Abstract

Raru (Shoreabalanocarpoides Sym) signifies one of the tree species that grows widespread in Sumatra Island.  Its bark portion is commonly used by local villagers as additional ingredient mixed to nira (sugar palm juice).  This addition is intended to make the juice more durable and also to enrich its taste after the juice is previously fermented to become traditional toddy beverage or the so-call “tuak”.  Local villagers believe that raru bark can reduce the level of blood sugar. As the relevance, the research was conducted to confirm that the extract from raru bark could afford its biological activities to inhibit alpha-glucosidase enzyme through its characterization, quantification, and isolation of its boactive compound. The extraction was performed using two methods (i.e.reflux and maceration techniques). Result revealed that the bark extract obtained from both techniques contained polyphenol compounds: flavonoid, saponin and tannin. Further, raru-bark extract from the reflux and maceration techniques could inhibit the action of alpha glucosidase enzymes on carbohydrate substrate ( i.e. p -nitrophenil-α-D-glucopyranose), at respectively 90.67% and 97.33%. Meanwhile, the inhibition activities afforded by the patented drug as a control (i.e. glucobay) equaled to 97.05%.  Assesment using UV-VIS spectroscopy, showed that the maximum spectrum of bioactive compound in the extract was at the wave length of 288.6 nm. Scrutiny using FTIR spectroscopy could identif y the presence of aromatic groups in the compound, containing -OH, C-H, C=C, C-O and C-H bond types. Analysis using GC-MS exhibited that the compound had molecular weight of 390 with molecular structure as C20H22O8. Ultimately, data analysis scrutiny with the aid of NMR judged the most plausible compound as bioactive was 4-Glucosyl-3, 4’, 5-trihydroxystilbene.

Abstract

Dragon's blood is essentially a red-colored resin secreted by the fruits of rattan species. The dragon's blood originated from Indonesia which becomes widespread in international market is indigenous from Daemonorops spp. The dragon's blood has been popularly used as traditional medicines. To confirm such dragon's blood efficacy, an assesment was already conducted regarding the phytochemical screening, antioxidant activity, and anticoagulant activity indicatively afforded by the dragon's blood resin produced by three rattan species, ie. Daemonorops longipes Mart, Daemonorops draco BL, and Daemonorops melanochaetes BL. Phytochemical screening aimed to identify the kinds of chemical compounds inside the dragon's blood resin; antiæcidant tests used DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl); and anticoagulation tests proceed in-vitro using rabbit blood. Results revealed that the dragon's blood from those three species, exctracted using polar (methanol) and semi-polar (ethyl acetate) solvents, contained chemical compounds which are already renowed for medicinal efficacy and potent antinccidant, e.g. flavonoids, triterpenoids, and tannin. The greatest antioccidant potency was imparted by dragon's blood from Daemonorops longipes Mart, as indicated by its lowest IC value (71.89U+3,89 mgl.). The ethyl acetate dragon's blood extract, rather than promoting anticoagulat action on the rabbit-blood, in fact induced the blood coagulation, whereby the extract from Daemonorops longipes Mart performed the most effectively (shortest in coagulation time).

Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the quality of aromatherapy candles and soaps that produced by the addition of Dryobalanops aromatica oil. Aromatherapy candles are made in several formulation variations, and then tested on 30 respondents to know the preference for candles. Parameters measured are prefereed for before candle burned, after burned and the perceived effects of aromatherapy. The soap is made in different formulations by adding Dryobalanops aromatica oil at 2, 4 and 6%, then tested the physico chemical properties. Results show that there are significant differencesof respondent preference between formulations before the candle is burned and formula with the lowest concentration of dryobalanop oil was most preferred. It does not indicate any preference difference between formulations after the candle is burned. However, the trend indicated that candle with medium oil concentration is more accepted. There were no significant differences in aromatherapical effects on various formulas. Aromatherapy candles formulation with the lowest concentration of dryobalanops oil is the most acceptable formulation that gives a positive effect on many respondents. Furthermore, the physico-chemical propertiesof the soap showed that water content and amountof fatty acids are below the standard limit, but the value of free fatty acid and saponified lipid levels could meet the ISO standards. Value of qualitative minerals content is negative. It was found that borneol compound as the Dryobalanops aromatica identifier in the form of endo borneol. The other encountered chemical compounds are caryophylene, alpha pinene, alpha humulene, alpha terpineol and dl-Limonene.
