Abstract

Sauropus androgynus (L.) Merr (Phyllanthaceae), also known as katuk in Indonesia, is a plant that grows in tropical climates. The study aimed to determine the total flavonoid levels of hydroethanolic extract of katuk leaves from three regions with different altitudes. Dried katuk leaves were macerated using hydroethanolic (the mixture of ethanol:H2O (7:3, v/v)) as solvent extraction at room temperature. Determination of flavonoid levels was carried out by the colorimetry method using AlCl3 reagent. Quercetin was used as a reference. A UV-Visible spectrophotometer measured the absorbance at the maximum wavelength of 434.50 nm. The total flavonoids level of hydroethanolic extract of katuk leaves from a different region with low-altitude (Bogor), medium-altitude (Sleman), and high-altitude (Bandung) are 8.56±0.63 mgQE/g, 4.67±0.30 mgQE/g, and 9.72±0.24 mgQE/g, respectively. Thus, it can be concluded that there are differences in total flavonoid levels of hydroethanolic extract of katuk leaves from three regions with different altitudes.

Abstract

Pluchea indica L. (Less), known as Indian camphorweed (common name) or Beluntas (Indonesia), is an antioxidant polyphenol-rich plant. In our previous studies, choline chloride-urea (CCU) at a molar ratio of 1:2 was one type of natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) in the extraction of P. indica leaves (PIL) polyphenolics. The present study aims to evaluate the comparison of total phenolics (TPC) and flavonoids content (TFC) and antioxidant activity of CCU (1:2) extract of PIL obtained from ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) and magnetic stirrer-assisted extraction (MSAE). Ethanol was used as a comparison to conventional extraction solvents. Determination of TPC and TFC was carried out using colorimetric with a microplate reader, while the antioxidant activity test was carried out using the ferric thiocyanate (FTC) method. The UAE is more effective in terms of PIL flavonoid extraction using CCU compared to MSAE, while PIL phenolic extraction with CCU is more effective with MSAE. CCU extract of PIL from extraction with MSAE at a concentration of 1.56% has an antioxidant capacity equivalent to 500 ppm ascorbic acid in inhibiting lipid peroxidation by about 70%. Thus, CCU combined with the MSAE can be recommended in further development of phenolic antioxidants extraction from PIL.
