Why the Coffee Powder is the Best Topical Wound Dressing?

Abstract

The coffee powder has inherent capabilities as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial. It is a topical wound dressing for acute and chronic wounds, encouraging results different from the wound dressing known today. It is named the new paradigm of wound management. The study of coffee powder since 2003 as a topical wound dressing has created an understanding condemn to disturb the cells in the wound bed. A thin layer of coffee powder should stay in place to ensure safety, covering superficial wound cells’ growth. The remained thin layer of coffee powder has created minimum detached wound cells. Wound healing provides effectiveness for acute and chronic wounds resulted in low cost, easy to get, acceptable scar, non-traumatic, pleasant scent, and not scary to the patients. The utilization of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial capacities anticipates the injury of the new growth of epithelial cells at the wound bed. It makes better cell proliferation, proper scar formation and safe naturally. Its simplicity in wound management procedures helps improve public health efforts. Hence, it suggested that the coffee powder has the capabilities of the best topical wound dressing.

Uji Daya Hambat Ekstrak Air Biji Kopi Arabika pada Kultur Bakteri MRSA

“…Ekstrak air kopi Arabika juga memiliki efek antibakteri yang terutama aktif terhadap S. epidermidis, E. faecalis dan S. aureus. (17) Berdasarkan penelitian oleh Hendro, ekstrak air kopi dengan kafein sudah terbukti memiliki zona inhibisi lebih besar daripada kopi tanpa kafein terhadap bakteri MRSA (18). Zona inhibisi ekstrak air kopi dengan kafein dalam konsentrasi 50% menunjukkan diameter sebesar 22-26 mm melebihi vankomisin yang memiliki diameter 22 mm (18).…”

Zona inhibisi ekstrak air kopi dengan kafein dalam konsentrasi 50% menunjukkan diameter sebesar 22-26 mm melebihi vankomisin yang memiliki diameter 22 mm (18). Dalam penelitian uji kadar konsentrasi kadar hambat minimum (KHM) oleh Amwalia dkk, ekstrak air kopi baru menunjukkan terjadinya penurunan jumlah bakteri MRSA pada konsentrasi 50% ke atas (19).…”

“…Vankomisin mengikat bagian D-Ala-D-Ala yang dapat mencegah transpeptidase cross-linking rantai peptidoglikan sehingga menghambat formasi dinding sel bakteri MRSA (20). Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Hendro, vankomisin dijadikan sebagai kontrol positif pada peneltian terhadap bakteri MRSA menunjukkan diameter zona inhibisi 22 mm (18). Penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Gede dkk, juga menunjukkan vankomisin sebagai kontrol positif memiliki rata-rata diameter zona hambat pada kultur bakteri MRSA 18-19 mm (21).…”

Valorization of Coffee Residue Waste: Mini Review

“…Coffee residues extracts have been investigated for their wound healing properties. Some studies suggest that these extracts can help in promoting cell proliferation, collagen synthesis, and tissue regeneration, which are essential processes for wound healing due to the content of coffee grounds in caffeine (Yuwono Ojeh, et al [21,22]).…”
