17 mm.

The COVID-19 outbreak has overly emphasised the importance of handwashing with soap to reduce the spread of the virus. This study was conducted to formulate a liquid hand soap with neem oil and lemongrass essential oil as an natural antibacterial component. Three different concentrations of neem oil 5%; 10% and 15% and three different concentration of lemongrass essential oil (0.2%; 0.4%;0.6%) were formulated as liquid soap using coconut oil, castor oil and neem oil as its soap bases. The natural liquid soap was made by saponification reaction between oils and potassium hydroxide. The soap was evaluated for its pH value, density, foam stability, insoluble in alcohol content, free fatty acid and antibacterial activity. The results showed that the colour of the liquid soap was transparent with yellowish colored and had distinctive smell of neem oil. The pH values of the different formulated liquid hand soaps are within the accepted pH range of 4 - 10. The specific gravity was 1,083 – 1,088 g/ml. The foam stability range was 25.35% - 78.38%, respectively. The insoluble in alcohol content range were 0.14 – 0.4. The free caustic alkali range was  0.12 – 0.47.  The liquid hand soap can inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus. The inhibition zone diameter of liquid hand soap was 1.98- 2.61 cm. It was therefore proven that neem oil and lemongrass essensial oil is effective as an antibacterial component in the formulation of liquid hand soap.

Kemuning’s plantations in Karang Anyar Regency are famous for their lush tea plantations and good quality. Tea leaves contain several substances including flavonoids, 30- 40% polyphenols, caffeine, essential oils and tannins. The famous tea leaf polyphenols are catechins. Catechins have properties as antidiarrheal, antibacterial, especially against Staphyloccocus aureus bacteria, which is one of the gram-positive bacteria that cause infections in the skin. Based on this, tea leaf extract can be used as a natural supplement in the manufacture of transparent soap products. In this study tea leaf extract became one of the components in making transparent soap by adding tea leaf extract to formula 1 (0%), formula 2 (1.5%), formula 3 (3%) and formula 4 (4, 5%). Then transparent soap preparations were tested for organoleptic and quality quality including moisture and vaporizing soap content, amount of fatty acids, free alkali content and levels of unbunned fractions and anti-bacterial activity against the growth of Staphyloccocus aureus bacteria. Based on the results of the study, it was found that transparent 4 solid soap with 4.5% tea leaf extract content had the darkest color of solid soap, evaporated water and substance content, free alkali content, fatty acid, acidity level (pH), unbonded fraction level and the highest foam stability. Formula 4 solid soap also has the best inhibitory power against the growth of Staphyloccocus aureus bacteria.

This study aimed to determine the effect of various concentrations of zeolite as a buider agent in liquid detergent. Zeolite was synthesized from rice husk ash using solution to gel (sol-gel) method, followed by hydrothermal and then characterized by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The synthesized zeolite was then formulated into liquid detergent with sodium lauryl sulfate, glycerin, citric acid, colouring agent, parfume, and three concentrations of zeolite, i.e.:  15% (F1), 20% (F2), and 25% (F3). Liquid detergent was prepared by mixing process using stirrer. The characterizations of liquid detergents were including pH, viscosity, specific gravity, foaming power, foam stability, and detergency power. The XRD showed that the zeolite was type-A zeolite. Moreover, the characterization showed that zeolite with varying concentrations tend to influence in pH, viscosity, and detergency power but relatively similar in specific gravity, foaming power, and foam stability. The result indicated that the detergents with zeolite have better cleaning ability than the control (without builder) and the comparator detergents (with STPP builder). The higher the concentration of zeolite, the higher the detergency power. Therefore, F3 was recommended as formula of detergent with the best detergency power.

Used refined cooking oil can be used to make soap. An important factor in the manufacture of soap is the saponification reaction between bases (KOH) and fatty acids. The addition of citrus essential oil to the soap preparation can increase consumer acceptance. This study aims to determine the effect of KOH concentration on the characteristics of liquid soap and to determine the proper concentration of KOH to produce good quality of liquid soap. This research uses a factorial completely randomized design with one factor that is KOH concentration, consisting of three levels ie 25%, 30% and 35%. Characteristics of liquid soap observed were viscosity, foam height, pH, and free alkali content. The results showed that the concentration of KOH effect on the characteristics of  liquid  soap  produced. If  KOH concentration increases,  viscosity,  pH and alkali-free  alkali content of the liquid soap increased. The best KOH concentration is 25%.
