Abstract

Kleinhovia hospita is a hepatoprotective plant rich in bioactive saponins, yet conventional extraction methods remain inefficient. This study aimed to optimize saponin recovery by comparing Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE) against conventional maceration and assessing the effect of solvent polarity. Saponins were extracted using MAE (15 minutes) and maceration (72 h) with various ethanol concentrations ranging from 0 to 96%. Total Saponin Content (TSC) was quantified colorimetrically using the vanillin-sulfuric acid method. MAE significantly outperformed maceration, attaining a two-fold increase in saponin purity (106.67 and 52.92 mg Diosgenin Equivalent (DE)/g extract, respectively) in a fraction of the time. Solvent analysis revealed a trade-off: whereas 96% ethanol yielded the highest specific purity (133.89 mg DE/g), it resulted in low mass recovery. In contrast, 50% ethanol extracted the highest Total Saponin Yield (TSY) (18.84 mg/g powder), effectively balancing matrix swelling with solubility. MAE utilizing 50% ethanol is identified as the optimal, rapid, and green strategy for the industrial production of standardized K. hospita extracts.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the antibacterial activity potential of fermented dragon fruit peel juice (Hylocereus polyrhizus) fermented using Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) isolated from rice washing water (Beras Mayas). The process begins with the preparation of dragon fruit peel samples, which are washed, peeled, and mashed to obtain the juice. The juice is pasteurized and inoculated with a 5% LAB starter, with the addition of a 10% sugar solution before being incubated for 3, 7, 12, and 17 days at 37ºC. pH measurements were taken during fermentation, showing a significant decrease in pH, reaching the lowest value of 3.76 on day 17. The antibacterial activity was measured using the well-diffusion method with the fermented juice at a concentration of 100%, showing a very strong inhibition zone (>20 mm) against Propionibacterium acnes on day 7. The results indicate that the pH changes during fermentation are closely related to the antibacterial activity
