| dc.description.abstract | This study was able to (1) evaluate the stability of honey-enriched kakawate soap in terms of physical, chemical, & microbiological properties, (2) assess the demographic profile of dog owners, (3) determine the acceptability and efficacy, and (4) perform cost analysis of the soap. To assess the product stability, and demographic profile & acceptability among owners, the data from thirty (30) dogs were tabulated and analyzed using frequency, counts, percentages & means. Efficacy was studied by the frequency of perceived effectiveness of the soap. Cost analysis was computed using the ROI formula. Over fifty-one (51) days, the soap’s pH remained alkaline, and microbiological tests showed negative results for the growth of pathogens. The majority of the dogs have mange. The soap was highly rated for its fragrance, appearance, lather, affordability, and effectiveness against mange. Efficacy suggests that lesions found on dogs diminish in size within two (2) months. Cost analysis suggests high profitability. | |
