ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY OF DRIED STRAWBERRY JUICES (Fragaria vesca L.) EMULGEL PREPARATION USING CANDLENUT OIL AND IT’S DIFFUSION
Abstract: Strawberries
(Fragaria vesca L.) is a fruit that contains nutrients with many benefits and
used as an antioxidant because it contains phenolic, ascorbic acid,
pelargonidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-glucoside. In addition, strawberries
contain flavonoids, which have high antioxidant capacity. Double emulsion can
improve the stability of phenolic compounds from dried strawberry juice.
Primary emulsion is dispersed in a gel base (emulgel) and it is expected to
produce more stable and better preparation with the ability to release the
active ingredient topically. The production of double emulsion preparation (A /
M / A) using candlenut oil as the oil phase with high level of total flavonoid
and total anthocyanins of formula respectively - were 22.86% and 55.915%. The
total flavonoid in dried strawberry juice emulgel was able to pass the membrane
shed snake skin with higher flux value than the total flavonoid in the form of
emulsion type A / M.
