Abstract

The butterfly flowers (Clitoria ternatea L.) are used as natural dyes and herbal medicines because they contain metabolites, anthocyanins and antioxidants. The content of these metabolites is influenced by the phase of flower development. This study aims to determine the levels of anthocyanins, antioxidants and metabolites of butterfly pea flowers from different flowering phases. The Butterfly flower collection was taken from the village of Mulyaguna, Teluk Gelam, Ogan Komering Ilir, South Sumatra. The extraction was carried out with 70% ethanol solvent, and determination of the amount of anthocyanin content by spectrophotometry, antioxidant content by DPPH method, and metabolite compounds by GC-MS. Data on anthocyanin and antioxidant content were analyzed with averages and standard deviations, and GC-MS chromatograms were traced for compounds with reference to the PubChem, KEGG, ChEBI, PlantCyc, and Spectrabase websites, which then determined the dominant compound group. The results of the study on blooming butterfly pea flowers found that the antioxidant content was 6.58 ppm, higher than that of bud flowers, which were 2.55 ppm, and wither flowers, which were 1.74 ppm. The anthocyanin content of the blooming butterfly pea flower was 40.33 ppm, the withering flower was 4.36 ppm, and the bud flower was 3.60 ppm. The dominant metabolites were identified as fatty acids, organic acids, aromatics and flavanoids, followed by differences in antioxidant and anthocyanin content in the flowering phase of the butterfly pea flower

Abstract

Leea indica (Burm.f.) Merr, commonly known as Memaye, is a shrub utilized by the Besemah tribe in Lahat Regency, South Sumatra, for treating infectious diseases such as hepatitis and warts, as well as degenerative diseases like liver disorders. This plant's medicinal properties are primarily derived from its roots and fruits, which contain secondary metabolites like alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids. Anatomical studies are crucial to identify specific structures within the plant that may store these metabolite compounds. This research aims to analyze the anatomical structure and distribution of secretory structures in the vegetative organs (leaves, stems, and roots) of Leea indica. Using a descriptive method, the study employed Paraffin and Whole mount techniques to prepare samples for microscopic observation. Results revealed the presence of epidermal tissue, basic tissue, and vascular tissue. Additionally, internal secretory structures, including cavities and two types of idioblast cells, were found to function as storage sites for secondary metabolites. These secretory structures were distributed throughout the leaves, stems, and roots of the plant.
