Eco-enzyme as disinfectant: a systematic literature review

Abstract

COVID-19 increases the awareness of cleanliness and sanitation in society. Trends in launching sanitizer and disinfectant products have risen significantly to meet customer demand. However, the existing commercial sanitizer products are mostly chemical-based and may cause adverse effects. Therefore, eco- enzyme is a perfect bio-waste utilization for nonchemical-based sanitization products. The authors investigated eco-enzymes' effectiveness in an aerosol spray from fruit waste for a pleasant natural disinfectant. This review aimed to compile results from previous studies on fruit waste by systematically reviewing empirical studies on household waste practices to develop an eco-enzyme following the PRISMA guidelines. A digital search in five databases from Google Scholar, PubMed, Garuda, Sinta, and Open Alex resulted in 24 relevant journals, considering keywords such as eco-enzyme, disinfectant, and organic waste. The mapping results show that eco-enzyme is feasible and economical for disinfecting and sanitizing surfaces due to its antimicrobial activity. The presence of acetic acids and enzymes (i.e., lipases and amylases) can inhibit specific strains of microorganisms, namely <em>Escherichia coli</em> and <em>Enterococcus</em> sp.

EDUKASI ECO ENZYME DARI LIMBAH BUAH DAN SAYUR MENJADI SABUN CAIR CUCI TANGAN SEBAGAI UPAYA MENCIPTAKAN EKONOMI MASYARAKAT PRODUKTIF DALAM MENDUKUNG SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGs) DI KELURAHAN KETINTANG 4 SURABAYA

“…Sedangkan pada kegiatan ini zat aktif yang digunnakan dari bahan alam yaitu eco enzyme memiliki kelebihan yaitu harga murah, aman, dan tidak menimbulkan iritasi, sehingga kegiatan ini dapat diterapkan secara berkelanjutan untuk meningkatkan pendapatan anak karang taruna. Sabun cair cuci ini memiliki peran sebagai antibakteri (Das et al, 2024;Hendry et al, 2023;Permatananda et al, 2023;Vidalia et al, 2023) dalam upaya mengurangi penyebaran mikroorganisme. Berikut Grafik hasil kepuasan setelah peserta mengikuti kegiatan pengmas.…”

“…Eco-enzyme is a fermented organic material that is easy to produce and has various advantages. Eco-enzyme has been widely reported to have benefits as liquid organic fertilizer and disinfectant (Hasanah et al, 2020;Fadlilla et al, 2023;Vidalia et al, 2023). Fadlilla et al (2023) reported that 1 mL L -1 eco enzyme from fruit and vegetable waste contains 0.01% N, 0.08 ppm P, 0.08 ppm K, and 0.01% C-organic.…”
