Abstract

The use of jernang fruit (Dragon's Blood) as an additional ingredient for making transparent solid soap for skin regeneration has been widely used. This research aims to determine the effect of jernang extract and NaOH used on the characteristics of the soap produced including the pH value, water content, free fatty acid value, free alkali value based on the requirements of SNI 06-3532-1994, as well as knowing the organoleptic figures and antioxidant activity. With the presence of transparent solid soap from jernang extract, it can optimize the use and use of jernang which is rarely processed in the surrounding environment and can improve the economy of the Simpang Keramat village area, Aceh Utara. Making transparent solid soap was carried out by varying the volume of jernang extract 2 ml, 4 ml, 6 ml, 8 ml, 10 ml with a volume of 30% NaOH of 20 ml, 25 ml, 30 ml, 35 ml and 40 ml.
