Abstract
This study formulated an organic highlighter pen ink using Blue Ternate (Clitoria ternatea) through a quantitative method, particularly true experimental design. This was done by adopting but modifying protocol from Zaidan (2017) and Zoe (2020). The procedures of product formulation were done at the Chemistry Laboratory of Colon National High School and the Nutraceutical Laboratory of Mindanao State University of General Santos City in the academic year 2022-2023. Further, the researchers subjected the formulated organic highlighter pen ink and the commercial highlighter pen as the control of this study to an evaluation test to determine its quality. The results showed that when applied to bond paper, cream paper, and index paper, neither the treatment nor the control exhibited smudging. Contrary to bond paper, which bled when the treatment was applied, the treatment did not bleed or show through on the reverse side of the cream and index paper. In contrast, the control exhibited bleeding/show-through on all three (3) distinct types of paper used for testing. In terms of font color fading, the control did not transition through the three font colors utilized, whereas the treatment did. Additionally, the results indicated by the p-value of 0.07, suggest there is no significant difference between the treatment and control groups in the smearing test. Concerning bleeding/show-through and font color fading, however, both the treatment and control groups demonstrated a significant difference, as supported by a p-value of 0.00. Hence, it is recommended that verification of the ink's durability and archival qualities, the environmental effects, and other uses of Blue Ternate be done and explored.
