Abstract

Sunlight consists of ultraviolet (UV) light and based on its wavelength, the UV light could be categorized into UVA, UVB, and UVC. Organic Ultraviolet (UV) filters can be found in plants and fruits which have orange-red or pink colors, such as watermelon, tomato, Secang (Caesalpinia sappan), carrot, dragon fruit, faloak (Sterculia quadrifida R.Br), strawberry, papaya, and rosella. Most of these plants contain active compounds such as carotenoids and anthocyanin. Determination of the effectiveness of the extracts as potential sunscreen was carried out by determining the Sun Protecting Factor (SPF) value in vitro by UV spectrophotometry. Maceration technique was used for the extraction process by using ethanol with a ratio of 4:1. Each of dried extract (100 mg) was then mixed well in the ethanol (96%, 50 mL) until all the extract was dissolved and then filtered. The SPF values were determined by the Equation of Mansur. It was observed that all of the red pigmented extracts showed UV protection capabilities, with Secang extract gave the highest SPF value of 18.490. The Secang extract would have good potential to be developed as one of the ingredients in the sunscreen cream. Sunscreen cream combination between Secang extract and ZnO showed good quality and significant SPF value than ZnO and extract Secang sunscreen cream.
