PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF HERBAL SOAP MADE FROM AVERRHOA BILIMBI LEAF AND FLOS LONICERAE

Malaysian herbs, Averrhoa Bilimbi, and Flos Lonicerae, are widely known in traditional Chinese medicine. Both are used as natural remedies for jaundice treatment in newborns. Formulating herbal bath soap by the saponification method is proposed because newborn babies are poor feeders. Today, a lot of chemicals are used in soap production. Users will have a wide range of issues due to chemicals like parabens and triclosan. As a result, soap is made from herbs without chemicals. This herbal soap uses two herbs, Averrhoa Bilimbi leaf and Flos Lonicerae. Paper journals examining these herbs’ physicochemical properties are scarce in Malaysia. After the herbal soap has been successfully created, it will be examined for its physicochemical properties. The antioxidant activity and total phenolic content (TPC), of Averrhoa Bilimbi leaf extract and Flos Lonicerae extract were all tested. The antibacterial activity, heavy metal and pH tests were also validated the suitability of this herbal soap for skin application. According to the findings, Averrhoa Bilimbi leaf extract had a TPC value of 24.49 mg GAE/g compared to 4.96 mg GAE/g for Flos Lonicerae extract. Averrhoa Bilimbi leaf required a slightly higher concentration of 0.0588 g/mL extract to inhibit 50% of the DPPH assay compared to Flos Lonicerae plant extract, which required 0.0315 g/mL. Since there was no evidence of any bacterial growth, the herbal soap was effective against all the tested bacterial strains. The heavy metal test showed the soap does not contain any lead, mercury or arsenic and exhibits a pH value which close to the range for suitable skin application.

TELANG FLOWER KOMBUCHA SOLID BATH SOAP AS A HALAL AND ANTIMICROBIAL PHARMACEUTICAL BIOTECHNOLOGY PRODUCT

Excellent health is part of having immunity which tends to be stable, where normal flora is the most important parameter in increasing the body's resistance. Normal flora that is not well controlled can also increase the body's immune system to become threatened so that disease and infection have the potential to attack each individual. Smelly armpits are a sign of disease or Staphylococcus hominis infection. Women's intimate organs experiencing vaginal discharge is a sign of disease or infection caused by Candida albicans. The solution that can be offered to inhibit the growth of these two microbes is to bathe using herbal soap that is environmentally friendly and antimicrobial, namely solid bath soap made from the active ingredient of telang flower kombucha. This research aims to produce environmentally friendly pharmaceutical biotechnology products in the form of solid bath soap formulations and preparations made from the active ingredient of telang flower kombucha. This research is a laboratory experiment by making a solid bath soap base without active substances and a solid bath soap made from the active ingredient of butterfly pea flower kombucha with sugar concentrations including 20%, 30% and 40%. This research has proven that solid bath soap with the active ingredient telang flower kombucha at a concentration of 40% is significantly different as a pharmaceutical biotechnology product in inhibiting the growth of the two test microbes, both bacteria that cause underarm odor and pathogenic fungi that cause vaginal discharge in women's intimate organs at concentrations of 20% and 30%. based on one-way ANOVA analysis with a P value <0.05. This research can be proven and concluded that telang flower kombucha solid bath soap at a concentration of 40% is an effective treatment as a pharmaceutical biotechnology product and as an antimicrobial for both bacteria that cause underarm odor and pathogenic fungi that cause vaginal discharge in women's intimate organs

Antiseptic paper soap is convenient because it is flexible, safe for the skin, easily foams, and relatively affordable. Measuring the ratio between the concentrations of NaOH, cooking oil, citronella oil, and aloe vera additives is needed to improve the quality of antiseptic paper soap. Testing the saponification rate, density, pH, water content, fatty acid (FA) level, and free alkali content is critical to determine the characteristics of antiseptic paper soap so that it meets the standards for solid bath soap according to SNI 3532-2021 which is closest to the characteristics of paper soap because SNI for paper soap is not yet available. The weight ratio of citronella oil to cooking oil used is 1:1, 1:2, and 1:3. The NaOH concentrations used were 30%, 40%, and 50% w/v. The natural additives used are 0%, 5%, and up to 10% of the total mass. The research results showed that saponification value of the antiseptic paper soap produced was 197.724 milligrams KOH/gram up to 206.138 milligrams KOH/gram, the pH of the antiseptic paper soap was 9.1-10.6, the water content value was 10.940%-23.863%, the alkali content value free is 0.044%-0.104%, total fatty acid (FA) content is 29.688%-45.734%. The best antiseptic paper soap is produced using 30% w/v NaOH with a weight ratio of citronella oil to cooking oil used of 1:1 and natural additives (aloe vera) 5% of the total mass.

Ideology in Advertisement: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Selected Nepali Advertisements

This paper explores the way ideology is embedded in the underlying structure of advertisements, applying Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as a theoretical tool focusing on the ideas of Michael Foucault and Norman Fairclough. Four advertisements telecasted in Nepal Television are selected for the analysis. They represent four different fields such as jewelry shop, bathing soap, food supplement and electric cable. Following qualitative research design, this study has used critical, analytical and interpretative method for analyzing the textual data. Critical analysis of these representative advertisements has led to the conclusion that mass media discourse is a fertile playground for ideological games. Keeping in mind the social structure of Nepalese society, they all in a united form impart patriarchal ideology to the audiences. This article proposes a solution to such biased representation. Language is being used as a means of imparting the patriarchal ideology and we should seek a solution from there. We should create critical linguistic awareness for the audience and empower them to resist all such misrepresentations. Resistance is essential for gender equality and only critical linguistic awareness can help create a just society.
