Abstract

Ficus heteropleura Blume, commonly known as mistletoe on oil palm, is a semi-parasitic plant that grows on oil palm trees. This study aimed to investigate the secondary metabolite profile, determine of total phenolic content, and evaluate antibacterial activity of ethyl acetate extract of F. heteropleura leaves. Extraction was performed using a grade maceration method. Qualitative phytochemical screening was conducted to identify major classes of secondary metabolites, and total phenolic content was quantitatively determined using the Folin–Ciocalteu method with gallic acid as the standard. Ethyl acetate extraction yielded 19.27 g of crude extract. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of steroids, flavonoids, saponins, and tannins. The total phenolic content was determined to be 35.730 mg GAE/g. UV-Vis spectrophotometric analysis showed characteristic absorption peaks at 475.0 nm and 432.8 nm, indicating the presence of phenolic pigments with conjugated C=O groups and a peak at 666.3 nm associated with chlorophyll, contributing to the green coloration. FTIR analysis confirmed the presence of functional groups such as O–H, C≡C, C=O, C=C, and C–O. Antibacterial activity demonstrated that the ethyl acetate extract exhibited strong inhibitory effects against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, with average inhibition zone diameters ranging from 5 to 10 mm, indicating strong antibacterial activity.

Abstract

Synthetic larvicides are often used to control Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, but they are detrimental to humans, the environment, and the occurrence of resistance. The purpose of the study was to determine the influence and effectiveness of red ginger essential oil (Zingiber officinale var. Rubrum) as the biolarvicide of Ae. Aegypti and the most effective concentration (LC50). A total of 25 instar 3 larvae with concentrations of 200, 400, 600, and 800 ppm and K+(temephos), K-(aquaade), four repetitions every 30 minutes of observation for 3 HSPs. The results of the study showed that red ginger essential oil affected the death of Ae. Aegypti larvae. There was a significant difference in mortality rates between concentrations (Kruskal-Wallis test, p = 0.001). Likewise, there was a moderate but significant correlation between concentration and mortality (Spearman correlation: r = +0.503, p = 0.001). The probit analysis, LC50 was 257.89 ppm, most effectively influencing mortality in Ae. Aegypti larvae based on LC50. Red ginger essential oil (Zingiber officinale var. Rubrum) is effective and effective as a bio-larvicide to control Ae. aegypti so that it can reduce dengue fever cases.
