Abstract

Pomelo peel (Citrus maxima) is an agricultural by-product rich in bioactive compounds, particularly flavonoids and phenolic compounds, which have potential antioxidant and anti-aging properties. However, the high pectin content in citrus peels can hinder the release of these active compounds. The objective of this study was to improve the extraction efficiency of bioactive compounds from pomelo peel using an environmentally friendly Enzyme-Assisted Extraction (EAE) method employing pectinase enzymes and to formulate the extract into instant effervescent granules. The granules produced using enzymatic extraction, granules prepared without enzymes, and control granules were evaluated through sensory assessment, physical quality analysis, total phenolic content, antioxidant activity (DPPH method), and crude fiber content. The results showed that enzyme-assisted extraction granules (EEG) exhibited significantly higher free radical scavenging activity (49.57 ± 6.10%) compared to non-enzymatic granules (NEG) (28.48 ± 8.67%). EEG also demonstrated a higher total phenolic content (0.027 g/100 g) than NEG (0.017 g/100 g). In addition, EEG showed better sensory acceptance and physical quality, including a more balanced taste, a stronger citrus aroma, and higher fiber content. These findings indicate that the application of the EAE method can enhance phenolic and fiber content, physical quality, and antioxidant activity of instant pomelo peel granules, suggesting their potential development as an environmentally friendly natural antioxidant product.

Abstract

Flavonoids are phenolic compounds widely distributed in plants and are well known for their antioxidant activity, which plays an important role in preventing degenerative diseases. One plant with potential as a flavonoid source is the globe amaranth flower (Gomphrena globosa L.), which has been traditionally used and reported to exhibit various pharmacological activities. This study aimed to determine the total flavonoid content of globe amaranth flower extract grown in Bali. Extraction was carried out using the maceration method with 96% ethanol at a ratio of 1:10, followed by remaceration. Phytochemical screening was performed to identify the presence of flavonoids, while total flavonoid content was determined using UV-Vis spectrophotometry with quercetin as the standard. Phytochemical screening confirmed the presence of flavonoid compounds in the extract. The determination of total flavonoid content showed a maximum wavelength at 433 nm, with a regression equation of Y = 0.0778X + 0.0012 and a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9982. The total flavonoid content obtained was 81.808 mgQE/100 g extract. In conclusion, the globe amaranth flower (Gomphrena globosa L.) is a promising natural source of flavonoids and has potential to be developed as a raw material for traditional medicine, particularly as a natural antioxidant.

Abstract

Before the availability of a vaccine, Indonesian population relied on traditional medicines to prevent COVID-19. Any species used by indigenous people could lead to further investigations in modern pharmacology, to preserve ancient knowledge, and to plan for plants’ conservation. The study aimed to discover and record species, methods of preparation, route of administration, and motivation in using medicinal plants by the Indonesian population during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants of survey were selected from the people who live in Java and Bali for responding to an online structured questionnaire. Relative Frequency of Citation (RFC) was employed in the quantitative analysis of the collected data. The pharmacological relevance of the five plants with the highest RFC was further reviewed. The results showed that respondents used 59 plants from 28 families. Five species with the highest RFC were Curcuma longa (0.707), Zingiber officinale (0.674), Cymbopogon citratus (0.269), Kaempferia galanga (0.174), and Curcuma zanthorrhiza (0.165). Most plants were prepared by boiling (77.97%) and administered orally as a single ingredient or mixed with other herbals. Respondents believed that the plants were beneficial as immune-booster (71.26%), maintain good health (24.85%) and stamina (12.28%), and prevent viral infection, including COVID-19 (5.39%). The most commonly used plants might be scientifically based to boost immunity. However, their usage against COVID-19 and the medicinal value of herbal mixtures should be further investigated.
