ABSTRACT
ABSTRAK
Pensterilan produk perubatan untuk aplikasi sistemik adalah wajib sebelum produk
boleh dipasarkan. Sinaran gamma adalah salah satu kaedah yang digunakan secara
meluas untuk tujuan pensterilan. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan kesan
gamma-pensterilan pada kestabilan dan sifat fizikokimia emulsi Nigella sativagentamicin. Empat emulsi (A, B, C dan D) dengan kepekatan minyak N. sativa yang
berbeza dalam setiap sampel telah dirumuskan, manakala kepekatan gentamicin dibuat
tetap pada 0.1% (w / v) dalam semua sampel. Semua sampel disimpan pada tiga
keadaan penyimpanan yang berbeza (8C, 25C dan 50C). 120 mL daripada setiap
sampel telah dihantar untuk gamma-pensterilan. Beberapa ujian kestabilan telah
dilakukan ke atas sampel sebelum dan selepas gamma-pensterilan. Penilaian
kestabilan termasuk ciri-ciri organoleptik, ujian centrifugasi (5000 rpm, 5 minit),
kitaran beku-cair, penentuan pH, pengukuran saiz zarah dan analisis zeta-berpotensi.
Emulsi untuk sebelum dan selepas gamma-pensterilan telah diuji ke atas bakteria yang
menghasilkan biofilem iaitu S. aureus, P. aeroginosa dan S. epidermidis. Keputusan
kajian menunjukkan tiada perubahan warna dan pemisahan fasa yang berlaku kepada
semua sampel yang disimpan pada 8C. Pada keadaan penyimpanan 25C, pemisahan
fasa telah berlaku pada hari ke-14 dalam keempat-empat formulasi untuk pra- dan
pasca-gamma-pensterilan. Sampel yang disimpan pada suhu 50C adalah yang paling
tidak stabil kerana perubahan warna dan pemisahan fasa terbentuk pada hari ke-7 dan
seterusnya. Saiz zarah menunjukkan perbezaan yang signifikan antara sampel pra dan
pasca-gamma pensterilan. Sebaliknya, tidak ada perbezaan yang signifikan dari segi
zeta-potensi sebelum dan selepas gamma-pensterilan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan
bahawa sampel-sampel yang disimpan pada suhu 8C menunjukkan tahap kestabilan
yang paling baik sepanjang eksperimen ini berjalan.
