Based on empirical use and scientific studies, pineapple peel extract has antiparamphistomiasis activity. Pineapple peel has the potential to be developed as a veterinary dosage form in the form of jamu ternak. The aim of the study is to evaluate the physical characteristics of pineapple peel powder compared to standard parameters. The test consists of the organoleptic test, pH test, visual uniformity, weight uniformity, water content determination, flowability, and degree of fineness. The prepared pineapple peel juice was freeze-dried to obtain a powder. The result revealed that the yield of freeze-drying pineapple powder was 15,30%. The pineapple peel powder’s organoleptic properties were as follows: Yellow colour, distinctive aroma of pineapple, and sour taste, the value of pH test is 4,376±0,03, the degree of fineness of the powder is classified as fine, the average of weight uniformity is 0,398±0,00374, and water content is 4,547%±0,008. According to compressibility Index and Hausner ratio was confirming good flow properties. The study suggests that pineapple peel powder could be developed as an ethnoveterinary preparation.  Keywords: Antiparamphistomiasis; Livestock’s jamu; Physicochemical evaluation; Pineapple peel powder   Abstrak  Ekstrak air kulit nanas berkhasiat sebagai antiparamphistomiasis berdasarkan penggunaan secara empiris dan studi saintifik. Berdasarkan potensi tersebut perlu dikembangkan sediaan obat hewan yang terstandar. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengevaluasi sifat fisik serbuk ekstrak kulit nanas sebagai jamu ternak antiparamphistomiasis berdasarkan parameter standar. Uji yang dilakukan berupa uji organoleptik, pH, derajat halus, keseragaman bobot, kadar air, keseragaman tampilan dan sifat alir. Serbuk kulit nanas diperoleh dengan metode kering beku. Hasil rendemen serbuk sebesar 15,30%. Serbuk kulit nanas memiliki warna kuning pucat, bau harum aromatik dan rasa mais sedikit kecut khas nanas. pH sediaan serbuk yaitu 4,376±0,03, derajat halus serbuk tergolong halus, bobot serbuk sebesar 0,398g±0,00374, kadar air 4,547%±0,008, serbuk seragam dengan sifat alir sangat baik. berdasarkan hasil yang diperoleh serbuk kulit nanas memiliki kriteria sediaan serbuk yang baik berdasarkan parameter evlausi sediaan, oleh karena itu berpotensi dikembangkan sebagai sediaan etnoveteriner.  Kata kunci: Antiparamphistomiasis; Evaluasi sediaan; Jamu ternak; Serbuk kulit nanas

COVID-19 pandemic condition presents obstacles for lecturers and students of the Pharmacy Study Program in all aspects of life, including the educational aspect. One of the obstacles faced is the limitations of lecturers and students of Pharmacy in conducting field and laboratory research, so that it can have an impact on delays in the implementation of the tridharma. Literature review can be an option in overcoming these obstacles. This community service aims to improve targeting capabilities and design a literature review study as an alternative research solution during a pandemic. The method used in this activity is in the form of delivering material and guided discussions through webinars with the zoom meeting platform and YouTube Livestreaming on the Pharmacy account of the University of Mataram. The webinar is divided into 2 sessions, namely a material presentation session and a clinical session for writing scientific articles with experts. A total of 77 participants attended the activity consisting of lecturers from health groups and pharmacy students. The enthusiasm of the participants was quite high as evidenced by a number of questions submitted in the discussion session. Participants' responses to the activities ranged from 4.2 to 4.7 which indicated that the event was going well with an assessment using a Likert scale from 1 to 5. The components of the assessment included time suitability, material suitability, participants' understanding of the material, moderator behavior, benefits of the event for participants and participant's opinion on the event. The ability of community service participants increases in designing literature studies through the output of articles that will be submitted in reputable journals.

Indonesian people still favor the use of traditional medicine because they believe its side effects are lower than synthetic drugs. One of the plants that can be used in traditional medicine is Cyclea barbata L. Miers, or green grass jelly. This study aimed to explain and summarize the traditional use, phytochemical content, and pharmacological activity of C. barbata. All information on C. barbata was collected from various electronic databases (Google Scholar, Science Direct, and PubMed) using important and related keywords. Secondary metabolites found in stems, roots, and leaves are alkaloids and flavonoids. The pharmacological activities of C. barbata include antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-plasmodial, immunomodulator, Alzheimer, anti-inflammatory, anti-cholesterol, and antiulcer. Although C. barbata has been used empirically, further research is still needed to ensure the effectiveness and safety of this plant.
