Abstract

The study aimed to determine genistein content and tyrosinase inhibition activity of 70% ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts of edamame (Glycine max) with an extraction time of 15, 30, and 60 minutes. Extraction was performed using the ultrasonication method. Determination of genistein content was carried out using TLC-densitometry. Furthermore, all samples were tested for their tyrosinase inhibition activity using the spectrophotometric assay. Ethyl acetate extract with 60 min of extraction time exhibited the highest extraction yield (6.414% w/w), the highest genistein content (0.169 ± 0.007% w/w), and the highest tyrosinase inhibition activity (IC50 = 72.420 ± 0.550 µg/mL). It was known that the genistein content of 70% ethanolic and ethyl acetate extracts affected tyrosinase inhibition activity with correlation coefficient (r) values of 0.9973 and 0.9826, respectively. G. max was suggested as a tyrosinase inhibitor agent from natural sources for skin whitening product development due to its isoflavones content, mainly genistein.

Abstract

Diarrhea is defined as a condition where the stool changes or becomes softer or more liquid with a frequency of 3 or 4 times a day. Based on its etiology, diarrhea is caused by several microorganisms, one of which is bacteria. The bacteria that causes diarrhea most often found in Indonesia is Escherichia coli. One type of plant that has the potential as an antibacterial is the Leucas lavandulifolia or Lenglengan plant. Based on ethnopharmaceutical studies, lenglengan leaves are commonly used to treat insomnia, pinworms, coughs with phlegm, epilepsy and digestive disorders. This research was carried out using lenglengan leaf ethanol extract with concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 40%. In this study, phytochemical screening was also carried out using the TLC method. Antibacterial testing was carried out using the well diffusion method. The results obtained were the formation of a clear zone around the well, which indicated activity inhibiting bacterial growth. The results of testing antibacterial activity against E.coli showed that the ethanol extract of langlengan leaves at concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 20% and 40% had antibacterial activity with clear zone results of 1.04 ± 0.33 , 12.71 ± 0.34, 13.90 ± 0.60, 15.23 ± 0.36, and 19.32 ± 0.79 mm.  The results of the phytochemical screening showed that ethanol extract of lenglengan leaves contained alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, terpenoids/steroids and polyphenols. It can be concluded, the ethanol extract of lenglengan leaves has antibacterial activity against E.coli where the greater  sample concentration, the greater  activity.
