"Latar Belakang: Bahan irigasi endodontik yang sering digunakan saat ini memiliki sifat toksik terhadap sel punca yang berperan penting pada perawatan endodontik regeneratif. Sehingga dibutuhkan pemilihan bahan irigasi alami yang tidak toksik, seperti ekstrak jeruk purut yang juga memiliki efek antibakteri terhadap bakteri gram positif. Tujuan: Mendapatkan perbandingan sitotoksisitas larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut berbagai konsentrasi pada waktu observasi 24 jam terhadap hDPSCs. Metode: HDPSCs diisolasi dari gigi molar tiga, diberikan media perlakuan berupa larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut dengan konsentrasi 2,5%, 5%, 10% dan 20%, NaOCl 2,5% dan DMEM sebagai kontrol. Pengamatan proliferasi hDPSCs dengan uji MTT. Hasil dibaca dengan microplate reader dengan panjang gelombang 570 nm. Nilai absorbansi larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut 2,5%, 5%, 10%, 20% dan NaOCl 2,5% dihitung persentasinya dibandingkan dengan nilai absobansi kelompok kontrol menggunakan rumus perhitungan viabilitas sel. Hasil: Nilai rerata viabilitas sel kelompok larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut diatas 90%, menandakan larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut tidak toksik terhadap hDPSCs. Kesimpulan: Larutan ekstrak daun jeruk purut tidak memiliki efek sitotoksisitas terhadap hDPSCs, dengan nilai viabilitas sel paling tinggi pada konsentrasi 20%."

"During their storage, the traditional ready-to-eat food, such as sticky rice cake, are easily contaminated by spoilage pathogens. Hence, this study aims to evaluate the effect of Citrus hystrix extract in reducing spoilage pathogens in sticky rice cake during storage. The experimental sticky rice cake was prepared and formulated with Citrus hystrix extract at varied level of concentrations of 0.65%, 1.26% and 1.82% (w/w). Treated samples were stored at room temperature for 28 days and evaluated periodically for their microbial activity (total plate count), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and sensory analysis. For its antifungal activity, the Citrus hystrix extract was also compared against Penicillium sp. and Aspergillus nidulans prior to formulation. Results exhibited a significant advantage of the added extracts to the sticky rice cake. All extract levels effectively eliminated the spoilage microorganism and significantly lowered the TBARS values. The physico-chemical properties of sticky rice cake including pH, water activity, and moisture content were equal among all the formulated samples and slightly different at 1.82% (w/w) extract level. Moreover, the addition of Citrus hystrix extract up to 1.82% did not affect the acceptability sensory attributes of the sticky rice cake as compared to the control which has no Citrus hystrix extracts (p > 0.05)."

"Latar Belakang: Kanker hati merupakan kanker dengan tingkat prevalensi yang tinggi baik secara global maupun nasional. Kanker hati juga menempati peringkat kelima tertinggi penyebab mortalitas di Indonesia. Tatalaksana kanker hati seperti pembedahan, transplantasi hati, ablasi termal, dan kemoterapi memiliki banyak efek samping dan memerlukan biaya yang mahal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui potensi daun jeruk purut (Citrus hystrix DC) sebagai antioksidan dan agen sitotoksik terhadap sel kanker hati HepG2. Metode: Maserasi dan ekstraksi daun jeruk purut dilakukan menggunakan pelarut polar (etanol), semipolar (etil asetat), dan non polar (n-heksana). Uji fitokimia dan kromatografi lapis tipis (KLT) dilakukan untuk mengetahui kandungan fitokimia ekstrak daun jeruk purut. Uji aktivitas antioksidan ekstrak daun jeruk purut dilakukan dengan metode DPPH dan uji aktivitas sitotoksik terhadap sel kanker hati HepG2 menggunakan metode MTT. Hasil: Ketiga jenis ekstrak mengandung flavonoid, alkaloid, dan triterpenoid, sedangkan senyawa tannin dan glikosida hanya ditemukan pada ekstrak etanol dan etil asetat. Uji KLT menunjukkan bahwa terdapat 14 komponen senyawa pada ekstrak etanol, 12 senyawa pada ekstrak etil asetat, dan 9 senyawa pada ekstrak heksana. Aktivitas antioksidan pada ekstrak etanol tergolong aktif (IC50 = 68,11 µg/mL), sedangkan pada ekstrak etil asetat tergolong sedang (IC50 = 163,01 µg/mL) dan tidak aktif pada ekstrak heksana. Efek sitotoksisitas terhadap sel HepG2 pada ekstrak heksana tergolong aktif (IC50 = 19,93 µg/mL), sedangkan pada ekstrak etil asetat (IC50 = 43,54 µg/mL) dan ekstrak etanol (IC50 = 57,33 µg/mL) tergolong sedang. Kesimpulan: Ekstrak daun jeruk purut berpotensi untuk dikembangkan menjadi antioksidan alami dan terapi alternatif untuk pengobatan kanker hati.

Introduction: Liver cancer is a cancer with a high prevalence rate both globally and nationally. Liver cancer is also ranked fourth as the highest cause of mortality in Indonesia. Liver cancer management such as surgery, liver transplantation, thermal ablation, and chemotherapy have many side effects and are expensive. This research is aimed to evaluate the kaffir lime leaves (Citrus hystrix DC) as an antioxidant and cytotoxic agent against HepG2 liver cancer cells. Method: Maceration and extract of kaffir lime leaves were carried out using polar solvents (ethanol), semipolar (ethyl acetate), and non-polar (n-hexane). Phytochemical tests and thin layer chromatography (TLC) were carried out to determine the phytochemical content of kaffir lime leaf extract. The antioxidant activity test of kaffir lime leaf extract was carried out using the DPPH method and the cytotoxic activity test against HepG2 liver cancer cells using the MTT method. Results: All three types of extracts contain flavonoids, alkaloids, and triterpenoids, while tannin and glycoside compounds were only found in the ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts. TLC test showed that there were 14 compound components in the ethanol extract, 12 compounds in the ethyl acetate extract, and 9 compounds in the hexane extract. The antioxidant activity in the ethanol extract was classified as active (IC50 = 68.11 µg/mL), while in the ethyl acetate extract was classified as moderate (IC50 = 163.01 µg/mL) and inactive in the hexane extract. The cytotoxic effect on HepG2 cells in the hexane extract was classified as active (IC50 = 19.93 µg/mL), while in the ethyl acetate extract (IC50 = 43.54 µg/mL) and ethanol extract (IC50 = 57.33 µg/mL) were classified as moderate. Conclusion: Kaffir lime leaf extract has the potential to be developed into a natural antioxidant and alternative therapy for the treatment of liver cancer."
