ABSTRACT The nanoparticle system encapsulates and protects flavonoids of suji leaves from photolysis and oxidation instability. Chitosan is a biocompatible, biodegradable and non-toxic nanoparticles forming polymer. Ultrasonication is a materials mixing technique under high vibration energy. The ultrasonication time affects the particle size. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the ultrasonication time on physical characteristics of chitosan nanoparticles of suji (Pleomele angustifolia) leaf ethanol extract and its physical stability after cycling test. Ethanol extract of suji leaves (EEDS) was obtained by maceration using 70% ethanol. Chitosan EEDS nanoparticles were made under ionic gelation method using an ultrasonication time of 3 minutes (FI), 6 minutes (FII), and 9 minutes (FIII). The physical characterization of nanoparticles includes particle size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential. Chitosan EEDS nanoparticles with the best physical characteristics (FIII) were tested for stability using cycling test method. The data obtained were analyzed using the Anova statistical method with a 95% confidence level. The size of EEDS chitosan nanoparticles (nm) was significantly different in all formulas, FI (374.47), FII (288.43), and FIII (233.37). The polydispersity index of FI (0.38) and FIII (0.65) were significantly different, while FII (0.41) was not significantly different. The zeta potential (mV) FI (51.70), FII (46.10), and FIII (48.60) were not significantly different in all formulas. The physical characteristics of Formula III after Cycling Test showed a particle size of 455.0 nm, a polydispersity index of 0.174, and a zeta potential of 20.1 mV.

The use of traditional medicines is an alternative treatment which is considered safer in terms of side effects and toxicity. One of the herbal plants that have properties that can reduce blood pressure is bay leaf (Syzigium polyanthum) because it contains essential oils (citral, eugenol), tannin, and flavonoids. Ethanol extract of bay leaves (Syzigium polyanthum) with antihypertensive potential needs to be made into dosage forms. This study aimed to determine the optimal formula of the preparation of bay leaf (Syzigium polyanthum) nanoparticles tablet with variations in the concentration of Na alginate and Avicel PH 102. Salam leaf extract was made using maceration method using  ethanol 96%, followed by evaporation until thick extract was formed. Colloidal nanoparticles were prepared by mixing bay leaf extract into  technical ethanol 96% and aquadest, chitosan solution in acetic acid and NaTTP solution. Further, it was measured using PSA (Particle Size Analyzer) to determine the particle size. Tablets were prepared using 4 formulas with variations in the concentration of sodium alginate and avicel PH 102 using the direct pressing method. The results of this study indicate that variations in the concentration of Na alginate and Avicel PH 102 affect the physical properties of tablets. The addition of Avicel PH 102 can increase the hardness and disintegration time of the tablet. While the addition of Na alginate can increase the fragility of tablets. Based on the evaluation results, the optimum formulation of tablet formulas is formula 4.

Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative disease of the joints that usually treated by NSAID drugs in the long term leading to cardiovascular and gastrointestinal disorders. Glucosamine is a precursor in the formation of progression of joint which have not a significantly side effect. The problem in glucosamine administration occured when it is administered through the oral route resulting in first pass metabolism, while when it is administered via intavena route resulting in insulin resistance. Those problems can be solved by developing glucosamine into nanoglucosamine in order to increase the enzymatic stability which will protect the active ingredient from diminishing by the first pass effect hence the dose can be reduced, consequenlty it will reduce the insulin resistance, and increase the permeation. In this study, the nanoparticles of glucosamine with chitosan polymer and crosslinker alginate was prepared by the ionic gelation method with the principle of continued cross forming polyelectrolyte complexes. This study started from preformulation such as solubility and identify study by FTIR, then the formulations of chitosan: glucosamine: alginate = 5:1:1 (volume ratio) with the variation of concentration in the FI (chitosan: glucosamine: alginate = 0.08 %: 0.1%: 0.08%) and FII (chitosan: glucosamine: alginate = 0.1%: 0.1%: 0.08%). Results of nanoparticle characterization by particle size analyzer in the FI showed the better formula indicating a foggy coloid, no precipitation, the pH was 2.90±0.05, and the percent transmittance was  99.35%. The distribution of particle size, polydispersity index, and zeta potential for the formula I were 76.0 ± 21.8 nm; 0.300; and -0.30 mV, respectively. It could be concluded that the nanoparticle system of glucosamine can be better prepared from the 0.08% of chitosan, 0.1% of glucosamine and 0.08% of alginate.Keywords: alginate, chitosan, ionic gelation method, glucosamine nanoparticle
