CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
The general descriptions of the topics the research is given in this chapter. There
will be multiple subheadings in this chapter, including the background of the study,
objectives, hypotheses, statement of the problem, conceptual framework, conceptual
paradigm, significance of the study, scope and limitations, and the definition of terms.
INTRODUCTION
“The Philippines is the mainstream of herbal medicine” (Lazarte C., 2020)1. The
most typical thing that Filipinos usually do is use herbal remedies to cure wounds. Often
utilized in this activity is Moringa Oleifera, also known as Malunggay.
Don Antonio de Zuzuarregui, Sr. Memorial Academy always considers each
student's health and well-being. The school clinic has medicines and first aid supplies that
have been updated and are nearly complete. However, the majority of these were
chemically derived drugs that might cause adverse reactions. Some of the students also
have wounds that do not require chemical-based items and can be treated with herbal
remedies. To address this, the researchers advise creating Moringa Oleifera ointment, later
called "Miracle Ointment," as an effective treatment. This project intends to deliver

quality therapy while lowering expenditures, which will benefit both students and anyone
in need.
Herbal plants that are naturally occurring in the environment piqued people's interest back
then, as they do now. One such plant is the Malunggay. Studies show that this plant is
essential for accelerating the wound's healing process, increasing the healing properties of
the wound. Thus, the purpose of this experiment is for the researchers to make an organic
ointment from Malunggay.
In this study, the researchers aim to determine the effectiveness of Moringa
Oleifera as an organic ointment for wound treatment, as well as providing information
about the Moringa Oleifera and the Formulation of the Moringa Oleifera Ointment.
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Wound is any damage or injury to living tissue, such as the skin, mucous
membranes, or organs. In addition, wounds may develop over time as a result of
underlying medical conditions such as immunologic diseases, diabetes mellitus or
venous/arterial insuffeciency. Using highly chemical products to a wound can
potentially cause skin irritation and infection because of its high chemical products
that can lead to wounds becoming worse.
Herbal based medicine is one of the best ways in wound treatment and around
the world, 80% of people globally rely on Herbal medicine it is a rapidly

growing field. (Dan et al., 2018)2. Moringa Oleifera popularity in the Philippines
makes it convenient in medicinal purposes, particularly in wound treatment.
High-value plant Moringa oleifera has a number of medical applications,
including the ability to treat wounds and act as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial,
and antioxidant. “In this study we have examined the M. Oleifera is rich and has
numerous vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and phytochemicals that are bioactive
compounds. These components of Moringa Oleifera increase the healing properties
of wounds including conditions like diabetes, chronic infection and weakened
immune system. These substances are considered as the best source of active
compounds for use in medicine” (Jaya et al., 2023)3.
“The Moringa Oleifera promoted effective wound healing and did not show
any negative effects towards skin. Each part of the statistics being tested denotes a
healing activity. The wound contracts during the healing process, and the
epithelialization phase successfully heals the wounds. The Moringa Oleifera
increased the healing of MRSA and Aeruginosa-infected wounds” (National Library
of Medicine, 2022)4.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
This chapter includes reviews of related literature and review of related studies.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
“Moringa Oleifera (MO) is rich in primary metabolites, secondary metabolites, and
various vitamins and minerals. The rich content of various metabolites, vitamins, and
minerals makes Moringa Oleifera rich in benefits. Moringa Oleifera is rich in
anthraquinones, especially emodin and chrysophanol. Anthraquinones have potent anti-
inflammatory effects, which have the potential to activate various growth factors and
chemokines and initiate angiogenesis processes that play a major role in wound healing.
Extracts from Moringa Oleifera are known to contain antioxidant properties derived from
their flavonoid content. Flavonoids themselves have been shown to increase the migration
and proliferation of epithelial cells as well as the activity of myofibroblasts. Studies show
that these flavonoids significantly accelerate wound healing by increasing wound
contraction, shortening the epithelialization period, increasing collagen deposition, and
causing tissue granulation” (Josephine, 2010). 5
Moringa Oleifera (MO) is a plant that has a high concentration of primary and
secondary metabolites, vitamins, and minerals, which provide several health benefits. Its
Anthraquinone chemicals, particularly emodin and chrysophanol, have potent anti-
inflammatory properties that stimulate the release of growth factors and chemokines, thus

