Cleaning the dirt on the skin is done using soap. Cow's milk contains protein and fat which is effective to moisturize and nourish the skin. This study aims to make liquid soap preparations from cow's milk that serves to increase moisture on the skin. The study began with the collection of cow's milks from small and medium businesses in the city of Cimahi and organoleptic characteristics testing. Then a series of liquid soap formulas were made containing 0, 5, 10 and 20% cow's milk. Liquid soap preparations obtained were evaluated including physical evaluation (organoleptic, pH, viscosity, and stability tests) and testing of respondents (testing the emollient power with a skin analyzer, preference test, and cleaning effectiveness). The data obtained were analyzed statistically using paired t-test. Physical evaluation results showed that the search for soap formula containing cow'...

The primary objective of social entrepreneurship is to address social issues through a business lens. Social capital is a critical indicator of a social enterprise's sustainability. The purpose of this conceptual paper is to examine social capital and its role in the innovation process. At the moment, no valid model adequately describes the role of social capital in social innovation, particularly in indigenous communities. The available model is intended for use in the private sector only for social innovation. The purpose of this paper is to discuss bridging and bonding at the level of actor-actor interaction to the innovation process in the Cireundeu indigenous community. Social innovation is believed to stimulate business growth by leveraging additional ideas from external sources, providing a new capacity for the community to develop a local economy. This paper aims to develop a conceptual model o...

However, users often see ‘off-grid’ systems as the second-best option, compared to citywide piped water systems. Thus, although they are designed to improve access to water and reduce inequality, they can be perceived by users as infrastructural manifestations of extant inequality. In this paper, we present original research on the perceptions of users in Cimahi, Indonesia, surrounding their access to water and willingness to use and maintain ‘off-grid’ infrastructure. The majority of respondents used groundwater and packaged water as their primary water sources, and paid approximately twice the maximum tariff of piped water service. We interpreted the survey data with the theory of planned behavior framework and determined that respondents demonstrated a willingness to pay fees fo...

The result can be used as a basis for economic development planning to support the sustainability of Regional Innovation Systems (SID). Methods used to determine the sectors are Location Quotient Index and Input-Output Table (IO Table) to view the linkages between sectors contained in the economy. Based on the results obtained there are three sectors featured in Cimahi those are Building/Construction, Sector Electricity, Gas and Water (sub sector of Electricity), and Manufacturing Sector Processing (sub sector of Textiles, Leather Goods and Footwear, Primary Metals and Steel, and Industry Without gas and Oil). Figures in the IO Table depict that manufacturing sector significantly plays an important role in the economy. Furthermore, textiles industry has the strongest backward and forward linkage. Analyses of LQ and IO Table can be used as a hint for further analysis of the existence of industrial cluster in the municipality.

The requirement of bath soap is proper acidity (pH) level, otherwise it will make the skin dry, itchy or even increase irritation. Therefore, this in vivo non-clinical irritation evaluation is conducted to evaluate the effects of bar soap produced by UKM in Cimahi according to the guidelines in rat test animals. The animals is divided into five groups and exposed to soap for four hours. Five soap samples is obtained from UKM in Cipageran area, Cimahi. Observations is made at the hours of 1, 4, 24, 48, and 72 hours after exposure and is continued for 14 days. The measured parameters is erythema and edema, and the primary irritation index. The results showed that bar soap containing cow milk produced by UKM in Cimahi did not cause erythema and edema. Primary irritation index of all bath soap samples was...
