COSINO, KIMBERLY CLARISSE S., CRIZALDO, BLESSIE R. and SANGALANG, LEA MARIE G, Production and Acceptability of Soap with Malungay Extract. Research Study (General Science Curriculum) Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. March 2010. Adviser: Prof. Dulce L. Ramos.
This study was conducted from November 2009 to January 2010 at Tambo Malaki, Indang, Cavite. This study generally aimed to produce soap with malunggay extract. This study specifically aimed to determine the: sensory properties of soap with malunggay extract; acceptability of the soap produced with malunggay extract; formulation that will give the best result in producing soap with malunggay extract; and presence of Vitamin C in the produced soap with malunggay extract. Varying amounts of malunggay extract were mixed with the standard ingredient used in soap making. The study used three (3) treatments. The different treatments were as follows: T1 (15mL malunggay extract); T2 (20mL malunggay extract); and T3 (25mL malunggay extract). Malunggay extract was used in the soap formulation, which lasted for four weeks.
After curing the soap, its sensory properties were evaluated by 30 respondents based on odor, texture, hardness, lather, mildness and general acceptability. The statistical tests used to analyze the gathered data were Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT). Analysis of Variance showed that Ti and T3 were most favored in terms of sensory properties. However, Duncan's Multiple Range Test showed that T3 had higher mean than T1. Thus, 13 was the best treatment among the three formulations. T3 was analyzed to test the presence of Vitamin C, which acts as an antioxidant. After conducting the test, it has been proven that the produced soap with 25mL malunggay extract contains Vitamin C that is nearly comparable in strength to 500mg commercial Ascorbic acid tablet. Thus, soap with 25mL malunggay extract possesses antioxidant property.
