| Summary: | The Safflower extract (Carthamus tinctorius L.) has phytochemical contents which
were flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, quinones and terpenoids, it had potential in several
pharmacological activities. The activity of compound can be increased using
nanoemulsion preparations. The aims of this study were to produce a stable
nanoemulsion containing ethanolic safflower extract and to determine anticoagulant
activity, antioxidants, inhibition of xanthine oxidase and inhibition of
acetylcholinesterase. Safflowers were extracted using 96% ethanol by maceration
method. The formation of nanoemulsion was carried out using combination of
homogenization and ultrasonic methods. Extract obtained was 60.303 g. The optimum
formula was obtained using Tween 80 (2.5%), Span 80 (2.5%), Cremophor RH 40
(7.5%) and PEG400 (2.5%) with oleic acid as the oil phase. The results of the stability
testing of nanoemulsion were physically and chemically stable at 25°C and 40°C. In
vitro activity test results showed that the ethanolic extract of safflower and
nanoemulsions with concentrations 10 mg/ml could prolong the coagulation time of
activated Prothrombine Time (aPTT) up to 60 ± 2.82 and 96.3 ± 4.38, prolonging the
time of Thrombine Time (TT) up to 31.5 ± 2.26 and 43.7 ± 0.21 seconds. However, it
slightly prolonged the coagulation time of Prothrombine Time (PT). The IC50 value of
antioxidant extract and nanoemulsion were 146.019 ± 2.94 µg / ml and 107.698 ± 3.89
µg / ml, IC50 inhibition of xanthine oxidase enzyme for extract and nanoemulsion were
89.3 ± 0.85 µg / ml and 60.071 ± 4.28 µg / ml, but had no inhibition activity against
acetylcholinesterase enzyme. The nanoemulsion can increase the anticoagulant,
antioxidants and inhibition of xanthine oxidase enzyme activity.