commencing the angiogenesis required for wound healing. Furthermore, MO extracts
include flavonoids with antioxidant qualities that promote epithelial cell migration and
development, as well as myofibroblast activity. These flavonoids speed up wound healing
by boosting wound closure, shortening epithelialization time, enhancing collagen creation,
and promoting tissue granulation.
“Phytochemicals, naturally occurring substances found in plants, react with either
oxygen groups or other biological macromolecules to instigate biological effects and
combat human diseases. Several research groups across the world have shown that
phytochemicals may play a critical role in preventing and/or treating a number of deadly
diseases such as cancer and inflammatory conditions. Wound healing is a complex,
dynamic, and multistep process that involves several cell types, and phytochemicals have
been reported to improve wound healing. Phytochemicals derived from plants such as
curcumin consist of bioactive compounds that are traditionally used in wound healing. The
increase in the use of phytochemicals as a therapeutic agent and extensive research to
understand how nutrients can interact with the human genome to alter the expression of
genes has led to the development of a new nutro-genomics branch of science”
(Thangapazham et al., 2016).6
Phytochemicals, occurring naturally in plants, seem to have a knack for both
preventing and treating diseases like cancer and inflammation. These compounds work
their magic by interacting with biological molecules, causing these positive effects.

Particularly, substances like curcumin have been found to speed up the healing of wounds.
The increasing use of phytochemicals in therapy has sparked curiosity about how they
interact with our genes, leading to the birth of a whole new area of study called
nutrigenomics.
Cell migration is one of the most important phase of wound healing. Plant extracts
have been used on cell migration using a scratch experiment. Thus, the efficacy of Moringa
Oleifera in the study evaluated how Moringa Oleifera leaf extract can affect migration of
cells in the RPE cell line. In the study, it is found that ethanolic Moringa Oleifera extracts
greatly helped the stimulation of cell migration towards the artificially created scratch. The
cytotoxic effects of plant extracts were also test using MTT. The cytotoxic evaluation can
be used to determine the biological and healing value of plant material. In our test, Moringa
Oleifera extract did not cause any adverse effects in RPE cells. After being exposed to leaf
extracts for 48 hours, RPE cells maintained a 91-99% viability rate, however Huh-7 cancer
cells shown noticeably impacts from the extracts. These findings suggested that M.
Oleifera extracts could be used as wound healing for further research (Muzammil et al.,
2023). 7
The enriched extracts from Moringa Oleifera seem to have a knack for inhibiting
α-glucosidase, which could be a game-changer in the wound healing process. Interestingly,
it appears that the ethanol-based ones work best. Plus, M. Oleifera is like a treasure trove
of antioxidants like kaempferol and quercetin, making it even more promising for wound

healing. And get this: those leaf extracts? They actually help cells migrate without causing
any harm, suggesting they're worth diving deeper into for wound healing research.
“Moringa is used in product formulas that help moisturize the skin, minimize the
formation of lines and wrinkles, and decrease the symptoms of inflammations like redness,
irritation, itching and dryness. Advantages of the Moringa Oleifera include its capacity to
greatly improve the appearance of skin, even people with "normal" type of skin. The
previously mentioned skin benefits, studies have shown that Moringa Oleifera leaf extract
helps heal skin after sun exposure damages it with UV radiation. In one study, the skin's
volume or plumpness was improved by using an extract of Moringa Oleifera leaf. It has
found that it helped to improve the skin's roughness, scaliness, and smoothness as well as
lessen the appearance of visible wrinkles. The antimicrobial components of Moringa
contributes to the effectiveness in products used in wounds.” (Veloso, 2018b). 8

REVIEW OF RELATED STUDIES
The extract obtained from Moringa oleifera exhibits substantial potential as a
natural remedy for improving the intricate process of wound healing in living organisms.
“The aqueous extract of Moringa oleifera significantly increased the wound
breaking strength in incision wound model. The aqueous extract treated wounds were
found to epithelized faster and the rate of wound contraction was significantly increased as
compared to control wounds. Significant increase in granulation breaking strength and
hydroxyproline content in dead space wound was observed. The aqueous extract
significantly decreased the anti healing activities of dexamethasone in all the wound
models” (Lambole & Kumar, 2012).9
The study found that using the extract from Moringa Oleifera made wounds
stronger and healed them faster. It also helped wounds close up quicker. In another test, it
increased strength and some chemicals in wounds. Plus, it countered the effects of a
medicine that slows healing.
“New therapeutic approaches and technologies are continually being developed. At
the same time, studies to evaluate the efficacy of documented0 traditional approaches for
wound healing, such as herbs. An ideal wound dressing should be non-toxic and cost
effective. Herbal medicine can be considered a medical plant that has a non-toxic nature
due to its long history of use and affordability. Moringa Oleifera is among the medicinal

as the most used intervention for wound healing compared to oral or topical application of
other extracts” (Shafie et al., 2022).10
Innovative treatment techniques are constantly being created and extended. For
example, research evaluating the efficacy of established traditional wound healing
treatments, particularly herbs. Because herbal medicine has been used for so long, it is
considered a non-toxic medicinal plant. Moringa Oleifera is a well-documented medicinal
herb that has long been used for wound treatment. The findings also revealed that, when
compared to the oral or topical use of other extracts, aqueous extracts of Moringa Oleifera
leaves were the most frequently used medication for wound healing.
Moringa oleifera has earned quite the reputation as a cure-all, with a longstanding
history of medicinal use across Asia. Its effectiveness in healing is believed to stem from
its rich array of phytochemicals. Recent studies point to the promising wound-healing
properties of aqueous extracts from Moringa oleifera, showing improvements in various
aspects such as wound strength, healing speed, and scar reduction.

