    The document discusses creating a hand sanitizer using calamansi extract and aloe vera gel as the main ingredients. Specifically, researchers aimed to see if this homemade sanitizer would dry hands without side effects. They prepared the ingredients, including extracting calamansi juice and mixing it with aloe vera gel, glycerin, orange zest, olive oil and alcohol. The mixture was then tested on hands to analyze if it effectively sanitized without adverse effects like drying or irritation.

    Statement of the Problem

    The main purpose or this study is to utilize the aloe vera


    gel and calamansi extract as an antibacterial hand
    sanitizer.

    • Specifically, it aims to answer the following questions.

    1. Does the calamansi pure extract and aloe vera gel


    can make hands dry?
    2. Does it have side effects?
    REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE (RRL)
    The researchers are creating a more effective hand sanitizer
    with ingredients that are usually found locally. Calamansi is
    an example of this local ingredient that is needed for hand
    sanitizing. Calamondin (Citrofortunella Microcarpa) is an
    important Citrofortunella, meaning that the calamondin is
    an intergenetic hybrid between a member of the genus
    citrus (in this case probably the mandarin orange) and the
    komquat belong to fortunella.

    Calamondin is a shrub or small tree growing to 3-6 meter


    (9.8-19.7ft). The plant is characterized by wing-libe
    appendages on the leaf stalks and white or purplish white
    flower.The fruit of the calamondin resembles a small, round
    line. Usually 3-5-35mm in diameter but sometimes up to
    45mm. The center pulp
    and the juice is the orange color of a tangerine with Avery
    thin orange pill when ripe . Each fruit contains 8 to 12 seeds
    (portonia,2014).
    Hand sanitizer have a form of alcohol, as an active
    ingredient. It works as an antiseptic. Other ingredients may
    include water, fragrance and glycerin. Alcohol-based hand
    sanitizer are clearly a very useful and important method to
    prevent most bacterial and viral infections, with rare
    ceptions (Doheny,3013). A typical store-bought hand
    sanitizer contains the active ingredients isopropanol or
    ethanol, these are both forms of alcohol. These types of
    alcohol have the ability to kill many germs on contract,
    without damaging the skins tissue. Isopropanol and ethanol
    kill germs by discovering their constituent proteins, causing
    the germs to die.
    MATERIALS:

    1. 1/2 Cuf of aloe vera gel


    2. 2 teaspoon of glycerin
    3. 1 cup of ethyl alcohol
    4. Zest of a one whole orange
    5. 1/2 cup of calamansi extract
    6. 5 drops of olive oil
    PROCEDURE
    The researchers did was, first, scrape the gel inside the
    aloe vera leaves. After scraping the gel, the group put it a
    plastic container and added 1 cup of ethyl alcohol and 2
    teaspoon of glycerin. Next, grate the orange to get the
    zest and it to the mixture, then, mix the1/2 cup of
    calamansi extract, the calamansi was obtained from the
    local market, the fruit were cleansed with distilled water,
    then, mix it till blend. Lastly, the group recycled a small
    bottle that was used as a container for the mixture.
    PHASE 1
    PREPARATION
    Calamansi preparation
    The calamansi were taken at the researchers house in
    Purok-8 Poblacion, Montevista, Davao De Oro. Prepare a
    calamansi, knife, empty bottle.

    EXTRACT PREPARATION
    The calamansi will be wash in a clean water. The
    researchers prepare a knife and an empty bottle where
    they can put the calamansi extract. The researchers must
    wear a safety equipment like mask and a gloves for their
    safety.
    PHASE II
    EXPERIMENTATION
    The researchers should cut the half of the calamansi, then
    squeeze the calamansi and put it in the empty bottle. The
    researchers should add the olive oil, the aloe vera, the
    glycerine, the zest of the orange, and the ethyl alcohol in
    the calamansi and then mixed it until it blended.

    PHASE III
    Data Collection and Analysis
