Laboratory School, Indang, Cavite. April 2003. "Utilization of Beeswax and Essential Oils in the Production of Petroleum Jelly", Adviser: Dr. Mila Cueno Co-adviser: Prof. Dulce Ramos.
This study was generally conducted to produce petroleum jelly from beeswax and essential oils. Specifically, it aimed to evaluate the quality of petroleum jelly from beeswax and essential oils; compare the acceptability of the produced petroleum jelly with the commercial one; and to determine the best treatment that would give the best results in terms of color, odor, texture and general acceptability.
This study was conducted using six (6) treatments with three (3) replications. The ingredients used were beeswax, Eucalyptus Oil, and Castor Oil. The different treatments used were the following: To —(control); Tl (5.8 of beeswax: 31.3 ml of Eucalyptus Oil); T2 - (7.1 g beeswax: 31.3 ml of Eucalyptus Oil); T3 -(8.3 g of beeswax: 31.3 ml of Eucalyptus Oil); T4 - (5.8 g of beeswax: 31.3 ml of Castor Oil); Ts -(7.1 g beeswax: 31.3 ml of Castor Oil); and To - (8.3 g of beeswax: 31.3 ml of Castor Oil).
Data gathered from individual scores of each physical characteristic (color, Odor, texture and general acceptability) were subjected to Complete Randomized (CRD) Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistical test. Results were then subjected to Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) to determine if the treatments' differences caused significant differences among means. The four (4) sensory attributes showed significant differences as they were affected by increasing amount of beeswax and presence of essential oils
