Abstract

Kesum or Polygonum minus (P. minus) is well-known for its high antioxidant content and potential as a therapeutic agent. This study aimed to identify active compounds in P. minus leaf extracts that serve as antioxidants and SARS-CoV-2 inhibitor candidates using metabolomics approach. P. minus leaves were extracted with ethanol and subsequently fractionated using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and water. The ethyl acetate fraction exhibited the highest antioxidant activity as measured by the DPPH method. Further analysis using UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS identified several compounds, including 3-hydroxybenzoic acid, quercetin-3betha-D-glucoside, tectoridin, apigenin, hispidulin, and (±)-usnic acid. These compounds were subsequently evaluated in silico by molecular docking against the 1OG5 and 7CMD target proteins. The results demonstrated strong interactions between these compounds and the protein active sites, supporting their potential as both antioxidants and inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2. This study suggests that P. minus is a promising source of bioactive compounds for development in herbal-based therapies in West Kalimantan.

Abstract

The lack of innovation and standardization in Serbato Ice Cream presents a major challenge to product development and market competitiveness. This community engagement program aimed to enhance product value through recipe modification, new variant creation, product standardization, and packaging redesign. The innovation included replacing the red coloring from serbat water with the natural blue pigment of butterfly pea flowers, adjusting the recipe for a smoother texture, and conducting tests on fat, protein, and microbiological content. Repackaging involved adding nutritional information, halal certification, and expiration dates. The results revealed that Bulato Ice Cream contained higher protein (12.45%) than Serbato Ice Cream (2.70%), while Serbato Ice Cream had a higher fat content (2.70%) than Bulato (2.34%). Microbiological analysis confirmed both products were free of bacterial contamination. Sensory tests showed that Bulato Ice Cream was preferred for its color, sweetness, and flavor, while Serbato Ice Cream was favored for its aroma and texture. These innovations not only improved product quality and safety but also contributed economically to HIMDIKIM through the commercialization of attractive, standardized local ice cream products
