Abstrak
Senggani adalah tanaman tradisional Asia yang umum digunakan sebagai pengobatan alternatif, khususnya di Indonesia. Daun tanaman senggani mengandung metabolit sekunder, termasuk tanin, alkaloid, flavonoid, dan saponin. Di antara metabolit tersebut, tanin dan flavonoid diyakini memiliki sifat antibakteri. Studi ini menyelidiki apakah gel pembersih wajah yang terbuat dari ekstrak etanol daun senggani memiliki sifat yang stabil dan memenuhi standar yang ditetapkan. Selain itu, studi ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi aktivitas antibakterinya terhadap Cutibacterium acnes, bakteri penyebab jerawat. Metode maserasi menggunakan pelarut 70% digunakan untuk menyiapkan ekstrak etanol dari daun senggani. Ekstrak ini kemudian diformulasikan menjadi gel pembersih wajah menggunakan polimer karbopol pada konsentrasi 5%, 7,5%, dan 10%, diikuti dengan pengujian untuk menilai aktivitas antibakterinya. Aktivitas antibakteri ditentukan menggunakan metode difusi cakram pada konsentrasi yang sama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa diameter zona inhibisi bakteri adalah 9,93 mm pada konsentrasi 5%, 11,66 mm pada 7,5%, dan 13,93 mm pada 10%. Sediaan gel ekstrak etanol daun senggani menunjukkan sifat yang stabil, dengan evaluasi stabilitas fisik yang mengonfirmasi bahwa produk ini sesuai dengan standar kualitas sabun cuci muka sebagaimana ditetapkan oleh peraturan nasional Indonesia. Lebih lanjut, gel ekstrak etanol daun senggani efektif menghambat pertumbuhan Cutibacterium acnes, menunjukkan potensinya sebagai sabun cuci muka yang efektif.