Moringa is widely regarded as one of the world's most useful trees. In the
Philippines, almost every component of the plant is used for food and traditional medicine.
Several research and development operations are now focusing on food fortification to
enhance moringa's nutritional value and medicinal potential. The moringa industry in the
Philippines has grown considerably in the previous decade, owing to increasing research
and development efforts on this crop. Moringa leaves and seed oil are among the most
widely utilized raw resources in the food and nutrition sectors, as well as cosmetics and
herbal remedies. Leaf powder is commonly used for food fortification as an ingredient in
bread, noodles, juices, milk, and tea, whereas leaf powder capsules are mostly utilized as
food supplements and herbal medications. (Palada, 2017). 13

METHODOLOGY
This chapter includes Research Design, Subject of the Study, Vicinity Map,
Procedure, Step-by-Step Procedure of formulating the Moringa Oleifera Ointment,
Procedure of the Study and research instrument.
RESEARCH DESIGN
This study is a Quantitative research approach and the researchers used
Experimental research design to ascertain the effectiveness of Miracle Ointment as a
wound treatment. In addition, Quantitative research is the process of collecting and
analyzing numerical data to describe, predict, or control variables of interest. This type of
research helps in testing the causal relationships between variables, making predictions,
and generalizing results to wider populations (Sreekumar, 2023).14 Experimental research
design was used to gather data and to collect information. Also, the researchers gathered
data and collected information through observing the respondents' experiences while they
were using the product.
Moreover, Experimental research design was used in this study because it is
commonly focused on the relationship between two variables, the independent and
dependent variables. The independent is the one that manipulates the amount of materials
being used in an experiment, and which causes changes in the whole process of the
experiment. While, dependent variables are the outcome of an experiment. This determines
if the experiment that the researchers made was successful or not, and if the results of the

product were already better after doing some trials (Bistami, 2024).15 Furthermore, it is
used because in this study the cause-and-effect relationship between the effectiveness of
Miracle Ointment was determined.
SUBJECT OF THE STUDY
The subject of the study is to demonstrate how well Miracle Ointment works as a
wound treatment. In order to acquire and gather the data they needed, the researchers
identified respondents who were Don Antonio de Zuzuarregui, Sr. Memorial Academy,
Inc. younger pupils. The best age range was suggested to be between 12 and 16 years old
since, due to their youthful metabolisms, young bodies could provide the best outcomes
that the researchers need.
It is best if the researchers choose participants who were young students of Don
Antonio de Zuzuarregui Sr. Memorial Academy (DAZSMA). The reason for this was later
determined by looking at the metabolism of youthful bodies. The recommended age range
was ideally between 12 and 16 years old. In this study, a non-probability sampling method
called purposive sampling was used. a kind of sampling strategy where researchers select
participants based on the characteristics that best match the specific data that is required.
For each part of the assessment, the researchers chose junior high school adolescents, aged
12 to 16, because of their youthful metabolism and to simply determine any wound

PROCEDURE OF THE STUDY
The researchers came up with three topics, Using Castor Oil as Lip Oil (1), The
Efficacy of Cocos Nuicefera as Hand Cream (2), and The Effectiveness of Moringa
Oleifera as an Organic Ointment for Wound Treatment (3) to be presented on the title
defense. The one that the researchers are dependent and chose to continue with is the
Effectiveness of Moringa Oleifera as an Organic Ointment for wound treatment
In concluding Chapter one, the researchers introduced the Moringa Oleifera, its
benefits, especially in treating wounds. The researchers discussed the gaps that needed to
be answered throughout the study. With this, the researchers came up with the underlying
problems that the study had addressed.
Followed by chapter two which discussed the review of related literature and
studies. The researchers gathered and compiled all the information that can answer the SOP
of the study. This chapter contains various details of the Moringa Oleifera and studies that
are accordant with the main idea. The researchers compared the information that had been
gathered with the Statement of the Problem of the study to identify whether it can address
the problem or not. Unfortunately, not all of the problems were addressed in this chapter
but were answered in the following chapters.
Followed by chapter three that discussed the Methodology used in the study. The
researchers decided what methods to use regarding the research design, sampling method
and the methodology itself. The researchers also did the experimentation of the product
and came out with two trials. The first trial was an error to be described but the second one
somehow met the expectation. The researchers also thought of doing a third trial but

