PREPARASI NANOPARTIKEL KITOSAN-TPP/ EKSTRAK ETANOL DAGING BUAH MAHKOTA DEWA (Phaleriamacrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl) DENGAN METODE GELASI IONIK
Abstract: Mahkota dewa (Phaleria
macrocarpa (Scheff) Boerl) is one of the plants frequently used as anticancer.
But mahkota dewa extract have a high toxicity. One of certain effort that could
reduces the toxic effect of medicine is nanoparticle decivery. The aims of this
study were to make nanoparticle from chitosan-mahkota dewa extract using TPP as
a cross linker and to determine it's particle size, zeta potential, loading
capacity and loading efficiency. Chitosan nanoparticles extract of Phaleria
macrocarpa fruits with TPP as cross linker by ionic gelation method. Chitosan
was dissolved in acetic buffer solution at pH 4 with various concentrations
(0.045 and 0.09 % b/v), meanwhile tripolyphosphate (0.009 dan 0.018 % b/v) with
volume compare (5 : 1). The characterizations of chitosan nanoparticles of
extract were determined by measure its particle size, zeta potential, loading
capacity, and determining efficiency value nanoparticle process formed. The
results showed that the most stable extract were on concentration 0.68 and 0.9
mg/ml (kitosan 0.09 % b/v, TPP 0.018 % b/v) with 350 rpm stirring speed. The
average of nanoparticle size were 190.9 and 162.87 nm. The zeta potential were
48.5 mV and 60.86 mV, the loading capacity were 2.96 and 5.33 %, than the
loading efficiency were 35.75 and 45.26 %. Preparation of chitosan-extract of
mahkota dewa fruits by ionic gelation method can produced nanoparticles and has
a short range of size distribution, grade of uniformity and good stability.
