Abstract: In present study, antifungal paper soap strips of fluconazole were prepared & evaluated for dermal
infections because the presence of thick foam on the infected part causes hydration of stratum corneum for better
penetration of drug. The formulation and evaluation of medicated soap strips were carried out in two phases.
Phase-I studies optimization, which was carried out to study water absorption capacity using different types of
papers (Whatman filter paper no. 1, 41 and 42, filter paper, bond paper and butter paper) by determining the
parameters weight gain, size, shape and foam test. From these parameters best soap, concentration of liquid soap
solution and papers were selected. Phase-II studies involve incorporation of drug in best soap solution and papers
chosen from phase-I studies. The medicated soap strips were prepared by dipping the selected paper in drug
containing soap solution. The prepared medicated paper soap strips were characterized for weight gain, foam test,
drug content uniformity, FTIR, in vitro drug release studies using diffusion cell with hydrated cellophane
membrane and primary skin irritation test. The microbial studies indicate drug activity by zone of inhibition against
microorganisms C.albicans, S.typhi, S.aureus, E.coli, klibsiella, B.subtilis, P.aeroginosa, A.niger and A.fumigatus
species. The obtained results for prepared medicated soap strip of fluconazole indicate that these strips are
economic, convenient, gives good foam on application, uniform in drug content and not showing any skin
irritation.

Formulasi dan Evaluasi Strip Sabun Flukonazol untuk infeksi Dermal
1. Abstrak: Dalam penelitian ini, strip sabun antijamur flukonazol disiapkan & dievaluasi untuk
dermal infeksi karena keberadaan busa tebal pada bagian yang terinfeksi menyebabkan hidrasi
stratum korneum menjadi lebih baik penetrasi obat. Formulasi dan evaluasi sabun strip obat
dilakukan dalam dua fase.Tahap-I studi optimasi, yang dilakukan untuk mempelajari kapasitas
penyerapan air menggunakan berbagai jenis kertas (kertas saring Whatman no. 1, 41 dan 42,
kertas saring, kertas bond dan kertas mentega) dengan menentukan parameter penambahan berat
badan, ukuran, bentuk dan uji busa. Dari parameter tersebut sabun terbaik, konsentrasi sabun cair
solusi dan makalah dipilih. Studi fase-II melibatkan penggabungan obat dalam larutan sabun dan
kertas terbaik dipilih dari studi fase-I. Strip sabun obat disiapkan dengan mencelupkan kertas
yang dipilih dalam obat mengandung larutan sabun. Strip sabun kertas obat yang disiapkan
dicirikan untuk penambahan berat badan, tes busa, keseragaman kandungan obat, FTIR, penelitian
pelepasan obat in vitro menggunakan sel difusi dengan plastik terhidrasi membran dan uji iritasi
kulit primer. Studi mikroba menunjukkan aktivitas obat berdasarkan zona inhibisi terhadap
mikroorganisme C.albicans, S.typhi, S.aureus, E.coli, klibsiella, B.subtilis, P.aeroginosa, A.niger
dan A.fumigatusspecies. Hasil yang diperoleh untuk strip sabun obat flukonazol yang disiapkan
menunjukkan bahwa strip ini ekonomis, nyaman, memberikan busa yang baik pada aplikasi,
seragam dalam kandungan obat dan tidak menampilkan kulit apa pun gangguan.

7. Kesimpulan
Dari strip sabun obat yang disiapkan, potongan kertas yang disandikan B (kertas saring
Whatman no. 41) menunjukkan hasil terbaik dibandingkan dengan kertas terpilih lainnya. Strip
sabun obat menunjukkan pelepasan yang sangat baik dalam 10 menit menunjukkan efisiensi dan
penetrasi yang baik. Strip sabun medicated yang disiapkan mudah digunakan dan jenis sediaan
baru untuk infeksi kulit seperti kandidiasis, aspergillus. Ini berguna bagi pasien segala usia dan
jenis kelamin.