Senior High School
decided not to because of the satisfaction in the second trial. The production of the guided
questions in the observation was also discussed in this chapter.
The researchers then proceed with the topic proposal and thoroughly reviewed all
the data contained in chapters one to three. After the chapters were revised to make sure
the researchers were prepared for the proposed topic, the chapters were presented to the
panelist along with an introduction of the product. The topic was accepted but the
researchers had to make changes in order to avoid the invalidation of the study. The title
that was reconstructed was “The Effectiveness of Miracle Ointment as an organic ointment
for treating wounds”
Followed by chapter four that discussed the results of the study. The researchers
analyzed the data that had been gathered from the subjects of the study and answered the
remaining problems that hadn't been answered in the previous chapters. The researchers
also reviewed the gathered observations and interpreted the results.
Followed by chapter five, which discussed the summary and conclusions. The
researchers summarized the whole study into this chapter and also provided some
suggestion/s for the future researchers to follow. The researchers concluded the study and
discussed the problems that are addressed throughout the study.
And Lastly, the final defense, which occurred at the conclusion of a research study,
is an important step in assessing the comprehensiveness of the study. All aspects of the
research are evaluated for accuracy and completeness, beginning with the development
phases and concluding with the findings. The methodology is carefully evaluated in order
to make sure it fits the objectives of the study and sufficiently relates to the research

Senior High School
questions. Therefore, the researchers successfully achieved in study of Moringa Oleifera
as an Ointment, answered all the gaps and other benefits, issues and causes throughout the
final defense.
RESEARCH INSTRUMENT
This study used survey, observation sheet, and interview questions and is used to
observe and determine the Junior Highschool Students insights and wounds that are
qualified in the study of using the Moringa Oleifera as Ointment. The survey is use to
determine the type of wounds that the respondents have to qualify in the given criteria. The
observation sheet is developed based on the 5 days given time to observe the wound. It
consists of 21 questions. Interview questions are used to allow respondents to give insights
about the Ointment. The researchers used the prepared instruments to gather the data of the
effectiveness of Moringa Oleifera as an organic ointment for wound treatment. The
observation sheet contains questions that determine effects of the Moringa Oleifera
Ointment and documentation of the process of healing in 5 days of using it.

Failed Success
The first trial was failed. In the first trial the researchers did not use a natural coconut oil
instead a preserved one and added an natural extract where the researchers boils the
Coconut Milk to extract its natural oil. The first trials results into fail because the Ointment
consistency results into hard texture and it does not feels like a Ointment.
The second trial was successful and was used by the researchers to create the Miracle
ointment. The researchers used a natural coconut oil extract, and used a reduced amount
of beeswax to achieve its consistency of texture.

CONCLUSION
The researchers concluded all respondents just have minor wounds. For students
with sensitive skin, using Miracle Ointment which is herbal instead of highly chemically
formulated therapies has advantage. It is well known that powdered Moringa Oléifera leaf
extract works well as a natural wound treatment. Because it promotes collagen production
and repairs skin cells, coconut oil is great for healing wounds. Beeswax is a crucial
ingredient in ointment since it gives it structure and texture. The researchers agreed that
the intended responders would be young students, namely those aged 12 to 16 years old,
because they can supply the information that the researchers need. The respondents'
wounds are minor, and it is critical that they use Miracle ointment, which is organic and
does not include chemicals. The researchers have proven that the Miracle ointment as an
organic ointment for treating wounds is effective, it helped the wound to dry, hastening the
healing process with the help of its natural antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties,
helps remove the scab of a wound in a safe way, and did not cause any side effects.

Senior High School
Recommendations
This study recommends for Future Researchers, Students, Teachers who will be focusing
on the same study or is connected in this research. It's important to take note of this to
elaborate more on the evidence and capacity of Moringa Oleifera as an Ointment for
wounds.
For Students
• The researchers recommend using Miracle Ointment, as it contains a vast majority
of healing of minor wounds faster and more naturally compared to chemically made
products that can potentially cause side effects.
For Future Researchers
The researchers recommend this to the future researchers.
● Future researchers should utilize placebo effects, enabling them to more effectively
determine the effectiveness of the product.
● Future researchers must do a test on the shelf life of their product to identify and
observe the expiry date of it.
● Future researchers should know how to maintain the good scent of the product.
● Future researchers should look for respondents with major wounds and test the
product on them to see the effectivity of the product in serious wounds.
● Future researchers should acknowledge its scope and limitations, which may
inform the formulation of research objectives.

Senior High School
For School Clinic
A recommendation for the school clinic.
• The school clinic is suggested to use Miracle Ointment as it heals minor wounds
fast, scratches and cuts.
