Abstract

Neutralizing free radicals can use both synthetic and natural antioxidant compounds. Although synthetic antioxidant compounds are more active, but lately the use of synthetic antioxidants is being reduced because they are reported to have carcinogenic side effects. Natural antioxidant compounds found in plants are phenolic groups such as flavonoids, tannins, xanthones, and anthraquinones. This compound is widely found in the genus Cratoxylum where one of the species is pucuk idat (Cratoxylum glaucum). Pucuk idat are often used by people of Bangka as a flavoring dish and are believed to be traditional medicine to facilitate breastfeeding, tighten skin, treat fever, cough, and diarrhea. The increasing of antioxidants needs and lots efficacy of pucuk idat, hence this study aims to determine the antioxidant activity of ethyl acetate extract Cratoxylum glaucum. The antioxidant test in this study used the DPPH (Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl) method and vitamin C as a positive control. The results of this study indicate that the extract of ethyl acetate Cratoxylum glaucum has strong antioxidant activity with value IC50 32,213 μg / mL. Phytochemical content itself includes hydroquinone phenols (tannins), flavonoids, and steroids. This shows that ethyl acetate extract Cratoxylum glaucum can be used as natural antioxidant.

Abstract

Antibacterial tests were carried out using ethanol extract of kelubi meat (Eleidoxa conferta), extraction using the Microwave-Assisted Extraction method with a ratio of 2: 20 for 30 minutes at 60 °C. Antibacterial tests using diffusion methods with concentrations of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%; positive control of 0.005% amoxillin and DMSO negative control. Antibacterial test results showed that the inhibition zone of ethanol extract in E. coli bacteria with a concentration of 20% was in the moderate category, for a concentration of 40% including the strong category while the concentration of 60%, 80% and 100% was very strong. The inhibition zone of ethanol extract for the S. aureus bacterium with a concentration of 20% is included in the strong category while the concentration of 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100% is categorized as very strong. From these results it can be concluded that the inhibitory zone in Stapylococcus aureus bacteria is greater than that of E. coli bacteria.

Abstract

Rukam fruit (Flacourtia rukam) is one of the species spread in Indonesia, specifically Bangka Island. Rukam has a higher phenolic ratio than guava (Psidium guajava). Phenolic compounds have a major role as antioxidants, while antioxidants have the ability to fight free radicals. Therefore a study was conducted to examine the application of secondary metabolites and antioxidant bioactivity of the Flacourtia rukam species using the Microwave Assisted Extraction method. Rukam fruit extract is obtained by using the Microwave Assisted Extraction (MAE) method. While for the antioxidant test using the DPPH method. The test results of antioxidant activity of rukam fruit extract with ethanol solvent were obtained with IC50 value 47.7022 ppm and in rukam fruit extract with acetone solvent IC50 33.1702 ppm obtained using this antioxidant antioxidant powder was very strong.

Abstract

Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is pure coconut oil produced from fresh coconuts and does not contain additional chemicals. VCO has a high lauric acid content which acts as an antibiotic, namely antiviral, antibacterial and antiprotozoal so that VCO can increase the human body's resistance to disease or viruses. Free fatty acid (FFA) levels will significantly affect the quality of VCO. The requirement for maximum fatty acid content in VCO to be suitable for consumption is 0.2%. One of the efforts to reduce the free fatty acid levels of VCO is to use adsorbents such as activated charcoal and bentonite. This study aims to determine the effect of bentonite and activated charcoal of pelawan wood (Tristaniopsis merguensis) enhancers of VCO purity. The results showed that the best reduction in free fatty acids was using bentonite and activated charcoal of wood-furnaced pelawan, which was 0.265, while the best turbidity test result was 0.193.

Abstract

The impact of reactions free radical compounds can cause various health problems such as inflammation, aging, and cancer. Therefore, to avoid damage caused by free radicals, the body needs an important substance, antioxidants. Natural antioxidants are more recommended than synthetic antioxidants because synthetic antioxidants must be in accordance with the prescribed dose because they can cause side effects that are harmful to the body. This study aimed to determine the antioxidant activity of the extract and fraction of the Pelawan (Tristaniopsis merguensis Grifft.) stem extract. Antioxidant testing was carried out using the DPPH method on extracts and fractions of Pelawan stem extract (T. merguensis Grifft.). In addition, qualitative phytochemical testing was also carried out on extracts of the stems of Pelawan (T. merguensis). The results of the three solvent fractions, n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol, were positive for flavonoid and phenolic secondary metabolites. Meanwhile, the antioxidant activity in reducing DPPH radicals in the methanol extract fraction of pelawan stems had a very strong activity with an IC50 value of 36.33 g/mL, while the ethyl acetate and n-hexane extract fractions had a very weak antioxidant activity with an IC50 value of 387.43 μg/mL dan 759.88 μg/mL.
