Abstract

The utilization of medicinal plants as traditional medicine is one of the Indonesian heritages that needs to be preserved. Many methods can apply conservation for medicinal plants, includingethnomedicinal study. This study was conducted in Sukaharja Village, Cikulur, Lebak District, Banten, where its society still uses medicinal plants to cure many kinds of diseases, such as gastritisand gout arthritis. The aims of this study are: to make a list of plants used, which part of plants used, how to use it as a traditional medicine, and to count the use value (UV) of each species used. This study used a descriptively quantitative method, with purposive and snowball sampling. From this study, we found 25 species of plants that have been used to treat those 2 dis eases: 14 species of plants to cure gastritis, 16 species for treating gout arthritis, and 5 species can be used for both. Parts of the plant used as medicinal herb are rhizomes, herbs, and leaves that are boiled, grated, and consumed twice daily . From UV analysis, plants with the highest UV for treating gout arthritis are: Plantago major (UV 0.67), Syzygium polyanthum (UV 0.63), Physalis angulata (UV 0.61), Pandanus amaryllifolius (UV 0.57),and Curcuma zanthorrhiza (UV 0.54). Plants with the highest UV for curing gastritis are Lantana camara (UV 0.66), turmeric (Curcuma longa, UV 0.58), billygoat-weed (Ageratum conyzoides, UV 0.54), temulawak (Curcuma zanthorrhiza, UV 0.52), and Gymnanthemum amygdalinum (UV 0.46).

Abstract

Allium cepa L. (onion bulb) is a cultivated onion extensively and types of onions that are often used for various cuisines in Indonesia. The onion bulb was efficient in reducing blood fat levels and diuretics. This study aims to complete the onion monograph with determine the physicochemical characteristics and antioxidant activity. Microscopic results obtained include: has fibrous roots and it’s white, and about 9.5 cm long. The stem is pseudo, and the water is whitish-green, cylindrical leaves are dark green, elongated like a pipe and hollow with a length of ± 20 cm, and the tip is tapered. Onion tubers are single layer bulbs, having a diameter of 6 mm, which is higher than onions. Microscopic results contained identification fragments, including hair covering and transporting beams with thickening stairs and spirals. From the results of research on ethanol extract, 70% Allium cepa L. shows a drying shrinkage of 9.69%, 5.16% total ash content, 0.07 % acid insoluble acid dust, 14.36% water-soluble extract, and soluble ethanol extracts 23.04%. Phytochemical screening contains flavonoids, saponins, phenols, dan triterpenoids. Total flavonoid content contained in ethanol extract of onion tubers was 1.48 ± 0.12 mg QE/g. Total phenolic concentrations obtained in onion tuber ethanol extract were 103.47 ± 3.09 mg GAE/g. The antioxidant activity of ethanol extract of onion tubers by the DPPH method received IC50 is 65.31 ppm.
