Abstract

Indonesia has abundant biodiversity and great potential to be utilized in the health sector. For a long time, plants in Indonesia have been used for traditional medicine. The use of natural remedies is believed to be safer compared to consuming synthetic drugs. Plants used for traditional medicine are types that contain secondary metabolite compounds. Secondary metabolite compounds are energy or food deposits in plants and can be used when needed. Secondary metabolite compounds can also act as anti-diabetic agents, one of which is alkaloids. Studies have shown that the compounds found in Bajakah Spatholobus litoralis Hassk include alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, saponins, and phenolics. Although much initial exploration has been conducted on the phytochemical potential of Bajakah, more in-depth and systematic scientific studies are still needed, especially to identify, isolate, and test the biological activity of each of these compounds.
