Bagi seorang muslim, status halal suatu produk obat dan eksipien yang digunakan adalah hal mutlak harus dipenuhi. Produk obat halal tersebut harus bebas dari kandungan babi dan alkohol baik dari bahan dasarnya maupun proses pembuatannya. Pentingnya metode untuk mendeteksi kandungan babi dan alkohol untuk memastikan suatu produk obat bebas dari kandungan babi dan alkohol menjadi latar belakang review artikel ini. Metode review artikel ini adalah mengumpulkan literatur yang berkaitan dengan metode deteksi kandungan babi dan alkohol/etanol dan membuat ringkasan dari literatur-literatur tersebut. Hasil review menunjukkan bahwa metode deteksi yang dapat digunakan yaitu metode analisis PDK (Pork Detection Kit) untuk mendeteksi protein babi, metode PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) untuk mendeteksi DNA babi dan metode GC (Gas Chromatography) atau HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) untuk mendeteksi residu alkohol/etanol.Kata Kunci: Halal, Babi, Alkohol, Eksipien Farmasi, Produk Obat
Objective: Previous research has proven that the water fraction of the Angiopteris evecta root has hair growth activities. The objective of this research was to determine the formula of gel and hair tonic preparations of pakis munding (Angiopteris evecta L.) which met the requirements as a pharmaceutical preparation, good and effective in stimulating hair growth.
Methods: Formulation of hair tonic and gel preparations were made using 7.5, 10.0, and 12.5 % of A. Evecta root water extracts as active compounds. The formulation of the two preparations was based on the standard formulation method. The evaluation and formulation test were carried out by organoleptic examination and homogeneity, pH, viscosity, scattering power test, stability test, and safety test based on the standard preparations including Indonesian pharmacopeia. Statistical tests were carried out on both formulas against rabbits based on the modification of the Tanaka method. Comparison of statistics on both formulas was also carried out.
Results: It was found both formulas fulfill standard requirements as pharmaceutical preparations. Statistically, the best activity in hair tonic preparations was at a concentration of 12.5% and for gels at a concentration of 10.0% ethanol extract seen from measurements of hair length. Statistically, using the Independent T-test to find out the significant differences in the average hair length on hair tonic and gel, it was found there was no significant difference between the two formulas. It was found that the best formula for hair tonic and gel was in the addition of 10.0% and 12.5% extracts, respectively.
Conclusion: The results obtained in this research work clearly indicated that both hair tonic and gel formulas of A. evecta root water extract may be used as stimulating hair growth.
