Black Cumin Pulp-Derived Activated Carbon: Synthesis, Characterization, and Pharmaceutical Soap Formulation

Abstract

In this study, we explore the utilization of black cumin pulps for the synthesis of activated carbon and its subsequent application in pharmaceutical soap formulation. Activated carbon was produced from black cumin pulps using a carbonization process followed by activation with a suitable activating agent. The synthesized activated carbon was characterized using various analytical techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Raman analysis. The results revealed the successful production of activated carbon with desirable properties for pharmaceutical applications. Subsequently, the activated carbon was integrated into soap formulations, and the resulting pharmaceutical soaps were evaluated for their antimicrobial efficacy and chemical properties. The soap formulations exhibited effective antimicrobial activity against various microorganisms, including Candida albicans, while maintaining high skin compatibility. Moreover, the incorporation of activated carbon led to enhanced cleansing properties and biotherapeutic effects. Overall, this study highlights the potential of utilizing black cumin pulps for sustainable activated carbon production and their application in pharmaceutical soap development, contributing to both environmental and healthcare sectors
