“…Bromhidrosis is a condition where a person's body odor is More excessive due to the secretion of apocrine sweat glands located in the armpits, scalp, soles of the feet, between the fingers and genitals. In this condition, the skin becomes wet and sticky and produces an unpleasant odor as a result of degradation of apocrine gland products by skin microbes (2). Some bacteria that cause infections that play a role in the process of rotting the apocrine glands resulting in smelly feet include Staphylococcus epidermidis, Corynebacterium acne, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus phyogenesis (1).…”

Background : Sungkai is one of the medicinal plants used by the Suku Anak Dalam Tribe in Jambi to treat infectious diseases. Sungkai leaves contain secondary metabolites including alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, steroids and tannins. Tannins and terpenoids are metabolites that have potential as antifungal , antibacterial and antiviral so they can be used in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Some bacterial infections can cause foot odor which can reduce a person's self-confidence. The aim of this research was to test Sungkai leaf extract which was formulated in foot spray dosage form to treat bacteria that cause foot odor, namely Staphylococcus epidermidis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Method : This research begins with the extraction stage of Sungkai leaves using the maceration method using 96% ethanol, then the resulting extract is continued with phytochemical screening testing, formulating the foot spray, and testing the antibacterial activity of foot spray. Antibacterial testing using by disc diffusion method, preparation of foot spray formulation using several series concentrations of Sungkai leaf extract there are 15% (F1), 20% (F2), and 25% (F3), and than followed by evaluation of foot spray formula includes organoleptic tests, pH tests , stability tests , irritation tests and liking tests. Results : Antibacterial activity of foot spray for both bacteria is in the medium category with average values of 7.29 and 7.11. The statistical test results at a p value of 0.05 show a significant difference between F0, FP, and F1. Conclusion : Based on the research that has been carried out, it can be concluded that foot preparation spray from Sungkai leaf extract is effective as an antibacterial especially for (F3) which contain an extract concentration of 25%. Keywords :Extract, sungkai leaves, foot spray , Peronema canescensJack, Pseudomonas aeruginosa And Staphylococcus epidermidis .

Background: To confirm the suspicion of scabies, dermatologists have one pathognomonic sign, “the tunnel” through which Sarcoptes scabiei digs into the epidermis. Light microscopy is considered the most reliable procedure, but it is time-consuming and operator-dependent. Recently, dermoscopy has greatly improved the chances of recognizing mite in situ, but it is still linked to the examiner’s experience and to the magnification capability of the device used. Methods: This article, based on a case-series study, describes a novel diagnostic path, which uses an ultraviolet LED source at 365 nm and a digital camera for the evaluation of lesions that raise the suspicion of scabies. Results: The gallery emits a naked-eye-visible wavy bluish-white linear luminescence, better than that of any standard lighting. UVA light is also able to identify Sarcoptes scabiei as a white or green point-shaped area. This sign can only be appreciated by enlarging its picture to full frame on a common PC monitor. Conclusions: Ultraviolet light (365 nm) seems to offer help in the diagnosis of scabies because it saves time compared with light microscopy and because it does not require contact with the patient’s skin, as in dermoscopy. Although examiner experience remains an important factor, it is easily compensated by procedural simplicity, the cost of the devices and, especially, by the clarity of the results, even in non-specific lesions.

Background: Scabies is a disease caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. In Indonesia, scabies ranks third out of the 12 most common skin diseases. In terms of disease screening, direct visualization of dermatitis from mites and microscopy of skin scrapings is less sensitive. PCR and dermoscopy examinations have a high sensitivity value to Sarcoptes mites. Aims: This study aims to identify Sarcoptes scabiei mites between clinical symptoms and supporting examinations, namely PCR and dermoscopy methods. Methods: This research is a cross-sectional study, with descriptive analytics. The number of samples of 50 people who met the inclusion criteria was examined by microscopic examination, dermoscopy, and PCR. We state it to be positive if we found scabies mites or their eggs on microscopy, delta wing sign, or jet wet contrail on dermoscopy and there is a 135bp DNA band on PCR. Results: 50 samples diagnosed with scabies based on cardinal sign of scabies, gender were 80% male and 20% female with an average age of 14 years. Based on the location of the rash, the most rashes were between the fingers and toes, each 26% and the least on the head as much as 2%. Based examination tools, no Sarcoptes scabiei mites were found through microscopic and dermoscopic examination, while the PCR examination found 12 positive samples of scabies. Conclusion: PCR examination is very sensitive and specific even in very small quantities, with the fore primer SSUDF and the reverse primer SSUDR. Further research is needed to assess the sensitivity and specificity of dermoscopy and PCR in diagnosing scabies.
