Abstract

Brazilian Spinach (Althernanthera sisso) leaves are known to have a high natural antioxidant activity content of 3.7 ppm. Antioxidants have an important role in the human body to prevent damage caused by free radicals. One of the compounds that have antioxidant activity is flavonoids. Based on this description, it is necessary to know the content of total flavonoids in A. sisso This study aims to determine qualitatively using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), while quantitatively using UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Maceration method with 70% ethanol solvent was used to extract Brazilian spinach leaves. Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) followed by spray reagents was used to test the flavonoid compounds. Quercetin reagent was used to determine total flavonoid levels, while AlCl3 was used to determine total flavonoid levels. The results of this qualitative test showed the presence of flavonoids, and in the quantitative test using UV-Vis spectrophotometry the total levels of flavonoids were 70.890 ± 1.723% w/w quercetin equivalent. The 70% ethanol extract of A. sisso leaves contains flavonoids so that it has the potential to be developed as a medicinal plant

Abstract

The utilization of medicinal plants is one of the steps for alternative medicine. One of them is the kluwih plant (Artocarpus camansi) which is also similar to the breadfruit plant but has differences in its fruit. The purpose of this research is to analyze the total flavonoid content of 96% ethanol extract of kluwih leaves and which method has the potential to produce greater total flavonoid content. Extraction of kluwih leaves was done by maceration and sokhletation. The method implemented was UV-Vis spectrophotometry with AlCl3 reagent and involving quercetin as a comparator. Based on the analysis by applying the maceration method, an average level of 23.05 mg QE/g extract was obtained for the total flavonoid content of 96% ethanol extract of kluwih leaves, while the sokhletation method obtained an average of 31.33 mg QE/g extract. So it can be concluded that the extraction method that produces a greater total flavonoid content of 96% ethanol extract of kluwih leaves is sokhletasi.

Abstract

Alphitonia incana, also known locally as balik angin, is an endemic natural antioxidant plant of Borneo. The objective of the present work was to compare the effectiveness of maceration and Soxhlet extraction of balik angin leaves with respect to antioxidant activity and phenolic–flavonoid content. Ethanolic extracts were prepared using both extraction methods, and the phenolic-flavonoid content was quantified spectrophotometrically. Antioxidant performance was assessed through DPPH, CUPRAC, and FRAP assays. The findings revealed that the Soxhlet-derived extract contained higher concentrations of phenolic-flavonoid compounds than those produced by maceration. In addition, the Soxhlet-derived extract demonstrated stronger antioxidant activity, as evidenced by lower IC₅₀ and EC₅₀ values in the DPPH (10.872 ppm) and CUPRAC (6.578 ppm) assays compared with the macerated extract (IC₅₀ 13.127 ppm; EC₅₀ 14.034 ppm) and was classified as a very strong antioxidant. The FRAP assay further supported these results, with ferric reducing power values of 1,484.1 mg AAE/g extract for the Soxhlet-derived extract and 1,295.8 mg AAE/g extract for the macerated sample. Overall, the study concludes that Soxhlet extraction is more effective than maceration in enhancing the antioxidant potential of balik angin leaf, a result that is closely associated with their elevated phenolic and flavonoid content.
