In day to day activity hands serves important role in accomplishing tasks, but the most important function that people forget while achieving task is sanitization of hands. It is the most important practice that is required in every sector while it may be food sector, pharma sector or corporate sector in order to prevent from spreading diseases caused due to pathogenic microbes which preferably includes viruses, bacteria, fungi and alike. The present research focus towards formulating a herbal sanitizer wherein an oregano herb possessing anti-bacterial activities and a baobab extract possessing anti-inflammatory properties is mixed with ethanol along with glycerin, wherein glycerin act as a humectant and emulsifying agent to aid in preparation of a anti-bacterial herbal sanitizer. Carbomer was used as a gelling agent. The prepared sanitizer is then subjected to characterization studies which includes pH, viscosity, anti-microbial analysis, anti-bacterial efficacy, anti-oxidant assay, stability, and spreadability. After analyzing the results it was found that, the sanitizer possessed specific potent activity against pathogenic bacterial growth but was not harmful to skin.

Daun pala (Myristica fragrans Houtt.) mengandung senyawa flavonoid, saponin dan tanin yang berpotensi sebagai antibakteri, sehingga dapat dimanfaatkan kedalam bentuk sediaan gel hand sanitizer. Persyaratan yang harus dipenuhi untuk sediaan gel salah satunya adalah sifat fisiknya. Gelling agent dan humektan merupakan faktor yang dapat mempengaruhi sifat fisik sediaan gel. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh variasi konsentrasi HPMC (Hidroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose) dan gliserin terhadap sifat fisik sediaan gel hand sanitizer ekstrak etanol daun pala. Gel hand sanitizer ini dibuat formulasi dengan variasi HPMC dan gliserin, yaitu formula 1 (HPMC 1% : gliserin 5%), formula 2 (HPMC 1,5% : gliserin 7,5%), formula 3 (HPMC 2%, gliserin 10%). Evaluasi yang dilakukan terhadap sediaan meliputi, uji homogenitas, uji organoleptik, uji pH, uji daya sebar, uji daya lekat. Berdasarkan hasil analisis menggunakan One Way Anova dengan program SPSS for Windows, menunjukan bahwa HPMC dan gliserin mempengaruhi parameter daya sebar dan daya lekat sediaan gel hand sanitizer ekstrak etanol daun pala (Myristica fragrans Houtt.).

Hand sanitizer is an antiseptic in gel form. The gel texture in hand sanitizers is caused by the carbomer which acts as a gelling agent. Therefore, this research was done to observe the effect of carbomer on the value of pH, viscosity, and microbial activity in hand sanitizers. As for testing pH using pH meters, testing viscosity was carried out using the viscometer method, while microbial activity was carried out using the Total Plate Number, Yeast Mold Number and microbial pathogen tests. Based on the data obtained, the carbomer greatly influences the increase in the viscosity of the hand sanitizer gel, the pH value was obtained at 6.0 - 7.06, while in the microbial activity test none of the microbes grew in each medium. Therefore, it can be concluded that the hand sanitizer with code P3 is the best sample

This research aims to study the effectiveness of betel leaf extract as a substitute for antibacterial active ingredients in hand sanitizer. Betel leaf extract is obtained by maceration of betel leaves for 3x24 hours in 70% alcohol solution. The alcohol content in the betel leaf extract from maceration was evaporated in the vacuum evaporator (T = 60<sup>o</sup>C) until the remaining extract volume was around 15%. This extract is used as an active antibacterial ingredient in making hand sanitizer gel. The basic chemicals of making gels such as carbomer (gelling agent), propylene glycol (stabilizer), glycerin, nipagin and triethanolamine / TEA (alkalizing agent) are mixed and stirred in distilled water (about 85 ml) with compositions of 0.3 g, 4 ml, 3 ml, 0.02 g and 0, 2 ml, respectively. The volume of extract added in the gel was varied 8, 10, and 12 ml. Finally, the volume of hand sanitizer was added distilled water to adjust its volume 100 ml. The effectiveness and quality of this hand sanitizer were analyzed its active compounds, gel acidity (pH), organoleptic, the inhibitory ability of bacterial growth, and gel dispersion. <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> was chosen as the bacteria tested because it found in the hands.  The presence of saponin, tannins, and flavonoids is detected qualitatively in the product. The results showed that adding 12 ml extract of betel leaf (sample III) has the best performance in the studied range of extract concentration (8-12 ml).  Sample III has the acidity (pH) and the inhibitory zone about 5 and 9.78 mm<sup>2</sup>, respectively. This inhibitory area is higher than that of the commercial hand sanitizer, which has an area of 2.98 mm<sup>2</sup>. However, the spreadability of this hand sanitizer is slightly lower than that of the commercial one (about 167% and 180%). Organoleptic tests depict that this product is acceptable in the community because it does not irritate in use. This product is safer as hand sanitizer than the similar products that use alcohol as an active ingredient.

Background: Hand sanitizers contain 62% alcohol, softener and moisturizer. High alcohol content is able to irritate and make hands dry. A suitable moisturizer is needed for this preparation. Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the physical quality of gel hand sanitizer formulation of Ocimum tenuiflorum with CMC-Na as a gelling agent at a concentration of 0.5% and 1% CMC-Na. Methods: Data were collected at week-0,1,2,3,4, and replication is performed three times at each concentration of each measurement. The test results of the spread and adhesion data analysis using SPSS with a 95% confidence level. Results: Dispersive power and adhesion showed no significant difference (p <0.05) at week 0 and week 4 means second-hand sanitizer gel formulation concentration is not stable. Gel hand sanitizer leaves of Tulasi (Ocimum tenuiflorum) at a concentration of 1% CMC-Na stable from week 0 to week 3, while the concentration of 0.5% CMC-Na change at week 2. Gel hand sanitizer leaves of Tulasi (Ocimum tenuiflorum) with a gelling agent CMC-Na should need to be titrated. Conclusion: Gel hand sanitizer leaves of Tulasi (Ocimum tenuiflorum) that use concentrations of 1% CMC-Na as a gelling agent have a physical quality that is more stable than the organoleptic test concentration of 0.5% CMC-Na.

Indonesia is the country with the largest level of Muslim population in the world. Guarantees for the safety and protection of consumers in the food sector must be considered. One of the parameters used in product halal is total microbial analysis. The sample used was processed tuna which is adulterated with lard (1: 1). The research method uses Factorial Completely Randomized Design method which consists of two factors, Factor I: Solvent Concentration (K) consists of 4 levels, namely: K1 = 20%, K2 = 30%, K3 = 40%, K4 = 50%, Factors II: Maseration Time (W) consists of 4 levels : W1 = 06 Hours, W2 = 12 Hours, W3 = 18 Hours, and W4 = 24 Hours. The results showed that the n-hexane concentration had a very significant effect (p <0.01) on the total microbial parameters. The highest total microbes were in the 50% (K4) concentration of 4,337 log CFU / ml (2.2x104 CFU / ml) and the lowest value was in the treatment concentration of 20% (K1) which was 4,216 log CFU / ml (1.7x104 CFU / ml). The average microbial total value in the treatment of solvent concentration (K) obtained was 2.0x104 CFU / ml. The treatment of maceration time also gave a very significant effect (p <0.01) on the total microbial parameters. The highest total microbial was 24 hours treatment = 4,410 log CFU / ml (2,6x104 CFU / ml) and the lowest value was at 6 hours treatment which was 4,173 log CFU / ml (1.5x104 CFU / ml). Total microbial analysis provides information on adulteration of lard in processed food products in support of halal certification
