INTRODUCTION
This chapter presents the background of the study, statement of the
problem, scope and delimitations, and hypothesis.
Background of the Study
Hygiene and cleanliness are the first priority nowadays due to the spread
of COVID-19 virus that leads to the global pandemic and lockdowns. People are
reliant on sanitation and cleaning product to protect themselves from the viruses;
however, virus spread through direct contact which put people at risk even
though they practice social distancing. To ensure people's protection and meet
their cleaning, hygiene, and sanitary needs, the researcher devised an organic
multipurpose cleaner that is also environmentally friendly, human-friendly,
accessible, and affordable.
Republic Act No. 8970 of 2000. An Act Prohibiting the Manufacture,
Importation, Distribution and Sale of Laundry and Industrial Detergents
Containing Hard Surfactants and Providing Penalties for Violation Thereof. This
Act provides for the banning from use, importation, distribution and production
detergents for domestic and industrial use, containing the so-called hard
surfactants with low biodegradability rate including hard or branded alkyl
benzene, hard or branched alkyl benzene surfactants, hard or branded dodecyl
benzene sulfonates, branched dodecyl benzene, their sodium or potassium salts
and other similar chemical compounds.

According to FDA Advisory No. 2020-549 which reminds the Consumers
and the general public to consider the following safety precautions. First is Select
appropriate cleaning and disinfectant products, Always, read the label, Use the
product as intended, Handle and apply cleaners and disinfectants properly, avoid
mixing of cleaners or disinfectants with other chemicals, Store and dispose
cleaners and disinfectants properly and to Know the contact information of the
nearest poison center in your area.
This study had identified the standards and protocols of a cleaning
product, infused with usefulness and benefits. At this time especially during the
global pandemic, the Do-It-Yourself Organic Multipurpose Cleaner is a great
asset in securing the cleanliness and the safety of people. Following the health
protocols such as wearing the face mask, social distancing, disinfecting, and
maintaining the cleanliness at home is a simple significant way to prevent the
spread of the virus.
Furthermore, the researchers focused on the capabilities of The Do-It-
Yourself Organic Multipurpose Cleaner in terms of being a household cleaner,
Ecofriendly and Human friendly, and accessibility and affordability. The
researchers want to prove that cleanliness can be achieved and maintained.

EVALUATION DESIGN AND FRAMEWORK
This chapter analyzes the evaluation design and framework of the
research project entitled “The Do-It-Yourself Organic Multipurpose Cleaner”.
The researcher created an organic multipurpose cleaner that is also
environmentally friendly, human-friendly, accessible, and affordable to ensure
people's safety and meet their cleaning, hygiene, and sanitary needs.
Discussion of Expected Output and Justification
The research project entitled “The Do-It-Yourself Organic Multipurpose
Cleaner”. This multipurpose cleaner will help the individuals who are engaged in
different household cleaning activities.
Hygiene and cleanliness are the first priority nowadays due to the spread
of COVID-19 virus that leads to the global pandemic and lockdowns. People tend
to buy hygiene and cleaning product to protect themselves from the viruses;
however, virus spread through direct contact which put people at risk even
though they practice social distancing. To ensure the safety of the people and to
provide their cleaning, hygiene and sanitary needs; the researcher came to think
of an organic multipurpose cleaner.
Theoretical Framework
According to the Theory of Mixing. Mixing of ingredients, or dispersion of
one phase in another, is an essential step in many pharmaceuticals processes.

This chapter focuses on batch mixing processes, where the purpose is to use
fluid mechanics, molecular diffusion and dispersion effects to produce spatially
homogeneous mixtures. It addresses the question of what is an ‘acceptable’
measure of mixedness; the idea of a scale of scrutiny of the mixture and various
measures of the quality of a mixture. The examples presented consider two
different situations of mixing between components in a liquid and between
different types of solid particles (Chris D Rielly, 2015).
The aforementioned idea shows how the Organic Multipurpose Cleaner
came to be and specifically the mixture if solid particles and liquids to form the
cleaning product.

The Variables

This Organic multipurpose cleaner is made up of tea tree oil, white
vinegar, borax, soda crystal, and liquid castile soap which are known to be
effective cleaning substances.
The Tea tree oil, also known as melaleuca oil, is an essential oil that
comes from steaming the leaves of the Australian tea tree. When used topically,
tea tree oil is believed to be antibacterial. Tea tree oil is commonly used to treat
acne, athlete’s foot, lice, nail fungus and insect bites.
White vinegar is a solution typically consisting of 4–7% acetic acid and
93–96% water, though types with higher acetic acid content are available for
agricultural or cleaning purposes. It’s most commonly made via the fermentation
of grain alcohol.
The Borax is a white crystalline compound that consists of a hydrated
sodium borate Na2B4O7·10H2O, that occurs as a mineral or is prepared from
other minerals, and that is used especially as a flux, cleansing agent, and water
softener, as a preservative, and as a fireproofing agent.
The Soda crystals (washing soda) are a fantastic water softener and
powerful multi-purpose cleaner, and they’re also great value at around £1 a kilo.
Not to be confused with caustic soda, this simple, one ingredient product is an
essential for cleaning and laundry. Soda crystals should be dissolved in warm
water.
The Liquid Castile soap is an amazingly versatile vegetable-based soap
that’s made free of animal fats and synthetic ingredients. This natural, nontoxic,

biodegradable soap is available in bar or liquid form. Traditionally, castile soap
was made of olive oil. It gets its name from the Castile region of Spain.

culture dilution, sterile

nutrient agar was dispensed.
The
agar was allowed to solidify,
after thoroughly mixing the
poured solution with the agar.
Total Plate Counts expressed
as colony forming units per
mL(cfu/ml), were determined
after incubation at 30°C for
72 h. Average TPC was
reported per test setup.
Results of
the study showed that ethyl
alcohol sanitizers reduced the
microbial load by 43% while
the isopropyl alcohol
sanitizers reduced the
microbial load by 35%. The
benzalkonium
chloride-based solutions
reduced the bacterial load
more significantly.
Benzalkonium
chloride in water
sanitizers reduced
microbial load to as
much as 92% while the
benzalkonium chloride in

solution completely
eliminated the

antimicrobial potency of
commercially available hand
sanitizers
were revealed in this study.
The organoleptic study
involved 33 trained
